Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

Actually, there aren't that many fake N900s out there anymore - it's no longer considered to have wide enough appeal to fake. Most of the cheaper ones which are advertised as "new" are actually...

Re: [Announce/WIP][Alpha] MeeCoLay - run Harmattan apps on Fremantle!

A number of Harmattan packages need to be installed with dpkg --force-all. Note that this doesn't guarantee they'll work correctly - it also breaks (partially?) apt-get until you go into...

Re: [Announce]: MaeFlight for Maemo 5

The problem with removing Maeflight (assuming you installed it recently - unsure what the situation is if you've installed it while it was working) isn't so much that the uninstall step causes a...

Re: [Announce] Google Voice client qgvdial is ready for testing

Something's a tad wrong with the build in the Maemo repository:

Fremantle Extras-devel free armel qgvdial 0.3.1229-1
Fremantle Extras-devel free i386 qgvdial 0.3.1368-1

(Apparently the new...

Re: N900 Made in Finland purchased on Ebay, Isīt Original?

Yep. These are, in fact, more or less fine phones - they've probably just been refurbed to some degree or another. Now, this being said - don't be surprised if you run into some degree of issues...

Re: Problems with N900 USB port becoming broken / loose and resulting warranty & repair issues

So, after quite some time, I finally have my N900 (which charges perfectly fine, but doesn't seem to have data connection at all - which is an issue as I need to reflash the thing but I can't...)...

Re: Is it possible to revive a N900 with U-Boot enabled and broken USB?

If you flashed the 0.4-2 release of Pali's u-boot and it half-bricked, the issue is that the bootloader somehow causes kernels to not recognize the presence of the 256MB NAND device at all. If you...

Re: Buying a n900 from hong kong ebay?

They're perfectly legit. They're not new, however, and, unfortunately, they also seem to have a fair share of problems - a lot of the time, if the USB port had to be fixed, the repair isn't done...

Re: Fixing USB port, before and after it is to late. (All info in one Thread) (See POST #1)

Hey everyone,

While the JAF box idea looks interesting (and quite convenient and relatively cheap - there's one going for about 35 USD on EBay right now), the JAF cables for the N900 that I've...

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

Tried that. Got something rather odd:

sysinfo: Phone info (block phone-info) read failed (-1)
CMT: cannot open phonet0: no such device
Waiting for messages...

And it just hangs there.

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

I got "could not connect to 127.0.0.1" before the execution of flasher when using softupd - after which flasher came up with the same error. Kernel-power-flasher's postinit uses fiasco-image-update...

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

If the USB port actually worked, I wouldn't have to go through all of this just to reflash the kernel ;).

I just tried using flasher built into the n900 image by adding it to a custom boot script...

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

Extended question (might be a bit off topic): How would I boot RescueOS off of the SD card using U-Boot?

Edit: Got it. Slightly complicated, though. And for some odd reason, I can't mount rootfs...

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

See the Nemo wiki. In essence, if you already have a working U-Boot, just write the image to the SD card using dd or whatever tool your OS uses for doing this, put the SD card in your N900, boot with...

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.04-2)

Well, I tried installing 0.4-2 with kernel-power-bootimg, and it promptly bricks my n900 (the same issue with booting being stuck at "Starting Kernel"). However, the N900 boots off the SD card just...
