I will try to use another charger tonight. also, i found a few more problem with this unit. - i cant turn off the call forwarding option, even when i choose "No" and click save, when i open back the call forwarding menu, it will still tick the forwarding option. - then i try to change the fon number in the call forwarding option, let say i manually enter a number or simply choose from contact, it will says "invalid number". - the latest one, i couldnt enjoy Angry Bird Rio anymore, when i click on the icon to launch it, it will open a window for a while, then the window will close without even displaying the game title. tried uninstall from the App Manager and then install back, still the same. Any idea? i hope sifus here can help me solve my misery, crossing my fingers not to give up this fon after using it for a week only. thanks all.

You should uninstall preenv, maybe missing some drivers, try install the latest version

Geeking since 1985! Senior Member 7,037 posts Joined: Apr 2006	QUOTE(retro_rave @ Apr 13 2011, 09:52 AM) last 2 days i bought a new battery... coz i tot my original battery is spoilt. but, even with this new battery, i fully charged before i go to sleep, at about 1am. I woke up at 730am, the battery totally drain out. something wrong with my fon or the new battery? PS: I have deactivate wifi too! Well, battery life is a touchy subject with the N900. Under heavy use, my old N900 lasted like 3-4 hours while underclocked with the 2nd lowest brightness settings. And by heavy here I mean 10 MicroB windows open constantly. That was on PR1.2 BTW, things SHOULD be slightly better with the latest CSU. Although not by much I think. Anyhow, thanks to that history of mine with the N900, I found a new way to keep myself entertained with the TelefonSaya 4. LaunchDeamon editing. It's comparable to editing Init.D on the N900. Bless our common *nix lineage. It's fun, and might potentially brick your device. Sounds like just the thing for an extras-devel junkie like me. A shame though it's far harder to restore a TelefonSaya compared to the effortless restore of the N900. Next up, editing the shared.artwork file manually, so I can theme the whole UI without WinterBoard. Yes, this can brick the phone too lol. Oh what fun.

With PR1.3 + heavy modification like mine maybe you can squeeze out 1 extra hour compared to your PR 1.2 N900. Hardcore modification of Telefon Saya is real btch.To much restriction.People prefer winterboard because it's GUI based modification tool.But you won't be able to change too much things in OSsaya. OSsaya is really boooring in term of functionality & eye candy.I think even MeeGo(tablet version) demoed few days ago is way better looking.

Type dpkg --help in terminal (with root access) to list down all package management command. @retro_rave I'll reply your pm tonight.I might need to write slightly longer than usual pm for you But for now I'll say if you want to learn about maemo you can start learning basic debian/maemo terminal codes for fun. PS:Sorry for the late reply.Was banned for 1 day.

Slumber Mode Senior Member 5,105 posts Joined: Mar 2007 From: In front of my desktop/laptop/phone	hJAzuhogdHk This is the MeeGo tablet version.Sleek isn't it? Also I really wish Nokia will stop play around Maemo/MeeGo.If you plan to use the crappy WP7 then go ahead & use that particular OS only. I don't understand why they still want to release Maemo 6 device anymore.It's a real pain to see another half-baked Maemo device. @TimothyTham I think frontpage got the guide. WinSCP is program that will enable you to establish wireless connection connecting your computer to your phone.

OSsaya is really boooring in term of functionality & eye candy.I think even MeeGo(tablet version) demoed few days ago is way better looking. Well, I do agree that to much restriction is in place with OSsaya, but for now, I can still cope with it. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « In the end, living with a TelefonSaya is like living with the N900 for me - IN THE SENSE THAT both has their pros and cons, and it's all a matter of being able to take the bad in with the good. Where the N900 has raw flexibility and power, the TelefonSaya has a seamless user experience. Where I enjoy working ON the N900, I enjoy working WITH the TelefonSaya. Where I hated the instability of the N900 (trust me, mine needed regular reboots), I hate the fact that the TelefonSaya sucks at getting a decent signal. The TelefonSaya is really not as bad as you might think, especially if it's Jailbroken. That is, if you forget for a while its extreme need to exist with iTunes (which I circumvent with JB stuff anyway), and it's extreme ability to not get a good signal in low signal areas (it's epic, believe me. And I used to think the N900 had reception problems. My TelefonSaya drops calls like it was born to do it). But it really was surprising just how much you can actually do while working with the TelefonSaya one handed, while doing other stuff at the same time. It's almost as efficient as my old E71. I really wasn't expecting that, having hated SayaDevices for so long. Although I'm STILL getting an E6 as a backup phone, because it fills most gaps the Telefonsaya has (and it has a lot lol). I kinda like the subtle eye candy of OSsaya. Especially when sped up with FakeClockUp as the stock animations are FAR TOO SLOW lol. Plus functionality wise, I find that the "there's an app for everything" philosophy is something that really works sometimes. But like everything else, this is very subjective. To sum up, no I'm not promoting the TelefonSaya. It just happened to fill nearly all my needs for now. Who knows, maybe next year a Nokia WP7 phone would be the next device that would fill my needs of that particular point in time pulak (God forbid). And why am I posting my TelefonSaya hacking exploits here? Because the iPhone user community at large is filled with a large number of idiots who think that Jailbraking = free Jack Sparrow stuff (or newbs with ZERO tech skills who DEMAND to be spoon fed without even attempting to READ UP BY THEMSELVES), and the only people I know of who can truly understand the joys of tweaking and hacking your mobile devices are N900 users and ex-users. Or the Android guys. Problem is, I don't really like Android much, and I can't really explain why. This post has been edited by Eiraku*: Apr 14 2011, 02:51 PM

Give it some time & dedication & anyone can mod their preferred.This is where having open source OS comes as advantage.You don't have to care much about legal stuff. My principle always been performance > eye candy That's why my phone look very dull but have a very fluid performance even though I'm running at 600MHz only. And yes,600MHz is enough to run games like Asphalt5 without lagging.

Tried webOS games installer from App Manager? You'll need Angry Birds Rio's ipk file. I do think that the deb packaging for Angry Birds Rio have some issue.I had the same crashing issue when I tested the deb file yesterday.After a while I gave up & went to to my ipk type of installation.
