The One Reloaded v4.0.6 (for Testers!)

As mentioned, v4.x of my new 808 custom firmware is currently in progress.
v4.0.6 is not the final version as I want it to be, but it is  a start.

If you are interested in the progress so far or even in helping me test v4.x, please read on...

Release Notes

v4.0.6 is based on v113.010.1508 and comes with ~565-570MB free space on C:\.
You can take a look at the detailed change log so far here.

This is not the final version yet. But should be on par with the .1507-based "The One Reloaded v3.4.0".
A few new mods are already added and some old ones were updated. But other than that it is pretty much what v3.4.0 already is.

This is a first step into the direction of the final version, which will be v4.1.0.
Before I start adding new mods, updates, etc., we need a stable base. I hope some of you can help me test v4.0.6 to confirm we are on the right way ;)

It may be not the version I have in mind for a final release, but nevertheless, it should be fast, stable and hopefully bug free!

Updates for final Version

These mods will be included in the future v4.1.0:
  • OTA updates
    • new widgets
    • 3G fix
    • email and calendar
    • compatibilityfix
    • messaging
    • camera and gallery
    • sms
    • call
    • wlan
    • gallery plug ins (youtube/twitter)
    • vpn
    • public transport
    • Nokia Big Screen
  • new Mods/Apps
    • black background for keyboard
    • Nokia Store v3.30.18
    • SIP VoIP Settings v3.1
I have some other mods in mind, but I need to test them first, before I can confirm them...

Reports and Requests

Reports
If you want to help me test v4.x, please make sure you clean up E:\ and F:\ and use refurbish for flashing. Also important, do not restore "Applications and Settings" from your backups.
This is the only way to make sure, bugs are not related to your previous firmware version!

Of course you are allowed to flash however you want, but if you intend to report any bugs, please mention how you flashed, if you did it differently than mentioned above.

Requests
As long as v4.x is in progress, it is your chance to request new mods and features.
If you have any suggestions (other than the things I already mentioned above), let me know!

Time line

I have to send my 808 in for repair at the Nokia Care Center.
Don't worry, its not my CFW that broke my phone :)

The proximity sensors, responsible for turning off the display during calls, doesn't work anymore (it is broken for a while now).
Since my brother broke his Nokia X7 once again, I can save some shipping costs and send both phones in together...

So now you guys have some time to test v4.0.6, I may release some small critical fixes if necessary, but other than that, the final version won't come 'till my phone is back.

Update:
For the german users, you can download the german input (keyboard) here:
german input for "The One Reloaded v4.0.6"

Just replace the ROFS3 from the original package and flash as usual ;)

80 comments:

  1. I use pretty much every hardware function the 808 offers and many apps throughout the day, so I'll download tonight, reflash, and begin reporting back.

    Was beginning wonder if we'd ever see another TheOne 808 update ;)

    Cheers!

    1. That would be brilliant, but I suspect the fault is with Swype, not the OS...?

    2. i speak swiss-german, which technically has no grammar... therefore swyping was never interesting to me.

      i've never used it because of that. what exactly is the problem with swype?

      Delete
    3. The big problem making it unusable is that the textbox being typed into is obscured by the pop-up keyboard, i.e. the page doesn't scroll up to show what's being entered.

      Delete
    4. oh, ok... doesn't sound like something i can fix with a modification.
      i think only the swype developers can fix it, by updating it for FP2.

      i remember reading something about an "expiration date" where swype stops working at a specific date... thats something we could probably fix, but the issue you describe, i don't think so.

      sorry mate

    2. so, bin ganz stolz - hatte das Update mit dem deutschen Keyboard oben im Text bisher noch nicht entdeckt - und suchte im Download-Bereich danach...
      Heute morgen gesehen - download - und lediglich ein "Software Update" vom rof3 gemacht
      Jetzt kann ich das deutsche Tastenlayout starten... wobei er mir trotzdem in der Keyboard- Auswahl qwert!y!-Layout anbietet oder phone keypad... nachher aber ordentlich qwert!z! macht...
      Nach dem ersten Eindruck läuft alles sehr gut - es startet unglaublich schnell!
      über die automatischen Updates kam das Mail und Kalender-Update - die anderen habe ich abgelehnt, weil ich sie nicht brauche/möchte...
      Maps sind bereits wieder geladen - bin gespannt, wie die CFW heute im Alltag läuft...
      Werde weiter berichten - vielen Dank schonmal!

