Nokia Drive Hacked on to Other Windows Phones

Anton D. Nagy | November 21, 2011 3:49 AM

We’ve already seen reports of Nokia’s turn-by-turn offline navigation solution being ported to other Windows Phones and, just as we were talking about security issues (Nokia Maps and Nokia Music have also been hacked), the Drive application’s XAP is now reportedly fully hacked.

As you can see in the video below, Nokia Drive is working fine on the Samsung Focus which is really not an issue with the hardware itself. Drive was supposed to be an exclusive to Nokia Windows Phones in order to differentiate from other devices running the same OS. Well, Nokia can kiss that goodbye with the community hard at work. Major red flag for Nokia and Microsoft!
