Nokia Sues Apple iPhone For Patent Infringement

2009-10-23T15:54:00.004+01:00

Nokia has just announced that it has filed a complaint against Apple with the Federal District Court in Delaware, alleging that Apple's iPhone infringes Nokia patents for cellular-wireless networking and Wi-Fi standards.

Nokia claims that Apple has violated 10 of Nokia's wireless technology patents. The company says the patents "relate to technologies fundamental to making devices," that are compatible with the GSM, UMTS, or 3G WCDMA, and wireless LAN standards. The claims involve cover wireless data, speech coding, security and encryption technologies. Nokia says Apple has been in violation of these patents since the iPhone launched in 2007.

Although the amount of money involved hasn’t been disclosed, CNET News quoted Apple analyst Gene Munster as saying that Nokia would be looking for a royalty payment close to 1-2 per cent ($6-$12) of every iPhone sold. With 34 million iPhones sold to date, that comes to about $204-$408 million in damages.

"The basic principle in the mobile industry is that those companies who contribute in technology development to establish standards create intellectual property, which others then need to compensate for," said Ilkka Rahnasto, Vice President, Legal & Intellectual Property at Nokia. "Apple is also expected to follow this principle. By refusing to agree appropriate terms for Nokia's intellectual property, Apple is attempting to get a free ride on the back of Nokia's innovation."

During the last two decades, Nokia has invested approximately EUR 40 billion in research and development and built one of the wireless industry's strongest and broadest IPR portfolios, with over 10,000 patent families. Nokia is a world leader in the development of GSM technologies and its evolution to UMTS / 3G WCDMA as well as wireless LAN, which is also demonstrated by Nokia's strong patent position in these technologies.

SMS Vulnerability and E90

2009-01-10T18:44:00.004Z

According to the mobile communications expert Tobias Engel, a number of Nokia phones and E90 Communicator among them, are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. Interestingly, no special software is required to exploit this vulnerability. If an attacker knows the text that exploits the vulnerability, she can cause serious damage to your phone. After the attack, the phone does not accept SMS/MMS anymore and the only solution is a hard-reset or in the worst case rewriting the firmware.

JoikuSpot - a Killer App For your E90

2008-09-06T20:15:00.004+01:00

WiFi has become so widespread that we take it for granted. Laptop users (and not only) cannot imagine life without WiFi. After all it gives us so much freedom and frees us from those nasty network cables.

Now imagine that you could turn your Symbian S60 based smartphone into a WiFi Hot Spot. That is exactly what JoikuSpot does.

When I first heard about the application, I didn't really pay much attention to it. Both of my two laptops have built in Bluetooth radio and thus I can use them "easily" with my Nokia E90 Communicator. That is the main reason why most of the users don't consider JoikuSpot an interesting and useful application.

If you have used a laptop coupled with your S60 smartphone to access the Internet via Bluetooth then you may know that this model is not the most reliable. First off, you need to setup the Bluetooth modem, then use it as a dial-up connection. If a connection is dropped, sometimes it is difficult to re-connect and so on. That's when JoikuSpot comes in handy. It allows you to connect your laptop to the Internet in a more practical and familiar way, i.e. the same way that you use it at your workplace, home, etc.

Another considerable advantage that JoikuSpot has over Bluetooth is the connection range. While phones with WiFi radio cannot deliver the same range that a WiFi router can, the range achieved with JoikuSpot will be longer than that achieved with Bluetooth.

JoikuSpot comes in two flavors, light edition (which is free) and premium edition. The light version supports HTTP protocol only and can be used for web browsing only. However, the Premium version delivers full Internet connectivity. The premium version also supports multiple clients. Joiku has a promo and gives a 40% discount. I took advantage of this offer and got it for 15 Euros. Believe me, the application is really worth that price and once you start using it for connecting to the Internet, you will never revert back to Bluetooth anymore.

So what are you waiting for? Download this wonderful application right now.

Google Maps 2.2 on Nokia E90 Communicator

2008-08-06T22:00:00.002+01:00

There is an old saying that if two agree on everything, one of them is not necessary. When it comes to software, I really hate having two applications if they do the same thing. However, with the Google Maps and Nokia Maps that's not the case.

