Yeap I did a factory reset too to fix it, twice in two days. Now its working fine, and I hope it stays so

Quick question, those who've moved on to other/newer phones from N9 - what phone models did you all change to?
I'm still waiting for Jolla..haha

i changed to 808 Pureview...for the camera...and it has native Whatsapp,Wechat ><
if OS-wise, definitely N9 better, too bad no support for it...

I just did it few days back - RM185. Nokia Care tech said have motherboard prob cos battery drain fast when he test with new battery. ask if I want to send to KL to check, I said takda boleh. It'll be a month bf I get it back if send KL.

I asked the clerk abt prices of other repairs - RM300+ for motherboard, RM599 for screen, RM110 for the small door 4 usb charging

Jolla definitely, even i wanted to get myself note2.. but nay....

Yea, N9 not doing very well for whatapps because not support by the official. Can use 3 days bug 2 days... Really sick & tired for chasing the maemo forum to look for clue for the latest patches. After getting 808, my 950 was sitting there collecting dust lol

Thanks eaglehelang. RM185 for battery replacement is rather high but no choice as it is a captive market. RM110 for a small flap of plastic is really obscene. My next phone is going to have removable battery but I intend to use my N9 for another year at least.

Jolla's Sailfish will have very few apps, probably even worse than N9. At least N9 sold a few million units but how many can Jolla sell? I expect only a few hundred thousands to geeks. Although Jolla claims Android compatibility it will work only for the simplest apps as Jolla uses the same technology as BB10 and we know how that has turned out.

Ya, very leceh. The Nokia authorised dealer dont want to do, must send Nokia Care. Next time, for sure I go back to removable battery. I now understand why a lot of people dont want to replace the door, might as well buy on ebay & fix it ourself.

Btw, do you know if hard reset the phone will reduce battery drain ? It drains more even with new battery compared to when new. Nokia Care tech said motherboard have prob but I dont think so & dont want send KL, in case my N9 come back damaged

It's worth a try as the problem could be software and you have nothing to lose. If it doesn't solve the problem then at least you have eliminated one possibility and can send it in for motherboard change. RM300+ for motherboard change is still worth doing.

damn, my N9 went swimming in my washing machine 2 weeks back, after putting it in dry rice, it seems to have some difficulty turning on. I am convinced that it's not damaged( at least not the main board) as I am able to connect to PC, and use Flasher to flash everything again. Not sure what other area i should check, but prolly just leave it sleeping there until i got budget to fix it i suppose

aw, so sad to hear about it

Yeah,it's the most hackable phone I have now and I love hacking, well, I guess I might be getting honami after this, taught now using blackberry z10 loan unit, the user experience is good, tidiness of iOS and option to somewhat customize like android a bit, plus is compatible with some converted android apps, I'd say very solid experience , except that it is priced too high

z10 juz copy buta 2 from N9, nothing so surprise me IMO. Plus it has a lots of bug and sometimes lag for no reason. I got the developer edition to test b4 it reach Malaysia previously, pretty much disappointing i must say.

some minor bugs, yes, however, I do not face much random lags from almost 2 weeks of usage from now, apart from apps that are converted from apk, maybe some software updates already got some of those fixed.?

Although I dont deny it copies a lot from N9, it does have a very neat UI, compared to android IMO, at least the notifications are easier to access, and no matter the screen size it should be much problem, as oppose to Android where u need to reach all the way up. IMO it's a capable OS, dragged down by its own branding and their stupid pricing point.

I kinda like the Z10, the only problem I have, for heavy user like me, the battery suffers to last even for more then half a day, which is a torture to me

no more active user here?

or all now chnge phone edi?

Not sure about other, but i still using it from time to time. Wait for jolla to revive again

mana ada no more, still have still have
will continue to use until Jolla mari

im still actively using N9 as main phone..Wazapp, browsing (srsly), Feedly (via gNewsReader), youtube(via cutetube), Maps+Drive..etc2

wah you can tahan whatsapp on 808? Whatsapp on 808 keep spamming for internet connection when I turn off mobile and wifi..i cannot tahan..i rather use buggy Wazapp on N9

glad to hear that

haha

any news on jolla?

My N9 is still my mobile phone of choice. I don't use Whatsapp so I don't miss it. I'll keep on using my N9 as long as it works. When it conks out (hopefully not for another year) I may switch to a S4. Multitasking apps in Android is a pain compared to MeeGo. Fully offline Nokia maps is still unbeatable and the N9 has a very good music player which is very important to me. I'm not planning to switch to Jolla as I know there will be very few apps for it.
