Re: Nokia N900 PR1.2 Officially Released Today

Hi,
can somebody explain a new N900 user what files to download - the OS2009 or PR.1.2. files? what's the difference? my current version is the global version 8.xxxxx

sorry: not 8.xx it's 3.2010.....

Re: Nokia N900 PR1.2 Officially Released Today

Just flashed mine, seems pretty solid so far.

I'm rather enjoying looking at the web in portrait view, feels like somewhat of a novelty.

Re: PR 1.2 is OUT In UK!!

I'm in the UK but have global firmware... Will I have to wait until tomorrow do you think? Or should I keep hitting update every 5 mins...?!

I got mind at citicall and the guys there are nice since I got my bricked N900 returned anew (they wouldn't be so nice if they knew the reason of bricking...well anyway).

I overclocked it....and that's pretty much the only interesting thing I've been doing since. The others are just as usual, like running apps and games and develop stuffs on it. XD

The eMMC is the internal flash mapped under your home (/home/user/MyDocs), and it's the visible drive (N900) when you use your phone as mass storage device via USB. The contacts and stuffs are saved in this flash drive. Therefore if you reflash the eMMC your phone will return to default.

I'd recommend you to reflash the eMMC as it's a new format. Upstairs there're people confirmed that the new week 19 rom runs fine without reflashing eMMC, anyway, your preference.

Of course, you must backup your eMMC before reflashing it, but I'm sure you wouldn't need to be told of this. ^^

I'd just wait for the orange exclamation mark to appear on the desktop. Save you wasting time and battery power!

Re: Nokia N900 PR1.2 Officially Released Today

It's wierd when I check updates in OTA it says there is one and I should use NSU, but then when I plug into NSU it says there is no update?

What is going on here?
