dont stoop to the lowest common denominator. people who cant be bothered reading more than the app name should be happy that they're merely getting something slightly different than expected rather than a total nuke!

on that note i have considered making an app called "really cool app!!!" or "download this!!!" (they like exclamation marks these kinda people!!!) and filling the description with "this applications sole purpose is to completely and irrevocably brick your n900 upon installation, only reccommended if your last remaining use for your n900 is as a doorstop or projectile weapon." obviously o wouldn't upload a virus etc, just a hello world with "u are a complete spoon" or something,
just to see how many people will actually install it.

Attila77 WHAT HAVE YOU DONE :P

Just keep in mind all the flash websites that trying internally recognize your TRUE flash player version will fail (included my Flaemo project that I am still working on and Device manager is the most important part of it in order to recognize your device and launch proper version)

You could use Attila77 Flash Launcher and set swf file as source and you could avoid invalid HTML tag that required 10 even if doesn't. So list of the websites you can see using that and you couldn't before using Flash Launcher or just calling file.swf is presented below:
















Attila77 you are owe me Flaemo launcher :P

Hey, could anyone tell me the risk of using this?
I know about extras-devel and how it can brick xD but reading about how it backs up the old version, I am thinking about giving it a try.

If unsuccesfull or very unstable, how to restore to original flash settings?

Ty in advance, amazing project!

It’s fairly brick-proof, and it really tries to double-check everything before committing to touching system files. You can always return to the original version by choosing it from the available versions option.

PS If you wait a few hours, you’ll get a version that has real restore built-in.
