unable to install
 
Hi Guys

I recently got my n900, I've had it for a few days
but then it wouldn't find any of my music or vid's any more.
I tried all I could think of to fix it but nothing worked,
so i reflashed.
which worked but now i can't install any apps any more which is really anoying!

and the media player still wont keep my music for more than a reboot before it loses it all again. and never finds it again.

does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

John

sorry no, it's not just nokia apps.

but i few apps do install thought its weird.

reflashing hasn't worked either.

Try this:
Go to the x-terminal and type
Quote:

apt-cache search [program name]
where program name is the program you are trying to install. If the program shows, do the following:
Quote:

sudo rootgain
then enter. This gives you access to install program on the phone.

Then
Quote:

apt-get install [program name]
If you get an error following this process, let us know of the error message by posting it here-- if possible, post the screen short.
