2. From what I understand, MfE is ok to sync for first time, but not subsquence. I didn't test on PR1.3 but I don't see anything from the changelog people posted
1. you didn't read the link posted, did you? btw I am also in CC-list of that bug.. just install the app I linked and magic will happend when you try next time the codes. (btw you can also manually edit phone apps config files to enable input of the codes you need)


2. try a service that follows the standards (unlike googles own service). this one is free: http://nuevasync.com/
e: and you can link your google acount to nuevasync and sync google data through it. I have the paid version so I get also emails via MfE

virtually no difference on my device.

asking myself it this update wasnt just a placebo...?!

got a sms yesterday telling me about a new update for my n900 and i should check out to "www.nokia.de/softwareupdate"
this site shows my the "new update" - its pr1.2

I got the update notification, it told me to install OTA and use WLAN. After downloading the 90MB it tells me I didn't have enough battery charge remaining so try it again by connecting the charger. I thought it will start downloading again, but no, it must have continued from where it left off and after a few minutes it completed the installation with a reboot. Could the upgrade have been simpler than this? I don't think so.

For me the most important thing of this upgrade was that not many of the community apps and customizations that we made broke after the upgrade, which I think was really great. All in all it left me with a faster more responsive N900 and maybe a better battery life (which maybe just my imagination I don't know, but it feels like that).

So, giving the thanks that is due: Thanks Nokia!

My ipv6 connection never works, which essentially means that when I'm not home I basically can no longer connect to the Internet. No big deal, since I'm home most of the time and can use my Wireless. (It worked fine before the update)

But I take for granted constant updates from a lot of companies. Why should I thank Nokia so much, when I don't thank the other companies? I only paid the other companies small amounts and I paid Nokia a large amount. So why should I beg Nokia for updates and kiss its feet when it gives me a few crumbs?

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
I wonder how many of the people complaining tried living with a E70-2.

The little bit that I used it, rotation seems faster, email seems a little faster, App manager doesn't seem to completely cripple it anymore. Hopefully, my new headphones come in tomorrow so I can try it as a music device again.

However, partnering it with my Sansa Fuze seemed to solve some stuttering and battery life issues.

as for USSD codes, I could have sworn that I checked my tn usage without reloading my apps, maybe it has been? Gotta check the fix list.

Yeah, mouse support - tried it and it reboots my n900.
Yeah, keyboard works fine but it's touch and go if it connects.

My bluetooth keyboard is a Logitech Mediapro PS3 bluetooth keyboard with integrated touchpad.

It works with every bluetooth computer I know. The n900 is an exception.

Symbian-based Nokia devices support bluetooth keyboards.

if it was not for qole's excellent scripts I would not have bothered trying.

I am forever thankful to qole for his work on Easy Debian.

Bluetooth connectivity should never have been an issue in the first place.

I didn't, but I did live with DOS and Windows 3.1 and OS/2 and many versions of Linux and Windows since then. Not to mention my Timex Sinclair computers and my Adam Coleco.

This is a GREAT update nokia; my phone has never been so fast or held so much battery life before (though it is using 20mb more ram).
Thanks!

At the same time the n900 is still lacking some really basic features:
Personalized ringtones for each contact (9yr old samsung did this)
Individual Alarm Tone for each alarm clock! (old samsung did this)
(Im sick to death of using the alarmed app to play me different songs on different days of the week. This should have been vanilla)
