Hows the UI? Any colour of the icon? Phoning call function??

Re: [Release] Megoo Developers Edition
 

the developer edition theme is assum. phone calling function is there. UI is very good...nearly same as meego. ya ther are color icons....give it a try...if this development goes on it may take on ADROID for sure.

Re: [Release] Megoo Developers Edition
 

The UI is very responsible, except when starting apps. Especially the damn firefox is dogslow. But some of this lagg is probadly cause of my memorycard.

Re: [Release] Megoo Developers Edition
 

cant reboot...need remove battery

Re: [Release] Megoo Developers Edition
 

you got it wrong. meego 1.2 is not developers edition. but meego 1.2 developers edition is a different project based on meego 1.2 specially for n900. so meego 1.2 is different and meego 1.2 DE for n900 is different.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

ammm , some instructions for the noobs ? :P
so that they can express their feelings too :P

p.s instructions regarding how to install.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

this guid is to install on memory card
http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC

this is to dual boot meego and maemo
http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

See the process below
To use Windows (XP, Vista, 7) to copy the image to your Micro SDHC card, you will need to make sure:

You can unpackage the image file. To do this you will need a compression utility, like 7-Zip http://7zip.com
You have an image writer utility, like Win32DiskImager.exe
https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download
Using your preferred compression utility, extract the contents of the downloaded image. Once uncompressed, you will have a named directory containing the MeeGo Handset Images.

Once you have extracted and located the image you wish to install, use your preferred image writer to write the image to your Micro SD card. Here’s an example of the process you may follow to use the W32DiskImager:

Run W32DiskImager.exe.
Select the desired MeeGo Handset Image.
Select the drive letter for your Micro SDHC card.
Click the “Write” button to start writing the MeeGo Handset Image to the Micro SDHC card.

You should down load the image available in
http://repository.maemo.org/meego/n9...de-acceptance/
The image with extension raw.bz2

You also need to download and install uboot for PR 1.3 from extras-devel

Hope this helps

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Looks good. But really slow when opening applications.
1. UI is smooth.
2. Fennec is slow.
3. Camera needs improvement. Its like a VGA cam picture. Also observed that somehow the cam is not taking the picture infront of lens. it kind of moves the image a little bit right. wierd but u got a try to see wat i mean
4. Wifi connects without a problem
5. Recognized my network
6. Was able to send SMS
7. Was able to make a call but sound is too low
8. Music player is basic but volume is low again
9. picture app has no data. so cldnt check
10. Changeable wall papers and themes
11. battery meter is working fine
12. No lock screen. when we press lock button it shuts of display
13. Did not see how i can turn it off. Had to do a long press to shut the system down
14. Applications are opening very very slow. May be because of SD card
15.. Calender opens a blank screen with bunch of options.
16. Video player is not complete
17. multitasking works good
18. virtual keypad blinks when trying to open. it doesnt even give us a chance to select a character. so needs tweaking

Dont suggest installing for noobs except for the fun and excitement of meego.

Seems ctrl + shift +p is not working to take screenshots. if someone knows a better process let me know. i will post some.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

thanks for the suggestion naninenu !

p.s hope it will be use able for the noobs after some time .

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Can someone take a video of it? Please? hehe

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

I have tried the Meego 1.2 RC2 release 04/05/11.
It seemed far more stable than the dev edition 1.2

I would suggest you wait untill Apr 28th. We are expected to get a stable version by then:)

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

that's what makes life easy :P

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

hi guys ...i tried out meego from the last release and i liked it so id thought id try this new one,i like it although its a bit slow, though that migh be my my cards fault. anyway , i tried to uninstall uboot and although it doesnt show up in fapman or apman, it still run on start up. how do i uninstall proper?

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Look at this

This command might do the trick for u

apt-get install --reinstall kernel kernel-flasher

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Pics or it didn't happen. :D :D

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

hahahaha...

"calendar sucks....dialer sucks...."

ill try the tablet later....

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

guys you should try out the meego de tablet version also. its a bit slower then meego de verison but in some places its better than meego de.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Can somebody confirm whether it is possible to make sip calls?

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Installed it and removed it, looks like a bad skin over Meego 1,2, thats it, no other changes..

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Everyone should really remember, that this still is work in progress. If you ask me it shouldn't be posted here, since this forum has quite a bit of a noob-factor.

Don't worry, I won't be posting anymore. Goodbye, tmo.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Calm down dude, healthy critique goes a long way in producing quality software.. Of course the community owes an ocean of gratitude to people who are working towards a better N900..

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

I think there is no problem with noobs, problem is with those noobs who have little patience and that want advanced stuff without any effort from their part.
I have a hunch that most of them come from a M$/Apple world where they get everything served when it's ready.
Fortunately the open source uses different model, and we see the development phase with all the good and bad things it brings with it.

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

would it be possible to install opera browser on meego? it is much better choice than firefox. It should be standard

is it confirmed that stable DE version will be installable on eMMC?

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Testers needed for Meego, oh ! there are plenty of enthusiasts who would test for free ? they are all Maemo users ( yes I am being sarcastic).

This is another free service to MeeGo or Nokia from Maemo users to test their software on n900 which will finally be released on as end-user edition for non n900 devices!!!!!!!!

Re: [Release] Meego Developers Edition for N900
 

Why would you say that? Meego costs you nothing? Besides, you are wrong, A stable, end-user version of Meego is being developed for the N900. What do you think this thread is about? :rolleyes:
