Offline or turn off @ night??
 

Just wondering, at night do you turn your n900 off or just turn it to offline or just leave it on as normal?
I usually set mine to offline, but last night i just turned it off. This morning i re-started phone and it made it to the desktop, with the clock and battery and 2g signal showing then it rebooted which it did for a further 3 times before i intervened.

I don't know if this had anything to do with installing a microsd yesterday, but i'm glad i did as i'd backed up with RobbieThe1st BackupMenu V2 - OS backup & restore and was able to restore with this and now seems to be ok, until tonight if i turn off again??

I had also updated theme customizer, calendar home widget and one of the icon packs yesterday.

i have since restarted no problems a couple of times today

I leave it running all day and night (at night its plugged in and charging). Only occasionally restart it when I install something/mod something or randomly cause I feel like it :p.

i'd just got a new replacement battery for it (Japod) and was trying to 'condition' it' tbh though i don't know wether you still need to do that with the newer batteries, that's the reason why i'd turned it off.

I just leave mine as normal since my sleep patterns are unpredictible. When my tablet gets low on battery I just put in a fully charged one.

Robbie's Backupmenu is probably the best improvement to the N900, right up there with 9 screens and Desktop-switcher.

It's brilliant and so simple to use and it saves a shed load of time and patience

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

i leave it charging all night
and it's on

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

i turn mine off of a night, never experienced problems when turning it on though

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I've never bothered much with conditioning, and I have Japod as well as Mugen batteries. All I do is for the first week or so when I'm using them I use them from full charge to empty without recharging midway. That makes sense to me and seems to work ok.

Judging by my new battery my old one was on it's arse(technical term)
@ xRobby hopefully this was a one off, as sebsequent restarts have been fine. :)
@ geneven i'm following the same process as you with the charging
:)

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

Can't be done. If I turned it off, I'd never remember to turn it back on.

Lol @ volt

The N900 has an off switch? :-)

I guess I've had mine about a year, I don't think it's been turned off for more than an hour in total during the entire time.

I'm not the kind of guy that gets offended if someone calls me at 3am anyway, and I'm happy to let a text message go unread for several hours if I don't feel like being interrupted.

Offline or turn off? Neither. I leave mine turned on and plugged in to the charger overnight. The original Nokia battery costs about $15 to replace so it's no big loss if it dies.

I charge mine while at work and using it (web, radio, surf during the day). I leave it on at night but not plugged in. No problems with battery this way.

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I leave mine on always. It doubles as an alarm clock for me. I simply created a nighttime profile with profilesx (no sound except for calls and alarms) and set up alarmed to switch to it automatically. I usually charge in the car going to work or at the office. If needed, I'll charge it overnight.

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

Cheers for everyones replies looks like the majority leaves them turned on :)

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I run mine all night, charging and half-stuck under my pillow running sleep analyzer. I'm still trying to figure out how to have sleep analyzer trigger evil alarm though :D

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I have mine switched to offline & silent at night using alarmed

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I keep mine charging and on while I sleep.

I keep mine charging and on while I am at work.

I keep mine charging and on while I am in the car.

I hope that my journeys into charger-free areas last fewer than 5 hours.

lol lol brilliant get a long extension cable for those longer journies lol

Re: Offline or turn off @ night??
 

I keep mine switched online at night. You never know when these booty calls are gonna come in.

(well I can dream, right?)