While the applications are somewhat different, they serve the same purpose. Yet, I have them both and more importantly use both of them.

Google has recently released a new 2.2. version of the Google Maps for S60. In this release you will see such cool features as public transport timetables in 60 cities around the world, star ratings for business along with other user-generated content. The overall search speed has increased as well.

As always, you can get the most recent version from www.google.com/gmm.

Nokia Accounts Goes Live... sort of

2008-07-14T15:43:00.003+01:00

The idea of a single login for different online services has been around for a while. While in my opinion, the "famous" Passport from Microsoft is a big failure, unified login is a pretty valid idea within a single company context. We all know that it is possible to login to all Google services with a unified login.

It looks like that Nokia has taken the same path. While there are not many services using Nokia Accounts at the moment, Nokia Chat is already there. So will be Ovi and a number of other Nokia's online services.

If you have not created your Nokia account so far, it's a good time to get one here: https://account.nokia.com/acct/register

E90 Communicator: Black & Sexy

2008-07-13T19:22:00.005+01:00

When I first saw pictures of then just announced Nokia E90 Communicator, I thought that E90 would be one of the ugliest phones. However, when I saw it in a shop window, I immediately fell in love with this phone.

Yesterday I came across a gallery of a black E90 at the Symbian world blog and it looks really awesome.
Don't forget to check out the gallery when you get a chance.

Freeware FTP Client for Nokia E90 Communicator

2008-07-02T08:17:00.004+01:00

FTP is one of the most popular and useful services on the Internet. As a matter of fact, FTP is the fastest and easiest way to upload files to a server. It can be used to exchange files between your computer and your mobile device. Well you know, FTP can be used in all possible ways.

I use FTP for professional purposes and having it on my Nokia E90 Communicator is a must. I already have a number of commercial applications on my Nokia E90 Communicator and you know these applications together can make pretty good money. 20 dollars there, 10 dollars here accrue pretty fast. So, if a freeware software does a decent job, I always (who would not) go for it.

Luckily there is a very good FTP client for all Symbian S60 devices from SIC! Software. The FTP client works pretty well on E90 on the internal screen as well. The software is extremely easy to use, is pretty fast and has demonstrated a decent speeds both in a WLAN/DSL and 3G GRPS networks.

You can download the application from Symbian-Freeware.com.

HSDPA on Nokia E90

2008-06-10T20:40:00.003+01:00

Recently one of the cellular operators in my area has started support for HSDPA.

As you may be aware, HSDPA stands for a High-Speed Downlink Packet Access and it is a third generation (aka 3G) mobile telephony communications protocol in the High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA) family. It is used in Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) networks and has high data transfer speeds. Maximum speed is limited to 14.4 MBit seconds, 3.6 MBit per second being the most widespread speed.

The good news is that Nokia E90 Communicator, as you would expect from a device of this class, supports HSDPA.

Immediately after I heard the news about HSDPA being introduced in my place, I rushed and got a subscription to test the speeds.

I must say the speed was impressive. The only time I get the same web page rendering and file download with my Nokia E90 Communicator is when I use it in a WLAN. I must note that my operator has started offering unlimited data plan at a fixed monthly fee. This opens practically unlimited horizons in using E90 anywhere, anytime. Think VoIP :)

If your operator does not support HSDPA while a competing does, I highly recommend that you consider switching even if your current operator supports 3G.

Nokia E90 Communicator with 2GB Memory

2008-05-30T12:43:00.002+01:00

Yesterday I found a pretty interesting press release on the Internet. The press release states that Consolidated Gulf Co. (CGC), the biggest retailer of mobile phones as well as the largest Telecom and IT solution provider in Qatar, has unveiled an upgraded Nokia E90 Communicator with 2GB memory.

I'm not really sure if this version is officially released by Nokia or is a custom upgrade made by CGC. Anyway, it's really interesting to see the Nokia E90 Communicator with 2GB of internal memory.

