For God's sake Nokia...PLEASE release the N950!!

This sexy piece of hardware is the right one to replace the Maemo 5 giant, our beloved N900.
I know it, 
I know you guys know it as well.
I'm looking at it and say "holy **bleep**, this device is thinking!"
N900/N950 enthusiasts, back me up here!

I now work with someone who worked with/under the guy who killed touch screen symbian 5 years ago.. He said no one needed a touch screen device, it was all about phones with buttons..
he then left and worked for palm (a company focused on touch screen technology almost completely) and killed that too with other stupid ideas..
I can't repeat the words I used to describe that man..
Think where we'd be if Nokia had progressed Series90. It is all about touch screens now..
idiot..
I wonder if they might re-release the N950 next year after the launch of the N9.. Though I also understand the N9 might not be launched in the USA or UK..
I love the fact dippy in charge "leaked" the WP7 recently..
Announce WP7 phone this year... world says "meh"
Announce the N9.. world says "what the hell, that looks awesome"
quick better "leak" a WP7
Apparently it's very similar in hardware / design to the N9.. makes you wonder how similar they'll actually be.. maybe it's just an os difference! Interesting thought though.. if the WP7 hardware could be MeeGo compatible..
That would be fairly revolutionary.. one phone hardware, pick an OS!! But it doesn't work well with the deal Nokia made with MS..
Either way, the N950 kind of represents the potential end of the Maemo hacker platform.. The N9, whilst truely awesome, is a finished product.. the N950 with its rough edges appeals to many.. If they made 100,000 units, they'd sell them in a month for sure.. even if they came without warranty / support... the N900 community is used to that!!!

  • Nokia please release the firmware for 5320 xm 5.16...

    its has been ages since since my nokia 5320 xm got the update
    last update was 4.13
    nokia please hear my request

    Updates are influenced by regional and network factors. Are you aware if other 5320s in your country have a newer update? Is your phone an 'Operator variant' which would mean that Nokia needs approval of your network to release updates?

    Try to restart or - if necessary - to restore the iPhone:

    Disable your Firewall and Antivirus software - it may be blocking the access to the server. Wait a day, maybe the server is down.

    Nope, nothing I can do.
    I do not plan to ever release an update either because like everyone else here I am just a user like you.
    Apple is not here, does not read these forums or respond to anything posted here.

  • WebDB 2.2/RedHat 6.1. For God's sake why doesn't Oracle release some documentation??

    Someone please tell me how to get past the
    "Enter your Oracle database SYS user password and a TNS names alias" page. My password doesn't show up as ****'s or spaces. Do I have termcap problem here? I've tried different term types and none of the obvious ones help.
    I enter change_on_install for the password and "oracle" (my SID) for the TNSNAMES alias. But I always get a "You entered an incorrect system password or an incorrect TNS names alias" error message. Which is it? Why doesn't it just say "Oracle doesn't work". Or "What you entered doesn't compute". Or "You f%$^ing dumb ass, don't you f$%^ing know anything about Oracle, you should have entered something else". These messages are equally as useful as the current response. Do I need to create a new TNS names alias? If so why? And where is the documentation on this?
    I'm guessing that because Oracle released Webdb on Linux it does actually work and that someone, somewhere got it to work. Otherwise Oracle is no better than Microsucks in their support effort ("Well it works on my system, you must be doing something wrong").
    Thanks for any help. I'd really like to use WebDB but if I have to spend any more than 2 days just to get it installed I might as well revert to Winblows NT and self installing, self configuring ZIP files or jump of the Brooklyn bridge and I'd rather do the later.
    Bren.

