Nokia Lumia 800 gets two new software updates
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
Two software updates are being pushed out to owners of the Nokia Lumia 800. First, there’s a battery related software update that fixes issues that several Lumia 800 units have been experiencing. It’s the second part of a two part software update that Nokia promised they’d roll out back in late November. We’re impressed that Nokia actually managed to stick to their word and release these updates on time. As for the second software update, it’s related to Windows Phone. Microsoft recently announced Windows Phone 7.5 Mango build 8107 and it fixes some issues relating to syncing with Google’s email service, issues with the on screen keyboard disappearing at seemingly random times, and something...

Nokia Lumia 800 receiving second battery update over next two weeks
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
Nokia's second Lumia 800 battery update is rolling out over the next two weeks, the company revealed today. The Finnish handset maker originally promised a second update to resolve some battery issues on its flagship Windows Phone, identified late last year. Some Lumia 800 owners complained that they were unable to access the full battery capacity of the device, and Nokia confirmed the problem in December after issuing an original software update to address separate charging issues.

Nokia pressured by mobile carriers to cut Lumia prices
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
All the way over the pond in the UK there’s pressure being pushed down on Nokia to lower the price of the Lumia line, specifically the Lumia 710 which launches there in the next few weeks, as its first devices with Windows Phone have, perhaps, not performed as well as they’d liked. This could be seen as the exact opposite of what we’ve seen with Apple and their ultra high command over carriers working with the iPhone since its inception. Nokia has held more than a few discussions with UK operators on what it’ll do with the Lumia 710 as is launches in the market there, this perhaps reflecting what’s happened in the USA.

Nokia posts details on Nokia Lumia 800 firmware update
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
The update will not be delivered to every Lumia 800 simultaneously, but rather will be staggered over the next two weeks through Microsoft’s standard update process. This helps each owner gets the update without any hitches. Around half of owners will get the update in the next seven days, with the remainder over the following seven days.
Your Nokia Lumia smartphone will automatically check for updates from time to time, and you’ll get a message on the phone when it is ready.
As previously, the update will be delivered using the Microsoft Zune software (or Windows Phone 7 Connector if you have a Mac).
Once you’ve received the update message, attach your phone to your computer using the USB c...

Nokia Lumia 800 takes off...and lands
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
We have seen very creative ways to advertise a smartphone, but in India, Nokia might have started something that we could see spreading around the globe. To promote the Nokia Lumia 800 in India, the manufacturer painted the name and colors of the device on the side of an Indian Airlines Jet Airways plane. Of course, we don't expect too many people to view the ad while the plane is in flight. However, with the trend lately to leave passengers sitting on the tarmac for hours without Air Conditioning, food or a usable bathroom, this captive audience will get to look at the ad while waiting to take off.
Even better for Nokia, they can honestly say that the Nokia Lumia 800 is taking off. And even...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
Nokia has announced that the forthcoming software update for the Lumia 800 that is due to arrive early next year will include a fix for recent battery life issues cited by users. This is the second software update issued for the Lumia 800, with the first one being distributed earlier this month. Users have reported that the Lumia 800 is reporting less battery life than it should be, and Nokia confirms that this is indeed the case.

Also coming with the update are more performance enhancements for the Lumia 800. Nokia says the update is on track for an early 2012 releas...

Nokia Lumia 800 may get DLNA support
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
It's been done by other manufacturers and it seems likely that Nokia will be doing it too: bringing DLNA support to the Nokia Lumia 800 via an app from the Windows Phone Marketplace. This is still a rumor at this point, and possibly not even a very well sourced rumor, but still one that seems pretty believable.
DLNA is one of the top notch features for electronics these days. It is really just a compatibility standard set forth by the Digital Living Network Alliance, so all of your media-filled devices can play well together on your home network. This means being able to share music or video across your computer, mobile devices, TV and stereo. Luckily, even if a device doesn't come with the...

Nokia Lumia 800 also a Vodafone Netherlands best seller
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
We know the Nokia Lumia 800 is one of the best sellers on KPN, the largest Dutch network, but MyNokiaBlog reports the same is true at Vodafone Netherlands also, where it shares the lime light with such luminaries as the Samsung Galaxy S 2, HTC Sensation and iPhone 4.
An IDC analyst recently predicted only 380,000 Nokia Lumia 800’s would be sold over the 6 weeks it has been available. Considering the millions of handsets sold each quarter in Europe that seems a pretty low estimate for a best selling handset.

Nokia Lumia 800 is starting to get its very first firmware update
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesNOKIALumia 800
Following through on a promise made back towards the end of last month, the first firmware update for the Nokia Lumia 800 is starting to roll out as we speak – bringing along some much needed fixes and tweaks to improve the high status Windows Phone.
So far, the update is being pushed out in countries where the handset is made available, and carries along quite a few performance and usability enhancements. However, it’s not clearly known if it directly addresses the handset’s power efficiency, which has plagued some owners with erratic battery life. Instead, the changelog for the firmware update mentions it offering the following:
