Most of us have received what are almost certainly the final Symbian updates from Nokia; Belle FP2 for the Nokia 603, 700, 701 and 808 and Nokia Belle Refresh for the N8, E7, C7 and other older Belle phones. These updates broke quite a few apps including Swype, Nokia City Lens and Opera Mini.<\/p>\n<p>Nokia has said that City Lens won&#8217;t be fixed. But Opera Software showed it still has some love for Symbian users with the <a href=\"http:\/\/my.opera.com\/mobile\/blog\/2012\/12\/06\/new-update-release-opera-mini-7-0-3-final-on-s60\">release of Opera Mini 7.0.3 Final for Symbian<\/a> today. The new version works on all phones running Symbian S60V3 through Belle FP2. According to Opera, it contains the following Belle Refresh and FP2 specific fixes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed issue with displaying of Latin characters on phones running latest Nokia Belle firmware.<\/li>\n<li>Added navigation keys support in Belle FP2 virtual keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed overlapping of input fields by Belle FP2 virtual keyboard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I installed Opera Mini 7.0.3 on my N8. It works well with no issues. I have one of the unfortunate product codes (059C8T6) that still hasn&#8217;t\u00a0received\u00a0Belle Refresh and had no problems with the previous version of Opera Mini. But a <a href=\"http:\/\/my.opera.com\/community\/forums\/topic.dml?id=1583782\">user on the Opera Mini Forum<\/a>\u00a0has reported that the issue with missing font support (text displayed as little boxes) on his N8 with Belle Refresh is fixed. And\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.allaboutsymbian.com\/flow\/item\/16349_Opera_Mini_gets_big_update_for.php\">All About Symbian<\/a> has a story and screenshot confirming the keyboard fixes on FP2.<\/p>\n<p>Opera Mini 7.0.3 Final for Symbian can be installed by visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/m.opera.com\">m.opera.com<\/a> using your phone&#8217;s browser. Sideloaders can grab the .sis file at w<a href=\"http:\/\/www.opera.com\/mobile\/download\/versions\/\">ww.opera.com\/mobile\/download\/versions\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think the &#8220;Final&#8221; in this version&#8217;s name\u00a0necessarily\u00a0means that this is the last Opera Mini release for Symbian. Opera often uses &#8220;Final&#8221; to designate a non-Beta version. But Opera stopped\u00a0development for UIQ and Windows Phone shortly after the last device was released for those platforms so I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if this is the last Opera Mini Symbian release.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wapreview.com\/18862\/scr000001-4\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18867\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-18867 imgBorder\" title=\"Opera Mini 7.0.3 Symbian - Google+\" alt=\"Opera Mini 7.0.3 Symbian - Google+\" src=\"https:\/\/wapreview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Scr000001-240x426.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"426\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/wapreview.com\/18862\/scr000002-6\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18866\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-18866 imgBorder\" title=\"Opera Mini 7.0.3 Symbian - Accuweather\" alt=\"Opera Mini 7.0.3 Symbian - Accuweather\" src=\"https:\/\/wapreview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Scr000002-240x426.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"426\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a Nokia N8 user it&#8217;s painfully obvious that Symbian is a depreciated platform.
