Does anyone know if there is a consistant work around for this at the moment. I.e. once the Mic doesn't work, (as per previous replies), is a restart usually enough to get it going again? But then a further charge potetnially causes it to stop?
I'm still trying to work out if I could be struck by this bug, or if mine is a definite hardware or other issue instead. For example, say I fully charged my n900 - would I need to run it flat and recharge with a different charger before it had the opportunity to start working correctly?
Or am I just clutching at straws and hoping my Mic problem isn't as bad as it probably is?

When the mic isn't working launch alasamixer ( alsamixer -c0 for full view) Check and record all the settings to compare against when the mic is working.

My replacement N900 has arrived. Got a few days before I have to drop my old one back in the mail so will do some testing.
I can already say in my case the charger has nothing to do with the issue. I used all the accessories that came with my broken N900 on the new one without any issue. Mic works fine on the new unit. All of my audio settings / loaded drivers etc seem to be consistent on both units. Not seeing anything out of the ordinary yet. More playing tonight - now just having fun re-configuring the device.

For example, I've not been able to get my Mic working at all, and I didn't use the charger until sometime after I found the mic problem.
I do hope that these theories are right and most of the issues can be solved somehow. But unless I'm doing something odd, I can't seem to restart and get it back. Even after charging with usb etc.
Oh well, is just my bad luck. Glad you guys are looking into things quite deeply though. It's good to see the community come together like that.
