 Starting bid is 100$, no reserve, free shipping.

 Phone is like new, it always had a zack invisible shield for the full

 Headset have never been used, and it comes with the pouch. (i lost the

 I can provide more picture and more info in request.
 At the moment, it is loaded with the 2008.12 version of software.

You forgot to say whether this was the 850 or 900 model.

 From the fact that the phone is located in the US, I'm assuming it's 
the 850 model.

meeting in Braunschweig

2009-01-07 Thread Marek Lindner

Hi,

yesterday, we (Mickey, Daniel, Jan, Stefan, Ray and me) sat together in 
Braunschweig to discuss the next steps regarding the builds / images / feeds / 
2.6.28 / etc.

Here is the summary of the outcome:

= latest / experimental package feed
* This feed contains the latest version (autorev) of specific packages such as 
the framework, paroli, others? for developers.
* Ray will decide what name is going to be used for this feed.

= unstable images / package feed
* All necessary build information come from OE upstream except for a few minor 
customization as repository URLs, additional packages, etc but no autorev. 
* Images is built only with a release of a new FSO milestone which will be 
tagged in the OE tree. Packages are built every day and offered via the feed.

= testing images / packages feed
* At some point prior to the release (e.g. 2 months) the testing branch forks 
from OE. It will contain Openmoko customizations and cherry picked fixes from 
upstream. 
* Until then the current testing builds will be suspended.

= stable images / packages feed
* Once the testing branch is bug free enough it will be declared stable. 
Maintenance fixes can go into this branch.

= build location
* Ray needs to find a workable compromise for all parties involved (building in 
Taipeh or in a data center).

= build frontend
* Outside parties want to know the status of the builds / versions / build 
errors.
* Ray tries to get familiar with oestats / tinderbox. In the first step he will 
upload our build information to http://tinderbox.openembedded.net until he 
configured an oestats machine.

= 2.6.28
* Framework already supports both kernels (.24  .28).
* Next FSO milestone will come with support for both kernels. If .28 proves to 
be stable enough in the coming weeks .24 support may be removed immediately.

= misc:
* Remove OM bitbake (features went upstream according to Holger).
* Ray will write a detailed announcement to explain how to get $your_package 
included in the OM repositories as OM is going to shutdown the (binary only) 
community repository.
* Future releases will use a distro-update package to update the machines of 
the existing user base.

Indian FR Owners

2009-01-07 Thread Vibhav Sharma
Hi all,

I'm sure there are about 100-200 of us (Indian FR Owners) out there. 
Atleast it appears so from what Rakshat of IDA systems tells us.

The wiki though, shows not that many.

I'm guessing most of us would be lurkers on this list. Anybody 
interested in a meetup to discuss what all we've 'done' / 'not-done' / 
'plan to do' and 'cried over for' with the FR?

I'm in Gurgaon and would be happy to help organise one for NCR. Please 
reply of-list in case you are interested.

For the other cities, please mail me or update wiki so that we get the 
Indian Chapter of FR owners up and running.

I suggest starting by describing your proposed application here.  I'm
sure people will make comments and suggestions that will allow you to
develop the specification and design.

 What lanugare should I start with?

Probably C or Python - but you don't necessarily need to worry about

Thanks for putting sms-sentry in the opkg database. I have just installed

I have one question : in the file sms-sentry.default, there is:
PASSWORD=12345

but I haven't seen the use of this password in the python nor the sh file.
Could you please tell us how to use the password ?

Thanks in advance

By the way, there is another project dealing with actions commited by sms

There is a plugin which seems to do the same as sms-sentry

Is it the same project or are theses 2 completely different ?

Openmoko and Arduino, a good team

Since I know about Openmoko project I always see it like a perfect
brain, HMI interface and communication platform but it lacks of I/O,
sensors interfaces to create an high end and versatile FreeSource?
based embedded solution to control machines, but then I know about
Arduino (external link).
Since then I saw they was born to be together and I'm not the only one.
Miguel Ángel Vílchez López has made a video where a Neo Freerunner
interface a Arduino board to control a servo through Neo's
accelerometers.

