Well, half the pages ago you said you don't trust 'other software' aka software that isn't branded by Nokia, now suddenly you have hope on Opensource?

It's called Stockholm syndrome. The more opensource tortures you the more you put hope on it. You need help.

Re: make a list of all the issues u have with ur n900
 

Oh hey look, yet another person has decided to attack people who don't like closed source software.

It's obvious that you're mistaking this forum for the Apple forums. Also, this and several other posts should be removed, if this topic is to remain relevant.

open source is good
thing is..
open source might take ages to do what nokia can do in jus some lil time.. *resource/profession/number of peeps participating/ past experience factor*
how long did it take for one missing feature for open source to perfect?

i jus had a mini fight over this with one of the admins
i suppose we jus gotta live with it

Sorry to make you feel uneasy, but obviously you haven't read my replies all along this thread. This is a long thread I can understand.

Re: make a list of all the issues u have with ur n900
 

Actually my company makes embedded devices and I tell you that there's a huge difference between something just works and something that never works. Most Opensource projects is the former, and most close source projects is latter.

Nokia should not take over the entire opensource development on Maemo or Meego or whatsoever, actually this is the very last thing we'd like to see as third party developers. The path would only lead to OSX or Android, which I can skip the ranting on.

look look
i made this thread to keep things to the point
not to be called a troll or off topic insults
otherwise this is just another thread with 900+ irrelevant posts
we all good here?

Re: make a list of all the issues u have with ur n900
 

No you did troll...at least I personally don't think you're a troll.

However, I'm not sure I should stick to the topic of the OC raised, as you can see (or you've the patient to read from the beginning), that I've already answered to OC, make on-topic discussions all the way, and concluded long long time ago. The replies I gave today are just to answer to your questions. Nothing more.

In retrospective, you shouldn't have dug such an old post that the original topic is already very outdated and irreverent (pre-PR1.2 problems). If you want people to stick to the topic, make your own post.

no one, lazy or otherwise, has enough time to read through 900+ posts
and oh, lol at make ur own post
thats what i got called a troll for

Re: make a list of all the issues u have with ur n900
 

I see! Then I think the mod believed that your list is similar to the OC raised.

Let see....

Yes they are.

Here is my answer that I hope can help:


1) mycontacts

2) try set the ISO to anything other than auto, and choose a mode like landscape or portrait other than auto, and remember to half-press the camera button to focus first (not applicable to landscape mode)

3) what's that?

4) ukeyboard?


5) delay of the flash 10 is hardly Nokia's problem or community's fault. Adobe is sole responsible for it. Don't worry, HTML5 is way up ahead to replace flash. If Adobe do not value their business, just leave flash 10 out of N900, we care less.

6) speaker problem might be hardware-wise, I'm sorry to tell you that. Try pressing the spot to the right of the phone speaker to see if you get better reception, if you do, then I'm sorry to tell you that you might get someone to fix it as it's the exact location of the phone speaker is.

The auto-off during phone calling is annoying yes. Something has a fix of it but I forgot where it is, you should look for yourself.

7) Why, there is. Ask google.


8) I think someone else has suggested...fast app manager. I use console mode apt-get anyway


9) you can type sync;sync in xterminal before shutdown your phone. It's a Linux nevertheless

10) Yes, look for Nokia map loader
is this a hardware limitation? -> your SD space

11) Yes it can be done. Again you should look for it yourself. I got only so much time in my life for my own problems ya know XD

12) that's not the real internet customization, it's just access right restriction on java application. You should look at the Java on N900 for more details. No, N900 is not made for running java application by default so you must do it the hard way.

13) I can only say N900 would be the first phone that enable USB host-mode in the future given its openness. Other phone would just say no to you


14) in my opinion multi-touch is the most useless function, especially when you've keyboard. Anyway, if you need that multi-touch badly, all resistive touchscreen phones are not for you (anyway I've been told there's a project for N900 multi-touch. Look for yourself)

15) It's laggy because the process run on true multi-tasking. This is something I can live with for that nice multi-tasking.

16) Mediabox


17) Just go to configure and stop it from flippy. You should really read the menu (well, honestly I didn't XD)

18) well, how would that be the problem of opensource projects?

19) Mediabox, symfonie...etc.

20) There's solutions. Just look for yourself please.


21) I don't want portrait SMS, but it can be done(look for yurself) and you can go portrait mode with photo browser. Do you really use N900 anyway?

22) extended calllog, and many other applications others has suggested above.

23) I don't feel the stutter.....what other apps you run on background anyway?

24) What other phone not jerky in this case?

25) Just tap in the middle


26) symfonie...but anyway, you'd find that having a equalizer is quite useless. Try it you'd understand.

27) it has powesaving mode: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=49982


Phew.

Hope this help.
