Yeah, you can get up to that many hours from QTe, too. Just go to settings - power management and set a time after Suspend at the settings when on battery. Works good here. QTe wakes up on calls or when you press power. It just takes one or two seconds. -- j�...@home ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

So if you change the suspend timeout, use the options button on the lower left to add them to your current profile. -- j�...@home ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
[SHR] Stopping wifi by hand? (or button?)
Hi! In SHR, I use Mofi-wifi to connect to my net at home. But how do I turn if off elegantly after I go outside, to save batter? Wifi keeps staying on after I kill Mofi. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
[SHR]: List of missed calls? SMS number selection?
Hi! SHR looks and feels very good, but I'm missing some features, maybe they are there, but haven't found them yet. * how can i view the list of missed calls? * After composing an SMS, how can I choose a number from my phonebook? * Is it possible to change the time till suspend? * How can I get rid of the receiving SMS windows?

Re: Best Dist only for GPS usage (and maybe wlan)?

Hey, I flashed again and now it's working. And I have to say: Wow! looks great and it's really fast, even tangogps is much snappier. Good advice, thanks!

Best Dist only for GPS usage (and maybe wlan)?
Hi! I'm going on holiday in two weeks and I intend to use my freerunner only as GPS-device without GSM-card there. I'd like to use tangoGPS and download loads of maps from google and OSM beforehand. The question is: which distribution would be the best? My wishes for fast access and best battery usage: - good power management - reliable suspend - waking up only on button pressed, not on touching screen - easy and fast turning on and off of GPS receiver (for browsing the maps indoors without reception) - fast start of TangoGPS (not like in FDOM!) - good control over extra phone services like wlan or bluetooth - finger-control - phone function is absolutely irrelevant! wlan would be nice, but is not crucial. Also: As far as I see, there seems to be no function in tangoGPS that shows you the direction (as the crow flies) to a selected waypoint, right? Is there an application which can do that? So that I can easily set a point and find my way back later, just like in my old Garmin eTrex? Any hints are appreciated! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
qtopia: 4.3.3 too sloooooow
Hi! I used qtopia for a while now as my regular phone. And I was quite happy with it. I just flashed the 4.3.3 version to the card. But this version is absolutly unusable. First: the neo freezes when in suspend. I have to re-insert the battery to get it going again. Second: When I call the neo (not suspended) from my land line, it takes about 8 seconds before it even starts vibrating. Then after about 8 more seconds it starts ringing. By that time voicemail has already taken the call. So it's impossible to answer my phone. Also: The device seems to hang for half a minute very often. Is this normal? What can I do to get a working phone again?

Re: Official Debian port

Now my old problem is fixed but I encountered another one. I get lots of messages: /sbin/getty: cannot excute binary file So do neo1973 and freerunner use different binary formats? btw: how can I reset the device once it panicked?

Using gmail with qtopia?
Hi! Has anyone successfully managed to send or receive pop and smtp email via gmail (googlemail) using qtopia (version from 2008-08-09)? I have set it up as POP, pop.googlemail.com (German gmail-domain) and port 995. There doesn't seem to be a working button for security settings. For SMTP I used smtp.googlemail.com and port 465. In both cases (send or receive) the connection times out after a while. I have checked both network and DNS settings. All seem ok. Any ideas? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
finger-scrolling in contact list in qtopia?
Hi! In some lists in qtopia only stylus-scrolling using the scrollbars seem to work. Thats annoying when you have some hundred contacts and no stylus is at hand. The help page says you can jump to an entry by entering the name, but there's no keyboard displayed... Is there some way to get around the stylus here?

That actually makes sense :-) You can try a recent stable kernel (from Openmoko), I think a few days ago a patch was checked in that enables ext2 support. So a recent stable kernel should be able to boot from an ext2 partition. Yeah, I tried the most recent kernel I could get my hands on and it works now! Great!
