it is normal??! thx=D so i dont have to do anything=) btw..can explain whats the use for ram usage and cpu usage? im a techno noob=(

Yes, your ram usage is 114.91 out of 239.79
239.79 is the maximum available. So your N900 is using 114.91 only, which is 48%

ram usage.114.91mib| 239.79mib 48%
swap usage. 1.13mib| 767.99mib 0%
roots 87.78min| 227.76mib
home 1.62gib| 1.97gib


Normally when your swap usage is high, up to 120MB or more, you might start to experience some lag especially if it hits 150MB. So, if you notice this, you can try restart your N900.

Also, you can install a widget on the desktop to monitor processor and ram usage. If you notice the processor is stuck on 100%, then quickly open HTOP and see which process is causing it and kill it, or if you're unsure you should kill the process, you can do a restart.

What you want to kill?
Tap on the process, then tap on the "Kill" below.
It will ask for confirmation, confirm to kill the process.

Take note some process are system/core process and shouldn't be killed. If you're unsure, just do a restart.

Guys, i took my dad to buy a phone....... and when i mentioned N8, they said "DONT' GET N8" we no longer wanna bring in!..... all our customers that bought N8 came back with alot of problems.

any feedbacks? what problems? =.= nokia is giving worse customer care for N8 users compared to N900?
*
Correction, Nokia giving more Customer Care to N8 compared to N900 tongue.gif
N900 get more "care" from "The Communities" rclxms.gif notworthy.gif thumbup.gif
If you have problems with your N900 (non hardware related), I think you'll find better support here than Nokia Care tongue.gif

For N8, I'm not really sure about the hardware problems; Maybe due to the "hard to remove" battery, which cause more problem because most users are used to "removing the battery solution". Secondly, if the phone hangs, sometimes you need to remove the battery and let the phone out of power source for a while, and re-try. But with N8, since the battery is hard to remove, this solution is hard to apply.

Anyway, my personal complain on the N8 is:
1. The MONO speaker and the placement of the speaker. Such a shame really with MONO speaker, following the traits of iPride.
2. Lack of physical keyboard; The physical keyboard is really useful in MANY situations. Having using N900 for longtime, using N8 without physical keyboard is really a pain. You're relying fully on the touch screen....
3. Finally, the AMOLED I suppose? It seems, it's normal on N8. I've tested another N8 at Nokia Shop with the picture I taken, seems having similar problems. It's wierd as last time I compare, there seems to be no such problem except on my device, unless that device is still VERY NEW and will become like that overtime.....

Only on N900 .. I read in google.. N900 sim socket is poorly designed..

Is your SIM Card new? Maybe you can try use eraser and rub the Sim Card contact area and try again.

Try to diagnose or try out holding the phone at different place for a short while and see if any area will cause the signal drop???

Anyway, by right, if it looses signal, it should be able to get back the signal without reboot. If yours requires reboot, something must be wrong, could be software/firmware of your device.

When the signal is lost, try put your N900 on the table and don't touch it, see if it able to pickup signals back again.
If still cannot, you can try change the "Network Mode" (under Settings-->Phone)
Change it to other mode, like "Dual", "3G", "GSM", see if there if it able to re-scan and pick-up the signal.
Btw, is your default mode = "Dual"?

Qualcomm unveil DOUBLE DRAGON (Dual Core) with 5X performance improvements? And new Adreno GPU performing similar to XBOX360 and PS3???

I wonder when Nokia launch its first MeeGo device, what spec will it get? If they have confirm the spec long ago, then gone lah by the time it launch.
