Guys, my phone kind of lag lately, I open conky and surprice to see the Home is only 3% left(75.42MB)! while my rootfs still have 35%(79.81MB)

Which folder is consider as Home? the Opt folder? I hardly install anything, I uninstall a few obsolete program and got back about 10MB(before is about 65 something), where the rest goes?

edit 12/3 : I uninstall another game and oracle java and manage get back another 50MB to 6% now (123.18MB) but still a long way, where all the space gone?

Your home folder is, /home/user, no surprise.

By normal means you won't be able to access this folder on other machines except you use SSH or SFTP.

Locally (on the phone) itself you'll be able to access it via the terminal, so to put a rundown of what you need to do:

Figure out config folders of apps you don't really use anymore. Highlighted that in red and in bold, because it's important so that you do get to know what's inside the /home/user/ folder. One mistake for one app and your settings for that one app all goes ka-pish. Those folders are usually hidden and they usually have a period ( . ) prefix before the folder name. Identify those folders and delete them.

By the way do take note some folders especially /home/user/MyDocs. This folder is where your N900's internal storage is, and the one you usually access when you plug in your N900 via USB Mass Storage mode on PC.

Also one of the possible causes of lag (may vary from person to person) is because of your uptime, where heavy swapping occurs between the phone's internal RAM and the swap memory of the phone. Usually what I'd do is a reboot when the lag gets too unbearable (I've missed several calls thanks to it!).

One more thing: I recommend issuing the command (as root):

CODE
apt-get clean


in order to clean the files your app installers (Application Manager, Faster Application Managers, apt-get, what have you) have downloaded.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will try the apt-get clean command first, I rebooted my phone for few times, everything is working normal, just the overused HOME kinds of worried only. I don't heavy tinker my phone, I suspect is all those cache file never cleaned :-)

apt-get clean seem to have no effect on the missing spaces doh.gif in fact the spaces will going up and down, from balance 68MB to 110MB

I'm not install anything new anyway (in fact nothing new for me to install sweat.gif ), so I will just let it be.

unsure.gif time to get a new phone as it is already long behind the technology, but I still awe with the versatile of this phone, nothing can match it's freedom to manipulate the phone thumbup.gif

Hi can i ask nokia n900 can download facebook games (e.g diamond dash, bejeweled, sugar candy crush). Thank you

I don't think so, N900 only support flash up to 9.4, there are some emulator out there but it is not a real flash v11.

As much as I'd hate to admit it, I might have to retire my N900 as my caller phone (but still retain it) due to loose USB cable, haven't been able to properly recharge it without trying to force the cable to fit in so that it connects properly to the chargers' contacts. cry.gif

I was hunting for a secondhand N900, failing that, a secondhand N9 in Kajang near Metro Plaza today but so far no luck. If any of you guys near there who knows where I can find either an N900 (tough luck tongue.gif) or an N9 (still tough luck too laugh.gif ) tell me ASAP. Thanks laugh.gif

This phone is very rare, unless really need money, i don't think anyone will sell it, I am one of them laugh.gif

My 2 years old N900 still scratchless and working fine without any tempering with OS (as native), I intend to keep it eventhough I jump boat to WP already rolleyes.gif
