My uptime is always less than a day because I change batteries.

it would be interesting to know if people who do not turn off/change batteries have the clock reset problem if they take the battery out.

Honestly, in spite all the **** the N900 gets around here of all places, if you CAN deal with the occasional frustrating bug, 99% of the time (especially with nothing from devel on board), it's known to be remarkably stable - especially with the last two PRs. Now, there are still bugs, and those who get affected by them have little recourse in Nokia, which is the main problem. But meh.

Actually, I finally got one of my own cliche N900 bugs over the last few days - the Conversations database getting corrupted and not saving messages. It took me multiple attempts at the same thing. Doing the more typically recommended method of deleting the database, or dumping it into a pure sql file and then putting that into a new database, didn't work. Killing the entire .rtcom-eventlogger folder did though. Frustrating, but at the end of the day all the other stuff about this device makes it worth it to me.

Clock reset problem? What problem is that? Never had a problem with that. I only have one battery, but I have had to do a couple of resets when the device became unresponsive - and pulled the battery out for a couple of minutes.

Don't recall having to reset the time apart from when I moved from the UK to New Zealand. Although I did find that the automatic update on mine was a few minutes out of sync from my PC (also automatically updated - but that kept time with digital TV), so I now have that option unchecked, and the n900 keeps up fine with the TV & PC.

Mish.

You could always try the battery hot-swap technique, but you do have to plug it in to the charger while you do it, which maybe you don't want to do.

They wouldn't know because they don't take the battery out

Some N900s lose their date and time when you take out the battery, there should be some sort of internal battery to keep the internal clock running when you remove the regular battery, it doesn't seem to work very well in some N900s. There is a thread about it somewhere on these forums.

My current uptime is just over 8 days, it was somewhere over two weeks before that, but my battery died while I was using it even though the battery meter wasn't quite at empty.
