  1. Liking what I'm seeing with Maemo. The 900 isn't the device for.me tho. Saw a guy boot Mac OSX on his. Took an hour and a half to boot but cool none the less.

    Yeah its useless anyway. Its not even impressive because its just pc emulation software. But i'd recommend maemo to everyone.

    But you're right N900 is not really a phone. The phone is an 'application'. It accessible from the mainmenu. Incomming calls will automatically bring the phone to the front though.

    I'll await 2.1 for Android then see what's what from there. Definitely wanting another Nokia though. 6760 looks cool.


  4. Nope, my 3GS is still running launch firmware, I'm getting a bit worried that one day my carrier will not support it or something.

    It's jailbroken so I can't just update the firmware through iTunes, I'm not quite sure what to do.
    Apparently you update the firmware and then just jailbreak it again, but that seems risky - i'm sure there must be a way to just update with cracked versions of the official firmware.

    Your carrier will always support the firmware - as long as it has the supported baseband then the firmware won't matter. I know people who haven't ever updated to even the 2.0 software (mainly because it works so they're happy) and they work fine. Nah - the thing with jailbreaking and the iPhone is you don't update unless you absolutely have to. If it works then by all means do not touch it.

    I know I'll be updating to 4.0 when it comes, although if it's anything like 3.x problems then maybe not. Usually with jailbroken devices, you need to restore to a clean firmware and then update to the new firmware manually in iTunes (hold Shit and click Restore) then jailbreak again with redsn0w or QuickPwn (at least that's my experience of restoring and re-JBing in the past).

    What have you got installed besides official Apple and App Store apps?

    Oh, that's good, I only wanted to update because GTA Chinatown Wars isn't working - the first app I've got that doesnt work.

    I have a few unofficial apps, Backgrounder, MxTube, iFile, SB Settings, Mobile Theatre, snes4iphone are the ones I use regularly

    Jailbreaking really does make it twice the phone it would normally be, you can do so much more.

    Strange GTA doesn't work on that firmware - you checked the requirements in iTunes?





    I also install the Cydia update, NoAA and ReflectiveDock after getting iFile, Winterboard and SBSettings, and yeah, it's a far better device than if you don't jailbreak it. Hell, I could never have my custom settings and themes if I couldn't.
  8. so after selling it 2 months ago and getting the Hero, i've just ordered a new 5800.I plan on keeping the Hero until the 2.1 update but just had to have a Nokia again.

    So you're gonna use two phones? lol
  10. Anyone here own a HD2? Wondering what people think, you know, everyday users as opposed to someone who tested it once.


  11. Hero is gonna be relegated to tablet PC usage until the upcoming 2.1 update. Then ill see what to do with it from there.

    I was tempted. It's just too big for a phone
