Thanks,

I think geneven already volunteered ^^

Troublemaker! Let those who want to talk elsewhere take what they need from here and hie themselves thither.

Emergency calls?!?

Look what I just found in the SDK! It's under "Settings / Restore original settings" if you want to see for yourselves.

I guess this is confirmation that we're getting a phone, eh?




EDIT: More confirmation from the SDK!

When starting up the desktop, I see this error:

Code:
hildon-home[2930]: GLIB WARNING ** default - /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/connui-cellular-operator-home-item.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Interesting... A "cellular operator home item," eh?

Moderators should be able to split out the relevant posts from the thread into a new thread (maintaining post time, ownership, etc.). Not sure how it's done in vBulletin, though.

Most forum software has a feature available to moderators that allows them to split out posts from existing threads into new threads. This is not something a regular user could do as seamlessly, and it is what mikkov is referring to.

Lack of time?

I'm sure Nokia would be more than happy to start integrating something cool like this if they had some community patches to work with.

Hehe, now we know what to delete in order to get rid of annoying operator "branding", when it does appear...

I know the ability is present. What I'm saying is that I don't think the work is "easy." The functionality might be, but going back through a 124-page thread (right now, that is) and finding the pertinent posts is the tricky part.

It depends on permissions and it is found under thread tools... but again, talking about it here is way off topic.

Since that door has been opened, let me continue on through... It isn't so much the time syncing as it is editing in references to other posts that are no longer there and dealing with the continued "hey, where's my post" and "what are you talking about", off topic chatter that is now in two threads.

It's easy to sit back and say "that won't happen here because we are all adults" but, some people can not move on until things are in some sort of self imposed, anal retentive order...

IMHO, there seems to be more people like I just described where ever program developers, and code warriors congregate.

Now how 'bout them specs, eh?

Having temporily left my N810 someplace, I notice that I greatly appreciate the bigger screen on the N800. Small things make a big difference.
