It suggested to use PC suite and I used PC suite, and the whole thing took less than 10 minutes, included 5 minutes to update the updater. Everything worked fine, so far...

PC Suite told me to use OVI because upgrade is no longer supported by PC suite. Anyhow, flashing with OVI went fine. But I would like to know what "better ovi support" actually means. I don't see any difference nor I do know where to look.

1. People worried about not being able to install PR1.3 shouldn't worry about it. It's the most dispensable update I've ever seen.

2. Using PC Suite worked fine for me.

3. I didn't uninstall Power Kernel and all went well in my case.

I've installed PR1.3 Global OTA through App Manager (on my Vodafone UK N900). This has installed fine. But before doing so, I didn't uninstall the Power Kernel, which I was using to overclock (nicely stable at 900MHz, very pleased!).

Of course installing PR1.3 has removed the power kernel, and of course the OC. Which is fine, but I'm stuck with the Power Kernel uninstallation icon in the menu. When I try to uninstall it can't, complaining that it can't restore to the Nokia Kernel, and I can't uninstall it through the Application Manager either, as it complains that I should do it through the app menu.

So what am I supposed to do when the next revision of the Power Kernel comes out and I want to install it so I can have some OC goodness? Am I going to have to reflash or restore to factory defaults from the Settings menu? or does anyone have any bright ideas?

I'm not adverse to getting down and dirty in xterm if thats what it resorts to, provided someone has some decent instructions (long time Windows-fiddler and PC overclocker, relative newbie at Linux, having only installed Ubuntu when I got my N900 so I could flash easily and safely).

Thank you very much in advance for any help given
you can simply restore the power-kernel, the current one from devel works fine on PR1.3. Simply do this:

1. get into xterm
2. become root
3. run this: apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-flasher
4. reboot
5. you now again have a working Power-Kernel wirh overclocking

PS.: of course you are responsible for your actions, this worked for me but I don't give any warranty that it will work for you.

I haven't yet applied my overclocking config again yet, but I have followed your instructions and the power kernel is back in action! Thank you so much

I have tried to install the OTA update, but it will just download the 44.9 mb worth of data and just sit there on the progress bar. It dosnt tell me to use the PC Suite or USB or anything. Any ideas?

Thanks
