Skype on Nokia 9300i

I decided to write this short article because I found really hard, not to say impossible to find a Skype for Nokia 9300i on the Internet.

It appears there is no official release of a Skype for the Nokia Communicator 9300 / 9300i mobile.
However there are releases of Skype for older Nokia Communicator mobile phones which luckily are compatible with the Nokia 9300i symbian s80 OS platform.

After some experiments of testing the older Skype releases on my Nokia 9300i mobile I’ve found out that actually the version of Skype dedicated for Nokia 7370 works perfectly fine on the Nokia Communicator 9300i phone.

The installation of Skype on the Nokia 9300i prooved to be a piece of cake:

All I had to do was:

1. download the release of the Skype for the Nokia 7370

2. Transfer the Nokia 7370 jar java file to my mobile

3. Use the Nokia 9300i File Manager application to install the

For some convenience of people who owns the Nokia 9300i mobile and want to have the Skype for their mobile I’ve made a mirror of the nokia7370 under the name nokia_communicator_skype_9300.jar.
The mirrored file nokia_communicator_skype_9300.jar can be downloaded from here

Well that’s all, all left is to enjoy Skype on your Nokia 9300i mobile 🙂

      Hello zubair,

      You will have to use the Nokia File Manager program to install the downloaded jar file. Also make sure you don’t have restrictions concerning the java. The java settings are somewhere in the phone Control Panel. Hope this helps.

      Best!

    Hi Zubair,

    Did you tried also the binary.
    http://www.pc-freak.net/files/nokia7370.jar

    It might be that the binary http://www.pc-freak.net/files/nokia_communicator_skype_9300.jar has some issues, because I have changed the file name.

    Please try with nokia7370.jar and tell me if it works, if it not I’ll dig in my archive and find a working copy of the binary.

    Hope this helps,

    See you around!
    Georgi

      Hi if you use skype via wireless it is possible the wireless signal is low. Sometimes it does this problem when wireless signal is low on my phone.

      Best,
