Power Pack for PR1.3
 

So I was dwelling some forums and came across this:

http://meegoforum.pl/powerpack-t466.html

It's in Polish, but in short, a user of that forum called arcean prepared a power pack for pr1.3. The first post of that thread has a sort of a changelog (in English!) of what it's supposed to bring to our N9's. Have anybody seen/tested this before?

If not, what you have to do to get it is:

- first make sure you have inception/open mode installed

- download this package http://meegoforum.pl//download/PowerPack_0.0.3.zip

- copy it on N9 to folder /home/user/MyDocs/PowerPack

- in case of inception, run the following command in terminal:

cd /home/user/MyDocs/PowerPack
/usr/sbin/incept *.deb
Password for 'root':

- in case of open mode, run the following:

devel-su
#give root password
export AEGIS_FIXED_ORIGIN=com.nokia.maemo
cd /home/user/MyDocs/PPack
dpkg -i *.deb

Installation instructions come directly from the first link and were made by the author of this package (arcean). I did not install it yet, because I modded my phone heavily with N9Quick Tweak and I'm not sure how those two would work together. From user reports it seems it works OK and brings some improvements for apps using qt-components. Also, some people had to reflash phone after installation :/ but presumably due to installation errors on the user's end. Anyhow, just reporting what I've found :)

EDIT: minor edits

Moderator edit (18-07-2013):
Newest version: PowerPack 0.3.0

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Maybe send arcean a PM to do a thread here? IIRC he created the thread here for LED Event Notifier on the N9 too...


Edit: To me it looks like he has done something like unrestricted system-ui whereby the original system's packages are replaced by his packages to enable further modification of the system...Maybe PM him and ask him to explain it ;)

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

done, good advice - I did not know he's a profile at tmo as well

edit in response to edit ^^ : yep, I asked if he'd be interested to telling us more about power pack, we'll see what comes out of it

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

bump : any news about this ?

OT : http://www.dobreprogramy.pl/Krogulec...eGo,34181.html
can someone from poland translate this article because google isn't that accurate and if i'm not mistaken there is a mention about pr 1.3.1

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

a polish friend of mine had a look at it - the author says that he heard from his sources that a pr 1.3.1 update is coming (soon) and it will be mostly bug fixes and no new features.
and he writes about tizmee and powerpack, but doesn't mention what the powerpack is/does.

has anyone tried it?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

thanks for the translation and if it's true it will be (99.99%) bug fix only but on the first post there is a link about powerpack

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Interesting article, but it is from July, so if PR1.3.1 is coming it's not soon :(

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

I just installed this PPack and I must say I'm amazed. FasterN9 + this and wow, everything is way faster now. Even selecting text in browser is better. And it's not just a reboot placebo, for the past couple of days I restart my n9 constantly as something is wrong with it and when I unlock button/double tap I just get a blank screen and restart is the only option.

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Don't use it. I have been using it, and yes, it improves it, but some of the packages break compatibility with existing apps. Rg, qt-components package messes up Wazapp, and since installing this power pack, I can no longer copy paste to/from browser url box.

I am in the process of reverting the changes atm, after having this on for the last 3 weeks

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

strange that you're having that issue. I've had no such problem with the stock browser. I was careful when installing qt components, can't remember the exact order, but it has been fine here with wazapp.

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

There's no need for an exact order. dpkg -i *.deb or /sbin/incept *.deb should be enough :).

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

So whatever happened to plans for a "CSSU-like" system, similar (not exactly like ofc) to what was done for Fremantle.
Is the Hildon Foundation Board/Council planning to implement something for Harmattan?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Give us some N9 CSSU lovin' HiFo. Would you rather have us go Sailfishin'? I think not! But I maybe wrong.

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

I think there is some hope.. :rolleyes:

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

The newest version of PowerPack 0.2.1 works like a charm for me. GUI is much much smoother, and some things that haven't worked before, now work (e.g. bluetooth activation with one-tap from status menu extensions).

@arcean: szacuneczek :)

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

How new is that, is there a dedicated thread at TMO?
Be nicer to see something official from HFC/B...

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Do you use inception or open mode?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Is this safe?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Yes!

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Will this be rolled into a official CSSU for Harmattan at some point? (similar to what's been done with Freemantle for ages now)

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

installed. everything is ok. i use fastern9.

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

can someone host these fixes in a repo so we can get the update periodically? Just wondering if official updates are released, how troublesome it is to update with power pack installed?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

How about uninstallation process? It will remove all installed packages and restore all to default ?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

i already install coderus unrestricted ui, need to uninstall 1st before install this power pack?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Seful, I installed it (sysiu) before power pack.

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Can't copy URL from browser after installing this what can i do?

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

ok, power pack 0.2.1 don't download...
that's not my day...

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

A proper announce thread would make much more sense than this but it's his ( the author of power pack ) choice .

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Same here but I just extract files and tried installing one by one deb files from 'File case root'.
Is it needed to use terminal dpkg etc.(see first page) file by file instead or (silly question maybe!) is it possible to do it as one package by *.deb?
Have both inception and open mode.

But before trying I need an answer to uninstall question from Schturman #29!

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

For powerpack uninstallation you need reinstall stock packages from original nokia repo with command: apt-get install --reinstall foo

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Created first a folder in MyDocs 'PowerPack' and copied PowerPack_0.2.1.zip into this folder.
But no matter what I do in terminal I get this!
~ # export AEGIS_FIXED_ORIGIN=com.nokia.maemo
~ # cd /home/user/MyDocs/PowerPack
/home/user/MyDocs/PowerPack # dpkg -i *.deb
Aegis rejecting *.deb: Could not open debian archive

What am I doing wrong?:confused:

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

Garp,

Post the output from terminal of:

I'm pretty sure you haven't extracted the .zip hence the issue...

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

~ # ls -al /home/user/MyDocs/PowerPack/

Still a problem?:confused:

Re: Power Pack for pr1.3 ?
 

So is that PowerPack_0.2.1 a .zip or just a folder; if its a folder you need to further cd to it by doing:

Only then once you see the .debs in it should you be doing:
