Hey,

The next revision of OS 2008 is coming. But when? Cast your vote and add to the speculation.

Are you serious?

God, you won't believe the amount of times I've flashed already. I don't think I can stand it again...

ARRGH!!

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I'm a bit of a geek so I don't mind flashing. It's like reinstalling Windows; you hate to do it but you feel better after it's done (if only it wasn't a viral laden closed proprietary operating system I'd be happier :rolleyes: )

Why is there no "I don't care anymore" option?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Is there a rumor of an update soon going around? I havent hear anything.. are there secret beta testers yet?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Mid February









2010

:D

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I voted mid February (this year)... :D

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I don't get this thread unless there is a rumor or other info whats the point in guessing?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Sooner than you would think, later than you would like. :D

Yup, and not-so-secret ones too.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Because nobody likes a stinker. :p :D

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Only people who have power on problems should be excited about this upcoming release... The others (me included) can pass it.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

And I'm not all that convinced the power on problem isn't related to a specific shipment or group that was exposed to moisture in some way and is not software related at all.


As to the original question... I wasn't aware of any mention of an update or release... However, if I was to guess it would depend on when Nokia's next "vacation" is. :)

They only seem to release these things if they can get out of town for a few days afterward. :eek:

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

So that's all they got fixed?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I'm not so bothered about power-on, so much as power usage. Maybe it's because I have lots of RSS feeds, or two jabber accounts + 2 sip accounts, but battery life ain't so good! Oh, for a dynamic clocking utility!

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

wtf? Is that all they are fixing....?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

For serious? What in the world have they been doing since December?

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Of course they weren't working on that fix only.
They're for sure working on improvements or new features (I hope improvements come first).
Or they're busy with the WiMax version.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

why do you use checkboxes instead of radio boxes for a poll ???

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Well, with OS2008 we're supposed not to flash it anymore, but just update through the App Manager :)

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Well, that's how the upgrade process works. Not sure what to tell you. :\

No, this is incorrect.

This feature is on the roadmap for Diablo—OS2009.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Not soon enough.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Diablo, for one.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Ha. Fine, fine.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I get great battery life, around 7 hours of usage with wifi and such. I don't spend 7+ hours on a mobile device in a single day so it gets me through the whole day on a single charge which is great.

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

I wish they eventually change the name to something other than "Diablo" I dislike any reference to the Devil.....:eek:

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

Hmm... looks like they fixed bug #2513 too... That's a bonus! :D

EDIT: I take this back... after a little use the bug is back! :mad:

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

O wow. Yeah, way to take on the core issues first.

EDIT: Figures...

Re: Next OS 2008 Release Date
 

These winds occur in different seasons so maybe there's some hint about the release times...