    5. Hallo Sascha,

      ein kleiner Hinweis von mir, bevor Du Dich evtl. ärgerst:
      Der Nokiastore erlaubt bei gekauften Programmen nur eine begrenzte Anzahl von Installationen. Wenn diese Anzahl überschritten wird, musst du das Programm erneut erwerben, um es über den Store installieren zu können.
      Es gibt diverse Tricks, die .sis Dateien bei der Installation zu sichern, mit dieser Datei kannst du dann deine gekauften Programme manuell installieren. Sie werden dann vom Store erkannt und erscheinende/erschienene Updates werden bereitgestellt.

      Delete
    6. Vielen Dank für diesen Hinweis!
      Dann werde ich beim Installieren von THE ONE 4.0.7 (o.ä.) mir mal die sis-Dateien sichern... Vielleicht kannst du mir ja noch eine Nachricht senden, mir einem Tipp, wie das am einfachsten zu machen ist...

      Delete
  6. Habe nun alle wichtigen Programme installiert... Läuft alles ohne Probleme! Schön, dass mit dem deutschen Keyboard auch das deutsche Wörterbuch installiert ist... Hatte ich nicht mit gerechnet! Mit dem englischen Telefonsprache kann ich gut leben dabei fällt der ein oder andere Übersetzungsfehler in den App-optionen auf... :) 1508 scheint sehr gut zu laufen - Werksbrowser verfolgt nun links ohne Probleme... nochmal! DANKE!

    1. Danke für dein Feedback, genau die Art von Reports die ich brauche!

      Sorry, hätte wohl kurz einen Kommentar schreiben könne, nach dem ich den Post geupdated habe...
      Natürlich hab ich die deutschen "text suggestions" auch mitreingepackt, text to speech sollte auch auf deutsch dabei sein ;)

      btw. das in den einstellungen "qwerty" angezeigt wird ist normal, das steht einfach für "volltastatur", wurde nicht übersetzt von nokia (zumindest nicht im englishen menu).

      den store hättest du auch via "sw updates" installieren können. Ich werde den aktuellsten store dann in der finale version integrieren.

      ich hoffe es läuft auch weiterhin so gut wie bisher, ich wäre aber überrascht, wenn wir keinen einzigen bug finden... in einer neuen version können immer wieder mal kleinere fehler vorkommen.

      halt mich auf dem laufenden, danke nochmals für deine mühe! ;)

    2. Hallo Daniel,
      ich benutze sehr verschiedene Arten von Programmen:
      Für den Dateiaustausch Dukto und davi
      dann auch Camera-Pro, fMobi (facebook) oder ALON (Musik-Rekorder/Player), Aber auch die "Fahren"-App oder "TouchRemote" ...
      Läuft ALLES ohne Probleme!
      Das Mail- und Kalender Update (von Nokia) ist toll - endlich werden Emails korrekt angezeigt und heruntergeladen...
      Den Store hat mir Nokia nicht über SW-Updates angeboten...?!
      Auch die SIP-Funktionalität funktioniert nach Installation auf Anhieb...
      Kann also bisher NICHTS negatives berichten!

  7. Hi Daniel, i hope this includes the "no connection" bug in Belle... coz it always prompt me for that even my data is off and no other data using apps running, the culprit i found was the social widget... if i kill the process the no connection prompt will end... but sometimes you have to remove the whole widget from your home screen coz later it will prompt again... i know there's a patch for that is DM forum... ope u could include that... cheers!

    1. Yes thanks, but it's not the certificate expiration that ruins Swype, see earlier message.

      Also, I have a feeling that the certificate expiration is a moot point when using custom firmware, is that right?

