Hello everyone

i've seen some members from my own country (syria) having problems using Nokia and Ovi repositories always ends with 443 error
while extras,extras-devel are working

but hopefully i have solved the problem once and for all

HowTo:

1-) enable extras (they are supposed not to be blocked)
2-) install TOR from HAM or
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install tor status-area-applet-tor tor-geoipdb
Now after doing that .. you should reboot N900
then go to status menu and activate TOR (The Onion Router)

now the most important step
download the attachement (00maemo.tar.gz)
place it in MyDocs

then
Code:
sudo gainroot
tar xzvf MyDocs/00maemo.tar.gz
cp 00maemo.tor /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00maemo
---------

Now activate Nokia, Ovi, or any other blocked repository
try to update

everything MUST go well

To restore: (this is needed if you want to update without using TOR)
Code:
sudo gainroot
cp 00maemo.orig /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00maemo
Hope This Help Many Users

PS: Don't delete the files extracted at /home/user/
which are 00maemo.tor and 00maemo.orig
