So I thought jailbreaking an iPhone was an annoyingly tedious task. Looks like the process for a Nakia e63 and symbian is even more tricky. Nokia have really locked down their system. But there is a hack. Only problem is getting it onto your phone in the first place.

If you just want to run uncertified software (you may be a developer or running tests), you’ll need to have a developer certificate. This will allow you to self sign your own applications and specifically the HelloOX. At the time of writing HelloOX 1.4 is the latest version. This will unlock your phone to unsigned apps.

In order to install HelloOX, you’ll need to get a certificate. At the moment there is a Chinese website which will give you 1 certificate for free. Certificates are based on IMEI. That means it will only work for your phone. There’s a great guide to using this site for people who don’t read Chinese here.

Once you’ve obtained the certificate, you’ll be able to sign stuff using the guide on this site. If you’re only going to install a few apps, you can sign them yourself, or download HelloOX to remove the need to sign.

Good luck!
