On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	i have sent my n900 for warranty..need to change the whole circuit board..will take around a week or two due to no stock....it's because of the wifi connection..luckily still under warranty..sent it to one utama NCC..great service by the customer service there..i'd recommend any of you guys to go there.. QUOTE(dasonyeoh @ Nov 5 2010, 09:28 AM) Dear sifu out there, if i partition some space allocated for NeoPwn in my 8gb memory card will it affect my Nitdroid partition installed in the memory card? Formatting using this code CODE mkfs -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p1 Thanks it shouldn't effect your partition if u had already created partitions..NITDroid autoinstaller will take partition 2 AFAIK..i myself partitioned my 16GB into 4partitions.. First : for apps/musics/photos.. (FAT32 - 6GB) Second : NITDroid (ext3-2GB) Third : NeoPwn (ext3-4GB) Fourth : Extra space for ubuntu 10.10 (ext3 - 4GB) but u need to edit the /opt/neopwn/control-panel-ui/etc/conf.py and change the line that says "-t ext3 /dev/mmcblkXpX /.neopwn -o noatime" to the partition number of your emmc, so mine should be mmcblk1p3.. neopwn is running perfectly on my phone..edit..was...haha.. now my phone is with NCC..need to change the board

On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	QUOTE(dasonyeoh @ Nov 5 2010, 11:17 PM) i remember my nitdroid i installed using this mmcblk1p1 (manual installation). So if install NeoPwn should be mmcblk?p? anywhere you want..what is your nitdroid partition? the easiest way is to partition your sd card.. the question is which partition do u want it to be?it can be mmcblk1p1, mmcblk1p2, p3, p4 and so on depending on your sd card.. mind you that the neopwn needs atleast 4GB partition.. afaik, the nitdroid autoinstaller will take 2nd partition..i don't know about this as i havent try installing it..last time i installed it was 3months ago..which was still in early development, which at that time, there was no auto installer..everything is manual.. if u have sfdisk installed, try to type this: umount /media/mmc1 sfdisk -l /dev/mmcblk1 ((this will list the partitions on this device. If the device argument is omitted, then all partitions on the sd card are listed.) p1,p2,p3 stands for partition1, partition2, partition3 respectively.. Added on November 5, 2010, 11:51 pm QUOTE(ahtiven @ Nov 5 2010, 11:43 PM) whenever i try this code it gives me error "couldn't find package preenv" what's up? need extras devel to be installed? extra-devel doesnt even need to be installed..you have to add the URL,distribution, etc2.. to add extra devel, go into app manager, add catalogues, then new name : extra-devel url : http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel distribution : fremantle free non-free PLS NOTE THAT THE DISTRIBUTION IS FREMANTLE (with single "e") and not FREEMANTLE (double "e") This post has been edited by one1002: Nov 5 2010, 11:51 PM

