battery with replaced protection circuit module
Hi colleagues, I've got the idea to get the circuit form my old GTA2 battery and solder it on the new LiPo (non original) battery to get back full functionality. I've learned the circuit scheme and data-sheet http://people.openmoko.org/tony_tu/GTA02/hardware/GTA02/CT-GTA02.pdf and found that there are no special requirements concerning the battery itself. S8211CAB-I6T1G data-sheet has nothing like this too. The questions are: 1. is it possible theoretically replace body of the battery and resolder the old protection board on it? 2. is anybody had this sort of experience ever? thank you in advance for any hints.

[QtMoko] New non original battery
Hi colleagues, I've got fresh new battery replacement (Garmin GPS Mobile 10x 1100 mAh Li-ion) form ebay. Everything works fine and predictable. Current strength is not reported :) But, is there any method to switch charging indicator off? and, maybe, force it to show real capacity? as far as I know that is not an issue of the battery itself, it could be measured my the external ADC? no? NB. I have been following this instruction to unbind unnecessary driver and install dumb-one http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Battery_Questions_and_Answers#Using_compatible_batteries_with_gta02 Dmitry ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[QtMoko] RFC: UI for adding Search to NeronGPS
I'm interested in adding a Search facility to NeronGPS, using http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/, but I'm not sure what would be the best UI, so would appreciate ideas or input on this. I think the starting point has to be a dialog with text entry, where the user types in what they want to search for. In future there could also be voice input and voice recognition, but let's assume text entry for now. Given that, http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ will return a list of possible places, each with coordinates and a description, so the question is what to do with those. - We could show them all as markers on the map. But that raises the question of what to do if some of them are outside the current map. Any automatic shifting or zooming of the map might cause unwanted new downloading, and/or show areas of black for a while. Options could be: - Not shifting or zooming the map at all. The only markers that will be visible straightaway are those within the current bounds. Other markers would become visible as/when the user shifted/zoomed the map so as to cover them. - Shifting and zooming the map as much as is needed to show all the returned markers, and never mind the implications. - Shifting and zooming up to some configurable limits, so as to show as many markers as those limits allow. - Alternatively, the results could instead be shown in text form in the search dialog, with a "Go to" button for each one. In addition it would be nice to have an integration with the POI (Point of Interest) function. - All search results could automatically become POIs, or alternatively a new temporary kind of POI that only lasts until a different search is done. - If the map is on or close enough to a search result, and the user selects to make a POI, the POI name is automatically initialised from the search result description. Any thoughts? Thanks, Neil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: [qtmoko] locale follow up
[SOVLED] !!! qtmoko and the underlying debian have two locale !!! you can check this if you set the locale via ssh and then open QX from the touchscreen and launch xterm, type locale and now if you for example have set the qtmoko language via touchscreen to german you will see the german locale settings and on the underlying debian system you e.g. see the us setting to solve this !!! make sure the qtmoko language is set via the touchscreen to en_US !!! and then ssh in your phone and do the following apt-get install locales localedef -i en_US -c -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 cat /etc/default/locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_ALL= reboot ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [QtMoko] MokoFaen v2.1
yberbrowser does not have the keyboard toggle so one cannot type in urls. br robin You're right, the keyboard toggle appears following this rule, from context.xml: Yberbrowser maybe has different rules for the input methods. For now the only workaround that gets in my mind is to have the keyboard toggle always visible... If you want to apply the workaround, edit /opt/qtmoko/etc/themes/mokofaen/context.xml , go to line 16 and change the lines: with: Regards Joif ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Maybe in future we might connect those numbers to the CellHunter/Openbmap/OpenCellID databases, and integrate both using and reporting to those databases.