 I think that's a userspace work around to issue:

 AT%SLEEP=2

 to the modem, not a kernel fix.

There is a parameter to control this in /etc/frameworkd.conf but I think SHR 
applies it by default. There is a section that should look something like 
this:

[ogsmd]
modemtype = ti_calypso
ti_calypso_deep_sleep = never

The second parameter controls whether ogsmd uses the AT%SLEEP=2 workaround 
permanently (deep_sleep = never) or if it uses it only when it detects #1024 
type behaviour (deep_sleep = auto? check the source...) In FSO the 
autodetection is default (parameter not present in config), but I think SHR 
adds the parameter to their config file.

I don't think this is the problem though. I have seen this happen while using 
the parameter above, and with debug logging of frameworkd enabled to confirm 
#1024 wasn't happening. I suspect either incorrect battery level indication 
in the GUI, some runaway process eating CPU, or some other cause of power 
hogging. Sadly I haven't been able to track it down yet.

Re: [2008.12] Mediaplayer

2009-01-07 Thread Timo Jyrinki
2009/1/6 Giovanni pino.o...@gmail.com:
 can you share your python app for switching the profiles?

Actually no, since I've just extended the mokoservices.py from
freeyourphone.de forums
(http://freeyourphone.de/portal_v1/viewtopic.php?f=21t=295), and
there is no indication that the script would be public domain or free
software. So I can't distribute the changed version unless the author
has somewhere publicly stated that the script is indeed actually GPL'd
or public domain.

Anyway, I've basically just added a few GTK buttons to the script, for example:
---
# music profile

button = gtk.Button(music)
button.connect(clicked, self.musicprofile,musicprofile)
table.attach(button, 2, 3, 2, 3,xoptions=gtk.EXPAND, yoptions=gtk.EXPAND
)
button.show()
---
...with callbacks which simply call scripts in the home dir /home/root:
---
def musicprofile(self,button,data):
output=subprocess.Popen([sh,/home/root/m], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).c
ommunicate()[0]

def phoneprofile(self,button,data):
output=subprocess.Popen([sh,/home/root/p], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).c
ommunicate()[0]

def speakerprofile(self,button,data):
output=subprocess.Popen([sh,/home/root/s], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).c
ommunicate()[0]
---

The scripts are, in order, just:
m:
 alsactl -f /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/headset.state restore
p:
 alsactl -f /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/gsmhandset.state restore
s:
 alsactl -f /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/stereoout.state restore

These huge efforts are in public domain on my behalf ;)

Re: Zhone frequent wake

2009-01-07 Thread Dylan Reilly
Thank you for your help and sorry I did not get it the first time around.

After much digging, I found that frameworkd is, in fact, sending the
correct commands to the modem when suspend is called on the framework.
The problem on my system was that apm -s was being invoked directly
in rules.yaml instead if Suspend(). After fixing that, power button
suspend is working great.

This leads to a follow-up question. Does anyone know if it is possible
to easily change (i.e., without re-compiling) the way
enlightenment/illume suspends? The power management through
enlightenment seems to still use apm -s instead of the framework. It
would be nice to have the automatic suspend working as well.

On Mon, Jan 5, 2009 at 11:33 AM, arne anka openm...@ginguppin.de wrote:
 understand why it would be necessary to change the way suspend is
 activated as I think you may be suggesting.

 not the way, suspend is activated but the activities executed when
 suspending.
 you could simply add the four commands before the call to apm -s. of
 course you would need to reset the commands' results on resume.

 last time i checked fso calling apm -s did not exectute the files in
 /etc/apm/suspend.d/ (and resume.d on resume), so you need to make sure,
 that upon suspend these commands are executed.

its definitively the connector inside the Freerunner GTA02 6.

