Downloaded the upgrade, backed up my stuff then flashed and restored.
Opera is faster in some areas, and I can now read my http://tuxmagazine.com/ pdf's. But the newsreader got messed up somewhere. I haven't tried the email function, and have not had problems with wireless connection.

Still no WEP w/chap support though :(

When I get some time I'll try to flash and skip the restore as that helped fix some weird issues last time.

Why can I 'sudo gainroot' and su to root without having enabled R&D mode on the new image? My machine was in R&D mode before the flash.

*edit: It still is. I guess those flags are stored in NVRAM or something.

Found one big bug
 

It no longer works with the T-mobile packet data service. Which means I can't use my phone as a modem. Back to the store it goes I guess :-P hope it's still in the return period...

I just noticed I have the time bug too, and I downloaded this all off of their website? Pretty PISS POOR programing on Nokia's part, they should fire their SW director.

Hmm.. I tried that update out. It's awesome! Greatly enhanced the browsing experience and the overall performance of the device. I think this is what it's for. Comeon people. Don't blame about whatever clock glitches... Things will be straighten up soon. Who cares about the clock!

Why not just downgrade the software. You can still find (last I checked) the older version of the software at the Nokia USA site. No one says you have to upgrade and stay upgraded.

Agreed that it is running alot better overall but how long to wait until Nokia fix the clock? I would have thought they would have done this straight away to save face on the matter. Sure its a small thing but it shows flaws in their QC.

Update went smoothly for me.

A lot of the issues people are having with their Nokia 770 being flaky after flashing can be solved by taking the battery out for 10 seconds, then reflashing, then restoring settings...

I've noticed that generally, if my Nokia 770 is behaving weirdly, taking the battery out for 10 seconds and rebooting fixes the problem!

Your mileage may vary :)

I've got one question about the clock. I've been wondering this for a while but I finally feel like enough of a dick to just say it.

If the clock is 3 hours off, can't you set the clock 3 hours behind so it all evens out?

(I'm either a genius or an arse.)

Tank: The battery's the root of voodoo troubleshooting in that thing... I've had to pop it lots and it *does* always seem to fix the problem du jour. Must be poweerd by gremlins or something. (Hope Gilman's treatin ya well!)

Must be you - works for me. I did notice they took away the T-mobile VPN selection from the menu, but if you edit the settings to change the server name it works.

(ok, that's T-mobile VPN service in NW Oregon)
