Feed your Game of Thrones addiction with your Nokia Lumia

Million of fans will be suffering withdrawal symptoms over the next few weeks as the Game of Thrones season three finale is broadcast around the world.

This epic HBO production of power, war, family strife and mythical creatures is based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Fire and Icefantasy novels and has been thrilling global audiences since it first popped onto our TV screens in 2011.

Now, devotees of the show will have to wait at least a year before they can find out what happens next. Until then, you can always satisfy your cravings by trying out these Game of Thrones apps for your Nokia Lumia. They’re unofficial, made for fans, by the fans, and they’re all the better for it.

Game of Thrones DB, £0.79p

If you want to transform your Lumia into a Game of Thrones smartphone, this is the best place to start.

The exhaustive Game of Thrones Database has everything from the latest news, social media, ringtones and screen wallpapers. 

I particularly liked the interactive maps, which were extremely helpful, as even the most avid fan will tell you that staying on top of all plot twists require maximum concentration. 

Easy privacy, coming soon.

I'm working on a new feature that will hopefully make it's way into CM. It's called "Run in Incognito Mode". It's a simple privacy feature designed to help you keep your personal data under control.

I've added a per-application flag which is exposed via a simple API. This flag can be used by content providers to decide if they should return a full or limited dataset. In the implementation I'm working on, I am using the flag to provide these privacy features in the base system:

 * Return empty lists for contacts, calendar, browser history,and messages.
 * GPS will appear to always be disabled to the running application.
 * When an app is running incognito, a quick panel item is displayed in order to turn it off easily.
 * No fine-grained permissions controls as you saw in CM7. It's a single option available under application details.

The API provides a simple isIncognito() call which will tell you if incognito is enabled for the process (or the calling process). Third party applications can honor the feature using this API, or they can choose to display pictures of cats instead of running normally.

We aren't providing ad-blocking or device info (IMEI) spoofing. This feature is designed explictly to help protect your personal data, and it will remain as such.

Brothers in Arms 3

Brothers in Arms is back! We have the first playable demo of Brothers in Arms 3 at E3 and have been dyingggg to tell you about it! First things first, BiA3 will be bigger and better than BiA2!

We can’t give you too many details as its still early in development, but we can tell you that its controls are vastly different from previous games in the franchise. Think of Brothers in Arms 3 as an on-rails shooter but instead of being on a track like in an arcade on-rails shooter, you can swipe from one position to another. So navigating maps is easier & more exciting.

And the slo-mo kill cams are pretty epic! ;) What do you think of the first screenshots from Brothers in Arms 3?:

The Best Asphalt Yet? We Think So!

That’s right, Asphalt 8 is on the way, and let me just say right now… You WON’T be disappointed! Don’t believe me? Does this convince you?:

How ‘bout this?:

Still not convinced? You will be! ;-)

Why am I so confident? There are many, MANY, reasons that I can’t cover in this one blog post. But first and foremost, I think you’ll be happy with the price tag: $0.99. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get into the deets.

Asphalt 8 features 8 all new maps from the Nevada desert to the city streets of London, plus a bonus revamped Monaco track for our A7 fans. What I really love about these new tracks is the impact the environments have on each race. Yes, there is snow. And dust. And rain! Hydroplane through the water-soaked streets of Tokyo after a heavy downpour or slip and slid across frozen tracks in Iceland. And each map features a host of alternate routes to explore and conquer.

See, snow! Isn’t it glorious? And the thing that really sets the tracks, and A8 in general, apart from previous Asphalt games in my opinion is the brand new physics engine. Now you’ll feel like you’re really in control when you slide behind the wheel. Pull death-defying stunts, destroy objects in your path, and catch major air off ramps all thanks to the new physics system!

But, don’t think you’ll be by yourself on these epic tracks. Asphalt 8 will feature both synchronous and asynchronous multiplayer so you can challenge your friends around the clock! A7 fans will be happy to note that Takedown mode is returning and we’ve added two new MP modes in A8: Gate Drift & Infected. In Gate Drift you’re challenged to “drift” through multiple gates. The more you get through, the more points you get. While, Infected is more of a big game of tag. One player starts as “infected” and must hit another car to pass the infection along and regain their health. If they don’t pass the infection to someone within 20 seconds they’re eliminated. Now that’s what I call good old fashion fun!

