Just like the Nokia N70 before it, the Nokia N73, my new phone, and iSync aren’t quite up to speed with each other . As before just add the stanza below to the MetaClasses.plist file to bluff support. It’s actually just a quickly butchers N70 stanza with the usb id yanked.
I’ve not been away from the keyboard for that long have I? I’ve been away for a week Boating, but still not sure where the rest of the time has gone.
Still, let me introduce my latest ‘quickly-knocked-together–over-the-weekend’ project. It’s not much really, but since I’ve been meaning to play with Javascript for a long time it was the first thing that came to mind.
I find myself using this when I complete another level on the Internet.
If you’re a fan of Apple and Nokia you’re probably already familiar using iSync to sync your phone with your desktop. Although if you’re a Nokia N70 user you’ll discover out of the box Tiger won’t sync by default, you’ll have to partake in a little hackery-pokery.

Here’s a quick update to let you know how things are progressing. The hardware problems with the rack have been sorted and nightly builds should be running again.
I’ve also rebuilt the compiler again to target the xscale processor directly so we sould be able to get better executables from it, and I also patched it to correct some bugs in the last compilers floating point for arm processors. The new compiler will target the nwfpe floating point emulation in the kernel directly now. Although it appears that the floating point compiled into the kernel on the wma has debugging enable which is why you get all these exception messages in the kernel log. Never mind, eh?… I’ll upload it shortly once I’ve tested it a little more.
I’ve also branched the source tree and I’m working on moving the existing code base to use Evas for all it’s graphics. If it works well and doesn’t take too much memory the results should be very nice indeed, and we’ll get some nice alpha blending too.. ;-p
After Evas is working I plan in integrating the EWL widget library so we can replace my crappy listboxes and dialogue boxes.
Then I plan on replacing the flashed kernel with a newer one and a decent boot loader once that’s all done.
Until next time…
You may have noticed recently that the nightly builds haven’t updated over the last few days. Unfortunately I’ve lost the network card in main build machine due to a power failiure / spike and it’s not coming back online. Because it’s a rackmount it’s not a simple case of replacing the NIC. I hope to get it back online in the next few days if I can get a replacement.
