Re: Nokia N900 Warranty Coverage—USB Port

Had this exact same problem. They sent me (or are sending me) a mailing label to send it to Noka for a fix. We'll see, I guess.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

OK, I've done some monkeying around and it seems to have been useful. You might check out this thread for a step-by-step.

I'd like to be able to sync with the repositories. (See other threads.) :(

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Will activate Red Pill and go into rootsh then. Probably in an hour or so, so stay tuned.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Reflashing -- the same as restoring factory settings, isn't it? -- should be fine with my device anyway, since I haven't really used it enough to lose much in terms of settings or data.

It's also...

I don't have it installed. The bolded bit is what they had in mind, I think.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

No copy/paste commands in X Terminal. Just "New" and "Font".

Got the same "permission denied" messages as before, btw.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

It said "Enable RD mode if you want to break your device." :D

Shall I go on with the other two commands?

Haven't tried Red Pill yet. Holding out hope I can find the magic setting that makes it work. ;)

Will let you know what I find.

After the first command, I got a bunch of lines saying "rm: cannot remove, etc, etc" and "Permission denied."

I can't figure out how to copy/paste from the terminal, and it's too lengthy to type...

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Have not removed any files. Have considered flashing the device to restore factory settings, just in case that would help. After all, that's not likely to do any harm.

Code:

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Right, well, Red Pill in this case is a sort of last resort, as my Application Manager does not work and nobody has given me any idea of what (if anything) can be done to fix the problem.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

OK. After a lengthy dialog with someone there that seems to know what he's doing, he's offered a suggestion to possibly help the problem.


Enable Red Pill Mode. (That's the first step.)

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Seems as if I saw a thread somewhere offering a step-by-step on how to flash it. If I can find it again, I'll post the link here.

I've sent out an SOS on the Nokia Discussions board as well. Will...

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Anyone think that this problem could be fixed simply enough by restoring factory settings? Not sure what else can be done, tbh.

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

Quite right.

I'm in the US, the addresses seem to be what they're meant to be. I'll keep trying with regular cell access and wifi today and see what i get.

Hopefully, Nokia will get back to me...

Thanks for the help.

The troubling thing is that it doesn't work in either wifi or cellular mode. It's also worrying that this isn't an issue about refreshing the Extras repository, but just the...

Re: Finally got the repositories set up.

That's sort of my issue as well. Also, I tried going without WiFi (my home doesn't have it, and I popped in a sim card) and it seemed to make no difference.
