This morning Nokia Conversations released a new theme for older S60 phones that want the new Ovi icons look. Being the icon nut I am, I downloaded to see if there was any new icons that would come in a future firmware update for the 5800. In a quick look I found those 6 new icons (excuse me if I missed any). I like the “new” Music folder icon, as I wasn’t too keen on the reflection effect of the Album cover like one, it seemed a little forced.
It also fixes a couple 3d-ish Nseries icons, and the Video Centre icon (which I knew didn’t look right in the first place). Although I did not get the new Share Online icon, weird because it did appear on my N95. I’d also change the dict icon, as ABC doesn’t represent translation that well, maybe a stylized globe?
Shame the Music Folder and Games and GPS folder on my N95 wasn’t changed, I really don’t like that Nokia is moving away from folders, but then again, I never like the default menu order.
And at last, I’ll leave a shout out for the 6600, as its theme app let you use the icons of one theme with the graphics of another, a feature that was cut and never came back sadly. Best mention of this feature I could find: A thread on AAS about how to replicate it on later S60v2 phones.
Update: Just notice the ringtones included in the theme are the same one I found here. :P
