T-Mobile USA Not Releasing Windows Phone 7.8 Update For Its Nokia Lumia 710

(GSM Insider) - T-Mobile USA Not Releasing Windows Phone 7.8 Update For Its Nokia Lumia 710.

When the Microsoft announced the Windows Phone 8, it also announced that all the devices running on Windows Phone 7 will not get the Windows Phone 8 update.

In order to compensate those Windows Phone 7 and Windows Phone 7.5 users, Microsoft decided to roll out the Windows Phone 7.8 as a compensation. Windows Phone 7.8 will only share about 80% of the features of Windows Phone 8. For example, the Windows Phone 7.8 also has the LiveTiles customization features.

Earlier today, T-Mobile USA dropped a huge bomb by confirming that the Nokia Lumia 710 will not get the Windows 7.8 update.

At this time, the Nokia Lumia 710 will not receive the software update. T-Mobile is committed to enhancing customers’ experience with our devices, including providing upgrades to the latest operating systems, and T-Mobile aims to deliver software upgrades when it will provide a better experience for our customers. We’ll share additional information on upgrades for the Nokia Lumia 710 when they are available. - T-Mobile USA. 

Since T-Mobile USA stated that "at this time" the device will not get the update, but who knows about the future. Perhaps the update still in works and not ready for release. You may ask why Nokia isn't releasing the update? Sorry to tell you that it is the carrier that responsible for the update.

(GSM Insider) - Nokia Lumia 920 And BlackBerry Are Among The Smartphones Of Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra.

Sometimes you wonder how many phones are using by a prime minister? The answer is a lot. At least the Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra is using five phones at the same time. 



The photo above was posted by Yingluck Shinawatra on her Facebook page. She was using the Sony Vaio along with five different phones on her table. On her right, it was the Nokia Lumia 920. The Thai Prime Minister is another proud owner of white Nokia Lumia 920 after Jessica Alba

On her left hand side, there are four different phones. One of them was the BlackBerry device and another three remained unknown as hard to guess from far. Perhaps one of the three devices is Android device. 

Look like the main mobile phone for Yingluck Shinawatra is the Nokia Lumia 920 since she put it on the right hand side while other devices were put together. The Windows Phone is definitely gaining its momentum in the market.

Nokia To Work On Graphene, World's Hardest Substance

(GSM Insider) - Nokia To Work On Graphene, World's Hardest Substance.

There might be some parties that don't have the confidence on Nokia. But European Union is the one that shows confidence to the Finnish company.


Nokia announces that it was one of the recipients that received $1.35 billion grant from the European Union for the R&D on graphene for the future ten years. 

"Nokia is proud to be involved with this project, and we have deep roots in the field -- we first started working with graphene already in 2006," Nokia's CTO Henry Tirri said in a statement. "Since then, we have come to identify multiple areas where this material can be applied in modern computing environments. We've done some very promising work so far, but I believe the greatest innovations have yet to be discovered." Henry added.



Graphene is the world's thinnest substance as well as a far better conductor than the copper. It is bendable and transparent too. You can imagine if your mobile device is made from the world's hardest substance. Isn't very cool?

Nokia Music+ Brings Unlimited Downloads, Higher Quality And Lower Price To All Lumia Devices

(GSM Insider) - Nokia Music+ Brings Unlimited Downloads, Higher Quality And Lower Price To All Lumia Devices.

Earlier today, Nokia announces the Nokia Music+ (also known as Nokia Music Plus) which is the upgraded version of Nokia Music. Nokia Music+ goes head to head with Microsoft Xbox with the similar services.


Nokia Music+ offers features as below:


Unlimited skips. Whether you like to skip from track to track, or just want extra control over what you hear. There’s no stopping you with Nokia Music+.

Unlimited downloads. The free service allows you to download up to four Mixes (each of which contains hours of music) and play them without an Internet connection. The paid service removes this limit – you can download a massive supply of offline music you can swap as you wish.

Higher quality. We were surprised by the high quality of streaming music from Nokia Music, even over a 2.5G connection. Nokia Music+ allows you to download music at eight times the existing quality. Plus, you can set rules to only download high quality when you’re on WiFi, for example.

Lyrics. Words to the songs you’re listening to, right on your Nokia Lumia. Either in a scrolling list, Karaoke-style format, or a display you can scroll up and down.

On your desktop. The Nokia Music+ subscription also gives you access to the service without your phone. A web-app gives you the ability to play Mixes on your computer, smart TV or other connected screens.

Nokia Music+ will roll out in the next few weeks. The price will vary slightly according to territory, but is expected to be available at around €3.99/$3.99 per month.
