I’m having problems with camera after this update, camera now has noise stripes and also images taken with camera, didn’t have this issue with older 200.21.118.
I regret that i updated my firmware, so I recommend to all to avoid this 210.21.007 update, it’s not worth sacrificing camera if your phone is working stable

hello, first, I’ll thank for posting;

second, I want you to ask how the hell did you managed to pass “applaying patches…” because I can’t hack either with version 1.02 either with 1.03

thanks in advance!

P.S. I have 200.21.118 installed on my E66

Funny how you’re having problems with your camera with this firmware. I don’t have that problem on my camera.

Here’s a couple of unadulterated shots from my Nokia E66 with this firmware:

I honestly didn’t find any changes from the previous firmware. My Nokia E66 still shoots half decent pics :D

You need to have a certificate to sign the HelloOx 1.02 application. I just obtained one from the net and installed it in my phones’ memory cards.

of course that I signed HelloOx with a certificate, otherwise It didn’t let me to install even to that point (applaying patches).

But guess what, after a few tries, I MANAGED to hack with HelloOx 1.03 and I am so happy now! The program passed ” applaying patches… ” level and it finished the setup(s). Now it’s hacked and I can install everything and I am so happy :)

I just hate that the bat. on E66 is only 1000 mAH, let’s say I don’t expect 1500 but around 1300…

thanks for answering

I’m glad you were able to ‘patch’ it with HelloOX. The battery is enough for me. As long as it’s still juiced up at the end of the day, I’m fine with it. Of course, my E71’s batt is much much better :)

Hi,

Does the helloOX version 1.03 provide system folder accessibility as well as being able to install unsigned apps?

I mean, does it work for good, or just partial?

Any help will be appreciated…

Ola, Marcio! Did you by any chance tried to change your phone’s product code prior to the update? If you did, please make sure that the product code that you replaced with your original one should have the language (Portuguese?) that you need… You can always change your product code then do another upgrade :)
