Deactivate buggy portrait mode on N900
Hello, since last week, I can use my N900 in portrait mode after using the phone app in portrait mode and hanging up. However, it is not working properly -- some icons and widgets are located off the screen and cannot be accessed. I appreciate that feature but would like to wait until it is actually more usable. The thing is that i cannot reproducably switch back to landscape mode: Sometimes the phone switches back after locking and unlocking it; sometimes some application cause it to switch back. I want to disable the portrait mode feature generally until it is ready for use. Can anybody tell me how i do this? Johas PS. I read somewhere that you can activate portrait mode with the newest firmware by pressing ctrl+shift+o in the browser app. However, I don't remember doing this and it doesn't help turning the feature off again. ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Re: Recording calls
Just one thought on this: Most people are going to do playback on the device. I would focus on the best codec available for recording and playback on the N900. If people want to use it some other place, maybe making an export function (for Wav or MP3 or whatever) would suffice. Worst case, make a selectable setting for which codec to use and let the user decide? One idea: Most phone conversations are mono. Maybe a good strategy would be to record in stereo, with inbound on one channel and out-bound on the other? It would make listening to it later interesting, since you could balance out one side or the other to catch pieces obscured by overlap? Would also help clarify who said what on a 2-party call at least. What's the app/widget garage name? Would love to load it up and take it for a test drive.
