Hey guys.
I have a Nokia N81 and i recently discovered that i can't install themes and apps that i download. i went into the settings and noticed that the software installation is set to signed only, so i changed it to all.
tried installing again and this time it went past that and actually started to install, but afterwards it says, not installed, and the phone freezes for a while, but it resumes after a minute or so.
Online certificate check is also set to Off.

Anyone know what it could be?
 
I have a Nokia e61i, I think it might be that the application your are trying to install isn't compatible with the newer OS. I'm not completely sure about that though. Where did you download the themes? I know from mobile9 some of the themes wont work on my phone either. Try to download a theme from here and test it out http://www.symbianthemes.us/nokia_n81/ I think you must make sure that the app or theme is compatible with the Feature Pack 1 of the Symbian OS

Thats quite a nice website you posted. I'm thinking of upgrading to the Nokia N81 end of this month, can you maybe tell me about your experience with the phone, the good and the bad. Thanks :D
 
Well I don't think it's that... coz i installed MXit on my phone when i got it... now there's a new version out... i download it and when it starts to install it still says unable to install....
 
I've found the problem!!! Kinda....
I did a software update(sigh wasted my time), still didn't work...
Then I thought of removing my memory card and then download MXit and it worked!!!
So there's probably some kind of virus or something on my memory card... Need to find it or just copy all important stuff and format it.