You can view the full press release here: http://www.arabianbusiness.com/press_releases/detail/19771

Nokia E90 Firmware Update is Here

2008-05-20T22:32:00.003+01:00

At last, Nokia has released a much-awaited firmware update for its Nokia E90 Communicator. The latest firmware is v210.34.75 and offers a number of very interesting and useful fixes and features.

Probably the most important update is addition of Flash Lite 3 with Flash video support. This means watching YouTube videos directly. So far, so cool.

New 'Set up Internet telephony' shortcut on standby screen.

Quickoffice now comes version 4.1.27.5. There are a number of useful improvements and fixes.

It seems that an overall device speed and stability has been improved as well. At least this is noticeable.

These are what AAS reports so far. I am at the moment downloading the recent version of the software updater, which unfortunately does not support Vista.

I will be backing up my device tomorrow and installing the new firmware.

Unfortunately, some people especially with AZERTY keyboards say that they had problems. Mine is a version with AZERTY keyboard as well.

Jabra BT3030 Dog Tag Bluetooth Headset With E90

2008-05-17T09:42:00.003+01:00

A stereo bluetooth headset BT3030 from Jabra has been around for a while. It appeared around my place a while ago and I liked it immediately.

As you can see from the picture, the headset features a dog-tag design. Regarding the design, many reviews on the Internet say that "You're either going to love it or hate it, there's really no middle ground on this one.". Personally I loved it. I like everything that is not standard, boring and this headset is one of such things.

The BT3030 comes with a metal chain lanyard to wear the device around your neck and to me this is the way to wear the device. Alternatively, you can use the clothes clip, which is found in the box.

The headset is covered with metal and looks really cool. According to the manufacturer, the device is not fully waterproof but can easily survive a rain for example or a splash of water. Indeed, the headset looks really cool.

The front side features a number of buttons to control the playback, volume. A button to answer and reject phone calls is present as well.

I must say that the designers of this device have given a good thought to usability. The buttons are backlit with strong blue color, so it's really easy to use the device in a complete darkness.

Also, the headset gives different signals with lights. For example, the light changes according to the battery level. So you know when it's time to charge the headset. You can charge the headset either with the adaptor that comes in the box or with your PC. Yes, I love when a device has a support for charging via PC. As you may have guessed, the device has a mini USB port.

Unfortunately, I was not able to control the Nokia E90 Communicator's music player with this headset. I tried using LCG Jukebox and CorePlayer but still no success. As far as I know, Nokia E90 Communicator does support AVRCP - a Bluetooth profile that allows controlling of media device.

Receiving and rejecting calls worked just as advertised. As soon as the phone rang, the music stopped. Just a couple of seconds after you finish the conversation and the music resumes.

Another good thing about this headset is that you can use standard 3.5mm headphones with it. The one that comes in the box is really good.

The overall sound quality is very good, above average I would say. The bottom line is that this is a really cool tiny gadget and I wish I could solve this problem with controlling the music.

Skype on Nokia E90 Communicator

2008-05-01T13:44:00.002+01:00

Recently Skype has released a beta version of an official Skype client for Java phones. The application is available for different mobile phones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola and Samsung. By the way, Nick has already written about using Skype on Sony Ericsson in his SE Blog. So if you happen to be a Sony Ericsson user, make sure to check out his post.

When you go to the download section, you won't see Nokia E90 listed there. However, let's not forget that any application that can run on say Nokia N95, can be used on E90 Communicator as well. So, I gave it a try and it worked fine.

There is one caveat though and it is associated with using the internal QWERTY keyboard. In the chatting window you cannot directly type text with the internal QWERTY keyboard. Rather, it opens in a new Java windows. This is a bit frustrating but in all other aspects the software works fine.

I have tried all applications for using with Skype. I had purchased IM For Skype from Shapeservices and have been using it for a couple of months and I must say the application works fine. Also, the application from Shapeservices is a native Symbian application, which is a big plus. However, having an application from Skype is a totally different thing. So, I highly recommend to download the N95 version and use it on your E90 Communicator.

