Because everything is restored to factory and if you did a backup to your pc or memory card they should come back, but this is normal to lose history .

There is no way this update will brick a N900 because its an OFFICIAL Nokia update albeit released in an UNofficial way so everyone can be rest assured flashing with the new update will NOT brick your N900 as long as you follow the easy instructions on this page....

IT WORKS 100%.

After weeks, they still have no single information and some even go till the extend to email Nokia in other countries, just to get disappointed that the reply was "No plans for APAC countries".

Those who bought grey imports, went to official local Nokia stores, imagine the shame on Nokia local shops when other customers saw it and ask "You guys were official and authorised Nokia stores, yet you don't carry a model which non-authorised/official store are selling". They don't even have any single information despite paying the royalty and so on for being authorised dealer and so on.

In the end, don't know how suddenly there was announcement that it will be launched in our country in late March. The announcement was made about 1 month to it's official launching.

As for this PR1.2, everyone was left guessing and treat like dummies to wait weeks by weeks, it's over 1 month since the SDK? Then suddenly,there is information about HK launching with PR1.2 while nobody know anything about it before. And now suddenly, there was a "leaked" version? Seems like the underground works better than being official or supporting/loyal and waiting patiently.

Just me rambling... disappointment at how things are done. N900 is a great device but it still needs a lot of improvements. Having to face with some of it's limitation everyday and knowing there was a fix for it since late February is a pain. They should've release multiple updates if they can't handle a major update properly. Perhaps they were too busy with MeeGo and Symbian^3. Previously I also read there was major updates for 5800 and recently the X6... N900 feels like it was left out in the cold.

There's a reason it isn't out officially. I hope I'm wrong and its stable. but I don't think Nokia is stupid.

Weird.

The 2009.42 release is around 160MB
The 2010.02 release is 170 MB.
But suddenly this 2010.12 (PR 1.2) release is only 120 MB.

If the N900 wasn't planned for release in your country then that isn't the local Nokia store's fault.

I dont know why Nokia have not released this update i have no explanation but i CAN assure you it is stable, please believe me after flashing my own N900 and for your info i am an engineer.
You will lose nothing by flashing even when the OTA update comes out as you can do that one too.
Please read the thread and everyone who has updated is more than happy .

Re: PR1.2 is RELEASED!! - With VideoCall Skype

Don't know about you guys and galls but since I still differentiate between my computer-computer and phone-computer I have been waiting for a native version of Skype with Video on a mobile phone for year.

It has finally arrived! The face of telecommunication is about to change forever: "You are working late again?" Yes honey I got this project... " "I hear you breathing heavily, have you been running? Why do you not turn on video? I miss you so much and the children too" :)

The Skype videocall IS working:

I have tested with OSX Leopard and latest Skype version but the Video from the phone did not show on the computer.
However on Windows 7 with latest Skype version the video works 2 ways.
Tested over local Wifi and 3G. Acceptable video quality from desktop Skype to phone.

Lousy video from phone to computer. Early 90's video quality.

But we are on the right track.

Noticed the Camera starts up with a question if you wish to use geo-tagging.
Tried it and the satelite lock took only 5 seconds. Photo gets tagged with the location. Neat!!! :D
