I installed the file - gonna test it for a week or so & report.
First Impression: it look much better.

I prefer the ETA line to stay fix like u did it before.

U give a new life to the old N900.

I want it too, but the price of fix ETA line in realestate is minor,
espacially when you got so much new free space.
I saw that in latest android version te ETA line has changed so ETA time is always shown.

what I noticed so far:
- report button not exist in portrait mode from time to time.
- sometimes the app rotate 90/180/270 deegrees.

SOLVED: it was CSSU configured to force rotate.
- voice disappear from time to time.
- map still blinking.
- is it possible to separate close&minimize buttons ?
I found myself clicking the wrong one - it can be placed in next-street label corners.

Hi
one another request... The green squares on the left side, it's too hard to see the white text. Can you please change the text color to black ?
Thanks

I tried but it doesn't look quite readable on a small screen, so I am not sure it is a good idea...
If anyone think I'm wrong about it - I will add it, but for that atleast 3 ppl will have to "vote" about it.

After a week or so of navigating with the new UI on N900:

It is amazing how the app is stable comparing to android version.
Seems that most of the UI issues have been treated.
thing that still have to be take care:
- App start with small resolution - turning the phone twice (portrait-->landscape) solved it.
- Map blinking - not all the app, just the map.
- I think fix ETA time is nessecery, but i'm not the only user.

I hope U'll have time to deal with it.
