> In reply to Claire @ 2012-05-21 12:47 from Kg$S - click to readSkype is already installed on the n900. well, if you have the latest firmware update:
Skype is part of the Maemo operating system. You don't have to install a separate Skype app on that phone. You will need to put your Skype account as an account for "Internet Calls" through the Settings, as described on pages 56 and 57 in the N900 manual PDF:



http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/f...00_UG_en.pdf



Once you do that, and when you're online (WiFi or 3G/3.5G data from your mobile phone carrier), you get new options. When calling someone from your Contacts, you will see options to place the call either over the mobile phone network or Skype. When using the dialer to manually enter the call, there is a button above the dialer where you can select how to place the call (mobile phone network, or Skype).



When using Skype, you will have to put the numbers in using the + followed by the country code, area/city code, etc. - even if you are calling a number that is local to you. If you do this for the numbers stored in your Contacts, then you don't have to worry about that no matter how you place calls. Mobile phone networks should know how to handle dialing a local number even if you are using the international format including the + and country code, and Skype obviously can handle that.



Hope that helps....

Though I dont know about Preenv,
but I'm sure WebOS manager works fine.

What you can do is clean WebOs Manager by uninstalling. Delete all the games directory in there and then again make a fres install of it and load ipk files. I'm sure it will work. Its just some path settings that got disturbed, AFAIK.

Cheers

Be aware that after little over 1 year the phone will have a communication error and cannot call / be called, etc. Our repair guy now has 5 of these phones in the shop with the same problem. And it is not easy to solve. So I would not recommend this phone anymore. And it is heavy...
