The OVI Map is different from Symbian version. It looks better now, but still lack of some BASIC features, such as, saving of locations (POI)... WHY?

Not sure if there is any turn-by-turn navigation.

But since the N900 is now available in Chinese market, we might see PapaGo for N900 soon?
And with Qt technology, if Garmin ported to Qt version for future Symbian devices, then possibly there'll be one for N900.

Garmin already announce in MFM stated there wont be anymore update for garmin XT. Now they are focusing on their asus smartphone

sh*t.....mess with the chinese input just now....lost my virtual keyboard, need to reflash again tonight.....

I thought of leaving the AC plug at home for home use and use the USB port in the office. Now this seem unworkable.
Luckily, I have bought a charger adaptor which was intended for my car charger. Now have to use the adapter in the office.
Thanks bro!

Messing with the alt-tabbing emulation on hildon-modified (ctrl+bspace works like alt-tab). Very, very fun... UNTIL you get a msg/email notification, which ctrl+bspace will UTTERLY mess up. It works ONLY if you use the taskman soft button.

Also, modded most of the system sounds. Ah, the great joy of unrestricted hacking.

Shame there isn't a PROPER file manager on Meamo yet. CuteExplorer works for the most part, but it's still not THAT stable.

Is it just me or display font on browser is different for PR.12?

USB port only provide 5V.So of course the charging will take a longer time compared to charging with normal way.

Using Maemo Updater is actually quite easy.
It's even easier if you have "played" with command prompt before

Looks same to me.
Gonna try Mozilla with PR 1.2 tonight

Ninja, friday ni after work reflash my phone skali with PR1.2

This Friday? Yeah, I think can. Thursday confirm again.

Mmmm, smooth w/o OC... With OC sure smoother...

Though will all this "may damage your device" warnings being thrown about, I'm gonna wait for the non RC release of PR1.2 myself. It's funny though, the moment anyone goes "sudo gainroot", he/she has already crossed into "may damage your device" territory lol...

Now gonna play around with Queen BeeCon... Shame I have to save up for a secondary Symbian phone later SIMPLY for the convenience of Garmin, oh well.

alrite, will do. Blanka makan kat klcc

woot. mine nid. how u mess up ur keyboard

Funny about those warnings, when we enable and install apps from devel and/or testing, already steps into "may damage your device" territory, Sames goes to flashing to MeeGo terminal version (which is much more unstable), same goes for flashing/dual booting other OS, same goes for over-clocking.
Heck, N900 is so open and powerful, you can easily step into those territory. It's dangerous when novice users do it, but it doesn't mean novice users can't improve. It's through learning, experience, users gain more experience and become more skilled.
Just like flashing, 1st time novice users will be like "Oh gosh!", after they tried and do a few times, they become more experience. If they face problem and tried to find solution, research, and fix it, they gain more experience and skill, also understand more.

N900 is a great device, although it benefits more experienced and skilled users, but it's also a learning device for novice users, and the learning path is long and a lot to learn, which is a good thing. It can make someone from a novice become a very experience and knowledgeable in smartphone.

do u guys know anything about flashing an older version maemo from newer version can cause PROBLEMS!!!

3 things mess up today:

1. virtual keyboard not working - cause : after install and uninstall chinese input

2. hardware keyboard not functioning as it should be... - cause : ditto

3. after a reflash, my n900 won't detect my sim card.... - cause : reflash from PR1.2 back to PR1.1

so....more work to do now...
