LightSabre for Nokia 5800 & N97
Posted by Norman John in 3rd Party Application, 5800 XpressMusic, Accelerometer, N-Series, N97, Nokia

Light Sabre made its way to S60 5th Edition finally. Using the built in Accelerometer API of the N97 and the 5800 you can use your phone as a light sabre. It’s offering you several settings such as volume, sabre colour and more. This application is of course freeware and really funny when you show it to your friends.
Although it is developed for and tested on the Nokia 5800 only, it should works with 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 2 devices like Nokia N96, Nokia N85, Nokia N79, 6210 Navigator, as well as to Nokia E66 which is based on the Feature Pack 1.
- IMPORTANT install to internal memory ( C:/) drive (known defect)
- For best results turn off auto screen rotation in phone settings (otherwise you’ll get lag in the sound when the screen changes)
Here a video showing this application on the 5800 XpressMusic:

Kleines Problem, wenn ich darauf klicke, nichts geschieht, bleibe ich auf dem Grund mit allem die anderen Anwendungen

it works on my muym n96 but not on my nokia 5800 i install it and still the same problem. wont launch. i thought it was ment for the 5800 especially
Install it to phone memory, as it is a known problem with the card installation.
See the IMPORTANT just above the download button….
what a waste!!
in wich site i can download more them
worked for me! save on c drive, not memory card
installed it to c but got the same problem s as the other guys
It’s great fun! Now I have my own light sabre to wave at annoying people. Heeheehee. Love it!
same here i installed it on c but it still didnt work
what a bummer
I get the same prob as many others here – app installs but then won’t launch.
I think it is a firmware problem, seems to only work with V20, NOT V11 – which is what the phone is shipped with and what most people seem to have (Settings>Phone>Phone managment>Device updates). I’ve tried update using the update option in the ‘device updates’, but according to Nokia i have the latest version, which clearly i don’t.
I’m not sure i have the energy to fiddle with my phone to get this app working – IMO the developer should really either A) Fix it so it does what it says on the tin OR B) Give DETAILED instructions as to how to fix it oneself.
Those that CAN get it working, what version of firmware are you runningon your 5800XM?
Only interested in 5800 users here!

then i installed it to phone memory, the installer is on memory card…
the result: still not working…
then i place the installer on phone memory then installed it to phone memory…
the result: working perfectly…
hope this can help u all that cant install or open the application correctly…
sorry for my bad english…
Works perfectly on my N97. All i’ve done is put it on phone memory, with no updates
OK here is the thing: It is working but how do i make the hit sound? Soft itself says “Press Number key” but wtf? What number key? There are NO NUMBER KEY on 5800!!!
you hav to save to internal memory (phone memory) for it to work
