How to Integrate Flickr to Share Online

Share Online makes it easy to post photos from your Nokia device straight to your photo sharing site. But what’s the use if it doesn’t support a photo sharing site of your choice?

I use Share Online to upload pictures taken from my device to my Flickr account via MobyPicture. But two days back I found that I can directly post it to Flickr through Share Online. So I quickly opened Share Online went to OPTION > ADD NEW ACCOUNT > UPDATE SERVICES. Nothing new appeared and utterly disappointed to learn that this particular service is only available to a handful of countries.

So what can we do if we are in a country like Sri Lanka, India or Saudi, which is not in the list? Fairly simple, just follow the following steps and you will be happy as I am.

Flickr on Share Online 4 (Nokia N78 – S60v3.2)

Configuring Flickr on Share Online 3: From your Share Online enabled Nokia device point your browser to http://m.flickr.com/nokia/signin/ then you will be prompted to login to your flickr account and then to download the .cfg configuration file.

Configuring Flickr on Share Online 4: The above mentioned method will not work. You will have to download the flickr_configuration_file.cfg file (95.5 KB) from here to your Nokia device and unzip it, then activate.
