that's the problem. An avi file is not a video format, it is just a container for some other video format. 'fully supporting avi' is practically impossible.

I wish they would make it clear that the n800 supports 'basic mp4, eg: divx style' in 'avi containers'. Most other avi formats are not supported.

I think that if a clear description and example conversion tools were offered then people would not be dissapointed (and frustrated) with the video support.

Trying to manually update Omweather through my work wlan always crashed the whole thing. The only thing left to do was to shut it off. It worked perfectly when I made the update over 3G and home wlan.

Powersave also wont turn screen backlight off when I am playing netradio with Mediaplayer. It turns light lower.. and then back to normal. But not off after it has turned light lower, like it should.

roberc567:

I don't have specific data on battery life; it just seems obvious to me that I'm changing batteries a lot less often. I am using the hell out of my N800. maybe for 12 hours or more a day for web browsing, reading and replying to email, and listening to audio mainly thru streaming, and reading ebooks. And playing with various programs such as Maemo Mapper. Most of the time I am in my house, linked to the wifi. As far as I can tell, the estimated numbers of hours you get after tapping the battery status icon aren't very worthwhile as estimates, but it currently says 5 hours/8 days, and it has been quite awhile since I put in the fresh battery. My WAG is that now I'm getting more like 5 hrs and before it was more like 3. I could be way off.

I am using two cheap Hong Kong batteries and the original Nokia; they are being charged with a cheap Asian charger. So far so good, and no explosions,

I have a theory about battery life and why I had so many bad problems with the earlier firmware. It seems to me that there were precipitous drops in the amount of battery left and this caused bad crashes and corrupted files. Now, with the new version, that problem seems to be gone.

Just flash back to it. I did after I learned that SDHC was not supported. If you are using the windows flasher you will need to download the older version and browse to it from the flasher rather than reflashing the new version. You can download the old version here:

PDF reader works much faster, Ommweather works just fine, everything else works just fine and the lock keys feature no longer annoys me.

*happy with the upgrade*

Anyone else have problems like this.

Yes ... identical problems but itermittently. Also, instead of the nightly reboots, I get nightly lockups. I am blaming OMWeather for now and have disabled it. If the problems go away, I will know for sure.