Asha App Spotlight: Ministry of Sound

While Daft Punk’s global smash hit, Get Lucky, may have introduced a whole new generation of fans to the genre, many other people will have discovered their love of dance music from partying the night away at discos and clubs.

The Ministry of Sound is a legendary London nightclub, which also hosts club nights at venues all over the world.

Dance music fans, whether old or new, will be eager to get theMinistry of Sound (free) app for their Nokia Asha. 

The chief attraction of this app is that it enables you to listen to the Ministry of Sound live radio stream on your Asha, no matter where you are in the world.

With its roster of superstar DJs, listening to the Ministry of Sound on your Asha is a super way of discovering new tunes and keeping yourself in the loop with the latest dance music trends.

One warning though, which is repeated when you open the app, is that the sound quality will be better if you have WiFi or 3G, and if you are using a mobile data connection, then beware of potential costs.

The radio stream is on 24-hours a day and there’s a handy daily schedule available in the app to tell you which show is currently playing and what’s coming up.

As well as listening to the radio stream, this app is great for the latest news and interviews with DJs and artists.

Plus, if all that music is getting you in the mood to attend one of the Ministry of Sound club nights for yourself, there’s an events listing as well.

Nokia Lumia 920 images lights up London gallery for ONE Campaign

Evocative images inspired by protest songs, many taken with Nokia Lumia 920 smartphones are being projected onto the exterior of the Tate Modern art gallery in London.

This event, on the evenings of 11-13 June, marks Nokia’s new partnership with the ONE Campaign, which works to eradicate extreme poverty around the world.

Prominent photojournalists, bloggers, amateur photographers and celebrities have taken the special images that are being projected onto the Tate Modern.

We’ve got a selection of the images here:

agit8

Alongside the Tate Modern projections, a new music-based campaign, agit8, is being launched to showcase the progress that has been made against poverty, and to amplify calls for further action.

Nokia is helping to spread word of the campaign by capturing images from around the world. People are being encouraged to share images, stories and experiences that support the theme of ‘Progress through protest.’

The images are available to view and can be shared on Twitter using#nokiaxONECampaign or uploaded to Nokia’s official Facebookpage.

The ONE Campaign says that extreme poverty has been halved around the world in the last 20 years and it could be virtually eliminated altogether by 2030 – if we act now.

The agit8 campaign features new video recordings of classic protest songs and impromptu live performances. A new film will also be projected on the iconic façade of the Tate Modern.

Artists taking part in agit8, include Ed Sheeran, Mumford and Sons, Elvis Costello, Angelique Kidjo, Rokia Traore, Tom Morello and Macklemore.

Exclusive videos of their performances, plus beautiful images that reflect the power of the protest song, are available atone.org/protestsongs.

How Nokia Music can turn you into a new music maestro

Ever feel like you’re drowning in a tsunami of new music? Well, now it’s time to turn on, tune in and rock out—all with the help of your Nokia smartphone! Nokia Music is an interactive, intuitive and, most importantly, free service with more than 24 million tracks for Nokia Lumia and Asha customers; it’s there to help you keep abreast of the ever-expanding and always exciting world of up-and-coming (and classic!) tunes. With turntables of fresh tracks at your fingertips, you’ll soon be able to give the professional DJs a run for their money…

Makes you a mix master

The killer attraction has to be Nokia Mix Radio—a smartphone music streaming service that offers you access to millions of songs without having to sign up, sign in, or listen to endless, disruptive adverts between tracks. When you click through to Mix Radio, just select your preferred genre—indie, jazz, country, spoken-word comedy, chart, rock, just to name a few—and you get to listen to a free mix-tape that’s been especially compiled for Nokia listeners.

Keeps on discovering

Bristol Musicologists Jethro Borthwick, Mark Lampo and Nick Pointon are the brains behind most of the mixes, and these data-crunching genuises, and their support team, are keen to make sure Nokia customers get a satisfying musical experience that’s both global and locally oriented, with artists and tracks sourced from all around the world. The mixes are continually updated, and they’re a great way to discover new music.

