maemo.org - Talk - Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

Sorry if this is already mentioned (tried to search and run through this thread).

Did you people lose the ability to sort the application list in app manager (alphabetically or by size of the app) with PR1.2? My app list is sorted by the size of the app and I can't find a way to sort it alphabetically. This is really irritating. How to fix?

I also haven't got a way to sort but once you go into any of the categories under Downloads, you can type e.g. a, to access all applications starting with A etc.

Ok, here is my experience...

I updated my phone via "Nokia Software Updater".

After that, I opened the "Phone" app, and it started in landscape mode, so I decided to go to options, and I turned of the "turning" and put it as "portait" as defualt. After that, I closed the app, and open it again, and it opened in landscape mode again. After playing with the setting, the turning is still working and it always starts in landscape mode.

Once I get a important call, I will reboot my phone and update about the problems.

This PR1.2... I've encounter reboot issues (boot count) which I've never experience before during PR1.1 and PR1.1.1.

And btw, OM Weather widget have some problem with the Desktop customization.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

MicroB geolocation provider doesn't appear to be working any longer. Testing with google maps desktop/mobile and easypark. Just get the sites respective error messages.

Had geolocation working dandy on PR1.1.1. Wasn't able to do an OTA, so I reflashed rootfs and the emmc to get to PR1.2, and then restored from a backup on a memory card.

Anyone else experiencing/confirm?

edit: uninstalled geolocation 1.1.3 through the microb addons manager, then did an apt-get install --reinstall microb-geolocation, and it installed 1.1.5. Now it's working fine. Weird weird weird. Not sure if removing the addon through MicroB is necessary or if the --reinstall will do the trick, and not going to find out! This was flashed with the US rootfs/emmc images from the Nokia site.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

Does anybody else feel that the microb browser, particularly smaller texts, is of a lighter shade and blurrier than before the update? To me, the graphics and texts aren't as distinct and sharp as before.
I think Nokia made a poor decision to cut a few corners to improve page rendering. Only thing I can't stand right now.

Oh... and youtube like a few have already mentioned definately not as smooth as previous firmware, for ex. vevo music videos. such a shame. =(

The phone application is working well in either Portrait, Landscape, or Automatic. I haven't noticed any problem.

nosa101...are you able to offer some advise here. Each time I try to open 'My Nokia' under Settings (General), the settings application closes and I get the following error message.

'Internal error. Application 'Settings' closed.'

What could be the problem?

This and the inability to rearrange icons in the menu are the only real issues I encountered. Rearranging icons is still a problem, not solved by removing the battery for a hard reset.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

I'm having this widget problem too, quite annoying. On the stock kernel, flashed full fiasco image followed by the new eMMC one. basically everything entirely pr1.2 STOCK. haven't installed anything obscure or unstable.

Is there a fix for this yet?

1. Widget Customisation:
once the "Done" button is clicked it remains highlighted but nothing happens for around 1-2 minutes. This has happened EACH time.

2. Menu Customisation:
once the menu has been customised pressing the "Done" button results in the menu resetting to the original menu set-up.

I'm currently using the latest Power-Kernel overclocked to 900mhz, not sure if this is causing the problem.

Theres nothing like having to modify a config file to be able to sort a list.. makes me feel all linuxy.
Just so that anyone wants to set the sorting in the application manager as Alphabetically and in A-Z order.
1. open terminal
2. vi ~/.osso/hildon-application-manager
3. <click i to be able to modify text>
4. change package-sort-key to -1
5. change package-sort-sign to 1
6. click the Esc icon on screen
7. Enter :wq and press enter

Thanks!! At least it won't bother me now if it's not useful. I got the N900 in London and have done all firmware updates. I got the PR 1.2 through OTA yesterday and after that, i noticed the problem.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

Is the choppy Video recording mentioned? Im guessing yes. Its sad to see that the camera viewer is looking awesome when you pan, but as soon as you press record, the choppyness begins.. Now this shouldnt really be an issue with this device. The N95 managed panning without lag and chops!..

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

...a simple question:

when you go to "change background" in the desktop menu and you scroll down to the very bottom... is it normal that the text that accompanies the ovi icon says: "home_li_get_ovi" or am i the only one who has that?

...when i updated to PR 1.2 yesterday all the texts had that format... appearing like long strings (ex: 8903_plugin_home_click etc.) i kinda resolved it by restoring factory settings... i was just wondering if i wasn't able to fix the issue.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

Still N900 can't recognizing that there is no difference between the local number and number plus + or 00( and code country)

N900 consider they are two different numbers, and when you goto contacts you will find in communication history the number which is saved in the contact already whether with code or without. and ignoring the other one.!!!!!

They already said solved? Sigh .............

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs

i have some serious, SERIOUS problems now.

wlan is NOT WORKING ANYMORE. i'm sitting like 5 meters away from my router, and its hardly receiving the wlans signal. and if it does, its not connecting, telling me "internet connection error. try again?"

i had this problem 1 or 2 times with 1.1 already, a reboot solved it normally.
i rebooted my n900 10 times already today and its still not connection to my wlan.

HELP!

i'm really starting to get angry, this is the first time a manufacturer actually downgraded their product with an update. i'm only having problems after problems since i installed 1.2 :(

Try opening the media player from the menu and play a song. Then minimize media player window and try to use the widget. You can the close the media player window and try using the widget to play.

have this problem as well occasionally.
most times it helps when you remove the widget and add it again.
