hi guys,  just finished my first board exam!  It was english.  pretty long and tricky too.  Just@managed to finish the paper.      I am very happy with pavan's work on 3 easy steps .  It should really give a boost to this topic.  +1 to pavan.        As far as team logo is concerned,  you guys can do it.        After the development of installation package for 3 steps.  We shall lock this topic and start a new thread for belle shell modifications.  Well,  I will not be available but will keep a look at the progress until  the first week of april.  thank you all for participating. @die2mrw007  Whatever happened @ chiller's corner was just on lighter side.  Even Upakul told me a ..... Via pics but I took it in a sporting way rather it was funny for me.Hopefully,  everything gets well soon between both of you. sorry for offtopic guys.

@die2mrw007  Whatever happened @ chiller's corner was just on lighter side.  Even Upakul told me a ..... Via pics but I took it in a sporting way rather it was funny for me.Hopefully,  everything gets well soon between both of you.

Sorry for Off-topic, but I wanted to make it clear.

Actually you all didnt get me there

Upakul, chris_marsh, allstar are my close buddies...I was just trolling out at Jonas and Amarjit with their own point and reactions. They removed the pic I posted about rohit and warned me while for the same which others posted depicting my name (though it was fun and me and upakul do engage in such trolling) they didnt...So, I got a point and wanted to make them realize about their previous actions and not to hurt anyone. I didnt reported any post or anything.

Guys, I have written a blog post entry for this project. Do let me know if I am correct or you need any changes or additions to it.

Nokia Belle Homescreen on Nokia s60v5

Guys at GizmoLord forum made it possible for Nokia s60v5 users to experience the all new Nokia Belle HomeScreen in their handset as default. Yes, you heard this right !!!

QT developer Ilko Tsenov recently made a ground breaking Belle Shell app for s60v5 users. This app changed the overall look of s60v5 phone to the all new Nokia Belle like interface. Some screenshots are provided below:

 

 

After porting the Belle Shell to s60v5 phone as default Homescreen, the team achieved a total of 50MB Free RAM. But it will eventually decrease upon usage. What we got to know from the developer of this app is we can expect a new and improved version sooner in coming days or months.

The team working for this project (Team PhoeniX) includes: shivam94, devilking, ngoanrazor, ankursmooth, Irajesh555, edios, mayankgarg, Destroyzer, pavan061994

Team PhoeniX member Destroyzer interacted with the Belle shell developer for some queries and suggestions. We have provided the original mail replies as below:

Here is what Destroyzer tried to interact with the developer :

And the reply from the developer (Ilko Tsenov):

Hello!

Thank you for the nice words, I sure appreciate what you are saying. And your English is perfect (it's not my native language too, so mine is not that good either).

I can assure you that Belle Shell will get a new version in a month, or in the worst case two. Unfortunately, not everything can be done with QML because it is slow and eats a lot of memory. In fact, in the next version I will move a lot of the code back to C++ in order to lower the RAM usage, which seems to be the single most important problem at this point. If I can get the RAM usage under 20 MB, it will be great.

Here are the answers to your questions:

- The menu of app doesn't update when a new app is installed. We need to close it and open again to appear the new icon.

I will fix this, but it has to be done in C++.

- Everywhere when appears a bar to type text (like search, etc), a line appear on center (you can note it in app).

This is strange, it does not happen on the test devices (I have a C6 and I have tested on 5230, 5530, 5800, N97, N97 mini, and X6 via nokia remote device testing). Can you install the program on original firmware and see if this still happens? Could the reason be some custom font? I've seen screenshots with custom fonts and they looked OK.

- Works with hardware keys. I tried to add some strings like:

This can not be done in QML, only in C++. The funny thing is that I have included the key handling for the red key and the menu key and it was almost finished, when I checked the store test criteria and it specifically forbids the capture of red key and the menu key, so I have removed the code from the final version. I will try to get permission from Nokia to capture these keys and make them behave as they should (red key will return you to the first home screen and menu key will bring up the menu).

- Make a extended notification bar, adding notifications like new message, calls registry, etc; and it slide smothly like original (actually, you only tap and it appears, no need to slide).

Yes, I will add notifications there but it may not be as complete as the Belle one (I will try to put what I can but some notifications are not accessible from a program). As for the opening, it will most probably remain only tap because with slide is very inconvenient, especially on the resistive touch screens on S60v5 devices. I wish it was only with tap on Belle too Also, when the notification bar is full screen, the slide may be choppy but I will try to make it smooth.

I will continue with the development of Belle Shell because I like Symbian phones. They are the only open platform left. Of course, it does not make enough money to justify working on it but I will still do it because I hate to leave things unfinished and it is a nice challenge to make it work properly on the underpowered S60v5 phones.

Best regards!

This infact led to further queries about using hardware keys integration in app. Reply to the Developer following his previous reply:

Thank you for reply, I'm so glady now!

About error in text bar, I'm using original firmware and my device is a Nokia 5530. See this pic: [].

About hardware keys, I think Nokia must accept, because SPB Mobile Shell have hardware keys integration and it's on Nokia Store.

If it did not cost much RAM, you can do new dialer too, maybe?

And about notification bar, you don't need to make like original, only "x new messages/new calls", if possible.

And more features requested by users...

- A option to choose custom wallpaper.

- New basic widgets like Music Player. And, if possible, make compatible with external widgets (e.g I install IM for Nokia and it's widgets appears to choose in menu).

Additionaly, if you need any help, count with me (because I'm counting with you!)

Thanks again!

Reply from developer (Ilko Tsenov):

Hello!

I will test the next version specifically on 5530 to see if I can reproduce it. I suspect that this is because the automatic resizing of the elements because of the smaller screen on 5530 but it did not happen on the test device on RDA. If I still can not reproduce it, I will send you a test .sis to see if the removal of automatic scaling fixes the problem.

About the HW keys - I hope so but you can never be sure

The dialer on Belle is not that better than the one on S60v5 devices so I do not think that it is so important.

The custom wallpaper - yes, certainly, I just did not have the time to include it in the first version. I will add new widgets too, music player and maybe weather (if not very hard to extract data). However usage of the existing standard WRT widgets will be hard. Not only this is a hard thing to do but it will also eat a lot of RAM because I will need a full browser to run the WRT code, so this just can not happen.

I have some crazy ideas like animated (live) wallpapers and such but we will have to see how much can I lower the RAM usage before doing this.

Best regards!

So, we can definitely expect an improved version of this app and experience a true Belle feel on our beloved s60v5 phones from the Developer of Belle Shell (Ilko Tsenov). Nokia might forget our s60v5, but we symbian fans will never let it die.

Whoa!!! I finished reading this within a minute if not in one breath! Very exciting to say the least! +1 Shivam! You did very well in pointing out the issues and trigger the situation to our way!

This article is 96% complete as I forgot to add this topic link

Will do it now and publish it.

You can add the logo in this forum topic itself coz the blog article is too long and including more images can make it too lengthy.
