[Announce/Mod] Unrestricted system-ui (Harmattan)
 
Inception or open mode required.

As per http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=4117

Long story short, Nokia decided that having plugins in the status menu is a bad idea.

This package is a recompiled package with the in and out of process filters replaced with an empty QRegExp().

What this means is that you can now write and load plugins in the status menu.
The only regression I've found is that there's an incomplete alarms applet included by Nokia in Harmattan which lacks translations, you can remove that (see below)

FYI, this was only on my N950 with the latest public firmware, it should work on the N9, but of course, it's untested on it, so PLEASE, backup first, worst case scenario is a MALF and you'll have to reflash, but you took that risk when you installed inception ;)

(And it works fine on my N950, I'm just stating some warnings)

So again, keep backups.

Here's a wiki page that sums up everything about this: http://wiki.maemo.org/Unrestricted-system-ui

To install it, you'll have to replace your stock system-ui
Please visit the wiki page above for instructions on how to install it.

To install it, you'll have to replace your stock system-ui, which is why inception is required.

Code:

devel-su #enter pass
wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Harmattan/system-ui_1.2.23-1+0m7_armel.deb
/usr/sbin/incept system-ui_1.2.23-1+0m7_armel.deb #enter root pass

Leaving replies about how it works for you is greatly appreciated.
(and if you've removed that alarms .desktop file...)

will it work with nitdroid open kernel ? Or inception must be installed ?

I'm not sure if having an open kernel allows dpkg to replace packages from other domains, and if it does, it'll probably MALF when/if you go back to stock kernel.

If you are running under open mode, just run the following as root, no additional hassle required:

Code:

wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Harmattan/system-ui_1.2.23-1+0m7_armel.deb
export AEGIS_FIXED_ORIGIN=com.nokia.maemo
dpkg -i system-ui_1.2.23-1+0m7_armel.deb

Hey MAG nice mod, thanks.

I have a problem installing the .deb, some depency error.

What can I do to resolve this?

You need to install unrestricted-system-ui from http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...16#post1214016 first

Now I have to flash open mode and then see how to get the date up there. It's just unintuitive to have to lock the phone to see the date.

Seems like I can't avoid from installing inception much longer. I was't interested in overclocking but this is a different story.

Incepted to my N9 without hassle.
I much rather set alarm using status menu.

_Excellent_
