Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 
Having WSOD'd my n810 yesterday I've just loaded up the flasher to reinstall the operating system and to my surprise an update was available. It is specifically called Diablo, is this a prerelease, did people know about this? If I'm just behind the times I apologise, but I thought you may like to know.

I think that the time of release has been more appropriate than friday afternoon, don't you?
At this time most of people are at the office or going to work (apart from the ones completing they final master paper at home :D and are easily distracted) so servers are no so full.

Enjoy Diablo! Tak så mycket Maemo Team!

Fridays are good too, there is whole weekend for playing with it (updating bootmenu, patching kernel and other stuff).

Re: Diablo Released?
 
Can I use the old flasher3.0 to flash diablo ? or do I need a new flasher ?

RichS 2008-06-24 10:49

Re: Diablo Released?
 
My flasher updated itself automatically when i went to reflash.

miind 2008-06-24 10:54

Re: Diablo Released?
 
it seems to ask you to download a new one.. at least on win32.

- now running Diable -

From your perspective, you are perfectly right! I suppose that every body in this community is waiting for your IT related work (it is just so useful, polished and well documented).

Thank you Fanoush!

Does anyone know if the beta repository is updated?

It also must mean Nokia is about to go on a vacation. :D

-Download was fast @ 06:30 ESDT

-The "substantial" upgrade to Wayfinder appears to be the addition of a green heart to the logo. The GUI seems the same.

-Restoring other apps now. Canola and Maemo Mapper went well...

Will see a lot of red signatures these days... ;-)

Oh, yes, time to update with my ftd and nitro intact.

lumindigo85 2008-06-24 11:36

Re: Diablo Released?
 
At least it is for sure now that the maps on Wayfinder are 2 years old since the dates are shown in the application.

Re: Diablo Released?
 
How funny. I spent a while yesterday digging through clues to find the username/password for the repository. Found it and started installing last night, but never finished because of some error with a modest-related file. All in vain...

EIPI 2008-06-24 11:41

Re: Diablo Released?
 
Wow... downloaded fast this morning @ 6:20 EST.... took only 6 minutes! Will have to flash tonite. Dare I wonder if the download/server issues we all faced with Chinook's release have been corrected? Thanks Nokia for this update to a wonderful device!!

Re: Diablo Released?
 
Sloooooow download presently. Must be at the end of a long queue :-(

Link to N800 download: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N800.php?


Link to N810 download: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N810.php?

Or just let the update wizard application get it for you.

Man, I've been waiting for this. Next big thing is how soon can I buy another pair of stylii w/ an N810 WiMax as a bundled accessory ?

Re: Diablo Released?
 
What was the username/password for the Diablo repository? Now you can tell.

Yay! Nokia has just released new firmware upgrades for the Nokia N810 and N800 Internet Tablets that adds a Seamless Software Upgrade Feature. Based on Maemo 4.1 (Diablo),Â* the new OS2008 feature upgrade lets you now perform future OS upgrades over-the-air (WLAN only). A new automatic notification from the home screen will now notify you of new versions of the OS and system apps, including third party applications. The new firmware also replaces the current email app with an open source one based on Modest and tinymail. Chinese fonts have also been added, reported openssl bugs have been fixed, and browsing panning experiencehas been improved. Links: Nokia N800 Firmware, Nokia N810 Firmware

restored - applications installed.
only problem so far is that personal menu + large status bar clock can't install (application manager gives an "applicatoin package not found" error).

Else - everything looks fine - and it's now possible to always launch finger keyboard on screen touch - hooray.

Re: Diablo Released?
 
I was unable to install FBReader until I set the distribution to chinook, instead of leaving it blank. I've added chinook to the extras catalogue too, and got a load more applications available :)

miind 2008-06-24 12:19

Re: Diablo Released?
 
pixelseventy2,same here. since diablo defaults to the diablo path on the repositorys you need to do that..

nikolajhendel 2008-06-24 12:25

Re: Diablo Released?
 
thanks pixelseventy2's
- that helped

alephito 2008-06-24 12:30

Re: Diablo Released?
 
Thanks pixelseventy2.

Now everything is reinstalling well.

Re: Diablo Released?
 
Have you noticed that the version of RTCOMM shipped with Diablo does not include MSN or purple lib support?
Have any of you got running the last beta version?

Bundyo 2008-06-24 12:37

Re: Diablo Released?
 
If someone wants to download only the armel debs from the repo and try a SSU, maybe this will help:
Code:

wget http://repository.maemo.org/pool/diablo/ -r -nd -np -A armel.deb,all.deb
Then again quite a number of packages are probably not there :)

Yes, it works fine. The installation method is the same as it was.
