Which phase is the case in? Have they finished the rigorous testing on it?

IM sitting in the car, surfing on n800 through someone's router. Reading this with much joy. I noticed tht Bora dir's are updated, 4th of July. no new files yet.

NO Skype in my repositories? :mad:

I've to get home... i Feel strange sitting in the car surfing, but its fun though.

No. I have nothing whatsoever to do with the OS and software releases.

Just be patient though!

Can someone shed light as to why Nokia doesn't disclose release dates in advance?

zerojay 2007-07-05 00:12

Re: File called Skype UI is in showing in my application manager
 
Because it's impossible to predict when your software is going to be finished.

Re: File called Skype UI is in showing in my application manager
 
Most software companies publish a release date and then modify it as needed. I just get a little tired of the cute game of suggestions as to when it might be out. This forum is a great place for Nokia to officially say what they are working on and what holdups they might encounter. Although I am not a programmer, I love to hear a company that can give you some insight into what they are doing. What could be a better audience for that than a forum like this? Motivated owners of your product that have been known to beta test for you and tend to solve problems on their own. I just wish they would participate more in our conversations here on the forum in a much more official capacity. There is my $.02, for what it is worth. I am certainly looking forward to playing with Skype on my N800.

That is unless y'all setup chinook repos already ?

As I've said elsewhere, I'd be very surprised (and, as a developer, disappointed) if the next firmware was based on Chinook (i.e. Maemo 4.0).

Bora is the codename for all Maemo 3.x releases, which should include the next firmware update.

However, remember Rhapsody was a separate application, but still came along with a firmware upgrade.

Greetings Everyone:


As to put some order to find out when this new firmware will go online.

Can we sound off to know where everyone is from.

This way each of us has a task to check Nokia's websites where we live.

Someone already stated that Nokia's website in Finland would be the first place where the new firmware will show up.

I'm from Montreal, Canada.

The rest of you are from:

Regards Robert

Ok, I pin mapped everyone here to see where everyone is from.


Looks like we have a good turnout from Finland.

2 people from Canada
1 person from Barbados
1 person from Spain
1 person from Italy
1 person from England
1 person from Czech Republic
3 people from Finland

If anyone wants to be added to my Google Map, just state your forum name and which city, country your from.

So, if the firmware comes out of Finland we have enough people there.

Regards Robert

Re: File called Skype UI is in showing in my application manager
 
I have nothing to do with Nokia. Only have their GSM phone and N800. Not everyone at Finland works at Nokia.. Some of us have to look after polar bears too.. :D

But somewere this rumor started that those (software, not polar bears..) should come out today..

I just wonder is it some kind of fact, rumor or someones joke..

Okay but where did you read/ hear that it would come out of Finland?
To me the OS update page is at http://europe.nokia.com/A4305010 . not on the Finnish website.

I still believe it will be out sometime later today. Hold on... :rolleyes:

Just by curiosity, anyone knows what time of the day the previous firmwares were made available?

Right. This is the internet. You don't have to be in Finland to access a site that's in Finland.

Sure, but moreover not exactly. THe finnish website is www.nokia.fi and there indeed there Finnish pages for the N800 inside. BUT if you click on the link "päivitys" (update in Finnish), the European website pops up, so there is no specific Finnish page for the update.

About the Firmware Update. I'm very new to this all, got my n800 the day before yesterday. When flashing the device, I'd have to reinstall everything I did until now? Like Minimo, Idea etc.? Is there a way to backup my extras, except dual boot or something?

And BTW, you're all quite infectious about the update, I may add :)

greets, Gilbert.

greets, Gilbert.

You can back up stuff using the Backup/Restore utility to a memory card, but it won't back up your apps. Just your email, contacts, docs, bookmarks, media, and settings.

But all the names of applications you had in your device wil be saved..... so you they will show up in your application manager.... so you just need to click and install.... that doesnt take much time...

I think I did not undersstand what you are meaning by this... The 3rd paarty apps will be removed and then you have to reinstall them back, period.

When using the builtin back, right? So my application manager will remember my stuff? That's a bit of relief. A little bit ;)
