Are trying on wi-fi or 3G? It may not work on 3G.

It may have something to do with Ovi store access. Can you log-in and download an app from your phone?

Obviously you missed the earlier discussion. Look back pg. 17 and be surprised.

Same here. Looks like they are down again like yesterday evening.

A-GPS seems to be broken with PR1.2. I used to get fast locking with wi-fi even indoors but not any more. Can anybody else confirm?

Can you guys get a GPS lock indoors as easily as before with wi-fi/3G assist? My GPS is not a problem outdoors but indoors is the problem because the A(ssisted)-GPS doesn't seem to be working.

thanks.

But one good side effect is that it gets rid of the "Swipe to Answer" when you get a call. It will go straight to the next screen where you can accept or reject the call. I like this so I'm sticking with this version. Just have to remember to OFF my phone if I set an alarm to wake me up.

No the app works fine. The alarm only works when the phone is off.

May not be the firmware problem as others using the same firmware are not experiencing it. Are you using MfE? Some message problems come from there.

There is a new version of lpsmagic (v. 1.4.1) which fixed the bugs.

It still doesn't explain why others using the same firmware have no such problems. Maybe it is your social accounts or your operator? I would check these first before replacing the firmware.

Did your indoor GPS sensitivity change after upgrading to PR1.2? The 2 links you gave are not GPS issues related to upgrading the OS. They appear to be due to defective hardware.

Added on March 2, 2012, 11:31 pmIs yours 64GB or 16GB? Mine is 64GB, same with UFO.

Anyway it's not that I can't get a lock indoors, its just not as snappy as before.

Or just forget about it as the GPS performance is ok outdoors where it really matters.

Battery performance is better than most Android phones. It should last you at least one day with heavy use. For me I charge every 2 days with moderate use.

It will be great for your mom because the Swipe os is very simple to use and not much can go wrong.

Why is N9 not suitable for first time touchscreen user? You can master it with 15 sec of instruction. Double tap to unlock, swipe from edge to change screens, swipe down to close app. That all. It's easier than Android or Lumia where you have to learn what buttons to press to unlock, bring up the app screen, the home screen and multitasking screen.

I agree with eaglehelang Lumia not recommended due dependency on Zune unless your mom is also a PC whiz. You also need many actions just to do simple things. I'm sure Andy can tell you more about why Lumia isn't so good for first timers.

You don't need developer mode unless you want to meddle with the os. I deleted my developer mode months ago and don't even miss it. Only a small number of apps are not available in ovi store and those are not essential apps. Firefox and Opera mini are already available for N9. As for 720p higher profile that is more for power users than moms.

OK, aspire2006, you've made your point but I want to read what Andy says about which smartphone is better for moms - N9 or Lumia. Btw, has any seen Andy? He hasn't logged in for 2 days, I hope nothing happened to him.

Nokia 808 thread? He must be thinking another phone.

Anyway, for those who experience inability to get updates after PR1.2 (indicator never stop turning) the problem has been traced to Filemanager - the one which was dropped from ovi store. Uninstall filemanager to cure it.

Doesn't work well for me. Switch the speaker on and off unpredictably even when I'm holding the phone to my face. Unless I hold the phone very still which is impossible. Wasted my money on it.

My indoor A-GPS performance is back to normal now. It was probably due to a missing location-settings.conf file; PR1.2 has nothing to do with it. Those who want more info can get it here:

Yes, but not much difference from supl.nokia.com.
