What does Overclock (OC) means? Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer, usually practiced by enthusiasts seeking an increase in the performance of their computers. Some purchase low-end computer components which they then overclock to higher clock rates, or overclock high-end components to attain levels of performance beyond the specified values. Others overclock outdated components to keep pace with new system requirements, rather than purchasing new hardware.[1] People who overclock their components mainly focus their efforts on processors, video cards, motherboard chipsets, and random-access memory (RAM). It is done through manipulating the CPU multiplier and the motherboard's front side bus (FSB) clock rate until a maximum stable operating frequency is reached, although with the introduction of Intel's new X58 chipset and the Core i7 processor, the front side bus has been replaced with the QPI (Quick Path Interconnect); often this is called the Baseclock (BCLK). While the idea is simple, variation in the electrical and physical characteristics of computing systems complicates the process. CPU multipliers, bus dividers, voltages, thermal loads, cooling techniques and several other factors such as individual semiconductor clock and thermal tolerances can affect it. Every component has its unique limits with higher clocks and voltage. Two different CPUs may clock completely differently, one being stable with higher clocks at a similar temperature as the other. The bus and memory stability and tolerances also affect how stable an overclocking can be.[2] Source Wiki For more detailed info refer to the link below http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Comput...verclocking.asp The tutorial on how to OC is in the spoiler below ( Guide tested by Aspire2oo6) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Apr 24 2010, 04:54 PM |

yeah. currently n900 doesn't support USSD function.
but you still can use this widget. http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance...widget/0.1.7-0/ i tested it and yeah, it works with my hotlink simcard. but if you unsure to install the widget. fear no more. the PR1.2 has its update on it. The update is soon. I think. //PS:If you noticed. The update is in extras-testing. Not extras-devil. So it's 98% perfectly safe.// This post has been edited by fakerdemit: Mar 29 2010, 02:47 AM |

The official price is RM 2,280. So, you can draw your own conclusions as to what's actually cheap

QUOTE(fakerdemit @ Mar 29 2010, 02:45 AM) yeah. currently n900 doesn't support USSD function. This is also one important thing Nokia Malaysia/Singapore missed out and never prepare for. For official set, they should understand every shortcomings of the phone such as this important one and let the customer know and what they can do, or provide the app for them, the USSD widgets.but you still can use this widget. http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance...widget/0.1.7-0/ i tested it and yeah, it works with my hotlink simcard. but if you unsure to install the widget. fear no more. the PR1.2 has its update on it. The update is soon. I think. //PS:If you noticed. The update is in extras-testing. Not extras-devil. So it's 98% perfectly safe.// Suppose if PR1.2 have solved this, then probably they rushed it. PR1.2 have solve many bugs and several improvements, even the User Guide/Manual have added many things. At first, I thought they would wait for PR1.2 before they launch here, but seems not the case. Probably in order to compete in the market (since Milestone and X10 launched too), they decided to just get over the PR1.2 update? QUOTE(davidlian @ Mar 29 2010, 11:17 AM) Hey there, there's no MMS support for the Nokia N900 right now. That's why it won't work. They're talking about fMMS, which is a third part app for sending/receiving MMS. |

hey.
well not all the apps in devel and testing catalogue are risky. fAPN ? I didn't install that app. and btw, have you entered the correct http proxy and the port ? i don't know the http proxy and the port number. but perhaps you could search for that on talk.maemo.org Here a link to help you out: http://wiki.maemo.org/FMMS but that guide is for T-Mobile USA just follow the guide and change the input for access point name, http proxy, port, and web address.

Download and install Nokia Maps Loader: http://www.nokiausa.com/get-support-and-so...ad#/nokia-n900/ 3. Open the Maps app on your N900 after it loads completely close it 4. Connect your N900 in Mass Storage Mode via the USB cable 5. Run Map Loader App on your PC and load the maps for your country. You can get fMMS in Extras-devel application catalogue. Refer the following guide to download apps from Extras-devel catalogue: http://thenokiablog.com/2009/10/27/maemo-e...0-applications/ According to my friends, n900 has agps tat uses satellite right?

GPS uses the Global Positioning Satellites to fix your devices location.
A-GPS uses your network operators transmission towers to Assist the satellite signals to fix your devices location.A-GPS is coarse grained typically 100s of meters vs GPS sub Meter. n900 use both. But if you use GPS, and you have the map information (get from OVI MAPS), you don't need to use the a-GPS and don't need to burn you data plan. the voice command for navigation is still not support for Malaysia maps. and navigation uses your data plan. |

well as i said bro, it really depends on who the ap distributors are. i cant vouch for any good ap distributors but i guess i am lucky as my neighbour is the distributor. i have 1 single problem with a much older phone with its slider and he gladly replaced a new units for me within 2 days. its very open for discussion the whole ap handset thing =/ but the general rule for me is if its like 100-200 bucks difference then i go for zitron but in this case rm480 difference (i bought mine for RM1800) its a huge difference u see

QUOTE Maemo is mostly based on open source code, and has been developed by Maemo Devices within Nokia in collaboration with many open source projects such as the Linux kernel, Debian, and GNOME. Maemo is based on Debian GNU/Linux and draws much of its GUI, frameworks, and libraries from the GNOME project. It uses the Matchbox window manager, and the GTK-based Hildon as its GUI and application framework. BTW, anyone installed media player widget for the desktop ? HAHA. try getting a misscall or a phone call. Shortly after that, your media player will play by itself. Really cool bug |

For official set, they should understand every shortcomings of the phone such as this important one and let the customer know and what they can do, or provide the app for them, the USSD widgets. well i think the idea is buyer have to make sure what they are buying and is for them to ask. even as the phone was launch earlier elsewhere everyone knows what they are getting into.. and following the history there wouldnt be much changes even if it arrives here as updates are across the board.Suppose if PR1.2 have solved this, then probably they rushed it. PR1.2 have solve many bugs and several improvements, even the User Guide/Manual have added many things. At first, I thought they would wait for PR1.2 before they launch here, but seems not the case. Probably in order to compete in the market (since Milestone and X10 launched too), they decided to just get over the PR1.2 update? They're talking about fMMS, which is a third part app for sending/receiving MMS. Please be aware that this phone has potential but have yet to be tapped into... we are waiting for developers to unlock its potential.... if you can bear with it and grow with it... you will definately reap a great enjoyment of the phone....

