Still using N900? please give me some info!
 
Hi guys!
i am planing to buy another N900.

i have searched about buying second hand n900 and i have enough info now.

according to this post hardware revision with 2104 & 2101 had faulty usb. but the problem is that i have been to the market today and there are 6 N900 i found and all the hardware revision is either 2104 or 2101 i want some info from you if you could check your hardware version and kindly vote there and also post a reply (so that thread is keep bumping for others)if you had any usb problem, please let me know.

here is the breif info about that post

Quote:
check for the line where it says "Revision : XXXX" (XXXX is in numeric form).
Now with the hardware revision, I would personally avoid hardware revisions 2101 and 2104, many users with faulty microUSB port have said their hardware revisions are 2101. Hardware revision number 2104 was reported recently with just one case of slightly faulty TRRS connector.
to check your revision type in xterminal

Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo

I have a 2204 with a uUSB that's just gone funny.
But so far my 2101 has been rock solid for 2+ years.
So I think your avoiding version numbers will not guarantee any thing

My main N900 is a 2204, no problems with it so far. I recently purchased a used N900 that turns out to be a 2101; I don't know how hard the previous owner used it, but its usb port seems to have no problems either.

I agree with Sixwheeledbeast, the revision number isn't going to guarantee that you will either suffer or avoid USB problems...

2104 no probs.

Should add that i filed off all microusb connectors that ever touch my N900 so that they insert and eject almost without any force. I did that the week I got my N900.
