Thanks syddd,

As you say i would not flash anything. I'm not an expert either.

In other ocassions a command useful to me was to boot (not flash) into custom recovery. For recovery I would try one working on similar hardware ... And from there, install superuser to root. If it is simply a clean android, that should do it.

As I said previously on other posts, I will start doing this works on mine once I got one by mid-april.

Remember, It is always important to backup current status!
[Nokia N1] inakipaz:
As I first step I will test something like it appears on this guide for the nexus 7:

Adapting things to similar hardware ...

Trying fastboot boot with custom recovery to know if the device is locked. If it is it should not allow this operation.

Something like method 1 in this other guide

[Nokia N1] syddd:
Thanks for the guide!

I tried to follow the clockworkmod recovery one, but could not dump the boot partition. I am thinking of extracting it from the official ROM, I just dont know where those are... We could find out by snooping on the connection while the device gets a new update.

EDIT: Also "fastboot boot test.img" results in:

C:\>fastboot boot test.img

creating boot image...

creating boot image - 2048 bytes

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 2.521s]

BUT the device does not reboot and I see the following for a split second:

"boot command stubbed in this platform!"

where test.img is just an emty file. Does this mean that the boolloader is locked?

EDIT2: I've managed to get 2 update files by clicking the "check for update" button and snooping with Wireshark what happens. It makes a POST request to http://www.fc811.com/OTA/GetOTAFirm...&fw_id=A5CN30B&serial_no=XXXXXXXX&version=1.0 , where serial_no is the serial of your device (found in the about menu) and fw_id is your current firmware. I could download 2 firmwares with this method A5CN30B and A5CN315B. Both are minor updates, if someone has the fw version from the initial release it would be useful because we could get the 5.0.2 update.

I've put these in my dropbox: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9186429/nokia_n1/A5CN30B_update.zip https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9186429/nokia_n1/A5CN315_update.zip

Both have a droidboot.img file inside them, which is a RAMdisk boot image.
[Nokia N1] inakipaz:
Really really nice advances!!

Thanks! You`ve been able to download I think a valid ROM for the device! Now it should be explored ...

And yes, I suppose the boot is locked which means it will not be easy to make changes.

We will need more expert hands to guide on what's next ...

In my opinion I would try to open the Image you have downloaded.
[Nokia N1] syddd:
I've opened it, as you can see they are simple .zip files. But they are not ROMs. Part of them are Android patchfiles which contain just binary diffs. The bootloader is a RAMDisk which can be opened and patched with the methods you linked. The big question is whether they can be installed or not.

EDIT: see my other post, one of the older updates contains a full system image
[Nokia N1] siemens_wolf:
I've been using for about 2 months. And had it repaired once, 'coz of screen issues. They sent me a new one. Very nice! Just the color changed from silver, originally, to grey, otherwise is fine.

The battery is good. It could last longer, if very much, when compared with N7.2013.LTE. The new Intel Atom looks very promising. But as you all know, there's no google play store. So I left it sleeping in the drawer.
[Nokia N1] inakipaz:
New Play Store APK available. Just in case can anyone test it on the device?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1996995

Hope it now works ...
[Nokia N1] syddd:
It does not work.

It installs normally, but closes when I open it, just like previous versions. The problem is that play store/Google play services need some special permissions that need root. So no root = no play store.

How to install Amazon store or APKs for Nokia N1?

How did you install Amazon Store or APKs files for Nokia N1? It seems that it cannot anything except from Chinese App store coming with Chinese ROM version. Thanks
[Nokia N1] sadfrog_lin:
Install ES explorer in Chinese app store, then you can install APKs which you transfer into N1 by connecting PC.

---------- Post added at 01:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 AM ----------

Today is the day for N1 Taiwan version available, which of course integrates Google service.

Let's wait and see what N1 can do with Google.
[Nokia N1] kvalvik:
installing apk

Apps can be easily installed by downloading their apk, some install directly by clicking the download, for others you need ES File Explorer to install them.

These apps have been working perfectly for weeks now:

- Firefox

- Aquamail

- Skype

- TuneIn-Radio

- aCalendar (but it doesn't sync)

- Chrome

- google calendar

However, some of them, such as Aquamail, cannot be upgraded directly.

Many other apps either freeze or crash, sometimes it says that they require Google play service, and while you can install the apk of google play service (as well as the one of Play Store), they will not work on the N1 -- hopefully NOT YET. With Xiaomi it was similar, once the device was available outside China, Play store could be installed through the apk even on our device bought in China.
[Nokia N1] ol trusty:
So it is released!

How does the process now work ?

Does someone extract the Google Play Services APK from the device or does google make it available online?
[Nokia N1] kvalvik:
No changes yet despite N1 on sale in Taiwan

Play Store and Play Service still don't work:

through apk4fun.com you can install many apps easily, but quite a few, such as Andropen (the android version of OpenOffice" or Strava will not run b/c they require Google Play Service which can be installed, but will stop immediately. It says the app doesn't work b/c "the device doesn't support Google Play Service, contact your manufacturer"... So Nokia, please liberate us....

Otherwise, the N1 is running great
[Nokia N1] kvalvik:
Update

There is a new website with apps customized for the N1, n1apk.com, with "Play Services" available for download, but there is a "Parsing Error" when trying to install it, despite "unknown sources" . With ohter apps, the site doesn't properly work yet, but it looks like a promise.
[Nokia N1] syddd:
N1 in Taiwan is NOT avaiable yet

FYI Nokia held a release event in Taiwan on the 28th April.

