Re: Absolutely Positively No Downgrade?

I do have another N9, which is in closed mode on PR1.3 region 001 - there are hints in this thread that it may be possible to use this to "downgrade" a localised N9 to region 001, but no link to...

Re: Absolutely Positively No Downgrade?

What can I do if I have a 339 (Swedish) N9 with PR1.3? I've spent quite some time searching but have been unable to find this firmware, and the 001 version gives "Downgrade disallowed". Only good for...

Re: Replaced battery, N9 now spontaneously reboots

To put these figures into perspective, a single LED typically draws about 0.05W. And I mean the small red/yellow/green indicator type LEDs you'll find on the front of a lot of consumer electronics....

Re: Replaced battery, N9 now spontaneously reboots

Also, am I the only one who is still astonished by the stupendously low stand-by power usage of the N9? When I checked the battery monitor app in the pub earlier I got a warning: "Idle power drain...

Re: Replaced battery, N9 now spontaneously reboots

FWIW, I just got back after ~12h out and about, during which I used my N9 with the PolarCell battery. Happy to say I had no issues with spontaneous reboots or shut-downs, so that does seem to have...

Re: Nokia Name to Return to Smartphones in Bet on Brand’s Power

No. It's an "intelligent" bathroom scale. As in infuriatingly stupid, ugly and intrusive.

An intelligent bathroom scale wouldn't waste its time weighing people.

Re: Replaced battery, N9 now spontaneously reboots

Ok, third time lucky; I opened the phone again and took a look at the battery connector under the microscope. I'm pretty sure I found the problem: the PolarCell battery actually has the wrong...

Re: Nokia Name to Return to Smartphones in Bet on Brand’s Power

Agreed. I also think it wasn't so much that MeeGo and Qt was a "burning platform" as it was that it was too good. A very slick OS built with a nicely integrated framework & UI toolkit, which is still...

Nokia Name to Return to Smartphones in Bet on Brand’s Power

Can you believe these f*****g clowns? Reduced to pump & dump using Chinese handsets & spyware from Mountain View. Conmen, thugs and thieves the lot of them.

Re: Nokia Q4 results are out. Lost $ 1.4 Billion. Now what Nokia will do ???

I still think Elop is a shill and that this is basically a take-over of Nokia by Mircosoft. No-one can be that incompetent and bullishly arrogant at the same time. Eliminate competing product. Check....
