Re: fm radio
Hi, I had battery life problem recently after os2008 installation on my n800. I started investigating this by re-fleshing new instance of OS, gradually install new software and use strace to monitor what was going on. What I found was each second or couple of second there was a process querying /proc/something-i-cant-remember-now against headset connectivity. I stopped fmradio home aplet and it was gone. I don't think it caused my battery lasting only one day, but it may explain how fmradio 'knows' whether headset is connected or not. cheers Pit On Jan 10, 2008 9:32 AM, Andrew Flegg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jan 10, 2008 9:28 AM, Klaus Rotter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Kalle Valo wrote: No, you're not stupid.

There must be some software mechanism because the switch to headphone output for audio is controlled in software, rather than hardware. This can be seen by the fact that the FM radio application allows audio to be output through the speakers when a pair of headphones is acting as aerial.

Battery Life N800 + OS2008
Hi, I know battery life topic was brought to this forum, but now I'd like to ask about new OS2008 and battery life. I have noticed significant decrease since I moved to OS2k8. I didn't ask before as I was waiting for official release. Now I can confirm this is issue (in my case). Running on OS2007 I could use my nokia for about 5 days. Now it last for about 1 day and I have to re-charge. I know CPU works faster and this means more power as well as there are more improvements etc etc. Is this only one explanation? I usually try to close all applications I don't need when not using my tablet. Does anyone experience the same problem? Maybe this is coincidence and my battery/charger is broken? However it charges and everything looks fine. thanks Pit P.S. I really appreciate new OS. Most applications I use is already ported. Everything is much faster and apart from my battery life concerns it looks fantastic.

Re: 4.2007.38-2 available
If you are asking about: This new release (version number 4.2007.38-2) provides a software fix for a bug http://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204 which may have appeared while copying large amount of data over-the-air or from external SDHC memory card to internal memory or vice versa. In some cases the downloaded data may have corrupted - and now all data are wiped completely - i hope not ;)) And more seriously: Beware that flashing a new image on the Nokia 770 or on the Nokia N800 will remove all user changes to the system, including preferences, bookmarks, news feeds, user installed applications... Everything not on the memory card will be gone and the device will behave as if just purchased with the single exception that any previously-set lock code will be kept and not reset to the factory-default of 12345 (even the code is not preserved on some images).

Re: intending to buy a n 770
Hi, As I suggested, you can probably start with list archive, this is what I did before I bought my N800. There are also some nice presentations on YouTube. I think this is Nokia who mainly cares about basic linux distro, being more exact, there is maemo community supported by Nokia (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). As I said, this is really nice device with a lot of potential. However there are still some features missing, e.g. please have a look thread about PIM functionality not being implemented very well, it is also not a GSM/GPRS phone etc. All after all it is matter of time and learn some basic things to personalize this to one's needs.
