#N9Hacks: Hide App Shortcuts + Enable Terminal without Dev Mode (Terminal)

| December 31, 2011 | 34 Replies

I used Terminal to hide it, by making the shortcut a “hidden” file. Here’s how; (Obviously replace userguide with […]

#N9Hacks: Call UI Mod (Terminal)

| December 31, 2011 | 14 Replies

Today’s hack has to do with the Call-UI. I came across a Mod that I like, mainly because I found the buttons too small for my fingers. What this mod does, is makes the answer, reject and silent buttons bigger, as well as enlarging the contact’s avatar. I didn’t like how big the avatar was […]

This is something I have been wanting to do for a while. Since the N900 days, many of us looked all over the web for ways to hack that little beast. My idea, is to create posts, that gather not only my own hacks, but also hacks found around the community, without having to surf […]

If you follow me on Twitter you would know that Nokia Connects shipped me out a Lumia 800 to trial. (Yes, Nokia Connects. Shipped to Australia from the UK 😀 ) As you also know, Nokia Australia sent me an N9 to keep, so I can constantly bring new updates on the device and reviews. […]

Nokia Lumia 800 on sale at mobicity.com.au

Something that I’ve been envious about is those who have been lucky enough to have the Lumia 800 sold in their country. (I guess unlucky in a way, as they missed out on the N9.) I was looking up prices for the N9 (which is listed at AUD$570 btw), when I stumbled across Mobicity selling […]

It will provide you with access to creating these accounts using the Accounts UI app. First of all, download […]

| December 8, 2011 | 24 Replies

It seems after we posted about a new N9 FW being available on Navifirm, many claimed it to be Pr 1.2, others a bug fix for PR 1.1. This post is to settle the dispute. Sorry for an image that looks sketchy, it is all I can reveal without sharing the developer’s details, but the […]