      Matt

      Delete
    2. I thought it wasn't the certificate expiration, but a built-in "counter" set for a specific date to end the beta...

      but of course you are right, on a hacked firmware/my cfw, there are no certificate issues.

      on the beta labs page it says, swype is compatible to my 808... but that doesn't have to mean anything.

  10. Hi,
    At present my 808 will enter shutdown if I hold the red button for more than about 1 second. This has caused me considerable inconvenience on a few occasions, when all I want to do is exit the application I'm in but the phone powers down instead. Of course this happens when I need to use it in a hurry and then I have to wait for the phone to finish shutdown and then reboot.

    To power the phone on the button must be held for about 3-4 seconds and that's much better than the power down wait.
    If I had a preference I would like it to be as follows:
    1 second or less = application quits
    greater than 1 second = silent/offline mode/powersaving/etc. menu appears
    greater than 4-5 seconds = enter shutdown

    This would be a nice change.
    Thanks

    1. Hi there,
      thanks for your feedback.

      actually, thats the original behaviour.
      if you press the power key once, in a app, it will close that app.
      press the power key once on homescreen, will bring up the power button menu (silent/offline/etc.)

      if you hold the power button, the device will shut down.
      you can change that behaviour to "restart" instead of "shutdown" by applying the original "sysap mod 1.4" by ichris701.

      Delete
    2. is it also possible to turn of the shutdown/restart menu by the "End" button.
      I accidentally reboot the phone at least once a month, which is extremely irritating. The menu appears very quickly, and if you then have your finger above the screen (which is not that rare), your phone will do something you don't want.
      A 10 second hold for forced shutdown is fine, but in all other cases I don't see the point.

      Delete
    3. the "end" button works quite well for me.
      press once, close apps or bring up the menu... keep pressed to shutdown.

      i don't think it's that complicated :p

      if you guys don't like it, you can replace the sysap.exe in core\sys\bin\ with another version of the sysap mod or the original sysap.exe... all you need is the nokia cooker.
      if it bothers someone really that much, i am happy to provide the files and instructions ;)

      Delete
    4. Hi The One,

      Is it possible to revert to original behavior of the end button without cooking CFW?

      Another thing that's been bugging me, is the delay in the button-bar animation of the "Gallery" application. If you tap the screen, the button-bar slides up, but there is a slight delay. Often when I tap the screen, and see nothing happening, I tap again, because I thought the input was not received. The result is that the bar slides up, and then down again.

      Is there a way to remove the delay, and/or remove the animation?

      Delete
    5. Hello again.
      I guess I didn't communicate my original problem well enough.

      I know that sequence of events resulting from the button press is as described (quit app, menu, shutdown).

      My problem is that there isn't enough time required while holding the button before it pops up the menu, and especially before it enters shutdown. In fact, if I hold the button the menu appears almost right away and for such a short time I almost can't react fast enough to release the button before the phone just enters shutdown. It practically flashes on the screen and then moves on.

      The change I was requesting was to implement the wait times I listed. I'm happy with the sequence as is, just not the speed at which it happens. Perhaps my phone is not behaving like it should?

      I don't often need to reboot or shutdown the phone so having to hold the button for five seconds to initiate that process is not an issue to me at all. However, inadvertently having the phone enter shutdown is a real annoyance. Once it's shutting down there's nothing to do but wait for it to complete that process and then power it up again.

      Is the timing supposed to be longer? I mean, is my phone abnormal in that regard? If so, perhaps it will work correctly after your next firmware release.

      Delete
    6. hey mate,

      your device is behaving absolutly normal, there is nothing wrong, don't worry!

      iChris701 modded the sysap.exe, i am not 100% sure if he also modded the timings... but i think its the same as on ofw.

      the idea is as following, please try if this is working fine for you:
      for shutdown:
      keep the button pressed

      for menu or closing apps:
      only press the button once!
      when in a application, the app will close. when on homescreen, the menu will open up.

