It seems so. Wifi switcher messes up 3G autoconnect as well.

As for the tried and true Milestone VS N900 debate, to put it in simple terms (and after all the other long explainations given), it falls to what you want out of the device.

Arguably, the BETTER SMARTPHONE would be the Milestone, but IMHO the more capable MOBILE COMPUTER would have to be the N900.

The smallest netbook that can fit into your pocket thing is right on the mark, as you need to remember, Android is a mobile OS built on top of linux, while Meamo IS linux, tweaked (insufficiently) for mobile use.

And, accordingly, Maemo has IMMENSE untapped potential. Problem is, potential is useless unless utilized. With patience things should (very slowly) improve, but patience is the key word here.

I hope Meego brings better things on the mobile usability front, but I fear that it would come with a reduction of the sheer power and utter customizibility of Maemo.

Either that or we wait for the Mobile Ubuntu project to mature lol.

Anyway, you'll get used to living with a permanently landscape phone. For me, it was my old N-Gage days all over again.

Guys, I would like to ask another question.
If I flash my firmware to titan 800 OC firmware, and i use 600mhz, will it make the battery stay longer?

Depends on which profile you load. It goes from Stock > LV > Ideal > ULV> XLV > Starving as far as voltages go, assuming you set it all to 250-600. Lower voltages = more battery life, IF your N900 can handle it.

Also, lower clockspeeds = lower voltage BUT slower operation = longer time needed per operation before you lock your N900 and put the proc on idle.

So it's actually quite complex.

Simple rule of thumb though, Starving saves the most battery, but runs very (even dangerously) low voltages.

And your plan of running Ideal at 250-600 should, in theory, already be a battery saver over the stock settings, IF your N900 can handle it lar.

I see. Because from previous post, I saw someone said that using titan firmware will get better battery life or something, thats why I ask here to confirm about it. So thats mean it is no different if use titan firmware and stock firmware in normal clock speed?

Just to make things clear

First u must understand eiraku is a person having linux background and what he explain is not at beginner level so it will sound a lil confusing.

What he said was different method and setting of OC gives u different results. For me titan is the most simplest and ideal way it gives u better battery life and super boost speed.

Simple to understand u drive your car at 100kph and 150kph is there a different?

OC is like u running your car @ 150kph but it will sacrifice certain things like for car the engine will get hotter and will take more petrol so for phones u sacrifice certain things that only can be seen in long run except if u are a hardcore person tweaking and testing the phone limit u will face issue in short run. For normal consumer it should be fine for long run

Sorry for not being clear on that. YES, if you use XLV, Ideal, ULV, LV or Starving profiles - you WILL save battery, because lower voltages are used.

But which one will work for you best, that's trial and error. Some profiles might cause your N900 to restart often, because of voltages that are too low.

ULV profile set to 250-600mhz is a good place to start for battery saving (because Ideal doesn't do 250 too well I've read). If that is stable (no restarts and other funny stuff) you can try XLV next, maybe 250-500mhz.

I'm currently on Starving 250-500mhz most of the time, with shortcuts set to push that up to 500-900 when ever needed.

meaning of XLV = Extra Low voltage , Ultra low voltage , Low voltage? <--- i think thats wat it means. For a normal consumer trial and error is risky because they do not know how to get it back on track

To make everyone life easy i have already provided a guide on OC that works for alot of people. only drawback of this OC is sometimes it will clock back to 600mhz without reason. You can always clock it back by few steps.

Here the guide

Haha. I have some linux background as well, but Im not very well in OC stuff.
When he said that got better battery life, so i tot really got something then can save the battery. tongue.gif

logic is simple la if u run at 600mhz u take 5 sec to perform a task isnt tat 5 sec battery drain

Imagine u run at 900mhz u take 2 sec to perform a task isnt that 2 sec drain furthermore titan way got lower voltage drain so indirectly the lower the voltage the less power consumption aka save battery lor

Great way to do it aspire, anyhow the go back to 600mhz bug is related to the Phone app IINM. Lehto's kernels have problem with this.

I THINK Titan's kernel fixed this already in the newest versions, but not sure.

But keep in mind, OVERCLOCKING and MODIFIED KERNELS (Lehto OR Titan) both involve messing with your system files, potentially causing a bricking of your phone and/or an invalidated warranty.

Just to remind.

Anybody found out any program that can sort multiple video files into playlists and then play it through the default player? Or at LEAST play multiple video files Tried canola, no dice. Then kmplayer, not really. Now media box, but it has a problem with volume control.

Don't tell me I havta go back to mplayer, sigh. I kinda like how the default gstreamer handles video.
