Re: Call volume

2009-04-14 Thread Robin Paulson
2009/4/13 B bburde...@comcast.net:
 What I was really wanting to know was whether anyone with a FR had their
 phone working at a reasonable call volume without having echo.  Not
 necessarily how they did it, although that is good info, but whether
 this was possible at all using the FR hardware.  I'm trying to decide
 whether to get another phone for day to day use, as my pre-FR phone is
 on its last legs.

yes, lots have managed it. volume was fine with 2008.12, and there
were no echoes

in other regards, 2008.12 isn't so great...

 that his Freerunner missed incoming calls. Sean M-P replied that this
 would be fixed really soon. I asked, When? and Sean said, June.


I have attended that talk as well and I also encountered (surprisingly)
many opinions at the Openmoko community stand saying the same. I can
only talk about my experience (I'm currently working on some dbus
testing infrastructure to say for sure), but telephony has been pretty
stable for me (using FSO and zhone) for about three months now. I'm
quite reluctant to say more about this until I have test results other
than none of my friends have asked me why I don't answer the phone any
more, but I had to clearify that if there still are problems with
incoming calls (which I honestly don't believe) then they are not
immediately noticable.

2009-04-14 Thread Sean Chadwell
A semi-pointless aside:

I've gathered there are some quoting problems in these threads, but I didn't
write what is attributed to me, here (actually, it's two different authors .
. . my own small contribution was elsewhere in the thread).

[all] accelerometer data errors

2009-04-14 Thread Robin Paulson
hi,
i recall a few months ago, there was a bug somewhere (possibly
kernel), that screwed up the data from the accelerometers. assuming i
didn't imagine this, has it been fixed yet?

i had a look around the wiki, but found nothing about it on these pages:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Accelerometer_data_retrieval
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Accelerometer_Fundamentals

cheers
