Review: The One v4.7.1 Battery Life

I like to start this new catergory "Review" on my blog, with my own product:
"The One v4.7.1" CFW for the Nokia N8

Something I get asked a lot about my CFW is battery life.
Many people are not happy with the N8's battery life, so I decided to write a review about the N8's battery life performance with my latest custom firmware v4.7.1 (the results should be similar for all my cfw's (since v4.4.0)).

Of course I already tooked a deeper look at the battery life of my CFW while I was creating/testing it, but I never published details about it... so here are the results of my tests, for everyone to read.

Review: introducing a new catergory on my blog

Since I don't have anything new to offer right now (regarding CFW's/Mod's), I though I could give you guys something to read :)

I am starting a new catergory on my blog, if you read the title of this post you already know its "Review".

v4.7.0/v4.7.1

v4.7.0 & v4.7.1 are available for download...

it's a smaller update, do not expect any huge changes in here.
since v4.2.0, all my releases are bugfree... so there is no need to update, unless you really want to ;)

you will find details in the internal changelog.
(summarizes changelog will be updated later)

you can use the full translations for v4.6.0 by nekeule for v4.7.0!
the new mods do not need language files, so the rofs3 are still compatible.

Edit:
full translations - by nekeule (N8 v4.x)

Custom Widget Skins (*.mif) without flashing

Yesterday evening "joshlog" from daily mobile forum released a mod to load *.mif files from E:\.

Since all Widgets I added to my CFW are on Z:\ you can only change their loooks before flashing, by replacing the mif files in rofs2.

The mod by joshlog allows you to change many mif files from E:\. So it is possible to change the widget skins, battery indicator and many more, without flashing.

v4.6.0 full translations

nekeule already updated his translations!
you can find the download link for his rofs3 is in "download" section of my blog.

if you want maps in your own language, use "no maps" edition of my cfw and install it yourself.
if you use the version with maps integrated, you will have more free space on c:\ (because most parts of maps are in rofs/z) but maps will be english only.

according to nekeule, the translations for v4.6.0 are also compatible to my previous v4.x, in case you prefer an older version...

nekeule is still working on more languages... as we know him, they will be available soon ;)

thanks to him by the way, v4.6.0 was translated in many languages in only a few hours!

Edit:
full translations - by nekeule (N8 v4.x)

v4.6.0/v4.6.1

v4.6.0 & v4.6.1 are online

Why two version?
v4.6.1 comes with the new music player ported from Belle v111.040.0704. I don't have the language files for it, so this version stays english only.
(of course you can still use the rofs3 for writing languages)

So if you want to use full translations by nekeule, choose v4.6.0. This version is exactly the same, except for the music player. It comes with the default player of v111.030.0609.

Other informations
v4.6.0/v4.6.1 comes with ~234MB free space on c:\ / ~225MB free space on c:\ with preinstalled maps.

You can find detailed informations about this release in my internal changelog.
(summarized changelog will be updated later)

Downloads are available for Mediafire & Rapidshare.

If you want full translations, wait for nekeule to update his rofs3-files, I let you know when the first languages are available.

Edit:
according to nekeule, he will start working on full translations for v4.6.0 next monday... i leave v4.4.0 up, until we have translations for v4.6.0

v4.4.0 full translations

nekeule updated his full translations to fix the power button menu icons.
the link is still up, files were updated.

about full translations for v4.4.0
-nekeule offers a rofs3 instead of a translated rofs2 now

that means, there is no need for a seperate download package.
choose my main version (with or without maps (attention: english preinstalled maps only!) and flash it together with rofs3 by nekeule.
tutorial is updated...

Nokia Email Client v3.04

***Update 3***

The Email Client Update is already included in the most recent firmware versions!
That update was for Belle (not Refresh/FP2).

The MS Apps can now be installed via SW Update directly on your phone.

*** Update 2 ***

Installers for the latest official MS Apps & PixiEnablers are available here on my blog:
Microsoft Apps 2.0 & PixiEnablers slim Installers

*** Update ***

MS Apps for the Nokia N8 are now officially available, PixiEnablers v2.x also comes with that new package... you can get it via your Nokia Suite Updater.

***

As part of the "Microsoft Apps Bundle" the new email client can be installed via  PixiEnablersNOCS_v1.0.145.

The Installer comes along with lots of unnecessary components. To avoid installing them, I created a cleaned up installer. This Package contains the new "Mail Client" update & "Mail, new Arrival" widget only:
Email Client Update v3.04 - English

Edit:
In my experience the installer works best right after flashing.
If there are already existing mailboxes, the installations takes a very long time...

Installing the Email Client Update will break your msg. reader.
I recommend the update, if you do not care about text to speech.

Here is the unmodded PixiEnablers Installer:
PixiEnablersNOCS_v1.0.145
