Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Just upgraded as well and I only have one gripe so far. My WLAN's SSID is set to hide, I uncovered it so the N800 can see my router, saved it on the N800 and verified that I was able to surf out, hid the SSID, and the router saved the changes and it rebooted, I tried to connect again and it does not show up on the connection list. Anyone else having problems? I was able to hide the SSID and connect before.

NM, I went to Connections/edit/clicked Network is hidden and it found it.

Has anybody successfully tethered their Diablo N8xx via PAN to their smartphone?
This aspect seems to be borked, but perhaps I should try a fresh non-backup install....

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I'm going to add another Rhapsody question. Even going through the suggestions in this thread it still does not seem possible to install Rhapsody. Has anyone been able to do it successfully? If so can you post a description of what steps need to be taken to do so?

Thanks!

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

:::

Can Someone Please post all the ORIGINAL Diablo Repositories List
at Application Manager.

I restore my backup, don't know if this will lost the
new Diablo Repositories List or have any ill effect...

Thanks...!

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

this is what I get for not logging on for one day, 25 pages of diablo news...

I'm thrilled this release is finally out, and even more proud that I actually read every comment before asking any dumb questions. Sounds like a few good things and a few problems are going on. It also sounds like a restore after reflash may cause headaches with some apps. Modest still crashing, but at least it's default mail (for those of us who didn't like claws). Perhaps we can get a sticky going that lists apps as people install them on diablot and a link to the thread that explains how to fix it if there are tricks to installing them?

Overall, I like what I am reading and I will backup everything before I try this out.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I'm having a real nightmare installing Rhapsody.....

Am being told I have applications missing:

I followed Matyas's really helpful advice.

But now still get:

Thinking its the backup causing the problems I reflash and try to install rhapsody on a fresh system but exactly the same problem as before.

Has anyone else been able to install Rhapsody?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

It worked for me this way:

1) I've installed agps-ui (that was my very first package I've installed in Diablo ;) )
2) I've ran it and clicked somewhere soouth of Italy.
3) I did set it up to connect via my mobile connection (the only one that was available in the drop down menu, probably I didn't set up any WiFi at that time)
4) Checked out the "allow packetdata" option
5) I've ran the Map application

that's it.
Second time, agps-ui was not running:

1) I've executed the Map application and it connected automatically thru my cellphone connection.

What I've noticed during this second try was:

the Map application found 1 satellite with some weak signal..after the tablet was connected to the Internet via the cellphone (something like 1 second) it suddenly initialized the list of visible satellites, showing something like 5 or 6 of them with no signal.
After 1 or 2 more seconds a few of them showed some signal and a few seconds more it got a fix.

Thus, my undestanding is that you tell it (via the agps beta program) where you are and based on this information it'll retrieve the list of visible satellites in your area.
Thus it only need to look for them and compute the fix.

Probably there's a lot more in it, because otherwise:

a) it would have been smart to store in the tablet those satellites and feed them everytime the GPS is going to be used.
b) probably Nokia would have stored a small database of those satellites on a per city/per country base on the tablet. Thus you wouldn't need to connect to the Internet to retrieve them.
c) The AGPS support would have been already included in almost every GPS device out there by now.

Something else is going on, but I have no knowledge about GPS stuff.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

AGPS utilises the mobile phone transmitters to help triangulate your position.

I used to have a Motorola A830 phone with '3' and this was very useful prior to GPS becoming affordable with the built in maps application. It could help tell me the closest whatever-I-was-searching-for.

I cannot make this AGPS app on the N810 do anything though. I changed the settings to link to '3' but still nothing.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

all good for me install-wise.

just used backup restore for bookmarks/contacts/apps and all is good.

only thing that doesn't seem to work is that microb-pageupdown deb that made the change to the browser to scroll with d-pad rather than it jumping down links on the page. Anyone else get any luck with that, or is there a newer version or something?

otherwise, browsing does seem snappier, flash a bit smoother -though not perfect ;) - email client seems fine and touchscreen seems much more responsive around the edges, especially getting to the little x window-closer top right hand conrner. Very handy!

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Thanks anidel, got it working now. Turns out the connection to my Win mobile phone (Samsung sgh-i600) wasn't working. Re-paired with my Nokia N95 and Hey Presto! AGPS app put the spot on the UK (where I am).

However, AGPS Wifi connection does nothing as far as I can see. And I have to disconnect Wifi and reconnect to phone manually to get AGPS to work (i.e. Neither AGPS nor Maps try to initiate a connection automatically to the phone to get an AGPS position).

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

no clue, but the one i had stored on my external card worked like a charm. (i do that to all debs i grap outside of repos).

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I think you have to manually disconnect WiFi connection and re-connect (manually) to your mobile phone before AGPS will function.

