Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Guys,
I desperately need your help. I've got the N810 tablet (OS2008, 5.2008.43-7) and I've never used it before. I'm trying to install apps or update the software but all my attempts are not successful(((
I downloaded all the necessary repositories but they do not work.
The only answer I receive is that there are no apps available or that there are no updates available. In the application catalogue I've found the following mistake: Could not resolve '212.058.162.230'
Please help!

PS: I'm new here and didn't find how to resolve the matter. So if there is a similar thread, just give me a link. Thanks

PSS: I saw the thread that repositories are temporarily not working but are there any other ways install the apps?

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

I just looked at the notes about the outage, and they point to:

Which might help you. Otherwise I think they're on the home stretch and you could just sit tight.

I tend to believe that those mirrors are for N900
:mad::mad::mad:
I tried some of them but the result was the same.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Navigate manually to skeiron.org/repo/ and see whatever you need should be there for repos...

Your firmwares+flashers can be found at skeiron.org/tablets-dev so keep calm and use the mirror ;)

If you find anything missing it would be appreciated if you could post on the temporary mirrors thread with what exactly is missing...

Thanks!

Ok,
I think I've found some stuff at http://skeiron.org/repo/repository.maemo.org
but how to install the apps. There are just folders with files. What should I download and can I install the apps using applications manager? Sorry for all this dummy questions but I'm just a newbie.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Ok could you post the sources.list output or something similar on your N810?

That way someone could advice on what to tweak to add the temp mirror so that you can install apps using app manager...

I'm not familiar with the N810 so I'm not too sure of how the things work out there but posting the above would be desired surely...

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

I just tried to follow your instructions from the following thread:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=88707
and added a new repo by clicking on the "New" button in the "Application Catalogues" menu:

Catalogue Name: Community - Mirror 3
Web address: http://skeiron.org/repo/repository.maemo.org/community/
Distribution: diablo
Components: free

The mistake is the same: Could not resolve '212.058.162.230'

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Did you disable your old repos first?

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

I deleted all of them except from Nokia System Software Updates since it couldn't be deleted. So now I've got only two repos.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

You didn't have to delete the old repos; a disable would allow you to enable them when they come back up...

Could you run in X-term apt-get update and post the logs here?

Try it again but are you root first?

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

No, I'm not. Should I?

Yup :)

How can I enable RD-Mode since I can't install Rootsh?

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Direct link to rootsh package: http://skeiron.org/repo/repository.m..._1.4_armel.deb

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

~ $ sudo gainroot

Enable RD mode to gain root privileges

~ $ apt-get sudo gainroot

E: Invalid operation sudo

~ $ rootsh


Usage: rootsh [-a arg0] cmd [args...]


Use the 'root' command to spawn a shell.

If you messed up sudoers and really need rootsh to spawn a root shell, run rootsh /bin/sh.

But *always* use the 'root' command instead where possible.

thedead1440,
I really appreciate your help. The device was updated and I used your thread (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=88707) to create new repos and to install almost all the necessary software. Thanks.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Gyus,
The last thing I need to install is Skype. I cannot find it in the application catalogue. Which repo I should use to install it? Thanks.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Unable to update skype-installer. Incompatible application package.

ildon-application-manager 2.1.19.1
/usr/bin/dpkg-deb -f '/var/tmp/skype-installer_1.65_armel.deb'
Package must have "Section: user/FOO" to be considered compatible.

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

I'm sorry not too sure about that but if you search the repos i think you would be able to find the correct skype package for your device...

Or maybe contact Addison; I've seen him help out on N8xx issues around here so he could be of help :)

Re: Cannot install applications or update the tablet (N810, OS2008, 5.2008.43-7)
 

Edit:

For Skype just add this repo.

Perhaps I was wrong.

Try this instead.

While the Nokia catalog failed to refresh, I was finally able to install Rhapsody using only these 3 repos.

Skype is listed as needing the same ones I believe.

Expect a long wait with servers though.

Good luck.

Addison,
You are genius. Actually, I'm not sure what I did but it works.
I owe you one:)

Thanks.

To be honest, I'm not sure what I did either. :)