On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	NEOPWN V2 INSTALLATION GUIDE i have modified some of the guide from Phonesfera N900 Pentesting to be noob friendly.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « USE SSH FOR EASIER INSTALLATION (Step 1) Install the following packages - CODE apt-get install bash pymaemo-optify python2.5-qt4 python2.5-sip4 rootsh (Step 2) Create a directory for the neopwn setup files - CODE mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/neo (Step 3) Copy get-it_files.tar.gz from your Pc/Mac to the setup folder by using OPENSSH or MASS STORAGE MODE scp /files.tar.gz root@(Enter N900 IP):/home/user/MyDocs/neo or transfer directly using Mass Storage mode to the folder home/user/MyDocs/neo (Step 4) Change to that directory CODE cd /home/user/MyDocs/neo/ (Step 5) Extract the NeoPwn setup files CODE tar -zxvf get-it_files.tar.gz (Step 6) Copy the files to their required directories CODE cp neopwn /usr/bin/ cp neopwn.sh /usr/bin/ cp neopwn.png /usr/share/pixmaps/ cp neopwn.desktop /usr/share/applications/hildon/ (Step 7) Restart hildon-home CODE killall hildon-home (Step 8) Setup the control panels User Interface CODE mkdir -p /opt/neopwn tar zxvf control-panel-ui.tar.gz -C /opt/neopwn/ STEP 9 AND 10 HAS TO BE DONE ON THE N900 TERMINAL* (Step 9) Install the kernel drivers CODE dpkg -i kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo40-wl1_armel.deb dpkg -i kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo40-wl1_armel.deb (Step 10) Flash the N900 CODE dpkg -i kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo40-wl1_armel.deb this will install kernel-power..reboot afterwards (Step 11) Unmount and Format your MicroSd ready NeoPwn files Method 1 - using the whole micro SD for neopwn CODE umount /media/mmc1 mke2fs -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p1 Now Reboot or Method 2 - Using specific partition for neopwn Use GParted to create and format the ext3 partition (eg: third partition of the microSD mmcblk1p3 - for .neopwn) NOTE AT THIS TIME, AFTER REBOOT, THE PHONE OR FILE MANAGER WILL DISPLAY AN ERROR "MEMORY CARD FORMAT UNSUPPORTED". THIS IS NORMAL. PLEASE PROCEED WITH THE STEPS. (Step 12) Make a directory for MicroSd card to be mounted on to the partition CODE mkdir /.neopwn (Step 13) Mount the partition Microsd card on the /.neopwn directory CODE mount -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p1 /.neopwn/ -o noatime (type this if you formatted the card using "mke2fs -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p1) or CODE mount -t ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p3 /.neopwn/ -o noatime (type this if you formatted the card using GParted and created an ext3 partition on partition 3-mmcblk1[p3]) IMPORTANT - COPY THE FILES w00t.tar.gz FROM YOUR PC/LAPTOP TO THE DEFAULT DIRECTORY OF PHONE (/home/user/MyDocs) BY USING USB CONNECTION -> MASS STORAGE MODE THEN CODE cp -r /home/user/MyDocs/w00t.tar.gz /.neopwn this will copy the w00t.tar.gz from the MyDocs to .neopwn..which will take quite some time (10-20minutes) FROM THIS STEP TO 17, COMMANDS ARE TO BE TYPED IN THE N900 TERMINAL ITSELF. (Step 16) Change to the /.neopwn Directory CODE cd /.neopwn (Step 15) Extract the files CODE tar -zxvf w00t.tar.gz (it'll take at least 45 minutes to 1 hour to extract due to the large file. Make sure the phone is connected to the charger to avoid data corruption while extracting) (Step 16) synchronize (Run twice just to make sure) CODE sudo gainroot cd /.neopwn sync sync (Step 17) Give permission for neopwn to execute CODE sudo gainroot chmod +x /usr/bin/neopwn chmod +x /usr/bin/neopwn.sh When done, do this (i prefer leafpad, but any editor is up to you - leafpad/vim) - ONLY DO THIS IF YOU USE METHOD 2 IN STEP 11 (using GParted to create partition), if not, you may skip this step and continue to step 18 CODE leafpad /opt/neopwn/control-panel-ui/etc/conf.py find and change the line that has "mmcblk1p1" to "mmcblk1pX" where X = neopwn partition, eg: mmcblk1p3 if neopwn is on partition 3. then save. (step 18) To be able to use packet injection, download the modules here http://rapidshare.com/files/429066238/injection_modules.rar and add the enable/disable packet injection to the desktop by : a)Enter through ssh and put the files "rmneo.desktop" and "insneo.desktop" (These are the shortcuts) in QUOTE /usr/share/applications/hildon/ b)Then put the icons stop.png and go.png in QUOTE /usr/share/pixmaps/ c)Finally,put the "rmneomod.sh" and "insneomod.sh" injection script in the folder QUOTE /home/user/ d)Disconnect from the SSH FROM THIS STEP ONWARDS, COMMANDS ARE TYPED IN THE N900 TERMINAL ITSELF. (Step 19) Give permission for the script to execute by CODE sudo gainroot chmod +x insneomod.sh chmod +x rmneomod.sh exit the terminal (Step 20) Add the shortcuts (Green Light, Stop Hand, and NeoPwn) to the desktops (THIS STEP IS OPTIONAL) (Step 21) Test if the packets injection is working and if the modules are being loaded correctly a)tap the "Green Light" icon to turn on packet injection b)type CODE lsmod \|grep wl12 to check the loaded modules b)and now ur card has turned into monitor mode. To be sure, test like this : CODE ifconfig wlan0 down iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor ifconfig wlan0 up aireplay-ng -9 wlan0 c)it should say "Injection is working!" (Step 22) Run NeoPwn V2 from the menu or desktop shortcut **AFTER THIS,WHAT YOU DO WITH IT IS YOUR BUSINESS..AS I WOULD NOT CREATE A TUTORIAL IN HOW TO CRACK WEP USING NEOPWN AND GRIMWEPA..PLEASE SEARCH IT YOURSELF (Step 23) After done cracking your target WEP, turn off packet injection to avoid high battery consumption by pressing the "Stop Hand" icon Check if the modules have been unloaded by CODE lsmod \|grep wl12 [[/B] This post has been edited by one1002: Nov 6 2010, 12:39 AM

