Thanks found a working link

You have probably seen "Resurrect your N9" Wiki:https://wiki.maemo.org/Resurrect_your_N9

Pretty much every available free app. available here:http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...51&postcount=1 but probably your most essential app. is N9Repomirror here:https://openrepos.net/content/ancelad/n9-repomirror

Recommissioned N9 64GB only last week so have probably met up with most of issues, so give a shout if run into any problems.
I was pre-owned but in used condition. Broken USB-cover, cracks in the case but good enough to get a feel of this device.

Well, here come's my shout:
So far; 2nd reflash already done

I'm trying to set up my N9 but I already failed miserably.
I want a working N9 with unrestricted system UI + tools as that provides a toggle to control the UI-orientation as Accelerometer is probably borked. Right now I don't have the tools to disconnect the battery.

I need Developer-mode for terminal anyway. But do I need open-mode? If yes I might have to flash openmode kernel, right?

Once enabled developer-mode I can gain root using the passwd: "rootme"


What's currently the best filemanager?
Filecase or Filebox, or something else?

Regards to the browser, is installing other browsers worth it? If so, which ones?

Billboard application is very nice But my lowpowerscreen is very pixelated, wonder how this happened... Even after uninstalling billboard. Hmmm :P 3rd reflash coming?


What to do after reflash?
1. Instal N9-repomirror
2. Enable Dev-Mode
3. Install system-ui (unrestricted + tools) but how? Trusted repo or N9Qtweak?

4. Fix maps / Drive
5. Fix weather widget - edit: Hmmm MeeCast doesn't work here in The Netherlands, any other suggestions?

6. Fix browser using myTopSites

7. Install other apps:
Must-have apps I found for myself are:
Warehouse
Billboard
Gconfik
FileCase
OpenVideoPlayer
CuteTube


This post is a bit of a guide for myself too
