Apart from other things, it discovers and maintains a list of all music, videos, etc on your phone.

Thanks for that!

mine works fine OTA update but sometimes the file in MyDocs is in use, therefore it will not mount MyDocs.

Nope stopped working again, i think i got a fluke

Okay Pr1.3 is officialy shite!

To acess Mass storage, i have to take out the battery do a soft reset, restart the phione with the USB cable plugged in
Once i remove it, i cannot use usb mass storage again unlass i follow the above proceadure again.

PR1.3 is utter ****...period

I have had endless problems.

So far

No Radio
Camera no longer works (just says operation failed, currently on for fixing it from related thread)
and mass storage issue!

FFS nokia...sort this out

My experience is the polar opposite; it's faster, more reliable (e.g., no need to reboot every 2-3 days) and the battery lasts much, much longer.

This is almost certainly because something is holding an open file handle on one of the partitions that would be umounted. Judicious use of lsof should help you find the culprit.

fmradio v.2010.03.20 is still working flawlessly here.

Camera, BlessN900, fCamera, Lowlight, Panorama and HDR Capture all work just fine for me.
I suspect you're running power-kernel, which may be the cause of your camera related problems. From what I've seen on other threads there are fixes and work-arounds for all these problems.

Nokia aren't responsible for the 3rd-party applications/kernel you're using. That said, many folks have cured a variety of odd problems by performing a flash, after the OTA upgrade caused them problems. This may be attributable to an oversight by Nokia.

I suggest you backup and flash PR1.3. Only reinstall the applications that are essential to you for the moment. Wait a while for the dust to settle regarding the PR1.3 problems before re-installing too many 3rd-party applications/kernels. Or, if you'd like to help the community, install them one-by-one and thoroughly retest between each one to help ascertain where the remaining problems might lie.

n.b.: Your tone isn't encouraging anyone to offer detailed help.

Alright -

Why im moaning is this - Everything worked 100% (camera, radio, mass storage, power kernel) on pr1.2

now i updated non of the above work its just so frustrating!


I reflashed not long ago - i really cant be bothered doing it again and re getting all my apps - literally just had the phone just the way i liked it.

In fairness i dont use all that many apps.

Fcam was one, N64 Emu, Snex Emu PSX Emu, power kernel, rootsh, EasyDebian and thats really about it.

I have got the camera sort of working now that i have uninstalled Fcam (slightly annoying)

Still no joy with the mass storage thing though

Just for the record on the rebooting, i wish i didnt have to reeboot for 2-3 days, since installing it, its more like rebooting 2-3 times everyday(proberbly an understatment to be fair)

Sorry for the rant and the tone, its just really knarked me off this, really typical that i got it just the way i liked it and 'shazam' all fuged up

why are you installing extras-devel stuff then? with freedom comes responsibility...

I've had a similar problem with kernel-power v45. It wasn't a problem of busy files on partitions: I had no mass storage even after a clean boot.
Reflashed with stock kernel pr1.3 - mass storage worked.
Then reflashed with MohammadAG hostmode power kernel ver40 - mass storage worked.
Eventually, I reflashed again with kernel-power v45. Mass storage works again. Weird.

LOL gets better this - got the camera working but it wont take any pictures, just says that storage is in use!

Even after a restart....What could be causing this?!?!

Hmm, Have you the link please to deinstall this kernel and maybe get one that works?

Thanks
