Are you sure. If it's coming, it would be great but there's no news nothing about this. Who's gonna port it from Maemo to Symbian especially when it's not written using Qt?

afaik you loose some stuff if you do the hard reset method...
*
most things still intact after the hard reset:

1. ovi maps will retain as last version u install (mine was v3.06), maps will be deleted (hard reset will format the E:)
2. ovi store need to be reinstall (no problem)
3. NatGeo/E!/Sosial widget will lost from HS and widget list (Sosial app will remain but with no widget, need to reinstall)
4. tv3/8tv widget remain available
5. all video/audio from original E: will lost...

so after hard reset the things that unable to recover is Natgeo and E! widgets and those video/audio files... nod.gif

Radiance,

As for the first feedback as a ranger, I've only included improvement needed or preferable functions after about a month using the Nokia N8 smartphone (this feedback more like a wishlist).

All these wishes are within the hardware limit, only software portion modification or revamp needed, all can be make into realistic ONLY depend on the WILL of the Nokia Team.


Home Screen User Interface:

01. Vertical scrollable home screen. (home screen will back to TOP position whenever there's a home screen switching)
- Three home screens is good enough but preferable all home screen are vertical scrollable (of course must have limited, example up to 18 widgets space).

02. Last home screen use lock (remember which is the last use home screen)
- Have an option to select to keep or not the last home screen in focus when ever the menu button been click and not just always back to the 1st home screen.

03. Instant user input acknowledgement
- User input have TOP PRIORITY, DIM/blackout the whole screen WHENEVER there's an input detected to prevent user keep on clicking.
- Include an option to enable the haptic feedback although it's in power saver mode.

04. Animation home screen wallpaper
- Can use animation wallpaper.
- Wallpaper have option to auto change with adjustable interval.

05. More accurate battery indicator
- Make the battery indicator more LINEAR in term of the battery life (currently the 7 bars seem like act in exponential).
- Increase to 10 bars indication as every bar represent 10% of the battery life.

06. Include Switch Off in the home screen Profile Selector widget
- Same as when we press the power button.

07. Home screen more customisable
- Home screen widget alignment can be in free form, maybe not totally free form but more in term of smaller alignment grid.
- This will make the N8 home screen more allsome in a creative hand.


Home Screen Widget:

01. Shortcut Widget selectable size (1/2/3/4/5 shortcut icons)
- If possible just have a single Shortcut widget where user can select how many shortcut to use.
- If cannot then give a few different Shortcut widget in the widget list, example: Single Shortcut, Double Shortcut, Triple Shortcut, Four Shortcut & Five Shortcut.

02. Scrollable Shortcut Widget
- A scrollable Shortcut bar just like the Contacts (Favorite) bar.

03. Sosial widget to include back the scrollable arrow key
- Get back the scrollable arrow key to the Sosial widget and maintain current auto scroll function.

04. All the default widget availability download from Ovi Store
- Please include all those factory default widget available as this will help whenever user do a hard reset.

05. New Widgets Manager
- A widgets manager that will have MASTER control over the ALL widgets behaviour ESPECIALLY online/offline.
- All widgets online/offline able to be set seperately (this is important for email widgets)

06. Weather Widget
- Include a default Nokia Weather Widget (since there's already Nokia weather server available within the Ovi Maps)

07. Here & Now Widget
- Include a default Nokia Here & Now Widget (this widget will self update with user set interval, good references at anytime)

08. More widget from Ovi Store
- Increase widget within the store as currently it's still some kind of short in the list.
