I want to make CFW for Nokia E55
« on: February 12, 2014, 01:30:17 am »
Hi mates,

I need mods for S60v3 Fp1-Fp2. Could you share mods and experiences with me if you have.

It sounds good. :)

First step is;

-Performance tweaks (cpu, ram (startup and background apps), heap size, etc.)
-Remove unnecessaries files and apps

Mate, what about your ideas?

Well, my first task is obviously to get the ROFS2 that you are using ;)
The CenRep mods you refer to are the exact same (basically) as the S^3 keys. FP2 responds very well to CenRep massaging :D

i forgot to report back :P
Okay, so what exactly is on your list for tweaking? i can offer suggestions but i want to know rather precisely what you want in the edit.
Most "mods" for v3 are all Python apps, not actual mods at all, so those will have to be sorted out separate to the firmware side ;)

Mate,

I tweaked it :D (cpu-heap size.) It works well :) But ram capacity is 50mb around so it seems bad. I think I can manage with Starter.rsc or something but I need to know unwanted apps or process.

I want to remove all 3 party apps and unwanted files ( I removed quickoffice, adobe reader, zip manager, font magnifier, world travaler, ovi music, settings manager etc.)

I need to know more and more :)

I loved this phone :D

Drop this in C:\resource and reboot.
We have the exact same starter_non_critical_1.rsc and i know the changes made on this one are safe. It freed approximately 7MB for the E72.

This file works from C:\, so you can test and tune.
Also, did you get an answer about your NC54 C:\ drive?
i think i know what happened. You repartitioned, didn't you?

I partitioned with NC 3.4. Marco said; try with original UDA. So I will try without repartitioned.

It's an easy fix:
Open your original UDA and copy the contents to a folder.
Repartition, then open the new wiped out UDA and copy the contents back into it, then save it.
This happened to me once, too ::)

Why buy an ESeries and delete the Office Suite?
Font Magnifier is only 2MB, and i had the E72 up to a 333MB C:\ (total) with two languages. After all Qt, apps, etc. it was still over 250MB free.
Even now, on OFW i have all the apps i can stand on C:\ and reserve 175MB to go on C:\.

mods for S60v3 Fp1-Fp2. Could you share mods and experiences with me if you have.
By the way, all v3 mods are either ROMPatcher patches or Python apps.

Mate,

Your E72 is different than E55. E55 has 56mb with default. After cleaning it has 106mb.

Which QT apps could you open successfully?
