N770 firmware still available somewhere?

Hi! At some point I installed HE onto my old 770, but it caused it to crash all the time. As I got a 810 (and then a 900), I didn't bother doing anything about it, but now I think it is a pity to leave the hardware unused. I wanted to downgrade to the non-HE firmware, but seems the Nokia server fo

N900: forcing headphone output?

Is there any way to force the N900 audio output to the headphone plug? The system clearly detects that the headphones are plugged in based on the impedance of the headphones - so if I plug the headset cable into a high-impedance amp input, the "headset" isn't detected so the N900 keeps using the in

no voice-assisted navigation on any maemo device?

As the snow is finally disappearing, motorcycle season is about to start again - and one of the reasons I originally upgraded my 770 to an 810 and then 900 was to get GPS navigation without having to resort to a separate satnav or phone. And on a motorcycle, you need voice instructions, as you can'

Re: Not enough memory

Craig, > If you wanted an iPhone, you should have bought one. Sorry, that is the most pitiful excuse I have heard for someone screwing up the partitioning. Yes, the N900 is intended for technically sophisticated users. No, that doesn't mean every single issue can be written off as "user error".

forcing north up on (ovi) map app

I assume I am not the only one somewhat frustrated with the "new" "ovi map" map application on the N900. I assume (and hope) it will at some point be upgraded/replaced with something that can do voice instructions (in line with the Nokia announcements for the Symbian phones), but for now, does anyo

Re: N810 gps troubles

Had a rather depressing confirmation of the GPS troubles this weekend. Went on a quick trip to London, and turned on the map application as soon as I got on the Heathrow Express heading into town. During the trip, the map application showed the GPS finding 3-5 satellites on the average, but it neve
