N95's Symbian9.2 on N93i---Is it possible?

2 replies · 2,599 views · Started 03 October 2009

The N93i has the (exactly) same CPU and Ram as the original Nokia N95---So is it possible for N93i to run symbian9.2, s60v3 FP1---OS of N95?

If so, N93i would have support for SDHC, better RAM, support for widget, ovi maps---everything N95 can do, they have the same hardware.

Can I do it this way: If I extrect some (unique) files from N93i rom (fw 3.0), i.e the camera app, cuiphone(the process for rotating the screen when twisting), setting ect. Then put it in N95 v2.0 fm, and use phenex refresh it on N93i??

or is there any better solutions? Or use rom-patcher? I need some advice...

Thank you! !

Never seen anyone succesfully do anything like that.

Irritatingly its the sort of thing thats done semi regularly on the WM platform, but doesn't appear to be possible on Symbian.

The most likely outcome of applying FW from one model to another is a bricked (dead) handset and an invalidated warranty.
Downgrading FW versions (for the same model) is apparently possible, but you need special hardware and software on your PC to do this.
