Just wondering, at night do you turn your n900 off or just turn it to offline or just leave it on as normal?
I usually set mine to offline, but last night i just turned it off. This morning i re-started phone and it made it to the desktop, with the clock and battery and 2g signal showing then it rebooted which it did for a further 3 times before i intervened.

I don't know if this had anything to do with installing a microsd yesterday, but i'm glad i did as i'd backed up with RobbieThe1st BackupMenu V2 - OS backup & restore and was able to restore with this and now seems to be ok, until tonight if i turn off again??

I had also updated theme customizer, calendar home widget and one of the icon packs yesterday.

i have since restarted no problems a couple of times today

I leave it running all day and night (at night its plugged in and charging). Only occasionally restart it when I install something/mod something or randomly cause I feel like it

i'd just got a new replacement battery for it (Japod) and was trying to 'condition' it' tbh though i don't know wether you still need to do that with the newer batteries, that's the reason why i'd turned it off.

I just leave mine as normal since my sleep patterns are unpredictible. When my tablet gets low on battery I just put in a fully charged one.

Robbie's Backupmenu is probably the best improvement to the N900, right up there with 9 screens and Desktop-switcher.

It's brilliant and so simple to use and it saves a shed load of time and patience

I've never bothered much with conditioning, and I have Japod as well as Mugen batteries. All I do is for the first week or so when I'm using them I use them from full charge to empty without recharging midway. That makes sense to me and seems to work ok.
