The Nokia site writes about version 5.2006.13-17 (April 18, 2006) but once you type in the Product ID and get to the download page, it writes about Nokia_770_SE2005_5_2006_13_7.bin and in fact that is the file we can download. I guess "17" was a mistype.
How long does the Windows update take? The progress bar has been on 10% for quite some time...
I didn't time my update, but I would guess it took about 2-3 minutes in total. The progress bar moved smoothly during that time, so if you're stuck on 10% then I would imagine you have "encountered a problem".
It seems more stable, but still not quite stable enough - already had one crash.
The "buffering" window which appears when loading a new MP3 in the Audio Player now doesn't grab focus or get displayed if the Audio Player doesn't have focus, which is good as it often got in the way of web browsing using the navigation wheel.
They STILL haven't enabled sending the HTTP_REFERRER field by default in opera!
Is it me, but is root-enabled mode slower than normal mode? I used it for the first time after flashing. Once I've done my twiddling I might switch R&D mode off.
Spooky seeing the it was Andrew Flegg who wrote and hosts the Nokia 770 version of Vim - his bleb.org TV listings site is incredibly useful. Andrew, if you're reading this, do you know where I can download Vim from whilst you're recovering the bleb.org site? I foolishly didn't keep a local copy, and editing config files using cat and sed is a painful experience
After a few hours' use, I can't see any show-stoppers yet. Will know more after a few weeks' use, of course.
Thanks gusgriller, doing it now second time and it does go smoothly. The detection of the Nokia as an Update Device might have interrupted the process??
