Nokia N95 Freeware

Symbian S60 3rd Edition Freeware


UPDATED FEB 2013

The Nokia Store is the best place to find up to date applications for you N95. I have hosted many of the freeware applications listed below as over time the creators or websites that originally hosted them have shut down. If you want to use old applications you may find they are out of date and wont instal, but if you change your date back a few years they should instal. details below:

 "CERTIFICATE EXPIRED" FIX - This page was originally created in 2007. If you get a notification when installing that the certificate has expired then simply change the Date on your phone back a couple of years!! Go to Menu/ Tools/ Settings/ General/ Date and Time and set the date to an earlier year ,that should do it!! You can change the date back after you have installed the application.

Certificate Problems
If you get error “Certificate Error, contact the application supplier”. To accept all applications Go to Tools > App. mgr > Options > Settings. Change “software installation” from “Signed Only” to “All” and “Online certificate check to “off”.


Guide
.SIS or .SISX application



Unsigned .SIS or .SISX application, This will need to be signed.



Java application



Adobe Flash application



Gold Star Rating, I highly recommend this application




N95 FREEWARE


Works in the UK only. The BBC iPlayer allows you to watch live TV & Radio as well as catch up TV & Radio on your N95. There have been various versions of the mobile app. I found my old versions didn't load (or update) correctly any more. You can download the latest version of the BBC iPlayer from the OVI store.











Nixie
Nixie v.1.01 is an application by Jouni Miettunen that emulates the Nixie clocks developed in the 1950's. The Clock works in Portrait and landscape mode and has an option to change the colour to Red, green or Blue. It is not technically a screensaver and has to be started from the application menu folder.










MultiCounter
MultiCounter by yohanes allows you to increase or decrease a number count on your phone. You simply push the right navigation key to increase and left navigation key to decrease the count. You can change the name of the Counter, add additional Counters and also export the data from the phone as a text file stored in C:\data. The application is already signed, More details on Yohanes Page



FreeTimeBox v.1.05
FreeTimeBox by junnikokuki is an application that allows you to sync the correct time on your phone. If you are obsessed about the correct seconds then this is for you. There are 4 ways to get the time info, Wlan, WAP, SMS and GPS. You can set it to run at start up or just get the time when you want. The application is already signed!!.








FreeCaller
FreeCaller by Ynon Perek is a Full Screen Caller display for N95. It is the only freeware Full screen application i have seen and allows you to add any picture from your gallery to a Contacts list. It needs to run as an application in "Hide" mode rather than completely replacing the default caller display. The application does need to be signed online!
One tip is to make special cropped photos 240x320 for the caller images, otherwise it will distort any wide images to fit full screen.
The latest version is v1.04 but i found that the later versions have a bug when using the Settings feature, so i have provided a v1.01 which i found works perfectly.





Call Filter by Anfy
This freeware allows you to Block unwanted callers from your contacts or any specified phone number.











Opera mini 4.4
Opera is an Internet browser that works on mobile phones. It has been around for years now and offers a good alternative to the inbuilt Web browser on your phone. there are loads of settings to play with including opening in full screen and landscape mode. The link opens in the Opera mini homepage where you can see full details of their features.
The latest version 4.2 beta includes New Skin features, Faster downloading especially in USA and Asia-Pacific, You tube compatibility and sync features for Notes. There are also many shortcut keys fro rotating the pages, fullscreen etc





MagicKey 1.0 beta
Magic Key is a freeware application that allows you to change or disable the functions of the Keys on your N95. The application needs to be signed.The applications is a beta version and it does have a few bugs but nothing serious. I have created the Zip folder which contains instructions on how to set the Key Pairs as it is a bit difficult at first. The screenshots left show part of the process in changing the Keys.

















MemoryUp Personal
MemoryUp Personal is a freeware application which can reclaim lost resources. It has a useful main Screen that shows your current RAM use and an option to "Quick Boost" where you can gain back lost Ram from Memory leaks. You could simply restart your phone to achieve the same results, but this makes a quick and useful tool to gain small amounts of RAM.
When you download the Zip folder be careful not to choose Upgrade button otherwise you will have to pay for the PRO version.
Once you have downloaded the zip folder extract the .jar and .jad files and move them to your phone. Then use the File Manager on the phone to locate the .jad file and Open, it will automatically install.





