51.1 Available or not??
 

App Manager tells me that 51.1 is available but that it can only be installed via NSU. NSU tells me that 44.1 is the latest version.


What?? :mad:

I needed to have 60MB of free space in the rootfs for the OTA update to work.

It was still prompting me to update over USB using NSU when I had 58.9MB of free space in the rootfs, so it's very important that you cross that magical 60MB of free space threshold.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

Yay! They was already disabled, but after removal of libqt4-phonon, now its updating! Thanks a lot.

PS: So, DO NOT install Tickstill -or some app like that, which counts down/up- from Ovi Store if you want to get OTA. It uses phonon package.

To cddiede: I'm upgrading now with 49 megabytes free. So I dont think 60megs necessary.

Re: 51.1 Available or not??

im still weary about installing the new update until someone can assure me that it is safe and as to why the previous update hanged on people, an from what im reading some ppl are still having issues installing this firmware but nothing similar to the previous 1 where it just hanged at the last second!

Only 1 person replied and suggested to read all the threads but theres like 70 pages here already, thats a lot of reading to do! If u know the answer then just why not help me out by telling me?

:(

HELLO PPL! RELAX ITS NOTHING NEW, UR FONE ISNT GONNA BE ANY DIFFERENT THE UPDATE".

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I'm running PR1.1. I used WLAN to upgrade. No problems.

The browser is lightning fast now. Portrait mode in the browser is automatic based on phone orientation (with keyboard closed).

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

Thanks, that did it! I was already preparing to try that cache moving thing, but this fixed it.

How do I find the free space on rootfs?

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I think you mean "leery".

Most people have had no difficulties what so ever with either recent update. Most. Obviously, some people have experienced trouble.

Neither I nor anyone else can guarantee you'll have a trouble-free upgrade experience. Unless your N900's rootfs is overly full or contains packages with dependencies that conflict with the upgrade, your odds of success are good. However, there's always a chance something could go wrong. Cosmic rays and all that.

Make a backup to MicroSD before trying the update. If all goes wrong, you'll reflash, restore your backup, and continue on.

Help with 1.1 Update
 

Hi all,

I've been having trouble updating to 1.1.

Current status: I have version 1.2009.44-1 installed. It installed fine over the air.

When i try to update to the new version (going to app-manager -> update) i get the 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 usb cable and launch the application."

I've already searched the forum, and indeed i had ioquake installed which i've already removed and also prboom.

I did not have libqt4-phonon installed.
I've also deactivated extras-testing

did

apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean
apt-get install -f

and tried to install using

apt-get upgrade: It says the new packaged are not going to be installed and nothing more.

apt-get dist-upgarde it says i do not have enough space in /var/cache/apt/archives. although my rootfs is at 74%

Also I don't which nokia software they are talking about, since I didn't get any with my phone nor references to it, also I don't have windows installed, where can i get that software ?


Any clues ? thanks in advance !

Hello guys,

I am trying to update my N900 with new firmware, but it stuck on
"Downloading 89,5 MB". I tried few times, but whitout luck.

Please give me advice what to do.
Should I try to update via NSU? Last time I used it N900 bricked and now I am a little afraid to use it again....

Thank you in advance.
Regards.

Wow 39.2M free. Guess I can see where my problem is!

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

How come it doesn't update uname -a or hostname??

Bluetooth Audio still choppy as before. Looks like it wasn't addressed.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I found out about the update at 8am EST...I read the first 5 pages of this thread before running the update via the application manager. I've since read every post in this thread.

If you are having problems with your 900, or fear that you will, just type in your specific topic of your concern in the search field. If you are reading about specific problems, were there not solutions posted? Again, if you don't see the solutions, try searching. Many have already been addressed.

As with many others, I have had no problems with either of the (2) updates, installed via the Application Manager. I still say that the 1st update was released at least 1-2 weeks ago.

cant use potrait browser. pressing ctrl+ shift and turn the phone?

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

ctrl + shift + o

...don't forget to close the keyboard, then turn phone, with an open browser, or the bookmark page.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

closing the keyboard to get portraitmode in the browser is essential!

when you have the keyboard out, it will not work.
even if its already in portraitmode and you get the keyboard out, it will jump pack to landscape mode.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I totally agree with you, Lazarpandar! The N900 now finally feels like a polished, ready for public product. Now we can only hope for OviMaps 3 (hell, "lesser" phones have this installed), MMS support (sorry but 100% of my family/friends use MMS and only about 30% get e-mail on their phone. It is nice quickly snapping a picture and sending it to all of my family), and portrait mode throughout the N900.

That's just me.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

yay! my phone is already updated. i used the troubleshoot compatibility on windows 7 and it used the xp setting. my next problem is everything got wiped out and i need to download gazillion apps again. i hope i can still find the setting to access the devel apps....

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

did anyone get a second update with this release? I got the pr1.0.1 a few days ago but today I had 2 updates in total is this right. The first I ran was 2.2009.51-1.203.1 this installed with ease and when turning the phone off then on again it it gave me a "do not interrupt, installing % complete" I turned the phone on and got a second update that was 2.2009.51-1.2003.2. This auto installed and rebooted my phone I then had a status bar under the nokia logo upon boot then the phone booted fine.

Did anyone else have this or is it just me?

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I had the same thing happen. I suspect that's par for the course.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

Where the bloody hell are the guys who released this bug ridden update we are all experiencing the same issue and not a single word from them. i am not pleased

MFE problems on Maemo 5 PR1.1
 

After updating to PR1.1 I was excited to see that MFE is working. But there is a problem.
Email messages that are "Accept responses" to meeting invitation that you sent then those email message are received again and again. Each time your email is synchronised. Plus there is no information in the "recipient"

Looks like MFE implementation was not fully tested......
Frustrating.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

Just updated - doesn't seem like my phone got any faster :-/

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

I have installed the update and all is working great.

One little thing though: the connections tab keeps popping up asking to connect to one of the local WLAN or GRPS networks, such as when I open the keyboard.

Does this happen for anyone else?

Re: PR1.1 in App Manager but wont install??
 

See http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=673 for some suggestions on getting the OTA update to work.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

finaly with help of my old and trusty Win XP and flasher 3.5 I succeed to update me N900.
Everything seem to be OK.

I do not understand - Win 7 cannot recognize N900 when try to update it... Does anyone face same problem?

Regards.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.1 released today (January 14)
 

No, Media Player on my N900 still has it. And I still hate it.

EDIT: I thought the question was about the Media Player application, not the widget. Sorry.

I'm really happy with this upate - scrolling has improved dramatically and I am finding the whole system more responsive and smooth... I had to uninstall almost all my applications before it would let me do the update OTA, but restoring from a backup, after the update, automatically reinstalled these for me. Very pleased,
