RE: Maemo Flasher-3.5 Tool Beta for Fremantle and Diablo released
Hi, From: ext Andre Klapper [mailto:aklap...@openismus.com] your email and the download page do not mention any architectures. Can you please add that information to the download page? We just updated Flasher-3.5 download page and readme file here http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php With binary architecture information flasher-3.5 beta installation packages support. Thanks about feedback so far. I have updated my flasher backlog with request to have also PPC architecture supported for Mac OS X. If we find PPC Mac somewhere I think this can be done easily for final release. I have not tested Windows version in Windows 7 RC yet. If somebody has latest Win7 RC installed I would be interested are there some problems?

Re: Maemo Flasher-3.5 Tool Beta for Fremantle and Diablo released
is it possible to do tablet-tablet flashing? (serious question) most of us now have more than one device and since not all of us have linux or windows available (hiya GA), having a native solution would be a possible quicker workaround gary On Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 1:36 PM, Ryan Abel rabe...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 2:43 AM, jarmo.ti...@nokia.com wrote: One step forward and two steps back.

Yes, because PPC OS X is basically the only thing I have access to on a regular basis. Yes, you can tell the installer that it should check the architecture.

RE: Maemo Flasher-3.5 Tool Beta for Fremantle and Diablo released
Hi, I found something to comment from this last email :). access to on a regular basis. Yes, you can tell the installer that it should check the architecture. No, you shouldn't be If same installer can be used to install both x86 and PCC binaries depending on which PC you run installation package that would be great. Anyhow I think we can make at least separate PCC installation package when we will have PCC Mac to make it. that it should check the architecture. No, you shouldn't be doing that because you should be compiling a PPC binary. Nobody has told me if PCC binary can be build on x86 Mac. If not it will take some time to make PCC version of flasher-3.5 even when it is just rebuilding (at least in theory it should be just rebuilding task).

Hi, [jot] some answers below... From: ext gary liquid [mailto:liq...@gmail.com] Sent: 01 July, 2009 15:58 To: Ryan Abel Cc: Tikka Jarmo (Nokia-D/Helsinki); maemo-users@maemo.org; maemo-develop...@maemo.org Subject: Re: Maemo Flasher-3.5 Tool Beta for Fremantle and Diablo released is it possible to do tablet-tablet flashing? (serious question) [jot] I think it is not possible because Tablet USB port drivers do not support it but I am not sure. What is possible is to use /usr/sbin/fiasco_flasher available from Tablet to flash images from mmc card. most of us now have more than one device and since not all of us have linux or windows available (hiya GA), having a native solution would be a possible quicker workaround [jot] The easies way to do flashing we be from PC but maybe it would be enough for you to flash from inside Tablet.

Re: replacement battery for N810
Not sure that's true. I use the same charger for all my devices, and my E63 battery is definitely bigger than the N800. Both are 3.7V. N800 1300mAh, E63 1500mAh. Just wish they had the leads in the same place so I could swap them back and forth. I would think any charger from a Nokia smartphone would be fine on the tablets. Of course, I have no empirical evidence for any of this. :) K On Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 1:28 PM, Peter Flynn peter.fl...@mars.ucc.ie wrote: Kevin T.
