... using newest availabe firmware. How can I do that?

I bought my N900 2nd hand, and for example - in Application Manager there was 'search' function. I didn't like the general mess in the phone, so I 'reflashed' everything using tutorial I found on the internet. Everything is fine, but I have my doubts if its the newest availabe version.. There is no "more..." in the menu as well.

About says:
Maemo 5
Version: 20.2010.36-2

I don't have any important data on my phone now, so installing everything from scratch would not be a problem for me.

Thanks in advance!

PS. I bought my Nokia in Netherlands.

Thanks, but am I using the latest availabe version?

If so, why "search" is gone from application manager? It's such a handy option and for me it's just stupid to remove it from latest version...

Its not gone.You just have to open the keyboard and type the name of the application your looking for. It will show u that application.

That's really bad. I have to go to manager, download, and then choose category - then it works there.. But what if the application I'm looking for is in diffrent category? Another minute wasted, cause it take ages to load the category, and then the list with apps.

Before my reflash it was much more simple.

AND is that the latest version I have? :>

I`m not sure if you are just joking, or you are really that dumb.
If you choose ALL from categories you wil have ALL apps loaded, so you can search ALL apps...got it?

If no..your N900 is wasting time with you.
