Re: how to check if my N900 is original?
 

I'm guessing You're responding to my post?

I'm just saying that even IF the hardware is there the software still needs to support it... It's kind of like a great looking hi-tech car with a big engine but without an Engine Management chip... ;)

Think video chat on Maemo 5 when the N900 was launched etc...

It should be on the back of the screen when flipped out... :)

Thanks alot fo this information!
Its helped.

the IMEI code is listed and its doesn't have any second sim slot or so.

I have anyther question:
its has 32GB of memory but when I checked the availble space and total space its sayed that it has only 27 GB of total space
why?

how much total space you have on your n900?

check the size of /home :)

Re: how to check if my N900 is original?
 

Mine says "Total size: 27.22 GB" too, so wouldn't worry about it.

I think what you're looking at is the known phenomenon of "storage space v physical memory" Physical memory, ie chips are listed as 1024 MB = 1 GB. Whereas storage space is listed as 1000 MB = 1 GB.

Which is why Windows etc will always report a hard drive as having less memory than the manufacturer states. Manufacturers sell hard drives in 1000 MB chunks. Windows and other O/Ss report the capacity in 1024 MB chunks.

ok, thanks!

Re: how to check if my N900 is original?
 

To know if it is fake then you have to use the real N900 before you buying an N900. I think this is the most important. If you don't see it in your hands and the seller doesn't guaranteed to refund if anything goes wrong then don't buy it.

Because the risk may be bigger than benefit from buying ungeniune device from eBay.

If your friend got one then your friend can test it out for you :)
Once you're used to an N900 then you can never go back on any other phone.

N900 only got one SIM CARD slot, so if there are 2 then it an indication of FAKE alert.

Unfortunately like for any Nokia phones there are fake N900 out there.

Different UI should be easy to spot after watching 1 minute video of the real deal. ;)

As long as it is dual sim, it is a fake...trust me almost got ripped off on more than one occasion while searching for the n900. Sellers wont admit it's fake but the moment you ask em if its dual sim and they say yes, then it's a guaranteed fake.
