temperseed Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Just wondering if anyone has heard of linux + a sony ericsson (per say). I think that would really be nice, to be able to surf the web with linux on ur SE that currently supports 1-4 gigs of storage, i mean c'mon its just great! I could imagine the Windoze&palm based phones could have a linux firmware upgrade, but what about the rest? Free : Bluethood, Infrared, Webcam, Skype, IRC. All those appz are allready available and since they are written in J2ME u could run it on linux. Currently there is a huge lack of J2ME develpment, and linux on a cellphone... havent even heard of it. Olso last but not least to mention, SE phones have AMAIZING firmware suport (and hacks) i basically updated my SE from a k750i to a walkman series w800i + custimizations and it supports macromedia flash items and a 4gig space MS duo that allows me to record up to 5-10hs of video (best quality) or over 400 photos. Just hoping ill light up some interest in somone, or maybe get a positive feedback. PS: If anyone has a SE k750i (RED CID 36) and want to do some cool hacks, im sure i can point you into the right direction. Oh, and im loving season 2 allready ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I have a treo650 i was planning to stick linux on, even had a desktop etc. But the main problem is making it run linux and still work as a usuable phone (ie make and receive calls, texts and emails). http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/PalmTreo650 (info on the treo650+linux project) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temperseed Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 yep, one good thing about the phone treo is that its palm based and there is a really nifty tool called "Omni remote" that allows you to record and send infrared (IR) signals, thust allowing you to steal IR signals from anything ex: - drive way IR controlled doors - your neighboors TV remote - your computer - other devices - crack IR locks using brute force I searched everywhere for a Omniremote equivalent on Java (J2ME) without sucess, witch really brought me down, since my SE can do allmost everything i want and IR control is one of the current limitations of it. PS: SE k750i, is one of the most sold cellphones thruw out the world, and the ones with most hacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
