i cannot update cssu.it says you need to connect via pc with pc suite to update this.? what to do?
I did back up with the maemo backuptool. but when it was almost finished, the n900 went into a boot loop. it was end of the story.
I had to reflash the kernel to get it on again
For all using the flasher to enable R&D mode; it doesn't work OOTB with BackupMenu installed. When BackupMenu is installed, you cannot enter the update mode, because with an open keyboard BM is loaded. You have to slide to keyboard open just enough to reach the 'u' key, but NOT until it slides into the final position. I've read this here somewhere, and it helped me today.
Btw: i was not able to use the root shell from backup menu, could not logon as root or user because every time BM did something else/ the main menu kept coming back. But enabling USB networking / sshd from within BackupMenu and connecting from an openSuSE box with the quick and dirty / one-time USB settings did the trick.
You just do as you use to, the problem is that hildon-desktop crashes but hildon-status-menu is working so you can get statusmenu to connect to your network as you usually do. Then you connect with putty and change the gconf value switch off phone and use flasher to get it back into production mode.
Sometimes it might be buggy and you get old window views or something blocking the statusarea just reboot and be sure to just click the statusarea only and it should work just fine.
Thank You one more time!
It worked for me after a few times!
I cant update to 16 so i decided to uninstall and install CSSU again, but it always failed to download 1 package. I think it's the "libwildmidi0_0.2.2-2maemi1." I tried to install it but it says "couldn't find the packag." Now, I got diffirent UI for camera, portrait mode in apps menu, on multitasking view, and more. I also got a problem with "resolving host timed out: downloads.maemo.nokia.com" on 3 catalogs. The "nokia applications," "nokia system software updates," and "ovi." What could be the problem with this. I can't successfully install CSSU on my phone. Btw, The "maemo CSSU about" isn't showing up in settings.
I pinned the currently installed version in fapman so that i do not get the update notification for it. You experienced too that the update for libeet1 cannot be installed because of unmet dependencies.
