They provided access to their respective control panel areas in 2.2007.50-2 also. Or am I not understanding you?

Well, this thread was exciting for a few minutes! Now, not so much.

Has there been any release notes yet?

The europe.nokia.com page states:

"OS2008 v. 2.2007.51-3
This software release includes improved stability.
We recommend everyone to upgrade to the latest release."

when you click on "check to see latest version" on the N800 support page

Release notes WOULD be nice.
The file name suggests this is from week 51 or 2007, so two months of testing. It would be nice to think there was more than just a power-on fix, with so many customers suffering frustration these two months.

Anyone else had trouble with the apps restore? After flashing, it offered to restore my backup from the SD card, which is good. Then it offered
to re-install my apps, as listed in the backup. I got a few apps back,
then errors, and eventually it quit completely.
Now I am manually adding them, and OH MY GOD ITS TEDIOUS. All those clicks and delays, you might as well be running Windows.
Time to just install ssh, and run apt-get, I think.
Argh! No ssh in the available list. Off to google ...

beware!

Same as I was thinking... and I just flashed like a week ago too. Upgrading is becoming tedious as all get out... and I don't fully trust the backup method either after the 50-2 update issues.

I have uploaded a torrent to N800 firmware to The Pirate Bay here

Thanks for helping seed it.

I have checked the MD5 hash and its the same as previously mentioned :-

Just pointing out, when your getting firmware from torrents and other areas. You should try to match the MD5 hash (though I think it can be spoofed). But still, an extra precaution.

According to this http://maemo.org/news/announcements/..._released.html it's just a fix for the boot problem, nothing else changed, no need to upgrade if no booting problems were experienced

I suppose if I don't know what the "boot problem" was, then I am not experiencing it on my n810 and don't need to reflash... I'm just curious though -- what was the problem?
