you got reboot or not.
if yes try the removing battery for 5 min and then reinsert the battery again..(never tried this method usually i see a lot of forumers suggest this)

BTW if none work manual flash will settle ur nightmare i guess.

Restarting all okay?

Yeah 4% is a big difference. The libraries are always the biggest part in root more with the more apps installed.

The moveroot script still works like a charm though but do use with care...

Ok most likely your menu file is corrupted.

Using Putty go into your phone's terminal and delete the hildon.menu file

CODE
rm -f /home/user/.config/menus/hildon.menu


After you reboot, it should regenerate the original file. Hope this helps wink.gif

Well I used it many times with no problems. Freed up about 10%, basically it moves the nokia maps stuff and local information. However the coution is that for some moving the locales results in a broken UI cause the locale info is missing.

Your app menu is corrupted. Follow the instructions I set.
Search google and download putty. Login to your phone IP. Login info should be the one set when you installed ssh server.

_____________________
Okay, I am feeling generous today, some instructions
1. Get Putty.exe from here (http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe)
2. Put it anywhere on your desktop.
3. Try to get the WLAN IP of your N900, your router page might list it.
4. Using Putty.exe, input the IP of your N900 and enter
5. Login using your SSH password, Login ID is "root" while the password would be the one you set on your N900 when you installed SSH Server
6. Do the edits below:-
CODE
rm -f /home/user/.config/menus/hildon.menu


Alternatively, you can add a shortcut to terminal on your desktop if still possible. Then do step 6 via the terminal, after gaining root of course via 'sudo gainroot"

Just follow rest of the steps wink.gif Seems to be pretty clear, you dont need to install anything on N900 if you already got SSH server installed. Just login to your N900 via putty and do step 6


Added on November 5, 2010, 12:08 am@ meLi: Yea, seems I need to install the plugins via the facebook installer. I just kicked it off after I flashed to PR1.3 lol No wonder nothing there

Hmm, you mean rootfs = a lot of space, application memory = full? Or the other way around?

The app memory partition is the 2gb partition btw.

then i cant install more webos games or other stuff after no more partition space?

jananan posted a way to install webos games to MyDocs (rather then the app ppartition) a few posts back... Or maybe I saw it on TMO, not sure. Anyways, go check.

Hmmm, I now feel like modding a dpad/trackpad on the face of the N810, so much wasted space lor on the front bazel, I wonder if the parts for a dpad/small trackpad can fit in there.

Re-wiring will be a total pain though.

Either that or coming up with a smooth level bazel ala the N900 (the N810 has an edged touchscreen like the 5800). But actually having to fabricate new parts is ugh really.

it's complicated to do it, i also don't even understand what they says.. haiz... they did the deb files for d game easy but using the space...
