I have been following the entire thread... and as far as I can tell there has been NO official word, just speculation and a reference to a vague twitter post (lol..)

yes and that is the best you can get. we can only hope that PR1.2 will be documented to wiki as well as PR1.1 was. only fact for now is that there is a great probability that you wont get any official facts.

e: this probably is similar to pre PR1.1 update

But they are valid speculations because the update itself is 16MB So don't expect much of this update.. But you're right that we need someone like Qgil to help us oit here. O'mighty qgil where are thee?

That's why I was trying to ask nicely that some Nokia employee would please enlighten us on what the update really was :D

It seemed to touch a lot of core packages, I'm just curious is all. I don't want to start any trouble :P

It will appear when it will appear. No use posting "nothing here" -stuff because it just makes this thread really hard to follow.

use twitter for those, please

Thanks for the tip. Guess I'm too eager for newness. Went ahead and dl'ed & installed Nokia Software Updater. It's downloading the entire 171meg OS as I type this. Had to click through some dialog boxes on my laptop indicating "all data will be removed and re-written to memory", "take a backup or you're SOL", and "all music will be wiped from the device" ;-(.

Oh well.

Glad I've got Nokia Multimedia Transfer to sync 25gigs of itunes jams back onto the phone when this is all done.....

so no one has asked nicely before? where would that sudden change of mind become?

that is (unfortunately) a tradition. I am really satisfied that major update was documented really well. rather that than couple lines per every small update.

If you go to the App Manager then you will see that you can download Nokia N900 firmware update 3.2010.02-8.002 which is a minor update that prepares a major update that will bring Qt to the internet tablet. The major N900 update should be release by the end of the February, but you should ask Peter from Maemo for more information.

The N900 PR1.1.1 V3.2010.02.8 comes with updates to the browser, operator wizard, Open GL ES 2.0, Hildon UI, WiFi, flasher, Skype, and the Call UI among others. There is no official changelog at the moment so you should read more at the Maemo.org forums where the community tries to discover what’s new in this update.

this update might have something to do with the ovi store. Just noticed a few paid MMS things in there, and some speedracer episodes. Didnt notice those before.

man i don't think the article author could have chosen a more-misleading picture for that article than that. if i didn't know any better i'd think the update brought a decent navigation upgrade to the device!

it's OFFICIAL here in NYC I have it in my app manager!!!

Re: New firmware? Maemo 5 update 3.2?
 
I think this minor update is the one right before the major update PR 1.2 just like the minor update before PR 1.1 back a month ago.

might be, cause weren't we promised some new apps to ovi store during the barcelona event?

Re: New firmware? Maemo 5 update 3.2?
 
And 5 minutes later, my phone has rebooted to the new OS.

Seems bullet-fast, screen transition are faster, app openings faster. Also, all music was retained, along with Skype and Flickr account settings.

Everything else I'm restoring from a backup taken just before the update, so it looks like all is good in 3.2010 land.

I was just looking at that picture aswell and wondering where it was from. Is that Sygic maps?

Nokia's two-step approach to updating this device cracks me up... Preliminary update to 'set the mood', then a larger update a week or so after :)

eitama 2010-02-16 08:49

Re: New firmware? Maemo 5 update 3.2?
 
Update appeared for me in the application manager, but when I tried to install it, It requested I use the "nokia software updater" application.

And so I did, 157MB download, and about 5 minutes install,
All my settings are gone, wallpapers, openssh server... etc etc.

Re: New firmware? Maemo 5 update 3.2?
 
Ah, we have been successfully distracted from the MeeGo announcement! :-)

Someone had made a bugzilla search to find bugs that were fixed after a specific update. If anyone knows the details of what I'm talking about, sharing them here would mean that the (likely) bugs that are fixed in this update would be much easier to figure out.

That's a misleading picture. That maps app looks like Sygic.
