Revised Method To Install Cambridge Talking Dictionary In Nokia 5800

If you have downloaded the free Cambridge Talking Dictionary from Nokia HK and puzzle about how to install this 80MB+ S60 application (SIS and data files), take a look at its installation guide in Readme.doc document.
I referred to this bundled MS Word document during the first installation too. Although it works for me but it seems not working for some people who then left comments on my earlier post here that based on the original guide.

Now, I would like to introduce you an alternative way, and perhaps an easier way, to install this bulky S60 dictionary on the touch touch baby.

As usual, I tested and proved that this revised guide works in my Nokia 5800 running device software version v21.0.025.

In fact, I came to know about this alternative installation after formatting Nokia 5800 (too nervous after found out that the new v21 firmware changes the touch keypad I used to enter alphabet-based security/lock code).

OK, stop telling you more nonsense and here is my revised installation guide to install Cambridge Talking Dictionary downloaded from Nokia HK:

1) Extract the TalkingDict.zip file in your computer. The extracted zip file contains 4 folders, 1 Word Document, and 1 SIS installation file.

2) Connect Nokia 5800 to computer and open File Manager program of Nokia PC Suite to copy only the “Data” folder and TalkingDictionary_S60_SA_signed.sis from computer to the root of microSD memory card.

If there is already a “Data” folder in the memory card, you may play safe by only copying “TalkingDictionary” folder from “Data” folder in computer to the existing “Data” folder in memory card.

3) Disconnect the phone from computer. Open the Nokia 5800 inbuilt File Manager program to browse the microSD memory card and click/tap the TalkingDictionary_S60_SA_signed.sis to begin installation.

Once the SIS installation completes, the Cambridge Talking Dictionary should be ready to use. If it fails again with other error, then I am curious to know why it doesn’t work on your phone :-(.
