Raccoon On My Mobile

What is raccoon doing on my phone? Raccoon is a mobile application that works for S60 (symbian 60) 2nd edition and probably will work on any FP3 device like 6630, 6680, N70 and N90. It will not work on a vanilla 2nd edition or FP1 device (6600 or earlier models). When Raccoon is successfully installed and configured on the phone, it serves as mobsite (mobile site) to your friends in your country. My friends in moblog and I used this application to share mobile application, ebooks and other files that we have on our phone. It’s like you’re hosting a website on your phone.

I’ve received a SMS from a friend, informed me that raccoon do works again after 2 years that Globe Telecoms blocked it. Let me share the information I’ve posted from my old moblog, dated August 6, 2006. Consider this article as a guide who want to explore more the power of your mobile phone.

Order of installation:

  1. python.sis
  2. raccoon.sis
  3. httpdconf_pm.sis if you installed raccoon.sis to your phone memory OR httpdconf_mc.sis if you installed it to your mmc
  4. webcontent.sis to the same location as the previous sis files

How to use it:

  1. open raccoon
  2. option
  3. settings
  4. set portal port to zero (the rest, no need to change even the identifier and password)

How to make raccoon work (default page)?

  1. Open fexplorer
  2. moved all your files you want to be seen on your mobsite page to e:apache/htdocs/
  3. exit fexplorer (Thats why it would be better if you installed all raccoon and python files on your memory card)
  4. Close all opened application
  5. Open raccoon
  6. Start cellular
  7. Choose gprs or inet connection
  8. Open ipviewer, ur ip would be your url. ex. http://10.30.4.109:80
  9. If you want to see your default page, open your built in browser without exiting raccoon
  10. connect to 127.0.0.1 – you will see now your default page

How to customize your mobsite?

  1. Open fexplorer > go to e:apache/htdocs/index.html > option > file > open with > application > change default to notes > save
  2. Open again index.html > the file should open to notes > save
  3. Go to menu and open notes > open the most recent file > edit > filename should be the same as the title > html code and color code guide is uploaded at my site, use it as reference to personalize your mobsite
  4. after editing, send it as mms to 1
  5. go to fexplorer again > open inbox (the one below z:(rom) or search the file to c: or e:system/mail > copy the .txt file and paste it to e:apache/htdocs > rename it to your desired name with .html ex. kulit.html > do step (1) and change notes to opera, save > click again the file and you will see now your output

Be creative on your mobsite layout.

How to know your mobsite address?

  1. Open raccoon
  2. start cellular
  3. choose inet or gprs
  4. open ip viewer
  5. you will see at the lowest part of the page your IP
  6. your addy now would be your IP+kulit.html. ex. http://10.30.4.109:80/kulit.html
  7. You can send it to your friends, have them connect using 3rd party browser and inet connection

How to send a single file using raccoon?
Get the IP and the exact filename using IP viewer. The format would be like this http://10.30.4.109:80/Python.S60.1stEd.v1.31.zip Your friend can use default browser, opera or fget to download the file using gprs or inet connection.

NOTE: This entry is based on my experience using my 6630. I will try if I can browse on the mobsite using PC if its possible next time.
