The leaked PR1.2 has a couple of Nokia private components which fix a couple of bugs and which are not possible to create without hard work and access to Nokia source software repository.
SO tell me: How did you know what the PR1.2L package had in it?? Hrmm???


(damnit! I said I was done trying to argue this with people http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/Smil..._face_wall.gif)

I noticed after installing this PR1.2, the Conversation icon in the homescreen is a bit blurred, though the rest is fine.

That would never be a purpose of a moderated thread here. I don't understand why that would even be in question...

Really? That is honestly the atmosphere I am starting to witness which is why I got a little over-zealous about it.

Some people do seem to be implying that it's perfectly 100% the "cool" thing to do to just randomly flash whatever the hell you find ending in a .bin.

Those of us that offer warnings are somehow Jerks, A-holes, or general "mightier than thou" types that are just here to oppress the "people" and their "Freedoms".

Maybe I'm just taking it too far...

If this is a case I am pretty sure that Nokia lawyers are preparing a court papers with billion damages to that person - it is TOO easy to immediately find it. The access to any build which doesn't pass a software build department is pretty restricted. Morever, in many companies to create a full build it requires a replication a lot of resources and that is easy to find.

For example: The build is over a month old right? What do you think he could have been doing to it in that month? ;).

I mean honestly.. if you're a Nokia employee and you want to "get back" at the company, or "support open source!", or whatever misguided ideological philosophy this guy was operating under - wouldn't you release the latest build? Why a month old one? ;)
That is pretty simple - this is a test build or release candidate which was given to a couple of people for intensive field test. The month is required for testing (you didn't work in big software company, I see).

um.. why would someone who "leaked" an internal company build give a damn about waiting a month for "testing?"

They would just release it as soon as they got their hands on it, I would think.

Or are you saying that there is a first phase of internal testing that takes a month, and then they open it to more field testers after that month - and it's these additional field testers that may have leaked it (as soon as they got it as I said above)?


ETA: It doesn't matter. Im not going to argue this. Especially not with you egoshin - I respect you too much for it. If you feel the need to tell people it's perfectly fine to flash whatever random thing they come across - then so be it. I'm done trying to help and warn people that such behavior is typically a very bad idea.

Because it was not the same person who got a testing build.

I hope it is not a case, it could be too cynic.

Key words: purpose and moderated. ;)

EDIT: maybe the thread title should be changed to make that clear though. Or is that too oppressive? :D