    I am a Product Manager for WebDB and I am concerned that you are having such a problematic experience.
    Below I have pasted an installation note that is available on MetaLink, this should walk you through the process.
    The reason your TNS connection is failing is because WebDB does not know where to connect to. WebDB uses 8.0.5 binaries and therefore cannot use the tnsnames.ora file in the 8i Oracle home. To get it to work you need to do one of two things, either copy the tnsnames.ora file from your 8i home to the new WebDB home you're about to create. Or create yourself an environment variable called TNS_ADMIN that points to [8i home/network/admin]
    Don't worry about not seeing asterisks as we don't display any, this is a 'feature' of the character based installer that we use.
    With WebDB 3.0 we will not have this problem as we are using 8i binaries and libraries and we will install using the Oracle Universal Installer, not a character mode one.
    Hope this helps.
    PURPOSE
    This document provides detailed installation notes for WebDB 2.2.0.0.4. It is
    focused on installing WebDB for an 8.1.5 (8i) database. Since WebDB is based
    off of the 8.0.5 binary and library files, it must be installed in a separate
    ORACLE_HOME than 8.1.5.
    SCOPE & APPLICATION
    This document is intended to guide you through every step of the WebDB
    installation process against 8i to prevent the most common issues.
    BEFORE YOU BEGIN
    Create a new directory for the new WebDB ORACLE_HOME separate from the 8.1.5
    database ORACLE_HOME.
    i.e. /u01/app/oracle/product/webdb/
    You must ensure that all of the appropriate environment variables are set before
    beginning the installation process. Unset any existing ORACLE environment
    settings and only set the following:
    ORACLE_HOME-->point this to the WebDB home
    i.e. setenv ORACLE_HOME /u01/app/oracle/product/webdb/
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH-->point this to the $ORACLE_HOME/lib where $ORACLE_HOME is the
    WebDB home
    i.e. setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ORACLE_HOME/lib/
    SHLIB_PATH-->point this to the $ORACLE_HOME/lib as well where $ORACLE_HOME is the
    WebDB home
    i.e. setenv SHLIB_PATH $ORACLE_HOME/lib/
    LIBPATH (for AIX ONLY)-->point this to the $ORACLE_HOME/lib as well where $ORACLE_HOME is the
    WebDB home
    i.e. setenv LIBPATH $ORACLE_HOME/lib/
    PATH-->append the following $ORACLE_HOME/bin/ where $ORACLE_HOME is the
    WebDB home
    i.e. setenv PATH $ORACLE_HOME/bin/:$PATH
    TNS_ADMIN-->point this to the database home/network/admin directory.
    i.e. setenv TNS_ADMIN /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/network/admin
    WV_GATEWAY_CFG-->point this to the $ORACLE_HOME/listener/cfg/wdbsvr.app where
    $ORACLE_HOME is the WebDB home
    i.e. setenv WV_GATEWAY_CFG $ORACLE_HOME/listener/cfg/wdbsvr.app
    BEGIN THE INSTALLATION
    From the unix prompt, cd to the staging area for your WebDB Media and go to the
    orainst director.
    i.e. cd /SD_CDROM/orainst/
    Run the orainst for the Oracle Installer to begin.
    i.e. ./orainst
    1.)'Oracle WebDB 2.1 Installation Requirements' Select OK.
    2.)'Environment Variable'
    ORACLE_BASE - this should be set already
    i.e. /u01/app/oracle/
    ORACLE_HOME - this should be set to the WeBDB home already
    i.e. /u01/app/oracle/product/webdb/
    Select OK.
    3.)'Relink All Executables?' Select NO.
    4.)'Software Asset Manager' - select Oracle WebDB 2.2.0.0.4 and Oracle WebDB
    Listener 2.2.0.0.4. Select INSTALL.
    5.)'WebDB Listener'
    Hostname --> provide the fully qualified host.domain as registered with DNS
    i.e. iprodhp2.us.oracle.com
    Data Access --> You can name your database access descriptor anything you
    would like but it is best if you take the default which is 'WebDB'
    WebDB Schema --> This is the schema that all WebDB packages will be installed
    under. It is recommended that you again take the default which is 'WEBDB'
    Listener Port -- > Ensure that you choose a port that is not already in use.
    Port 80 is the default http port. This port number can always be changed
    later when you start the WebDB listener.
    Select OK.
    6.)'Choose the Database' - Select Oracle 8i and Select OK.
    7.)Please provide the appropriate sys password and the TNSNAMES alias used to
    connect to the 8.1.5 database.
    8.)'WEBDB' --> Select the tablespaces you would like to install into.
    Installation = WEBDB
    Default = <USERS>
    Temporary = <TEMP>
    Document = <USERS>
    Select OK.
    9.)WebDB initial password is webdb --> Select OK.
    10.)'Choose Language' --> English is automatically installed but you may choose
    any additional languages. Select OK.
    11.)Installation of the WebDB schema may take a while. You may think your
    installer is hanging but in fact it is just installing a lot of information.
    Depending on your machine's resources, the average time to complete this
    task is usually around 45 minutes to 1 hour.
    12.)'WebDB Install Complete' --> Select OK.
    13.)It will then install support files.
    14.)'WebDB Listener Successfull' Select OK.
    15.)Exit Software Asset Manager
    Go to the unix prompt to start the listener:
    wdbstart host.domain port&WHERE host.domain is the fully qualified host and domain name with DNS
    AND port is the http port you would like the listener to start on
    i.e. wdbstart iprodhp2.us.oracle.com 22004&
    CONFIGURING THE LISTENER
    Go the following URL: http://host.domain:port/admin_/gateway.htm
    WHERE host.domain is the fully qualified host and domain name with DNS
    AND port is the http port you started the listener on
    i.e. http://iprodhp2.us.oracle.com:22004/admin_/gateway.htm
    Verify that your connect string is correct on the gateway.htm page. This should
    be the alias registered in your TNSNAMES.ORA file. Then click Apply. It is
    not neccessary to restart the listener after you make the change.
    ACCESSING THE WEBDB HOME PAGE
    Go to the following URL: http://host.domain:port/
    HERE host.domain is the fully qualified host and domain name with DNS
    AND port is the http port you started the listener on
    i.e. http://iprodhp2.us.oracle.com:22004/