Here they announced that you can buy it from the middle of May - this might mean that it will ship from this date, so add a few days until people get it.

So dont freak out, no one has an international version of the N1 yet, we need to wait a few weeks.

If people begin to receive it (in around 3 weeks), then hopefully someone uploads the ROM/play services APK. Then hopefully it can be installed on the china variant.

Also do not link questionable websites, that promise stuff but do not deliver. That n1 site looks like a linkbait, in the best case they just want to make advertisement money in the worst its about installing malware on your tablet.

Only link sites if you verified that they have useful content, otherwise you risk getting banned.
[Nokia N1] jksgan:
I did manage to install Google Play and all the apps using the Google installer used by the Xiaomi method onto a brand new Asus Zenfone 2 basically sporting the same hardware as my N1. Everything is working fine on my Asus, including all the Google apps and play store. However when I did the same on the N1, Play store would go all the way to sign in and the would keep saying "no internet connection".

I have stopped trying for now but will try again. If anyone else has any luck with this would appreciate some advice.
[Nokia N1] sadfrog_lin:
I've been experienced the same thing. Then I saw someone post fixed play service and store on China's ZOL N1 forum, installed them, and boom.... Login successfully.

Although google service will stop, and still can not enter play store, some games need GSF can play now, like HEARTHSTONE, Hobbit:kingdoms of middle earth.

[IMG="Hearthstone"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23151618/pic/hearthstone.png[/IMG]

Below is how I work:

1. reset to factory

2. Download This Google downloader, and install it

3. Open Google installer, select play store install, and will bring-up another 3-4 apps to install, like SYNC, play service... Install them all.

[IMG="Install this, and finish the bring-up other apps installation."]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23151618/pic/Installer-small.png[/IMG]

4. Install Fixed play store and Fixed Google Play Service

5. Login Google account<----should be successful

That's all.
[Nokia N1] crys_:
The Xiaomi method does not work as the provided APKs are meant for Android 4.4. They do not work properly on Android 5.0 and are therefore not usable. I tried this right after I got mine and I also did some investigation in the logs, I don't remember the actual error but it was something that looked like incompatibility with 5.0. Besides this the Play Services continued to crash in background.
[Nokia N1] syddd:
[MENTION=3675381]sadfrog_lin[/MENTION] I've tried your method:

Play store just displays no connection, Maps just crashes, a game that needs google play (monster strike) just crashes too.

Amazon appstore works fine

I just installed the Amazon AppStore. And it works, most of time. I downloaded a few apps from Amazon Store. It was successful. Most are working fine, some others just did not.，e.g.，the Minion Rush turned out not working with N1. While the the Minion Rush works well with all other Android devices, such as N5, N7, and LG G3 from me.

With no Google Play Store available, this is a temporary solution.
[Nokia N1] C_Karhu:

Here, Google Map works well, too, but I can't sign in.. Assumingly, b/c Google Play Service doesn't work. Can you sign in on Google Maps?

I'm going to China in a couple of weeks and I was thinking of buying a Nokia N1 but after reading these comments I just don't want it anymore. What's the point of buying a tablet where you can't basically do most of the things you can do on a normal Android device or spend hours just trying to set up one of them. Imagine updating the apps or games as well! Why would someone buy it and why would Nokia not release it anywhere else but China even after 8 months of the official release? The device is already old!

Hi! Thanks for your tutorial!

My problem is I don't have "Install zip from sdcard option" in recovery.

Where is it supposed to be???

My problem comes from the default driver used in bootloader interface.

I have to change it for "Android Bootloader Interface" each time I use temp CWM and the .bat.

Windows 8.1 is sometimes strange...
[Nokia N1] siemens_wolf:
My problem is that after STEP 5, the N1 tells me that the sdcard can't be mounted. So I couldn't install the zip file.:(

I did the play store custom recovery and everything has been working perfectly. I had the tablet on charge all night. This morning was working fine. This morning did a reboot of my tablet. Now it is stuck in continuous boot loop. Dont know why. I have tried to get into recovery by using (Power + volume up) then once screen turns off (Power + volume down). Nothing happens (screen is blank). Im really stuck. If anyone has ideas i would really appreciate it.

fastboot problem

I have problems with this step. I've done everything according the instructions, N1 has USB debugging enabled and MTP mode for USB connectivity but still I always get the unknown/unknown status. I've tried this with two separate laptops, other running Windows7 and other one Windows8.1, same problem. I even downloaded latest ABR drivers (1.9) directly from Intel, but no help. First the Windows recognizes N1 and uses some dead-old (year 2006) drivers, but I was able to manually enforce it to use the ones that came with Intel ABR (placed in Program files -> Intel Android ABR (or something like that). There are different .dll files, which one is the one to use? I think I've tried at least mtp, abr and compusb. N1 displays that USB connection is ok and also shows that USB debugging is enabled when connected via USB. I can browse N1 just fine, but fastboot is unable to detect it.

I just realized I haven't run fastboot as administrator, is that required? Don't have the tablet with me right now.
[Nokia N1] dqtrung:

Everything is working like a charm! I had problem with AOSP but I just disabled the spell checking and problem disappeared. Installed smart keyboard pro anyway immediately from Google Play, so I don't need android keyboard for anything anyway.

Chrome had some problems, clearing data didn't help, but I uninstalled the whole application and re-downloaded APK files, installed and worked. Sign-in works like a charm and I have my bookmarks.

Google play doesn't let me install all applications, such as Chrome and Maps because N1 is not supported, but they are all available as APK files are work.
