my phone is running a malaysian variant; 059J238...once i plugged it into nokia suite, it got updated on the day of release itself...try that..

however, a clean reflash is the best solution as when nokia suite does a backup and restore to update the firmware, it may restore application data without restoring the apps so you will be clogging up the application data memory...

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Tried NSU, OTA and Nokia Suite. Phone is up to date.
Downloading file to flash. Hopefully I don't botch the flash.
Nokia Care service here really really sucks

Re: The Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I agree that the comparison is not 100% fair, but at the end of the day I compare things that matter to me - let me emphasise that I do agree with the fact that PR1.3 should have brought more features (e.g., copy+paste in email, which is important at least for me, among other smaller things).

iOS -in my opinion, and given the amount of resources that Apple has these days- should have provided more. In my case, iOS 4->5 made the phone worse -much worse-, e.g., battery life to less than 50% of what it used to be (and it used to be bad to begin with) among other things. iOS 5 didn't include Siri for 4, only for 4s (so, they want you to get another phone). iOS6 will bring... basic renewed maps and some minor fixes here and there for 4 (as far as I can remember), the rest of the features for 4s. Also, I expect a very buggy maps with iOS, but I'm glad it's no longer gmaps.
All in all, the *only* "feature" I use the most of iOS5 is the "swipe to delete" emails. That's about it.

If you want me to make another comparison, then allow me: remember how crappy was the very first iteration of iOS? I think Nokia has done a lot better, considering that Harmattan is the first iteration of the Swipe UI.
I do think that Nokia supported N9 users way better than Apple does. And don't get me started with Android ;-)

Anyway, apologies about the OT - perhaps it's fueled by the fact that Nokia is ditching all further development on this platform, and I feel a little bit like when IBM's OS/2 was ditched (for those who used it and considered far better than Windows, you will understand ;-) ).

For reference, I use an iPhone 4 for business use, my N9 for personal use and lastly a Hawei (or however is spelt) modem for business use. More often than not, the N9 has the best reception; and I've just given up using the iPhone for things like checking train times and the like as the browser is just unacceptable, I very rarely use gmaps, even when abroad, I just find it better to use Nokia Maps. YMMV, of course, especially if you use Twitter/Facebook, perhaps the experience is better in the iPhone.

Maybe something jammed when i tried updating thru NSU,guess ill just try again if still no OTA notification later.Nokia care is good in this country,but when i called,they just told me to just try to check the update on the phone,maybe i just cant wait lol.:D

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I also have the Malaysian variant black 16GB, but when I checked navifirm there is not PR1.3 update for the black 16GB model. The PR1.3 is out for the magenta,cyan,white and black 64GB. Anyone know why the black 16GB is left out?

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

not all regions have received the pr1.3 update yet...just use the 64GB variant to flash...there is no issue...or use another country's 16GB variant...

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

if you really can't wait, just download the firmware image for 64GB, it should be the same. Back in PR1.1, I used NSU to flash my phone (Black 64GB) and my sister's (Black 16GB), and they both are using the same firmware
but seriously, I would wait for OTA as PR1.2 is actually OK'ish

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I'm not in a rush to get PR1.3, I'm just curious as to why the other colors have 1.3 but not black. Seems kinda odd.

Re: N9 PR1.3 by end of May'12
 

Lol, It might be a trick to finally Kill the N9, Elop is like, this is going to far, Lets release a Trojan horse Update.

after a few months, the phone Just starts having Reboot cycles etc...
Like what happened to me with Sony ericsson

I tend to be weary of updates now, after updating my messenger only to find that, they had put an Advert window in there, which ii could not close, Goodness,goodness.

Personally i don't think this update will bring anything GOOD, as N9 was D.O.A already. so now it is beyond Dead in the eyes of nokia. By Oh well.... SO it must be,

Re: The Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

i just saw the same problem today... Did anyone devise a fix for it ? i updated with OTA, do people who have flashed see this error?

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

No way to read comments on store.
Product code changed with NSS Pro, and update with NSU.

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

OK, I apologize in advance if I am asking a question that has been answered. I did look for the solution, but couldn't find it.

