Re: Do you still use n8x0 in 2015 ? How ?
 

Grand news you gave me Blaze...
You got your n810 back from the brink...
Did you figure it out?
What did you do?
Whether it was a very complicated fix or something as simple as firmware reflashing...
the community and more specifically n8x0 users need to know what the fix is in case a similar situation occurs to them.

I get that you are new here and all...and some stuff may seem confusing to say the least...
but this is standard ...it's what we do here...we have no diagnostic team or corporation (any longer) to fall back on for fixes...how-to's...patches...updates...anything like that...

We.. (that's all of us... fellow members of this community).. are the diagnostic team...
so when a prob occurs..we try to help each other the best we can to find solutions and document it so it can be referenced in the future by those in need. Regardless how simple or complex the fix.
(Personally I love simple fixes to complex problems.
Makes life easier and less tedious. :D)

So please recap in brief what the problem and symptoms were...and what you did that fixed it.

My N810WE is to this day one of the best tool form factors for troubleshooting servers inside data centers, or any other place where I don't feel like trying to hold a laptop while pulling cables out of machines in racks.

Sadly, the Clearwire/Sprint/XOHM WiMAX network is finally about to sing its swan song here in the U.S on November 6th. They did not make it easy to keep using that network with the N810, but it was possible. (Ironically, it was something as simple as trying to get to buttons on a web form that was the largest impediment to using WiMAX in recent years.)

Nokia deserves some credit for taking a chance with a protocol that actually delivered on its promise well before LTE showed up to the party.

I won't belabor the seeming jihad against hardware keyboards that we've seen in handheld device form factors for the past several years, except to say that the build quality of those Nokia devices, while not perfect, could hold its own against anything being sold today.

They are beauties... ain't they?

My daughter uses it for playing music in her room and taking notes. Alas, it's starting to come apart. We have a rubber band wrapped around it to keep the top & bottom halves together. :-)

With a rubber band holding it together even!

I use it daily for podcasts. Haven't found a better app than Gpodder or better pocket speakers.

zigactly.
I 100% agree ..
excellent for podcasts.
In all I have an n800 or n810 on all day and through the night (I have one playing baroque via internet radio to me while I drift off...and it is the 1st thing in the morning whispering lovely calm music to me as I get up.

Hi! I live in Brazil and am using an n810 as an alarm clock and gmail notifier, sitting on my nightstand. Also, i always use Xournal for notetaking and every now and then play Full Throttle on Scummvm.
I used to play internet radio on it almost constantly, but for some reason the online radio database of the stock media player stopped working.
I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to updating and restoring such databases.. it would bring me a lot of joy while I'm at work.
Thanks in advance
