Nokia 770 - Missing Home City

I received my Nokia 770 IT yesterday. While I was trying to setup the device, I noticed that my city (Toronto, Canada) is not listed in Home City selection list.
My Nokia 6680 phone doesn't have this problem, so, I'm wondering did Nokia leave some cities out or it's my problem?
Also, is there a way to add a city?
Thanks for your help guys.

No such adapters exist. The 770 can be connected via Wi-Fi/WLAN or a mobile phone with Bluetooth or infrared support.

Best Regards Dean

oh dear god! a 770! That's like handing someone a "black and white" phone!!
But seriously, I like / miss the 770.. a hard case / screen protector built in
You're kind of limited in what you can do with the 770, I'm afraid.. The main reason is the age of the CPU and the limited flash memory..
First thing I'd do is reflash the thing.. wipe it clean..
If you head on over to http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/ you have three options:
OS2006: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_770.php
This is the last great OS version for the 770, it is Maemo 2 (compared to Maemo 5 on the N900)
OS2007 Hacker edition: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/os2007_hacker_edition.php
This is a cut down version of OS2007 aka Maemo 3 that was released first for the N800.. The reason this is a "hacker edition" is because many of the apps are removed to allow the image to sit on the very small flash memory.. It's not as good as OS2007 is on the N800
Last is:
OS2008 Hacker edition: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/os2008_hacker_edition.php
This is the hacker version of OS2008 aka Maemo 4.. Maemo4 is the OS that ran on the N800 and later the N810 phone. Just as with the OS2007 hacker edition, its really cut down.. It's not really suitable for day to day use..
Now, the main thing to note is that you can reflash your device as many times you'd like.. This means you can try all three OS versions.
To flash your device, you need a copy of flasher-3.5
The process is very similar to the N900
flasher-3.5 -F image.bin -f -R
replace image.bin with the name of one of the OS images you downloaded from the links above
After you've run that command, turn your 770 off
Press and hold down the "home" button and plug it into the computer.. it should wake up and start flashing.
This is a bit of a summary.. but let me know if you want more in depth details and I'll see what I can do.
The 770 is was great device, but it is really very dated compared to the N800, N810 and now the N900..

Nokia 770: Can't Surf The Net In Hotels

When trying to connect my Nokia 770 Internet Tablet while in hotels, I find that my success is hit and miss. But I can use a laptop and connect. The difference is the browser on the laptop defaults to a web page from the ISP where I have to agree to some terms before being allowed to surf the net. How do I get to this default page with the Nokia 770?Message Edited by cxbank on 26-Jan-2007

Well, both really. Sometimes I can open the browser and surf for a while fine, then it hangs. Other times it hangs as soon as I open the browser. I've also noticed that the iTunes visualizer hangs unless it is in full screen mode. It never used to do that. In fact, I used to have trouble getting a full screen visualizer, now it's all I can do. Windows is updated. I suppose I could try sound and video card updates.

Nokia 770 Very Disapointed

I got my nokia 770 two days ago and so far finding is very disapointing.
Some websites I cant log into using itexample this website. I cant set the email on there to aol even tho I can log onto aol mail read my mail that way I am trying to install gaim but when I log in I get missing protocol plugin for [email protected]
If anyone can help me with these problem it would be very nice many thanks

The 770 does not support Java applets (J2SE, Java 2 Standard Edition) as embedded on web pages.
I don't know what the Flash support in the 770 is, but in the newer N800 it works OK.
Hotmail does not support Internet standard messaging protocols (SMTP for sending, and IMAP4 or POP3 for receiving), so you need to access it via the browser. If you have difficulties with the regular pages (e.g., they expect Internet Explorer, ActiveX support or some such), try going through http://mobile.msn.com instead.

Nokia 770 audio player

I am a proud user of Nokia 770. As I use Ubuntu Linux at home. I would verymuch like to have native support for ogg vorbis audio format.

I'll second this. I know about the Ogg player for the 770, but would rather just have the existing player add the codec rather than add an entire other program!
On a side note, does anyone know if Nokia has made the source code for the audio and video players available?

Nokia 770 and Adobe Flash Player

I have been to a number of sites, like youtube.com, where I am directed to get an updated flash player, and then i am routed to the Adobe Flash Player for Linux download page. Unfortunately, the download button is not shown on the 770, while it is shown when I use my computer. Even if I could download it, the instructions pertain to a computer with a Modzilla browser.
Does the 770 have a flash player, and can it be updated?