oh ya one more thing... for those new users... mr. google is a handy place to get to know more about your phone especially apps... if you install the repositories into the app manager you will be able to browse available apps in for N900....
i think one of the key word use is "n900 application" or "n900 repository" |

Maemo is using Desktop concept, you can organize your Desktop just like your PC, you can put icons overlapping one another; Basically, depending on one's creativity and how they design their Desktop (or some call it Workspace), it'll looks very nice, classy and high end. Android is using Home Screen concept just like every other smartphone, and it depends on the theme and stuffs to look good, but that's as far as it can go, because the "core" is still the same, they have a fixed position or design or template. As for the potential of the phone and apps, once added "testing" and "devel" repositories, there're quite a number of useful apps, widgets, as well as those potential ones. For those want to know, can check out below video, watch the last part for the potential of this device: Also, for those looking for customization of the Conversations, you can do it and it makes the conversations looks better.

Yesterday I download SuperTux from http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/supertux-stable/. Seem like it's just mario dress in penguin costume. Haha.
Try to download Angry birds from Ovi, but didn't receive any link when I click on 'send to mobile'. Any idea? Is there any way to play youtube video in fullscreen mode without the quality degraded so much? |

QUOTE(Nidz @ Mar 31 2010, 01:07 PM) i see.... It depends, a lot of people want capacitive because it's sort of the trend, but capacitive is less accurate.so, wut about the screen's response and sensitivity? i am contemplating btwn this phone or HTC desire.... the major difference btwn these phones are the screens... i think that capacitative screen is better, like iphone. but wut abt ur opinion abt n900? With the N900, you can use your fingernail to touch small links in websites (e.g. Facebook) without having to zoom in, or you can use stylus. You can play those Flash Games or games that requires accurate touch, especially Flash for Desktop which is so small on the N900 screen, it's almost impossible to touch with the fingers. Capacitive screen is great for multi-touch, but I read that resistive also "supports" multi-touch, but not sure what it actually means. Finally, check out the Sketch app on N900 below. Correct me if I'm wrong, you can't do that on capacitive screen. Look at the "accuracy", and you can even use fine pencil to draw/sketch, very cool! Comment from YouTuber: A capacitive screen is very responsive, as it uses the electricity coming from your finger to recognise its position. This does have the disadvantage of not being able to use it with a stylus or gloves and it being less accurate. Advantage is that it is more responsive and that its more likely to support multi-touch. Resistive uses pressure points and is exactly the opposite of a capacitive screen. |

Are you sure it's autolock? It should not lock when you're calling or answering phone calls.I still remember the first time I use it and the screen goes blank, then I keep press the side unlock trigger. Later I found out... it's the proximity sensors... It will turn off the screen when you cover the proximity sensors (e.g when you listen to the phone), this is to save power. When you move the phone away from your ear/head, the screen should comes back in a moment. You can try make a call, then cover the top part of the phone with your hand (where the proximity sensors is), the screen will go blank, then uncover it and the screen should comes back. It shouldn't lock, because there're times you need to access the keypad (e.g. when calling voice operated options such as 1800 lines, where you need to press the numbers to proceed). |

Not sure if newer firmware can increase the volume, my previous N81 firmware update does just that and I only need to on half of the volume. The microphone was good tough, crisp and clear compared to my N81. Anyway, for me, most important is the sound quality is good, the soft part I still can accept.

I don't get why others have been saying N900 has better camera than N97. The quality of pictures I've taken using N900 is pretty bad. Definitely worse than N97, maybe it's just my phone.

Huh?I'm not saying N900 is inferior or something, just saying the speaker is not so loud (comparing with others N series), that's all... Is something wrong? I didn't say the N900 is not good or saying the other is better. Did you read previous post? Someone mentioned about soft speaker, so I just share comparison with other device which I've tested before. It's not a comparison that shows which phone is better. It's not like I don't know how good the N900 is... This post has been edited by Andy214: Apr 1 2010, 10:50 AM |

QUOTE(Andy214 @ Apr 1 2010, 10:44 AM) Huh? actually its just a general comment not specify to you. Because alot ppl NOT U they compare a phone n keep going on complain about 1 weakness on and on. If u read my previous post i did a comparison as wellI'm not saying N900 is inferior or something, just saying the speaker is not so loud (comparing with others N series), that's all... Is something wrong? I didn't say the N900 is not good or saying the other is better. Did you read previous post? Someone mentioned about soft speaker, so I just share comparison with other device which I've tested before. It's not a comparison that shows which phone is better. It's not like I don't know how good the N900 is... 5800XM, N97, N97mini and N900 to show their pros and cons. I am sorry if my comment got u excited i apoglogise This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Apr 1 2010, 10:59 AM |

I am sorry if my comment got u excited i apoglogise Since the phone gets "hotter", more and more comparison will pops up. I guess that's something the N900 will have to face once it gets more famous Cheers |

QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Apr 1 2010, 10:32 AM) its unfair to compare like tis. n900 beats everything else. 1 thing bad u keep focus. can your n81 or n97 mini response so fast like n900? can it browse webpages like n900? can it be a fm transmitter like n900? does yours have infra? even the N79 has an fm transmitter |

According to the "experts", it's not possible to have big difference in mah unless the size of the battery is englarged, or unless they reduce some safety materials to add a little extra mah?You need to install USSD Widget I think In maemo-talk forum, few have bought some claimed higher mah battery but after they check using batlevel app, actually the mah is even less than the original, and the charging level is not accurate. Not sure how true. You can try checking out MUGEN POWER batteries, which gives extra mah at the expense of bigger battery size, and it also provide you with a modified back cover to accomodate the battery size. Some owners bought a spare battery, or you can opt for the Nokia DC-11. I'm using that and it's great, I prefer this over the spare battery as I don't have to off the phone and open the rear cover. The DC-11 you can get from Nokia shop for RM199, or slightly cheaper outside. There's one lowyat seller selling for RM180. Inside DC-11, it comes with a 1500mah re-chargeable battery and is capable to fully charge a 950mah battery. |

If high output very fast to reach its full charge Not really sure, have to check the manual. But usually, I plug it into my phone when it's about 40% and leave it for about 1 hour, it re-charges up to 80%++ or more, can't remember the exact time and %. And my phone is turned on GSM mode (2/2.5G, with IM connected - Skype, Fb Chat, Ovi Chat).Added on April 1, 2010, 2:09 pm i tested it before its very weak compare to n900 Nothing fancy, but it does the job and the it's slim, fit perfectly on the iPhone pouch. Oh, it can charge up to 2 phone at a single time (with 2 output charging cable, one micro USB and and another 2mm). There's 3000mah aftermarket portable charger, but I think it's too big and bulky for me. |

The phone weight is 181g so any extreme drop will cause some minor damage. But the build of the phone is very solid so medium drop , or knock will be alright |

QUOTE(lilster @ Apr 1 2010, 04:04 PM) thanks for your input aspire.