I will be making some screen-shots on my E90 and will do a follow-up post shortly.

Please follow this link to download the application: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/mobile/

Turn Your Communicator into a Webcam

2008-04-21T08:43:00.004+01:00

Many laptops come with built-in webcams nowadays. My old Sony Vaio had one and I was pretty happy with it. However, I have recently changed to a more powerful HP 8710w mobile workstation laptop. Unfortunately, this laptop does not have a built-in webcam.

I use the webcam occasionally and carrying a separate webcam is not very practical. Because of this, I decided to find a solution that would turn my mobile phone into a webcam. Luckily, there are at least two solutions that will get the job done. The first one is Mobiola Webcam and the other is WWIGO. The former is a commercial application and the later is a free application (WWIGO is at a beta stage for now, but works just fine).

Those applications install a webcam driver in Windows and as a result you can use both solutions in instant messaging software like Skype, MSN or Yahoo Messenger.

If you are up to spending $20 on this type of software, you may wish to go for Mobiola Webcam. If you'd rather use a freeware product, then WWIGO is the way to go.

New Nokia E90 Firmware or An April Fool?

2008-04-03T18:28:00.002+01:00

AllAboutSymbian.com is reporting that a new firmware update for Nokia E90 Communicator is available. Further, according to the web site, the update is available for non-branded devices only.

Mine is non-branded E90 and when I ran the NSU, it just said that my firmware was up-to-date. I did update to 7.40.1.2 just two days ago and I thought I already had this new firmware but had not noticed it. But oops, when I ran the Flash player it's the same old 2.0.

Updates speculated by AAS are very nice and interesting. It seems that this is just a beta version of the update and not a public release. Anyway, I hope to see Nokia releasing this update soon.

Sneak Peek At Some Really Cool Stuff For Your Nokia

2008-04-03T07:48:00.003+01:00

Nokia is not only the worlds one of the largest mobile phone manufacturers, but it an innovative software developer, albeit a specialized. Of course, Nokia specializes in software related to mobile phones and the communication industry.

It is a common practice for large companies to maintain special labs. Microsoft has such a lab, and the Google Lab is famous for producing innovative applications and services. The software produced by such labs usually comes as a beta version. A beta version means that the software has passed internal testing and is now ready to be released outside the organization that develops the software. Applications at this stage are very close to what they will be when finally released. However, beta level software can contain some known issues, as well as other unknown bugs. Usually, it's not dangerous to use beta applications.

Unfortunately, many of those applications always stay at a beta stage until they are finally discontinued. However, recently, with the advent of the Web the time span for betas has increased considerably. A clear example is the Google Mail.

Let's get back to Nokia's Beta Labs. They already offer such innovative applications as a web server for your mobile phone, Nokia Maps 2.0, Nokia PC Phone, Nokia Audiobooks and many more. The web site is organized conveniently. You can quickly see if a particular application is compatible with your device and download the application.

So, what are you waiting for? Check out the Nokia Beta Labs at http://www.nokia.com/betalabs.

8 GB SDHC Cards in Nokia E90 Communicator

2008-03-27T19:57:00.003Z

Many people ask if 8 GB Micro SDHC cards work in Nokia E90 communicator. The good news is that the 8 GB HC memory cards work just fine.

I bought mine today and threw old 2 GB card into the Sansa media player.

Nokia E90 Communicator for 52,000 Euros

2008-03-19T11:27:00.002Z

Peter Aloisson is an Austrian designer-jeweller who is famous for turning an ordinary gadget into a masterpiece of art and jewellery. Since 1998 he has been releasing diamond-encrusted mobile phones. As for prices, they usually start from 30 grands. The 1.3 million dollar diamond phone was Mr. Aloisson's craft as well.

Can you guess what is Mr. Aloisson's one of the latest works? Yes, you guessed correctly. It is Nokia E90 Communicator made of solid 18 carat white gold, encrusted with a total of 408 perfectly handset diamonds at whopping 9.86 cts weight.

