Hacks for Nokia 5800

So my sister was nice enough to decide to go for a new phone and hand me down a Nokia 5800 XM(the one on the right..:P)

Previously I had a Samsung Corby Txt which was pretty good a s a multimedia phone with nice music quality and all. What it lacked was ease of use.. Not for every body but especially for me..

U see owing to my BIG HANDS 



And NO NAILS..


It was pretty tough for me to type..
Not anymore though.. I use a stylus(that toothpick like thing that comes with a touchscreen phone which most of you have lost or never owned).. I have managed to take care of it and still own it after 3 months of getting the phone..
So it was a boring Symbian series 60 phone.. with the default interface as shown in the pic above..
From my (very bad) experience with Nokia N72 I knew  downloading themes from www.zedge.net was a very very bad idea.. It corrupts the phone entirely and requires frequent phone updations.
So I went to the (not very) famous www.store.ovi.com.
And found Voyager home, which made my phone look like an apple iPhone an HTC combined look. It was an interface shell which takes over the phone entirely and manages apps its own way.
Here's a small preview of what my phone looked like:-

So for anyone who wishes to download this interface click here..

After using this theme for more than 2 months.. I got bored.

So then i started the search for something to make it look like a google android phone..
I am completely in love with google android and will buy a android based phone asap..
I came accross SPB shell which makes my phone look like:-


So in short SUPER COOL..
I have widgets, short cuts, wallpapers.. everything Oh god everything!!!
Wait.. I'm gonna cry.. sob..
So for all fellow symbian victims, SPB can be found here..
This is a lite version meaning its not a complete thing which I am using..
The complete thing can be found...
On the net.. Go search for it urself.. Freebees.. HUH!!
