Hey,

has anyone tried sending your contacts to a bluetooth car kit or head unit yet?

this could make or break it for me.

Bare with me as I explain and make my point clear.

correction: address your own personal screw-up

ALL of them are risky, all of them require some bravery, and ALL can lead to unexpected problems.

Then stop moaning like a spoilt child.

- I'd expect nokia to get their act together and maybe post on maemo.org a letter of warning that irreversible things can happen, with examples, cause we are not stupid people.

Not necessary..... they did not approve that leaked PR1.2

- And yes, there was an ample dose of STUPIDITY.

Are you speaking for all or yourself ?

Do I regret doing it? - Yes.

There are many others who do not share your opinions and conclusion....

You almost sound like a child who has flashed his dad's phone without seeking permission and is now dreading the repercussions.

@vickyg exactly what iam thinking i bought the n900 couse its OPEN SOURCE like anybody told us before Nokia or the Meamo Community and now i have to complain about Strategy from Nokia why they dont give Informations and getting called a whiner.. I guess anybody should know what OPEN SOURCE means?

And again i have to say that i thought that the Maemo Council is connected to the Nokia HQ and be able to give some Informations to there Community. And we all have to stop now to call each other fanboy, whiner, troll we are all N900 Users and not a least Buyers arent we?

Maybe my Comment will be banned now too?

best regards Crown

It's not a secret. It's unfinished. That's the problem.

It was considered a leak because it's unfinished. If it were an OS or library update, apt-get update all day. Those still have to be committed before you can update.

This was a phone firmware revision that was unfinished. Nothing to do with opensource - there are updates for Maemo5 OS that once are finalized, they're committed and you can get them. But this is a firmware update for the phone... slight difference, especially when it's unfinished as it seems to be.

I wasn't suggesting that 20101103 was from the version number, that string is visible within the file not as part of the name.

If you eat an uncooked meal, you will most likely get stomachache.

However open the kitchen is, ask the cook.

Well technically this is more Ajar Source; some parts are open and some parts are closed. Furthermore, just because something is open source, the authors shouldn't feel pressured to release it until they feel it's ready.

"Where's that code you said you were writing?
"Actually, I'm not done; there are so many bugs I'd be embarrassed to see it in the wild.
"You suck and don't understand what open source is!
"O Rly? In that case I won't bother finishing it, so it'll never be released.

The way I read the firmware version number here is, like Venemo suggests:

RX-51_2009SE_10. 2010 Week 12 Build 9 Public Release... I have no idea what MR stands for but MR0 would be something like Mobile/Marketing Region 0 - Global.

However, the date you found would suggest week 10.
