bro~ from 1st page~ it says this~

"Step 1 Access your root using winscp (See network FAQS) or cute explorer
Step 2 Download any (link below) and rename video to n900.avi
Step 3 Copy the video to /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media
Step 4 Go to /etc/hildon-welcome.d/ and edit the default.conf file with leafpad (or something like that)
Your default.conf should be looking like this:
[hildon-welcome]
filename=n900.avi
"

but thing is~ i am using filebox to open that default.conf file in Notes, edit n try to save it~ but it says "files for read only"~
how to enable it for editing? hmm.gif
*
Filebox is for read function only.Use WinSCP for easier root files editing purpose.

N8 froze for about 4 mins...  when try to switch off bluetooth...

the bluetooth dialog box stuck on screen...

had to press pwr btn and hold 8 secs... goes off

only can turn back on when hooked to charger...

dunno low batt issue or bug

since firmware first version i guess can expect bugs...
*
I found the whole "no taking out battery" too troublesome.Some of the issues raised by N8 owners can be solved if battery taken out.

Stephen Elop: Nokia's first MeeGo device 'will be a 2011 event'

Exclusive news for Eiraku
Simply said the OS is not ready for mass consumption.The latest alpha for v1.2(this is the consumer ready version) got major kernel issue.

Since the intended fund that I keep for MeeGo device is free now maybe I should look around for something else to past time...

Update on leaked PR 1.3.
Full OVI Suit support is finally added.

QUOTE
In addition to the 100+ bug fixes, some UI elements have been updated, as well as an apparently new driver to interact with the PowerVR SGX530 GPU, here are some of the user-noticeable changes that should come with PR1.3;

MicroB (browser), Modest (e-mail) and hildon-desktop (desktop UI) have been updated and will provide a much faster experience, less glitching and reduced process pegging.

Universal Contact Search has improved response time for displaying results.

Audio playback no longer causes abnormal high processor usage, and pause/resume playback after a call is much more predictable and works as it should. In addition, the mediaplayer widget ‘play’ button now works.

Portrait mode transition is faster for all applications that support rotation. Feels “constant” and much more deliberate.

Accounts being forced to error-offline during new network connection has been fixed.

Several fixes to Mail for Exchange. Unknown if Google syncing has been addressed.

You can now enter a lowercase letter at the beginning of a sentence.

Camera and image browsing has less “chop” and stuttering. Feels much more fluid.

Delay added to screen unlocking during alarm or phone call. Reduces unwanted input.

I heard it on the investment radio today Nokia already have the Nokia N8 = 5 years ago but they was market share last time didnt expect android and apple to catch up so fast.
Thats why the CEO was fired. When they launch Nokia N8 its too late already.
*
The "touchscreen" idea came up to Nokia's R&D few years ago.But the Nokia CEO's shot down the idea citing the high cost of manufacturing & lack of confident that consumer will buy it.
But in the end their decision came back to bite their @$$
Now they have to bet everything on MeeGo devices.

QUOTE(jananan @ Oct 22 2010, 12:10 PM)
nah i just played with it for a while last night.

tell you the truth, i dont see anything except the camera.

it looks like N8 was never meant to be the flagship.

i had better feeling of a flagship device when i held Nokia N95 8GB

same goes for N97 and N900.. feels like flagship.

but N8 does not convey that feeling.

it looks and feels like a gap filler, a temporary solution to save symbian and take the megapixel crown for a while.
*
N8 NEVER meant to be flagship device.
It's more to the average end users who prioritize on multimedia.
Even I do think there is nothing special in N8 expect for the camera/some multimedia functions.
But I have to say all around it's a very good symbian device & Nokia have corrected some mistake done in the past.
If only it was launched early this year Nokia could probably get high profit out of it.

does n900 can install any computer games?
*
If you're dreaming to install modern days games forget it.No phone can.
Because ARM processor do not support X86 execution.
But upcoming Nokia's MeeGo based phones which use Intels processors will enable the X86 in phone.

Added on October 22, 2010, 5:42 pmwhy my n900 say unable to play media , media format not supported.! even my nokia 5800 also can play!  icon_question.gif

This thread exist to guide N900 users & users wannabe to right direction.Not to spoonfeed everything.

Now to your problem.
What type of video are you trying to play?
Try installing MPlayer + SiB.This should allow you play most of avi/mpeg/mp4/mkv/flv files providing the resolution is not too big(eg:720p)
But if you're talking about unable to play any video with default video player after trying to play an unrecognized video format that it's a known bug in Maemo 5 & it's fixed in upcoming PR 1.3

Try the Mplayer + SiB 1st & may the force be with you.

QUOTE(Andy214 @ Oct 22 2010, 05:43 PM)
Add to list:
WarCraft2 & StarCraft2 using Stratagus Engine (incomplete).
Theme Hospital using 3rd party engine, not complete.
I think there is also C&C: Red Alert

There is Quake III: Arena in the repos.

yes..but i managed to get it working suddenly..then,tried again, it doesnt work anymore..looks like bug..it seems that the default driver has the ability to penetrate, bruteforcing and capturing wep/wpa passkey with non-client router/pc...but it took like the whole night to collect enough #data packet..but i think it just some bugs..

problem is even the wifi driver is open, backtrack team is having problem patching it..have yet to install neopwn..didnt have much time...
*
neopwn released a beta & but closed the testing period fast.I didn't have time to test it either.
Some said the full version will be out soon.Let's wait & see.
