06:17, 28th May 2010 sjgadsby Thread title (original 'PR1.2 Privacy breach?') changed
See the subtle difference to the original quoted subject title?

It's minor, I know, but important nonetheless.

Now let's get back to discussing the Nokia faux pas.

Also, I'm not clicking anything that says "Stop" "No" or "Cancel" when flashing firmware. Once it's done we discuss.

Have I understood correctly, right now only way to avoid this is not to upgrade to PR1.2 ? Even if I upgrade without SIM-card, after SIM-card is installed, it will send the SMS?

I am sure somewhere in the filesystem is the SMS which is delayed, which can be manually deleted before SIM-card is inserted?

Shouldn't outbox messages expire in like 24 hours? Do they stick around? Does the message show in outbox?

Oh, I have an idea. Set the SMSC to a bad number before re-insering the SIM. That should fix its wagon?

outbox expiring can be configured while sending a message. from 3 hours to "max time" (that comes after 7 days if I remember correctly)

I guess it should be possible o avoid the subscription by pressing on the empty screen area above the popup dialog (as everywhere in maemo5). Haven't tried it though... I have fallen into the trap too by just hitting the "Done" button.

In my opinion the dialog that asks about the subscription really should have "Yes, subscribe" and "No, don't subscribe" buttons instead just the "Done" button and not offering a clear way to refuse the service.

Regarding the error when unsubscribing: I noticed that when pressing th unsubscribe button it sends out the SMS but doesn't disable the button. Pressing it a second time, sends out a second SMS. A few seconds later you get get two replies. One containing the unsubscription confirmation, and a second one containing the error message because you are already unsubscribed. I noticed the successful unsubscribtion only at a closer look.

This clearly shouldn't be the way to go...

I upgraded (OTA) to PR1.2 without a SIM, and did not have a SIM in my N900 since then.

I have a file changed on May 26 12:02, which sounds like the time I upgraded:

/var/spool/sms/regs_out.txt

With content:
Code:
ba212ae1-4bfce3b7-1-/com/nokia/phone/SMS/ba212ae1
The directory /var/spool/sms/outgoing is empty.

I wonder what this means.
