Any new user: please be aware that each single device is a bit different, especially when it comes to audio volume. Anyways, for me, SHR-U is a stable phone that doesn't require any kind of adjustment to have a working phone right after flashing.

Re: Any distro with working calls?
I've had pretty good luck with both QtEI (now called qtmoko) and OM2009TR5 - On OM2009 I had to tweak the default alsa config a bit. A thread about it, with what I did and various comments is at http://n2.nabble.com/-om2009-r4--Warren%27s-Settings-Worked-for-Me-%28was-Re%3A-Om2009-testing--release-4%29-tp3022756p3022756.html - note that there is some debate over whether this is a good idea. If you are having problems with the audio quality, I'd suggest you get a buzz fix as soon as possible. Until then, I'd suggest you tweak the alsa config file to see if you can get something usable - my process was to set my laptop next to a landline - run alsamixer via ssh, and then dial the landline from my FR. I then basically experiemented with the controls described in http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_Freerunner_audio_subsystemuntil I got something relatively buzz-free that still let me hear the other end.

Re: Any distro with working calls?
Hi list, Robin, Petr, thanks, I will try om2009 and SHR tomorrow. Last time I tried they was hardly usable. As of last week there is a new release of android available at koolu: http://www.koolu.org/releases/cupcake-1.5-alpha1/ stable, polished, also the battery issue seems to have been solved. Isn't that the one that cannot receive calls...? Yeah, it can't now -- people calling me says that my line is busy. But I'm _very_ impressed by Android. I hope receiving issue will be fixed soon. If you are having problems with the audio quality, I'd suggest you get a buzz fix as soon as possible. Will do soon. I've had pretty good luck with both QtEI (now called qtmoko)... Ah, it's a sore point. I'm a Qt developer and I really like Qt. But with QtExt 4.4.3 I was only possible to make outgoing calls with headset at more-or-less good quality level. All ingoing calls a _extremely_ loud, with strong echo, etc. And than I tried qtmoko (Qt Extended Improved)... Slow, very unstable.
