is nokia X3-02 an android phone?

Q. my friend bought it, and she said it was one while im not sure.... is it an android phone or not?

A. No Nokia phones runs on Android. Don't expect any Android phones from them. Nokia phones only run on Symbian, MeeGo and Windows Phone.

Also, the Nokia X3-02 is not a smartphone, therefore does not run on any of those OS at all. Because the X3-02 is a feature phone, it just runs on S40 which can't really do a lot in comparison to those other OS listed above.


Changing from an Android phone to an iPhone 3GS?
Q. Okay, so At the moment, I have an Android phone (LG GW620) and I have recently been given a 3GS (Off a family member that upgraded).
The iPhone 3GS is on O2.
At the moment, I'm on a £10 a month contract for T-Mobile.
I get Unlimited Texts and Internet usage, and 100 minutes.

Could I unlock the iPhone and use the same Sim?
Or do I have to have a special iPhone tariff?

So would it be easier to just pay off my current contract, and get a SIM-ONLY iPhone Sim card?

A. I have recently transfered from android to iphone 3gs.. My mum gave me her 3GS from vodafone.. I am also on t-mobile! SO I KNOW WHAT TO DO! As we unlocked it as i am now a happy Iphone 3GS user on T-mobile with my android in the bin...

You need to call 02 and ask for them to unlock the Iphone.. you may need a valid 02 Sim in the iphone (i did for vodafone) You need to give the 02 advisor your IMEI code from your iphone... to get this goto phone - Keypad - type in *#06# it will give you the code...

It took vodafone about 2 days to unlock the iphone for me...
Once unlocked i had to restore my iphone with itunes...
Then you can just insert the T-mobile Pay as you go/OR T-mobile contract SIM card into your iphone and you can use the internet texts and calls as usual...

One more tip... Before i could use orange signal share i had to go to myt-mobile and just say that i had changed phones..

Hope this helps + enjoy your new phone!!

Buying an Android phone right now worth it?

Q. Is it worth buying an Android phone right now such as the Motorola Cliq? I heard from some people that Android phones with more powerful processors and upgraded system is coming in the future. Is it worth investing in the Android phones coming out right now, or is it smart to wait for the "next-generation" Android phones. My plan expires in less than a month so I have to make my decision cleverly.

A. Android was built from the ground-up to enable developers to create compelling mobile applications that take full advantage of all a handset has to offer. It was built to be truly open. For example, an application can call upon any of the phone's core functionality such as making calls, sending text messages, or using the camera, allowing developers to create richer and more cohesive experiences for users. Android is built on the open Linux Kernel. Furthermore, it utilizes a custom virtual machine that was designed to optimize memory and hardware resources in a mobile environment. Android is open source; it can be liberally extended to incorporate new cutting edge technologies as they emerge. The platform will continue to evolve as the developer community works together to build innovative mobile applications.

All applications are created equal
Android does not differentiate between the phone's core applications and third-party applications. They can all be built to have equal access to a phone's capabilities providing users with a broad spectrum of applications and services. With devices built on the Android Platform, users are able to fully tailor the phone to their interests. They can swap out the phone's homescreen, the style of the dialer, or any of the applications. They can even instruct their phones to use their favorite photo viewing application to handle the viewing of all photos.

Breaking down application boundaries
Android breaks down the barriers to building new and innovative applications. For example, a developer can combine information from the web with data on an individual's mobile phone -- such as the user's contacts, calendar, or geographic location -- to provide a more relevant user experience. With Android, a developer can build an application that enables users to view the location of their friends and be alerted when they are in the vicinity giving them a chance to connect.

Fast & easy application development
Android provides access to a wide range of useful libraries and tools that can be used to build rich applications. For example, Android enables developers to obtain the location of the device, and allows devices to communicate with one another enabling rich peer-to-peer social applications. In addition, Android includes a full set of tools that have been built from the ground up alongside the platform providing developers with high productivity and deep insight into their applications.


Can any android phone be updated to any android firmware?
Q. I'm thinking about getting a droid phone from cricket. Its on 2.1 and I was wondering could I find a newer firmware online and update it that way.Don't all android phones go threw the same firmware? The reason I'm asking this because, cricket hasn't came out with the update yet and I want it to updated for more fun such as multi touch?

A. The Android software on those phones are almost the same (in terms of running apps or functionality), but you cannot just update an android phone to any firmwire (like flashing a Droid X with HTC firmware), because there are factors, like hardware. Each firmware is designed to work on the phone it is supposed to work in so there are as fewer problems as possible. However, because of this, it can take a long time sometimes to get an official firmware out to the users, from the time Google releases a new Android version.

There are unofficial ways, however. You could root your phone and get modded 'newer' software for your phone. These are usually compiled by other android users. BUT, beware that rooting your phone and installing non-approved firmware could void its warranty and your carrier may end up canceling your service.
