Re: how to check if my N900 is original?

thanks for the info!
My phone seems to be original, it has 800x480 res, one sim slot
IMEI number appears on nokia site, and its made in Korea.

Does the battery made in China?

my front camera displays green pictures
I used the Mirror application and HealthCheck and they both show pictures that has too much green color
does your phone shows this too or its just my phone?

Can I add a 32GB microSD and will it work well with the mobile?

how to add the 'More' icon on the menu screen to hide the additional apps and see only the preinstalled apps?

Re: how to check if my N900 is original?

pull the cable out of the usb port after charging. if the port stays intact, it's a fake. if it breaks, it's a genuine nokia.

Whoa, Whoa buddy, slow down. Now that you have your n900 verified as original, maybe you should devote some time to searching the threads for the answers to all those new questions....

I don't think the fake N900s are able to run Maemo apps..

If you want to create folders you could use this prog called appmefo (Applications Menu Folders), or if you want to have the progs be automaticly put in folders based on their categories (like on the HAM) use Catorise

I dunno about the card thing though

Ok, thanks for help.

Re: how to check if my N900 is original?

hehe,, healthcheck just captures one image from gstreamer tools. not the greatest way, but just quick and dirty.

it takes about 50 frames for the green to vanish normally, so skype etc use it properly!!

erm, i went test Skype video again, and it got greenish vignetting :(
