Nokia N8 - Social Network

 
Nokia N8 in my hand is almost 3 months now, i always up to date with the latest software update from Nokia Center. Nokia N8 has a built-in Nokia Social Network and the latest Social Network is Version 1.3.143. If you want to check your Social Network version then you have to go to Option ---> About.

This program lets us to sign in in 3 different social network accounts, they are Facebook, Twitter, and Renren. Well, i am only using 2 of them (Facebook and Twitter).


When we want to use it for the first time, we must log-in to the accounts. Well it is a normal process for all of us even if we do it in our laptop or PC. You don't have to be worried because the process of log-in is not too long, just type your e-mail and password like the picture below.


If you want to add more account then go to option ---> add social network
If you want to delete your account then go to option ---> remove social network
Hehehe piece a cake right!!


 After you can successfully log-in to your account, you can use it and update your status everytime you want. There is some "problems", i think, and many of us feel a lil bit disappointed with Nokia Social Network. WHY??? because there is no NOTIFICATION ALERT in this built-in Social Network! For example, if your friend give a comment in your status or like your status, you will never know it. You can not see who like your status. Check the pictures below!


Well, i am hoping in the future Nokia will give a good concern on this matter because many people want to be able to get the notification! :)

Nokia N8 - Homescreen

OKEY... Today is almost 3 months since i got my Nokia N8. I like the smartphone because it has different taste (to me) - Symbian^3 - well it is not flawless but it is not bad either and i am expecting that Nokia will provide us - the N8 Users - with new Software Update! Nokia N8 comes with 3 built-in homescreens and it is manageable, it means you can use all the 3 homescreens or use 1 or 2 and delete the others and you can bring all the deleted homescreens back to your phone, very simple.

I read some articles from forums in internet about N8, i found out that if we use all the homescreen it will drop your battery very fast. Well it is true! to me, i have to recharge my battery at least 2 times a day because not only i am using all the homescreens but also i am using many applications online and offline. Helloooo... i am using a smartphone here and with the support of unlimited data package that is why i want to use all the benefits that it offers in it.

Let's go back to our main issue here... well it is not an issue actually :) . Like i have mention before, i am using all the homescreens and manage all useful widgets in each homescreen based on the need to support my days.

Homescreen #1
Here, i put the basic needs of a smartphone as a phone! It means that i have to put widgets / icons that's showing time, contacts, messages, notifications, etc. I forgot to say that 1 homescreen could consist of 6 widgets. So, in the homescreen #1 i put :
1. Time Widget
2. SPB Weather Widget
3. Favorite Contacts Widget
4. Shortcuts Widget (Shortcuts of Menu, Application, Office and File Manager)
5. Shortcuts Widget (Shortcuts of Contacts, Messaging, Best Smartphoneware of Task Manager and Melon Answering Machine)
6. Notification Widget


Homescreen #2
I am using homescreen #2 to support my work, hobby and my social network :) . So, in the homescreen #2 i put :
1. Shortcuts Widget (Shortcuts of Fring, Nimbuzz, Imichat and Foursquare)
2. Nokia Social Widget
3. E-mail Widget
4. Search Widget
5. Nokia Reader Widget
6. Music Player Widget


Homescreen #3
I like to take pictures with my N8 and i dedicate my last homescreen as a digital frame of my pictures so instead of using widgets in homescreen #3, i would rather to put pictures as the wallpaper so i can see it as a digital frame :) .  I change the picture everyday or everytime i need to.

Well, that's it guys... now you know my N8 homescreens :) , what about your N8 homescreens?
