... well I'm glad it's not just me ... hopefully there's some simple solution, but I don't see why it can't search from a valid postcode ... *sighs*

I use IMAP with Gmail and that works okay.

My Gmail has been working since I got it. I used Nokia Messaging for Gmail until i noticed there was a Gmail option

Check /home/user/.browser, it contain settings on your last download directory and other settings. Not sure if it is safe to remove it completely and let the browser create another one. But you can try renaming it.

Note that browserd constantly using this file when I last try to make changes to it, so I have to kill the browser daemon, make the change and reboot the phone.

The BUG caused by OM Weather Widget is still there, which is also there since the leaked PR1.2.

Overall, I don't see much hype about this PR1.2, and they took so long to released it. It's virtually no difference with the leaked version.
Worst of all, I encountered my first freeze problem during restoring app and I access the picture gallery. Waited so long but it's still not responding to any touch, opening camera, power button, etc (which used to work for the older firmware when it's freezes or stop responding).

So much for the wait and this is what we get, and yet so many things are still not available. They should've just released multiple updates and show to others that they're active and care about the N900 by having frequent updates.
Current actions shows that they're really neglecting the N900, not paying attention to the N900.

To be honest, N900 would've died easily IF there isn't this community and people providing the plugins, add ons, etc.
What does Nokia do? They can't even provide a proper features like MMS to date, if it wasn't for the community, when will there people be able to use MMS?
The N900 boast about it's socializing with incorporating contacts with IM, yet, to date, there's so little options available. No MSN/LIVE or Yahoo which are widely used, and most people have to depend on 3rd party until today. If one day, after PR1.XXX they finally provide it, people have to merged the contacts AGAIN?????
Facebook Chat is already a good example.

The community is the one that's saving and making the N900 useful.

For me a cpl of bugs i've spotted after the initial update...

BOOTSCREEN

The bootscreen manager application no longer works. Two short video's i had set up via bootscreen manager no longer play on boot up since pr1.2 ota update.


PORTRAIT

CTL_Shift_R : Switches it on but after a reboot it seems to have switched off. Has to be switching on again within each app that portrait mode functions in.

CONVERSATIONS

On entering conversations main UI it flips between landscape & portrait (once switched on) fine. But when i enter a particular convo from the main UL list it flips back into portrait mode so unable to reply to a msg on the go in portrait.

Ok, after flashing to PR1.2, this is the problem I have.

This is from a freshly Flashed N900, haven't install anything else on the phone yet.
I've tried flashing with the old and new vanilla image. I also tried the global and US version of the PR1.2, still experiencing the same problem. It would be nice if someone can help me out here.

By the way, my N900 is the US version.

Geez resize it pic would you?

I have the same problem, but also my N900 started to rebooting and rebooting, till I remove the battery.
Now I am stuck with PR 1.1.1. Any ideas for successful upgrade to PR 1.2?

I don't have the rebooting issue though.

Can you tell me how did you reenable the gsm radio after you downgrade? I can't seem to find the method for that.
