cool things to do with a 2011 nokia phone?

#1 Post by dule74 »

i have this nokia c7 that my mom used, but then later gave to me so she can call me until i got my own phone
what are some cool things to do with it other than throwing it off the 10th floor and posting it on youtube? the web browser and app store are broken and it has a few games.

my ideas:
find cool angry birds apk and install it so you can game on the go
use it as a camera (maybe webcam?)
use it as some kinda server or something (idk how to do that. i use a laptop from 2005 as my other server)

theres always those pages that show up and are like "wo useful things 2do with old phone" but almost all of them use modern apps that cannot be installed on the old devices. I have an iPad mini 1 (released 2012) with iOS 8 that i spent forever trying to do something useful with but I cannot install anything, I can't even sign into the app store to try to install anything.

i think im done with mobile devices. the only real one I had was that ipad but they make me so mad. 10 year old ipad is practically a brick now, while my 12 year old laptop is still working perfectly fine, and is 1000x more useful any day (still 100x more useful even when that ipad was new)
i cant believe youve done this

i already have angry birds on it but theres only like 5 levels
also the thing with nokia devices is that they run some symbianos whatever its called instead of android which makes it harder to mess around with because nobody uses nokia anymore
i also have this old samsung tablet which i might use

Well it is a touchscreen symbian phone with seemingly no java me app support (and even if it did have it, there would probably be little to no apps that supported touchscreen only). You can probably install Opera Mobile 12 for symbian which is a much better browser than the default HTML one and it probably has touch support too, and the nokia c7 does have wifi apparantely so i guess you can visit the dvd3000 page on it if you really want to. I know that you can play a touchscreen version of Doom II RPG and Wolfenstein RPG (yes, those WERE made by id software), and that there used to be a wide range of emulators (Gameboy,NES,GBA,SNES and Genesis emulation) but i am unsure wheter they are touchscreen compatible. Really the biggest problem is that it has no keypad of any kind. If you want to do something with a nokia phone then you should get a java (or a symbian phone if you only want to play emulated games) with wifi support (if you really want to browse the internet)
