Re: HTC Desire has arrived....

Got mine on order as I was due an upgrade, and was Android-curious.

I have no preconceptions as to what I'll end up using as my main device - they'll have to fight it out.
I'm looking forward to...

Re: A possible lead on the mysterious battery drain problems

It was my 'power saving' setting that changed itself when I had the problem. Turning that off definitely sends the power drain off a cliff.

In the early days, there were anecdotal reports that...

Some of my keys have lost their 'click'

My 'O', 'P', and comma keys no longer give any feedback when being depressed, and the travel seems to have reduced.
This is ruining the typing experience for me.
It hasn't had any trauma except for...

Re: Do you miss your old phone??

I miss the size, weight and relative "disposability" of my 5800XM
I miss Ovi Maps 3, which starts up and has a GPS fix in < 10 secs, and got me from Dorset to London and back today, turn-by-turn.

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)

Ha! Just got an updated Qtify from the repos, and just about everything that was wrong with it has been fixed in one go.
Yaspot or Qtify - so confused! :)

Re: Yaspot (spotify client)

This is actually pretty close in functionality to the beloved Spotify client on my old 5800XM, which I was sceptical there'd ever be a decent N900 equivalent of.

Re: Use Profile presets in the N900 with Tweakr

I had the reboot loop, too.

I'd set the granularity to 'Small' and arranged everything nicely, then gone back and set it to 'none'.
The next drag I did sent the display into chaos, and it...

Re: Reflashing Hanging

I had something similar, though it died at about 90%. I took the battery out to reset it, then tried again. NSU said words to the effect of "I ballsed up - having another pop" and it finished OK.

Re: Severe battery issues with N900 (not your usual moan!)

Back up, reflash, restore, but don't restore settings. Worked for me with same problem. It doesn't take long to put the settings back in manually - I was surprised how many were preserved.

Re: My Camera Quality Metric

I changed it to 99% and the pics seem (quite a lot) better to me. I'd do some before and afters, but I'm having problems SSH-ing into the phone.
