ROKRE8 PHP 5.2.6

Here you go, PHP 5.2.6. =)
Drawback? No XML support since I’m too lazy to compile libxml. There are also few other missing functions which I can’t remember.

show* Binaries for E8 + Source

Thanks to the russian who created the E8 toolchain, I can now compile QT softwares for my beloved E8. =D. The first in the list, the really helpful show* Binaries. Coupled up with Bash or PHP, you can create powerful applications. (I’m trying to compile PHP as I write this article)
So without delay, download links:

ROKRE8: BusyBox 1.11.2 & Bash 3.2

My E8 has been UnMagx! Thanks to the russians who create the telnet firmware. (:
My intention from the start was to create qt application for this E8. So far, only command line app can be compiled successfully. (using Z6’s toolchain) I came across a strange error when compiling QT app against the phone libs. One was [...]

OSX Leopard on HP Compaq Presario B1200 (B1270TU)

iPod Touch 2.0 JailBreak Tutorial (Vista/XP)

As the title states, this article aims to provide instruction for jailbreaking your iPod Touch to version 2.0. Do note that, as of the time this article is written, the 2.0 firmware is sluggish and buggy (especially the battery life) and in my opinion if you are an end user, you should stay on 1.1.4.
Requirements:

iTunes [...]

rokrRevival BETA {DISCONTINUED}

Since I got my ROKRE8, my E2 was passed down to my little brother. That’s not really a problem though. The main problem is that I do not have time to work on something as big as E2. Work plus school plus after school activities, my life is just occupied right now. So, I can [...]

7 Months Gap

After 7 month of the site inactivity, I’ve decided to start posting again. (:
Even so, the posts aren’t gonna come too often. Reason being that I’m quite busy with projects and school life. Nevertheless, I will try hard to blog my thoughts and updates down here as much as possible so that others can gain [...]

My WorkSpace

Running Xubuntu Gusty Gibbon.
256MB Ram VMware Machine.
Tools: Terminal, Lampp, GCC and friends, GEdit, GCC for ARM and Friends, Lasly+foxe6+samr7’s SDK, SDL lib, mkezx.

Total Space used:  5.7GB.

Phew…

After several hours long, I’ve completed the re-setup of my workspace. I used to run Ubuntu Dapper on VMWare. Now, I successfully moved everything to Xubuntu Gusty Gibbon. (Though, I prefer the name ‘Dapper‘). Ofcourse, I’m still on VMware because it’s easier to use Linux on VMware than compiling in Cygwin.

Anyway, moving the files was [...]

SDL on E2

Thanks to blackhawk. (very much) His patches and guidance made me successfully run SDL on my E2. Simple, just follow his README.EZX and made sure you run the proxy program before running your SDL app. You can use his `rockboxproxy`.

Patch SDL Patch.

Oh I forgot, it doesn’t work well on E2. I’m still playing [...]

Howto: Partition your SD

Sometimes I’m just lost on how to do basics.

Anyway, this guide is pretty useful. I believed it came from chinese motorola fans forums and edited by a person name vanheumai.

Telnet-ing to E2 from Linux

Now, I’ve seen people say that they are successful in telnetting to their E2 from a linux box. But none of them have provided me the proper solution. In other words, their instruction didn’t work for me. So for those who have the same problem as me here is MY solution.

modprobe usbnet
modprobe cdc-acm

Then, cconnect phone [...]

Google Syntax Highlighter

Just thought that I should share my patch for Google’s Syntax Highlighter. My patch does the following:

Supports <code> tags (Hence won’t break XHTML)
Fix for Wordpress (<br />) (Activate by adding this to your code: “dp.SyntaxHighlighter.WPMode();”)
Supports of selecting tags without name (Allowing the use of “dp.SyntaxHighlighter.HighlightAll(”);”)

Apply patch below by patching with GNU patch.exe or linux [...]

[e2] rokrGui

rokrGui v1 [DOWNLOAD HERE]

rokrGui is simply a replacement for ilove3d’s rokr.lin/rokr. Run sh/lin or extract files with  the terminal output displayed on your e2. Enjoy!

The software requires tar, unrar, unzip, bash and original ilove3d/rokr.lin. Yes, for now, only ilove3d based monster packs are compatible.

 Please read the readme.txt [...]

Double The Capacity of Your MP3/MP4 Player!

Do you know that your MP3 or MP4 player might actually hold 2 times the amount of songs it is marketed to store? Actually, there’s a way to this. But instead of using MP3 format, you will need to convert your songs to OGG format. (Your MP3/MP4 player MUST support OGG for this to [...]
