Back in July of 2011 I posted http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/mae...ly/028479.html indicating that I was starting work on reverse engineering the Mode Control Entity (MCE). At the time I had obstacles in the way of properly reverse engineering it.

Thanks to some new reverse engineering skills, new reverse engineering tools, the discovery of an x86 binary version of MCE in the Fremantle SDK repository and the discovery of various bits of usefull information in various public source trees (especially various git revisions of the MeeGo/Harmattan MCE tree), after a few months of really hard reverse engineering work I can now present a working Fremantle PR1.3 MCE tree.

http://www.cncmods.net/files/mce_1.8.126+0m5.tar.gz contains the source code and http://www.cncmods.net/files/mce_1.8.126+0m5_armel.deb is a working ARMEL binary (I am running it on my phone right now with no issues)

If you wish to compile it yourself, read the file INSTALL in the tarball.

It should (assuming there are no bits of code I failed to properly reverse engineer) be a 100% clone of the Fremantle PR1.3 1.8.126+0m5 MCE.