When I 'wiggle' the connector the speaker cracks and the red LED blinks

 I thought it was the interndiate USB B - USB A converter but now I

 Either that, or your battery is _very_ empty. It gives almost the same signs.
 
 Leave it alone with the charger in it for a couple of hours, then try
 to boot again.

Re: Openmoko keyboard mockup

2009-01-07 Thread Ian
 i'd rather not. 1. trollt.. err.. nokia deserve thanks for the core 
 inspiration
 and initial work on their one - i didn't know how the code worked until later
 but i nutted out how it probably should work just by poking at it. so if 
 anyone
 deserves a patent - it's them. 2. i'd rather this be well publicised and out
 there code in the public eye - so the idea is widespread and well known - 
 thus
 serves as prior art pretty much making it impossible for someone to come along
 and patent the idea and make things a pain. get the ideas out there in code -
 in the public eye with a trail of history so it's available for everyone to 
 see
 and use. if someone implements a better kbd but steals the same idea - i'm
 sticking my thumbs up going good on-ya mate! i want users and the community
 to benefit. 3. i fundamentally disagree with software patents - or at least 
 the
 way they have been implemented. the vast majority i have seen are neither 
 novel
 nor non-obvious to someone skilled in the art. most are incredibly mundane
 straightforward things to someone skilled in the art and the system has been
 abused to further greed and misplace credit in the hands of those with more
 lawyers, not those who innovate the most or the best. be that as it may - the
 system is there and we are stuck with it. i'm not a crusader trying to bring 
 it
 down - i don't have the time. got code to write and ideas to make happen :) 
 but
 i hope in my little way i can shake my fist at the system and go here... 
 prior
 art. take that!. i'll let others fight the good fight in trying to reform the
 patent system. i'm just rattling my chains and moaning in my corner...
 'brains! brains! braiins! need moore brains!' :)


Raster... you are my new hero. It's not the first time I've heard this
kind of argument (Andrew Tridgell made a very similar argument at a

Good work on the keyboard,

If you look at the patent itself (wikipedia says:

pointless diagrams and 7 pages of a very vague description of how a
reduced keyboard disambiguating computer.
At a very fast lecture, the patent might not even apply to our case,
since it says:
The keyboard has twelve keys, nine of them labeled with numerous
letters and other symbols, and those nine plus one more are labeled each

keys you're safe. I wouldn't be surprised if T2-T26 would be patented too..

the USB connector had never reached the case of the FreeRunner and the
connector can only make little movements, this with the USB cable's jack and
with the wall charger's jack too.
Although, I've just buyed a car charger (Motorola Fast Rate Car Chrager
P510) wich has a mini-USB connector. This connector is harder to push into
the FreeRunner and the connector seams to go deeper. I think is not a
problem, also standard USB connectos behave in that way.

Have a nice day!

 Hi Helge,
 
 Nice icon! By the way, the 'contention' so far is to use the ABC overlay
 for alphanumeric keyboard and the QWERTY overlay for terminal keyboards.
 I thought you've made a terminal keyboard, or do you have both now?
 
 Of course you are free to choose the icon yourself, but for users to
 know what to expect, using the convention can have advantages.
 
I didn't know the convention. I made a terminal keyboard because
that is what I use most, and I have my doubts about dictionaries.

The reason I used the ABC overlay was simple - the QWERTY overlay
obscured so much of the flag, it was hard to see what flag it is.
Maybe it can be made more transparent, or use QWERTY written with
a thinner/smaller font?

Re: Openmoko keyboard mockup

2009-01-07 Thread Ian
  Maybe it would be better to have a full-screen input mode where you
 can see what will be typed (maybe keep the rightmost 20-30 characters of
 the string visible in the keyboard app, then actually pass it to the
 program when leaving 'full-screen' mode or pressing 'enter', etc). That
 still allows you to see what you are typing with a full-screen keyboard
 (which is what it seems most people are wanting from the transparency).

  Extra points could be awarded for allowing applications to give the
 keyboard app a description of the 'active' field to be displayed
 in a 'full-screen' mode.


Yeah, that reminds me a lot of the fullscreen keyboard on the Nokia N800:
http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/n800.ars/4

The keyboard can be brought up by either:
- If enough pressure is applied to select a text field (significantly
more than the stylus can, but still only requires a firm push with a
finger/thumb), though this doesn't always work reliably
- Pressing the rocker key in the middle of the directional keypad
when the stylus keyboard is displayed
- Changing the settings can enable it to always come up, even when the
stylus is used (or disable it altogether).

Once displayed, some notable functions which may not be obvious from a
screen shot:
 - If it was activated for a text field which can be edited (ie, not
an X terminal), the text will be placed in the text field on the
keyboard
 - The text field in the keyboard supports highlighting, overwriting,
moving left/right and so forth
 - As a word is entered, the single most likely completion in it's
dictionary will be displayed in the text field in another colour - if
tapped on, it will enter that word.
 - the button on the upper left (an underlined down arrow) dismisses
the keyboard and passes it's input to the application
 - the return button will also dismiss the keyboard, but will
additionally send a return keystoke
 - The large back key is backspace
 - The odd looking button just left of the return key brings up a menu
allowing cut, copy, paste and changing dictionaries/languages if a
second language has been selected in the settings (which appears to
also have the option to use both dictionaries simultaneously, though I
have not tried that functionality).
 - On the letters page, the lower right button selects punctuation in
a similar manner to many phones (1 tap: full stop, 2 taps: comma, 3:
question mark, 4: exclamation mark, 5: hyphen and so on). As it is
tapped, the symbols displayed update to indicate the current symbol
selected (in black) as well as the next two symbols that would be
selected by continuing to tap (in grey). These same symbols may also
be found on the 1!+ (numbers and common* symbols) tab, though they are
each on separate buttons (so, faster to enter ... for example)
 - Selecting the letters tab while in the tab swaps between lower and upper case

*what is considered a common symbol is debatable - the asterisk is on
the third tab, while Euros and Pounds are on the common symbols tab -
since I'm in Australia my preference would be to swap that around.
Notably, there are also many symbols (including accented characters)
which can be used in the small keyboard, which are not available in
the fullscreen keyboard at all (as far as I am aware).

You can also see an earlier version of the non full screen keyboard
(which I do not believe would be suitable for something as small as
the freerunner, especially with no stylus holder) here:
http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/n800.ars/2

I personally wouldn't mind something similar to this on the freerunner
- probably best used in landscape/fullscreen mode with raster's
keyboard for portrait/small mode - accelerometer fun comes to mind to
toggle the modes - only needs to be active (and draining power) when
the keyboard is displayed (and probably a setting to disable the
behaviour somewhere logical).

Cheers,
-Ian

To verify:

1) When you shutdown, remove the battery, plug in power and move the USB
connector carefully a little bit, do you hear static/cracking sound from
the speaker?

2) When you put the battery in, boot,  plug in the power and move the
USB connector carefully a little bit, do you see the screen brightness
alter?

3) When you remove the power, put FreeRunner in USB host mode, connect
an external USB keyboard and move the USB connector carefully a little
bit, do you see the LEDs lights on the keyboard up/flicker and the
possibility to enter characters via the keyboard is very difficult?

4) (other non-related hardware issue) Is the LED and laser pointer of
your stylus at 25% brightness and does it sometimes go to 100% when you
unscrew and rescrew the battery part of the sylus?

Unfortunately, for me all the above questions I have to answer positively.

Can more people do the above checks and report back here how their
device performs in this thread?

