@RioT: AFAIK 4GB "nonstandard" SD cards that worked before continue to work with the new firmware. I'm 99% certain I saw a posting saying this.

As to the card corruption problem: Some see it, others don't. Could it be hardware differences? Maybe everybody with SDHC cards (to limit this a bit) could post the following:

- SDHC corruption Yes / No
- N800 made in Korea / N800 made in Finland (it's printed underneath the cover)

Here are my issues:

1) When I open more than one Opera window when browsing, quite often the browser starts hopping back and forth in between the two browser windows like it's stuck in a loop. You can see the title bar at the top switching between page titles.
Solution: Perhaps wait until the other page loads for it to stop, or keep clicking the title bar until one window stays on top.

2) Lost the ability to click and hold the stylus on a link and have the "open in new window" option pop up.
Solution: Hold stylus down on the link and then select copy link, then open a new window manually and paste it in the address bar.

3) When I'm connected via bluetooth to my phone and the bluetooth icon is lit up, when i click on disconnect from a6102i (my phone's name), it never disconnects.
Solution (if you call it one): I have to disable bluetooth for it to disconnect.

4) Quite often when I'm browsing, the browser with crash with an "Internal Error" message and close all my browser windows.
Solution:None yet

These are all I can think of for now. Sorry I don't have any solutions real yet, but more of workarounds. Skype might not have been worth the firmware upgrade for me if these simple usability issues keep cropping up.

Is anyone else having these issues?

I'm not having a single one of those issues. I still have Open Link in new Window even.

Yes I also am having the same problem as your #1.
Also my N800 does not respond when I use my thumb/finger on the screen, no thumb board or thumb menus pop up (yes I've gone to "text input settings" to get things to work). I hope a patch comes soon!!

It responds 2% of the time.

I agree 100% with that!
I'm having a heck of a time bringing up the thumbboard, and I even went to the settings and adjusted them too.

I have just read the last three pages of this topic. I have had none of the issues mentioned here.
When I updated the firmware, I reinstalled everthing and restored nothing. I just kept the documents / music files, which were on SD cards.
Perhaps it's restoring that's fouling the new firmware.

I read every post on here regarding the update before flashing (which is why I waited so long before updating) and knew way ahead of time to NOT to do a restore.
This is a fresh install with me reinstalling all of my apps manually.

I actually had to dust my n800 off. I only went back to it a few days ago (where the hell did I put my bluetooth keyboard). First thing I did after wondering why I hadn't used it in so long (turns out it was cause its hard to fit in my pants pocket) was to upgrade the firmware and redo dual boot. Now, besides canola not scanning any of my music or videos, My device is working fine, even with the new browser.

My point, is try reflashing.

Okay, somehow I clicked on the wrong forum. Long story short, the screen gets snowy (but with lines and blocks) when I turn on the N800 and wake it up. It lasts about 20-30 seconds.

I used the 770 Flasher app for Mac. I hope this is not a result of using that software, but I can not know if it is the firmware or the flasher app.