Who knows, later there is 4GS? Anyway, more importantly,... one must know the iPhone battery is not easily replaceable... Watch YouTube, you need to dismantle everything, the LCD, the mainboard... Think about it... the battery probably might last up to 1.5 years, or even less, base don usage (or if lucky, longer). I also found out the iPhone's LCD replacement cost over RM1000. If you jb your iPhone, say goodbye to the warranty. If you don't jb and wait after 1 year (warranty over), then you have to worry when's the battery will give way just when you started enjoying jb. But if you don't mind all that, then go for it. It does have a lot of nice apps, no doubt. I like the apps/games for iPhone, but the phone itself is simply too expensive, other competitors are far better yet priced a lot cheaper. I did consider getting one for the apps/games, but if I were to pay so much just for the apps/games, probably I just get myself a PSP + Nintendo DS and I still have money to spare. Besides, if it were not jb, I need to pay for the apps/games again, and imagine how much you've paid for the phone... and iPod Touch similar spec with 3GS can't be jb. Headache, N900 better, no such thing as hack/jb. It's a REAL SMARTPHONE/COMPUTER, when you buy a computer, you don't have to jb/hack it to see the system files or install stuffs. Imagine you paid so much, but get so much "restriction", hm... doesn't sound right to me. Why am I charged so much for getting restricted access? Every phone has it's pros and cons, most important is to know the pros as well as the cons, and if you accept it, happy with it.

Just notice something from media player.
While I browsing my music album inside n900, I saw a lots unknown album and other albums where i got no idea where it come from(I didn't have all these song)?? And yes I'm listening right now. So when i go back to media player main screen, I saw 1 of my colleage pc name on bottom left. So conclusion is my colleage sharing his songs/albums through the Windows Media Player and I'm connecting to the office WIFI now, so Maemo able to play/sync/share media files with PC without any lag. |

Was waiting so long for this phone, but quite disappointed.
I went to the Nokia store today and played around with the N900. The QWERTY keypad is nice, and the phone feels solid. But I really think the GUI is annoying. 1) Menu items just standard Nokia ones and can't rearrange 2) It's using a resistive screen so can't drag it with your finger smoothly, had to use my fingernail. 3) Applications all quite dull. 4) Stuck in landscape mode The good thing is that there's a lot of non-GUI functionality, but it's quite expensive. I think for that price an Android phone would be a better buy - more applications in Android Market and customization potential. Played with some android HTC phones recently, think they're really great. |

OVI Maps is the most interesting thing, but if you're a Nokia user chances are you already prefer to install "ahem-ahem" edition of Garmin.just a question, are there any special feature or apps available in n900? bsides multitask and surfing net experience. It's Maemo based so I guess you can download any application from maemo.org, but not sure if all your old Symbian applications can be easily ported and used. Seriously for 2k, I think this phone is not worth it. |

I am very happy with the available apps which is mostly usefull... 4) in the next update it has potrait mode as well... beside u should know that it is that way when you purchase the phone... so why you still go ahead?? hehe j/k 5) its a mini computer with a phone function so for phone usage is bare minimum... but more coming at the next update.... 6) what device can dual boot?? n900 can... boot android.. search youtube... 7) what device can handle multi task propertly??? n900.... 8) what device can do remote desktop??? n900... 9) the ovi map is gonna have update too in the next update.. hehe... now is the bare basics... 10) well it is an open platform means many more will be coming... 11) if you got problem with the phone, you have maemo.org to go to to share the bug and there will be response from relevant ppl... it has not failed me so far... 12) there is an emulator for this phone... what more for gaming... do some searching you will find it.... 13) i think i can go further but i will stop here for now.... Note: do search around for nokian900application... you may find repository to download and instal... This post has been edited by firstknight: Apr 1 2010, 09:20 PM |

QUOTE(firstknight @ Apr 1 2010, 09:17 PM) haha... well let me share with you some stuff if you are not geeky enough... 1) the rearrange thing is coming soon in the next updated.... 2) well to be precise of what you drag of course use finger tip... dun use ur nail you might scratch the screen!!!! but so far me using finger also can drag smoothly... must be the way you do it... to me... it is comparable to that iphone and for a resistive screen is very good!!! 3) iphone have many ppl doing apps and although it states got loads of apps, i hear ppl say there are too many useless apps than good ones... so I hear hear only la... i think the apps available for maemo is quite exhaustive if you instal repositories in your n900.... I am very happy with the available apps which is mostly usefull... 4) in the next update it has potrait mode as well... beside u should know that it is that way when you purchase the phone... so why you still go ahead?? hehe j/k 5) its a mini computer with a phone function so for phone usage is bare minimum... but more coming at the next update.... 6) what device can dual boot?? n900 can... boot android.. search youtube... 7) what device can handle multi task propertly??? n900.... 8) what device can do remote desktop??? n900... 9) the ovi map is gonna have update too in the next update.. hehe... now is the bare basics... 10) well it is an open platform means many more will be coming... 11) if you got problem with the phone, you have maemo.org to go to to share the bug and there will be response from relevant ppl... it has not failed me so far... 12) i think i can go further but i will stop here for now.... Note: do search around for nokian900application... you may find repository to download and instal... wat does dual boot mean? go on go on LOL |

