1. iTunesMOD? Java? CORElet?
2. Have no idea, maybe someone could port that code/patch to 49R, but it's hard work
3. I think not. Hardware doesn't support it.
4. I think not again. E398 has a processor that's working at 50MhZ. Have that in mind.
5. I don't know about camera... Video playing in JAVA needs more power! Because JAVA apps don't work straight with hardware like phones system and ELF apps
So, that's, too, not possible.
6. Don't know much about that... But I'm assuming that new standard need more CPU and RAM, so... One more time - no?
7. There's no patch for that... You can store up to 144 sms on elektro's firmwares. That's max. Why? Because SMS are stored in SEEMS on E398/ROKR. That's stupid, but we can't change it. Maybe someone will write a whole SMS system as an ELF, or something like that. That would be great
8. How? Wanna change the bluetooth chip?
9. They are (almost) all newer than E398 meaning they have more CPU, and probably more power in every way.
10. You can't make E398 faster. Trust me, it's fast! Only thing slow is loading 300kb Opera Mini! Other than that, it's blazing fast! My E8 clocked at 532MhZ and with 128mb swap memory is slower! But, it all depend on your firmware... My E398 is run by my custom 48R MP.
Linux isn't possible! It's been tested
Rosh_ga flashed ROKR E2's MotoMAGX and it wouldn't load! It just kept loading and heating the phone....
That probably wasn't done the right way, but E398 just doesn't have enough CPU and RAM!
11. A perfect MP will never exist
Ask anything more you want!
Cheers!
