The app allows you to do some simple Facebook stuff like updating your status, adding friends, sending messages, browsing and uploading photos and more. Unfortunately there’s no Chat feature like on the iPhone.

Feeling a little bit disappointed because they online release app for the E71 and E72 but not the others Nokia S60 v3 phone like N95 (I use a N95 8GB). Some people tried to install it on a E75 and it works, so you might wanna give it a try too.

Download it now at Ovi store.

My previous original home screen.

Recently I found a new application that will replace your standby screen with various customization. Actually it’s out quite some times in Chinese version. It’s actually created by the Chinese and have been ported to English recently.

It added weather, Google search, a big digital clock, and a rotating news feed. The to do notes and memos are still there and it shows the number of to dos you have in your calendar instead of one in the original standby screen. Another thing I didn’t set is that it allows two rows of shortcut instead of one. I don’t really have that many shortcuts, so a row is fine for me. One row that is missing is the Share Online thing that was on the original standby screen, this is a good thing because I don’t use it and I believe many of you don’t too, another is the WLAN scanning, but you can add the WLAN wizard shortcut into the shortcut line. =)

On the original setting, the right key is actually MyFav which shows a list of your frequent used contact. I prefer having Calendar as my right shoutcut key. Pressing the red End Call keys will switch between opened background application. So let’s say you have Gravity on, you hide it, you need not to go can choose from your shortcut but instead, pressing the End Call button brings you straight into unclose app.

For the left shortcut key, it actually opens up a menu which brings to a list of shortcut again. So you actually can get a lot of shortcut with this Voyager Homescreen. One thing that bothers me is that I don’t know why my Start menu is in Chinese, maybe is the install and uninstall of different version causes this. I can read Chinese so it does fine to me. A little big translation on my Start menu, the first *key is Lock Keypad, 1. is News Feeds, 3. is Setting, 3. is More Setting and 4. is Camera.

Clicking on the weather bar brings up this 4 day weather forecast. You need to have a Internet connection for this and the rotating news feed. Setting up the weather was a little bit troublesome at first, I recommend you to use a Wifi or 3G, it just can’t detect the city when I got an EDGE connection.

Another feature that comes with it is vApp which is like a App Store built in with the vHome app. Showing some of the useful free app. This is faster than Ovi, but I didn’t really use it because I have what I want already.

Besides that, you can do smart dialing which is like on the E71. Straight dial a name and the names on the phonebook or app will show on screen. I like this feature a lot.

I also found out that the app has changed my web browser’s home screen, showing a list of shortcuts. That’s pretty good, but if I am allow to change the links of the shortcut will be nice.

One feature that is missing from the Chinese version is the social networking bar, which you can update Facebook and Twitter right from the standby screen, hopefully next update will include this.

Available for Symbian S60 v3 and it’s unsigned. So look way around to install unsigned app in your phone and have fun!

In case you don’t know, I tweet and send a lot of photos to my mobile blogging site, Away From Computer. You can check it out too.

Because that my line is under the SME business plan, it troubled me a bit for to subscription and activation, I have to write in and call them for the activation, it’s pretty troublesome, but afterall, it’s activated and I am on.

I ran some speed test today via mobilespeedtest.com.

The first result I got was pretty shocking and suprised. The speed was rocket high to 8.5mbps. That was freaking cool but I realized that I was running the test through Opera Mini and Opera Mini has some sort of proxy to minimize site loading.

I re-run the test with the normal Symbian browser and the speed was not so satisfying for a 3G connection. It’s supposed to be 3.5G, running on HSPDA, with speed up to 3.6mbps but I didn’t see it goes near to it.

How’s your mobile internet speed? By the way, ignore the ugly keypad of mine, I am a heavy text user.

The built-in calculator in your Nokia Symbian smartphone is very hard to navigate and use right? It takes a lot of click and buttons to get the calculation done. Introducing Calcium which I have it install in my phone and to replace my N95′s calculator, it’s so easy to use and operate. It’s so easy for you to do some basic calculation with the the basic function lies on the joystick.
