Hi,
Sorry for the lengthy response time. I've talked to our testing department and we've confirmed the bug and are working hard to fix it.

Thank you for your patience..

It does work on the N97 - I have a 5800XM which uses S60v5 as well, and it's mostly fine. You're right that the password isn't masked (that's been raised on here), there's a bug where you can't add songs to existing playlists and there seems to be some issues with listening offline, but everything else works fine, and in answer to your question, yes it is compatible with the N97.

Seconded. Please can we mask the password on entry.

If the E71 is anything like the N95, there is a constant hiss whenever sound is active - you can hear it on the music player and even ringtones. It's purely down to the electronics of the phone. I don't hear any hissing on my 5800XM, on Spotify or anything else.

I am getting this too. It's as if it's only downloaded part of the track to the phone, as going back online resolves the problem.

I don't know why they use that silly custom on-screen keyboard as it's so much more cumbersome than the full-screen QWERTY. It may look better but makes the app less user-friendly.

A comment on the question "How to add album to playlist on Symbian" in Spotify:

Not yet, perhaps because I raised it as a question rather than a problem. I've e-mailed support to bring their attention to it. – grebble, on November 24, 2009 20:55

Search for the album, open the track list, select the options on any track (tap and hold on touch screen devices), and you will see the option 'add album to playlist.' But due to a bug, at least on S60v5 devices, adding to an existing playlist won't work.

Symbian: can't add songs to existing playlists

I'm using a Nokia 5800XM. I am unable to add tracks to existing playlists - if I select 'add to playlist' on a song, the song does not appear on the playlist. However, if I select 'new playlist' a new playlist is created and the song added. However, I am not able to add any more songs to it.

grebble replied on November 23, 2009 12:34 to the update "Spotify for Nokia and more" in Spotify:

I've been waiting for this, and have subscribed to Premium. Very impressed as a whole! Some points to note (I have a Nokia 5800):

- Landscape mode is not supported (would look good on desk stand)
- Custom keyboard was not necessary and is more difficult to use than the on-screen QWERTY - can we use the Nokia one please
- Can't add songs to existing playlists (they don't appear after adding them).

Other than that, though, it's a great app. Keep up the good work!

I hope the Plazes staff don't mind me posting this, but I have found a way round this problem by writing a Yahoo! Pipe to filter out future entries from your public Plazes RSS feed. Try it here - it works for me :-)

You'll need to input your user ID as found in your profile URL (eg. 261145). Then click Run Pipe and it'll do the rest for you - it'll even display your entries on a map.

One thing to note, however, is that it doesn't work if you have included an end time as that causes the year to drop off the scheduled start date. But otherwise it's fine.

Hmm. Integration with favourites in Nokia Maps maybe? Now we're talking!

grebble replied on October 16, 2008 10:20 to the question "Any plans to get location from Fire Eagle?" in Plazes:

I agree with PolarFox. It seems very fiddly and old fashioned to have to type in the address of the place I am at. I have an integrated GPS receiver in my Nokia N95, and I would like to make use of that to create Plazes, and Fire Eagle is the ideal medium. It would be far easier, for example, to create a Plaze with 'Drinking coffee @Starbucks, FE' (or similar) rather than 'Drinking coffee @ Starbucks, 24 High Street, Anytown, AN1 1NY.'
