Eseries

It's been a while since I posted some good themes for Nokia Eseries devices. I hope this post of themes from three different theme designers makes up for the lack of theme posts. The common thread of these designers is that their themes have frequently appeared on this blog.

If you are having problems with themes please read the following posts before asking questions: "certificate error" and "expired certificate"

First up is legendary Roman Keller.

Following up on the previous blog post about issues installing themes, here are some high quality themes from one of my absolute favourite theme designers - Roman Keller.

These themes are part of a set of eight themes. I post four of them this week and four the next week (So you have a reason to come back)

As much as I like themes to personalize my Nokia Eseries devices they are also a cause for the vast majority of all questions I receive to this blog. On a good day I get no questions about themes but on an average I get five questions a day. Yes, five questions per day! The questions I receive are:

"I have problems installing themes please help me" or "I get a "certificate error" message when trying to install a theme what do I do" or "I get an "certificate expired" error message when installing a theme please help"

Although this have been covered extensively in the past I guess it is still an issue.

If you try to install a theme and see the above error message "Certificate Error. Contact the application supplier" You are trying to installed an application that is not Symbian signed.

The solution is easy. Simply switch the setting in the Application Manager from "Signed only" to accept all - "Software Installation: All". You can find the application manager in the tools folder, then click on "Option" to bring up "Settings"

Another common issue is the "Expired Certificate" error. The certificate that the theme developer used may have expired. However, there is an even easier fix for this issue.

Simply set the date on your device back one year and then install the theme. After you successfully installed the theme don't forget to set the time correctly on your device.

With that being said I am now off to trawl the internet for some new great themes. If you have any themes to share with us please send them my way: Ed at "the domain of this blog". 

One of my favourite theme designers, Roman Keller, is back from a brief hiatus. We have covered Roman's excellent themes many times before so I am happy to see that he is back designing great themes for Nokia Eseries devices again.

Good to have you back Roman!

Update:

Roman has just published a new great theme for Nokia E51 and N95.

It's about time for some Nokia Eseries themes!

I know, I know, "Friday Themes" is a good tradition, appreciated by many readers. I've neglected the theme posts. Normally these posts take so much time to put together. Sometimes I spend half a day trawling the internet for good themes, testing them out, getting screen shots etc. Anyway, since I've been extremely busy with work lately I just haven't had the time and energy.

But fear not, the theme posts are not going away.

I'll go easy on the themes this week since we've already have two theme related post. This week we have two themes for you and your Eseries device.

First up is ICEman's Lounge Red, originally not for the screen dimensions of the Nokia E61(i) but works quite well.

OK. I don't plan to turn www.e-series.org into a strictly theme blog but it's not everyday one of my favourite application developer comes out with a great theme.

Psiloc has created a high quality theme called REFLECT. The theme, which is $4 and available from their website, sports some beautiful reflective details as well as Flash screen saver for devices supporting this - S60 3.1.

OK, ok, ok, it's not Friday yet but you can never have too many themes. Especially when they are created by Nokia. Here is a great little tip on how to download two beautiful themes for your Eseries device.

Go to http://ea.mobile.nokia.com/content/spin/ea/E50/en/theme from your device.

This will bring you to a page originally for the Nokia E50 with two great themes. These themes will work fine on the E61(i) (and other Eseries devices)

It's finally Friday and time for some good theme for your Eseries device.

This week's themes are a mixed bag. First up is a theme that is rather old but have been requested a few times. It is a simple white/black theme with no bells or whistles but should appeal to those of you who subscribe to the philosophy of less is more.

The resolution of N76 Red is (240×320) but it still works pretty well on Nokia E61(i).

It's Friday again and time for some themes for your Nokia E61(i) and other Eseries devices.

First up is a fellow Symbian blogger who has his own theme:

The next four themes are from the same designer - Wesley.

Whoa - don't know what happen to this week. All of a sudden it's Friday and time for some good themes for your Eseries devices. 

First up is Matze over at e61effect.com. He has "remixed" an existing theme and come up with a theme that literally screams "Weekend" and "Party" in the same breath. I love it and I need it after a hectic week.

I've featured "Cute Orange" before but at the time the theme wasn't optimized for the Nokia E61(i). Roman created a new version, optimized version for the E61(i) - thanks Roman!

I just can't get enough of the Nokia E61i. However, until I get my hands on one this great video overview will have to do.

Is it just me or does the Nokia e61i seem much faster than the E61?

Thanks GL. 

This week's themes are all from one very talented designer - P@sco.

I have previously featured P@sco's creations but that was quite some time ago and only one theme. It's time to dedicate this week's theme post to P@sco alone!

Hats off to you P@sco.

It's finally Friday and time for some themes for your Eseries devices. This week I have tried to find a a group of themes that all are nice and clean (think - less is more) but also a few themes with edited icons (a request from previous theme post).

Hopefully there is something for everyone.

I couldn't find the name of the creator of the following versions of the Nokia "Dots" theme but if anyone knows please tell me so I can give credit to the talented theme designer. Thanks to Richard for letting me know that the below Dots themes are official Nokia variants of the original Dots theme.

First up in this week's batch of themes for your Nokia E61 is "Dots". Dots is one of the official themes included on the new Eseries devices (E65, E61i and E90).

Next up are two great themes from aco_kuna. These themes are technically not for the Nokia E61 but they are too good to pass on.

Roman Keller is an amazing theme designer who used to create great themes for Nokia E61. However, he switched devices and got himself a nice, black Nokia E50.

Since then there has been no new themes coming from Roman with support for Nokia E61. However, that might change as Roman is looking for testers with the Nokia E61 for his themes.

In the meanwhile, here are two great themes, technically not for the E61 but they are so stunning that I don't care that they appear a bit "streched"

Roman, you are very talented~!

The first theme of the week is once again from Good ol' Phil, PTWS, who has made some changes to a previously created theme "Saku" to come up with a simple yet stylish theme called "Mask"

Today's theme is somewhat unusual so I will make an exception to my regular theme posting schedule (limited to Fridays) and post this anyway.

The theme is created by Nokia and the timing of its appearance coincides with last week's the availability of the Intellisync Mobile Suite 8.0 for enterprise. (Press Release here and more about Nokia Intellisync Mobile Suite here)

A big thank you to Boston Rob!

Last week was Valery, this week it's Phil aka Phil The WebSurfer. Here are two simple yet aesthetic themes by PTWS.
