Dear all,

just have a small Issue, more cosmetic than not working.
After the last Firmware Update I have some unknowns in the point about product in my device.
Anyone a idea?
What I saw was the following:
- I updateted with the Flasher (Firmware and eMMC)
- restored my backup

Everything works like charm after some help with members from here.

But now I see in about the product the first 3 rows marked as <unknow>
And Im sure before the Backup it was written 3.x at least as the Version.

Anybody a clue what I messed up?

BR

I've seen this happening if the core Maemo 5 package has been uninstalled. That shouldn't have happened with the process you've gone through, but you can check for this by running:

Code:

dpkg -l "mp-fremantle-*"

If it doesn't show a single entry flagged with "ii", then you'll need to install this package. The package name will depend on which firmware variant you're using. For the generic firmware, it'll be "mp-fremantle-generic-pr", whereas for the US firmware it'll be "mp-fremantle-002-pr" (and similar for other regions).

That looks okay, so it must be a different problem

I guess you could try reinstalling it to make sure though (you'll need rootsh installed):

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-generic-pr

Just tried no change. Still does not show anything just unknown.
Worked like charm with no error.
Also just reboot just to make sure.
Its just cosmetic anyways

But just wondering why it happens

Im having some problems with the new firmware (installed via Nokia SU) if someone could help:

1.-The msn plugin doesnt work (only with pecan) but with some problems, when i try to chat with two of mi contacts the plugin disconects and says there was a network error until i close the chat window then if try to open again it disconects.

2.- OVI Maps, when i open the aplication and try to see where i am by pressing the red location button nothing happens i can't see the red point, also the map doesn't move in any direction while 'navigating', the gps indicator shows that there is signal and is working properly.

These two things are drivin me nut, so if anyone knows how to fix it i will be very grateful.

Btw im using the global firmware since i have a NAM unlocked version.
