Just bought another N900 with 15 Eur. From someone who had worked for Nokia. Who had got a bag full of N900s when their job ended. N900s were of no use anymore at that time. I think they said this phone was the last they had for sale. Some collector had bought a lot of them. Some with arabic lettering keyboards.

I asked if they emptied the phone and they said yes. Noot. Over 400 contacts, some pictures and many accounts trying to connect automatically, including gmail etc. Didn't want to straight to empty the whole phone but just emptied those account infos. Then started to check repos.

Enterprise Pilot Package Repository
https://hiro.nokia.com/repository/pr...rprise-tablet/
fremantle
nokia-open nokia-closed modified ossw

Haven't seen that before.

Installed software/apps:

Hiro Basic
Enterprise application package for Nokia employees

hiro-ocs-control
OCS control script

Trust Hiro repository
Hiro repository application manager domain and public key.

and

enterprise-configurator
Utilities to automatically configure certain aspects of a maemo device.

Also many VPN apps with connection information for connecting remotely to different Nokia servers etc.

Of course none of those Nokia based connections worked anymore and did not have passwords for VPNs. Just thought that want to share if these apps are not so common or someone would be interested of them.

Interesting find!
Any special apps installed that you could extract?

I think those that I mentioned are something I don't recall seen before. Or are they found in repos?

Told ya Maemish....
Lotta questions...people will have...
And if there is any way of extracting half of what is in there ...
It will present possibly interesting findings, possibly allow easier inclusion for ...goodness knows what...actually...
It is quite the find...and an unknown quantity and quality ...at this point.

I have NEVER seen those in the repos...

Nokia devels had dark dark secret trapdoor passageways through the underpinnings of the infrastructure...

I KNEW IT!


Where is Conspiracy-Theorist-Dave???
He will definitely think alien interstellar hybrid sea cucumbers are behind all this.

I just thought of flashing it clean. Should I not then? I'm like Mr Bean with N900. So don't ask me to extract anything unless you wan't it to be lost forever. Maybe someone else could do something? Anyone from Finland here? I'm willing to send it to someone to check even though I think it may be dissappointing and not having too much extras inside.

Nights to ya all. It's one and gonna wake up at six so have to get some sleep. Gonna check tomorrow if someone would have some suggestions here about this.

I imagine a few people will mull over what you have suggested...
I am too far from finland to count....
the other side of the planet almost ...

no don't flash it.
wait until someone comes up with a good idea...before doing anything with it.

You could dig around the filesystem to see if there are any cached Deb files. It's possible being an internal device that some settings might be different and the original debs are not cleaned.
/home/user/MyDocs/.apt-archive-cache/
/var/cache/apt/archives

Then there's dpkg-repack, which may not create 100% exact debs.

Other than that, it might be worth generating a log of all installed packages and Maemo version information to see if there are any updated or different packages
