There is a very good tutorial about creating a Web Runtime Podcast application over at Nokia’s Wiki. The example demonstrate how to use a JQuery based UI framework, Guarana UI developed by INdT, HTML, JavaScript and CSS to create a mobile podcast application. Web Runtime has been on our Nokia Symbian devices for a while, and it is very easy to create applications if you understand standard Web technologies.

Go to the Wiki page WebRuntime Podcast application

Test Result

After driver installation completed, there will be new network adapter named “Nokia 770 USB Ethernet/RNDIS” appear when you plug your N900 in. Don’t surprise if it shows as unplugged since it’s just a driver problem. However, if it shows, it means your N900 is plugged in and connected completely already. ;)

Here’s how to make your first Qt App:

• Download and installed Qt for Windows SDK from http://qt.nokia.com/downloads
• Next,  install the latest build of MADDE from http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/MADDE.php
• Finally follow this simple guide http://wiki.maemo.org/MADDE/QtCreator_integration_for_windows
  • Installed latest build of Qt Creator 1.3.81 in separate folder from the snapshots link in guide
  • Connect PC Connectivity tool to connect your Nokia N900 via USB cable.
  • Configures the connectivity as described in guide.

Nokia’s push for Qt on MeeGo (or Maemo) and symbian now making a lot of sense. And after some initial experiemnts Faisal think it’s the right direction, where developers will not have to learn new programing language for each platform, but just select the target platform to compile for. And best of all, the application is compiled natively, so no major performance drop and sandbox issues.With Qt on symbian and MeeGo, there’s now even bigger opportunity for mobile developers to target greater audience with less development efforts.

Qt Creator features

• An advanced C++ code editor
• Project and build management tools
• Integrated, context-sensitive help system
• Visual debugger
• Code management and navigation tools

Download

Select the version of Qt that matches your development system. Qt libraries are licensed under LGPL and allow applications linked with them to be either open source or proprietary.

Guide

Tutorial to create a basic Qt Application for MeeGo by Bob Spencer a Sr. Software Engineer at Intel.

1. Start Qt Creator

2. Start the New Project Wizard

• Select menu item: File, New File or Project
• Select Qt4 Gui Application

3. Select a name and path for the project. We will call our project “HelloMeeGo”

4. Click “Next” through the rest of the wizard screens.

5. The project is now created. We can build and run it at this point.

6. Select the main window cpp file to edit it.

7. Add the highlighted lines below to your file to create a title, icon, menu, and label. For simplicity we borrow the nautilus icon.

8. Build the project and run.

Congratulations You have created your first MeeGo application.

Check out these cool visual theme effects on my Nokia 5530 XpressMusic Device (a symbian s60v5). So you want them too well just keep a check on my Youtube Channel and subscribe it to know how I did that or if you fancy reading a long post on it then get hold of our RSS Feeds and we will bring you the guide in the coming days. For geeks who have already done this can share their thoughts and views over at our forums and help users get started with these. This can be done in most Nokia S60v5 devices including 5800 XpressMusic. Check out the video below and let us know what you think.

1. *#7780# – Restore factory settings – resets all the settings to the default. Make sure you back up your data. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.

2.*#7370# – Reformat your phone (out of the box, though keep in mind that most new nokia phones at least  Nseries, Eseries and s60 based phones have UDP – user data preservation, so not ALL data may be lost. Still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)

This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working. If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button.

3. Hard reset – hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key for s60v3 based devices. Turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. Once you feel the phone power up you can let go off only the power button while still holding all three buttons.

For Nokia 5800XM – use the following buttons to do a hard reset, /Green/Red/Camera keys pressed all at once on power up. This will only work on 5800′s that have firmware version 20. and up.

For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is Backspace/SpaceBar / Backspace while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen. If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

Catch the video below to see how I did a hard reset on N97 and N95 8GB.
