I've removed everything in /home/user/.mozilla/microb after encountering the problem, why should I need to flash the eMMC?
Finally managed to get Firefox installed again, so at least happy with that.

You need to do a restore from the backup app so unless you never did a backup in the first place then thats the only way you will have all your previous apps.

I got you alright ... :)

For me, it looks like Im gonna stick with 1.2 and see what the future brings, I learn for examinations, maybe the bugs get solved after that ... :)

Catorise works fine for me, but I have to stay away from devel, it ruins my device a lot ... (had to reflash today afternoon) ... Messy ... :D

Auto capitalisation text boxes no longer allow me to press shift to get a lower case first character, I have to press any key first then go back and delete, sucks for password boxes and touchsearch (using the case-sensitive site: prefix).

Anyone else experiencing this?

I'll see your extra-devel not working at raise you an everything but ovi not working. Was working fine briefly, then getting errors resolving urls and now i'm stuck with just ovi.

Think I might try reflashing...

I noticed this too... Pretty annoying but i just write an extra letter in front and delete it afterwards... ;)

Like instead for writing lowercase I write Llowercase and delete the L.

I can refresh Extras-devel, but afterwards Im unable to install some apps, (eg. Extra protocol plugins for conversations and contacts) ...

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I can confirm that I have the same issue as Michal Urban with IM (skype and Y!) contacts not showing in the conversation window when I go to new IM.

Also, the conversation widget doesn't work for me.

As a side note, any idea what the new virtual keyboard should bring over and above the old one? I'm struggling to see much improvement.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
With PR 1.1, I used to use a script from Thomas Tanner, moving many files from root outside the rootfs to make some place ...

Code:

#!/bin/sh
# N900 script to safely free space on rootfs
# (c) 2010 by Thomas Tanner <tanner@maemory.com>
# licensed under GPLv3

# move root stuff to /home
dirs="usr/share/icons usr/share/nokia-maps usr/share/themes usr/share/fonts usr/share/locale usr/lib/locale var/lib/apt"
#optional: var/lib/dpkg
if test -d /home/var/cache/apt; then
  # keep existing apt cache
  rm -rf /var/cache/apt
  ln -s /home/var/cache/apt /var/cache/apt
else
  dirs="$dirs var/cache/apt"
fi
(cd / && du -sc $dirs)
for d in $dirs; do
    test -L /$d && continue
    echo moving /$d
    rm -rf /home/$d
    mkdir -p /home/$d
    cp -a /$d /home/$d/..
    rm -rf /$d
    ln -s /home/$d /$d
done

Is it still safe to use this, with 1.2?

You can drag your finger to change letters which is quite nice and I find it much easier to type.

I'll create a bug report for the upper case typing thing at some point, no hurry though, got months before the possiblity it might be fixed in a new update...

Either the App Manager says something like "unable to install" - while before installation it says OK - or, when using apt-get, it ends with some problems with configuring during installation (some stuff with --configure) ... Sorry I cant say more, but I dont remember anymore and dont want to get again into this deep s**t ... :)

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I have just noticed another problem - even though I backed up before I installed pr1.2 (via flasher 3.5 - i'm on vodafone), when I restored the backup, none of the apps I downloaded from the ovi store were restored (i.e angry birds, spbrainevolution etc)

Anyone else noticed this?

EDIT: Upon closer inspection, this appears to be an issue with catorise not putting things in the ovi menu, but the apps do appear in the ALL menu.

LaptopU 2010-05-25 21:35

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I also have the bug with Haze IM contacts not appearing in the IM list, but IM contacts are still visible in the contacts book.

I never bothered having a shortcut to my contacts before as I used to access them through either the phone menu or new SMS menu, so I decided I need to add a shortcut to my contacts whilst the bug is sorted. I had a problem adding a new shortcut to my desktop, after I added it and pressed 'done' the screen was still in its adjustment mode. The icons could be clicked as if the screen was not in adjustment mode, and clicking on the top bar of the screen which was blank brought up the N900's menu which would normally be brought up pressing around the signal/taskbar area on a normal screen. Rebooting got me out of this mode, but then adjusting it got me back in again, third time lucky for me when adjusting this.

email is still screwed up, used to be that o2mail always refreshed fine, but ovimail would never auto refresh, now its the other way round!
infact my o2mail has been refreshing for 2hours now and its still going!
music player widget works much better now tho, and no more sound skipping when using other apps (multitasking)

edit:
fixed email problem by deleting both accounts and re adding them and using ovimail and o2 as the usernames,

I've noticed this in Qt-based apps; in particular TweeGo and I assumed it was a Qt bug. It probably was (and could still be - I'm on PR1.1.1 'til tomorrow) but if it's extended to all other (GTK?) textboxes it will be quite aggravating.

yeah about as useful as Nokia contributing to the deterioration of my wealth, I handed over several hundred pounds for this less than beta-quality crap, now nokia have officially castrated it, its resale value plummets, what do you want me to say ???

"Besides who the hell still runs Exchange 2003"

*alot* of shops still run exchange 2003

"For that matter who would want to run exchange at all" -

millions do....but, yeah some of our shops run scalix on centos 5.4, but hey the N900 cant even sync or do f**k all with a linux desktop***, nevermind syncing with a linux groupware server ? Zimbra......nah doesnt do it either...damn this brick syncs with damn all......but wait its an open platform....surely it supports SyncML ??? like f***k it does. Just wish I had read nokia's small print regarding exchange syncing,

Maybe *you* can make a *real* contribution and tell me how to sync my N900 with eGroupware/Scalix or Zimbra.......I eagerly await your response. (and please DONT make yourself look stupid and suggest IMAP)

*** not strictly true, it can act as a £500 usb pen drive

I only wanted one thing - volume buttons to work when the keys are locked. 4 months and they can't even get that right. Only works with the nokia media player - not Pannuci or KPlayer.

Oh - and the play button on the media widget is a little better but it's still pot luck as to whether it works on it.

I still have the bug "media format not supported for video file".
I can reproduce it when I jump around in the progress bar of the movie. The movie is 1,4 GB, 800x480, 1500kps, xvid, 24fps, 128 kbps mp3 audio.

Bug No 6823 https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6823 is not fixed I say.
