sweet, i just got the whole days worth of emails all at once, despite the fact that usually they come in as i get them.

if battery life isnt significantly better, i will declare this update an epic fail!

hopefully theyre just greasing the skids for 1.2 within a week or two.

I installed the new firmware update earlier today, they aren't many noticeable changes, though i must say, the web browser (the built in one, firefox is still kinda crappy) is alot more snappier, smooth, and fast, Scrolling also seems to happen more smoothly. Oh an those of you arguing about who got the update first, i really don't think your location matters lol. Because i'm not even in the US. I'm all the way in Trinidad (It's in the Caribbean) and my update was available to download when i had woken up this morning. So just be patient, it will get to every one with time

I flashed to the new firmware (as i bricked it using apt :P) and still have the hildon-initscripts as kept back... anyone forced it? :-)

You like minor update once a while?
or no minor update but only a major update after 2 years of waiting like my N95-3?
I definitely prefer some updates and fixes more often

If you will force it you cannot install mp-fremantle-002-pr.
I was have to downgrade hildon-initscripts for install mp-fremantle-002-pr...

don't force it...

I had problem with hildon-initscripts.
do it:
1. open x-terminal
2. sudo gainroot (you need rootsh package installed)
3. dpkg -s dpkg -s hildon-initscripts | grep Vers
it should be "Version: 1.26-1+0m5"
I had : "Version: 1.26-1+dp1"
to fix it you have to downgrade it:
4. apt-get install hildon-initscripts=1.26-1+0m5
5. apt-get upgrade
You should be able to upgrade now....

My Battery seems to charge faster on the Power plug, it was nearly empty and it went to full in a little over an hour, by full i mean the 'green light" showing

Hi,

I would not call the update a fail at all - it has some nice things:

- seems the sgx graphic acc. driver might be improvet
-> much more smooth browser and also multimedia functions
-> Maps also seems quicker in zooming, but might also be placebo effect ...
-> someone checked camera/video? Might have some impact here
as well ..

Sad that there is no official documentation, but nontheless it's nice to get this update! Guess Nokia is now at 4.05 / 5 of what the N900 should be.
