How many updates did they do for the N800?

Look here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maemo#Release_history

They used to release new versions a lot more often in the old days.

more minor updates..............

i reckon that nokia should have frequent updates fixing fewer number of bugs at one time, instead of having a big-ish update fixing higher number of bugs at one time. :)

And I wish that we - as a modding and developing community - could make and distribute bugfixes by ourselves...
Could've been nice, not needing to wait for nokia to patch things up once in 6 months, but I guess this belongs to a more ideal world than the world we're living in ;)

I really hope that flash 10.1 gets into this update since they demoed it about a year ago.

Back then they weren't developing Meego as main dish.

They always had "the next version" cooking somewhere. The only difference may be that the closer we get to "5 of 5", the more consumer actually have the devices in their hands... which makes updating the whole OS a more critical task.

It is currently being done. See MohammadAG's efforts and the Modest fixes we have.

Well.. it seems like we are waiting for the PR1.3 update, and I reckon it will come (my opinion).. But then, hey.. Why get frustrated? Lets just wait till it comes (if it does), and if not then we can think of another solution at that time. There has been no official word on PR1.3 and there hasn't been any word about PR1.3 not coming.

There are more important things going on this world than this PR1.3 update :)

i rather take minor bugfixes than no updates at all.

Why is pr1.4 coming as well?

And it requires Qt 4.7? Given the N8 ships with Qt 4.6 - as does the N900 with PR1.2 - it sounds like you, or "figa"(?), is confused.

HangLoose 2010-10-05 12:48

Re: Firmware 1.3 on its way????
 
Are there any Qt 4.7 apps (that are available for N8 for example) that would work with the N900?

Not without recompiling, no. If you have the source code, then they should be compilable for the N900 (though there may be source code changes needed, depending on how screen-res, etc. has been handled).

See, for example, thp's recent post on the topic: http://thpmaemo.blogspot.com/2010/10...verywhere.html

(But, again, the N8 ships with Qt 4.6)

PR 1.3 is more or less officially confirmed and it is close: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10450#c30

Evgeny Filatov says it is coming in October, possibly in the first 2 weeks:

http://maemos.ru/2010/10/02/nokia-n900-pr-1-3/

And if I understand he hints that maybe even N9 (or whatever MeeGo phone is) might still lack voice turn-by-turn navigation in Ovi Maps...

What fixes? Are these available in a repository? Most people won't use these fixes unless they are available in firmware.

The amount of unofficial tweaks I have to make to a vanilla OS to get a respectable battery uptime is embarrassing, and many times unofficial packages are not easily installable as .deb or break things.

This community could really use something like a PPA like Launchpad uses. Not that it'd solve everything I mentioned though.

Hi Chucky :p

I'm currently beta-testing PR1.3 on my N900, and it feels great !!! I can even switch smoothly to portrait mode while climbing on the pole...

Kisses,

Sassy.

PS : you forgot your latex slave suit last time you came at home.

That's probably visible just because of some incompatibility with something else that you've installed, rather than being any evidence of a new update.
