It sounds like a network issue. I would try pinging google.com. If this failes then ensure the nameserver is correct *echo nameserver* xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /etc/resolv.conf xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of your router. Peace On Thu, Jul 9, 2009 at 4:22 AM, Patryk Benderz

Yeah, I have 2008.8. I was using the openDNS nameservers last night and thought I pinged google just fine. It was late and can't remember now. I am trying to connect to the FR on my work computer now and it's not going so well. I can't open the settings app like I mentioned in my initial post,

I recommend using SHR's unstable image, the July 3rd image, as an everyday phone. They just came out with a new build today which I have not yet tested. om2009, though pretty reliable, is lacking in terms of other software you can install to make a nice smart phone. On my phone I have GPS

There a lot of nice features that I hope will be introduced to SHR, e.g. contact names in text messages, etc. However, I am very happy that SHR is stable and usable. Does anyone know what it'll take to be able to send receive attachments? On Thu, Jul 9, 2009 at 11:07 AM, Petr Vanek
