The automated, similar thread search during new thread creation had little chance of finding this existing thread. And the longer, descriptive title should draw more attention, alerting other users to the problem.

First of all people should read sometime things calling "Terms and Conditions". And i got to say not a pleasant thing. I think if people pay more attention to that in all the products that they buy probably most of them will think twice before buying anything especial concerning technology and communication devices.
So i flashed my phone the good news is that rootsf jumped from 74 to 92Mb. But the bad news i still getting that failed message. Although i did unsubscribe from nokia.com/mynokia as i posted in a previous post.

Nokia you owe me one dollar for messages that i didnt ask
and stop invading my privacy !

I think this a BIG issue, no the one to make jokes...
I don't care about their "Terms & Conditions", if they abuse on them, they are invalid, at least here, in Spain.

Regards to all.

PS: Personally... that only a few who are regulars to this forum showed great concern over this... makes me feel great embarrassment.
We have the world we deserve...

I am sure the fanbois are concerned about this issue as much as anyone. They just can't say it.

You didn't read them when downloading ? Shame, since otherwise you would known that by downloading you agreed those terms and thus gave permission for data collecting.

And on Software agreement; software is provided as it is. If automatic registration is part of PR1.2, then you either accept that or you won't upgrade, simple as it is.
Would you mind if your N900 after the upgrade started mass sending of premium SMSes leaving you with a bill of several thousand Euro?

Don't forget that some of us never saw any T&Cs to accept.

That wasn't the original subject.

You're right, the original title included "PR1.2".
