http://www.uiqblog.com/2008/0[....]rivate-folderseven-on-c-drive/

Tested and confirmed...i can now read/write in the c:, d: and z: drives, in all the folders that were not accessible before

This opens alot of possibilities: porting walkman player from w960 to p1, profiles apps, changing all the menus and icons, etc, etc


Posted by defiantbeast

MORE GOOD NEWS THEN

it's time to celebrate

cheers

Posted by Sebby
I'd love to see Magic Profiles for UIQ3.

Posted by tranced
@sebby: did you manage to make this?

Posted by Sebby
Make what?

Posted by tranced
have you done what ares' said?

access to the protected folders.

Posted by Sebby
Haven't tried. I've no interest doing it directly, but if it opens the doors for greater things, then I'm happy.

This is really great news. I will be sure to watch out for ports of useful software.

And by the way, for people who are a bit paranoid about opening there devices (to potential malware), I assume it would be just as easy to close the access again after you are done 'modding' the phone.

Anyway, I haven't tried this yet, but this is something that will have a huge impact on customization! I am all for it!

Posted by Nipsen
Great. I guess this means it's finally possible to add a few shortcuts to opera, and fix the zoom- interval to something useful .

Anyone want to experiment with the wlan- settings?

Posted by razec
Does this also mean we can mod the camdriver and acoustics of UIQ 3? seems great if it does!

Posted by Nipsen
It would be extremely difficult to do much about the data that isn't externalised in some resource- files... But replacing modules, at least.

Posted by SKIBBE
like putting my w900i cam module to my w960i? that will make me cry off happyness

Posted by myth®
Be warned !

This messes your phone permanently.

This morning I browsed the folders of c:\private and z:\private. using X-plore.

Nothing else, I didn't modify or delete anything..

After a while I tried to start X-plore again but it didn't work.

"Application could not be started" is what I got.

Then I tried to start otherr apps, butI got the same error for all of my user-installed apps and games.
Only built-in apps worked.

Of course I did a master reset and format afterwards which were [or better seemed to be] completed with success.

But here it comes:

When I try to install my apps , I get the prompt that some files are already present, and this happens with all apps.

So better think twice before doing it as this hack seems to be in a beta stage for now..

P.S. All my appps were previously installed on c and I experienced this while trying to install them again on c:.
Mem stick is not involved.

reboot the phone, and you will be fine...the hack is not permanent...

Posted by myth®
reboot ares ?

err, I went though a couple of restarts while formatting and resetting

Nope, this doesn't work..

A reflash might help, but I will have to wait until GW1 is back..

Posted by ares
well...my phone is ok...i did have some problem with x-plore before making this work, then i rebooted, and everything is fine

when you reboot, you loose access to the protected folders, and have to repeat the process from the pc...

you may want to uninstall that sis file if you have problems

Posted by myth®
@ares

I haven't installed apptrk.sis after format + master reset...

Posted by ares
well...all my apps are on the memory card - that´s the best thing to do anyway, if you want to make a proper restore...

Posted by myth®

I never install anything on m2, but this is irrelevant.

Fact is that this app has messed my phone somehow and I am no longer able to do a proper reset anymore, since (parts of the) apps remain in the phone.


Posted by mazi
I think if u go to hidden menu and format internal memory then everything is ok....


Posted by myth®
@mazi

As mentioned in my previous posts, I already tried both several times, format (through service menu) and master reset (through OS).

Doesn't help..

Posted by ares
this is been used by alot of people, both in UIQ3 and s60 v3, and i did not see mention of such problems...so far...i am sure this can provoque problems though, its a very powerfull hack, and should be used with care



Posted by dr_thug
Ahh...can we expect to have some fixes for what SE never bothered to provide?like non blurry pics and many more??

Am sure some Russian website will be putting up some useful stuff soon using this soon

Posted by tranced
mine's ok. i have explored some folders and i havent seen any problem.

Posted by TheGlassJAw
could this be used to add iSync support to the m600i?

Guys, problem solved..

I'm not sure if this is what has fixed my problem, but I formatted my m2, removed it, performed another format & master reset on my phone (without m2), and now it is back to normal..

Strange..

And now its time to reinstall the hack..

Posted by tranced
i cant seem to copy the sys folder to my memory stick. who's managed to do it?

Posted by myth®
@tranced

I just reinstalled the hack and copied ALL folders fm c: and z: to my mem stick. Try it with X-plore instead of SM.


But there is another thing I noticed...

It seems as if it fails to copy some of the folder contents.

Example:

When I check the folder properties via X-plore:

C:\private has 85 folders, 173 files, 6.9 MB while the copy on

D:\private has 85 folders, 158 files, 6.6 MB

i´ve seen people posting all the content of their file systems...

also think it can be done on the PC using XS++




Posted by tranced
my private folder has 303 files and 121 folders

@ares: with xs? full access system?

Posted by technical-expert
@ares



How to change icons like this, easy way (
I'm fed up of my p990 icons

Posted by tranced
if im not mistaken, the icons files are located at:

Code:
\Private\a3f\import\Apps\NonNative\Resource



Posted by technical-expert
@tranced

Please step by step how to change main menu icons

Posted by wueyue
Are you able to change the shortcuts in main menu?

For example on P1 in the middle shortcut in top row is "Settings", are you able to change this to "Browser" like on W960?

Posted by Hobbs
Getting very interesting.
Keep it up guys.
I watch with beady eyes lol

Posted by Denk
This is very good news. But i think to make the life easier for us we need to obtain W960 files by using this hack on w960 and copy all system files and uploading them somewhere on the net. This way we can start digging more deeply.

Posted by razec
I think number1 had also mentioned this but it seems we aren't heard but again with this file access hack, can we now mod the camdriver of the UIQ phones? anyone?

Posted by Phoner
