Re: T-Mobile with ASU on GTA01?
I'm everything but an expert (quite the contrary..) but maybe the programmers can learn something valuable from you if it works with some images and not with another, they might be able to identify (part) of the problem. It might be useful if you post some more information: (type of sim card, images that work, images that don't work) y On Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 4:58 AM, Chris Hessing [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So at the risk of starting this thread back up, why does my SIM work with two of the images, but not the others?

Re: T-Mobile with ASU on GTA01?
You surely are right in some points, you might even be right with the broken modem (still trying to figure that out), but I strongly disagree with you in the most other points (off topic, but I'll reply anyway). On Wed, Jul 9, 2008 at 10:23 AM, Marcus Bauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] You may have one of the broken GSM modems. From my four phones two have a broken GSM - that's 50%. My 1973 seems to be fine, I did calls with all images on the Freerunner, too, and can't tell what are software-problems and what not. They constantly reconnect to the cell tower and inbetween the can't make phone calls and loose the GPRS connection but without notifying the pppd. Can't confirm this for 100% of the cases, I did some calls on the 1973 over the last year, even ones with some minutes and it was fine. The main problem was the miserable sound quality. At least that seems to be hardware-fixed in GTA02. Didn't test much GPRS, but had no loss of connection yet. This is the same with the mature OM2007.2 images as well as with the professionally by Trolltech developed pure qtopia images, the ASU images the the new hyped FSO images. Imho the OM2007.2 images are all but mature. Even ASU is more predictable and reliable (except the Qtopia on X11 parts). Qtopia is ok, Qtopia on X11 is a mess and still not really working most of the time. This is another hardware problem which is shared with the Neo 1973 and thus known since a year. The answer by Dr. Michael Lauer was Guys, this is a Heisenbug. We pray that it does not occur too often in the field.. I wonder that I haven't heard of this yet, but let's hope they are figure it out and fix it. That is a very interesting engineering approach... :( The bug in question is: http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1024 The big problem with Openmoko is this not invented here mentality. The OM2007.2 images were working well, GTK is a valid platform for mobile gadgets (see Nokia N700, N800, N810), you can add bling (see clutter) and there is a huge developer base. The qtopia port to X adds a second huge developer base. Like said before, they are (at least for me) all but working well (not even to mention the UI design with 2-color icons without ever knowing what they might mean). I don't see how GTK will bring the huge userbase. Nobody knew about EFL/ASU/FSO from the release of neo1973 until december, but there barely was any development. In my opinion the reason is, that there was no real API, mostly not even backends (except a messy GPSD and GSMD). The FSO-stack is what's needed to get that API and to get the developers. They don't want to have a 1-Toolkit-Strategy, they mostly want a nice stack to work with and use for their frontend what ever they want. Btw. - the main developer of the so called Underground realized that a year ago. The userbase of Nokias Internet Tablet Series is huge, but it looks for me as the developerbase isn't that big in relation, and that with a GTK-stack. Even Nokia bought Trolltech, and I bet they'll drop GTK eventually (and this is a huge sign, as GTK is LGPL and so much more interesting for commercial and closed source apps than Qtopia with GPL and commercial licenses!). They are paying the Trolltech folks now, and they are also paying EFL developers. Looks like the CAN see beyond their own nose. Qtopia doesn't add a huge developer base. Qtopia was used mainly in closed environments, there is no open source developerbase. Note that I talk about Qtopia, not about Qt. I like Qt as much I like GTK and I think both are really necessary on the Openmoko platform (as much as I dislike much parts of KDE and especially GNOME). The biggest project with the NIH-syndrom is definitely GNOME. They do _all_ from scratch, they'd never ever use anything that's not from them. Hell, I'm glad that there is FDO to coordinate between them and the (still imho) much less arrogant KDE people. The bling-argument with clutter can be just a joke, talking about a platform without OpenGL capable drivers (and for the coming device even without OpenGL capable hardware). But instead of going on and having a base for testing the hardware, there came this change to ASU and etk which probably 0.1% of Linux developers use. And despite what Lauer Co try to make us believe, this alienates GTK and qt developers. Just look on the planets of KDE and GNOME - nearly no mentionings. The developer mailing list: a big void. I don't see your point here (exepct that you are GTK- and maybe GNOME-developer and don't like other platforms). Etk behaves under Illume/Enlightenment just like GTK and Qt do. There's no difference at all. Nobody is forced to use Etk and nobody ever will. The difference is, that you can use what you want without to be forced to use something specifically (like Qtopia without X11). Im also glad, that it looks like there is no need for Evolution and GConf in future, I personally don't like them and don't want to be forced to use them.
Re: T-Mobile with ASU on GTA01?
Dear Marcus, your mail touches many subjects and let me just pick out a few: First of all thanks for buying 4 phones from us! We are still an 'Open Source project' more than a company and people need to believe in the bigger picture to buy from us now. Believe it or not - we all eat our own dog food. You cannot believe how many mails Steve wrote to me complaining about his broken/buggy/ unchargeable/etc. Neo. I admit that I am carrying two phones around with me, a Blackberry and a Neo. Want to replace the Blackberry but we are not there yet. dogfood, i.e. using the Neo as their daily phone, things like oszillating GSM modems, non working GPS, SIM cards, deep discharge batteries, noisy headsets would have been since long ironed out. Exactly our top priorities. I am amazed by how closely you are watching what's going on with Openmoko. Let me just clarify this: We are not (knowingly) shipping defective products. Our complete production testing software is under GPL now (http://git.openmoko.org/?p=system-test-suite.git;a=summary ) Every peripheral of every phone is tested in the factory. (BTW, we are trying to open this up more, with open factory statistics etc. But that's a long-term goal) So some people see bugs. All the things you list above. In certain situations, certain countries, with certain GSM base stations, certain SIM cards, etc. etc. And after months and months of improving the Neo, we decided to start shipping. Get more Neos out into real life, get more customer feedback. Because in the end that's the only thing that can really focus the whole company. Engineers are self-loving animals sometimes. Do not over-estimate the power Sean or me or Steve have over some of these guys. But when the mailing lists have people who paid money for their phones, everybody will listen. Openmoko is different, we do all this openly. If you want to return your two non-working phones, I'm sure we find a solution. We will absolutely make sure that you get two fully functioning phones in return. Hope this helps (a bit, I know you still have 2 phones with broken GSM as you say), keep us honest :-) Best Regards, Wolfgang On Jul 9, 2008, at 4:23 PM, Marcus Bauer wrote: On Wed, 2008-07-09 at 09:25 +0200, thomasg wrote: ASU works basically, but getting telephony work with it is a matter of luck.

For fun, I also played with the FSO image, and had no problem. When I flashed a current ASU image (if my terminology is correct, the ASU image is the Qt/X11 image), it didn't work. The signal strength indication would change from time-to-time, but when I dialed it just said dialing, and the phone on the other end didn't ring. (There was also no indication that the phone had registered with the T-Mobile network.) Has anyone seen this? Should I even be expecting it to work?
