EXACTLY what I was going to say.
To add to it...
Want it fixed el cid?
Here is an answer.
For starters..
To eliminate all possible problems from the very beginning that could be "human error"...
Download and reflash your n900 back to square one...
with the PROPER version...
If you are having issues ...STILL...after a complete reinstall ...
THEN ...BEFORE you install ANYTHING ELSE...
Come and state the issues involved and it will be easier to discount human error....and thus focus on other potential culprits of the issues you are having.
If you are having no issues after your reinstall of the os on your n900...
Then make sure whatsoever you install afterwards ...
is MEANT for THAT version.
Then go back to the wikis and threads and study....study ....study..
And until you are CERTAIN that you know what you are doing and the possible issues you could encounter ...
DON'T muck with your functioning n900
As well...
This is a "community" ...
we aren't "Geek Squad" here...
We aren't paid to help a soul...
We bother to help people because we are troubled troubled troubled individuals who have serious masochistic issues...and probably even more deeply rooted problems...
Expect us to deviate from topic in a thread...
For most of us it helps us focus ON the topic...
(sort of like ...forgetting about the issue to find the answer...like hunting for lost car keys...if you stop looking for them...you find them ...eh? )
And expect us to use humour..
No one will come to a thread and reply to anything if we can't use humour ...
and lastly...
Don't get your knickers in a knot man...
A complete and PROPER reflash will have most...if not all your issues resolved...
And I suggest you get a couple of inspirational posters for your office...
a "hang in there kitty" poster ...
and a Deadpool poster
Maximum effort baby!
Can't ever go wrong with those two...
The kitten and Deadpool ...just work.