Hmm, price price price. I don't think I shall be getting this baby anytime soon and will have to stay satisfied with my regular E90. But if you are interested, the device costs 52,000 euros and you can find it here. If you pay this much, I don't think it shall be a problem for you to pay the taxes as the price is net, excluding VAT and other applicable taxes.

Official Carrying Case for Nokia E90 Communicator

2008-03-11T16:14:00.004Z

I've been using Nokia E90 Communicator since early September 2007. The device is great and it is one of the most lovely gadgets that I've ever owned.

However, there had been only one discomfort associated with owning E90. No, no. Mine has not experienced any mic or speaker trouble and there is no scratch on the screen left by the keyboard. The discomfort that I've just mentioned was associated with no carrying case availability. But this had been a problem. Luckily, Nokia has released a Carrying Case CP-285, specially designed for Nokia E90 Communicator.

The CP-285 Carrying Case is made from high quality polyurethane and helps protect your Communicator while giving you access to its buttons, ports, and speakers.

The accessory has been released in Europe. Unfortunately, I have no information on its availability in the USA. I've noticed some folks asking on the expansys.com forums when the accessory would be available, with no response yet.

Nokia E90 Successor Confirmed. The Changes Are Minimal

2008-02-25T08:32:00.002Z

The present of slightly modified Nokia E90 has been spotted at WMC. It looks like that Nokia will be releasing the new E90 in black color. The technical specifications remain practically the same. The changes are mainly in the build area and of course fixing some of the problems present in the current model. It can be said that the keyboard of the modified E90 is different.

While my device's screen has not suffered from scratches caused by the keyboard, many users have reported this problem. Also, the speaker and microphone of E90 had many faults. Mine works fine, but many users have been complaining on noise during calls. It is not known whether this issue is fixed or not in the modified version. Most likely Nokia has fixed it.

Getting VoIP Working On E90 and Other Nokia S60 Phones

2008-02-11T08:26:00.000Z

Configuring VoIP on Nokia phones can be a real nightmare. Moreover, some VoIP services work just fine, with some you may get a partly working solution (i.e. one-way audio), yet with others you can't even register with the service. Registration Failed is a painfully known message for Nokia phone users.

Occasionally, on various forums, you can see messages posted by disappointed users and some posts are really rude. But I can understand these people. When you pay a grand for a phone and you can't even register with a service provider, that is not good. For some people, support of VoIP becomes a key feature when making decision which phone to buy. For example, when I first got Nokia E61, I must admit, I bought it because I hoped to use it as a VoIP phone. Nokia E90 Communicator is a great device and it is very pity when you are not able to use it with your VoIP services provider.

But I have good news! This post will help you to get ANY VoIP service working on your Nokia S60 phone. No kidding. Just read carefully and then follow the instructions and let the magic happen.

I mainly use two VoIP services: Stanaphone and SipGate. I was able to get SipGate working both on E61 and on E90 right away without any problems. However, no matter what I did, I could not get Stanaphone working. I created accounts with almost every VoIP provider on the Internet from GizmoProject to Voxalot to PBXES.org to test and troubleshoot this problem.

If you configure SIP Settings in your phone according to the provider's details, most of the services simply DON'T WORK! Frustrated users even say that the VoIP feature in Nokia phones is a beta product. However, that is not true. After you get your VoIP service working on your Nokia, it will work smoothly and your Nokia phone will turn into a truly Internet Phone.

What Causes Registration Failures?

Problem Number One - Incorrect REALM Value

When configuring SIP settings, specifying correct REALM is very important. If the REALM used by the service provider is different from what you specify in SIP Settings, registration will fail for sure. With Windows based softphones this is not a problem and because of this, the service providers sometimes may not even publish the REALM or publish incorrectly on their sites. For example, look at the settings that Stanaphone provides on the screen shot below.

As you can see, according to their site, you must specify sip.stanaphone.com as a Domain/Realm or Proxy Server value. Unfortunately, if you specify sip.stanaphone.com in the Realm field in your S60 phone, it won't work. Correct realm is sip.stanaphone.com.

I have tried stanaphone.com and many other values as well. For example, sometimes just "asterisk" works. Why? Because it is a default REALM value in Asterisk - a popular VOIP software that many VoIP providers use. But nothing worked.