Seems like the AGPS WiFi connection does nothing for me (no matter how long I wait) or for you either.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

In case no-one has replied yet (can't see any) and in case you read this:
I think it should be the same as your old lock code - mine has stuck with me.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

yes, I do that too! :D the one i had is simply called microb-pageupdown-0.1.deb - yours the same?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I've got it working fine with this deb:

http://timeless.justdave.net/maemo/m...updown-0.1.deb

Although it seemed ify before I rebooted after.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

yep, same one.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Greetings:


I've upgraded to the new firmware Diablo.

Maybe I'm not looking hard enough but can someone please tell me what has been improved over the older firmware?

For me the only thing I've noticed is that Diablo is faster in responding when flipping through different website pages.

Also Video seems to run much more smoothly.

Can anyone add any other improvements that I can't seem to notice.

Regards Robert

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Why not leave well enough alone? Just hold down D-Pad to scroll, or tap it to go to a link. Best of both worlds. I must be missing something...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Personally, before I changed it, I never used it to go to a link. Never. Just didn't find that convenient at all. And holding it down to scroll can get old real quick. It's slow and ended up being rough on my thumb, like when I was playing nintendo for hours a day!

One tap to jump down an entire screen's worth hits the sweet spot----for me. Those last two words really are the key. ;)

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

:mad:
i have just wasted 1 hour flashing to Diablo then reflashing back to the older version as pidgin and other apps i used all the time just will not install. i will give it a month before they all get fixed and then i will reflash it.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

have you fixed the repos...my pigdin works fine...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

how do u do that?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

in meamo extras add chinook diablo to your distro line

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

can you give me a newbie way of doing it step my step

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Just create a new catalog with the following info:

Catalog name: maemo Extras chinook
Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras/
Distrbution: chinook
Components: free non-free

That's all. The old applications will appear as installable applications.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Go to application Catalog. Open up the catalog details for extras. In the line Distribution add the text 'chinook diablo' without the 's

beat me too it...making breakfast for the kids...look the first 10 or so pages has all this...read back...its all there

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

after flashin to diablo i tried to restore my backup. a window appear telling me that there are some files in the tablet that are newer than backup.....i choose "yes to all " ....now i have a big doubt.....in my tablet i have the new or the old files ? thanks

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

mine worked fine...aint had no problems yet...ll my apps work...and just did pbs clone os to flash......so everthing is happy....

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

By tapping "Yes to All" you chose to overwrite newer files from Diablo with older files from your backup.

While upgrading my tablet to Diablo, I saw several of these overwrite warnings, but none appeared to be a critical decision. Each and every one regarded a website icon in the RSS Feed Reader's cache. I elected to keep the newer icons that came with Diablo, but I can't image overwriting them would have caused any harm.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I can't seem to get my wired connection over USB to work. I have reinstalled usbLAN_0.2.1_armel.deb and dbus-scripts_1.0.3_armel.deb, but when i go to change connection I no longer get the "WIRED" option. Anyone else had this problem?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Storing the satellites in view won't work. The GPS satellites are not in geosynchronous orbits, they're in lower polar orbits, and constantly move from north to south, with westward movement as the earth spins. The satellites in view anywhere on the earth are constantly changing, so the GPS has to know what satellites are in view depending on the location and the date and time. The normal way to figure this out is by downloading data from satellites, but that takes time because the GPS has no idea which satellites are in view. Using AGPS, the receiver can quickly get an almanac and ephemeris data over the cell connection, as well as a very close approximation of its position, and thus know which satellites to use. Most receivers can store the almanac data and know which satellites are in view provided it hasn't been moved since the last time it had a fix, and provided it hasn't been too long, because only so much data is provided in the almanac.

skype still seems to have no voicemail options. it really bugs me that it just rings forever unless i'm offline or reject the call.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Ok, I'm going to take the plundge. Any idea when a kernel can be created from diablo that can support the screen rotate option?? I think thats the only thing that I will be missing since Fanoush already updated his boot menu.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I have the exact same issue. Seems that this update was not ready for prime time.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

For what it is worth....I am having the same exact Rhapsody insall problems as kudos1uk is having. I sure hope this can be figured out ASAP as I use Rhapsody for most of my audio needs...

Anyone have more info on the osso-ic missing package?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I just re-flashed and am watching the app manager re-install my apps. :)

So far, this is wonderful. I've had time to peruse this thread while going through the re-flash/re-nstall and it seems that comments are largely favorable!

Just the ease of rebuilding the IT is worth it, and seeing that this will set the standard, I add my thanks to the Nokia team listening and for continuing to improve this product. Please, keep up the good work!:D

im glad someone else isn't having any problems...

UPDATE: Be forewarned. It seems that if you use PenguinBait's install-tools deb to clone diablo to sd this rotation support will be borked. Someone smarter than me will have to tell you whether and when you'll be able to have both at the same time...

UPDATE 2: Problem fixed. After using PB's install-tools deb, reinstall this, this, and this. (These are xomap, xrandr, and auto install debs from here.) Then reboot. Rotation restored.

Note that things may be totally different for rotation implemented via sliderotate (which is not the method I'm using).
