Community SSU 21.2011.38-1Smaemo1 - Stable Version Released

The stable cssu is meant for all those people who didn't want to install the cssu because it happened to break stuff from time to time.

We're trying to achieve an as close to stock maemo experience as possible in terms of stability.

If you've got cssu-testing installed a reflash is needed prior to installing CSSU-stable. It is recommended to have PR 1.3 (20.2010.36) or PR 1.3.1 (21.2011.38) to install CSSU stable.

The stable cssu contains those packages from testing version 16.8 which were deemed stable. Basically nearly everything but modest/tinymail and the camera-ui replacement.

The exact packages + minor changes to those packages can be found on the changelog page for the stable cssu http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU/ChangelogStable

Since there are most packages from 16.8 it supports most features 16.8 has, nevertheless there is a dedicated page with all supported features listed: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU/FeaturesStable

Note: 21.2011.38-1 is the latest official Nokia version. The "S" of "Smaemo1" stands for stable and next of it indicates the Community SSU release version. This string is not edited so the Ovi store doesn't break.

New CSSU update for Maemo 5 version 21.2011.38-1Tmaemo1 is out

New Maemo 5 system update version 21.2011.38-1Tmaemo1 is out and you should see it in the Application Manager (if not, try refreshing it). 





Changelog:

* Added Qt DigiNotar blacklists.
* Fixed modest crashes.
* Fixed camera-ui corrupting videos after switching to background while recording.
* Fixed camera-ui overwriting user data.
* Fixed portrait wallpapers in hildon-home.
* CSSU rebased on top of official PR1.3.1 release.

Please note that this is a testing release - that's what the T symbol in the version string stands for. Stable release should follow soon. Keep in mind that changing between stable and testing releases requires a reflash, so if you prefer to eventually have the stable release on your device without having to reflash it, skip this one and wait for the version marked with S in the release string.

What's New in Firefox for Mobile

The latest version of Firefox for mobile has the following changes:

• Copy & Paste - Text selection in web content: Long tap in a web page and start selecting text using the familiar Android-style drag handles. This was a top request by Firefox users
• Added a ‘Quit’ action to the Android menu: exit the browser with one tap. When you restart Firefox, you can quickly continue where you left off by restoring all or individual tabs from your previous session. This was another very frequent feature request from mobile Firefox users
• Use Firefox in your language: When Firefox starts for the first time, it detects the language setting of your Android device and automatically switches to that language, if Firefox supports it. You can switch Firefox to a different language with a single tap
• Improved image rendering on Tegra-based tablets and phones (see bug 669851)
• The WebSocket API is now available in Firefox for Android (see bug 537787)
• Firefox for Android is built on the same rendering engine as Firefox for desktop computers.
