Congratulations to our winners! We would also like to thank all who entered the contest, keep reading The Nokia Guide as we have more great contests planned.

We’ve all been there: dropping your brand new Nokia smartphone, spilling a cup of coffee on it, serving as your pet’s latest electronic toy or even bricking your device during a software update. As result the data stored on your Smartphone is thought to be lost forever.

That’s why we’ve teamed up with our friends at RecoverMySmartphone to bring you our “Save My Data” contest. The guys at RecoverMySmartphone are experts at recovering data from broken or bricked smartphones. They can have the data recovered or even copied to another device.

Up for grabs is their recovery service of a bricked or damaged Smartphone, each valued at a cool $249.97 (3 of them to be exact.)

The contest ends at Midnight  on the 28th of January and the winners will be announced on the 29th. Good luck!

First of all I want to thank everyone who submitted their logos. I must say that I received some great entries and that in the end when it came time to choose a winner it got really difficult. Especially when I couldn’t decide between the last two logos as they were both fantasic! But in the end I just had to go with the one that I felt that really does justice to what “The Nokia Guide” is all about. It was it’s simplicity and direction indicator, similar to one I was using for post about the Urbanista Diaries is what did it for me.

So, without any further ado ladies and gentleman here are our winners:

4^TH Place: Hugo Matos

3rd Place: Rita El Khoury

2^ND Place: Gustokonyan.

And the winner is……James Burland!

Congratulations to the finalists and our winner James, who is now the winner of the 8GB Sandisk microSDHC which was provided by our friends over at Moby Memory.  For everything memory related for your Nokia devices be sure to check out Moby Memory.

Due to several request and especially to give everybody enough time to enter the contest has now been extended till the 25^th. All I want to say is thanks for the many entries and good luck to everybody!
