I see that before, but putting in front page will make it a one stop setup for N900 without having to search whole Internet for different kind of solution

Yeah, tell me about it.. That phone is for the popular crowd.
I got a friend who gradually admitted the limited functions of it. whistling.gif
Gradually....

yeah, first glance it is great phone, nice screen, quick response, ease of use, everyone using it, be outdated if you not on the iphone wagon....gradually, you found out you cannot do this, you cannot do that, you can't change theme, even your grandfather iphone using the same theme as you are, you have limited choice of music/video format, you can't view flash webpage, you can't change battery, you can't add more memory, etc...etc...

Hey everyone..may i ask what is da meaning of repositories? i read da first page, and say we should add it/install it? but i don really wat's for and wat it is... ><

Thanks a lot in advance~ biggrin.gif

it is file path to maemo programs

type this http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle-1.3/free/ in your browser you can even access it via pc

for N900, putting the repositaries path will tell it where to look for files

starting from extra folder to ext-test to ext-dev

dev folder are experimental program which is not recommended for beginner to install

test folder are tested program from dev stage and open for public testing before moving up to extra which is consider safe for the phone to use

Hello,

im in the middle of upgrading firmware. Cant understand this:
Step 4 Extract and install the Maemo flasher tool
Step 5 Copy R.bin & RE.bin files to C:/Program Files/maemo/flasher-3.5 directory

step 4 Q: Where to get maemo flasher tool?
step 5 Q: Is it C:/ for windows? Copy those 2 files in windows partition C?
*
step 4 http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php

step 5 put the .bin in the same directory where you install the flasher tool

yes, it is for windows xp, vista and 7, of course you can download other OS such as Mac or Linux if you have that installed in your PC

p.s. google/yahoo is the best tool for searching info icon_rolleyes.gif

just a few questions...

mms is being sent as data? then won't the charge for big pictures be expensive? Do you guys know the rate to transfer 1 picture? We're still being charged 0.25 cents (Maxis) aside from the data transfer rate? So how much will that be?

I ask cause my data was charged a whopping RM130 this month! i don't recall using that much of the mobile internet service. I was really upset that they do not warn you that you have surpassed the 100MB or 500MB limit after subscribing to the passes. Really bad that they don't notify you. It's almost like their trying to con you under the radar.

Once and never again will I use the mobile internet service

sms charged regularly right?
*
N900 don't support normal MMS method, they create a small program call FMMS and it use internet data to send MMS back and forth, hence depends on your telco, each KB is how much, if you send/receive a big data packet in, I won't surprise for the RM130 charges

p.s. Maxis don't cap user on data usage cause all rich guy using Maxis, Digi will cap the max usage but also around that figure (i think is around 120)

p.p.s You can ask your friend to email the photo to your mailbox, then you find a wifi area and online to get the picture, alternate method is get a dataplan, but I remember some sifu said turn off your internet connect and set to always ask, then when something coming in, it will ask for online, not sure it works for mms or not

even with normal use, why N900 cannot be used as normal phone? give you a gadget doesn't mean you have to tear it apart and understand all the coding =.=
