Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

Adapted from a free online set to fit :) - my graphics skills are very limited :)

Right, got to start designing the rest of the windows, should make it easier to multithread and have lots of updates now - less per screen too - so less intensive on the phone.

Yeah, a typo it was. Thanks!

Right, got to start designing the rest of the windows

Good idea.
The only thing that doesn't look well on "version 2" is the green text saying "HealthCheck". Either adapt it to the rest of the app. (change the font to plain white) - or just get rid of it.
The app already has a header, anyways.

(I worked as a UI designer at my previous job, by the way. :p )

Huh, by the way, multithreading just came to my app today, too... :D
It seems that I couldn't achieve some most needed snappiness without it - and actually more of it is coming! :p

I agree with Venomo, The green header does not go with the rest of the icons and background.

I would also prefer a lighter background (probably a gradient) than just black

Okay, thanks for your answer. So, I have try the command

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

You can see that there is more than one kind of this package. What you should install depends on what firmware region you have installed.
The suffix equals the firmware file name's suffix in this page. (Or at least, that is my guess.)
Eg. if you have the global firmware, you should use "mp-fremantle-generic-pr", etc.

In this case (for global firmware):

Many thanks for your help. I have flash my n900, healthcheck and all other programs running now.

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

Superb! :) - great to hear it is working, and big thanks to Venemo for your assistance and patience.

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

I just want to say I really appreciate this program being made. It's saved me a lot of headache when I was having a random accelerometer problem, and it helped tremendously that popping open this let me know what was going on. otherwise I would've spent quite a while frustratedly trying to figure out why portrait mode doesn't work.

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

Superb! and thank you so much for taking the time to let me know.
I'm working on the auto-updating version at the moment, which will be a few weeks in development. That should remove the need to "click/touch" to update the values.

The whole idea came about when a few of us had similar issues, and every time needing to use x-terminal to do anything! (Nothing wrong with x-terminal, but a lot easier to have it all in one place)

The question is, have you managed to fix your accelerometer issues? hehe :)

Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

hi!

i had a bug with my n900 just this past 3 hours. my status bar wont show up until i slightly slide the dektop or switch panes when i unlock the phone using the side lock. i was used to it but eventually i got pissed. i tried everything that in my understanding, will fix it, until i cam up with re-flashing.

i feel so lazy that moment and i dont want any hassle. so to make it easier, i re-install the firmware via NSU instead of re-flashing via flasher. and the other reason for this is to find out what fw version will be installed on my device based on my location. my suspision is the Global but im also in north america so us verion will likely be installed......after 5 mins, the fw was re-installed. i re-install all my apps and set aside health check for last (im gonna use this app for checking fw version).

so everything went well, the bug on the stats bar was gone and when i opened healthcheck, i saw this on the FW section:

10.2010.19-1.002 USA Version

awesome! superior! :D
