Maemo 5/PR1.2

PR 1.1.1 was the preparatory release for PR1.2, which should be released in a few weeks.

See Cannot install firmware update for additional information.

Not enough space?

There are reports that at least 42MB of free rootfs is needed for the update. You have probably installed unstable software from Extras-devel or other source with weak quality control. The simple solution is to uninstall anything not coming from Ovi and maemo.org Extras. You can Backup the "Application list" before and restore it after the update. ioquake3 must be uninstalled prior to updating, no matter your free space.

Here are some tips on how to free up space in rootfs: Free up rootfs space

Not possible over the air?

If the Application Manager asks you to connect the device to your PC it's probably because:

  • You have missed PR1.1.1.
  • You have been tweaking with unstable or conflicting software (for example ioquake3, battery-eye,..).

The easiest solution is to backup and flash your device (instructions). Power users might be interested in troubleshooting the Linux way (more instructions).

Hopefully here will appear official changelog etc same way Maemo 5/PR1.1 had.