      Delete
    7. @hobbit13
      i don't know if the sysap.exe is working from C:\ on FP2... you can try it yourself, if it doesn't work you will have to flash.

      i uploaded the original unmodded sysap.exe for you here:
      http://ul.to/tl2qogj6

      if you can't get it working from C:\, use the nokia cooker to put this file into "CORE\sys\bin\". it will overwrite the modded sysap.exe and you will have the original behaviour back.

      if thats the only change you apply, you can use "update" instead of "refurbish" for reflashing and all your data will stay...
      (make a backup of your important stuff anyway, just in case)

      Delete
    8. Well, I tried it as suggested and all is good except that if I hold the button too long (even just a long press) the phone shuts down. What's odd is that to power the phone on I have to hold the button for several seconds before it activates. I presume this is so you don't accidentally turn the phone on, but it would be nice to have that same several second delay for power down so you don't accidentally turn the phone off. Right now just a long press on the button shuts the phone off.
      I hope I don't sound like I'm beating this to death. In the end it's not a real big deal - I just have learned to be careful to avoid a long press when on the homescreen. Sometimes, if I'm distracted for example, I end up with a dead phone that I have to turn on again; but it's not the end of the world.
      Cheers!

    9. hi CranKey,

      i am not offended or annoyed by your request, don't worry about it ;)

      like i said, long press is for shutdown.
      (i get that you feel that the shutdown is happening too fast)

      for the menu or closing apps, only "tap" the button. don't keep it pressed.
      use it like it is the main menu button. a very short and single press only...

      you can try to use the original sysap.exe (as mentioned two comments above) and see if you are happier with the original configuration.
      of course by that you will lose the features the modded sysap provides (like hiding some popups)

  11. hello i was having a trouble refbrushing the 3.4 version on my phone it cased endless loop restarts and i wanted to know is there a fix for that

    1. hi hamza,

      did you have another cfw or ofw installed, based on .1508?
      v3.4 is based on .v1507, you can not downgrade... if you are already on .1508, go for my v4.x version!

      if you are not on 1508 yet, then something went wrong with the flashing... cleaning up E:\ and f:\ and using refurbish in phoenix should fix it.

      good luck ;)

    4. hi hamza,

      can you try to explain what exactly you want me to change about the "manual focus"?
      i don't fully understand your request, sorry.

      v4.x is based on Belle FP2 113.010.1508
      v3.x is based on Belle FP2 113.010.1507

      apart from the newer firmware release, v4.x brings a few updated mods.
      the upcoming v4.1.0 will also feature some more new mods and include some of nokias latest updates.

      Delete
    5. i am not sure about the translations...
      it should mostly work, but some mods probably won't work or won't be translated. but honestly i didn't try it yet.

      my suggestion is to wait for new/updated translations. they will be available for the upcoming v4.1.0

    6. ok will wa8
      but firstly the phoenix was removed from my pc and after re installing the program it shows me an error message "Cannot load, the product "RM-807" is not recognized" its not even on the product list how can i deal with that error ?
      for the manual focus its about taking control of the focal liens adjusting it manually just like the professional cameras

      Delete
    7. if the 808 (RM-807) is not in your produc list, your phoenix version is too old.

      try to install phoenix 2012.24, that version works for me...
      you can find it in my download page

    8. well im trying but the download keep failing !!
      and what about the camera app will it work ?

    9. I suggest you use a download manager, for example jDownloader. If you fail again with that, feel free to contact me via email, I can probably provide a temporary alternative download-link...

      I can't really change the focus control. sorry, but it is as it is...
      Without the source files, we can not make changes like that.

      I hear good things about the "Camera Pro Qt" application, it offers many additional features... you can give that one a try, maybe it works better for you ;)

      -KS by Ancelad is already included, you don't have to install it again

    1. thanks for the suggestions.
      here is my opinion about them:

      * Decrease the menu button event delay for task switcher
      -added akncapserver-mod on purpose to speed up the task switcher, i can tell you how to restore the normal values, but it will stay like this in my cfw

      * Include more ROMPatcher plugins
      -i'll keep an eye open for more (usefull) patches

      * Include some themes
      -probably add "Evolve Qt v3.0" as secondary theme... any other suggestions?

