hving it ?

2. If email widget doesnt display nokia messaging accounts whts the point of hvint that?.

Their sole purpose of being there is flawed. Such things shouldnt be missed !

And i always prefer to install something when its tested. I hv never even installed single app from testing devel...but nokia on their sites asked (recomended )everyone to install this ..so this is nt wht i expected

u know ive been very critical of widgets not working properly but besides that, everything works like a charm like it should.

Conversations app do show online contacts when u press new IM. OTA update as always seems to work flawlessly and flashing ends up causing problems for a few.

lets switch view: what apps have you installed?

and it is easy to say that "this bug is so obivous and still it is missed" but think about number of users internal testing vs release to the public. and many of those bugs seems to be a cause for programs not written by nokia (or it is at least the most logical explanation)

boss email widget is not able to show nokia messaging accounts...that is i am sure since there is already a bug filed for tht.

hey guys got a big prob here. first I installed the indian version, but due to skype limitation I had to flash it with USA version, but suddenly I found that the web browser settings are not showing. the web browser drop down menu only shows -- import, open, move, delete. (previously I was using the leaked pr1.2 n that had all the settings of the browser, but no luck this time, so I again flashed the leaked one to my n900 and i am still not able to see any settings button in the browser menu.)

PLZ help me out.

one more thing guys, after installing the official pr1.2 my n900 has stopped detecting the original headphones that came with n900, out of the box.

right now Using: Leaked PR1.2

I know it's not the network: I can send and receive e-mails just fine, and when I put the sim card in another phone I can connect to the internet without a problem. The only browser that will currently connect to the internet on my N900 is Chromium.

Are you using browser switchboard?

fyi, i installed PR1.2 by flashing both the eMMC and the firmware.

nope, extended call log works nicely, no probs

Hi does anyone experience laggy/choppy video playback with pr1.2? I have a bunch of videos encoded especially for the N900. In PR1.1.1 they worked nice and smooth, but with PR1.2 it gets choppy every once in a while (especially with high-motion scenes). I'm pretty sure the same scenes/videos played just fine with the old firmware.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I have a problem it is something eating my battery. Conky shows when started 600Mhz and 3% load and then switch to 250Mhz and 25-26% load. Before 1.2 update Conky showed 250Mhz and 3% load. I have installed a few apps after OTA to PR1.2. Namely: Brightness app, Catorice, Recaller, Birthday and then something I have not installed. “feedservice2” daemon for feed service plugins. According to the description it “....performs heavy processing........”.

I don't have a clue but before I start uninstalling the newly installed apps I wonder if anybody know what the processor eating ting is. Any idea I need help on this.

I found the solution for me. I deleted the "browser-switch", and nor MicroB works again :)

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
Has anyone else experienced this bug:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=682137 ?

If you have send the last skype IM from anything else than the device (while of course logged in from it) and you try to view the conversation it appears as a chat with yourself and when you select it a "Chat room creation failed" message comes up.

Things go back to normal if you receive another IM.

Could people check if this is a general problem or it applies only to certain variant or upgrade method?

Search button is your friend. Hard reset is accomplished by pulling the battery after shutting it down.

Please check whether there is another entry for the extra repository present. For some reason I had two: one with distribution "fremantle-1.2" (which is the right to use with 1.2, not "fremantle" only) and one without the distribution. The one without will basically be ignored by the app manager.

I have videos encoded over the max specs of N900 that only play off the internal memory to get that extra shine and under 1.2 they play like butter in the sun. Silk.

Also, media player feels generally faster, especially listing 80 videos and the 150 songs I have (70 of the vids are insane quality).

Wait did you just say IMAP ?????????????? (sighs)

I know... sad but that's the default configuration when you create a new email account with gmail using the email setup wizzard. I use MfE for corporate mail and that works much better with calendar and email sync.

You know an alternate setup using gmail account?

Contrary to your experience, I find the wifi setup is much more reliable with PR1.2. I use both WPA preshared key and enterprise EAP, both with maximum power saving and 100mW. Check the advance setting in the connection settings to see if you had reduced the power level to 10mW, that may be the cause of your problem.

Hold down the power button for over 8 sec will do a hard power down. You can then power the phone as usual.

"i see iphoneies come in for repair ALL THE TIME because of different bugs or various issues."

Well considering what (quick scan on google) 40million+ iphones have been sold (f**K thats more sales than the c64 !!!) to what 150k N900's what is you are actually saying ???

maybe it cos they are popular do you think ?

I have *never* had a single crash on my iphone since i bought it 5 months ago, and it is used HEAVILY 7 days a week.

Run "top" in terminal, or install and run "htop", it will show you what is chewing the CPU in the background. The feedservice2 replaces feedservice for RSS feed reader, it doesn't use much CPU and hardly active at all.

Note that right after the update, it may regenerate tracker cache (just guessing here) and if you have a lot of picture, music and movie files then that may be the cause also. Wait a bit to see if the load comes down, I'd say wait for an hour and then shutdown and power up your phone.

As for the widget customization, when you move widgets on your desktop, they don't stay? I just installed a twitter widget and i've been moving it around

Take the status bar and select the "Availability" and check if you have logged in and make have your yahoo status online. Then open the Contacts application and scroll through the contact in which has the yahoo im setup. Only contact with yahoo email/im setup will show up with option to chat, and they are the only ones that will show up when you use the New IM in Conversation.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
my only problem with pr.1.2 is extra dev update is not responding. I have to disable it for now.

re-install the extra dev didnt help.

other small problem were

1. Time zone out of sync. It went with wrong time zone. Didn't notice it until I missed my appointment. :( Time shows correctly after update, but alarm came up few hours late because appointment entry was saved in original time zone.

2. All of my Angry Birds score were gone including the extra level.

They stay normally, but the issue is when you try to validate changes, when you tape on "done" nothing happens, you've to tape on the up left corner twice then on the upright corner to make it work. i'll try to reproduced by the night with a video demo.

Oh. I didn't know it could backup to SD card. I have none so I never bothered. I'm pretty sure other people backup to SD card so there's should be a workaround
