Re: How to reinstall mp-fremantle-pr?

And make sure you have enough space. Did the APT cache location get moved to eMMC at some point? I know in PR1.0 and 1.1 it was on the 256MB partition, so would fill up if you tried to do a...

Re: How to reinstall mp-fremantle-pr?

As was stated previously, not having the mp-fremantle-pr package only matters to firmware update notifications in HAM. You can still apt-get dist-upgrade. Somehow on 1.0 I did something to lose the...

Re: Why I like the N900 despite its shortcomings

Being honest, I think you must be full of it, as I haven't had a lick of trouble with 1.2.

Re: PyQt: Python and Qt GUI - customized Dialogs - close Event handling - connection

Just connect the accepted() signal to a function in your class that does whatever work you need to do. It's pretty simple, as the dialog automatically closes. If you want to do some stuff in the...

Re: Support Texrat for being a great moderator

We all make mistakes. Best to learn from them and keep on keepin' on, IMO. ;)

Re: Apple invents s60-style task switcher

Odd, since everybody I know with a S60 (not all that many, being from the US) was able to figure it out pretty quickly once I told them that holding down the menu or home key would bring up the task...

A little praise, for once!

I haven't had much luck with the N900's GPS performance when network assistance wasn't available. Without assistance, GPS locks would take 5 or 10 minutes, if they ever happened. Until yesterday.

Re: Martin Fields - now have there Screen Protector ready.

Not super easy, but they do scratch some. I have had one on my E71 for years and it only has some minor surface scratches that you can only see if the light is at just the right angle.

The one I...

Re: AT&T 3G Works WTF -_-

T-Mobile doesn't program their SIMs to lie to you about the network you are using.

And yes, when you roam on at&t, you are using T-Mobile's Internet service. at&t (or other roaming carrier) only...

Re: Best Screen protector for N900 ( again)

I like Martin Fields. It's hard, and thus relatively easy to apply and highly durable, yet doesn't impact the sensitivity (at least on my 5800, my N900 screen protector won't get here until tomorrow)...

Re: Setting codec in SIP client

N900 follows the server's codec choice. I have mine set to g729,ulaw,gsm on the server side and in practice the choice is g729.

That's not to diminish the usefulness of forcing a different codec...

Re: Sabnzbd (or similar) port

I have it 'working,' but it slows down the device a lot when it's downloading. :(

It burns about 50% CPU when downloading, so it's not really feasible to use it for much unless you have a power...

Re: Disappointed with N900 - Reality Check!

Technically it is, but by the standard of multitasking we've used for 20 years now, it multitasks. Even multi-core computers multitask, since there are almost always more than even 8 processes...

Car insurance is completely different. The general liability policies are cheaper because people and companies almost always have other insurance policies that cover the more common claims.

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!

If you navigate the Best Buy site to the N900 or search for 'N900' and click on the device, it doesn't show up as available no matter what form of input you use.

Re: N900 specs revealed

How disappointing this whole thread is. I for one had no problem pocketing my N810. I loved the large size of the screen. Having recently purchased a 5800, I can say I'm not greatly enamored with...
