AI Agent on a Nokia

What is AI Agent on a Nokia?

Reverse-engineered the firmware of a Nokia 110 4G to run a custom AI agent directly on the device. Users interact with the agent through the phone keypad, sending text messages that trigger built-in hardware functions.

The agent connects to the DeepSeek chat API and uses tool calls to manage tasks like checking battery levels, toggling the flashlight, placing calls, setting alarms, and querying information via the SIM card data connection. The developer modified the stock Calculator app to serve as the chat interface and used OpenAI Codex during development.

The prototype currently runs in RAM and must be loaded from a computer each time the phone powers on or restarts. Permanent installation requires further firmware work. Memory constraints limit the agent to a highly compressed, custom-built version rather than standard large language model code.