The problem is that there are quite many SIP settings and there are so many possible combinations of different settings (like specifying TCP instead of UDP, switching the Security setting on or off, etc) that you cannot get it working by chance.

So, how did I manage to find out a correct realm for Stanaphone? It was not too difficult. I have been able to successfully use the service with X-Lite. So, I switched logging on and then looked up the log file. As you can see on the screen shot below (it's a part of the log), the correct realm is just stanaphone.com.

Problem Number Two - STUN

The problem with VoIP in Nokia phones is associated with how the phone used STUN. As you are well aware, you cannot specify a STUN server in the SIP Settings and that is the problem.

As far as I know, earlier version of the VoIP part in Nokia did not use STUN at all and because of that you could not use the VoIP-enabled Nokia phones with many providers. However, in the latest models STUN is incorporated, but the problem is how the phones uses the STUN server info.

One way that is used in softphones is to make a DNS lookup and that's how Windows softphones do and that is in my opinion how Nokia phones work. As you can see from another part of the log, the default STUN server setting did not work. Now this makes clear why Nokia phones work with some VoIP providers and don't work with others. If the STUN server coincides with the one that Nokia phones try to use, the service works.

Logically, a solution to this problem would be to be able to specify correct setting for STUN. However, as I have already mentioned you cannot configure STUN setting from the SIP Settings section. But, there is a tiny but extremely useful application from Nokia that allows you to change some very internal SIP settings. That is the application that does the magic. So, download it quickly from here http://sw.nokia.com/id/d2d27e6c-bd52-4534-9aa6-19e606b80709/SIP_VoIP_Settings_v1_0_en.zip and install on your phone.

In order to change the STUN settings, you must first create the SIP Settings. Stanaphone settings are shown below:

After you have created the SIP Settings, launch the application. The first screen presents you with 2 choices: VoIP Services and NAT Firewall Settings. Choose NAT Firewall Settings.

Then you will see two choices again: Domain Parameters and IAP parameters. Choose the first.

You should see your VoIP profile there. Choose it.

Finally, you can specify the STUN server there. If you don't know STUN server for your VoIP provider, you can specify this: stunserver.org. This is a publicly available free STUN server. You must also specify the default 3478 port.

On the final screen shot you can see that the Stanaphone profile got registered successfully.

Nokia E90 vs Nokia N810

2008-01-29T12:49:00.000Z

AllAboutSymbian.com has published a short but interesting head-to-head comparison of Nokia E90 and Nokia N810. While there are many similarities between those two devices (huge screens, QWERTY keyboards, GPS navigation), they are quite different.

The main difference is how and who uses E90 and N810. Read more here: http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/features/item/Nokia_E90_vs_Nokia_810_Part_1-Hardware__Communications.php

Nokia Q4-2007 Net Profit Tops 44%

2008-01-26T09:50:00.000Z

A couple of days ago Nokia posted details about Q4 2007 results. From the press release we can see that Q4 net sales were EUR 15.7 billion and the Q4 market share has reached 40%.

Nokia is demonstrating strong performance. You can find detailed financial figures in the press release here : http://www.nokia.com/results/results2007Q4e.pdf

Leaked Nokia E90 Successor?

2008-01-26T09:39:00.000Z

Symbian-Freak is claiming that a user NokiaN95-1 of the Telefon-Treff forum has managed to get photos of the upcoming E90.

I am not sure if this is just a rumour or if there are any real photos of the Communicator's successor and more importantly if there already is a real working version of the new device.

Well, E90 is an almost perfect device. Yes, true it has many problems but those problems are of more technical nature. Most of the problems are associated with factory defects like the mic and speaker problem and keyboard failure. Otherwise, the device is almost fully featured.

What I can wish for the successor is to have even higher resolution of the internal screen. Well, I would not mind a 1024x400 or 1024x600 resolution. Also, making the internal screen touch-sensitive would be great. Finally, throwing in about 8 GB of memory would be nice. And of course eliminating all of the technical and factory defects.
