It was in 5 weeks and you should probably compare N900 to N8x and N700 To get picture right. N900 has been big success for Nokia internally. Market and gremlins running around with half brain again show that how little people understand business. This was not device for masses. Developer platform for early adaptors. Sadly Nokia made mistake and advertised it in some European countries as mature device for everyone and right now we are taking some backfire of that here in maemo.org.

ok finally I got my conversation history back. I don't know exactly
what was happing. Maybe it is because I got a sms-message just
after the update but before I tried to restore the conversations.

In the .rtcom-eventlogger directory were my backup.tgz, el.db (with old history)
and el-v1.db (with one new message).
To get my old conversation history back I had to remove (or move away) the el-v1.db
(but don't start the conversation app), restore from backup (this creates a new el-v1.db).
And now all conversations are back :-)

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
Has anyone noticed that when you receive a call on skype it rings a few times and if you don't pick up it drops the call like you have rejected it?

Consequently it won't register as missed call, but rather as received while the person calling you will get a busy or refused message in windows or linux client respectively.

Cellular and gtalk calls don't suffer from the same problem.

Anybody else seeing that?

Same here.

And one more thing: "An Error occured and the Email-Application had to be closed" - this never happend before PR 1.2, saw it accidentally the past few days. Also, sometimes when I open the Mail-App it shows me "there are no folders" for a second.

And there's still the old bug that the Adressor- and Reference-line at my POP-mails still stay empty (works fine with IMAP-Mails)...

Don't know if it was mentioned before in this thread, but some people (including myself) have the issue that emails get deleted from (POP) server, even if the box for letting them stay on server in settings is checked:

Ok this is a strange one but whenever I enable my wifi connection the phone switches to 3g mode and since I am not in a 3g are ruins my cell reception. Its annoying to say the least.

Reflashed fiasco and emmc and this is no longer an issue.

Only cold boots, IIRC. No visible effect though. And, it's not erratic methinks, just very fast?

d) No issues. I'm pretty sure such a showstopper would go unnoticed.

My best guess is you either have something corrupted or ... well, something's corrupted, that's it, my brain stopped.

Try a hard reset first (battery pull AFTER powering down), uninstall some less-than-stable software, see how that goes. If not, I'm afraid it's full reflash for you.

Also, let it sit there a while after reboot. It does stuff right after. For much media, it does stuff for hours. Try a CPU Load Applet, see if it's loaded. Wait for it to die down.



Finally. Next up, re-implementing old S60 bugs.

a) i found that when i change regional settings it wont crash anymore but still cant suscribe i think the service isnt availble in my country
b) still slow after reflash fennec and microb are slow but opera works fine i dont know why
c)works fine after reflash
d)msn(pecan) was the problem

nokia and ovi catalogs wont refresh for some reason but maemo's and extras do

thanks anyway

I can't get my email to work. I am on Tmobile service in the USA. I follow the wizard instructions and got inbox once to fill with messages but couldn't send any out and the inbox did not receive new messages. Deleted the account and redid it but now don't even get to see the inbox! Does anyone have step by step instructions?

They already said solved? Sigh .............

I also have this problem, or sort of.
When using 1.1 I had no problem with contacts that had numbers added in the format of "00463611223344" or "+463611223344", the contact was still showed on incoming calls and in the list of calls. (the network presents the number as "03611223344" on incoming calls)

After the update the contacts doesnt show, neither on incoming calls, outgoing calls, the call list.
If I call a contact, the contact wont show up in the calls list, only the number of the contact, in the exact form as in the contact.

I've heard more people having this problem, so I dont think that me and ahmoda are the only ones with problems with the contacts after updating to PR1.2.

if i hold my N9 in the hand and move is to the side and backward suddenly the Phone App comes up sometimes in Portrait sometimes in Landscape ..why this? it takes a while and its not reproduceable anytimes but it happens!! Can anybody else proove this behaviour?

best regards crown

I can't reproduce this. What's the setting you have for turning control for the phone application? There are two settings, one allows turning to start the phone app, the other is to enable portrait mode.

Let's say you go in the contacts applications, click the top menu, then select Settings, you'd see the menu pop from the bottom with Settings as a title but all the buttons / check box bellow would not be there. All you'd see is as if it was all transparent and thus still see the contacts through!

Could be theme related though, can you reproduce this with the default theme?

100,000 was actually in 5 weeks and wtf has the cost of an N900 got to do with the cost of an IPad ?? :rolleyes:

As for a success it's. It's a success with me it's a boss smartphone/device doing everything it's master wants it to :p Also no bugs apparent here post PR1.2 update via flasher 3.5 so feel for those having real bugs.

Every software update and every software in general will have bugs. Some related to the software itself and others deal with developments that were relatively unforeseen. Overall, I remain very satisfied with PR 1.2.

Yes, but some software tends to become stable and, in this case, it looks like that the number of bugs increases with time.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I have a problem related to Modest and the Check Names option.

Before PR1.2 I could write a partial e-mail address in the To: field and Modest would search the contact automagically.

Now, this functionality still works but not as well as before. Now if fails to find contacts it could find before.

For example I have a contact with an adress similar to jsmith@server.com.

Before I wrote jsmith in the To: field and Modest would pick the complete address. Now, this doest not work with many contacts. Which is frustrating.

My N900 with PR 1.2 is more laggy and slower than 1.1.1. Do you guys think i should reflash my phone (I reflashed it, didn't update OTA) or is it suppose to be like that?

PS Radio FM is gone too, It's definitely a problem with the activation of the chip (kernel related?)

My brother got a replacement phone and we upgraded directly to 1.2 and theres no option to choose enable fm-transmittter anywhere. Because its a new phone we never checked if there was option to choose fm-transmitting in 1.1, why should we? We didn't know the problem even existed til now!

So what should we do? Reflash the phone or does this solve the problem. Returning the phone is not really an option. And no the phone is not greek. It should be swedish.

Anyone else had this experiens with 1.2?

Two things that I have noticed:

1) Harder to read small font on browser.
2) Double tapping to zoom on browser is not working as well as it used to. For example, talk.maemo.org and other forums it doesn't zoome to the width of replies. This is super annoying, because it worked so well before and I use it all the time.

Re: Maemo 5 PR1.2: Bugs
 
I am using GPE calendar and since upgrading, cannot enter appointments at 11:xx or 12:xx anymore, as the last digit entered in the hour-field is automatically followed by a space. Not an issue with hours 00 through 09 because the calendar accepts a single digit and a space as valid input as well. 11 and 12 can also be entered by clicking on the clock symbol & scrolling through the hours, so it may seem a small nuisance, but it makes the GPE calendar unusable for my purposes.

The corresponding option (I guess) in Settings -> Text Input -> Insert space after word is not activated and never has been (tried switching it on, on and then off, but no difference).

I'd really appreciate it if someone knows a workaround for this.

I would also like to know what to expect when restoring the backup made before upgrading.
