I still prefer Maemo.Overall Maemo offers better OS experience.Only thing Android is better than Maemo is the number of available application.
Nokia N900 Thread V2, Firmware FR 1.2 is FINALLY OUT

Downloading Opera now.
Been using Opera for windows for years.Exited to see whether the mobile version will have same function as desktop version. Too bad the Opera team don't want to confirm on whether there will be final version of Opera for Maemo.

QUOTE(Andy214 @ May 21 2010, 02:24 PM) The updates in leaked PR1.2 is disappointing, hope they actual PR1.2 is a MAJOR difference. And yes, you NOT only required to re-install eveything, you need to re-DOWNLOAD everything; Unless you keep the installation files, actually they should give the option to save the installation files. Plus, the App Manager is resource heavy, when it's running, better to let it finish its job first. Hope they're able to improve on that. I think PR 1.2 is meant to improve the stability of the OS.Maybe there is another PR update planned to update application and evrything.I've never experience the wifi batt drain bug honestly. Maybe there's something you installed? They need more stable hildon-desktop and all the core processes, better memory management for these processes so it doesn't hang or stop responding to ensure smoothness. Anyway, Android 2.2 Froyo update list looks extremely promising, with Flash 10.1 and claimed improvements of up to 5X and it's coming in June???. The Droid/Milestone running 2.1 is already very smooth. Nokia has lotsa catch-up to do, and they should pay more attention to N900 as I see them concerntrates a lot on MeeGo project, and also Symbian^3. N900 is sort of like an unfinished product, they should first emphasize on it first, but seems to me, they're preparing for MeeGo device to replace this N900 and save all the hassle. Hope they can really put more attention on N900. It's a superb device but with very poor support and updates from Nokia, the community support is far far better. Another possible scenario is maybe Nokia will just release PR 1.2 and straight away offer MeeGo for N900 after it is released.If MeeGo is really shaping up well maybe this will be the smarter move. QUOTE(ahtiven @ May 21 2010, 02:28 PM) Droid/Milestone; Android 2.2 It's always happens to me too.Even till now sometimes I feel like I should have get Milestone instead.aye.. **ish having the grass-is-greener-on-the-opposite-river-bank-syndrome** *sniff* *sniff* Android is better in term of software support.If only Nokia add more apps in OVI store,I'll be very happy. QUOTE(nicholas_oh @ May 21 2010, 07:41 PM) I'm using it.Using it to connect to my YM.Works really well.Using Opera as my browser now.It's really well done for alpha version.Opera even included some of the desktop function for mobile version. Downside is it's currently not supporting flash and loading of website isn't quite as fast as MicroB |

QUOTE(PrideNeverDie @ May 22 2010, 01:03 PM) hi guys, i'm really considering to buy either the n900 or milestone. actually i have preference for nokia as i have always liked and supported nokia. my current phone is E90. the outlook of communicator series is quite bleak. i dun think they will bring out a communicator successor to E90 soon. For me the main attractions of Milestone is capacitve touchscreen & android os(have lots of apps).but reading many opinions here, seems like many n900 user regret not getting the milestone instead. yet milestone doesn't have the 32GB flash compared to n900. i would say that's a major tradeoff with having a PR1.2 now in a milestone. what say you guys? get milestone now coz it got better support, or get n900 and hope and wait they will come out with support but content coz the hardware spec chosen i superior? concerning the price of both devices they are roughly similar. but which phone has better price/worth ratio? pls share ur opinions. i am really itching to change to touch phone and also my e90 is dying (bluetooth not working, earport spoil). thanks guys But comparing rest of features I would still say that N900 is the better phone.For those who would like to buy this phone,you guys should know that Maemo is still an incomplete project.There are still some additional phone function required to make N900 a true fully functional smartphone + internet tablet.There are some who's saying that Nokia is developing multi touch for resistive screen. My best guess is Nokia will spend more time on MeeGo and will offer it to N900 once it's released.From what current development look like,MeeGo shaping up very well.Lots of so call "defects" in Maemo 5 are corrected in MeeGo.People don't have to be scared of lack of apps for Maemo 5/MeeGo also.Once QT application really takes off we'll get much more applications. All I can say is N900 have a bright future ahead. |

QUOTE(Andy214 @ May 24 2010, 11:15 PM) They emphasize a lot on MeeGo, it's development is consistent and very fast, but PR1.2 takes ages. Previous MeeGo release (console version) there was a date mentioned and accurately it was launch on that date. Now they announce MeeGo 1.0. They're really neglecting PR1.2, it's very sad.... If MeeGo is comes out really good it's not a bad thing isn't it?Btw, Android 2.2 already available for Nexus One, and it comes with Flash 10. The others will need to wait as there is customization for each manufacturer. It's zee battery... even when you put your phone to charge, you'll feel the warmness, or you can call it hot. If you have the DC-11 Nokia Charger, when you used it to charge you can feel the DC-11 gets warm, or you can call it hot. If you guys were given choice between MeeGo 1.0 & PR 1.2 which 1 do you want to try 1st? |

![]() This is the official MeeGo UI.From what I gather Nokia putting more emphasis on phone functions on MeeGo.I'm afraid that MeeGo will loose somethings that we were too used with Maemo. |

QUOTE(fai79ruz @ May 25 2010, 08:32 PM) This issue is far from over.Most probably Nokia will eventually release a variant of MeeGo for N900 if the N900 users push Nokia hard enough.This situation happened with N770.That's why there a maemo edition called "Hackers Edition". |

QUOTE(Eiraku @ May 25 2010, 08:44 PM) Nokia will not release Meego for N900, but Meego (the org) will release Meego on the N900, even if it's just the dev edition. One of these days I'm really gonna light up fire the TM HQ.Cannot even open the maemo talk site now.You've got your Meego hacker's edition right there. Here's a thread in Maemo.org saying just that: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=674858#post674858 Anyhow, I've really gotten used to the quirks of Maemo, so a release like PR1.2 which is mostly bugfixes with so little new things is actually quite welcome, lol. I just want the darned thing to run well without freezes and bugs, features can be added by the community later. Or better yet, Nokia should make the whole Maemo 5 and everything that comes with it open source and watch as a rabid community creates the craziest phone the world has ever seen, at a very very slow pace. Aspire,is there any red colour epic case cover? |

Any leaked PR 1.2 user here who already jumped ship to official PR 1.2?
Is there any improvement? |

But if it was up to me, the entire net should be all text and pictures anyway lol. That was during the dial up time |

While most of people are interested in PR 1.2,I'm more interested in upcoming OVI Store refresh & application addition.

I'll give you 1 better reason why you should use manual flasher.
Most of us use streamyx/wifi to update firmware.And nowdays most of the users experiencing frequent dc.Better use the manual flasher to avoid bricked phone. Official PR 1.2 been in my download folder for few hours now.Somewhat lazy to install it because later need to update every single program....