Jbak Taskman
Juriy Bakunin a developer from Russia has updated Jbak TaskMan 0.99 which is a Task manager that not only can kill applications but also launch applications for your own personal menu.
Another great thing is it is already signed, and of course its free. When its running it automatically replaces the standard task manager which is opened by holding down the Menu Key. The application shows running applications on the left and allows you to add personal applications or documents to the launch menu on the right. There are also many other options, which makes it a really useful application indeed. Download Jbak TaskMan 0.99 directly from his website by clicking the title or go here.





AlertMe
This application by Ahmet Yildirim (McLightning) alerts you if your phone is moved using the built in accelerometer as the sensor.
You need to install python and a Megapypack 1.52 to get the application to work. Before you install the MegapyPack remove RDAccelerometer if you have previously installed it. I have provided a zip folder with all 3 applications.
The AlertMe Application and MegapyPack 1.52 both need to be signed
but the python1.4 app. is already signed. Click on the application name to download the Zip folder or go here.
Thanks to jd Sullivan for highlighting this application :)





SwitchOff
This Application allows you to turn off your phone at a set time. It is very simple and useful if you need this feature.
The application needs to be signed via SymbianSigned process.













N95 Lightsaber
A developer named Graham Oldfield has used the Accelerometer in the N95 to create a simple lightsabre out of the N95! The latest version 1.62 has even better settings, allowing you to choose the colour, sound level etc. You also need to install the Accelerometer plugin which comes in the zip file.








SMS Scheduler 1.0.7
This application by Lombrozo allows you to send text messages when you want. You could scheduler birthday text or reminders with options of hourly to yearly frequency.
It requires
Python to be installed but doesn't need signing.









Star Wars Imperial Ace
In this game you are the Imperial fighter, shooting down x-wings and other things.
There are really good quality graphics and guides. it was apparently originally used in Siemens phones and has been resized for N95. Use the Dark side!!










FreeCallsSprite
FreeCallSprite is a dial-up vibration application by junnikokuki that basically vibrates when you make a call until the other person answers the phone.
You could of course hold it in your hand or just leave the phone on a table vibrating as the vibration is quite strong you will certainly notice when the it stops!
Unfortunately the application is unsigned so you will need to follow the online signing process, on my Main page Section 3, if you haven't already got a certificate.










IfInfo
This freeware application by Yohanes allows you to see your N95 Internet Connection details like I.P address, DNS, Gateway and many others.
It is similar to using the PC command prompt
ipconfig /all.










Theme Magic beta
This application use the accelerometer inbuilt in the N95 to Change themes when you shake your phone. This is a beta version and does not have full settings capability. I found it difficult to see the new changed theme before selecting it but i am sure this is something that will improve when the full freeware version is available. For more details on Theme Magic visit Symbian Freak












Beeper
Beeper is a freeware application by Ariek44 that is simliar to the popular Timebar. It can show the date, Time, Battery or signal strength or RAM use on the Inactive Screen. You will need to install Python for the applicaton to work, i have provided a copy in the zip file.
Generally Beeper is more customizable than Timebar, but both allow you to move the display around the screen using XY coordinates.
The Bar display type is changed by selecting "Bar info". You can also set hourly alarm tones as with Timebar by creating .mp3 tracks. I have provided a Timebar set of basic hourly tones in the zip folder. You can change the hour alert range, though i did have problems getting the correct hourly time voice alert.






The screenshots left show the Options available in Beeper, you can "Restart your phone" start specific applications at allocated times as well as changing the colour of the text and background of the display.

For RGB Colours see ColorSchemer

For more details on Beeper see SymbianFreak





Battery Voice
This freeware application speaks your Battery level out loud! After starting the application simply shake the phone to active the Battery Voice. This version is in English, but you could change the .wav files to your own language.
This application needs python installed and a copy is in the zip file. There are also images and sounds folders which need to be placed in External Memory Card: z / others.










iBattery and Clock Screensaver
This .swf file is a Screensaver that shows you battery strength and current time. The application can be viewed using the Flash lite player located in your Media folder on the phone.
If you want to display a Screensaver on your phone, you need to got to Menu / Tools / Settings / General / Personalisation / Themes / Power saver and then choose Animation. You can also change the time delays and back light. For more info on Screensavers see section 8 here









DivX mobile player
To play .avi video files rather than the mp4.
Tutorial for creating .AVI video files here
The Latest version 0.91. Choose the Symbian OS 9 S60 3rd Edition version on the download page.











