Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
I do realize that there's already a number of threads about PR 1.3, but I don't care (well I do but not that much) and I'd still like to personally THANK THOSE WHO WORKED ON PR 1.3.

As lostinmirkwood pointed out:

Bug List for 20.2010.36-2 (what we're calling PR1.3)

Just like there's a number of people that constantly whinge about the lack of this and that, I'm sure there are also others who APPRECIATE this update anyway simply because the amount of resources spent for this.

Please KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK and make us even HAPPIER with FUTURE UPDATES.

IMO caps are OK for saying POSITIVE things :)

Thanks again to Nokia!

Why is there no 'thanks' button on your post?

Because of only 5 posts? Dunno.

But yeah. Thanks for the update. I'd really like to thank the community as well for not going as apeshit as before PR1.2. :)

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
What THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only new feature in this update is: Ovi Suite synchronizing which is useless.
we expect more than this at least:
1)- 3G video Call.
2)- More Battery enhancement.

If nokia is on their game they will count the number of downloads for PR 1.3.
And tell us, of course

I checked his other posts, and I see no "thanks" link on those as well.

good idea, thanks Nokia for this update! I was happy with my N900 before, and the bugfixes and overall smother feel of PR1.3 makes me even more happy. Thanks again!

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
I can understand frustration of many here, BUT still Nokia deserves THANKS!!!

Only one who have been on booth sides could understand that!
booth sides=company who serves customers and customers side
(I've worked many years for a company serving customers, and not many of them are really been thankful for anything, even me and my coworkers busted our a**es from work even some nights and holidays sometimes -what could be more frustrating?)

The money are not everything, especially for the guys who serve us from the Nokia's side!

Remember today I'm on the customers side! And I'm not working for Nokia!

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
Thanks to Nokia indeed.:D

By the forum numbers it appears PR 1.3 was not as anticipated as 1.2 was;)

Currently Active Users: 1575 (324 members and 1251 guests)

Most users ever online was 2,726, 05-26-10 at 20:31. (PR 1.2)

I would still want to know how many total n900s were produced
(as well as how many were sold)
and how many were upgraded to 1.3.
These things would tell a lot about who we are:

There are those who use handphones.
There are those who use smartphones.
Then there are those who use the n900.:cool:

Cheers:D

Few hundred bug fixes and improvements is well enough a reason to say "Thanks Nokia".

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
YAY THANKS NOKIA! Now maybe I can finally consider buying one of these... waaaaait, do bluetooth keyboards work without hacking? Mouse support? USB host mode support? Hey waitaminit... this isn't compelling. Boooooo! :P

silentjayz 2010-10-26 07:55

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
One way or another nokia deserves a thanks. . . my n900 runs 10x smoother than before. . . :)

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
I need 2 regular Nokia phone feature, but still missing in PR1.3. I will thanks Nokia if they implement them.

1. USSD code is still not working e.g. **21*xxxxxxxx# (not support in PR1.3). We used it for callforwarding in Hong Kong and I believe it applied to many countries. This feature was available in my first mobile phone 10 years ago!!
2. Google Contact Sync. Can someone confirm if this one is working in PR1.3? This has been a standard in rest of Nokia phone in past few years.

Nokia, please read this!!

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
It's a good thing for Nokia to support N900 but now, we need a true update which improve this N900 and destroy all (or the majority) of bugs.

naj 2010-10-26 07:59

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
Thanks Nokia from me as well. Count me as another happy N900 user, even if not everything is perfect. But I find myself using the N900 increasingly for more purposes and letting the laptop sit suspended in the backpack.

Waaait. Sometimes you complain that Nokia doesn't open enough of N900 to allow hacking in of missing features and bugfixes. With a little bit of "hacking" you can have both BT keyboard and mouse support, and with qole's scripts it is mostly seamless. So what is your complaint this time?

Have you guys been noticing better battery life? I am definitely feeling that has improved quite-a-bit.

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
hmmmmmm
I bought the Nokia N900 from the very first day it was relased
and as everyone saw on Nokia Website - it says VIDEO CALL ( support comming soon )
i dont think nokia really supporting the Nokia N900
all these updates are USELESS !!
even update PR 1.2 was useless
lots of bugs
if someone missed call me
the music player will start playing by it self !!!
nokia said they fixed that at the update PR 1.2
BUT THEY DIDNT !!!
the update PR 1.3
does NOT run smoother for me
I LOVE MY NOKIA N900 , i was a nokia fan all my life
but nokia dont care to give us some REAL SUPPORT !
:(
why nokia :(

"music stutters while multi-tasking, especially browsing web"
my only complaint about the phone. Seems to be fixed :]

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
I wait to thank nokia until after PR 1.4.for now, nokia should thank all the people doing the job nokia didn't want or had time to do.

Rather thank the community dev, hackers and user.

Thanks...see you in a random speculation thread soon.

NNineHundred has not confirmed his/her email address. As a result, he/she can neither thank nor be thanked.

Much like the criticism that rooting an Android phone is outside the norm for doing some wild things? The problem is that I HAD all of that (except the mouse support) on my N800, but they were taken away on the N900... and now you have to hack around at it to restore functionality. This does not impress. LONG LIVE MEEGO!

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
Simple Thanks, my N900 works pretty much faster now and App Manager is USABLE again (It used to take about 5 min to install anything), and had not experienced problems with my apps after all the updates (MyContacts failed, but updated and worked again).
I've not experienced blocking bugs as "the camera bug (?)" or "The Keyboard Bug(?)" or "The Hildon Bug (?)", befor or after the upgrade, so I guess everybody talk about the fair as they lived it.

It is so smooth now and for some reason my web clarity is better, better battery life, faster email...........

I am so Happy I just bought another Nokia N900! Now that is a true fan

Re: Thanks for PR 1.3, Nokia!
 
Smoother than before, bug fixes a year after I purchased this thing...I'll give a thank you for that.

I know, I know...all the haters out there are shouting from the rooftops that apple, blackberry and microsoft have gone to great lengths to keep updates flowing to year old products so this should have been an expectation and a fundamental right we recieved this. I have yet to find a perfect phone so I'm cool with an update that cleaned up many bugs.
