QUOTE(acks2257 @ Jul 16 2010, 05:54 PM) i think its not how it work.. this is something like dc-11, i think it come with an internal battery.. but its solar charged.. i mean the internal battery will get damaged as well if u leave it out in the sun.  those kind of solar ext batteries also come with adapter, u can use it as a normal ext battery. solar only for emergency cases, not for daily use. |

Just re-flash again and don't do any application restore then everything will be fine. only backup/restore items such as contacts, calendar, media files. restoring the rest will cause conflicts with newer versions of files/settings from the new firmware. even applications that are installed on older firmware, might be linked to older versions of system libs, thus restoring the apps might not work. always reinstall apps when update/reload firmware. same like any desktop OS as well, u cant expect to delete c:\windows folder and reload windows only and expect stuff in c:\program files to just magically work. even if it works when u restore apps and settings like that, usually hildon-desktop or hildon-status or widgeting will use more processing % and consume battery.

with my modded split-y usb cable, the command "hal-device bme" output is
maemo.charger.type = 'wall charger' with normal usb cable, the command "hal-device bme" output is maemo.charger.type = 'host 500mA' takes about 90-110 minutes charging a flat battery with the modded cable, charging while the device is switched on. i guess its charging with 500mA + 500mA = 1000mA almost same like the wall charger i would say... nokia wall charger is 1200mA Added on July 16, 2010, 7:43 pmhttp://www.energizer.com/products/energi-to-go/Pages/cell-battery-charger.aspx this looks small and pocketable. also it would work with my sanyo eneloops... http://www.ladyada.net/make/mintyboost/process.html or you can try this... i can tell you that AA portable chargers are powerful. because AA batteries have high mAh even though lower voltage.

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Jul 16 2010, 05:49 PM) Thus the 1000ma output Just Mobile Gum Being the better choice, as everything else I know of ONLY outputs 500ma = would only charge effectively if the phone is idle. note....i'll try with the XP2000 first.... But even then, it's still nowhere as fast as the wall charger, although by using USB packs the effective running time of the phone gets extended by a few long hours (phone draws power more from USB charger than internal battery. @cloud3818: Just get what you need. The XP2000 is good for a full charge up (not completely though) and the XP4000 is good for 2x that. Anyhow, enough of that. I just got my Otterbox, and from what I'm seeing so far, it's worth every sen. Main issues: 1) Had to korek my own lanyard/strap hole (actually made a mistake and made 2) 2) The top part of the keyboard (the small strip of empty space) now has been blocked by the thick top cover (the top row is now slightly harder to type with). 3) The unlock slider and stylus is harder to access. 4) Provided screen protector looks cheap. ... but everything else is top notch, especially in terms of design. It's actually not just stupidly mahal branded rubberised case + silicone liner. The seams are actually designed to make sure that the part that clips onto the top part never interferes with the one that clips onto the bottom (the main cause of hard case clip breakage). Gonna use for a while before I go and give it a full on review, but I'm liking it so far.  .....or maybe the XP4001 if available....hope i'll be able find it at ipoh..  thanks for all the info wah.....Otterbox....nice...can post some picture of N900 wearing the Otterbox....  is the Otterbox make the LCD difficult to slide? BTW how much u pay for the Otterbox....RM120? This post has been edited by cloud8318: Jul 16 2010, 08:37 PM |

No noticeable added friction when sliding at all (although my N900 is deliberately hard to slide to begin with as I've modded the slider mech). And it's RM95-ish including postage from ebay, not cheap, but with the no-go of the resin case, what other option do I have (that doesn't regularly break like the Epik Rubber case)? .....or maybe the XP4001 if available....hope i'll be able find it at ipoh.. thanks for all the info wah.....Otterbox....nice...can post some picture of N900 wearing the Otterbox.... is the Otterbox make the LCD difficult to slide?

One thing I can tell you though, because it's made to securely fit on your N900, it takes a lot of effort to pull off once you have it on - to the point that an external battery of some sort becomes a must (pulling it off to put your spare BL5J takes so much freakin work that it's annoying). |

BTW the Otterbox u bought is Commuter-Series right? wonder will the DEFENDER Series availsble for N900 soon...  what is the different between DEFENDER Series and Commuter-Series... yes agree.....sliding phone will always difficult put the case on the phone....as long as the case didn't effect the motion of slider...that's a good job from manufacturer side to be honest....even open the ORI back cover is an hard job for me, not to mention add Otterbox on it...  hopefully won't take to long for ur Otterbox full review....sure kena poison after read ur review... ...oh PLS DO NOT include those carzy act as the video below  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ztc4LMImw7s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2egoH96q4Hg oh yeah....almost forget this is my first post as proud N900 owner (just receive N900 from the seller@ 10:00pm) take almost 10min to make first call when COD @aspire2oo6 pls add me on the owner list, thanks |

QUOTE(Andy214 @ Jul 16 2010, 04:49 PM) What about your phone? Do you install System Info Widget to see the processor usage? thanks for helping andy Or use HTOP, click on the CPU part, see which processes is running high on usage constantly. Sometimes I face this, the battery drain very fast and notice some processes is running high and the phone is hot. If you suspect your battery and if you have spare battery or have other phone which uses the same battery, you can try swapping to test.  i run conky, and my processor usage is below 5%. after full recharge (last night) i leave it for a while for 2 hours (idle mode), and my battery drop to 1/4 of bar. i do not own any nokia model that using same battery as n900 so cant do swapping. (now i cant only hoping the pickpocket who stole my nokia 5800 got accident and go straight to hell  )by the way, i think the OS is corrupted. whenever i try to scan for network (wifi/3g) it hang there with loading animation. i was waiting about 10-15minutes for scanning result to appear, but no luck. same happened to file manager, i try to access my file from file manager (default), but it hang. then i try to end task, also cant. but when im using CuteManager to access, it shows no problem. weird, huh?