WakeUpMe
Wake Up Me otherwise known as pyBudzik by the developer Damian is an application that allows you to change your default alarm sound to the Radio, LCGJukebox, FIVN player or "Other" application from z:/sys/bin.
It can open another application like realplayer by using this
string Z:\sys\bin\MediaPlayer.exe but i cannot open a track just the application, so it is not so useful in this mode.
To set your Alarm tone to you favourite track go to Menu/Tools/Settings/General/Personalisation/Tones/ClockAlarmTone and choose the track from your Music Library.
You need to install Python to make the application work and i have supplied both applications in the zip folder.







Mobile Weather 1.1
Mobile weather is a freeware application that allows you to get weather forecasts for hundreds of different cities around the world. This application uses Yahoo weather as it source and therefore needs and internet connection to retrieve the initial data. It will remember different locations that you set and has good options for updating the forecast.








Nokia DJ Mixer
This Nokia application came out in 2007 from th Nseries India website and is available for most Nokia Nseries phones. It basically allows you to mix tracks from your music library and also make Karoke tracks. You can create playlists and save them, which is really useful because gettings track is a little slow due to need to the constant Read data approval.

Although you can load a long playlist you can only mix 2 tracks at one time.




I have to say i found this application a lot of fun, its quite simple to use and if you play the phone through a stereo system the mixing sounds quite good :)










Mp3 editor
Mp3editor is a tool to cut/join Mp3 on your phone. For me I prefer to edit mp3 on a pc with MP3DirectCut but this gives you the opportunity to do it anywhere from your mobile. The application has a few small problems: the Key options does not show up on the screen, and they are important to know they are

Use left soft key for menus and right key to cancel or exit.
1 & 3= Move start point to right
2= Reset start position
4 & 6= Move end point to left/right
5= Mark end point at current position
7 & 8= Adjust timing steps
Up, down keys= Volume control
Left, right keys= Move position mark

The other problem is that you edit in time(secs) rather than on a graph.
Although i have mentioned a couple of issues i must say i think its a really good application, and its gives you the option to create clips/edits where ever you are.





Syntrax
Syntrax is the first and only professional music software for the mobile phone.
It is a sequencer, sound synthesis and sample editor all wrapped up in a nice little package! A mobile synthesizer in your pocket. Those are the quotes from the Syntrax website, i have to be totally honest, ive had this application sitting around for a while and havent posted it because i have no idea how to use it! I get totally confused at the intricate layout, but i am sure if you use this type of software you will understand it. The good news is the website has tutorials to download and more details.





S60 Ticker
S60 ticker allows you to show incoming Text messages in a Ticker tape scroll bar on your phone. It is a really good application with excellent settings allowing you to move the scroll bar, Enable Theme support, change scroll speed and many others. The advantage is that you can continue playing games, or writing messages whilst the incoming text.
Ok now the complicated bit, The Earlier version is freeware.






pyMoneta
This freeware application by Ariek44 allows you to move a coin of your choice around the screen. It needs python to be installed and uses the inbuilt accelerometer to control the coins movement. I have provided a zip folder with the necessary python and coins by Teo from symbian freak and myself. Click on the application name to download









pyPoziomica
This application by Ariek44 turns your n95 into a Spirit level! I'm always wanting to check how level things are REALLY i am, so this is great for me! Well i haven't checked how accurate it is yet but its pretty cool. It needs python to be installed. You can change the backgrounds or leave it plain. I have provided a zip folder with python and the backgrounds from symbian freak which you could change at a later date.





Reboot or EQ reboot
This is a very basic Reboot application. There are no options once you press the button it will restart the phone . One good thing is that is signed so you can use it straight away.











PyRestart 2.00
This application requires Python to be installed on your phone. It doesn't need signing which is good and has simple options with a Auto Restart feature. I really liked this application. When it restarts the phone there is no Nokia linking hands clip and no pin card request as with most of the other reboot apps.








NStarter 1.05
Nstarter is a Reboot application with the advantage of having loads of settings and shortcut options. The main disadvantage is that it is Unsigned, so you will need to sign it yourself or submit it to symbian signed (see signing process on main page)








NeoReboot
NeoReboot is a recent application that can Restart your Phone. The main drawback is that the application is unsigned.













