So you are not going to put in any effort at all and expect magically things to happen. Good luck with that.

Because you don't want it enough.

Yes, I know what to do.

You could search the thread for an answer. Actually less typing than your post.

I don't know how anyone who cannot be bothered to read/search through posts and demands people tell them information get ANY 'thanks'.

You aren't getting the update because your username has numbers in it which is confusing the package manager, you may have to delete your user account and recreate it.

I had battery-eye installed. Then I updated to PR1.1.1 over-the-air and absolute no problems. I just made sure to have enough space in rootfs. The update went through, no problems, auto-reboot, and battery-eye and sshd and rsyncd all worked as seemless as before. I don't think battery-eye is any evil. If python libs are updated, very good, why should this be a problem for another software which just *uses* that lib? System updates would be impossible if that were a problem in general.

You should also check that you've not (at some point) uninstalled the core update file. In X Terminal, run:

Code:

dpkg -l "mp-fremantle-*"

If it's marked as "un" then you'll need to re-install the package (should be mp-fremantle-generic-pr for Europe I think).

Yes. Basically everytime someone from the UK whines about not getting the update, Nokia puts back the release time another hour.
