N900 CSSU - How to Install and Features.

Since Nokia discontinued their update for the Maemo 5 OS after rolling out PR 1.3 nicknamed Fremantle in 2010, there have been certain things missing from the Nokia N900 to keep it alive with its rivals.

However, the CSSU Update, Community Seamless Software Update, addresses this issue by adding cool new features such as portrait orientation for the menu and settings application. In addition to this, the camera application has been tweaked allowing users to change picture modes by pressing a letter, so "l" changes it to Landscape mode and "a" back to Automatic.

In this video, I go over how to get the CSSU Update and run over the features.

It should restart automatically, I don't see how that's managed to occur,reboot your phone and if that doesn't work, try re-installing the update again if you still can't access the notification bar.

I honestly have not got a clue. If you search on : talk.maemo.org or post an article, I'm 100% sure you'll be able to find out why.

Sorry but thank you for the support.

@andru2220 thanks, aha as long as you got it working it's all good.

I believe only certain applications are compatible with portrait mode, I believe settings and contacts are. Try them by closing the slide and holding the phone in portrait (obviously) with the "A" of "NOKIA" facing towards the floor.

@extremeluffy go onto your homescreen and tap the time, you should see at the bottom of the options a "auto-lock orientation" option, make sure it's not locked and it's on auto rotation enabled. when you're on the menu, make sure that the slide is closed and your N900 is in portrait mode, with the "A" for "Nokia" facing towards the floor

AFTER UPDATING, WILL IT RESTART AUTOMATICALLY? MINE GOES OFF AFTER UPDATING. THEN I NEED TO START THE DEVICE. THEN AFTER, I DONT EVEN SEE THE NOTIFICATION BAR.

ANY IDEA ?