OVI Maps is the most interesting thing, but if you're a Nokia user chances are you already prefer to install "ahem-ahem" edition of Garmin. den does 2.6K worth for an iphone? The only thing good about it is animation capactive touch?It's Maemo based so I guess you can download any application from maemo.org, but not sure if all your old Symbian applications can be easily ported and used. Seriously for 2k, I think this phone is not worth it. FOr RM2.2k for N900 u can not only do animation u can do so much more because of flexibilty of the OS This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Apr 1 2010, 09:30 PM |

QUOTE(Andrew Lim @ Apr 1 2010, 07:44 PM) Was waiting so long for this phone, but quite disappointed. that is Maemo...I went to the Nokia store today and played around with the N900. The QWERTY keypad is nice, and the phone feels solid. But I really think the GUI is annoying. 1) Menu items just standard Nokia ones and can't rearrange 2) It's using a resistive screen so can't drag it with your finger smoothly, had to use my fingernail. 3) Applications all quite dull. 4) Stuck in landscape mode The good thing is that there's a lot of non-GUI functionality, but it's quite expensive. I think for that price an Android phone would be a better buy - more applications in Android Market and customization potential. Played with some android HTC phones recently, think they're really great. thats why..I dont buy this N900.. I will wait for Maemo's other phone that newer than N900.. well for Android.. I can see they improved a lot since their HTC Dream.. |

You get root access or administrator rights without the need to hack/jb, that's the right way, just like when you buy a PC, you get administrator access to your Windows XP/Vista/7. " If it will be a long story, u can always pm me =) If you're in the IT industry or understand technical details, you will know how powerful the N900's Maemo OS is. It's hard to explain to you, but previous I've show you a video review by Dining table, the ending part, the guys shows the power of the N900. In the middle part, he also mentioned those that might no be suitable to get this device. I must fully understand the phone and c whether it suits me =) With Maemo OS, you get access to X-Terminal out of the box, which is a console like COMMAND PROMPT for Windows. From there, you can do a lot of things, if you're a technical person or linux pro that is. Then if you're just a normal user who wants prefer a simple phone, then this phone is not for you. iPhone is the phone that covers everything, and only let you see what they want you to see, OR only allow you to do, what they allow you do to. But, it's enough for most people, plus it's safer for most people. Besides, since the N900 is very "open", you can see just soooo many things can be done on the N900, people can customize the OS easily, add new things to the Desktop which allows you to modify somethings, customize, etc. Even the Messaging Conversations can be customize easily. Even if you're not a technical person, the N900 still have a very unique, one of a kind OS, which have the "panorama" Desktop concept, and allow you to cuztomize the Desktop easily, creatively. If you check out other smartphones, their using HomeScreen which have a fixed template or location, there's customization but it is limited and have fixed positioning. The Maemo OS Desktop concept is just like our PC Windows Desktop, you can place icons anywhere you like, you can place it overlap one another, and the GUI looks nice to MOST people. There is also nice and smooth transition, and the GUI is more multimedia based, more stunning and cool than many other smartphone OS. (Example: Check out the Media Player Home Screen, those icons have nice glowing shadow, which looks cool and nice. Check out the progress bars which look cool and nice). Anyway, the look and feel of the OS differes for everyone. Some people might prefer other smartphone OS look and feel. Personally, I find Maemo is unique and very interesting, it is what I want. Plus, check out the Maemo N900 official website, it looks so cool already, totally unlike other phone (at least for me): http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/ If it's not for you, don't force yourself. Look for the phone that catches your attention, and every phone has got it's weakness, see if you can accept it's flaws or weakness. Like N900, it's bulky and heavy compared to others, but I don't mind at all, plus it's a smartphone with loaded features like FM Transmitter, Infra, Keyboard, 32GB storage, etc. And also, the battery issue, being a powerful device, it bound to consume more power than normal phone (it's same like you get a sports car and you can't expect a great fuel consumption comparing with a normal car). QUOTE(numanuma @ Apr 2 2010, 01:22 PM) Can i copy the text from browser and paste it to somewhere else? Yes, activate the "MOUSE".swipe your finger/stylus from the LEFT of the NON-DISPLAY area to the Display Area. You should get your MOUSE and also a button which you can use to active the mouse permanently. With the mouse, you can highlight text, and do other stuffs, which other smartphones can't. Use CTRL-C to copy and CTRL-V to paste For an example, you can watch the below video (last part). NOTE: The below video shows the Flash demo on N900. With Flash, there're tons of apps and games accessible for N900, and with RESISTIVE touch screen and supporting the use of stylus, you can play those Desktop version flash game which requires accurate touch EASILY.

You will see a mouse appear (if not try again). When the mouse appear, a small button on the bottom left with the mouse should also be available for you to turn on the mouse permanently. With the mouse, you can highlight the text and do other stuffs that requires mouse interaction. After highlighting, you can use CTRL+C on the keyboard to copy the text, and CTRL+V to paste. Watch the last part of this video, which I show how to activate the mouse and what you can do with it: This post has been edited by Andy214: Apr 2 2010, 03:37 PM |

QUOTE(Andy214 @ Apr 2 2010, 03:36 PM) You have to activate the mouse first. yeahh!! Got it...got mouse pointer..hahahha...coool!Slide your stylus/finger from the LEFT (outside the display area) and slide to the RIGHT into the display area. You will see a mouse appear (if not try again). When the mouse appear, a small button on the bottom left with the mouse should also be available for you to turn on the mouse permanently. With the mouse, you can highlight the text and do other stuffs that requires mouse interaction. After highlighting, you can use CTRL+C on the keyboard to copy the text, and CTRL+V to paste. Watch the last part of this video, which I show how to activate the mouse and what you can do with it: Thank you bro |

The last time i install mscim-pinyin and mscim-googlepinyin but be careful because it will disable your onscreen keyboard and Fn/Caps lock function. Eventhough the chinese input works perfectly but I end up uninstalling it because of the onscreen keyboard feature and the uninstall process a bit complicated got to use x-terminal and some command.Good luck |

QUOTE(firstknight @ Apr 2 2010, 05:32 PM) I think i need to make some comments.... The Nokia N900 is a mobile Internet device and smartphone, from Nokia based on the Maemo platform, superseding the N810. It runs Maemo 5 Linux as its default operating system and is the first Nokia device based upon the TI OMAP3 microprocessor with the ARM Cortex-A8 core. Unlike the Internet Tablets preceding it, the Nokia N900 is the first Maemo device to include phone functionality (quad-band GSM and 3G UMTS). It functions as a 5 mega pixel camera, a portable media player, and a mobile Internet device with email and full web browsing. It was launched at Nokia World on September 2, 2009 and was released on November 11, 2009 in the United States and 9 European countries.N900 is NOT a smart phone.... IT IS A MID (Mobile Internet Device) I would like to call it MIT too (multimedia internet tabled) It is a big brother to other n7xx n8xx. this devices does not have phone capabilities...

