Possibility to update N900 OS without PC?
 
Hello everyone.

I have an idea how to update N900 without need of PC.
If there is a possibility in "Update" menu to add something like "reflash OS"? It will be very easy for anyone, who has problems with current OS status.

Another possibility - N900 to make a full back up itself after installing the new OS version and only to make a restore - e.g. "factory status"?

What do you think - it will be possible do this?
Regards.

Err... I updated my N900 to PR 1.2 through WiFi, without a PC, by using FOTA...

i dunno if:

Code:

softupd -vv -s --local
open new terminal
flasher --local -s -k /location/of/file.bin

will do (i used it ones in flashing the kernel without a pc)
we need a super expert with this one.

I mean - you already has installed last version of the OS and reinstall it without PC.
