Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

for those wondering about performance improvements, as I mentioned in the thread for the 1.1 update, as often as not I find everything feels faster everytime I reboot. regardless of update. It just seems that after 4/5 days of heavy usage, things slow a little. and a full reboot makes things snappy again.
I doubt 1.1.1 has done any significant performance work.
(though would love to be found wrong)

here in the UK..still waiting ;-)

Re: Oh, oh! :o
 

Disconnect and restart the device. It worked for me... It wasn't bricked! If it doesn't start, flash with flasher 3.5

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

I beg to differ. I reboot fairly often (say around once per day) and this is something else. Everything feels snappier, me likes

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)d
 

I'm in the UK and no update available yet for me

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

I've disabeled those to free some rootfs but still can't come up to 43. I just think that this is a huge letdown by Maemo for not controlling this better.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

the firmware updated doesn't help on battery life at all.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

No update for UK, these are the updates available so far.

Re: New firmware? Maemo 5 update 3.2?
 

No, not an easy way, but it is possible, and software could certainly be written to sort this out with the existing infrastructure. Long story short: For Maemo, go to the Packages file for the repository of interest. For example, the "/extras-devel Fremantle free" Packages file for the n900 can be found at:

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

not really. you can still use the nokia updater via a pc with less :D

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Try restarting your device, or better, read previous posts.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

I'm fairly sure I used to get this feature when I was using my T-mobile sim in my phone, finally switchewd over to the vodafone sim that I actually got with my phone at the weekend and don't seem to get the same notification. What network are you with currently? Has anybody else out there noticed this?

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

I'm having some problems with hildon freezing every now and then, and then just suddently crashes, I reboot and find that all desktop widgets/contacts etc. is gone. I add them again and same thing happens over again..

Anybody else experienced this or something similar? :/

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Just do in xterminal as root:

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

A few people mentioned battery is worse. Perhaps they were playing with the device more after update. Any common consensus on this?

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Using Nokia Updater will wipe all applications and likely their settings, make sure you backup your installed appliation list.

I tried to do OTA (USA), but it said this firmware version I must use Nokia Updater on PC and I used that. I just finished re-install all applications but
I lost all my 3 STARS score in Angry Brids :mad:

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

This is ridiculous. I've disabled all catalogs but for Nokia Applications and Nokia System Software Updates, uninstalled 14 apps, rebooted several times, run apt-get clean several times, gone from 43.5Mb in rootfs to 54.5Mb and I'm still getting this message:

"To update your device to this version of the operating system you must use the Nokia software update application on your PC. Connect the device to your PC via a USB cable and launch the application."

There's been no message about not having enough space.

I guess it's time to trash more apps. Thing is, some of them were a b*tch to install and get working properly (Debian w/Cups, etc.) for me (noob). This is my main reason for not wanting to go the NSU route.

Any advice appreciated. I'm tired of spending so much time on this. I know the risks about installing from the Extras catalog, blah, blah. Frustrated.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Just updated with NSU and everything went fine but all my applications are gone. This is something expected though. The phone feels faster. Let´s see how it behaves after a couple of hours.

Could anyone direct me on how to enable flash on the browser please. When I go to a site with flash I get this message saying JavaScript is disabled or Flash not installed.

Thank you.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

it also wants a decent battery charge.... sometimes fails because of low charge.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Oh and just on a slight side note concerning freeing up space on the device. Is it ok to uninstall the "installer" apps once they have been used and the actual apps are up and running or should we keep them on there?

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

uninstalled all of mine with no probs.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

i mentioned it before too. Battery life has improved, based purely on observation and comparing with how much charge i was getting earlier. does the battery has wifi drain bug still? no idea, it will be checked later tonight at idle. I will have an answer tomorrow morning.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

You can uninstall those installers.
and you will see those installers in the catalog after you uninstalled them
there is no point to use those installers as you can install the apps of those installers try to install directly

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Also having trouble with FM transmitter

Would be great to know if im the only one with these problems

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Anyone have problems with phone not seeing any files in the in picture viewer/ music player, but being bale to find them in file manager after NSU update?

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

It is definetly faster overall, but battery life? I don`t know....it seems a little worse than before....I haven`t used it more than before so there might be something here.....

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

fm transmitter is fine, nothing wrong with it

Suitable USB device not found, waiting. :confused:

Re: Oh, oh! :o
 

It doesnt even boot :o .. Won't be the evening i planned!

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Anyone who has a changelog on this update?

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Changelog

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

The update is really annoying, I tried to restore my backup which I made before cause it deleted all applications and stuff. Now it says "process failed" when I want to restore something oO

Really think twice if you want to install it. I guess I have to reset the phone now :/

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

No problem with mine..

Re: Oh, oh! :o
 

This Maemo Update seems to be a big fail when I see all this "my phone isn't working anymore afterwards" threads. I personally had more luck but lost all my applications and files after the update!

Seriously, Maemo is Linux based and at least on my PC Linux updates work perfectly without making so much trouble.

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Nokia updater doesn't reconize my n900... it is plugged and the program still searching. Maemo Linux sucks connecting to nokia PC suite even... some options won't work...

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

One thing that I like about the new firmware, is the fixed on the wifi draining battery, so I have updated mine using wifi. So far so good :-).

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

Download the new PC Suite and make sure you are updating to the latest version.

I am using 7.1.30.9 and my N900 is recognized and I am able to do tethering with it without any hassle

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)
 

I wish it supports synchronization of Photos and Videos though, which it doesn't, and I'm using 7.1.40.1
