No Pandora - We still got Nokia Music - SG version!

Nokia Music and Music + also comes to Singapore | WMPoweruser

We posted yesterday on Nokia Music coming to UAE. Today we can report that Nokia Music, Nokia’s free streaming music radio service, is now also available in Singapore.

Both the themed and curated mixes and the Music+ service, which offers higher quality streaming and unlimited skipping, is available there, with the Music + service costing S$7 per month.

The app is Nokia Lumia exclusive and can be found in the Nokia Collection section of the Windows Phone Store.

Via Hardwarezone.com.sg, thanks LastBattle for the tip.

Temple run is coming out soon, like literally soon.

Funny, searching for it doesn't yield any results, only clicking on direct links.

Anyone tried Unification? I don't seem to have any notification from gleek or flyby. But my battery drain at an insane rate. In 5 hours, my battery drain to 20%.

Cant buy App - Check location

Hi guys,

Will like to ask a few questions on "CANT BUY APP" . Check your region.

1) Have to do a HARD RESET on your phone, ie all your previous apps all gone? cannot manually reinstall via Windows Phone market place?

2) If I go to US, or Europe, can I downdown those apps ? - via Wifi / or their local SIM CARD with data plan?

or die die cannot, cos they know my phone is registered under Singtel?

3) Is there any other ways? (ie I change the Language + Region inside setting) also dun seem to work

4) I know certain apps like Pandora (DIE DIE cannot work) - so lan lan ...I can live with that ...but other apps ...I am curious to try / play around

Is there a reason why certain apps, are not available in SG, is it because the developers need to pay more $ to have local access ? ?
or what is the reason other than "patent/ loyalties" that certain apps cannot be used in SG?

thanks and I hope I can get some replies / advice

cheers!

1) changing region does the trick.

2) nope, your region is still under SG

3) why doesn't it work? You can try searching Nokia Reading under SG, won't yield any results. Now change region to US, will require a reboot, you should be able to install it.

Copyright issues. For etc., apps like Pandora, Spotify, they're music streaming apps & due to some dumb US laws, they do not allow streaming overseas.
