5800 Compatible Apps

[roberth]

Thought it would be a good idea to make a list of all the applications
that are running on the S60 5th edition correctly
so far this is what ive got:

All Epocware applications (Handy Clock, Handy Shell, Handy Weather, etc...)

JoikuSpot - 5800 version
Skype: Java (so-so)
Worldmate: - 5800 version
IM+: - 5800 version
Geotagging: - s60v3 (okay but does not autostart)
Gizmo5: - s60v3 (java based but seems to work)
SMSChat: - 5800 version (beta but works okay)
Dr. Jukka: - 5800 version (updated for S60 5th on Jan 18th)
FriendView: s60v3 (works but behaves strangely)

Gypsii (comes in Downloads)
Opera Mini (seems to work sort of)
Audible Player (Java and works ok)
Google Maps - 5800 (EXCELLENT)
Quick Office (DOWNLOADS Bandits, but the stuff works)
Qik Capture (works but I do not use it)
Gmail (works as advertised)
Handwriting Cal (works but does anyone really care)
Adobe Reader (purchased a license and it works)
LCG Jukebox (works but is not developed for the touch screen)
PhoNetInfo (works for the most part)
Handy Taskman (I am using the s60v3 version and it works but....)
Sudoku Master - 5800 version


Update 10/1/09

Mobbler for Last.FM (Updated twice since the release of the 5800. They're on top of it, for sure.)
Guardian (Works brilliantly, fantastic app if you're worried about having your hot new Nokia stolen, or if you lose things.)
Profimail (works, but LCG really needs to update for touch. Get ready to pull out your stylus...
TextQuick (works great already, and the developer is planning on updating the interface for touch. I DEFINITELY recommend this app, especially if you only text a few people but have hundreds of contacts like myself.)
HandyShell (Mentioned above as "All Epocware"- but I want to specially note this one. I didn't care for it at all on S60v3 devices, but it absolutely makes sense on the 5800. The active standby screen is an incredible waste of real estate. If it's not on your 5800, grab the trial *RIGHT NOW*.)


UPDATE 26/01/2009

MSN WINDOWS LIVE MESSENGER(5th edition version-good)

RapidShare: Easy Filehosting


UPDATE 18/1/2009

DrJukka Apps-

Fake Messages v0.55
Theme Scheduler v0.55
Profile Scheduler v0.55

YBrowser is working for me- though the dev says he's working this week to update that as well. Dr Jukka's apps are unsigned.



Please add to the list!

[Mr G]

Good idea, i'll move this right now.

Good thinking RobertH... Stuck! :)

Cheers, roberth. There's a thread elsewhere that I've been following, but the compatible apps are scattered through about ten pages and inane discussion. There's no actual list going- just people saying what works and what doesn't work in each post. It's really quite a mess, unfortunately.

If anyone has anything to add to this list, post it and I'll update the main list in the original post.

Pseudo, can you also fix the section's name - "Other HandSets" ?

[pseudofinn]

Wait- what is the request?

EDIT- Ah! I see, it's correct up above, but the heading on the main page is wrong. Oops! We'll fix it, thanks. :-)

Mobile paint: S60 5th Edition: Mobile Paint Example

Can save as jpgs. You only need to install one of the sis files.

[demowayne]

BEWARE, the link for the MSN download is wrong.

Not only that but many of the links to the download on other sites and blogs are wrong too, some link to the 3rd edition version and others link to slick.

I did eventually find the version for 5th edition but it is a Chinese version and although works fine and in English, the 'home' page, add along the bottom and pre-installed groups are in Chinese. I also cant work out how to delete the groups.

It's also worth mentioning that if you install the 3rd edition you then cant remove it and have to resort to manually deleting the hidden files.

[Bartmanekul]

Can you explain which ones are wrong (and why) so I can take them off if needs be?

I think some of them are supposed to be for 3rd edition, its just that they work in some ways, even if not very well.

It would really help with a comprehensive list, with the following:

App name

Brief description of what it does.

Which version its meant for.

How well it works.

Download link.


That way, people who look at this page (and its a LOT more than just the regulars here, check the views) will know exactly what they are getting. I'll help as soon as I get my 5800, but thats not for a while yet.