AppQLaunch
Application Quick launch by Yohanes is a simple but very good freeware program that allows you to quickly open applications by name. To save time its a good idea to open it with a shortcut key, as shown in the second image. I also found it necessary to refresh the list in the options after installing, to bring up the full list of application available.







pySnake
pySnake is a simply but entertaining game that uses the Accelerometer to change the direction of the snake. The action works well and makes the game a little more complicated and interesting than normal. Just tilt the phone to move the direction its that easy. You will need to install Python for s60 for this game to work. python is needed for other applications so its well worth installing it.







Galaxian
Well this continues my collection of old school arcade games. It wasn't originally made for a N95 but i have resized it and improved the app. icon. This is not 'Galaxian Mini' which is a poor substitute. In the resizing process text details have been degraded but the game play is better. Its a copy of the Namco game by Vboarz.
The sound works but is amazingly loud! the vibrate doesn't seem to work. You can turn the both on/off.







Voice Breaker
This is a game where you have to shout to destroy the building. The louder you shout the more damage you will do, but look out for the people walking in the road, and try to get the planes and helicopter to crash into the buildings.








Speaker
This application by Manu uses the speech command inbuilt in N95 to Speak the Date, Time, IMEI, Missed calls, or Last missed call. You may need to download Python1.4 before installing the Speaker application, all the links are on his page.
The application is still in development and you can contact Manu with suggestions for further additions to the speech list or any other ideas you may have.
There are some simple but clever settings which allow you to select a shortcut like contacts on Exit. For example you can set your usual "Contacts" key to open the speaker application which could then say the "Time" then close and bring up the "Contacts" menu. with a little development this could be a useful application.





MobileRAR 0.8
RAR if you don't already know are a compressed file format similar to Zip, They are commonly used on the internet and emails. WinRAR is a not a free product and this application is not made by them but by a individual developer.
The app. can extract RAR files within your phone, i tested it and it does work, it does have an annoying feature of a using a confirmation screen everytime you move from a file to another.
It is being constantly improved and lets hope newer versions can iron out its small bugs






YouTube
You tube have now launched their own application for browsing Youtube videos on your N95.
The application works well on my N95 in portrait and landscape mode. The search function is good and remembers previous searches.
The black/grey background is a lot more tasteful than the actual plain white background of the normal website. (Which i changed to Black on firefox a while ago)













HourPower is a simple application that can speak the time using the N95 built in speech commands. It works in English , French and german. Its best launched by a soft key on the standby screen.










Active Notes
This freeware application is basically 'Notes' on Steroids. Its a really good app. that allows you to save a text notes and add an Image, Sound clips and also add any note to a contact. It can even do more. . . Read Here






Timebar
Timebar is a very useful freeware application that can show the time on all screens whether you are in the menu, music player etc. It can also play a tone or voice alert every hour on the hour (You can turn off particular hours in the settings) . There are only English and Chinese voice tags. The original English Voice Tags were missing 11am,12am,11pm and12pm, so i have edited them and also created new cleaner English Alerts.
You will need to place the 'Timebar' Folder in your Phone Memory/ Data/ Sounds/ Timebar (Folder) to get the hourly alert to work. You can change the location and colour of the clock in the settings. If you want to make Voice tags in other languages you can get Text to speech here







Tevero Stopwatch
Finally a freeware Stopwatch for N95 !! It doesnt look as "pretty" as other non freeware apps. but it works well, and was designed for low power use, You need to download the Jar/Jad file zip file and Install to your phone via pc. Install from the .Jad file.








Calcium s60
A good calculator is Calcium, It looks great and works well, my favourite













cCalc
For a scientific calculator get









XCalc
Another Calculator, not so simple to use but (note the equals button is Options/Calc) but has other features including Trigonometric functions and graphs, Don't ask me what they mean, I don't know.







Screenshot
This is my favourite screen capture application and the one i use for all my screenshots.








ActiveFile v1.23
I used this application a lot . You can run an On-screen Memory Monitor by selecting Options/ Tools/ Start memory monitor. This screenshot show background tasks running (except the top two) on my N95.










Y-Tasks
There are 8 application in this set but you ony really need Y-Tasks, Memory Status and Trace to analyse your memory.








CPU Monitor by 3sky
This is a freeware CPU and Ram monitor for anyone interested in analysing the performance of their N95.









RotateMe 2.1
RotateMe is an excellent freeware application that automatically adjusts the direction of the screen from landscape to portrait and back again. The only problem with Rotateme is that it is unsigned, which means you will have to sign the application.







Space Invaders
This java game is almost identical to the 1979 Colour version of Space Invaders, the sounds works and can be changed in the options. Click on the image to download
