yeap....


just an update... at 5am i manage to save the fon after loading back firmware 20.2010.36-2, manage to get back the imei no. and no sim lock occur.

so, now, the question is is the firmware 3.2010.02.8 unstable?

im not sure of that... yesterday was my first day of using the fon.

when i went back, run navifirm, look for device RX-51, i found in the list that was the latest one. so i tried to flash to that one.

hi all again...since im new to these maemo fiasco thingy... i guess i will be asking alot of nooby question... please dont fire me k.

anyway, today everything works fine... except for 1 thing.... i dont here a sound from my wired handsfree....

tried using media player, the sound comes out from the fon speaker. tried calling in and out also the same.

using bluetooth handsfree to my car HU, it was fine.

does that a sign that maybe the fon jack is faulty? if so, how much to repair??? i like to use it to listen to music while doing my work... so i guess its pretty much important to me.

thanks mashimarow and hengguowei....

went back home this afternoon, tried with its original handsfree, it detected perfectly... and fast too! then i've tried with my ancient Philips SBC HP200 headphones... it works great. i guess u guys r 100% correct.... its fussy with handsfree....

ermm hengguowei... came across somewhere about FCAM. but did not go thru as i was bz looking for method to revive my fon. i'll check it out later. thanks.

and i guess next step is to learn how to install apps that doesnt comes with installer packages... hv read a few pages of debian and maemo... but the more i read the more blurr i am...

just wondering.. worst come to worst... if i wrongly run a destructive cmd or running unstable apps... or toying with root or kernel etc, what will happened? will the phone simply brick? can it be recovered by flashing back the firmware?

playing with it as im writing this... hehehe

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!

yeah... i oso was thinking, i dont think the display will affect since i turn off the display before i go to sleep. so i dont think brightness is the problem, i guess.

anyhow, today i turned off gps, turn to offline mode for the telco network, no widget running, but still my battery drained out. 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.

just now i have tried to uninstall preenv and reinstall it back.... i think i do hv the latest ver, how to confirm anyway??

apart from that, my other WebOS games works nicely, except for angrybirds rio.

any other suggestion that i can try?

haha... ok confirmed i have the 0.1.7 preenv installed and reinstalled. downloaded and installed again the bird file, but its the same.

the icon is there, but when launched, it still do the same thing, open a window than closed automatically.

super_evil_alien, noted with thanks bro!

have u tried restarting ur fon?

run root in xterm, init 6.

just wondering, found this from gsmarena:

BATTERY Standard battery, Li-Ion 1320 mAh (BL-5J)
Stand-by Up to 278 h (2G) / Up to 250 h (3G)
Talk time Up to 6 h 30 min (2G) / Up to 4 h 30 min (3G)
Music play Up to 24 h 30 min


did anyone ever get that long? or at least 24hours of standby?

ok... so that really shows something isn't right with my unit. hmm.... maybe i shud go back to the shop that i bought the battery from.

hehe... my new battery last only 4 hours on standby mode, with wlan, network op, gps disabled.

that means i simply leave my fon on standby mode and check every 15mins. 4hours after that, its dead. haihhhh....

well, unfortunately the last one is correct, ap battery... but i dont mind as the shop gives lifetime warranty.

wow!! thanks bro!

i wonder if we can get the Scud 1420mAh@1510mAh battery here?

yes, i do understand.... that's why i replied mine is AP battery... i bought it for rm25 only but with lifetime warranty....

is it possible to test the mAH with multimeter??? any guide?? i have a digital multimeter but i dunno how to use it... company gave to me but i simply throw into the store room.

yesterday went to nokia store at the curve, they quoted rm150 with 6 month warranty.

bro, maybe u can try to delete all files associated with the flasher, download a fresh one and try again?
