Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

I made the response where I did as I wanted readers of my previous post to easily be able to see my follow up. I'll not pursue trifles though.

I made neither claims or assertions. It would be...

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

Really? Are you referring to recovery after being re-flashed or otherwise?

As for the matter at hand,

Buying N950 for Development

Considering Developing/Would like to buy N950

Hi,

I have been using my N900 for some time now. I have put off purchasing an N9 as it came with Aegis (read: malware) that did a good job of encumbering the user. I've read that progress has been...

Dr. Frost!

Nice to see you are still the dean of the "College of Nokia N900 Power". You are, indeed, a cornerstone of the community.

I'm back from the dead and am considering putting something...

Re: 2012 Coding Competition

I'm not sure if this has yet to be mentioned within this forum but I am interested in the legal parameters surrounding the N950's being offered as prizes.

Prior N950's are bound by a contract that...

Dr. Frost,

I am currently in "litigations" with Mugen. I will keep you updated with developments. I will be shipping my battery back to them tomorrow. We will see how that plays out.

Dr. Frost - the Mugen is yours. Period. Once given, forgotten.

Besides, I think I'm going SCUD.

Re: Battery Tests, Homemade 3000mAh XL Battery & Q&A (GOTO POST #1) SCUD is BACK!!!

Pretty disappointing. The battery really should be at least 2400mAh and not just because they claim that (although that is the least you should expect considering) but because of the typical charge...

Re: Battery Tests, Homemade 3000mAh XL Battery & Q&A (GOTO POST #1) SCUD is BACK!!!

I would certainly be interested in some custom CNC/3D printing action for the N900. I can't think of anything immediately that I would customize. I'll leave that to you.

Emphatically,

I suppose I did not read closely enough. Regardless, I'm ordering the two batteries for Frost and myself.

My already fat phone is about to go on a hamburger diet.

Thanks,

Dr. Frost,

I read about half of this thread but didn't come across if you had ever tested that Maven battery? I'm interested to find out if the the company's claims are accurate.