Question: When is an 'Internet' Tablet not an 'Internet' Tablet?
Answer : When like the nokia 770 it comes with an outdated flash player that can't be updated!
To own one of these 770s with a completely out of date (cira 1998 for flash 6?) flash player is like owning a car (recently purchased) that will not drive on newly built roads!
I got my mind around the 770 not having a decent Calendar a some time ago (eventhough you get a Calendar on the most basic Nokia phone!). The Geeks of Nokia tell us "This is not a PDA & that why it doesn't have a Calendar". Ok so it is not a PDA but if it is an 'Internet' Tablet, why is the flash player so out of date?? Why don't Nokia release an updated version for it?? This device was on sale in the UK upto about 2 weeks ago through Nokia's own web shop for £243 !!
If Nokia think all 770 users should buy an N800 just to get upto date internet capability, here is my answer: IN NO WAY 'JOSE'!! I am looking at alternative options.

IChat Nokia 770

hi
I have problems connecting via GOOGLE TALK from my NOKIA 770 tablet to the GMAIL account in JABBER inside iChat.
I can connect in chat no problem but not in AUDIO CHAT = it always gives a "no answer" error.
Any help please?
thank you
enrico

The Google Talk service is standard XMPP, which iChat can also understand. So in that respect iChat is compatible with Gtalk.
But the audio part of Gtalk is new, and only recently started becoming standardised as a JEP.
iChat doesn't use this new standard. Because there was no standard for audio or video over XMPP when iChat 3 came out Apple implemented their own custom way of doing it.
If you want to be able to voice chat between the Gtalk client and iChat you will need to submit feedback to Apple requesting they update iChat to use the new standards. Until that happens text chat is all you're going to get between iChat and Gtalk.
If you just want to be able to IM and voice chat between your 770 and other people you could try Gizmo (http://www.gizmoproject.com). They have clients for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux, and they have been working on one for the Nokia 770 recently (Nokia 770 is Linux-based anyway i believe). You'll be able to send text chats from Gizmo to people on Gtalk too as they also use XMPP for IM.

Nokia 770 competition

I have been trying to get a Nokia 770 for a while now, but I cant find any stores that have them in stock.
I have emailed expansys and they have some, but I hate that company about the same level I hate captals in posts...
I know that Nokia sells them directly, but I am not sure if I want to get involved like that, heaven knows who Nokia uses for running that outfit.
So, does anyone in Nokia want to start up a competion where the prize is a brand spanking new Nokia 770? It would be great.
We could have a caption competition or a humorous vegetable competion etc. Anyhting really, as long as it is not based on ranking, number of posts..

I am not sure how we would run a humouros vegetable competition...

Impossible download application nokia 770

I've just bought a nokia 770 but I can't download new packages with the application manager.
After selecting a package (hello-world-app for example), the downloding window is opened with the following message : "Downloading 17 kB" and after 3 or 4 minutes the error message is
fired : Downloading error.
Note : My internet connection is up: I can browse on any web site.
could you please give me some hints to solve the problem.
thank you

I've already had a look to the maemo list without success.
It's weird, at first I used the french version and I was not able refresh my package list.
After switching to english version I was able to refresh the package list but the list was empty.
so I added the maemo repository in order to have some applications in the list.
is it ok to have an empty list with the default nokia catalog ?
is it possible to track the errors in a log file somewhere (I don't have any xterm for now because I can't load any package).

Nokia 770 and password to financial institution

Hello,
I have a Nokia 770. Each time I want to log on to my bank to view my checking account or to my credit card company to check my balance my Opera Browser closes down on me. This only happens when I copy my user name and/or password from a password manager (Password Safe) but also when I do the same from the built in Notes into the provided boxes on the login pages. When I type in the same information directly via the software keyboard I can access my accounts just fine. To manually do this is of cause a big hassle that I would like to avoid and to let the 770 remember the passwords seems to me to be not very safe. I would really appreciate it if somebody has a solution to this problem.
Thanks

Nokia 770 application manager crashing.

Hey Guys,
I've had my nokia 770 for about 3 months now and not long after getting it and installing a few third party apps, such as meamo mapper.etc, the application manager now crashes whenever you try to install anything. It does not let you access the the Application catalogue. When you try to access it, it merely says "operation failed" this happens when you try to do almost anything related to the application manager, so insallling new apps no longer works. I have tried doing a system restore, to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas. any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Cheers,
Alan,

I am afraid that the only way I could cure this issue on mine was to reinstall the firmware as if I was upgarding. This will mean that you should backup the personal data you have on the device first. But, be warned, in my case it was the personal data that was causing the issue, as soon as I reloaded my data the fault returned. Reinstalling the latest firmware again resolved the issue and I just entered all my personal stuff manually! A real pain, but it worked, best of luck.

Nokia 770 flash update?

Hi,
I've just bought a nokia 770 internet tablet running os2006 operating system with adobe flash 7.
I've noticed that websites such as facebook and other flash heavy websites insist on having flash 9 installed. Is there any workarounds for me to get it installed?
Also is there any way of installing a version of msn I know of some software called gaim/ pidgin but I'm not sure how to install it can I download it straight to the tablet without using a pc?
Regards
Phil

You have to wait until Adobe releases Flash 9 for the device (might never happen).
For (all the available?) software compatible with the 770, you can go here:
