Hi gblaque,
the sos message is telling you that only emergency service is available.
This happens if you get out of signal range or if the simcard is missing / damaged or not properly connected.
Check the condition of the simcard, maybe there's a bit of corrosion on the copper tracks...

Happy New Year everyone

Ok basically i just wanted to ask anyone if they still had copies of all the software that was released by dj_denims. I tried getting it from his forum but it seems that the rars are corrupt or something. I have tried to get in touch with him and am waiting on his response, but just in case i figured i would message everyone on this board and see if they have the files. Anyway if you do have the files please email and attach them to me at mokuman@hotmail.com. Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, as has been pointed out by others earlier in this thread, dj_denims despite all his claims hasn't realeased any useful software at all.

The only semi-useful ones are the manuals, but those are actually for the Philips ct968 phone and available from philips. Just google for 'philips ct9688'

The other thing was a rar file full of java games, but you can get those from anywhere.

Either way thanks for the response.

I allready disassembled some files of my 968, and get some export functions of the lib. I need to test it to make sure it.

One more thing, if you want to hack this phone, it helps if you don't try to get information not so much about the dv007, but oin the Cellon c8000 platform itself.

There appears to be a way to get into the console (and with linux, once you're there , anything is possible... ) for a chinese Phone called the Amoi E600.

Unfortunately, all the info about that hack is in chinese which I can only accesss via automated translation...
But what I've gathered is that they do this by modifying the package for the qnes emulator (qnes.prg) somehow.

Maybe someone who speaks chinese can shed some light on how this works.

Well, just like your read, All of our break is the qnes which the philips supportted! We found that the qnes is a tar packet, and a part of the packet is the elf file. We try to instead of it by the sh file. Surprisingly we can execute it.
So we use it to get all of the files, and link it to the console. we knew that cellon was based on the QT2.3.0 and QTE2.1.7, with gcc3.2.1. And We try to make up the cross-compiler, but failed on the soft-float. These days some one get the cross-compiler of the gcc3.2.1 from net, and it works well. Now we are interested in the SDK of the C8K, we also get some .h from the disassemble.
That's all. If you need help about the chinese, contact me!

I got one of these from a friend who says it fell and stopped working. The phone itself is functional, but the display doesn't show. On opening it, I discovered that part of the circuit board for the LCD screen was broken off. Does anyone know where I can get replacement parts for this model? Thanks.

I am having problems with signal strenght since I live in a rural area. Does anybody have any solutions. I am a bit weary of the software posted by DJ Denim since of the corrupt files issue.

Thanks

You can post the instructions here, I'm sure there's several people here that would be interested...

If any news has arisen please post... Especially about a signal booster

Posted by: McTezz

Yes, we have some real tangible news at last..
resib7606 has hacked the UT Magic app (DV007.dll), it now has limited access to the phone's operating system. Thanks to resib (a real star, unlike someone else I could mention) it's possible to add/modify menu items in the Entertainment menu. The os has BusyBox console already installed, all it needs is a menu item to activate/run it. From there you have full access to the rest of the os...
So far, I successfully installed a file browser "explorer" originally for the Amoi E600 handset.
Qnes is installed but not running, it complains about missing shared libraries. Anyway it's a good start. Many more things to learn

As for the signal booster, I don't think that's possible, sorry...

Can you explain what problems you're having?
I think it's a good idea to share our experiences and knowledge with this in the hope that other people will join in and start porting stuff to our DV007

I've started to document part's of the filesystem:

/mnt/cellon/cec/apps/ . . . (r/o) here you'll find directories for each menu.
./1Communication . . . . . .(r/o)
./2Multimedia . . . . . . . (r/o)
./3MobileOffice . . . . . . (r/o)
./4Entertainment . . . . . .(r/w) linked -> /mnt/user/cec/apps/4Entertainment/
./5Other . . . . . . . . . .(r/o)
./6Mymenu . . . . . . . . . (r/o)

note, 6Mymenu item doesn't show up on the desktop. Most likely not set up correctly or bug?

Also the 4Entertainment menu is actually a link (shortcut) -> /mnt/user/cec/apps/4Entertainment/

/mnt/doc/cec_local/ . . . . (r/w) instal 3rd party apps and support files.
./bin . . . . . . . . . . . (r/w) binary executales go here.
./data
./i18n
./lib
./Log
./plugins

/mnt/doc/user_local/ . . . .(r/w) /root of the phone's user space.
./audio
./Doc_center
./photo
./video

/mnt/sd/ . . . . . . . . . .(r/w) /root of the SD card
./audio
./Doc_center
./photo
./video

/mnt/user/cec/ . . . . . . .(r/w)
./apps . . . . . . . . . . .(r/w)
./apps/4Entertainment/ . . .(r/w) The only place where you can add/remove desktop entries.
./bin . . . . . . . . . . -> /mnt/doc/cec_local/bin
./data . . . . . . . . . . . (r/w)
./i18n . . . . . . . . . .-> /mnt/doc/cec_local/i18n
./lib . . . . . . . . . . -> /mnt/doc/cec_local/lib

Hey, Just came upon this thread while googling... That’s the first 2 hours of my working day gone :P Arh well good thing I have office to myself today.
I love my DV007 which I bought last year, but I feel a bit ripped off in a way. I am a massive born again Linux user (although still only a beginner) I used to hate Linux with a passion until I learned more about it, and I bought this phone as I heard it had a Linux OS... I wanted to do some fiddling!

I have been looking around for any other OS's I could put on instead of the native one, but as of yet, have found nothing. Does anyone know of any Ubuntu based OS's that can be put onto the DV007?

Also, I am a beginner in coding/modding/hacking, so some of the stuff I have read on here goes WAY over my head :P anyone have any walkthroughs with simple explanations on how to make modifications and access the console? A Linux platform just doesn’t feel the same without the ol' console stand by...

Thanks in advance

Hi RedPandaFox,

I know what you mean about feeling ripped-off by not having access to the OS [linux], that was before 'resib7606' came up with that crack. As soon as I get some spare time, I'll write up a walkthrough to get the console.

I found a port of 'Final burn Alpha' and tested some Neo-Geo and Capcom roms and they worked quite well. If anyone's interested I'll post the app..

That would be great. I bought this phone to have some fun with, but at the moment, mine is all I do on it

Having access to the console with make it feel a bit more inviting, and open up for more customization.

Hi guys,
Maybe someone has figured out how to install/uninstall languages for T9 dictionary in our beauty

Hi,
i want some info about this emulator.
Thanks

Posted by: McTezz

Hi Resib,
Final Burn Alpha (fba) is simular to MAME.
FB Alpha is an arcade emulator supporting the following hardware platforms;

- Capcom CPS-1
- Capcom CPS-2
- Cave
- Neo Geo
- Toaplan
- Taito Rainbow Islands/Operation Wolf/Rastan
- Psikyo 68EC020 based hardware

The version I have requires the roms to be saved as a memory dump (there's a utility for that). The good thing about this is there's no need to setup virtual memory. Over the weekend I'll post it, can't do it from work

Meanwhile, this is what it looks like running on the DV007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hx1WUV7Ed3g

Posted by: McTezz

Requirements -
UTStarcom DV007.
UT Magic Windows application.
Hacked 'DV007.dll' for UT Magic.
Console desktop file.
>

Download dv007.zip, which contains resib's hacked DV007.dll

Replace the original 'DV007.dll' with the hacked 'DV007.dll'.
So, unzip & copy DV007.dll to the UT Magic directory.
By default it should be in C:\Program Files\UTStar\UT magic\
* You may want to rename the original DV007.dll to something like "DV007.dll.bak", just in case
you want to keep it..

From the DV007.zip you'll find the "console.desktop" file. This will be installed to the phone.
Plug in the phone (make sure it's not in the USB mass storage mode), and activate PC sync.
Now start UT Magic...

