Default Nokia N950

From the demo here, it looks like the screen with applications launchers doesn't rotate when the device is in the landscape mode. Is it intended?

The three home views are displayed in portrait only, as answered already at http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?...9&postcount=29

Let's keep using the N9 thread for OS related questions since that one has grown already with many questions and answers.

If you have questions specific to the N950 please post them here. Thank you for opening this thread!

Does the N950 use mini-SIM (those used in most handsets) or micro-SIM cards?
AFAIK the N9 uses micro-SIMs but there are also prototypes using mini-SIMs.

Why we saw a 12 mpix Carl Zeiss camera in the leaked N950 teaser?

Are you allowed to talk about why the N950 is used as community only device and not released for a wider audience? (They love it on engadget)
Are you allowed to talk about how many N950 were produced? Eldar Murtazin (*sigh*) said something about 92.000 devices, but I was told from Nokia Germany that this is a wrong number.

Thanks!

Firstly, I use horizontal swipe gestures in my applications all the time. Now I'm wondering, if it would clash with swipe handling of underlying N9 system..
Secondly, some of my applications are full-screen, but as I've noticed QWidget::showFullScreen() doesn't work on Harmattan (at least in QEMU-runtime). That's worrying me very much. And yes, there's no reaction to orientation changes - too bad, though it's maybe QEMU-related problem only.
For now, I'll stick to QtSimulator. At least it works as expected.
And there's one more thing I'm very concerned about: virtual keyboard handling. I write for IOS and there are application-wide "notifications" here, through which I can detect events of keyboard appearing/disappearing and it's coordinates on the screen. So that I can scroll needed input field into that part of the screen that it wouldn't be obscured by keyboard. Implementation of this mechanism on the IOS is pretty far from being perfect, but I get used to it: in most cases it works perfectly. I haven't found any information how it will be handled in Qt/QML/MeeGo/Harmattan. This seem strange to me, because it's crucial feature. Especially for keyboardless devices as N9

The N950 uses a normal SIM.

I have no idea about videos published somewhere by someone, but you can ask me about the videos published by Nokia.

Nokia has decided to offer the N950 to selected developers. This is all. Enjoy! If you want to make your voice heard by Nokia I recommend you to use Nokia Conversations since it's the right place for that.

xarcass, your developer questions are relative to MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan and not the N950 exclusively. I have posted the reply at http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?...2&postcount=20

There was some discussion in other threads, which mentioned that N950 comes with an older image of Harmattan. Since this is the place for specific N950 questions, I wanted to clarify this.

Is N950 Meego/Harmattan image really different from upcoming N9? Will it be upgradeable to the latest version, and will it be possible to receive updates there as N9 would?

Thanks.

Which version of Qt is it running? Is it the same version as N9 will have when shipped. If not, will it be upgraded once N9 hit the shelves?

Believe me, for developping an qwerty keyboard is far away better than his french azerty version.

No need to shift to enter point ... And many other little thing like that which matter in the end.

/me use qwerty keyboard everywhere .... and i'm french
