Guest Paul [MVP] Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 The incredible has happened... The same hackers behind some of the biggest breakthroughs in the Smartphone scene have ported the Smartphone OS to the Nokia NGage! Using a combination of the Audiovox SMT5600 ROM and the Radio Stack from an Orange C500, the hackers have a fully working build INCLUDING Windows Media Player 10! The NGage has been chosen as the first Nokia platform to receive the ROM due to it's very similar specs to current Smartphones, but our sources tell us that this build will actually work on just about any current Series 60 device! The files are starting to appear in the usual places, but, due to the illegal nature of this release, anyone posting the ROM or links to the ROM will be banned from the forum. Smartphone fans of the world rejoice! :D P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest arterialzade Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 I think that is not true! Cause why dont you try to give the link of the site. And you see the picture of the Nokia, the casing is too old and maybe just a cover of the smartphone. Thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Cause why dont you try to give the link of the site. Thanks.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Forum rules. We would have to ban Paul (NFG) if he posted a link to the website :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MitchellO Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Because they probably have agreements with companies that don't allow them to. They could get into trouble for posting links to warez and such. Basicly, it is not a licenced version of WM smartphone edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mike-oh Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 That last one is great. Starts off convincing but then goes ludicrous! :D "We’ve designed a way to create small wormholes within the GPU and we pass information through that way. Admittedly, there are stability issues and as soon as we get the main part of Taiwan back in this dimension, we’ll be going ahead with production” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MitchellO Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Wormholes? Yes, we need a wormhole to send information 3cm across the chip :D I know speed is in need... If you started reading it you would believe, and then it (intentionally) gives the gag away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
