Open source games for symbian

It uses the TwoFish protection algorithm, which, according to the author, added to the fact that the master password is not stored on the device, results in a high level of security. Bemused allows you to control your music collection remotely using Bluetooth.

It has been reviewed favorably on Newsforge. I used it to control slide presentations on my PC and laptop. During a presentation it is common to move around, either to get closer to the audience or to point out something by hand on the projected slide.

Bemused has a client application running on Series 60 and UIQ phones and a server application available for both Linux and Windows. It can play. You can create and use customized skins, define hot keys, and set auto play, shuffle, and repeat modes.

With OggPlay you can even use random music files as ringtones. Shopper2 is another application written by Kostantin Knizhnik.

It helps you keep track of items you need to buy at the supermarket. It displays a big list of groceries divided into types of items and you can add your own that you use to make your shopping list. Once there, you uncheck items one by one as you put them in your shopping cart. You can clear the list to reuse it another time or modify it as your needs change.

This is another application that would be improved by the ability to synchronize with a PC. Even though the software is barely usable at this point, the concept is worth supporting.

This could become a killer logistic application, especially since there is no special hardware required, just an off-the-shelf wireless phone. While handy applications are useful, nothing is more fun than games. Many games for Symbian smart phones are available on the Web, and many of them are open source.

The object of the game is to make bubbles fall from the roof before the roof itself fall on your penguin. Bubbles come down if you are able to group three or more of them of the same color by shooting from the ground a new colored bubble.

Graphics and sound are very good though the sound can be muted. Bomber is a Java game created initially by www. You are moving on a well-made double-defined field background scenery like mountains moves slower than foreground images , and you can rotate your plane clockwise and counter-clockwise.

Similar as it may sound to Android's promise, there are major differences, says Williams. Everything else is closed or proprietary. Symbian is also ahead of Android in that it will publish its platform roadmap and planned features up to , he says. And anyone can influence that roadmap or contribute to new features.

But will that be enough for Symbian to steal away customers lured by a snazzier and younger rival? It is the move pushed forward by Nokia as Nokia is the majority shareholder in the foundation with other major industry players backing it.

What is surprising now is that Symbian is head to head with Maemo, a sole open source initiative of Nokia. But the battle of operating systems in mobile heats up now as Android, iPhone and Droid are the warriors in the field. The rate of innovation will increase and it needs to be seen how the ecosystem will have metamorphosis in coming days. Open source has some benefits and some disadvantages as well but to counter the move from others, Nokia was left with no choice but it needs to be seen how the Nokia board will decide on next move to capture the rate of application development and adoption for Nokia Phones.
