Re: PR 1.2 is OUT In UK!!
 
Just reverted back to stock kernel in anticipation of the update...from 900 to 500mhz...its not pretty! I assume that the transitions.ini file that i've edited will be reset to stock when the update installs? So just a case of saving the file to paste back in afterwards.

A few minutes ago I saw the orange ! on my status bar, got mega excited only to find it was an update for MSN pecan!!

You've answered your own question... Was it ever announced?
When I spoke to Nokia shot in Meadowhall they said it is coming in the next big update, I would class this update as the one they are referring to, I use this alot to see and speak to my children as I work away for months on end, without this feature over the last 2 years they probably wouldnt know my face or voice.
This feature is very important to me and i understand if you dont use it much but i do and i am sure some other people will too.

Re: PR 1.2 is OUT In UK!!
 
Nothing on MENA firmware in the UK, but I got impatient and flashed it via flasher on ubuntu anyway =D..
first bootup took forever
>theyv got a shortcut to ukeyboard on the desktop, guessing that's for the multi-language support
part that looks just like the leaked version

Re: Nokia N900 PR1.2 Officially Released Today
 
i saw a video where it was shown that the leaked 1.2 version allowed a short cut for portrait mode in other applications than the browser, like the email client for e.g

is this possible only with pressing ctrl shift and r or can this be set in the options to rotate by default in the official version? which other applications can now be rotated?

First someone says that it was never advertised and they are proven wrong, and now you come on and say that it's a show-off feature no one needs anyway. Way to go...
I'm not a fanboi, if you'd bother to check my posts you'd know that. However, phone-to-phone video calling was never announced nor advertised - the sheet specifically said that video calling availability will be announced in the future. No video calling is also an announcement in that context. Tho, Nokia never announced either.

Now stop asking stupid questions and having stupid arguements!

This is for those asking about/arguing about the ovi store and video calling.

First up – new games join the veritable arcade already on offer in Ovi Store. Jurassic 3D Rollercoaster, Zen-bound, Angry Birds (level pack), Sygic, Kroll, Weatherbug, and GoGadget are all available to keep you entertained. Important to note though that Ovi Store will do a full switchover this week Thursday, May 27, so these games and other for-purchase apps will show up then.

Has anyone been able to update OTA on O2? I wonder if they are blocking the d/l of over 100MB over 3G.
Might try and update when at home connected to my WLAN.

Trying to update to Pr1.2 but when trying to install the update it keeps saying " To update your device to this version of the operating system you must use the nokia software application on your pc. Connect the device to your PC via USB via a cable and launch application"

I though this was OTA.

Do I have to update this damm sofwtare using the flasher ?

Tks

Re: PR 1.2 is OUT In UK!!
 
Hmm I hope my overclocked kernel won't stand in the way of my phone recognizing when an update is available for it?

I'm in Finland so I'm not even supposed to get it yet, just thinking.

Video Calling was supposed to be enabled according to the Official Changelog found here http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_5/PR1.2#New_Features

Did a reboot and my missing contacts were back.

9. SKYPE Video - works REALLY well on test calls over my internal LAN - at first, video wasn't working at all from my old aptop to n900. Did some tests from laptop to desktop - video ws OK. Decided to upgrade my skype client on the laptop - thereafter, I made a video call where the quality from both n900 and laptop was excellent - as long as I kept n900 front cam fed with good lighting, I got lovely clear, smooth motion on both video feeds. Surpassed my expectations. Don't know whether the skype upgrade on my lappy is significant there (4.2.0.169) - it said it was a major new release (can't remember what my previous skype version as, but I only installed it about 3 months ago, so it should not have been that out of date ...)

that's why, whenever you read something about "video calls", you have to try and find out which kind of video calls it refers to. the person who created/edited the wiki page obviously thougth VoIP video calls could safely be called "video calls" because there's nothing else it could be mistaken for.

How does that constitute any kind of commitment to a particular type of video calling?
that could just as easily be taken to mean "we will announce if you will get it or not later"

Im not a nokia fanboy, i just think people should be realistic about what they expect, and should focus on the many possitives rather than what they perceive to be the few negatives on a new platform.

Early adopters should allways be aware that thats the price of being the first to have a new device/platform, and constructive feedback rather than just whining is what will make changes, ive not yet come accross what i believe to be a shortcoming of the n900 (and there are a few) that the comunity has not been able or will be able to solve.
