You don't need open mode

do you have the latest inception?

Hello,

Yup, I have the latest (0.2.5)...is this still the latest version?

Been doing this with Inception (from newly-flashed device, with unrestricted-system-ui) but still no luck; also did various installation sequences from newly-flashed device (new flash->Inception->unrestricted-system-ui->Patch, and some other ways around).

Open Mode is the only thing I haven't tried this patch on yet...I'm trying out the file version made by mikhail by the way, since I was experiencing the same issue that he has when he tried out Vesuri's (that the device is complaining about the Qt version as well as the version of libmeegotouchcore, a.k.a. the first .deb file).

Thanks for pitching in sir.

Friends,

Whew...finally. I got it to (somehow) work, lol...I'm posting here to document my "little adventure" to have this solved...initially for my own reference, but might as well share it. But first, I'd like to thank the following through the course of this adventure:

HtheB - for accommodating my questions via PM...very nice guy...and for giving me a "very good tip" about the N950.
Arie - sent him a PM but unfortunately he was already offline (still would like to thank him)...sent him a follow-up PM to mention that it is solved now.
mikhail_ramalho - for answering my queries via posts in the thread as well as via PM.
coderus - haven't had interaction with him, but would like to thank him for the "back-ported" versions of unrestricted-system-ui.
Vesuri - of course, for coming up with the patch.

1. Flash the N950
2. Enable Developer Mode
3. Enable/Install Inception

---------------------

(steps I experimented on):

4. Installed a "back-ported" version of unrestricted-system-ui by coderus from Post #115 of the "Unrestricted system-ui" thread in lieu of the regular versions from MAG's repository: libnotificationsystem, unrestricted-system-ui, beep-icons

Note: Installed them via Inception, from Root Terminal.

5. Initially I was trying my best to install mikhail's version of libmeegotouchcore0, since I had the exact same experience as him, where the installation was complaining that I was trying to install a higher version when I used Veruri's version of libmeegotouchcore0.

6. Through conversation via PM with HtheB, I was advised that Vesuri's version will work, even on PR 1.2. So at this point where I had used the "back-ported" version of unrestricted-system-ui by coderus I mentioned in Step 4, and since I have been re-flashing, I gave it one more shot. Went on to installing Vesuri's libmeegotouchcore0, in spite of Terminal giving me the same complaint/errors (installed via Inception from Root Terminal).

7. Installed Vesuri's landscape theme, and then reboot the device.

So far, so good.,,the Clock, Phone, Music apps rotate to landscape (Store already opens in landscape when physical keyboard is open prior - already mentioned by Vesuri and also confirmed it).

At this point, I am just wondering if there will be anticipated problems in the future, since I installed:

1. a "back-ported" version of unrestricted system-ui
2. libmeegotouchcore0 that is supposed to be for PR 1.3

Any thoughts will be appreciated.

PS: I am still hoping that I can get mikhail's version to work.

False Alarm.

After a few minutes, some apps turned into red squares with exclamation points...looking at the affected apps, these are the ones that would normally prompt you for Software Updates:

Maps
Drive
Music Store
Store
Facebook
Twitter
AP Mobile
Angry Birds
Terminal

Oh well...back to Square 1.

EDIT: @mikhail

From my limited experience and knowledge (I'm still in the learning stages, my apologies), I opened up your version of libmeegotouchcore0 via 7zip and this is what I saw:



...if my understanding is correct, "ceteli04" is like the usergroup or user of your physical computer, correct? If so, then now I think I know why your deb file runs on your end, but not on my end...is that a "correct" observation? Because based from the error output that I posted previously, I think the installation is failing because it's unable to set permissions.

Just wanted to share so that this can be fixed, if applicable.

Yeah, ceteli04 is my user

You can repack the package using the following comands:

(you can do as sudo if you want too)

I'll try to repack it as sudo and upload again to dropbox.

Thank you! Yes I will try to repack, but will also appreciate a newly-uploaded version...just so I can check if I did the re-packing correctly.

EDIT: To confirm: on the "do something..." part...this is where I can start modifying the ownerships (chown) to the default "root", prior to continuing the build steps, right?

Yeah, you can modify anything, from dependencies on the control files to binaries
