i didnt, phone actually seems snappier as well, so im happy :)

i did use the backup proggie on the n900 to keep all my settings, so id suggest doing the same, and save it to a memory card.... just in case :)

Cheers. :D

What do you do about backup-ing settings, apps, contacts etc? I'm guessing it will remove them all..?

So like is the .documents folder going to be safe? All I'm worried about is music and ROMs, took me a hell of a time to convert/find!

There's an artcile in the wiki about backing up apps and doing manual backups too....

Yeah, I've done it quite a bit. Over 3G all over the UK (Manchester and surrounding areas, Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow and London and most of the south-east). That being said, London sucked most -- too many connections?

Here in Australia I get a better ping on Skype over 3G than regular mobile call when dialing very long distance (Oz to UK/Europe, or Canada/US)

Edit: Please keep the thread roughly on topic. If you need help, create your own thread.

this is actually quite interesting, since VOIP is 'meant' to be unavailable on all UK networks except 3!!
