Re: New firmware released! Minor update PR1.0.1 needed for upcoming PR1.1
 

Firmware update worked flawlessly for me here in US @ Connecticut. Also it gave me about 20mb free space in rootfs which is reaaaally nice :) Maemo also runs a little speedier, but not sure if it's actually the firmware or just me. Anyhow it's a great update + working ovi store :))

There is a more real solution - read http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=33429
You can download X-Terminal shell script from http://pastebin.com/f1355fe1f and execute it to find out how much root file space is consumed by each package. But don't try to move files with this script if you don't understand the process - it can be dangerous and difficult to fix.

BTW, the solution "remove applications installed from Extras-devel or Extras-testing" does not work actually - most of them pulls HUGE libraries to root file space and that libraries are NOT automatically removed by application removal. You should target it specifically with red pill ON + careful research of packages dependencies OR use 'dpkg autoremove' from X-Terminal root shell... with some luck...

haha the update added more to the rootfs then it took for me. but then again i had recently reflashed and reinstalled everything so it was at 68 percent. now it's up to 71. oh well.

Starting updating, took forever, then at the end it said "Error Encountered with Nokia Software Updater", then nothing, won't turn on at all now.


I'm really fed up with all this ****. I love the phone, but Nokia needs to realize just because they have something allot of people want releasing a product with the same 'Shitty *** CS and product support' is not going to bump them back up in the cell world.


I've been very reserved up until now with voicing complaints as I didn't have any issues before, probably because I didn't download PC Suite or NSU.

**** it, returning the phone for full refund. Will revisit the product over summer to see if it's gotten any better though I doubt it considering Nokia half the time doesn't know wtf is going on their regions.

updated mine successfully.. didn't see big changes on the phone except the icons and etc... Ovi store is open now too.. just go at store.ovi.com using the browser... and the available apps are all nice...

Re: New firmware released! Minor update PR1.0.1 needed for upcoming PR1.1
 

Well i did say it was the simplest solution. I think you made a good job of verifying that it's also the most real, though: installing -devel packages is asking for trouble if you're not comfortable with the unix filesystem and command line apt tools. As that is common knowledge, it's acceptable to tell users worried about their rootfs to uninstall said apps and leave it at that.

He's talking about windows and file explorer to peep his disk usage...

and you're suggesting a shell script. :D

Hopefully one of the two suggestions will get the job done, but it's a disservice to ordinary users to claim that the "real" usage of the device will require shell scripts and "some luck".

Update also works on my repartitioned (solving the rootfs problem) device like a charm! Hopefully the major update will work like this...

is the bluetooth problem addressed?

Re: New firmware released! Minor update PR1.0.1 needed for upcoming PR1.1
 

I didn't see the update listed in App Manager here (US) until doing the following in X-Terminal:

- sudo gainroot
- apt-get clean
- apt-get update

Then the update appeared, which I ran. Rebooted no problem, but performance lagged between screen-clicks/button-pushes. Another reboot cycle (including battery-removal & re-seating it to un-freeze it) and everything cleared up.

Within an hour of the Maemo update, updates appeared in App Manager for Evernote, Qik, & Foreca.

Will keep my eyes peeled for noticeable changes, but from the 'Details' pain in App Manager, the Maemo update touched about ~40 packages....

Have only recently started using my N900 as a media player on the journey to/from work and can't believe this bug made it through testing - at least, I assume it's a bug and hope it's not "by design" or WONTFIX as it's "too difficult to fix".

Anyway, I suggest you all vote for bug #7837 which I just opened....