  • Please Release the v2.12 BIOS for the G570

    I don't know why lenovo still have the 2.09 bios up. My laptop came with 2.12!!! Am I wrong to think that the 2.12 is newer than 2.09 ??? Thats 3 update Lenovo haven't release if it's going up by .01. Anybody on the inside know whats going on?? Is lenovo no longer supporting the G570.
    Here my screen shot  
    http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp108/aznbadboi​xxx/551f39fb.jpg

    aznbadboixx,
    The support web releases the official web version of bios, whereas the new v2.02 you had was not a web release version. It was loaded into your machine during production after some updates being made to v2.09.
    If there is no critical issues fixed in v2.02 (which is not yet web release version), the website will still use the previous official one.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to app run for foreign vendors and customers please tell the steps

    hai every body this is raj
    i am asking how to create the foreign vendors and how to apprun for foriegn vendors please tell the steps
    and another questions is how to run app for customers t

    Lets say your company code is in country IN.  Every vendor you create (using XK01, lets say) with a country other than IN is a foreign vendor for your company code.  To enable APP for foreign vendors, make sure you check the checkbox 'Foreign Business Partner Allowed' in 'Payment method in company code' in T Code FBZP.  If the vendor invoice is in a foreign currency, make sure you include that currency as permitted currency for that payment method.
    To run APP for customers, your 'Payment method in country' in FBZP must be for incoming payment.

  • Please, please, please release the iPhone to Sprint.  Will it ever be?

    Will Apple ever release the iphone to Sprint.  We deserve the opportunity to have the best on the market.

    There is no way to know such a thing unless Apple announces.
    There is no reason to believe that Sprint will ever get the iphone.

  • For God's Sake, How Do I Reduce The Endless Lag???

    I'm aware that the Classic uses disk medium and not, yknow, flash storage. Prior to my 120GB Classic, I used a 40GB 3rd Gen from 2003 'til now.
    For a long time I suffered with a Powerbook with a smaller hard drive than my 120GB iPod, so I was forced to keep all my music on the iPod. I accepted the lag then.
    But now I have a Mac capable of anything, and am ready to start removing music off my iPod. But in my googling, it seems like a lot of people say that removing things off your iPod and cutting down on space usage hasn't helped the lag for them at all.
    It has 103GB full, music only, no video, and unless I fix the lag, it will probably be the death of me, because trying to change songs in a car is an aggravating and near-suicidal endeavor, because of how rarely the scrollwheel deems to respond, or clicking too many menus ahead because I've waited a while and come to the assumption that my previous click didn't register.
    I'm willing to cut back large amounts of gigs, I just want to know if it will noticeably help.

    Ignore the self-righteous replies ... now how about some help?
    Is your Classic's firmware up to date? There have been some improvements to responsiveness compared to initial releases.
    Is your Classic's click wheel covered by a skin? I had to surgically remove the thin silicone skin over the wheel and got much better response.
    Do you use a lot of smart playlists, especially ones that depend on the contents of other playlists? That can bog things down, especially if you have a lot (say, 75 or more). I did get some improvement with the last firmware release, but the key seems to be to limit your use of multi-cascaded playlists.

  • For god's sake when is the ipad going to be compatible with adobe fash!?

    I am simply repeating my question. Can it ever be answered? Will the great mystery of the world be solved? 

    Probably never as Apple don't want it (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/) and Adobe have never been able to make a version of flash player that works on iOS (even when Apple helped them for a couple of years or so).
    If you want to access flash-based content then browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store and there is the built-in YouTube app.

  • Nokia should release the L720 with 1GB RAM

    Hello all,
    I am a huge fan of Nokia from India and I have not posted much in the forum before. I had to post this because I felt this is really important.
    None of the new games that are released would work on the L720 because of the really less RAM. My big concern is that even Temple Run won't work. Dumb phones like Galaxy Ace runs it and I don't want Nokia to loose this battle again. I think it would be a smarter move to use high RAM for the L7xx,8xx and 9xx series. Leave the 512 to the lower range.
    I hope somebody picks this up and takes it to Nokia's higher level management.
    No "Temple run" is like a no sale in India. Wake up Nokia. Don't let the L720 die the painful death that my L710 had to endure.
    Regards
    Sangiah

    If Temple run does work on 512 MB lower spec android devices maybe you should direct your attention to the dvelopers who should (and IMO will) provide optimisations and updates to include support for 512 MB devices,
    The 710 is a lower spec/end device with a pricepoint to match. IF 1GB RAM is so crucil at this point you have the 820 to choose from.