Re: /bin/sh: Syntax error: ( unexpected building kernel

2009-01-07 Thread Tarandeep Gill
Thanks Fox,

That worked. I am sorry, but I am a little naive at all this. I have
another question:

I am compiling the Openmoko Kernel for s3c6410 architecture. I have a
SMDK6410 board, and according to Andy, this version of kernel runs on
SMDK6410 with some degree of success. It would be really appreciated
if I can get a little idea about how to get this thing running on the
board. :)

Thanks again,

This happened to me as well, but I did notice the different packages

[2008.* | Qtopia and whatever else uses Qtopia PIM] Sqlite DB speed trick

2009-01-07 Thread nick d.
Saw this on reddit the other day and thought it might help [1].

sqlite3 has a vacuum command which does a few nifty things to
compact your database [2] in which the example shows you can do it to
your firefox 3 sqlite db files to increase performance (in things like
the awesome bar etc). I thought I might try this on my phone as I know
the qtopia PIM suite uses sqlite3. So to do this on 2008.* (and
assuming this works on Qtopia distro):

0. make sure you have sqlite3 and lsof installed
 opkg install sqlite3 lsof

1. check your file sizes for comparison:
  ls -l ~/Applications/qtmail/qtopia_db.sqlite
  ls -l  ~/Applications/Qtopia/qtopia_db.sqlite

2. stop your xserver to remove the lock on the db files:
   /etc/init.d/xserver-nodm stop

3. check to make sure nothing is using the files
  lsof ~/Applications/qtmail/qtopia_db.sqlite
  lsof ~/Applications/Qtopia/qtopia_db.sqlite

4. Compact
 sqlite3 ~/Applications/qtmail/qtopia_db.sqlite
 sqlite3 ~/Applications/Qtopia/qtopia_db.sqlite

5. Restart X
 /etc/init.d/xserver-nodm start

6. Check file sizes again
 ls -l ~/Applications/qtmail/qtopia_db.sqlite
  ls -l  ~/Applications/Qtopia/qtopia_db.sqlite

7. ???

8. Profit!


This reduced my filesize from 195584 to 97280 for my
qtmail/qtopia_db.sqlite file. I can't work out how to test performance
other than experientially because of my lack of knowledge of qtopia
debugging. Hopefully this means less files to load in memory which
should equate to slightly quicker performance. It certainly worked for
my firefox.

 Do at your own risk! Although I'm sure that sqlite's own locking
mechanisms will stop you from nuking your db files. Good luck! And let
me know of your success (definitely not failure)! :P

-Nick

Try forcing it to 500ma using one of the battery.py scripts on the wiki.
I used a car charger yesterday (650ma) that didnt even show as plugged
in until I forced it to 500ma and then it was fine.  However, its
useless for jump starting/trickle charging as the phone must be up to
turn it on - as I found out when the battery drained ... :(

 The supplied cable is very handy, it has all kinds of optional plugs

Re: stupid networking question

2009-01-07 Thread Joel Newkirk
Sorry, I'd misssed this reply last night somehow.

What is in /etc/network/interfaces on the eeepc, and are you using
NetworkManager?  If using NM, is it the default NM from Ubuntu, or Kubuntu,
or something else?  This sounds to me like the NM is getting confused.
Also, are you using WPA or WEP on the wifi? (Shouldn't matter, but if using
NM now then changing to static config is more involved with WPA/WEP
enabled) 

The problem I see most frequently with 8.10's NM is that it gets confused
about statically-configured interfaces - EG, I have a workstation on a
static public IP on eth0, and when I jack in the FR on usb0, NM brings up
usb0 with the same friggin public IP, and tries to route packets through
the FR instead of ethernet...

That would certainly prevent mooing.  If the accelerometers don't work,
you should still be able to test the audio parts by pressing the cow

I think there might still be some locking problems lurking in the

[Qt Extended 4.4.2] [PATCH] Added echo suppression fixes for the OpenMoko Neo phone.

2009-01-07 Thread Chris Samuel
Hi all,

My previous patch for echo suppression was completely bogus, once I'd figured 
out I could get the logging program to record all AT commands to the modem it 
was obvious that it wasn't sending the intended command asides from when an 
outgoing call occured (which is what the original QtE did).  Turns out I'd 
misunderstood the QtE build system and it was never looking at the code and 
when I fixed that it was painfully obvious that my lack of C++ knowledge meant 
I'd never get it to work in that state.

