Rare lang makabili ng back cover ng N900 dito sa pinas, pwede ka makabili kung sakali may magbenta ng unit for spares only. Noon may nagbenta sa kilalang Online Trading Portal, N900 for 1.5K then natawaran ko ng 1k unit only (for spares) but complete.

But then, try mo parin sa mga Nokia Care Center, malay mo may stock pa pala sila

Ang alam ko on-going parin hanggang ngayon ang pag develop ng NITdroid for N900. Meaning, not fully 100% working.

I found this Thread at Maemo Community seems to be useful.

From Firmware, Hardware, and Software Mods up to purging some unnecessary software.

Just a simple guide that might be useful to us N900 users.

Hi Friends,

I have seen quite some threads here about the Nokia N900 but I'm not sure if they are still being maintained. I plan to share what I know about this cool device. I'm a new owner of the Nokia N900 but I've been reading up about it for quite some time, since it uses a Linux-based OS (Maemo 5) and I've been hooked into Linux-based Operating Systems as well (visit our thread in my signature for the Linux thread - Ubuntu).

I'll post some tutorials here with step-by-step procedures and, as much as possible, include some screenshots as well. Then I'll link whatever knowledge-sharing, tips and tricks, or tutorials that you may share here at the first Page so that it will be easier for visitors to find what they need. I'll update this thread as much as I can.

Ah. UNABLE, hindi "ABLE".

Sir, kaya ganun kasi napansin ko sa screenshot ninyo ay may widget kayo na music player at "active" po siya. Ibig sabihin, "in use" po ang Mass Storage ng N900 ninyo. Yung Music Player widget, naka-lock sa kanya ang Mass Storage. Kita po sa screenshot na may music file na naka-pause. Kaya pag sinasaksak yung N900 sa computer, sinasabi tuloy niya na "in use" siya (may gumagamit po ng Mass storage ninyo...which is yung Music Player na widget).

I-off or tanggalin muna ninyo ang Music Player widget.

una po sa lahat, dati po nag try ako mag install nitroid so naguguluhan ako di kuna tinuloy, tapos after nun yung widget di kuna ma open, di ko ma option nag install kasi ako nitroid kahit di bago reflash c.p ko, ayun binalewala ko nalang kasi yung ginagawa ko yung reflashing na 2times ko na naging successful na e flash, ngayon di kuna magawa,

ayun, ilan beses kuna inoff ang phone ko '' in use '' padin po ang mass storage ko


sir topet help me po asap