The N900 was launched alongside Maemo 5, giving the device an overall more touch-friendly interface than its predecessors and a customizable home screen which mixes application icons with shortcuts and widgets. Maemo 5 supports Adobe Flash Player 9.4, and includes many applications designed specifically for the mobile platform such as a new touch-friendly media player.[4] Source : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N900 |

Hi all,
Just thought I'd share a quick tip regarding a bug I've encountered while using my N900. Don't think it affects everyone, but I've looked around and there seems to be some of us being affected by it. Details on my device model: Model type: AP set Version: 3.2010.02-8 Basically, I was trying to download apps via the Application Manager using my home wi-fi connection. Before this, I was browsing on the web browser just fine on my wi-fi connection. When I selected the 'Download' option on the screen, the Application Manager could not retrieve any information from the app servers. This only happens when I use a wi-fi connection to connect to the Internet. If I'm using my 3G network to connect to the Internet, I am able to download apps using the Application Manager. Details on the bug: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7665 From my understanding, the cause of this problem seems to be that the N900 is using its own DNS settings for wi-fi connections to try to resolve the domain names of the app servers. By default (well, in my device anyway), the current DNS server that the device is using is 127.0.0.1, which is basically the device itself. Since the device cannot resolve the domain names, it cannot connect to the app servers. I found a solution online (from the link above) which helps to resolve this issue. The idea is to change the DNS settings so that it points to a proper DNS server so that it will be able to resolve the app server domain names. In order to do this, one would need to edit their 'resolv.conf' file, stored in '/etc/' folder. Easiest way to do this is through the X Terminal and using the vi editor. [WARNING] Editing configuration files may cause your device to not function properly. Proceed at your own risk. [Note] Preferable requirements: basic knowledge on Linux commands, usage of vi. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Hope this helps those who are affected! |

If you're near a PC, use WinSCP to remote SSH to your N900, you can basically edit files easily, transfer files, etc.Similarly, be very careful when playing with those system files. There's also another problem with the Wi-Fi where some Wi-Fi were not able to obtain the DNS, even tough you're connected, so you can't surf the net. It will require editing some files too, need to find back the thread in maemo-talk forum. This post has been edited by Andy214: Apr 2 2010, 06:03 PM |

I even put a review on it on frontpage please read it Simple and easy to understand? After you bought your phone we will show you the world of Maemo. Added on April 2, 2010, 6:06 pm QUOTE(Andy214 @ Apr 2 2010, 02:27 PM) If you're in the IT industry or understand technical details, you will know how powerful the N900's Maemo OS is. It's hard to explain to you, but previous I've show you a video review by Dining table, the ending part, the guys shows the power of the N900. In the middle part, he also mentioned those that might no be suitable to get this device. thanks alot. u r always here to give me a full explanation. thanks again.With Maemo OS, you get access to X-Terminal out of the box, which is a console like COMMAND PROMPT for Windows. From there, you can do a lot of things, if you're a technical person or linux pro that is. Then if you're just a normal user who wants prefer a simple phone, then this phone is not for you. iPhone is the phone that covers everything, and only let you see what they want you to see, OR only allow you to do, what they allow you do to. But, it's enough for most people, plus it's safer for most people. Besides, since the N900 is very "open", you can see just soooo many things can be done on the N900, people can customize the OS easily, add new things to the Desktop which allows you to modify somethings, customize, etc. Even the Messaging Conversations can be customize easily. Even if you're not a technical person, the N900 still have a very unique, one of a kind OS, which have the "panorama" Desktop concept, and allow you to cuztomize the Desktop easily, creatively. If you check out other smartphones, their using HomeScreen which have a fixed template or location, there's customization but it is limited and have fixed positioning. The Maemo OS Desktop concept is just like our PC Windows Desktop, you can place icons anywhere you like, you can place it overlap one another, and the GUI looks nice to MOST people. There is also nice and smooth transition, and the GUI is more multimedia based, more stunning and cool than many other smartphone OS. (Example: Check out the Media Player Home Screen, those icons have nice glowing shadow, which looks cool and nice. Check out the progress bars which look cool and nice). Anyway, the look and feel of the OS differes for everyone. Some people might prefer other smartphone OS look and feel. Personally, I find Maemo is unique and very interesting, it is what I want. Plus, check out the Maemo N900 official website, it looks so cool already, totally unlike other phone (at least for me): http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/ If it's not for you, don't force yourself. Look for the phone that catches your attention, and every phone has got it's weakness, see if you can accept it's flaws or weakness. Like N900, it's bulky and heavy compared to others, but I don't mind at all, plus it's a smartphone with loaded features like FM Transmitter, Infra, Keyboard, 32GB storage, etc. And also, the battery issue, being a powerful device, it bound to consume more power than normal phone (it's same like you get a sports car and you can't expect a great fuel consumption comparing with a normal car). Yes, activate the "MOUSE". swipe your finger/stylus from the LEFT of the NON-DISPLAY area to the Display Area. You should get your MOUSE and also a button which you can use to active the mouse permanently. With the mouse, you can highlight text, and do other stuffs, which other smartphones can't. Use CTRL-C to copy and CTRL-V to paste For an example, you can watch the below video (last part). NOTE: The below video shows the Flash demo on N900. With Flash, there're tons of apps and games accessible for N900, and with RESISTIVE touch screen and supporting the use of stylus, you can play those Desktop version flash game which requires accurate touch EASILY. if i bought the phone, anyting ill just come n post my enquiries here  Added on April 2, 2010, 6:07 pmthx to aspire2oo6 too =) Btw, just wanna double check. it has window live messenger too right?

