I did have thought of installing the beta neopwn but I was afraid of running into another Navit like fiasco.
Full version should be near now.I read it somewhere that full version of neopwn will be released before end of this year.

Anyway on other hand,is it even legal talking about neopwn here? sweat.gif

PS/WARNING : No more flaming here!If there is someone who started it again & somehow as TS I get any verbal/suspension warning,I'll be very unhappy.Trust me,you don't want me to be unhappy. bruce.gif

it's legal to talk about neopwn as there's nothing illegal about it..neopwn is a wireless-security tools..it depends on the color of your hat.. =)

if u have the files..i can write a tutorial for u if u want... =)

sure..give me the time to compile everything first..but my tutorial i wrote is for myself as i jotted down what i did..

just for you to know..i used GParted live cd to partition my 16GB class 4 into 4 partitions.. :

CODE
Partition 1 : (PRIMARY) Fat32 - Memory Card - Size = 6GB (for apps/music/etc2..)
Partition 2 : (PRIMARY) ext3 - .neopwn - Size = 4GB (this is for neopwn)
Partition 3 : (PRIMARY) ext3 - nidroid - Size = 2GB (for android)
Partition 4 : (PRIMARY) ext3 - leave as blank - Size = 4GB (extra partition)


so, i typed mmcblk1p2 in order to mount it..

p1 is partition 1..p2 is partition 2 and so on...

QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Oct 30 2010, 01:23 AM)
The program itself is legal but what we use it for is illegal? tongue.gif

I'll wait for the full edition.If it's not released by end of this year then I'll be using the beta.I have the files.
*
illegal?yes and no sir...because for wireless security experts, this is legal...but for hackers wannabe..yes it is illegal.. =)

good for you to wait for the full edition sir.. =)

anyone felt the phone getting more warm then before after upgrade to PR1.3?

check HTOP for any big usage on the CPU..

and don't forget to turn off GPS..(settings-->location-->untick GPS and Network Positioning)..

and change the "Connect Automatically" in internet connections to "Always Ask"

this are the main culprit for battery drain,CPU usage, and thus making the battery hot..

Ok then.This will be a very short bulk.
I'll close this on Thursday.Anyone who are interested pm me so I'll remember you.

do u happen to know if they sell 16GB class 10 too?and how much is it..?

but what about the quality of the card itself?

i once got myself DNA 8GB class 6..it dropped from coffee table height to the floor..which was about 2feet high..then the pc cannot detect..laptop or phone or memory card reader too..

sent it for an exchange...came back home..purposely dropped the microSD card from the same height, same result..
sent it again for exchange..test again purposely..still same..exchanged for 4times..so..i got my full refund back.. tongue.gif tongue.gif

so the question is, is this Kingmax reliable?

browserd is a process of microB. it usually takes place when there's any update on your widget (twitter, facebook, OMweather, etc) that constantly updates itself..

this is what i can think of..

kill it via X-Terminal.
You can also do it if you have HTOP app.
Restarting your phone is another way.

It happens sometimes when you close the browser but it didn't close successfully. They call this memory leak? Not sure.
This problem quite famous for Internet Explorer...

yes..memory leak is what they call

i got a 4GB SDHC kingmax class 6. (not microSDHC)

i've used it for for booting multiple flavors of linux on my netbook.

formatted at least 50 times i think, copied tons of GB of linux images back and forth.

been working fine so far, no issues.

i can say its a pretty good card.

then if they have 16GB class 10, i could order em..but is it truly class 10?

need to check that speed using software..not only from the outside..

For most of us, yes, it's a good buy. For me, it's definitely a good buy; If I have the money, I would buy another one.
But that's me or for most of us here.

It depends what you want, what you're looking for, etc.
The N900 is a mobile computer (Internet Tablet) with added Phone Functionality.
The OS is beyond or higher class above smartphone OS level; after all, it's an Internet Tablet basically.
You can think of it as a notebook/laptop, with touchscreen at the size of a handphone, then slapped on with phone funtion; The major difference is, it's running Linux based OS instead of Microsoft Windows, and the spec is only 600Mhz  with 256MB ram (+768 Virtual Memory).

If you're emphasizing on phone functionality, or phone functionality is important to you (e.g. 3G Video Calls, MMS, etc), then you might want to re-consider. This N900 phone functionality, is very basic (although now you can extend some of it's features via 3rd party app/plugins).
The thing you'll appreciate is the integrated Instant Messaging accounts into the phone book, and also the CONVERSATIONS where all your SMS and IM messages is kept. You don't need to run anymore 3rd party social networking applications anymore. When you go online on the N900, it will auto login to these IM you set.
You'll appreciate the multi-tasking as well, because it offers true multi-tasking and it's very nice.
Web browsing is also splendid on this device, you can browse Desktop version web page; You might even don't want to use your laptop anymore, you can browse on the N900 almost anywhere conveniently.
The cons of N900:
1. Not much games like those in iPhones; Altough now there is WebOS games, but with lack of multi-touch, those games that utilize/requires multitouch will be hard to play or unplayable.
2. Need patience and willingness to learn and improve yourself with skills/knowledge; It is a complicated device afterall, but it'll help you become a more knowledgable and skillful user in technicals areas.

Basically, there's many pros of the N900, but depends on what you want and what's important to you. If you don't care about all those, the pros of N900 will become meaningless to you.

owh and you forgot to mention we can boot into several different OSes.. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

1. Maemo - default OS
2. NITDroid @ Android 2.1 - Nitdroid (Native installed)
3. Ubuntu - Ubuntu Desktop (Native installed)
4. SHR @ Stable Hybrid Release - SHR Stable Hybrid Release (Native installed)
5. Meego - Meego on N900 (Native installed)
6. Easy Debian - Easy Debian (installed on top of Maemo)
7. PalmOS Garnet VM - Garnet VM on N900 (installed on top of maemo)
8. LXDE (via Maemo/Easy Debian) - LXDE + Ubuntu Mobile (installed on top of maemo)

but this are only for people who knows what they're doing and understand the risks of having to reflash/reformat the phone..

Yup, actually to list out the pros, it's too many, but depending on the person, it may not be meaningful. So, it really depends on what the person wants/needs or interested in.
Some people only want 'KENG' camera in their phone, some looking for games, etc.

For me, I want a smartphone that work very much like a computer, gives lots of flexibility, customization, powerful, multitasking, integrated stuffs (like IM), nice cool/futuristic UI (like Maemo's button, progress bar, Desktop), nice web browsing experience, etc.
The Desktop concept totally bring this device to a different level, well actually, I think this is how it should be. There's so much flexibility and customization can be done on the Desktop. It's one of a kind.

Anyway, I can just say, I've never been so hooked on to a phone before and always using it; I seldom need to touch the notebook or computer unless I need to do somethings that cannot be done on the N900. And best of all, I don't use IM or MSN on my PC/laptop anymore, it's fully on N900. The integrated concept is really good. I thought Symbian^3 will have something similar, too bad, nothing close to N900/Maemo.

i second this..for the moment, i'm trying to search for a tutorial to install KUBUNTU with phone functionality.
