There are 3 hardware parts - N900, cable and PC. Assuming you've tried a few cables, that's not the problem. Both Windows and 'n*x OSs say there's a problem,...

Re: Strange USB issue.

So it seems that the phone thinks you're plugged in to the PC, and what is the output from
ls /home/user/MyDocs

Re: How many of you still use N900 as main phone?

It's not perfect but I really like it - yup, N900 is my main phone. Use a battered N70 as a backup or holiday phone.

SMS is included in most telco bundles and it's reasonably effective. Unless you need to do a lot of international texting, is there really a need for an IP-based replacement of SMS?

Re: i wanna update my N900 with latest OS available, help

The N900 and Fremantle (Maemo 5) are synonymous with each other - there is no better device for Fremantle and no better operating system for the N900. Although there are some irregularities with the...

Re: N900 - 70 days of uptime