So I went back to the drawing board and changed it to use the AT%N0187 command 
to enable both noise reduction and echo suppression in one hit as I worry that 
the original method of using a command for each would result in the previous 
command being undone.  I also added them to a couple of other places where 
they looked like they'd be important such as on initialisation and on wake 
from suspend.

I'm using a slightly earlier version of the following patch (only removed two 
comments and inserted some blank lines) on my Neo at the moment and it seems 
to be working fine - on a test call from a train I was told there was no echo 
(with the volume at max and mic gain right up) but that I sounded like I was 
in a bathroom, i.e. there was a bit of reverb. :-)

I'm not convinced that it's completely foolproof as I don't know if it'll 
remain enabled if I get two incoming calls without a suspend in between.

But it's still a lot better than what I've been having to put up with since I 
got this going!

I hope it's of use to others too..

cheers,
Chris

 -8 snip snip 8

The original Qt Extended 4.4.2 initially set both echo
suppression and noise reduction in separate AT commands
which might result in the second command negating the
first one.  It also only set them for outgoing calls.

This new version uses the AT command to set both
echo suppression and noise reduction at the same
time as well as setting them on initialisation and
after a wake up.

New Mailing List- Testing

2009-01-07 Thread sushama

Dear Community,

Its my pleasure to announce this new mailing list 'Testing'.
 
You can subscribe to this mailing list from    :

 http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/testing
 
The idea behind starting this mailing list is to filter out the testing related 
issues/discussions that happen in devel or community mailing list. We 
invite all the community members to join force in helping us test and provide 
more bug reports in making Openmoko a robust product.Thanks to every one for 
all the support and involvement we have had till now and hoping to have this 
continued support through this new mailing list. Your bug reports and     
comments will help us prioritize where we focus our resources.This will go a 
long way in helping us to test the products and having an open phone as robust 
as this which we are all dreaming of.
 
There are many tricky issues that cannot be verified with a few 
phones/tests. In this scenario, hence it would become more meaningful if we as 
Openmoko and the community can verify this together. We can also have our 
testing reports/plan/test design sent out to the mailing list as and when we 
update them so that we can have all your feedback in helping us achieve our 
common goal, which is - Robust Freed Phone.
 
See you all in the new mailing list with lots more discussions to shape up the 
future of an open phone.

Regards,
Sushama

Re: Has anyone tried Qi?

2009-01-07 Thread Tarandeep Gill
Hi,

I have a SMDK6410 board. I have successfully compiled  dfu-util, Qi,
and Openmoko kernel on my Ubuntu machine.

The SMDK6410 is just as I got it from the company, I haven't modified
its firmware. I have connected it to my computer with a  USB cable,
that goes into the OTG USB host port on the board (This is how the
Windows DNW utility transfers a Win CE image to the board).

So, when I use dfu-util to try to burn the Qi image into it, I get the
following error:

r...@conectech-desktop# ./dfu-util -a u-boot -R
-D../qi/image/qi-s3c6410-master_84e38630c7135c1f.udfu
dfu-util - (C) 2007-2008 by OpenMoko Inc.
This program is Free Software and has ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY

No DFU capable USB device found


Can you please tell me how to transfer the boot loader and the kernel
to the NAND?

I also have an Olimex OCD (that connects to the JTAG interface on the
board) , if it is needed anyway.

Thanks,

Tarandeep

 The sound thing is a kernel issue I believe.  Up in stable-tracking
 branch of kernel the upstream init of the codec chip is done differently
 now and I think this is resolved.  But stable-tracking has some issues
 being worked on that stop it replacing stable right now.

 The empty battery thing on GTA02 A5 anyway is a hardware issue that is
 happening before the CPU is booted, so Qi can't directly affect it.  It
 can indirectly affect it though, when it does run it enables charging
 immediately.
