Review: BBCaller for N97 (+ 3 Free license)

October 9th, 2009

So here we are with our second giveaway. =)

BBCaller is a fun app which fakes an incoming call. After you start the application, a fake phone call will be activated after a delay (configurable, default is 30s). You can set the caller’s name/number and operator name, also you can choose whether to vibrate or blink during the fake call. When the fake call starts, press the red button to stop it. [Copied directly from the official site! :p ]

Note: If you set any other operator than your own, You will get a second line when your fake call comes. Most would not like that, so keep that in mind.

As of now, the ‘answer’ and ’silence’ button doesnt work [you will have to press the red button to stop the fake call], but i have had a talk with the developer and i think he will be updating it sometime soon.

This is a fun app which you may use to get out of sticky situations :p

FunApp – FingerPrint for N97

August 15th, 2009

FingerPrint : an app to lock-unlock your n97. This is more of an fun app and not security oriented but i guess it can be used for security purposes as well, if configured properly.

When the FingerPrint screen pops up, you need to touch your finger to the screen to be “scanned” for your identity, there will be vibration and beep sounds during the scan. The phone will be unlocked not depend on whose finger it is, but on how many beeps or vibrations since your finger touch the screen ;)