On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	QUOTE(qwerty79 @ Nov 6 2010, 04:10 PM) I'm looking for N8 at one shopping mall then I saw N900 2nd sell at RM900 with warranty end April 2011. I played a bit with the phone and really like with its hardware keyboard and OS. I wonder, should I get this or aim for E7? Suddenly, I'm to attract with hw keyboard. Most of the time, I use my 5800 for (other than calling and sms): 1. Wifi 2. Movies 3. Camera Picture taken by sifu hengguowei, really poison me lor. better go with N8..can support HDMI output tv..camera is as good as N900 FCam if not better..games are abundant in N8.. u see N900 is an internet tablet-cum-phone..so phone functionality is limited to calling and texting..N900 doesnt have video call..N900 doesnt have mms on default..u need to download 3rd party app..and it'll charge u depending on the size of the mms (not the flat rate 50sen per mms).. but on the other hand..N900 is pack with multimedia functions..plus..hacking the system really makes it a top notch and a favourite phone for advanced users to change anything they like on the phone since most of it are open source.. if u are willing to learn the curves on the N900..then u are welcome to do so..for me..at first i got the N900..the learning curve of N900 is above average..not that easy mind you especially if u don't have any knowledge on linux commands.. N900 is based on linux..if u are linux literate user..then by all means..getting the N900 will be something you wont regret..there's so much u can do with it..it's just depends whether you are brave enuff to do it...

On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Nov 8 2010, 02:25 AM) Seriously I'll say this,those who are not willing to learn even the simple reflashing should not use/own N900 or any other NITs. I don't expect everyone to be pro's at linux but it's a simple steps plus it's also fun learning something new. As long as I'm TS I won't add this at FP or suggest this either. and i'm not expecting this to be added on the FP either.. it's not i'm demotivating people to stop learning though..but i was just sharing it.. =) i myself had some hard times learning linux..thus when i got the N900..i have some quite of a knowledge about linux commands too.. so no biggie for me.. it's just that (not pointing finger to anyone) there are some users who are really afraid of doing one of the basic stuff in N900..and that is MANUAL FLASHING.. 1. "i don't trust manual flashing" - it's not manual flashing u didn't trust..it was yourself who u didn't trust.. 2. "i'm afraid of flashing..afraid of doing something wrong" - this is obviously the most lame excuse to shout out about..MISTAKES IN FLASHING DOESN'T KILL YOUR PHONE.. 3.. "aiya..OTA upgrade is easier than manual lehh" - do you know that u can't flash the same firmware using OTA?meaning if u are currently in PR1.3, u can't OTA to PR1.3..only if you are in PR1.2, then only u can OTA to PR1.3... and guess what, all of these happen AFTER using/owning the N900.. now this you can add above the FLASHING PART on the FP to motivate N900 users to learn to manually flash their phone sorry super_evil_alien if my post doesn't help..i'll edit it..

On my way Senior Member 617 posts Joined: Jun 2009	QUOTE(jananan @ Nov 8 2010, 03:04 AM) its not a bad post at all... just we encourage learning instead of spoonfeeding... imho, those kind of programs can cause more issues sometimes... its just a script written in ms script or dos batch, that does things automatically for you. but its sure to run into problems when your machine is not 100% equal to the computer that it was developed on. things like which folder you're running from, or spelling of certain filenames and folders, even the drive that you installed your windows on can be an issue. just a simple glitch could cause issues to your computer as well. (some ms script codes, if not all, are considered threat by most anti virus programs) it is easy to flash manually, the script still requires you to reboot your phone, press U key and do all that stuff. it just automates typing this in your command prompt 'flasher-3.5 -f xxxfiascoxxx.bin -F -R' if you can download the script files, unzip it and set up the folder and copy all the necessary files in the right folder with the right names, i am sure you can type that command in too. (by you, i dont mean you one1002, i mean generically) your point is good.. that's y ASPIRE and SUPER_EVIL_ALIEN created the front page guide..it's full of basic informations.. nonetheless, there are still some users who come in, click on the last page, start asking questions which had already been answered on the FP.. we all know that reading the whole thread is a pain in the a.ss..but spend just a moment on the front page..thread starters created the FP for a reason..not just to be displayed.. so the reason i posted the link in my previous post were meant for those who i describe in my previous posts too.. but i forgot to add some sentence below the link which is "learning to flash manually doesn't cost u a single thing, except making u smarter and understanding the way N900 behaves".. Added on November 8, 2010, 3:29 amowh yeah..super_evil_alien..i wonder if you could edit the first post on the front page to add "NEW-COMERS, PLEASE READ THE FRONT PAGE BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT SOMETHING THAT OBVIOUSLY ARE INCLUDED ON THE FIRST PAGE. FAILING TO DO SO WILL RESULT YOUR QUESTIONS WILL BE IGNORED" bahahahahhahaa....that'll goes well with your nickname, hence super evil.. =P just kidding..

Anyway the FP manual flashing method is updated.Blame the forum's image limitation for the lack of pictures in "Manual Update B" Do check whether I typed correctly. hi super_evil_alien..i think it should be more noob friendly if you could add MANUAL FLASHING METHOD A - FLASHING THE FIRMWARE(FIASCO) ONLY and MANUAL FLASHING METHOD B - FLASHING BOTH THE FIRMWARE(FIASCO) AND INTERNAL MEMORY/EMMC 32GB(vanilla) this is to avoid confusing among new-comers on which one to choose..if they intend to flash only the firmware, afraid they'll chose method b..which will wipe away the internal memory too..