QUOTE(k-bkeat @ Apr 2 2010, 06:03 PM) Btw, just wanna double check. it has window live messenger too right? For this phone, you can forget about having a "separate" application to IM (Instant Messenger).Basically, you can INTEGRATE pretty much of the IM to your contacts. What do I mean? Basically, your contacts can LINK with Skype, OVI, Facebook Chat (through jabber, or other 3rd party plugins), msn/yahoo/icq/etc through 3rd party plugins. So, WHEN you connect to the Internet, these account will automatically try to login, unless you disable them. During this moment, your phone may lag because all these are trying to login. How to chat? The chat is through your Conversations. Basically your SMS and IM conversations are here. The default outlook is nothing spectacular, but you can customize it (unlike other smartphone). But, if you really want a dedicated MSN application, search for aMSN. This MSN app anytime beat most (if not all) other MSN app on other smartphone FLAT FLAT. aMSN is very powerful and rich app close to our Windows based MSN, but it's not yet a complete version. You can google this for the screenshot and see how it looks compared to other smartphone version which is very very basic and simple. |

First time it works fine 2nd time and so on it does retrieve but i dont get any mail when i check from its domain theres alot of email but N900 just works flawlessly.Yeah,I know that.Really impressed when I tried that for 1st time.

QUOTE(Andy214 @ Apr 2 2010, 06:16 PM) For this phone, you can forget about having a "separate" application to IM (Instant Messenger). thanks a lot again. GUYS ! THE MORE I TALK, THE MORE IM CONVINCED N900 IS ALMOST FLAWLESS AND UNBEATABLE.Basically, you can INTEGRATE pretty much of the IM to your contacts. What do I mean? Basically, your contacts can LINK with Skype, OVI, Facebook Chat (through jabber, or other 3rd party plugins), msn/yahoo/icq/etc through 3rd party plugins. So, WHEN you connect to the Internet, these account will automatically try to login, unless you disable them. During this moment, your phone may lag because all these are trying to login. How to chat? The chat is through your Conversations. Basically your SMS and IM conversations are here. The default outlook is nothing spectacular, but you can customize it (unlike other smartphone). But, if you really want a dedicated MSN application, search for aMSN. This MSN app anytime beat most (if not all) other MSN app on other smartphone FLAT FLAT. aMSN is very powerful and rich app close to our Windows based MSN, but it's not yet a complete version. You can google this for the screenshot and see how it looks compared to other smartphone version which is very very basic and simple. nonetheless, i tink the onli 2 tiny little problem which is: 1.battery(i know its unavoidable cause its powerfulness ) is the best solution dc-11?2.will there be something like n97 into n97mini? iphone3g into 3gs? its not tat im trying to cari pasal, its just tat im gonna buy this phone and it will be another more or less 10 years b4 i change another phone cause im really saving alot of money to buy a stable phone that can last me a long time =) i dont mind if the phone will not be the best but are there any leak information bout a slighty upgraded version of n900 coming out ? |

PS: put lots more widget on ur desktop ur battery life drain faster....(Ex: Personal data plan monitor, Amazon, Personal IP Monitor, Facebook....) I'm currently using Pidgin Internet Messenger, its not bad for msn. You guys should try it. This post has been edited by desmand: Apr 2 2010, 09:05 PM |

Put on average, the iPhone battery might last you around 1~1.5 years depending on usage, longer if you're lucky. Changing the battery isn't like any other Nokia/Sony Ericson/etc phone, you can't just buy a cheap OEM battery and use... The battery price, I'm not sure, but definitely not less than RM150? Then you have to think about the labour to dismantle your iPhone to replace your battery... As usual, once a device has been dismantle before, problems might start cropping up if the work is not done well. Plus, the LCD itself, if damaged, cost over RM1000 (as read from a blog). Basically for Battery, if you're getting a smartphone, you shouldn't expect the battery to last as long as the non-smart phone, unless it comes with high capacity original battery. The N900 if you really want to save the battery, it can last you up to 3 days most probably, means charging interval of 3 days once. But then, you get this phone is TO ENJOY, why do you worry and try so hard to save the battery and ended up not able to enjoy it? You can charge it everyday, doesn't matter. A typical battery have around 300-500 charge cycles (1 charge cycle = 100% usage, not how many time you charge). Let's say your battery give away after say 1.5 years, with Nokia/Sony Ericson/etc, you can get OEM battery for less than RM50 and it performs up to par with original battery (some claims better). So, why worry about battery? Unless you're using iPhone, then you have to really worry. As for build quality: Is your current phone a Nokia? If yes, then you roughly know the quality of Nokia phones. This is my first AP Nokia phone, but this N900 AP Set is a US Set, made in Korea. Previous forwarded mails have mentioned to avoid certain countries model, not sure how true, but so far the official set I have are all of good quality, and hopefully it will continue... (Pray Pray)And if you search YouTube for N900 Stress Test, you can find out the N900 has very good build quality, they even did a few drop test, sit on the phone test, water test (horrible). The LCD, N97 have more durable LCD, but probably that's why it's less responsive? Not sure. Nonetheless, it's very heart-breaking to see the fellar torture the N900, why not just give it to me This post has been edited by Andy214: Apr 2 2010, 11:00 PM |

