Please add the option to disable the Swype info bubbles that forever pop up as a "gentle reminder" about how it "ought to be used". They are both irritating and often even inappropriate.

please help Schturman. my light sensor seems to b dead.
SOLUTION(?): I had the same issue and there is a workaround/solution that has stopped this from happening for me.

So when this happens (and it has happened since the earliest days of the N9, before N9QuickTweaks even, and apparently has many different causes), I usually have to hold down the power button for about 10 seconds to reboot, since you can't see anything once the screen goes black.

Once you hard reboot by holding down your power button for around 10 seconds, go to Settings and you'll notice that the light bar is all the way to the left. Shift it a little to the right. Open up N9QuickTweak and apply tweak BB option to Disable Automatic Brightness. Now, I do not use the BB option to control screen blanking; instead I use the FREE app called "Wake" in the OVI/Nokia store.

I hope that this helps.

This issue is caused because somehow, there is a screen setting that gets set to zero under certain circumstances. It can be any number of circumstances, many having to do with tweaks, displays, phone-ui's, etc., but no one has figured out all possible causes, so far as I know. Since the setting goes to zero when you are on a call and hold the phone close to your face, that is one triggering event. Someone did find the exact file and value that was being reset to zero once, but I can't remember which thread it was. But don't let that stop you from tweaking your device, just realize that when you are using a new tweak the issue may come back up. Just get the phone tweaked like you want it, then re-apply this approach and the problem goes away (at least for me).

Good luck.

Okay, if you activate the normal speaker function while talking, then the screen proximity sensor doesn't turn the screen off. Have you tried that? Have you tried an app called 'Speaker Switcher'? It automates the activation of the proximity sensor with the speaker phone option and may help. Have you contacted your seller to find out where the phone is from? Unless you bought VERY early, it should still be under warranty somewhere. And, even if you have to pay Nokia care to fix it, it may be less than replacement costs.

Let us know if any of this helps. Sorry your phone dropped.

It will rotate many apps, like settings app. This is VERY usefull especially for N950 users.

Please use the last 2 files on Vesuri's own website:
http://vesuri.jormas.com/harmattan/libmeegotouch.html

This one needs inceptopn:
libmeegotouchcore0_0.25.10-1+0m8_armel.deb

You can install this without inception
meegotouchtheme-landscape_0.1.1-1_all.deb

Needs a reboot after installing.
I don't know why, but i can't download this two files..
Also, in this tread i saw another one file (patch), we also need this for tweak?

Schturman, i just checked the download works...anyway all the 3 files mentioned in the page can be downloaded from my dropbox: http://db.tt/dO5ay9R0


AFAIK you have to install the libmeegotouchcore0.deb file first before applying the patch...

Yes, probably its blocked in my work network..
But i don't understand, we need all 3 files or its enough 2 like HtheB wrote here?
And what exactly the order of installation and uninstallation ?
Install:
1. libmeegotouchcore0 - via Inception
2. Patch - via patch like we Do this in Drive app
3. landscape deb file

Uninstall:
1. Landscape file
2. patch - how to revert this? which files to backup? I will check this file two.
3. Reinstalling libmeegotouchcore0 with original one

i'm right?
