Installing apps, just gets stuck at 50%
 
I have not had any problems with my phone, but recently I cant seem to install any more apps.

On the Preparing for installation, please wait screen, it just sits there at 50% for ages without anything else?

Any idea?

Perhaps you might tell which application?

But I would try to reboot and then try again. If it doesn't work, send the log after failed installation from application manager here.

Open up your terminal and type "df"

Report back what it shows.

Well, for example its with the Personal GPRS Monitor.

I have to download some .install file in documents, and when I run that, it just gets stuck at 50%

dl doesnt do anything

Why don't you install directly from Application Manager? I am not sure if it's even supposed to work that way. Do you have internet connection from your N900?

It would be kind of silly to install that app if he doesn't have interweb access from his 900. LOL

Maybe. But asking stupid questions is too often only way to extract critical information.
