Links for n2o5 updated!

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 9:44 am

Hi guys!

I’m sorry for the download server issues…I’m also very sad about that, because I had everything on there…I have lost all my custom firmwares (I did not keep n2o or litv2, my first cfws, on my hdd), and all the files I put on that server :(

Anyway, thanks to 8910.cz, the most well-known i8910 czech community, we have all links back!

You can download n2o5 from here! http://www.8910.cz/clanky/firmware/440-n2o5-download-page

 


V

Server down + updates :)

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 1:48 pm

Hi guys! :)

I have received many emails saying that the download server is down…and it’s actually down now…the problem is this server was a gift from an i8910 user, TrollGyilkos (real name Istvan), whose email I don’t have at the moment, and I don’t know how to get in contact with him…Does anybody of you know him? Can you help me get in contact with him?

 

Updates:

Here are some updates about me :)

I have sold the i8910 about 10 days ago, and on the same day I received the Nokia N950, the MeeGo developer phone from Nokia! :)

So what are my current projects? :D

I have working on a very simple 3D Game written in Qt + opengl es 2.0! :) But since I have no experience in 3D programming, I often encounter performance problems :D

I plan to make the game available for Symbian^3 devices and Maemo/MeeGo devices! :) It won’t run on the i8910 unfortunately because S^1 doesn’t provide HW acceleration APIs…

Plus I have two university exams on 5th and 6th September (the game is for one of the two exams, as well as being an effort for N950 community), I have had only 4 days summer this year!! 27-31 july! And no vacation..this is a tough year, I hope I’ll pass the exams at least…

 

About n2o5:

There are so many people having problems with n2o5 because they HAVEN’T READ THE INSTALLING INSTRUCTIONS given on N2O5 Download Page. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!! :)

There will probably be an updated n2o5 with very few modifications, just to make it more difficult for people who don’t read instructions to mess up with it.

The changes will be:

-Qt application “Serv” removed from startup. Serv application was written by me and was used for Task3D and Nav3D mods. But being a Qt application, it could cause reboot loop for people who, IGNORING MY INSTRUCTIONS, have installed font managing software, such as FontRouter, FontZoomer, FlipFont, etc…Unfortunately Qt is not compatible with font softwares, there’s nothing I can do about that.

- Startbackup will be reverted to v0.99, which did not cause reboot loops (not as many as 1.02).

 

 

I hope you are all having a nice summer, and are enjoying your holidays! :) Have a nice day people!

 

Cheers,

faenil!

From a dear friend: ALIENWARE ITALIA FORUM!

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 11:42 am

Remember Sev7en? He was the first world cooker for i8910, joined right after by me.

A great guy, very friendly and passionate about what he was doing for the community. I still talk to him from time to time, and here’s what I discovered: he has opened the main italian forum about Alienware products, named AlienwareItalia!

I thought I’d let you know, in case you’re interested ;)

working on i8910tuning & n2o5 reboot loop

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 12:17 pm

Hi guys :)

I’m adding some features to i8910tuning app ;) I think this will be its final release anyway ;)

Thank you very much for commenting, I’m looking into making your wishes come true, even if some requests are just impossible to accomplish :)

If you have any other idea, feel free to comment ;)

 

About n2o5: since many of you had problems with this “reboot loop” I have never experienced, I want to look into this, because it seems to be so random and only happens to some people! :)

So, please, I NEED A WAY TO CAUSE THE REBOOT LOOP! If you know the steps to force n2o5 into a reboot loop, please LET ME KNOW, and I’ll look into that and solve it asap! I need steps which will ALWAYS cause the reboot loop. I need something like:

“Make hardreset. Flash n2o5. Install n2o5musthave. Install this and this. You now have reboot loop”

This is very important, I want to make the firmware the most stable, because it’s probably the last firmware you’re going to get from an i8910 firmware cooker :)

Licence keys for Xplore and LCG Jukebox for those who will help in this way! :)

 

This afternoon, wallpaper contests will be selected, and keys will be sent, so please check your emails if you think you can be the one to get them! :)

What are you missing on i8910tuning app?

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 6:49 pm

I’m still studying guys, last exam on 26th…omg, I can’t resist till that day, and it will be soooo difficult to pass!

 

Anyway…

 

Here’s what I want to know from you, is there any simple tweak that you are missing on i8910tuning?

 

Use your imagination, but don’t ask for big things, please. I.E no allow skype, no S^3 homescreen, no impossible things :P

Simply put, name something you’re doing manually on your i8910 and you’d like to have a software do that for you ;)

 

 

PS Contests winners will be announced after 26th, and Xplore and Jukebox keys will be sent to winners! :) Keys expires on August 2012

QtMobility fixed

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 9:59 am

To those of you who could not install qtmobility, there was a problem with the package on my server, it was not complete…

maybe there was some error during the upload…

I have reuploaded the complete package now, get it and install it ;)

Check its size after you have downloaded it, it must be 2505428bytes (2.38mb), the corrupted one was 1.8Mb more or less.

Official QtMobility 1.1.3 and updated modded OviStore 1.12.005 for n2o5!

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 12:15 pm

I have published the official package for QtMobility 1.1.3, I have tested it and it installs correctly on n2o5 ;)

If it doesn’t install or gives strange errors, don’t blame me, it has many dependencies and it’s conflicting with some components you have already installed for sure. The package I uploaded is the official one, signed by Nokia, and thanks to n2o5′s NokiaManufacturer patch it can be installed without any modding needed (this is why I said certificates+NokiaManufacturer are some of the most useful patch ever made for i8910 ;) )

so just check that you have enabled NokiaManufacturer patch in RomPatcher, and then install QtMobility 1.1.3 if you need it ;)

 

I have also uploaded the NEW OviStore 1.12.005, modded by Fevves! Install it, switch to 5800′s UserAgent using i8910tuning, and enjoy! :)

Some info about 8 fake bugs (fake = you think them to be n2o5 bugs, but they’re not ;) )

Category: Custom Firmwaresfaenil @ 5:04 pm

I read many comments of people having problems with n2o5 and blaming me for bugs etc :)

There are no confirmed bugs so far, maybe only one, which is not n2o5 related anyway….there are no bugs found in n2o5 so far ;) write in this post if you have any problem and I’ll try to solve them, and add relevant info to this post  ;) but please read this before posting!

 

let’s see what the FAKE BUGS are about ;)

1) Swype doesn’t work on n2o5 —-> IT WORKS, if you installed only max languages with n2o5_musthave.sis and you rebooted after installing n2o5_musthave.sis and after installing swype.

NOTE: YOU CAN’T INSTALL OFFICIAL DICTIONARIES ON MY MODDED INTERNATIONAL SWYPE, THEY WON’T WORK! THOSE DICTIONARIES ARE ONLY FOR OFFICIAL VERSIONS! IF YOUR LANGUAGE IS BETWEEN THOSE OFFICIALLY SUPPORTED BY NOKIA, DON’T USE MY SWYPE, USE THE LATEST OFFICIAL ONE AND INSTALL THE OFFICIAL DICTIONARY FOR YOUR LANGUAGE! ;) (many polish users made this mistake)

If you still have problems with swype, send me an email to faenil@i8910tuning.com with DETAILED info. Thanks :)

2) Phonetorch doesn’t disable LED flash —-> This is phonetorch’s bug, I have already talked to the author, and he said that he won’t solve that because he doesn’t know how to solve it, given that it only happens on some i8910 official firmwares

3) I can’t install OviMaps//// OviMaps doesn’t start!   —-> Have you installed S60SOA_1.1 before installing OviMaps? Probably not, read here  

NOTE: OviMaps 3.06 DOES NOT WORK ON i8910! YOU HAVE TO USE 3.04.278 WHICH I PROVIDE HERE

4) I installed OviMaps but I can’t find its icon! ———> OviMaps icon is in LBS folders in Menu!

5) Date of photos in Photo details is wrong by 1day and 1 hour! ——–> This is Samsung’s firmware bug, and it’s a known one, nothing to do about it ;) It’s always been there ;)

6) I can’t install QtMobility —-> Official QtMobility package is not compatible with i8910, I have to make a modded QtMobility package, I’ll do that in the next days and I’ll let you have the modded package ;)

7) I can’t install Qt 4.7.3! —-> You have to install Qt as one of the first components after you have flashed, because it has many dependencies on other softwares, and it could fail the installation if you install it when your phone already has lots of apps installed! ;)

8) I can’t login to facebook using Vivaz’s facebook app! ——> Facebook’s app bug! It seems like it can be solved by logging in with a WRONG password, and then with the correct one!

 

As you see, they’re all fake bugs, nothing related to n2o5, so please, just have some patience when you have problems before saying that my firmwares are bugged, because they’ve been tested enough to avoid stupid bugs :D

 

POSSIBLE TRUE BUGS, BUT NOT N2O5 RELATED:

1) I get my phone into an infinite loop, have to reset it to make it boot! ——-> StartBackup’s problem, I’ve sent an email to madhacker, startbackup’s coder, I’ll wait for his answer to give you further info about that….in the meanwhile, DO NOT USE STARTBACKUP, AND DELETE C:/Sys/bin/domainsrv.exe and C:/sys/bin/boot1.exe if you can them in C:/sys/bin folder!

 Anyway, startbackup works perfectly for lots of people, so there must be some other software conflicting with startbackup…
