This affords me a brilliant opportunity to clean up lots of space, and confusion as well. Apr 07 13:56:25 Reducing screen time may help your sleep? Apr 07 15:38:15 "All telephony functions, including emergency calls, are disabled due to a comunication error. To recover, you might have to reboot the device" :( Apr 07 15:51:21 Power down make sure the SIM is seated correctly and check battery isn't bloated. Apr 07 15:52:51 I have powered down one. Now I have put a small rubber between battery and sim cover. And I got it working again. Thanks swb Apr 07 17:03:49 pressing modem harder is just temporary solution Apr 07 17:03:58 you should start looking for another n900 Apr 07 17:04:09 or resoldering Apr 07 17:05:07 kotczarny: too bad for me. Do You have a video o resoldering? Apr 07 17:05:13 nope Apr 07 17:05:31 but if you arent familiar, then it's not for you, i guess Apr 07 17:05:53 kotczarny: mmm. You were right. I am watching my phone now. And the symbol of no sim has appeared again Apr 07 17:07:28 kotczarny: I should try. I do not think I have too many options at hand. Or perhaps using an older phone. droids does not fill the bucket for my taste Apr 07 17:09:32 try looking for a spare n900 Apr 07 17:09:41 they sometimes show up cheeaply Apr 07 17:12:29 kotczarny: for my side of the world.

I don't even know if it had been done successfully to an N900. Apr 07 19:03:31 lol that were unexpected news. So let's look for a replacement there.
