Nokia :: Symbian User Tracking And Privacy
Apr 22, 2010
Several mobile operating systems have become a problem when concerned with users' privacy. iPhone apps send information back to media analysis companies, including users' location and personal details; Web OS sends user information and location back to Palm; and Android, well - it's so tied up with Google that you just can't ignore the possible privacy implications.Which leaves us, for a smartphone, with Blackberry and Symbian (considering Maemo isn't available in my area and Bada isn't out yet).Is there any sort of user tracking, data collection or privacy violation in the Symbian platform that you are aware of, by Nokia or by 3rd party software developers?

I downloaded the Symbian Anna and honestly, it's not as great as it's been made out to be!Now I want to revert to the earlier S3 version and am unable to do so! What can be done to regain the old version of the OS?
I tried a Restore to factory settings from the phone, but it just goes back to factory settings with ANNA, how do I change the OS back to the earlier one?

I share my computer (Windows XP) with other people (family) and we use the same user account. One of the users has a Nokia phone (6300) and uses the PC suite to backup contacts and messages. But we can't find a way to restrict access to this data. Every user may access the PC Suite and browse the contacts (bad) and even messages (bad³).Is there a way to set a password for the PC suite?

I have already had 5 different Nokia mobiles but that one feels incomplete. I miss some messaging options like:
- choosing not to save automatically all sent messages in the Sent Items folder
- how to get rid of the Recently Used folder when choosing a contact to whom send a message or at least being able to manually delete contacts in that same folder
- when receiving a message I don't want the name of the contact who has sent it to be shown on the home screen. I just need to be notified of the reception of the message.

I have two questions for people in Nokia before baying this new communicator
1. Are they intend to put in final production of the E7 device the Symbian^4 O.S?
2. If not, will it be possible to upgrade this device from Symbian^3 to Symbian^4 O.S?
That is, I think, the crucial problem in final production because the Symbian^3 is breaking in the everything except in visual part of UI which is a little bit démodé.As I can see on the Symbian page they are rushing to change this with a lot of changes in this part of O.S.it will be very disappointing to me baying such a device and after half a year faced with a new O.S. (specially UI which is most important for users-the name told us this-UI)

When I launch Maps and press the circle button to zoom to my location, it will do so. It finds me within a few hundred feet. After this point, it has no idea where I am. The dot representing me on the maps will vanish, and if I press the locate button again, it will pop somewhere else within a couple of miles of me, and then realize that isn't right, and not change the circle locator button to green, or show a dot on the screen. I can press the locate button again and have this happen continuously.When using Nokia Drive Beta, it will use my correct location to plot a course, but then not follow me at all, so it constantly displays the first direction. It, too, seems to have no clue where I am.My commute takes me through country, city, and suburbs. I've tried placing the phone on the dash, in the cupholder, and just holding it. Previous phones (iPhone, android) have not had this issue over the same commute.

Can anyone suggest a good RSS reader for the E72? I have tried several so far (including Handy RSS and Resco News) but none is fully ok. Either they lack some features (like OPML import or timed updates) or have poor usability. Resco News would be acceptable but it appears to crash a lot on my E72. When updating it just exits, as if the process is killed.The app hasn't been updated in over a year or so.

Even though Symbian command largest market share in smart phone market, its pie is shrinking everyday.
The Android and iPhone market are growing strong. The Blackberry and WinMobile share is dwindling too.Unlike Apple or Google, Nokia is never committed to one handset or one operating system.With Maemo on the market, I think Symbian is now no longer a priority for Nokia.

At the moment I'm on 22.014! I've been checking for updates OTA for a few weeks just for kicks. I checked through Nokia Suite today and there is this 25.007 update. Only problem is it's not the 1MB update I keep reading about! This is a 1.3GB update!Did I miss a couple updates that somehow added up (big time)? Is this normal? Is it safe to update?

"Am afraid i dont know about the N97 native client but you could try the new Symbian Beta (not officially supported for the N97 but some users are reporting they have installed it and it works) at least until the Native client gets released anyway."
Has anyone attempted this with an N97? What issues/success have you encountered? Hoping for some feedback to help me decide if I want to attempt this.
