UPDATE (04/05/2008):
1. I’ve tested the above (in the previous update) mentioned
Jbed Java 3.1 20080222 (available
HERE; mirrored
HERE for your convenience). It runs flawlessly under WM5 (not only WM6). It supports 3D (tested with
Need for speed carbon and
Night Fever; neither of them run under the non-3D-capable
Cloudyfa 2.1), (as usual, excellent) sound. It can’t be directly installed onto a storage card, however. (As with some older versions, it’s possible it can be hacked there, though, with some manual file copying and registry / start menu link rewriting – I haven’t tested this.)
I’ve also thoroughly tested
JBed_20071119.3.1_3dMod_HeapSizeFix_v2_wm6(lovetz1 ) linked from
THIS MoDaCo thread. As a plus, it can be directly installed on a storage card, as opposed to the version above. It, however, doesn’t support sound at all. Otherwise, it seems it’s pretty much the same as the version above – except for WM5-compliance: I haven’t tested the WM5-compliant subversion. I’d stick with the 20080222 (the first) version unless you really need every single byte in your built-in storage.
Note that neither version was able to run the s60v3 (Nokia) version of
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, the latest-and-greatest real-time strategy from EA Mobile – upon loading the mission (and displaying the progress bar), it just locks up. (Needless to say, it’s working flawlessly on the Nokia N95 v20). It seems no Jbed version is compatible with this excellent game.
2. XDA-Devs user
JZ SmartMort has released a very promising title making Opera Mini the system-level browser much simpler and offering a LOT of additional functionality. See his thread
HERE. Note that he also posted a somewhat shorter post
HERE (in
THIS thread, should you also want to read the possible, future discussion of his app).
