Holders of N9 trying to put pressure on Nokia to get a tracking their smartphone. They thus set up a petition.
In June 2011, at an event held in Singapore, the manufacturer announced its Nokia N9, a high-end smartphone friendly system Meego, which is a partnership with Intel. A few days after its launch, Stephen Elop, CEO of the Finnish manufacturer, confirmed that it was the first and last MeeGo phone manufactured by Nokia boarding, the company has signed an agreement with Microsoft.
For consumers, the turnaround is not as simple. Indeed, through a petition posted on the website change.org explained that the builder had promised to distribute updates through 2015. Last summer, Nokia has deployed MeeGo / Harmattan version 1.2 on the N9. This package brought some 3500 patches. Since no new version was offered for download.
"We belong to this group of strange people: customers who have purchased a Nokia N9," begins the text of the petition. Several problems that Nokia has made no patch are then described. It is particularly question of a loss of autonomy, poor records management with IMAP or problems about SMS and Calendar applications.
Nokia has released the Symbian and all revolves around its developers applications for Windows Phone. The manufacturer is not able to meet these demands - and thus keep its promises. Members of the development team left to form MeeGo society Jolla. These working on a derived OS called Sailfish. But Nokia did not want to give drivers access smartphone to allow porting the OS. For its part, Intel has approached Samsung to develop Tizen, which aims to modernize Bada.
Remains whether the pressure of holding a N9 will have any effect on a possible official port of Sailfish or Tizen.
