Assume you said yes enable?

Hmmmm

You could try enabling the repository that is installed but not enabled by default on the device using the application manager, before you try to install Canola2 from the web. (After another clean reflash?)

Settings, Application Manager
Application manager, Tools, Application Catalogue
Select "maemo Extras", Edit it and ensure "Disabled" box is unchecked.

This is just my idea, not sure if it will help.

No - nothing will install. Or rather, nothing will download, except that the Application Manager will refresh and go online to do so, obviously, and Web will let me surf. What foxes me is that the N800 behaves perfectly and installs everything (including Canola) which makes me thing that there *must* be something wrong with the N810 - unless there's something simple that I'm not doing - some setting (I have looked) that enables downloads somewhere - which is new for N810 and wasn't in N800.

Further testing just now - successfully downloaded a podcast from the Web and set up RSS feed reader and refreshed it - all downloaded properly. It seems to be clearly related to the Application Manager where the problem lies...

Yes, thanks to anidel for his suggestion and help.

The box was checked so I unchecked it then a new bunch of apps were downloaded on the refresh but still none of them will install. Every app I try just fails.

Thanks ever so much for your help so far Mike and I hope we can resolve this, but I need to go to work now so can't do any more until this evening with this problem.

I'll turn it all off until then and try another reflash before anything else.

Cheers

Tim

Tim, send us the application manager log. This is the best way to know fix the problem...
just saying what happens doesn't help too much :/

I will wait for your log

Marcelo

OK Mike, I've sent the Log file now to you by email. Sorry it's such a pain, but hopefully a good scoop of people can learn from this, not just me.

Hi,I've been attempting to install the latest update for canola 2 v5 but have been unable to install it.It doesn't download at all.I have reflashed my n800 through all os2008 versions and have now found a way to download it.It's doing it now as i type.First switch off device,second remove any memory cards,now try to install canola.Even though i'd run the canola 2 cleanup there must have been some information on my cards that were preventing the download and install.

Just finished the install...downloaded perfectly.

Thanks for this information, Jedi. Certainly worth a try but alas, no joy for me with my N810 problem. Strange thing is, as I've said before, it installed perfectly (as do all apps) on my N800, memory card present or not.

I will continue my quest!

Tim

Aha! We got there! Many thanks to Marcelo Eduardo for his time and support. The issue may remain unclear but he was able to fix it by formatting the internal memory. Everything now loading as it should be and apps installing.

Many thanks Marcelo.

Hi everyone, actually it seems that this problem with N810 memory is a known bug, so everyuser out there facing installation problems (for everything not only canola) should do the format to fix it
