METHOD I After
gathering information from various sources I have finally managed to
compile a decent guide to install N-Gage 2.0 on the Nokia 5800 / 5800xm using the
files which have been circulating the web for the past few months. The guides
I have had to use are poorly written/translated from Persian so
hopefully the following guide will be easy to understand and follow. Installing NGage:
Download the NGage Install Package which I have compiled here.
For
this to correctly work, you will need to have your phone hacked, this
should be no problem providing you have a little confidence and common
sense. A guide on hacking your phone using HelloOX can be found on this site.
I can confirm that using HelloOX does work. If you're phone is already
hacked with HelloOX and you're having trouble, ensure that all patches
(open4all etc.) are applied and set to auto using ROMPatcher.
Copy the file "NGage 2.0 Installer.sis"
to your phone and install it. You will need to sign the file using
SignSIS or a similar application, you should already have a
certificate if you have hacked your phone as you need to sign HelloOX
to hack successfully. The install process will take quite some time and
you will be prompted to press "Yes" to various warnings. I can confirm
that no harm has come to my phone from this process.
Once NGage 2.0 Installer.sis has
been installed, you will be able to find it under "Applications" on
your phone. The icon will be an orange "N" and it will say "Games"
underneath. To play N-Gage 2.0 games they must be copied to "E:\N-Gage" with
"E:\" being your memory card.
Controlling NGage: Since
NGage is designed for phones with a keypad, and the Nokia 5800 is
almost completely touchscreen, the controls must be customized. I have
so far come up with two solutions, they are as follows.
Control Method 1: This is the most stable and easy to configure control scheme, I can confirm this works OK.
Sign and install "Virtual Keyboard.sis" which can be found in the "Control Method #1" folder of the Install Package.
Run
the virtual keyboard application from your "Applications" menu and then
start the NGage application. You can use the Virtual Keyboard to
control your games.
Control Method 2: This
control scheme is still a work in progress but, with some fiddling and
a varying degree of luck, you may be able to get it to work. Some
people have confirmed it working with different settings. I feel that
this setup, if working correctly, would be the best way to control
NGage on a Nokia 5800. I would like to request feedback from anyone who
has this method working!
Sign and install "Virtual
Keyboard.sis" and then "Virtual Key.sis", both of which can be found in
the "Control Method #2" folder of the Install Package.
Start up "Virtual Keyboard" so that you have it running on screen and then proceed to start up "Virtual Key".
In the Virtual Key application, choose "Options" then "Load Mode" and choose "Custom Mode 1".
Press
"Options" then "Add". Highlight "Original Key" and then press the Right
arrow on the Virtual Keyboard application you loaded earlier. Then
highlight "Mapped Key" and hold down the "Volume -" key then press the
"Volume +" key. If all has worked correctly the mapped key should
change to "Vol+". Then do the same for the following:
Mapped:
Original:
Vol+
Left
Vol-
Right
No
Up
Yes
Down
Camera
OK
Then press "Options" and save your "Custom Mode 1".
Set the Virtual Key application to run in the background and completely exit the Virtual Keyboard application.
Start
up the NGage application and try to play a game. Hopefully the Up/Down
volume keys will control Left/Right when holding the phone
horizontally, and the other keys should do what you mapped them to
above. You may have to use the volume keys in the same way you had to
set them (Hold down Vol- and press Vol+ etc)
METHOD II This way those who have Nokia 5800 with no key
and only Shtabsnj phone can all play with each other implements in the
Nokia N97 Nokia 5800 will also run. First of all must be Download 3
files (Installer N-Gage5800, RockNScroll, VirtualKey), there are three that should install on your phone.
After
installing the three software, Run Rock.N.Scroll, with this software
you can phone up your direction keys to simulate your phone.
Run
VirtualKey run from Gzynh, Add Options and select the image below in
accordance with their phone to replace keys virtual move. 4 for this
work to do on the virtual key image according to the simulation you are
