Has this feature been included in the current version? It's impressive as-is, but this would make it even more impressive.

I'm not sure how to check for this. If I figure it out, I know I'd have no way of being able to test for it...

Personally, I'd like to see how the normal operator applet does it but I don't have a way for forcing it to do so as my network doesn't show a logo...

Nevertheless, I could do my own implementation of it, I guess.

Thanks for the reply!

Ok so i tried that in X terminal and it read...

rm:invalid option -- /
Busybox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-losso26+0m5) multi-call binary

Usage: rm [option]... FILE...

Is this basically giving me the option to delete the file? If so how would i do that?

Sorry for the noobishness i'm still trying to get my head around the way the OS functions. Any reply or help would be greatly appreciated!

Hiya,

What exactly are you typing?
It should be

Code:

rm -f /home/user/.cache/launch/com.nokia.controlpanel.pvr

exactly. It sounds like you're typing "rm - /home/user/.cache/launch/com.nokia.controlpanel.pvr" (missing the 'f') but I can't be certain.

I guess one crude way would be to grab the current operator name text when the widget is first installed, then compare that text with the current operator name periodically. You would probably need to allow the user to edit this text, in case they weren't in their home area when they first installed the widget, or if their operator name changes.

Hopefully somebody a little more knowledgeable will chime in with exact details but I believe the phone itself can tell when it is roaming or not (via signal from network operator maybe?) because on almost all phones you can turn off certain features when roaming. e.g. mms retrieval and data connections

can you work on this app to port multilanguage?

I can translate all voice in italian Language if you want

The name of the apps for example could be translate in "Nome del Gestore telefonico" or "Personaliz. Nome Gestore telefonico".

thanks thousand and compliments for the Great Apps!

Hiya!

I dont mean to try a beat a dead horse but...

Since PR1.2, the data counter now separates the home network data from the roaming data.
This means that the N900 is able to identify when it is roaming or not (somehow).

Therefore I would like to renew my request for having the option to set the custom operator name to show only while one is on their home network as I feel it would help several people out.

Thanks

I'm not sure if this is the right place or if it has been suggested before, but it would be nice if it could display the IM status message

I'm often on roaming and with this app I don't know if I am already on different operator network. Would it be possible to ad a turn on turn off button in the app? the option with displaying the tuned name only on home network as you wrote would be difficoult so just turning the app off for a while would help me a lot!