QUOTE(k-bkeat @ Apr 2 2010, 10:00 PM) nope i just shocked nia LOL Since you've never use a smartphone before, it'll be a BIG leap for you. You might have a lot to discover and possible many frustrations because smartphones are like a mini computer, and like a computer, there will be time where it will lag, slow, hang, etc. Unlike a normal phone, which is fast, because it is simple and just does the job. The N900 on the surface is very simple, but it can be a very complicated/sophisticated phone/device depending on the user. If you want a phone that is simple and easy to use, probably iPhone is a good choice as it has been much improved and stable. Or you can go for Symbian devices, like N97/N97 mini, or if you prefer Sony, got for Satio which have much better camera, nice looks, high quality video recording, nice screens, or go for Samsung. Symbian OS I would say is a very easy to use and fast to learn OS, at least for me and several of my friend was able to learn it very quickly. Or if you prefer Android, can check out Motorola Milestone which look very much like the N900, but slimmer. Or if you prefer Sony, the X10... or if you want superb screen, check out the Samsung I9000 with Super AMOLED. The design looks very much like iPhone, it runs on Android and the screen is crazy clear and stunning. Anyway, just to show off the Desktop Concept of Maemo OS, as I've mentioned, the Desktop is not like any other smartphones OS, it's like your Windows Desktop, you can place icons/widgets as you like, customize it. Check out all the different Desktop design from other users depending on their preference and creativity. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=591293#post591293 Oh, finally, and again, although many people says N900 lacks of games/apps, perhaps they forget about Flash app/games, there're easily much much more flash games/apps in the web compared to iPhone app/games. And since N900 support Flash... well, need to say more? Of course, Flash is also coming to other smartphone OS, but iPhone I'm not sure. Oh, and again, I almost forgotten... check out the Qt4.6 demo in YouTube Next time, any app/games develop in Qt4.6 can be install to Symbian, Maemo, Meego, Windows Mobile, etc (except iPhone, not sure about future). Basically, it's like Java Runtime, as long as these OS have Qt.46 libraries, the apps will be supported. So, nothing really to worry about, because future Symbian, Maemo and MeeGo will share most of the apps/games. This post has been edited by Andy214: Apr 2 2010, 11:19 PM |

Hello, it is my first time posting on this version of thread.
The last time I posted was before it came official in Malaysia. That was so long time ago, and you expect it to stay at the same price? I didn't know some of you guys could be so unfriendly. Can't the TS update himself? This post has been edited by fruitie: Apr 2 2010, 11:30 PM |

QUOTE(k-bkeat @ Apr 2 2010, 11:26 PM) aha! im enlighten by u all Most important is you're happy with your choice and the phone. You can always try out all the phone first yourself before you buy, that's the best answer for yourself.After you buy, don't look back and regret, look forward, learn to use the phone, utilize it and enjoy it. There will always be newer and better phone, and technologies moves VERY fast. Unless you're very rich to change the phone often, otherwise, just enjoy your phone, learn it and utilize it. I can honestly tell you this is the ONLY phone which can make me non-stop using it almost all the time, before sleep, i will play with it, even just looking at the Desktop it is nice. If can really replace your laptop for surfing if you didn't carry one or lazy to carry out here and there. Plus, with FM transmitter, you can play videos in your car while the sound output through FM to your car's Radio. It's nice. It's one phone that can make one keep on playing and using it. If you really made up your mind, I would strongly suggest you to subscribe to 3G data plan package. If somehow you do NOT want to (or for the moment, unsure if you need it), make sure you go to the Internet Settings and change the settings to "Always Ask", so that it doesn't connect automatically to network (3G/2G) when there is no Wifi. It happen to someone before and I think his bill is over RM500. Again, most important is yourself, make sure you are happy with your choice. |

I'm seriously think TS should put all those Q&A asked by those forumer at the front page, to avoid those Question keep repeating again and again...we at 35 pages already and all those message are N900 VS IPHONE VS Adroid.....
Back to topic guys/girls, a new software call Toshl (Expenses Tracker) to keep track of your daily expenses. I using it now and its great. |

Purpose of having an online forum is to have a pleasant discussion and assist each other when a query arises.
Of course everything could be Googled and found online, then what's the purpose of having forum? In a way, I kinda dislike spoon-feeding but at times I'm one of them too. Simply because the users themselves can give better answer than those generated results. This post has been edited by fruitie: Apr 2 2010, 11:47 PM |

I believe nothing is perfect, everything has flaws. N900 is not a perfect device, so is iPhone 3GS.
There is no need to start on such fanboyism topics. It is a never ending debate as everyone sees things differently. Be it your N900, iPhone 3GS, Nexus One or any phone, as long as your are happy, why bother about criticisms? |

QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Apr 3 2010, 12:03 AM) But you see N900 owners will admit that this device is far from perfect & will be better with future firmware updates. Next time reply them politely, "I see, iPhone is the best. Good for you then."For iPhone fanboy,iPhone is the best.Period I'm sure he/she will not turn up again. |

QUOTE(firstknight @ Apr 3 2010, 12:01 AM) i got problem with cafe world... you have or not?? Can't, the game use too heavy resource, it take ups the memory and causes the browser to stop responding when I try it the first time, after finish loading that is. Probably see if it works when N900 gets Flash 10 updates, which was said to be able to utilize the GPU. If yes, then I believe it might be smoother and better? We'll see... |

laggy youtube vids? usually when the video is laggy i just let it load till finish then u click on ful lscreen then play it. it wont lag after that, from my experience lah.
probably it lags because the processor it trying to loads othe contains in the site while its playing the video. 600mhz has it limits too |

I'm on unlimited digi 3G all the time, and I got the FB applet doing realtime update on my N900 desktop + weather update + news update + tunewiki to download lyric automatically when I play music.. and at the same time, N900 allows me to natively sign in to MSN, YM, Skype, Google Talk at the same time.. With all these usage.. the phone only last me 6 to 8 hours before the battery dies.. which is a major setback at this moment..The phone was designed to be fully connected / online at all times, yet when we do so, the battery dies too quickly for it to be of any good use.. As for the linux terminal, you can run useful commands, install other daemons etc if you know what you are doing.. and its like having a PC! No other phone comes close so far that I know of.. for example go to the Xterminal and type TOP, you will see the Task Manager and running processes.. thats just 1 of the many commands you can learn and try! It also supports VPN, if you are really geeky you can install OpenVPN and it works perfectly fine with some VPN services in LYN such as bolehvpn.. and you can install torrent clients such as transmission etc and let it run in the background.. the 32gb memory is big enough to do some serious downloading.. but the battery will die faster!! I'd say this device has a lot of potential since its open source.. The only problem is that its not very user friendly so dont recommend it to ppl who like easy-to-use gadgets.. its recommended for intermediate to advanced users.. + I've used samsung with AMOLED screen before, the hardware very top-notch, the screen very pretty, the camera + video fast, but Samsung never update the firmware, never do any bugfix, never add any enhancement.. I prefer nokia since their devices evolve in each firmware update.. so in the end i swear not to buy any samsung again! LOL Depending on what type of user you are and what you want in a phone, I'd say the Pro far outweighs the Cons.. and since the phone is charged by Micro-USB, there's a lot of possibilities of charging it while on the move eg battery pack, usb cable etc..

