http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php will show the firmware once it's available.


I'm Vodafone UK and entered my IMEI number on http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php and can see the PR1.3 update.
I use the Global version as there doesn't seem to be any reason to wait for the UK version?

Really, this isn't that difficult to understand. Compare this to OS updates/service packs etc. for PCs.

One is like a service pack (you need to have an OS installed, it only upgrades what has changed, you don't loose other applications, is smaller to download).

The other is like a new installation from CD or DVD. You don't need an OS, it replaces everything (except possibly user data ... depending on what PC OS we are comparing it to, but you will need to re-install applications that don't come with the OS), but is a much larger download.

Maybe 1.3 will fix the 1.2 problem that I had :). My Fm-transmitter disappears when I either update to 1.2 from 1.1 OR flash to 1.2 directly. No FM-transmitter for me :(
On 1.1 it works without problem.

Any one faced this error ? Is it ok to un-install libqt4-test using root access with command - apt-get uninstall <pkg> ?

Thanks.

I did that to be able to perform a OTA update and it worked perfectly. I also had to uninstall another lib (I can nor remember) needed by CoudGPS.

It shows pr 1.3 there for me. But when I try to update OTA or with the Nokia Updater or Ovi Suite it tells me there's no update . . . :s

Lol, no one wants to answer this guy's question?

No turn-by-turn ovi maps. This firmware update was mainly for bug fixes. The only thing they added to ovi maps for the N900 was the re-route button.

Ok I found how to manually flash it. But the global version I found is 190MB big and you are saying about 87MB. What is the difference? Is it still the same??

via maemo flasher or via NSU, you loose your personnal data, parameters,... not via OTA

dtergens 2010-10-26 15:47

Re: PR 1.3 is live now! (Released 25 October 2010)
 
190 mb is the full and last maemo 5 OS (by this way, it makes a reset to the phone)

87 mb is the PR.1.3 add contents (in this way via ota/wifi, you will keep all your personnal contents)

sorry for bad english...

There is no PR1.3 for UK yet.

In the past updates, UK version has been delayed by a few weeks/month compared to the rest of the world.

If you don't want to wait, you can reflash with the global image rather than UK. When and if the next update comes, then you'd be able to install OTA since you'd be on global and not UK firmware.

Thanks.

I don't know how the color selection worked in PR 1.2
But I can change the color by selecting an empty color
field (the white boxes) and then adjust the color in the
color pad.

thanks... i will just wait, cant be bothered to do the reflashing. Dont think its worth it for a bug fix update.
