Can you please add as attachment your "libsms-utils0_0.5.17.3+0m7_armel-mod.deb" ?

Thanks.

So to clarify: first you installed the original binary and then the modified binary?


Yes, I did it this way. Both .debs were installed by aegis-dpkg command - first the original, then the modified binary.

Here you are, I'm adding both files :)

One more question: is reboot needed after installing the original file? Or can I install both and reboot after that?

1) You need to have the Developer Mode active. See this thread https://wiki.maemo.org/Resurrect_your_N9
2) Install Coderus Aegis-install hack package: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=90750 simply download the .deb file and tap on it
3) Download the .sh file http://thp.io/2014/emojifix/


Seems like .sh file has also been removed.

EDIT: and also all the installing instructions too.

I did the reboot after installing the original file, but I don't know if that's necessary. After reinstalling the modified libsms reboot wasn't needed - everything started to work correctly.

Thanks for the reply.

Since the install instructions seem to be gone from thp's pages, do you have also the instructions?

Seems like using the files from kempus5 fixed everything. No more twos displaying as sixes, sending and receiving emoticons works and also automatic SMS services are now working. Thank you all, once again.

I tried to fix 2-6 bug like that, in my experience I had to reboot twice, first after installing original file, second after reinstalling mod file.

Everything works great now, Thanks to the community :)

It turns out I hadn't done the emoji fix and had got along for over a year with a new-to-me N900 not noticing killed emoji SMSs. Being a grownup is boring or I was just missing out on fun SMSs until my wife noticed them on her Lineage Oneplus and tried to send me a few as a test. The SMSs with emoji were silently killed
Installed by sudo dpkg -i for both .deb files as the software updater errored out
I used .deb files from this TMO post, first the straight libsms and then the libsms mod
https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...&postcount=132
it didn't work until I rebooted
but now when I get SMS with one of the newer android (LineageOS-14) style emojis I can see the SMS text and the emojis appear as blank boxes on my N900.
So just affirming that newer emoji SMS in summer 2017 still works with this fix.
