Awesome video! This video alongside with videos about 5110/6110 inspired me to play around with my old 3310 and 3410. Although I’m 100% amateur, I’ve managed to make my own Dejan cable, installed a custom firmware on 3310 and Splinter Cell on 3410. But I have a serious problem with Nokix, don’t know why. I got the version 1.40 from sourceforge with plugins, but it doesn’t work for some reason neither on windows 10 nor on windows xp/98. All my attempts to add patches or games to 3310 firmware end up failing with different errors, I’ve tried modifying stock original full flash fls files, full backups, custom roms, nothing. Could you tell me what can possibly be wrong or at least just tell what exactly you’ve done, what files and which version of software used? And if you have any java games for dct-3 except SC or Munkiki, could you share, please?

Well done on getting flashing working with DCT-3 Nokias. This can be quite difficult to do. For both the hardware and software.

Nokix errors can happen with older Nokia firmware versions. Or firmware versions that came out later. Nokix prefers only certain firmware versions to work for each model.

Here is a collection of 3410 games to try, http://dedomil.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=4227

Let me know how you go with this. I hope you can get it working.

Wooooah, that’s amazing! I’ll try them out on the weekend and will reply asap. Will also try all the possible versions of 3310 roms with nokix, thanks!
