@demolition, what are those UI swiping in from left and right? I cannot find info about them and my MicroB do not react on any swipes, other from standards of course - history and pointer, which reacts only in landscape mode.

idem dito, never reflashed the phone; sometimes came very close, but so far so good !

any possibility of switching from testing to stable release without flashing?

IIRC the swiping function of MicroB is present from the day one you got it, and you can use the swiping function although since the stock N900 has no portrait mode, swiping all the way from one side of the screen to the other is too hasslesome...

You start by putting your finger at one side of the screen and swipe the entire screen to the other. Note that you have to cover the whole screen (as in literally from edge to edge) and not just a portion of it for it to work.

As to what it does, here goes some nifty functions:

• Using your finger and making twirls on the screen: Zoom.
  • Clockwise motion: zoom in.
  • Anti-clockwise: zoom out.
• Swiping the screen from left to right: Brings out a mouse pointer in which if toggled, you can use it to select text. Useful when you have a large body of text you would like to highlight and copy.
• Swiping from right to left: Opens up your browsing history.

Swiping from left to right has never brought out any POINTER for me since i updated to PR 1.3. (even b4 i upgraded to CSSU , kernel 42 then kernel 49. Swiping the other way works though, brings up the browser history..

It works if u pay your attention on putting your finger directly on the Tochscreen (the black 'bar' instead on cover if u are in portrait mode) and swipe from left to right. You could try it with your stylus pen first.

AFAIK there is no way of disable the editing mode in hildon-home (aka desktops/widgets) would be a nice and doable feature tho.

I think cssu team should consider make this editing state configurable via Gconf like the editing mode in the menu (aka hildon-desktop/breaking apmefo and catorise).

demolition:
It wasn't overly clear in the post you quoted but the problem only started when CSSU was updated. Battery still seems to be going okay with current setup.

ed_boner:
Have you tried looking at the battery output from lshal/ /sys entries. AS has been stated already, batteries deteriorate yada.. yada.. Fully charge the device and find the entries for the design charge and current charge which IIRC are in mWh. If you are still getting the 85% reading, compare it to current/design*100.

zzzchainzzz:
Try to aim slightly above the address bar. It works okay but seems quite sensitive as to where you need to swipe.

It is available, just not properly documented..
