Re: Sony Ericsson liveview and Maemo?

As I understand it the SDK is only for writing plugins for the Android LiveView daemon, what we need is a copy of the daemon ported to N900.

I'm afraid I have pretty much given up on implementing...

Re: Firmware 1.3 on its way????

Flash memory by its nature fragments BELOW the filesystem layer, its how it makes sure no one part is worn out greater than another. As such any slowdown is unlikely to be caused by fragmentation.

Re: how to set"alsamixer -c 0" good sound

The N900 is configured to reduce the sound quality when at higher volumes because the speakers simply cannot handle low frequency sounds at high volume. If you try and bypass it you are pretty much...

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To

I believe that tool merely acts as a DNS proxy, spoofs the PS3 servers so they point locally and perhaps also acts as an http server to send out a false update file to make the PS3 think no new...

Re: Telephony Is Sucking

I assume by 2 rings you mean two cycles (ie ring ring, ring ring) because in my experience its perfectly normal for most phones to not ring for 2 rings (caller side), even landline phones. Its...

Re: Is the N900 ever going to be a polished product?

I just wanted to say that from the direction it seems Meego is going it looks like that WILL be polished and I am quite worried about that. As said previously, the more polished a device is the less...

Re: Would you pay for a firmware upgrade?

Yes, I would pay a one-off fee to upgrade to MeeGo. No, I would not pay a regular fee just to upgrade to the next minor version.
