So, they guy at Nokia has confirmed that they know about the issue, and that there is a major update coming last week of Feb/First wek of March. What they will do is merge the minor update with the major update so we will all get everything in one go.

So it seems we may have to wait a little longer, but they recognise the issue and we will get it eventually!

Just thought I'd let you know what I was told!
At last some useful info lol cheers Wes79

on subject of backup/restore and reflash.... is this really saving most thing ie apps. list of repositories. address book. im plugin configuration. text messages etc? and does it touch photos music etc. sounds good esp if wanting to go generic.
i dont think it touches emmc unless u flash that but yeh it restores everything that i can remember (incl email accounts)

I'll sit back and see what happens. Though its tempting to try a drive up the A30 to Truro if the update is there. I need to go to a bank, anyway.

I hope Wes is right about them combining the two updates - the last big one depended on the small one that preceded it.

Hi guys
Can anyone help me and write how to invert these commands?

mv /usr/share/themes /home/opt/themes2
ln -s /home/opt/themes2 /usr/share/themes

I did it to make more space in roots and now after every reboot my phone is in basic theme.
I tried to do
mv /home/opt/themes2 /usr/share/themes
ln -s /usr/share/themes /home/opt/themes2

but of course it doesnt work. I know I shouldn't do that but I did and now I need some help.

Thanks in advance
kriss
