[Qtmoko] how to disable GSM function
Hi, (¹) Thanks for your great job. More I use it more I love it (especially because it is debian based). Because I want to limit at the maximum GSM functionality (particularly the radio frequency) , is there a way to stop/resume this GSM functionality on the fly (that is without shutdown the phone). Many thanks for any clue. Kind regards.

Freerunner won't charge
Help! I made a USB gender changer per the instructions here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Specialized_USB_cables#How_to_make_a_type_A_jack_to_a_type_A_jack_adapter_.28gender_changer.29 and it tested okay with a multimeter, then I tested it with a USB keyboard and it worked as expected, then I plugged in a small multi-card reader with a microSD card in it, and since then my Freerunner will not charge via any method. It still works perfectly in device mode, and even host mode (providing power to external devices even), but it won't charge from a laptop via USB cable or from the wall AC adapter. Is there any way I can fix this thing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. --Ron ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Can your FR still draw power from USB to other parts than battery? -Timo ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Freerunner won't charge
No idea. *shrug* How would I test that? Where else does power go when it comes in from the USB port? The light that should come on when plugged into a charge source does not come on, (orange or blue) if that helps to answer the question, and the charge indicator never indicates that it's charging. SHR Settings for Power never show that it's receiving a charge regardless of mA settings. I have the GTA02 A7 and I've tried 2 Freerunner batteries in it (one is brand new), and my Nokia BL-5C battery which last I checked Openmoko wiki said was compatible. Same results with all 3 batteries. --Ron On Wed, 2011-06-29 at 11:42 +0300, Timo Juhani Lindfors wrote: Ronald Tallent r...@tallent.ws writes: small multi-card reader with a microSD card in it, and since then my Freerunner will not charge via any method.

Ronald Tallent r...@tallent.ws writes: No idea. *shrug* How would I test that? Use om battery consumption or similar to measure how much the Freerunner draws energy from the battery. Then connect the USB cable and check if it draws any less. Where else does power go when it comes in from the USB port? The light that should come on when plugged into a charge source does not come on, That's pure software, don't rely blindly :-) -Timo ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Freerunner won't charge
Use om battery consumption or similar to measure how much the Freerunner draws energy from the battery. Then connect the USB cable and check if it draws any less. Doesn't seem to change. There's 0 drop in battery consumption as reported by om battery consumption when I plug in the USB cable or the AC adapter. Is there any hope for this thing? Thanks for your help thus far. =) --Ron ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Did you give a look at air plane mode? Shame on me. A lot of tanks. But there is a bug (¹) : phone doesn't re-register to GSM network after leaving airplane mode. I get no network (french translation of pas de réseau) message. I can re-register to GSM network only if I restart Qt Extended. (¹) I can't check because I can't access to the bug page on the new sourceForge wiki -- Philippe Monroux E 55.3 S 21.5 ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

What do you see with om usb charger-mode om battery charger-limit om usb charger-limit when it is connected?

om usb charger-mode reading usb charger mode: no such file or directory also tried setting the charger mode and got the same no such file or directory message. om battery charger-limit reading battery charger limit: no such file or directory om usb charger-limit reading usb charger limit: no such file or directory ~$ om usb mode = device ~$ om battery energy = 29 ~$ om battery consumption AC USB adapter plugged in = 104024.8 avg over 2.5 minutes No power adapter = 107999.8 avg over 2.5 minutes when it is connected? no difference in any messages execpt for the consumption whether it was was plugged in or not. All tests with GSM off (no SIM card installed). Am I missing some dependancy somewhere for omhacks? Or is it just not finding some piece of hardware? --Ron ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Sounds like your kernel is too new or your omhacks is too old. What do you see with om --version and uname -r? And what distro was this again? -Timo ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
