Using the WinSCP you configured earlier. Transfer and replace the .ko files on your N900 in:

/opt/psfreedom/modules/omap1
/opt/psfreedom/modules/power40

With the ones extracted from these: (RESPECTIVELY)

how would i do this on a nokia n800 because i have it all set up backup manager works but is not enabled for playing the backed up games i have looked through the internal memory of the nokia n800 and there is no file directory /opt/psfreedom/modules/omap1 so i can change the .ko file as instructed in this forum any help would be fantastic thankyou

The part you quoted is for the n900 PSFreedom GUI application.
I did not provide any instructions for the n800.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, 3,42 does not work.

If you had it working on fw 3.41, did the jb put a stop to the forced updates?

2. Yes
3. Getting the PSFreedom GUI application version to install on your N900 without the n900 itself being connected will be troublesome. PSFreedom-GUI depends on other packages also. So you'll have to pin point and download those. troublesome. specially on 3G.

4. Looking at your situation. Here is what I think you should do:

1,
Root your N900. (Give yourself super admin privileges)
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/rootsh/

When you click on the download link. You get an .install file. Transfer that to your N900. You can do that over USB. Just plug in your N900 to your Windows PC. It'll show up. Place the file anywhere there.

Unplug your N900 from your PC. (You have to do this, so don't get trouble in the next step)

On the N900, using the file manager, go to that place you put the file. Click on it. Application Manager will pick it up and try to install it. You need to be connected over 3G. It's a tiny package. so it should take a few seconds.

Close Application Manager and File Manager.

2.
Plug back your N900 to your PC. Now transfer the 3 PSFreedom Files from my first post (USB). (2 .sh and 1 .ko). to the N900.

3.
Launch the Terminal on your n900. Type:

Code:

root

Now we need to navigate to the place you put the 3 files. What usually shows up on windows when you plug the N900 is MyDocs....so.... in the Terminal on the n900 (Case Sensitive):

Code:

cd /home/user/MyDocs

To know whats currently in that directory. Type:

Code:

ls

4.
Finally once you confirm you're at the place where the 3 files are. Type:

Code:

sh ./psfreedom-enable.sh

It doesn't really stop updates. Updates always require the permission of the user at some point. Whether cause a game wants to do it or the PS3 connected to PSN found an update.

If you want to play online. You have to update. If a super new game requires an update to work. You have to update. Nothing the JB can do. at this point.

When backup manager says "do you wanna backup on external?" say "no". It'll say "do you wanna backup on internal?" say "yes".
