Nokia has released an update to MeeGo-N9 smartphone
by admin ·
Announced last year smartphone Nokia N9 did not become particularly popular because of the limited edition products and the failure to further develop the platform. Nevertheless, the company introduced an updated version of the software, called MeeGo PR1.3.
Although it is only recently, after major layoffs, the company circulated rumors that the update MeeGo will be lost, especially since it is the only smartphone on the OS. It seems that despite all the internal problems of Nokia, MeeGo team is still working, at least for now. And, perhaps, is working on updating the PR1.4.
Nokia 1000 promises improvements in the operating system on both its performance and functionality. For example, there is support for video calls, Google Talk, the ability to easily organize folders by moving one icon to another, improved application “Camera” (continuous shooting), and update the navigation software.
You can also upload photos, videos and documents to the Dropbox built-in OS, Twitter and Facebook notifications are now available on-screen events, improved web surfing history, there is support for MS Office documents 2010 and DLNA, redesigned e-mail client (message threads) and the function copy / paste for documents and Web pages. There are a number of other upgrades and innovations, which Nokia does not apply.Improved OS stability, improved quality of video decoding, corrects problems with the NFC, increased volume, etc.
Update version number v40.2012.21-3.001.19, it is 204,8 MB. Update is installed over the air (OTA). Along with the PR1.3 released a new client Nokia Suite 3.5.21 Beta, which allows to install the update via PC. Nokia plans to distribute it around the world in the coming weeks.
In light of statements by Chairman of the Board of Directors of Nokia Risto Siilasmaa (Risto Siilasmaa) the presence of a Nokia «Plan B” in case of failure of WP8, continuing work on the MeeGo suggests that the revival of the OS, the open source Linux-based can be one of the options such a plan.
