Re: ScummVM on N900

I asked about this a while back as Simon the Sorcerer needs them to skip the opening sequence and also, I think, to access the save menu.

Didn't get a useful answer.

Re: Who Flashed N900 with PR1.3??

Seriously tempted to flash mine since the UK version still isn't out.

Anyone know what the difference is between UK and global?

Re: someone should really port the MINECRAFT game

Micecraft isn't open source, so I doubt anyone will be porting it to native code for the N900 or any other platform. Try it with one of the Java solutions in that wiki...

Re: Nokia Messaging prompts for password repeatedly

If you're still using the trial then setting it up over wifi should work just fine.

It's only if you are paying your phone provider for the service that you need to set it up over GPRS/3G.

Re: Nokia Messaging prompts for password repeatedly

One reason for getting the can't contact email provider error is if you are not subscribed to the service via your phone provider (assuming your trial is over).

Re: Nokia Messaging - i thought this was free?

All I use it for is to get timely notification of my emails, and for that it works just as well as my old company provided Blackberry did. (I had plenty of problems with BIS too! :D)

Re: i thought this was free?

I don't see why it's unfair to charge for it to be honest. Someone has to run a server that polls your email account continually and then contacts you and pushes the email to your phone. It's not...

Re: Sygic - Do they read their email?

Thanks for the reply. They sorted it yesterday, thanks.

Liking the app apart from the scrolling animation on the main menu grinds the app to a halt for 10 or so seconds, which seems a bit odd?...

Re: ScummVM on N900

Grim Fandango did not use the SCUMM engine, it was a 3D engine of some sort, so I doubt ScummVM will support it.

Re: [Request] Vuvuzela Horn app

The Android and iPhone versions of this have a feature that changes the tone if you wave the phone about while it's playing.

Any chance of adding that?

Re: Nokia N97

The n97 keyboard is pretty awful. The n900's is a slight improvement (ctrl key) though I miss the D pad.

The E90 still holds the crown for best keyboard on a smartphone, I think.
