[maemo-users] Auto Shut Off of 810

[From: Dr. Nicholas Shaw]

Thank you, Jean-Christian.  I appreciate your detailed response!  

Once the N900 comes out (this month, hopefully), if the apps I use are
available (or a suitable replacement present) then this may be mute.  Until
then, I'll continue to troubleshoot this.  I now have different options.
Thanks!

Nick.

Nicholas,

Before buying a new battery, I also have reflashed the system, but this
had made no impact on my N810. Replaced the battery was the solution for
my particular case. But as a battery in expensive, I encourage you to
verify any other possible cause.

Now to be extremely precise, I noticed the problem the day after having
flashed the last OS into the N810 to try the Canola2 application that
did not install into the old OS. I first suspected that Canola2 eat too
much power but the day after the same problem occurred without using
Canola2. Then I flashed the old OS back and observed that my N810 still
reboot while recharging, and so more en more often. Now my N810 work fin
with a new battery and the last OS (but I did not install Canola2).

So I concluded that that flashing the new OS was not the cause of the
problem, but an hazard in the timeline of the events.
