Ok I found how to manually flash it. But the global version I found is 190MB big and you are saying about 87MB. What is the difference? Is it still the same??

via maemo flasher or via NSU, you loose your personnal data, parameters,... not via OTA

OK Thanks anyway. But this is my question now. The global firmware I downloaded is 190MB and the OTA is 87MB. Is it ok if I flash the 190MB .bin file??

dtergens | # 467 | 2010-10-26, 15:47 | Report

190 mb is the full and last maemo 5 OS (by this way, it makes a reset to the phone)

87 mb is the PR.1.3 add contents (in this way via ota/wifi, you will keep all your personnal contents)

sorry for bad english...

OK. Thanks I managed to flash it to PR1.3 Global via Maemo flasher. If in the future there will be another update will it automatically flash to global or UK??

yes u can update from device thats what is called OTA
first check in app manager if update is available.if its available update from there
I didn't find any update in mine so i tried following in xterminal

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

as always u need to run the above command as root
