Nokia thanks but……… naa you screwed it. This was a HUGE reason why the PR1.2 release was so delayed (read the statement bellow). And its still not fixed. And the music player widget is not fixed. I cant even use recaller as its a python widget which are unstable on hildon-home as nokia loves to leave things half baked. Nokia this is what apple get right, they only implemented something if it works. Maemo for me has to be restarted everyday along with a killall hildon-home/desktop. Rubish. I love it but maannnnnn im starting to get over the half baked crap. Why are these bugs still here??????????? Do you not know how to fix it???? Lol omg this is is funny. im just shitty.

And we are not officially getting meego and no flash 10.1. its like nokia have been good and listening to their customers or something. N900 so amazing but its currently just…………….disabled :S. before anyone uses my phone I have to killall hildon-desktop/home just to be embarrassed by how buggy it is

To pick up on Texrats advice...

Please be aware of that HK version is some kind of different to the global version so there maybe other things they have to look at for the global one.

Asking again and again for explanations wont help as you wont get much more than already released.

Nokia has a demand of working PRs so it might take some time to fullfill this. As already mentioned in the email, there are some bugs not easy to track down. I am currently investigating in hildon-home hickups which take about 2-5 days to occure so to determine which of the 3rd party programs is causing it takes weeks of testing already. He wrote about longterm issues and maybe they got a way to get something like home mess up in a shorter time but still it will take weeks to test and fix.

If you like to have your phone broken or bricked because of a leaked PR's RC this is ok with me. Maybe there is no closed community test for PR1.2 as Nokia does not want to take the risk yet. Have you thought of that they may bricked devices while testing and decided to not release yet?

Please chill out on the PR1.2 topic. We all have to wait! Posting off-topic and Nokia requests all over the place doesn't help any one but keeps the moderators busy.

felbutss,
I think that widgets should be forbidden from extras completely :| Too much of problems with 1.2 lately. Just downgrading them back to testing and testing them again would be favour to end users.

"problem" with Maemo is that it gives developers freedom to do whatever they want. It´s weird to read that bug comments where Nokia employee says that python is bad in widgets and some of employees says "seeing all the brain-damaged 3rd-party plugins written by 5-year-olds around"...so to speak that they recognize problem but don't care and see it as 3rd party problem. Even thought in that bug report people say that they have not installed anything from extras.

Right now troubleshooting here goes like this
- Yelp my system is slow/jerky/battery drainage etc.
- Ok. Please uninstall all widgets and try it for couple of days

I have found that making a few phone calls with quick succession causes this to happen. Doesn't matter whether you make or receive the calls, but 2 or 3 calls quickly after one another is enough to make this phone poo itself and all my widgets are gone.

Oh and putting a call on hold whilst answering a call coming through on call waiting is sure to make my widgets go down faster than a Taiwanese hooker.

I've got Desktop activity manager running which helps me restore all my widgets quickly, but I found myself making and taking quite a few phone calls this arvo which wasn't much fun

Since I have installed Maemo PR 1.3, all widgets, except for RSS and Calendar, would disappear from my desktops after every reboot. (Also if I install or uninstall any widget.) Re-flashing Maemo didn't help.

Another observation: After I have re-placed the widgets on my desktops, some of them have disappeared from the list of widgets offered for putting on the desktop, some remain in the list.

I think my problem was unfortunately caused by desktop clock widget. Since removing from the desktop the problem has disappeared

For me it was the currency exchange widget, now that I've removed that, no disappearing widgets, and I still use the following:

Mediaplayer
FMTX
Calendar
Moon phase
OMWeather
Email
Desktop clock widget
Nameday
RSS widget
Recaller
System info widget
Caller ID widget
Personal IP address

All widgets updated to their latest versions (with devel repository enabled)

The same occurred on my Maemo... the desktop clock widget was the guilty.