Fires your creativity 

If you want a slightly more personalised experience, you can Create a Mix by selecting three artists and letting the virtual DJ tailor a totally new playlist based on those choices. And if you like what you hear, you can download up to four mixes at a time to your handset to listen to offline any time you like, so you don’t have to worry about WiFi connections and data allowances—and none of it will cost you a penny!

Puts you in store for more

There’s a regular music Store, too, of course, in case you fall in love with the latest chart-topper and want to feast your ears on more; simply click through and use your Nokia account to purchase individual tracks or the whole album. While you’re in the Store, you can play samples from any song, and meanwhile take note of all the quick info you’ll need to show off your advanced musical knowledge (artist, genre, label and release date).

 Tells you all you need to know

Click on the artist’s name, and you’ll get a flood of useful trivia: not only convenient lists of all their albums, singles, most popular tracks and related artists, but a bio and image gallery as well, courtesy of Wikipedia, not to mention a handy Artist Mix, plus a list telling you which Mix Radio playlists that currently feature that artist. Back to the tune you’re actually listening to, though: scroll right and you get another list—this time, other music recommended to you based on the tune you’ve navigated from. Talk about comprehensive…

Gets you to gigs

So, now you’ve heard the single and downloaded the album—but no respectable music junkie would call themselves a true fan unless they’ve seen the band live. Not a problem: with Nokia Music’s Gig Finder, your smartphone can search for local live music listings based on your GPS location. Once you’ve found a kick-ass concert, you can pinpoint the venue using HERE Maps, get directions, buy tickets, check out what else is happening at that venue, and, in case this gig has sold out, you can see where else that band or act is playing. Phew! A one-stop-shop for gig-goers.

Gives you something extra special

Finally, if that isn’t all enough, for a teeny monthly subscription fee (€3.99/$3.99), you can access Nokia Music+, which is an enhanced version of all the above. It lets you skip unlimited tracks in the Mixes (as opposed to the free version’s six skips an hour), download as many Mixes as you can fit on your phone, listen at a higher quality, and see the lyrics to your favourite songs, karaoke-style, on your smartphone’s screen.

With all this combined, you’ll be a new music maestro before you can say top tune. And if you’ve already been using these brilliant features, we’d love to hear what new music gems you’ve unearthed so far.

The study J'son & Partners Consulting: «Mobile messengers cannibalize SMS?"

The company J'son & Partners Consulting presented the findings of his study: "Mobile messengers cannibalize SMS?», Noting that MIM (Mobile Instant Messaging, instant messaging on mobile devices) - messaging service that allows you to send and receive text messages on mobile devices in real time. As the communication channel used mobile internet access (3G, 4G, Wi-Fi). Typically, service MIM support function such as a subscriber status (Presence).

Estimated to Informa Telecoms & Media revenue from MIM has made in 2011 of $ 5.9 billion, or about 4% of the revenue from all types of mobile messages (SMS, MMS, E-mail, IM), and the global traffic MIM (operators and OTT- ISPs) - 1.6 trillion messages corresponding 17% of all mobile communications year. Number of posts MIM in 2012 is estimated at 2.2 trillion, accounting for 20% of all mobile communications.

To prevent or reduce the risk of falling incomes from traditional SMS-services due to the use of mobile services OTT instant messages, operators are using different strategies: self-introduction of MIM-service, reducing the attractiveness of the MIM-use of third-party services by changing the charging of data services, the creation of industry-wide projects and initiatives for the introduction of mobile IP-based services messages, block or ban the use of their subscribers OTT services.

As of March 2013, the global SMS remains a core service, among other types of mobile messages (MMS, E-mail, IM). Traditional short message service demand, shows a positive trend of revenue and traffic in the world.

In general, the level of substitution of traditional SMS services MIM will depend on a number of factors, such as the penetration of broadband mobile internet and smart phones, as well as on the chosen product strategy and pricing of mobile operators for services, particularly in the service of SMS and mobile Internet access.