Thanks aspire2oo6!!For Windows 7 Only Step 1 Go to Start > Control Panel > (View icon by Large icons) > Select Homegroup > Select Choose media streaming options > Allow your pc name > then put your photos in My Photos and music in My music Step 2 Go Media player on your N900 on your bottom left you see your computer name select it Step 3 Then select Which music or file to stream direct to your phone speaker And the best part is.. the video doesnt have to physically be in My Video's folder, you can virtually add a video folder into Windows 7's Libraries -> Videos folder or Libraries -> Music folder and it still appears in the N900.. How to add a folder into the Library : 1. Click on Computer 2. Look for Library section on the Explorer bar on the left (You might need to Expand it first, its below Desktop -> Libraries) Right click on the Library you want, for example Videos & click on Properties 3. Click on Include a Folder 4. Browse and select the folder you want to add to the Library 5. Click on Include Folder then click on Apply or OK. Note : One problem I notice so far is that when you add a Mixed content folder (eg a folder that contains both videos and mp3) into the library, both the mp3 & video appears, even though the library is supposed to be for Videos... Now its a lot easier to playback media from the computer directly onto the N900! Cheers Update : The Mp3 / Audio playback works fine.. but for videos, they appear in the N900 but not all playable.. and some stutters / screen freezes while the audio plays. Could it be codec related? or perhaps insufficient bandwidth.. hmm.. anybody else experimented with N900's media player + Windows 7 media sharing please comment! Update 2 : I think its codec related. The videos that I can natively play in the N900, I can play via wifi. The videos that I cannot play in the N900, still cannot play.. anyway I've shared 9TB of content with the N900.. it took some time to list out all the songs & videos but so far not much lag, can search for media using the keyboard in the playlist too.. Watching Highlander I (1986) right now live from my PC into my N900.. sometimes its smooth sometimes its lagging a bit, maybe depending on wifi signal (data bitrate)..

The FM transmitter works not only for Songs / Audio, but also for Video!! That means you can mount N900 on the car, use FM transmitter to send the audio to the car speakers, and watch a movie / video & enjoy the sound on the car speakers!! (Caution - Dont watch a movie and drive! *wink wink*)
To do this, play a song first and turn on FM Transmitter & Save (Click on Now Playing on top of the Media Player, click on FM transmitter, select your desired frequency & save), then go back to media library and play a video instead. The FM Transmitter will continue to transmit..!! |

One question.
This phone has 256MB RAM, rite? What's the idle memory consumption for this phone? I see mine one is quite high when its idle (no 3g connection, not connected to wifi). Its shows here the consumption is about 240MB. Only left below than 10MB. Is it normal? This post has been edited by numanuma: Apr 3 2010, 10:25 AM |

It's great during traffic jam or traffic lights; I don't really pay much attention to the videos, but putting the videos on, somehow makes you less stressful when traffic jam or you won't feel you're stuck in the jam/waiting for traffic light for very long.

The point is because u do not know what you want u only cause confusion to people that reads it. Dont you notice nobody talks about what N900 can do or any new software only about your confusion between N900 and so called N920?

 N900  N97 For some unknown reasons, it seems that my N900 are very bad in taking pictures. Most of the pictures I've taken are in extremely dissatisfying quality. My old N97 outperforms N900 in almost every lightning condition when it comes to photo taking. This post has been edited by Ash: Apr 3 2010, 03:52 PM |

QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Apr 3 2010, 03:55 PM) Is there possibe your exposure is too high. Because N900 is not like N97 if u set the camera setting it will store in memory but N97 everytime u change setting u turn it on it will go to default Exposure is at 0.0 when I took this picture. Took another picture using automatic mode. I just noticed the previous one I took was in macro mode. N900 What do you think about this? It seems like the one taken using N97 is still much better.

QUOTE(k-bkeat @ Apr 3 2010, 10:29 PM) but its not new. it was bought around nov-jan. im not sure.. @ RM1K, that's a big steal, never seen so low 2nd hand N900 before, even RM1.5K is rare. Hope you unit is in good condition, if yes, then you're very lucky and should be grateful/thankful about it.btw, thx alot andy. u reply as fast as a lightning xD Perhaps because you're not familiar with smartphones pricing and Nokia's high end model pricing; Even the official set @ RM2280 is considered cheap, considering Nokia's high end device official set is usually > RM2.5K. The N900 is currently most powerful Nokia's N series phone and yet, it's only priced RM2280 for official set. This is probably to compete with the market and other competitor which also priced around the same price range. Even before N900 AP set available, those that import the phone personally are selling it for around RM3.3K and there is people who buy it, and the warranty? None, you can register online but the warranty will be in US. So, if there're people willing to pay RM3.3K for a no warranty device, you can imagine official set selling for RM2280 is a good price or not. QUOTE(k-bkeat @ Apr 3 2010, 11:35 PM) hey guys, anyone has any idea where to get invi shield bside zaggshield and tan alliance? they takda stock... I think it's better you research more on ZaggShield... it's not like other screen protector. You need to know how to apply, the process is different; and the result and effect it different from normal screen protector. There's rubbery feel to it.The good thing is the protection is good, but the feel and look is not a desireable factor for some people. For me, I prefer Crystal Clear and smooth touch. Even for normal screen protector, there're already 4 different types. Go find out from the screen protector seller. And these are much much more cheaper than Zaggs and it's easy to apply.

Here 2 screenshot of Tweego.
The Login interface, is pretty nice and simple ..but then the only problem is the REMEMBER ME cant click..LOL and here the time line interface  as everyone know this is still early stage for this apps, thus only one time line available (no Mention and DM timeline..hope they develop it soon and it will b as cool as tweetdeck XP). But somehow it kinda takes long time to update ur tweet. In addition, no setting available for Tweego eg can set how long u wan the tweet update each time. I would like to have Tweego in widget as well like blackberry Ubertwitter so it can run on dekstop instead minimize it. Well, hope the update will become better and better XP This post has been edited by jloi: Apr 4 2010, 09:09 AM |
