10 Must Have Applications For The N81
Kirollos Fares | February 1, 2008This post is a little bit off the review, I’m Posting this because alot of people purchase very powerful Nokia handsets, and they don’t ultimately use it.
By installing Symbian applications, The potentials of what your Nseries could do is limitless, This list includes what i believe the 10 must have applications that needs to be installed on your Nokia N81.
Let the countdown begin 
.
10-Google Maps:
Google Maps adds positioning functionality to your Nokia N81, even without hooking it up to a Bluetooth GPS device, With a new service called My Location which enables positioning of the device Via cell towers. the application is able to position the device within meters, and via satellite imagery, your role is to spot where you are within those meters, cool huh?!

9-Flickr Sharing Link:
This is not an application to install on your Nokia N81, In Fact, it is already installed and it requires only activation,.
You can activate Flickr sharing link, by going to Gallery>Images, and from Options, Choose open online service, Then activate either Flickr or Vox, By clicking the centre key.
By activating the share link, instant online sharing of photos functionality is added to your device, after activation, all you need to share a photo online is to choose the photo from Gallery, then Send> Post to web, and it will be online in no time.
Please note that activation requires an account on Flickr, and an Internet connection
8-Opera Mini:
I’m not including Opera Mini, the all famous mobile browser, to dump the S60 Browser, Opera Mini is able to process and show web pages easily and faster than the S60 Browser, So if you’re in a hurry and want to check something real fast, use it, other than that the S60 Browser is highly recommendable.
The application promises to bring the full web to your phone, though this promise isn’t granted in the current version, some basic scripts aren’t loaded, But still it’s a lot faster then the integrated browser. Download NOW
7-Truphone:
Truphone is by far the most famous internet telephony application for S60, Truphone offered free calls to 40 countries for FREE!! till the end of 07, they expanded it till the end of Februrary 08.
Calls from Truphone to Truphone are always free, so if you got two voIP Nokia devices in the family, this could help a lot in reducing your phone bill.
Wait, there’s more, By signing up with truphone, they’ll charge your account with £2/US $2, Great to call your troubled relative that fled to Madagascar and say hey!

This application adds landscape mode to your Nokia N81, A function that should have been integrated in the Firmware, The application is unsigned, and you have to sign it yourself, A guide on how to sign symbian applications is found here. Download NOW
If you’re counting, The above applications adds positioning, instant photo sharing, faster web browsing, free and voIP calls, IM, RSS Reading, Wireless music controlling, Reading news, watching youtube and landscape mode functionality to your N81, Cool, huh

The above list works for any S60V3 Device, not just the N81/N81 8GB.
for me just emtube and landscapepro are essential… probably just me
i use cutekeys a lot, also mobireader and officesuite 
hello,why is emtube n0t supported in my n81?
But when it was sent to me by bluetooth fr0m an n95 phone it worked properly until I saved a file and opened it..
Can you help?
Well, that’s werid
Have you tried unzipping it first?
Have you tried to install it directly from Nokia PC Suite, by hooking up your device to your PC, and the device will show up in Nokia PC Suite, After it shows up, double click the unzipped app, and it’ll ask you to send it to your phone.
hey…. where u get the n81 landscapepro?? i download the app from ur page.. but i cant sign in using open sign…… can u sign this application for me???
@eyenul
Landscape Pro is unsigned, you’ll have to sign it
But unfortunately, due to the new limitations by Symbian Signed, the application is literally unsignable!
