I am trying to use my StraightTalk.com phone (Samsung R451C) with my N800...to link with the internet. I can get the two to do the bluetooth "pairing"...but that is all. Nothing after that...any ideas?

Seems that said phone is missing the PAN and DUN profiles:

Either of those are needed for the N800 to use the phone for net connection.

My new battery life is abysmal (24-36 hours in standby), but I am also consistently dropping my internet connection during periods of inactivity. It made me wonder if my wifi is sapping the battery. I ran in offline mode and didn't notice any difference in battery life.

So then I wondered if my N800 might benefit from a reinstall. It's been so long since I installed Diablo that I doubt if I remember how to do it.

A question for the collective is "how often do YOU reinstall your OS on your N800"?

I have not done any re-flashing of the OS since installing the community OS version 5.2010.33-1. As far as my battery life, I use my N800 "off the charger" every night for 8 hours, then plug it in to charge over night. It stays on the charger throughout the day connected to WiFi.

There's so many different plug-ins and preferences, it has me all confused.

The only plug-in I've installed so far is Qwerty's LED Notification one.

Thanks!
@ addison - these days I seldom use pidgin because my company began blocking yahoo and google chat. Now I use Skype to chat and Google Voice to send free text to cell phones. Since I have used it alot, let me know if you have a specific problem in getting it to work.

Finally got my Gizmo account to work with my RTCOMM. transmitted sound is a choppy over 3G but it works. I may never use my cell phone when WIFI is available!

Now only if RTCOMM would work with Yahoo.

In other news I may go and get an 810 since I would appreciate a screen I can see in sunlight (for when I do my road trips).

Hey Den.

No troubles at all with Pidgin. It's just that there's so many plugins available and wanted to know if any of them are needed.

@Addison
Seriously that extra stereo plugin (included with XMMS) and voice removal plugin work pretty well.

For Pidgin I use:
* autoaccept
* buddy state notification
* history
* message notification
* n800 led plugin (BLINK on laptop)
* psychic mode
* purple-shout
* send button (should be built-in the maemo build)
* offline message emulation (not needed on new builds of pidgin)

and I occasionally play around with other ones.

on topic of pidgin, anyone had issues with incoming messages opening windows that do not show on the "taskbar"?
