Re: Will 64GB microSD fit in N900?

In case anyone, such as myself, is interested, the models I can confirm are working properly with the N900 are the 64 GB SanDisk Ultra and the 200GB SanDisk Ultra.
I've added them to the wiki...

Re: Will 64GB microSD fit in N900?

Hi Macey,
Could you name the brand & model of microSDs that you're using?
Myself I'm still on the 64gb Sandisk and it's working perfectly so far but I'm thinking of an upgrade.

Re: N900 Bios Battery

Reviving this old thread again.
I can confirm the battery looks soldered in place (or, even worse, welded) and also confirm that the battery doesn't hold any meaningful charge after a few years.

Re: N900 headphone jack problem. HELP!!!!

Hello,

I have the same problem. Bought extra headphones, as usually it's the headphones connector that's at fault. This time, however, it's not.
I've been able to temporarily restore full working...

Re: Custom Brightness & No Light Sensor (POST #1 & #2)

nman, sifo, dr_frost_dk: You're all welcome! I am glad to have done something useful. I still didn't create any automatic way to customize brightness. Shame on me for that!
Still, since a hex-change...

Hi everybody,
Thanks to you all for your replies. Now I know I'm not alone! :)

Re: N900 won't boot on first try

Thank you all for all your answers.

I guess I did forget to mention I was using kernel-power 50. I did a kernel reflash, as sugested, and I must say the problem goes away almost completely by that...

Re: Soldering advice needed for re-attaching N900 USB to mainboard.

Yes, it's a bit late for that. I gave up and already bought a used N900 with a working port and transplanted all the SD and eMMC contents to it so it's identical to my old phone in every way.
But I...

Re: Custom Brightness & No Light Sensor (POST #1 & #2)

Frost,
Did you have the chance to test the patched module? Are the levels to your liking?
I know I have tested. No ill effects for now.
Do you think it's worth...

Re: Soldering advice needed for re-attaching N900 USB to mainboard.

TheJason,
One more thing: cover the camera with Kapton tape. Or, even better, remove it completely. The trick is to get two very thin things on two opposing sides of the camera. I used a shaving...

Re: Soldering advice needed for re-attaching N900 USB to mainboard.

Quick advice: use a powerful enough soldering iron (this was my first mistake) because a weak iron will just have all it's heat sucked out without being able to melt the solder on the...

Re: Custom Brightness & No Light Sensor (POST #1 & #2)

Re: Custom Brightness & No Light Sensor (POST #1 & #2)

Mind you that since the values I can edit there are in percent (not in 0-255), there are slight differencies between what you requested and what I did:
Level 1: 3% = 7

Re: Custom Brightness & No Light Sensor (POST #1 & #2)

That would be harder to do as in -als I just edited the levels & values (data) but in -simple, as you can remember, there's the algorithm that's different.

Re: Soldering advice needed for re-attaching N900 USB to mainboard.

Thanks, Estel and Lazart for your tips.
