it doesnt detect my device through bluetooth when trying to sync...

its weird, it detects my friends phone, but not my n900
and its not a faulty n900, coz i tried sending pictures back and forth between the two phones and it works fine, but when trying to sync it doesnt pick up my n900

Re: N9 owners: answer questions & get help!

can office docs (.docx, .pptx etc) and pdfs be opened on n9? if yes, how about editing the files?

Re: N9 owners: answer questions & get help!

Does anybody know how to reinstall the default applications back?
I uninstalled accuweather and I would like to get it back. :/

I'm very happy about it especially for the sound quality and the ability to initiate the connection to the voip account by simply selecting from the contacts to call someone using sip.

The phone becomes a little hot after 20 minutes but temperature remained constant for the next hour of the call. I think for the future long calls I will use a handsfree. :)

You have the option to setup more than one accounts but I haven't tried that,

HIH

I had huge problems with SIP (connecting to my own asterisk server) on N900. After a few minutes of usage the call would become choppy. Hope this is resolved in N9. BTW is there any option for 'Wifi Power Saving' in N9?

Download the .deb file here: http://projects.developer.nokia.com/...wiki/Downloads

But before, you must activate the setting for installation of third-party sources in the settings->programs->other sources.

Ok stupid question.

You can close app by swiping down, right? For some reason i'm not able to do it. Do you need to enable it first from somewhere?

You can also install an application called SwipeManager, which allows you to choose what a left/right/down/up swipe does (which screen to go to/close app).

also, does skype chat when you log on try sync the conversations you've had on your desktop? i've had lots of problems with having large txt conversations over skype on my pc over a few days and then logging on with my n900 and have it hang the conversation app and lag the phone and spam me with the messages. please tell me the n9 doesn't have this.

will test things in the first paragraph on the weekend if i remember to... but first i need my carrier

as for skype syncing, Mine did not sync any conversations. However if you are online on your phone while chatting on the computer, the messages will go through to the n9 as well.. so basically the n9 will see messages from when it's online only.

Re: N9 owners: answer questions & get help!

how much of a problem is the lack of support for infrastructure mode in wifi tethering on the N9?

do windows laptops generally support ad-hoc mode?
do linux laptops generally support ad-hoc mode?
which tablets support ad-hoc mode (apparently the touchpad doesn't)?

regards

Re: N9 owners: answer questions & get help!

well.. ad-hoc is what joikuspot used (although I'll check n9 app in now for you), and i connected my laptop with that. I would say most wifi devices supported ad hoc.

EDIT: just tried on windows 7, works fine, almost certain linux supports it too (I may boot in later if no one confirms)

apparently the touchpad doesn't support ad-hoc mode, and i hear a lot of noise about andoid devices not supporting it either...........
