have you read this...

http://finestfones.blogspot.com/2008/03/symbian-92-has-been-hacked.html

and then this? (scroll down to the orange text then read from there)

http://finestfones.blogspot.com/2008/03/guidetutorial-how-to-install-unsigned.html

it's confirmed working by me at least, dunno if other people have had problems with it.

I dont have any probs with it no... and works well in the car which has gsm BT module.

One thing Im not sure about though is that using this and conversation and the inbox to monitor messages, might cause some corruption at some point...?

OH, and the above links... seeing as you asked the initial question... I might suggest you dont want to go hacking deep into the N95 setup... but hey, your choice. 😉

thanks munkii...

I've been trying to get this to work using the steps following the orange text in your 2nd link...

"1) copy all the .py files from the Resource folder in the zip file into C:\RESOURCE on your phone.
2) copy the unsigned sis you want to install into the root of the mass memory on your phone and if needed, rename it to something simple, for example, change "finestfonesownz123456unsigned.sis" to "finestfonesownz.sis"
3) you'll now need to edit the UnsignedInstaller python script that's in the zip file by using notepad. Once you've opened it, hit CTRL+F and search for myunsigned which should bring you to that line. Edit "myunsignedfile" to the name of your application, so in my case it would be called finestfonesownz.sisx. Once you've edited the file, save the file and copy it to the Python folder on your phone.
4)On your phone, open the UnsignedInstaller using Python and wait for it to finish and your app will now be in your applications folder!"

However when it comes to running the final step, i get this

File "E:\private\2000b1a5\default.py", line 81, in menu_action

f()

File "E:\private\2000b1a5\default.py", line 65, in query_and_exec

execfile(script_list[index][1].encode('utf-8'😉, script_namespace.namespace)

File "e:\python\UnsignedInstaller.py", line 32, in ?

import sisinfo, sisfields

File "c:\resource\site.py", line 112, in platsec_import

raise ImportError("No module named "+name)

ImportError: No module named sisinfo

So....still fail. Driving me up the wall :frown:

i think i see the problem.

The first step of the instructions says:

"1) copy all the .py files from the Resource folder in the zip file into C:\RESOURCE on your phone."

however i can't create a folder on the root of C:, i get a message saying 'the phone rejected the operation'

any ideas how to get around this?

edit: had a dig around and found the hidden folders on C:, including 'resource', however i can't see them on my PC even with the 'show hidden files and folders' option' selected in explorer

switching them on in explorer on phone makes no difference u need to switch them on in PC

To view the hidden folders on your PC ,
1.connect phone TO pc using USB choose DATA TRANSFER MODE,
2.Now on your PC go to my computer
3.THen at top of creen click tools (this is how to on XP in vista its simlar look around you'll find)
4.then folder options
5.then tick box what says show hidden files and folders

So to break it down do this

My Computer>Tools>folder Options>Show hidden files and folders<TICK

now u will see hidden folders of you phone in data transfer mode
instruction 1. is optional you can connect at any time
