I have a fix only if you have bought it and have a settings backup of when it was full activated.
I have been going a bit nuts and glad to find this thread. Basically my original N800 is a bit the worse for wear having been cheerfully abused by my 3 year old grandson (bless him) so I bought a second hand N800 in pristine condition to replace it.
Navicore needs to be deactivated on the old handset and then re-activated on the new.
I couldn’t understand why my deactivation request was met with “Licensing Error/An unknown error (0) has occurred”.
Since it is clear that neither Navicore, Wayfinder nor Vodafone will help, how can I spoof the deactivation/reactivation process on the relevant devices?
This is legitimate software that I purchased with a lifetime licence so I am not being shady in any way.

I recall some disassemblling videos posted a while back by thoughtfix (? sorry if that is a mis-name) and I shall see if they are still up.

Edit: when does your licence expire?

Also I have found Thoughtfix's Nokia N800 Dissection And Reassembly piece here
http://tabletblog.com/2007/01/nokia-...eassembly.html
So one way or another I should be able to deal with this.
My Licence is set to expire on 2010-10-02. So I might find that it is all for nothing come October anyway?

Yes, my files will allow you to fake the mac address to use your existing licence until the expiration date.

Basically there doesn't seem to be a file or directory in /home/user/ called 'mac' and this includes .hidden. I have checked both N800s - each of which has maps installed and one of which is activated.
Is there a step that I am missing?
In order to effect all of this I have installed emelFM2.

Oh, do this only on the new n800, and edit /home/user/mac to have the mac of the old one.Edit: and use lower-case for hexadecimal numbers, don't know if it matters but lower-case definitely works.

All times are GMT. The time now is 07:48.
I have three unlimited licenses, all of them useless.
I wish I knew I have to backup the damn .navicore folder before flashing my 770/N810.