I updated my N9 to PR 1.3 a few days ago using Nokia Suite and now I can't get my N9 to connect to my home wireless router. I can connect to T-Mobile 3G no problem, and I can even use the wifi hotspot app to tether the N9 to my laptop. But the N9 will not connect to my router. I have entered the WPA key very carefully and am sure it is not a type-o causing the problem. I have also deleted the connection from the N9 and re-entered it.

I am not fluent in Linux or MeeGo, so please tell me in English what I have done wrong and/or how to fix it. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Is it just mine or is the bluetooth worse now than before? It's lagging alot using my Nokia play 360.. Any know about or heard of it??

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I can confirm that I'm also having a prob with the store and comments... but still can say that PR1.3 is a heckuva lot better than PR1.2 ever was for me. Seems snappier, battery is lasting all day.

Bluetooth at the same time as wifi is a serious prob - sound stutters like no other still.

Talking about bluetooth, I thought the N9 had Bluetooth 4.0?

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I'm pretty sure I had a problem with store and comments with 1.2 and still have it with 1.3. Rule of thumb: the Store sucks.

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

can't agree more on this :D

Re: The Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Comments in store are broken even before PR1.3 Nokia had acknowledged the issue and say they are working to fix it. No ETR though.

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

4th day with mine, nothing beats a combination of PR.1.3 + Drop Cache + Faster N9. Wish I could let others test my phone right now, Idle is standing on 8mA right, hasn't gone past 30 yet, wireless is on, Facebook set to available, Wazapp on, 3 emails set at 30min refresh, feeds @ 1 hour. Simply loving it. Not sure if it's related to PR.1.3 but as others mentioned, I also can't view comments in Store. Messaging Malfunction is still there too. But both aren't really a train smash. Now all I need is the real Tapatalk, Skype Video Calls then I'll be happy.

See below:

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I have the exact same problem!

PR1.2 idle + 2g = 4mA consumption
PR1.3 idle + 2g = 7mA consumption


i dont know what changed, but i would really like the phone to consume like before in idle
Can someone with vanilla PR1.3 confirm this?

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

The titles just keep more awesome.

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I personally consider anything less than 40mA very good, having less than 10mA is just unbelievable for me, since I use 3G on the move and Wifi in-house.

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

PR 1.3, Drop Cache, FasterN9.

Yes, BT seems to have degraded :(

All in all, it's still an unfinished product and I can't elevate it to #1 du to lack of a "full" WhatsApp client (no media support).

Actually, quite a mess of a product and overall you can see why iOS is a better alternative. Still like it though ;)

Guys and girl. Elvis has just left the building. I just received the update.

Sensational!

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Why PR1.2xxxxx_454 not received update?

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Hi everyone! I just reformatted my phone. When I tried to install drop cache it says that the download has failed and in the menu it's showing a red icon with (!) which belongs to the said application. Any help for this?

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

the tittle getting longer..lmao

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I say it could've been worse without Wazapp and all the guys in this Community. Am not trading this phone for just a couple of Missing Vital Apps, the ones I need the most I have. I still think eventually the missing ones will become available.

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

True...
this community has been providing us with some serious software over the last year, thumbs up...
if I only had Shazam/Soundhound or Eyrie working similarly and some wifi-based remote control app for my home theater devices I´d be levitating:D

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Somebody earlier that Facebook Notifications show instantly even when U've set up 10min intervals. I've just noticed something similar, but with Email instead, could be a coincidence but I just received an email before the set 30min interval expired.... Interesting

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

OP, why don't you change the thread title to "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread", already? :)

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

I didn't get my weekly email about this thread because of it's (now) crazy title.
Can we please tone the thread title down a bit please Dave/mods?

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Just ran the app manager / updates check on my Philippines 64GB Black. PR 1.3 is now there for OTA. :D

Re: The Hyper Fantastic Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Yep, Philippines is finally getting PR1.3. Southeast Asia is probably the last region to get it. Updating now... :-)

Re: The Super Awesome Über Mega Epic N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

NS doesn't have that ability, it's still beta for the N9, it may come it may never, follow the N9 NS thread at betalabs.
Most personal data is retained if you flash or update via NS/NSU, except apps & some settings.
Nokia Store client remembers the apps you've dloaded/paid for, so you can re-download them via it.
Sometimes free apps may have since become paid, in which case, bad luck I guess.
Follow this guide to flash if you don't want to wait for the OTA, especially if you've side-loaded or applied tweaks/hacks.
Updating via latest beta NS or NSU is another approach, I can't recall OTTOMH but I think it's more-or-less the same as a standard flash.
But IMO it's best just to do a flash, you don't know what weird stuff NS/NSU may be trying to do, it's not fully optimised for the N9 yet.