      * Include Restart in power menu
      -sadly thats not possible in FP2
      i added the "restart" app, used as a shortcut on your homescreen i think thats at least something...

      looking forward to more suggestions ;)

      of course it also depends on freaxs_r_us's time, he is doing all the work with the translations

  19. I just wanted to say a big Thanks! for making this firmware and making it available. Because these phones weren't sold in Canada I had to purchase one from someone who brought it in from Hong Kong. It turns out that to sell phones in Hong Kong Nokia has to disable some of the features (geotagging photos, FM transmitter, possibly others). I especially wanted the geotagging feature so I called Nokia and asked them for a fix. This is when they told me they could do nothing for me because the phone had been sold in Hong Kong and was therefore always subject to those restrictions even though it is now being used in Canada.
    Your firmware has given me a full-featured phone, which is awesome!
    A big Thanks! once again!

    1. great to hear you enjoy my cfw :)

      i get why the fm-transmitter is blocked, but i don't see why china would disable geo-tagging?

      whatever... at least now you know a way around that issue ;)
      shame on nokia for not offering you to reflash your phone with a global unrestricted firmware!

  20. There seems to some inconsistency with the red led during charging. Sometimes it's lit, other times it's not lit. I've never see this happen before.

    However, I have installed qooMail recently which uses the leds as incoming mail indicators, there's a chance that the problem is related to that app. I will keep my eye on it.

    1. hi, thank you for your suggestions!
      it's always nice to have some feedback ;)

      unfortunatly, i have to say no to most of your requests... not because i want to, but because it is impossible.

      1. adding the requested features would require access to the source code.
      we don't have the source code, therefore it would be easier to write a new browser application, instead of adding those features.
      porting them from previous versions is not possible either... maybe porting the whole browser would be an option, but i think it would cause incompatibility issues with other apps (and do you really want the old browsers back?)

      2. adding codecs is not that simple.
      as a recent example look at the new qooPlayer, a paid app to replace the default video/music player... even that developer team wasn't able to write their own codecs (at least not in a way it is profitable and worth the effort).

      3. finally something i can help you with ;)
      this mod by iChris701 allows you to change the menu grid to 4x5

      (read the description for detailed instructions or ask me again for help)

      4. i am trying my best to include the most popular (only if stable and bugfree) widgets in my cfw.
      so there will be new widgets in v4.1.0.
      but if you refer to the 3d animated "SPB Shell 3D", i can not do that. its a paid app and sharing an unlocked version via cfw would be piracy.

      again, thanks for the suggestions!
      if you can think of more, feel free to post again ;)

  25. Ok, have been running 4.0.6 for a couple of weeks now. Have not bothered to install everything that I usually have loaded as I'm expecting another release soon-ish.

    Anyway, I've been experiencing far more unexpected reboots with theone 4.0.6 than I'd been getting with huellif 3.1.1. Sometimes the 808 reboots when I have lots of apps running, sometimes it's when I have only one or two apps running.

    Sorry I can't provide more detailed information than this, but now that you have your black...red 808 maybe you'll be able to get to the bottom of it.

    Cheers!

    P.S.
    Something bad with google accounts by the look of things. Done all the usual cache and cookie clearing, restarted browser restarted machine. Ah well, it'll probably be ok tomorrow.

    1. Hey Matt,

      thanks for your feedback!

      from around ~50 users (to be fair, only about half of them have reported something back to me), none has written anything about random reboots so far...

      but you are now using v4.x longer than I have, so i am going to take your word for it and will try to investigate further :)

      out of my head, i have an idea what could be the cause (based on your description)...

      i will prepare and flash a v4.0.7 tomorrow for myself (not sure if its going to be public yet).

      thanks again and good luck with your google login tomorrow :)
      (its google, it won't be down for long ;))

    2. Running an old version of theOne (3.0.8?), and I sometimes get reboots when system load is very high. For example rotating a 38MP JPG in the stock image editor gives a reboot 1 out of 3 times.

    3. i never had that problem on v3.4.0...
      as mentioned, i didn't test v4.0.6 very long because i sent my phone into repair.

      i hope its better on v4.0.7 now!
