Hi All, I bricked mine too, and here my experiences in recovering.
I let my freerunner on and aparantly drained it completely: no way it would start up, battery without or with usb or power supply, nothing worked. I bought myself a nokia BL-5C (E34,-, thank you very much), plugged it in and the phone worked again. Only thing left was the original battery. Changing while running didn't work: everything (screen/button) I touched caused a complete shutdown. After looking at dmesg and the console when changing early in the boot process and at /sys/devices/platform/bq27000-battery.0/power_supply/bat/status (Read error), I concluded that it's driver would not load with the nokia and not later. It cost me several (8-10) tries to boot and change it fast enough after booting that the original battery was in before the driver loaded and the battery status file was read properly during the boot. The original battery is Charging now. Sincerly, Jan. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