1. Select "File" (from the left, 2nd last icon near the bottom of the screen) see pic...

2. Navigate to the downloaded "console.desktop" file, and click on it so it's highlighted.
3. Now click the "Export" icon and select "File" from the menu.

After it's read the contents of the phone, the Export dialog will appear.

Now navigate to ../../cello/cec/apps/4Entertainment

Click the Export button...

When finished, unplug the phone, then shutdown & restart the phone.
Now when you to the Entertainment menu you will see the BusyBox console.

Hi maciejus,
I'm not entirely certain but it seems all the languages are self contained in a single file. Look in here : /mnt/cellon/cec/data/dic: there you will find "ddata0.dic". Unfortunately this file (1,795,840bytes) is not in plain text so I can't read it.
I've found "ddata0.dic" for the Philips 968 and it's about twice the size, maybe I'll install it and see if there are additional languages there. If so, then I doubt you can remove them without the proper software to read this particular format.

Hi McTezz,
Many thanks for this info.
Have you managed to install this "ddata0.dic" file from Philips 968?
Can you please post a link to this file?

Posted by: McTezz

Not yet, thanks for reminding me. The file in question was found here http://bbs.imobile.com.cn/ in the Philips 968 section. I don't recall the exact thread, some guy posted the entire OS, 30+megs in over 30 spanned rar files. For convenience I'll post ddata0.dic here.

BTW, did you know you can 'tty' remotely log into dv007 with hyperterm?

On dv007 console, type;
/sbin/getty -L ttyUSB0 115200 vt100 &

Setup for HyperTerm;
connect using com20 port.
115200 Bits per sec.
8 Data bits.
No Parity
1 Stop bit
Hardware Flow control.

Hi, McTezz

Which username and password you use for login in DV007?

Thanks.

Posted by: McTezz

Hi resib,
username is root and no password is required. In fact you wont be prompted for one unless a password has been set.
Ok, try this;

copy the passwd file from /etc/ to /mnt/user/etc/
[cp /etc/passwd /mnt/user/etc/]
now type this;

mount -o bind /mnt/user/etc/passwd /etc/passwd
/sbin/getty -L ttyUSB0 115200 vt100 &

If you have a password set in the original passwd then download my dv007_term.zip which has a clean passwd, script & .desktop with icons.

Posted by: resib7606

Thanks ,
this work fine!

now i install opie GUI on sd card,
but touchscreen and keyboard not work

Posted by: McTezz

You're welcome resib.

Now you got me interested in opie

What can you tell me about it, some links maybe?

Here's another tip for all who hate that annoying shutter sound you get when taking pictures.

mount -o remount / # remounts fs as rw
mv /mnt/cellon/cec/sys_sound/takepic.wav /mnt/cellon/cec/sys_sound/takepic.wav.bak

by renaming or alternatively deleting the takepic.wav will silence the camera. Btw, you could also simply replace the sample with something else instead.

Terrible news people, last night, my DV007 dropped from my pocket and the casing that held the top in place next to the camra snaped, leaving me with two parts to a DV007 held together by wire

Im now left using a Nokia 2760 -whimpers- But I dont want my DV007 to have been broken in vain, as it is stll working, Im thinking Id like to leave it open to experimentation, Id like to try to use it as a laptop or such, put a new OS on it if I can or something, it dosnt matter if it gets bricked. Id like something like Ubuntu on it if posible and can get T-flash cards to install it on if need be.
So anyone got a suggstion for what I can do? (Also I will only take suggestons from trustworthy people... unlike some who have used this forum in the past)
I use Ubuntu as my primary OS but have several diffrent Linux disros installed on my PC and laptops and exernals and XP on duel boot of my PC, I can use any of these if neccacary for the modification process

So if someone has an idea but was worried it may brick the phone, mabey try it on mine.
Cant wait to here some suggestions

Posted by: McTezz

What a bummer, at least it still works...

I read somewhere that the PXA270 platform will runWindows CE 5.0/6.0 and Linux 2.4x - 2.6.15 if that's any help.
