I really can’t wait for Nokia N900

Tuesday, September 1, 2009

Nokia N900 has been finally announced, oh yes! This is the device I am really, really looking forward to get – even more than any new Android device that could possibly get released this Autumn/Winter. Having some previous experience with Nokia Internet Tablets, and now reading the official specs of N900 I can without much hesitation say that N900 is going to be groundbreaking device for Nokia and is quite likely going to lead the path that future handsets from Finland might follow.

When you pay for something upfront and then never get it, what that is? I’d say a theft. Having said that, turns out Nokia is a thief.

The Magic of Nokia E71

Wednesday, August 12, 2009

If I was ever trying to find the right way of describing differences between Nokia E71 and HTC Magic, I’d say that E71 is like loving, caring and hard-working but not-so-beautiful wife, while Magic is hot and sexy wamp, ready to please you in any way you want, but not care about you much after that.

Hacking Nokia E71 firmware version 300.21.012

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

This is assuming your E71 with 200-series firmware is already hacked with HelloOX and Open4All patch by ROMPatcher, and you have full access to c:\sys and others.

Now, here’s the thing to do before upgrading to the latest 300-series firmware using X-Plore (or any other file manager of your choice):

  1. Create y:\sys\bin directories
  2. Copy installserver.exe into y:\sys\bin
  3. Change attributes of y:\sys\bin\installserver.exe to Hidden, Readonly, System
  4. Assign the same attributes to y:\sys\bin and y:\sys directories

Upgrade the firmware. Once that’s done, install HelloOX (assuming it was already signed for your phone with OPDA certificate!) and execute it. It will do its job, making your E71 hacked and ready for Field Test Display aka NetMonitor again. :)
