my download is already 88%..just wanna ask if i need to format my phone 1st before flashing new firmware? or can flash straight away after i already backup everything.
Have any forumers face problem when using *#0000#, it shows 'V Unknon' instead of the firmware version?

Even with PR 1.1 you can check the firmware with *#0000#
So far fine with "unofficial" PR 1.2.

Aloha guys... Joining the club! Poor dad got one of these babies from a friend (and I was like, what the...). He couldn't figure it out at all, and offered a trade for my N97 Mini for it...
To which I scrambled and dumped all data from the N97 like my life depended on it. Lol.
Now hacking Easy Deb into the thing, the installer is as slow as flying monkeys on ADD drugs. PR1.2 RC seems fun, but will wait until it leaves bleeding edge first lol. Never was the one to test RCs back in me Linux days anyways.

U also can check SETTING --> ABOUT PRODUCT will show unknown too. It happen to me last time. Just reinstall mp-fremantle to get back the version.

That means you're out of memory to perform other operations. Should be some apps you install from devel or testing which are not optified. Optified apps should only use very little of your rootfs space. Try to manually flash using the flasher tool, it's very easy to do. Just follow below steps. First, you need to download the flasher tool and the latest firmware from Nokia repo. It's all mentioned in the below steps: http://maemofanatics.com/how-to-flash-your-nokia-n900/

U don try, u wont know how to do.. If i were u to send back to AP comp, then i rather sell off my phone to get another less complicated phone.. Jus my 2 cents
