Lifeblog on ‘Nokia’s Newest Smartphone’

Sascha Segan was very US centric when he said in his PC Magazine article:

The 6682 is the first phone to support the new release of Nokia’s
Lifeblog, so users can actually blog from their phone. It allows you to
post pictures, videos and text messages to an online timeline that you
can either keep private or publish for your friends.

He was inaccurate on one account – the Nokia 6682 is the first US phone to support the upcoming release of Lifeblog (the Nokia 6630, which will also support the upcoming release, is not a US phone). While we haven’t formally made it known, the next release of Lifeblog will be compatible with the Nokia 6680, Nokia 6681, and Nokia 6682 when they come out, and also compatible with the Nokia 6630, which has been on the market for a while now. We’ll announce when the software is available (soon, really!).

In the mean time, the current version of Lifeblog is compatible with the Nokia 6630, Nokia 6670, Nokia 7610, and the Nokia 6260. If you can’t find Lifeblog on your phone (it’s pre-installed on some), you can get it from the Nokia Lifeblog site. And if you are like me and can’t keep the phone numbers straight, there is a graphical guide to help you get the software you need.

And remember, the mobile software is free. If you want to do more and save more and browse more, then go out an buy the PC version of Lifeblog (29.95 €). More info on the Nokia Lifeblog site.

PS Carita is showing the Lifeblog on the Nokia 6682 with the Nokia 6682 team at the PMA show in Orlando. Great work guys!

  1. [T]he next release of Lifeblog will be compatible with the Nokia 6680, Nokia 6681, and Nokia 6682 when they come out, and also compatible with the Nokia 6630, which has been on the market for a while now.
    ….

    But I just got my 7610! [rassum frassum grumble grumble]

  2. will lifeblog ever be out for the 6600? I can’t understand this if not – there are a lot of 6600s out there. I guess Nokia are just wanting these users to upgrade to later series 60 devices :\

  3. alas, we probably will not make a version that is compatible with the 6600 (as far as i can tell). yes, there are a lot out there, but we made a decision that would allow us to do many things technically that with the 6600 or 6620 wouldn’t have been easy.
    as for the list of phones, the list above is comprehensive. basically, if you look at the list, they are all series 60 phones that came out after the 7610 (it’s a platform issue, for those who know what i mean).
    sorry.
    btw, i use a 7610. nothing wrong with it. 😉

  4. but, here’s a tip to get your 6600 photos and videos onto the computer so you can import them into Lifeblog (it just might work):
    – if you import your items directly from the MMC, say via a card reader, then they should import with the date of creation on the phone and get put in the right place in the timeline. so, do this!
    – if you bluetooth your items to the PC they will all have the creation date of the transfer. so, don’t do this.
    – sorry about the SMSs though, and there isn’t any synching, but Lifeblog is passable as a simple photo album. 😉
    i can’t gurantee that this works, but this is what i do to import my wife’s stuff.
    hope it helps.
    hmm, this would be a cool hack…

  5. I would like to use Lifeblog so I installed it(ver.1.6 from Lifeblog site) on my 702NK(6630 in Japan), but it doesn’t start. Some people can use Lifeblog(ver.1.55) on 702NK. I asked Nokia Japan about it and got an answer that they don’t test Lifeblog on 702NK.
    I’d like to try ver.1.55. Will you tell me where I can get ver.1.55 if you know?

  6. P.S. I asked about it to Typepad support and now got an answer that they can’t support Lifeblog but they tested ver.1.6(unsuccessful), ver.1.55(succsessful).

  7. Pls send me the current version of Lifeblog is compatible with the Nokia 6630

  8. whats the latest nokia out? i have a samsung e350 then i saw the nokias and they are suppose to be really good =)

  9. Nice stories… can u teach me how to make a blog if I have Nokia 6630 and I haven’t blog sites?

  10. Nokia Lifeblog application for use on Nokia 6682 phone is no longer available for distribution. The only way to get it is if it was already on the MMC card included with your phone. If anyone could email me the LifeBlog mobile phone program that works on the Nokia 6682 I would really appreciate it.