1.1 wasn't what 1.0 should've been, it added features in it's own right, more so than 1.3, but yes it was primarily a bug-fix release.
And I don't think it's fair to be making comparisons PERIOD....
These updates have been delivered by a team that's been downsized almost 100% now (90%+ last I checked) over the course of 17mth, most of that in the last 9mth.

And PLENTY of L800 users are still very unhappy with performance.
No shortage of them out there complaining the improvements did squat for them.

Good to see there's users whose battery perf. hasn't gotten worse in any meaningful way, same here.
You rarely do hear from people if things are working as they should, tis refreshing :)

Has nothing to do with PR1.3, that's been a problem since before the update came out.
It's an issue with the store itself, which they haven't fixed for weeks now.

Never came :( See my Sig for the bug report, I was going to update it with much more detail, still haven't gotten round to it. :o
They were very close to implementing, but was one of those features they had to leave half-finished, because not enough time/resources.

I wonder how much a of a mess iOS would've been in it's 1st year if it tried to add half as much functionality as Maemo 6x.
Whilst resources for the dev team were being downscaled massively at the same time. ;)

Great, now can you please stop ****ing with the thread title, k tnx ;)
Srsly, it's affecting email delivery of weekly subscriptions to the thread.

Read this post, then you will learn several interesting facts:

Apparently the web-based version of soundhound (midomi?) works well in the browser.
Wouldn't know as I personally dont care about soundhound or similar apps.
Plus soundhound themselves keep saying they do want to release an app but can't say when.
But they've been saying that for waaay too long to be believable any more...

Coulda sworn there's at least one app like that....

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

Discover a bug already, no longer able to able to play certain mp4 file downloaded via flash players properly on video player. Play for about 10 seconds and it will pop up the message, you can't play this type of files on this devices, no idea why it does that as it played just fine previously on PR 1.2. I am getting annoyed by this real quick.

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

That has been reported as far back as 1.2, at least.
I've had it happen on 1.2, usually only intermittent...
Fixes/features & bugs/regressions are meant to go here:

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

that's strange, the same clip seemed to work on my device back when I was using PR 1.2

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

"Country Variants" for nordic countries are now appearing on Navifirm.

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

So finally I've been tired of waiting and flashed pr 1.3 to my phone. After spending hours to get back all my apps and playing with it for a day, my impressions are:

- it seems a little bit faster, although not as fast as pr 1.2 + fastern9 (example: try loading a webpage, swipe it away, go to your main screen / notification screen and try to move around - for my there was an unpleasant shuttering), installing faster n9 on pr 1.3 makes it better

- 3G/2G connectivity improved + webpages load faster

- Ovi store was much faster when downloading and installing apps

- contrary to what I've read before, when I move my icons/folders around I still to have confirm it with "done" rather then just tap wherever to finish

- the tendency of my screen to get "reddish" in bright daylight vanished (previously the "white balance" was normal in low/medium light conditions and when I got outside on a sunny day it seemed to try to increase it's brightness and it would turn really reddish - to clarify, I always set my screen to maximum brightness, but this only happened in bright sun) nope, my bad - this annoying thing is still there...

- haptic feedback of keyboards (both stock and swype) is improved, still stock seems more responsive than swype when typing

- it's harder to unintentionally "click" on your notification screen and be moved to facebook or sth - big +

Otherwise, everything seems business as usual.

Re: The Tiny N9 PR1.3 Discussion Thread!
 

So far I have been trough 3 cycles of charging/discharging my N9 since PR1.3 - I notice improvement in power consumption. All 3 times I got to 48 hours, without even PSM mode been engaged at 10% battery level. So phone probably will go over 55 hours autonomity.
This is with always on Wi-Fi/2G, 3xIMAP always up-to-date, 10-20 emails/daily(read+write), 20 SMS's (received+send), 1.0-1.5 hours of browsing/twitter daily.
