Qt is cross-platform, and that means that you can use the code from one single code-base and rebuild for all supported platforms.ĭevelopment of Qt apps for Symbian phones is undertaken easily using the Qt SDK.

On a side note, a new firmware update for Nokia N8 has just been spotted in Spain at Navifrim. There’s more to it as Nokia’s Mattia Fiorin also confirmed that the N8 will also receive the upcoming FP2 update, which has yet to be officially announced. Nokia 701 and 700 received a bump in speed when their CPUs where overclocked from 1GHz to 1.3 GHz. Obviously, this is not the first time that Nokia does this overclocking trick. We’re not sure what this “minimal overclock” would mean for N8’s CPU, but if it does make the smartphone run faster with FP1 on-board, then that’s good news for Nokia N8 owners.

In fact, it appears that the Finnish company plans to make a minor overclock to the smartphone’s processor in order to successfully enable all the FP1 features without losing on the performance and stability side. That’s because Nokia N8’s 680 MHz ARM 11 CPU’s processing power has already been stretched out to its limits and would not cope well with the full version of FP1. Moreover, it is said that the update will be specially tailored to match Nokia N8’s requirements, which means it will be smaller than the standard FP1. During the official launch of Nokia 808 PureView and Lumia 900 in Italy, the company’s Product Manager Mattia Fiorin told Nokialino that FP1 would soon be available for the N8.Īccording to Nokia’s official, FP1 will bring the latest Nokia Browser 8.2, along with a new version of Social app. However, the update is expected to be pushed to all Nokia N8 units pretty soon. For the time being, Nokia 808 PureView is the only smartphone that comes with Belle FP1 out of the box. It looks like Belle FP1 and FP2 major updates will come to Nokia N8 as well.
