This week is my 3rd weeks of playing Nintendo WII console. Hehehe … I bought this console after discussing with a friend about providing a game devices for our children. He said that, better for me to buy the WII, because playing WII means doing a moving activities, not just pushing the button like all other game devices, and that is good for our children.

And now, I totally agree with that. WII is different. WII means “body activity”, not just moving our finger.

But wait … this blog is not about talking what WII is. I like to share about hacking the WII console. I’m purely newbie in this area, that’s why I googling intensively about WII, and after 3 weeks, I found some interesting stuff about WII hacking.

1. Bannerbomb is a tools (or exploit?) to run an external application (ELF/DOL file) stored in the WII SD Card. This exploit need a specific binary file stored in the SD Card, and WII Channel menu to active it.

I just bought some PSP’s for my family (I have 2 kids) … Hehehe … yes, it is old stuff, but new in my daily activities. I just realize that playing PSP is fun enough, especially if we play it with others wirelessly. Our favorite game is Pac Man World Rally. It support up to 4 players …

I won’t write that fun situation, but PSP hacking stuff :)
Fortunately, almost all PSP that sold in my area is using CFW (I bought a used PSP, not the new ones). CFW is Custom Firmware, a firmware which is hacked, and have a capability to run PSP games saved in the memory card. Using this firmware we also able to run third party software, which is called homebrew. Read this article to get more information about that.

One of my PSP has an abnormal analog pad. The stick is too sensitive, and sometimes, it move accidently in the middle of the game. Disturbing enough … :( Googling, and I found a homebrew called joysens created by raphael@fx-world.org. This application has a capability to change the sensitivity of analog pad, and if you need it, fully disable it. Very helpfull application.

Buat temen-temen pemakai Windows Mobile 5, dan penyuka java kemungkinan besar sudah meng-install JBED. Kalau JBED yang diinstall temen-temen adalah JBED yang bukan Claudya (versi paling awal, kalo ndak salah), JBED yang sudah bisa diinstall di \Storage Card (bukan yang di \windows\appd), — saya sendiri menggunakan yang JBed_20071119.3.1_3dMod_HeapSizeFix_v3_wm5 — dibawah ini ada trik untuk mengubah font midlet java.

For Windows Mobile 5 users, who really love java, JBED is a really good application. If your JBED is NOT a Claudya (the 1st version if I’m not wrong), if your JBED is the one which has a capability to keep the installed midlet in the \Storage Card (not in \windows\appdb), (I am using JBed_20071119.3.1_3dMod_HeapSizeFix_v3_wm5), here is my explanation to change the java font.

By default, font yang digunakan oleh JBED di WM5 adalah Tahoma (kecuali di versi WM6, jbedRose yang sudah bisa diset dari registry JavaFont). Supaya bisa gonta-ganti font, dan TIDAK mempengaruhi software lain di WM5 yang juga pake font Tahoma, kita bisa lakukan:

By default, that JBED use Tahoma (not like jbedRose which use a JavaFont registry value to set the font). To modify it, without affecting all other application use the same Tahoma font, we can do these:

I just change my CDMA phone to MotoQ. So now, I use QWERTY windows mobile smatphone for both CDMA and GSM phone :) Here is my first tweak for MotoQ (I do googling, but found very minimum info about this “tweak”).

Hehehe … barusan ganti HP CDMA jadi MotoQ (tadinya Nokia 6275i). Jadi dech, sekarang pake 2 HP yang dua-duanya QWERTY, Windows Mobile :) Dan inilah tulisan saya tentang ngoprek MotoQ (udah googling, tapi kayaknya tweak ini kurang populer, atau nggak masuk kategori tweak ?)

If you are MotoQ user and not convenient with the phone keypad position (for me it is too left, rather difficult for one-right hand operation) … you can add or modify other keys to become a phone keypad using this registry tweak :

Buat pemakai MotoQ yang kurang sreg dengan lokasi tombol keypad untuk nelpon (buat saya agak terlalu ke kiri, kurang nengah) … bisa nambah atau ngubah tombol lain supaya berfungsi sebagai tombol keypad juga dengan registry tweak dibawah ini :

Continuing my JBed Rose exploration. Googling about changing the display font size with no luck, finally I found it by myself (:p) using IDAPro. If you are using JBed Rose and think that the main font size (and also font that is used in the java edit box) is too small, just try these registry tweak :

- create this key : \HKLM\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Font
- and then, create these string values :
-- style
-- size
-- face

For example, I use :
\HKLM\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Font\style = Nina
\HKLM\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Font\size = 18
\HKLM\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Font\face = Normal

Left image is the original About screen, and the right ones is the same screen after this registry tweak (size = 18).
