Looks good to me. The popularity of OVI store has even crossed that Apple App store’s when it was 5 or 10 mnths old. Its maybe because OVI is avalable for a large number of fones being able to access it unlike only iPhone or iPod touch for Apple.
The Ovi Store totaly sucks in free apps, and the paid are too far expensive and shitty. It’s far far away till iphone store. Nokia won’t ever be better now than apple if they continue to move this way.
Im pretty content with ovi store. Im using it for and with my 5800 and i have downloaded and installed around 40 free apps so far. Pretty nice stuff among these
And uuhm.. im from holland, and around here we also apps in dutch available trough Ovi store.. So it might be more than 8 countries that have local content, as stated in this post
one thing I do not understand:
when you download something from Ovi, where goes the (.sis) file?
I check afterwards on the phone memory and memory card but can not find the .sis file.
Someone who knows more …?
@Daweh,
If you go to Menu>Settings>Application Manager>Installation files, you will find all the sis files in there. But when you will try to open the Installation files folder mentiond above, your phone will hang for several minutes, as it tries to read all the sis files in the list. So be ready to be patient if you want to see the list of sis files as it can take more than 5-10 minutes. If you don’t wait enough, and than press the cancel button, and then again hit the menu key i think it goes back to these Installation files folder, so don’t try to open that folder unless you have spare time.
Hello!
I have Nokia 5800.
Under Menu>Settings>Application Manager>
there is three sections:
Installed
Not installed
Install settings
I can’t find any sis files here.
Not such section as you mentioned Installation files
