New OS2007 HE for the Nokia 770 with Mozilla engine and memory corruption bugfix
Posted on 2007-11-14 01:55:12 EET.


A new version of the Internet Tablet OS 2007 Hacker Edition for the Nokia 770 is now available for download. There are two improvements in this released compared to the previous one:

The Mozilla browser engine developed by Nokia is now available in addition to the Opera engine.
A critical bug causing memory corruption under certain wlan conditions has been fixed.
Both improvements carry a remarkable degree of user contributions, big thank you!

The development to bring the Hacker Edition to Chinook levels is ongoing. It's not being easy to make the OS2008 fit in the 770 hardware. We are keeping the plan to offer you a new HE release though, hopefully before the end of the year.

Remember: the OS2007 Hacker Edition is not an end-user ready release and it is not officially supported by Nokia.

Wow, I've been dreaming about this!
But you're saying it's craching often? With or without Seatbelt?
I think it's time for me to learn about the whole dualboot thing.

Is the memory bug fix in the kernel image, or the rootfs image?

(edit: removed question about microb, I had installed the previous HE07 by accident.)

Microb is installed as standard browser in this image.

I've tested the image.
But after surfing for a short time the browser crashed and now i'm back on 2006 :rolleyes:

I am running it now. I can't change my regional settings. Can anyone confirm this? I get prompted with "all applications will close and device will restart" and then I get an error message about "device storage memory full. remove data to free memory." Can anyone else test this out?

I've been using the previous version of os2007HE with very good results and stability (for me at least), so I think I'll wait before upgrading to this version.

It has always been my understanding that the 770 hardware has always been too weak/slow to stream youtube video (I use uktube), so I don't get why people are disapointed when they still can't do it after an upgrade.

or has someone done this successfully with os2006?
