I'm selling one Freerunner ver. A6 - shipping to Italy and Europe
Hello to all, I'm selling one of my two Neo Freerunner GTA02 Ver.A6, because of limited time to play with. It's fully functional and it has been used as my daily phone for some month. Now i have a N900 and i'll use my second Freerunner only to experiment. The display it's without scratches at all. I've bought from Pulster the device in march 2009, V6 version. No buzz-fix, but i never seen any problem with that here in Italy (my GSM operator is Wind-Infostrada), also from people that i'm calling. I'm selling the FreeRunner with following accessories: - 512 MB micro SD - original battery 1200mAh, in a good state (used as daily phone only form 2-3 month) - original power adapter + plug multi-standard - Stylus pen from Pulster If you are interested i'm selling it for 99 euros + Shipping fees to Italy or Europe (i'll use a standard insured shipping, not expansive). If anyone interested, contact me. Thanks, have a nice day! :-) -- Andrea ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [QTMOKO] Dead UI

No, I didn't install anything, didn't upgrade, update, change any config, nothing. Something just happened. qtmoko starts normally When I touch the touch screen, the screen light comes on, but no menu or icon reacts. AUX POWER work as expected. hexdump -C /dev/input/event1 showed that touch is recognized, so it shouldn't be hardware. Being able to run Debian normally confirms this. Have been rebooting wishing this'd disappear, but no. Ran apt-get dist-upgrade and dpkg-reconfigure -a with no success. Someone suggested that I should recalibrate the screen - how do I start the calibration software from command line? Someone suggested I should try xev. How do I start X from command line? Someone, please help... :/ Exactly same problem here, with a little variation: i can restart Qt with the menu (all it's freeze but the touch works for the upperbutton). Sometimes the UI works, but it disconnet totally from GSM, and i need to restart QT. After 2 or 3 soft restart, it works. It's not a good workaround but for me it's the only method to use my FR with QTmoko (v19 nodebug) as my everyday phone (with some trouble). -- Andrea ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

And IMHO openess *should* be different in this aspect: it *must* be detached from a consumerism centered economy. But these products must be really bug free and working very well.

But currently for me does not wake from suspend on incoming call and getting somehow trashed touchscreen input in X (both xglamo and Xorg with tslib input). I didnt have much time to explore it yet. No problem Radek, and thanks anyway for your super effort :-) I'm not a programmer so i cannot resolve my self these kinds of problem. But i hope someone will do ;-) I can help as beta-tester, or helping on documentation, not more. I think that the community behind QtMoko now it's not so tiny, but we need a method to concentrate better our efforts. IE: on the site it must be some places to easily report bugs, problems or feedback by users, to help testing (and betatesting) fo this (great) distribution. Something like a bug tracker, answer for users, and so on, more over wiki. Maybe we can open it on launchpad ? It's there a stable main developer group behind QtMoko or is only a onemanwork? -- Andrea ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [qtmoko] New significant speedups coming to FreeRunner
* Radek Polak wrote, Il 16/02/2010 15:48: Now i just change a few kernel config options and few line patch (thanks to Thomas White) and the graphics speed is very nice. In QVGA it can probably match iPhone or any Android device. I totally agree Radek's words, and in my experience the GUI in QtMoko 19 with the new kernel, it's fast like any other smartphone. _Really_ _fast_, now. So the myth of slowness of the FR, it's now a legend, because QtMoko now has a GUI with a speed absolutely comparable with any other commercial phone.

Can confirm this with qi as well. qtmoko installed on uSD. Anyone know how can I see the error/provide a log? I can also confirm this, so I am currently running the normal kernel. I have also noticed that this image + kernel frequently shows searching for network I confirm too these problem with Qtmoko-19 (but with the faster kernel). I can't boot with qi directly, i have to use NOR menu. And sometime when i boot it starts qtopia normally, but it seems freezing or not completing the load, and i have to restart qtopia manually 2 o 3 times to have it work properly. And me too i have a lot of problem with the searching network on Gsm registration, very problematic to use Qtmoko as a daily phone. Rather then that: the FR now it's REALLY FAST with the interface! I like this incredible improvement in velocity, it's huge. Now when i press a icon it's superfast to load too. It remains the problem with qi-boot and the GSM registration, that is really problematic.

Yes, but without the copy/paste fuction and a still not so good touch keyboard, also here i've some problem. But using it as a pure GPS device, it's really good.

In my case my FR does not read SD cards, and give the same error messages as above until the kernel simply disables and removes the mmcblk0 device. I seem to remember that at some point between the v.5 and v.6 hardware, a small resistor was put on to some legs of the SIM or uSD card reader connections (you should be able to see one on yours). I have a suspicion that this is what has gone wrong on your FR as well as mine. Unfortunately this is simply a wild guess from my part, I do not have the kit or expertise to test this.

Me too i have especially the low volume problem (i'm with QtMoko). I tried everything via mixer software, but without any success: phone calls are always with tiny volume, in an open space or also in a car, it's really difficult to ear the call.

It will be converted also in a good e-book reader, i presume. It's also a really good idea to make co-marketing with Wikipedia, finally some business that works. I expect a good success especially from students and young people. Please, send us some more technical specification, real photos, etc etc. What's about the LCD?

* Ali wrote, Il 20/09/2009 14:41: I wouldn't mind it gone from the distro I think it sucks. Remember qtmoko is on debian so everything in debian is available to us. apt-get install iceweasel (firefox with free graphics) but that's overkill (and slow) on a phone. Try midori, I think it's a little bloated for the freerunner, but it does the job. Dillo[1] is my favourite but I can't seem to find it in the repos- even the old version based on gtk was really fast. Dillo2 uses fltk2- it's damn fast and fairly pretty. [1] Also has an opk that you may be able to extract and execute, but I haven't had the chance to test it out myself. I totally agree on using other browser, with the power of Debian, we can use pretty everything with Apt, that's why i like a lot QtMoko! :-) However it's not a bad idea to purge out from the QtMoko base installation all the software that sucks like, that said, this QtExtended default browser that, in fact, it's not usable for Web browsing (but also the QtGPSdemo... and other default QtExtended software pretty useless). I think it's not bad to insert as a default browser Midori or, like you said, Dillo, or any other Browser finger friendly, fast, usable, and stable. And as default software pre-installed, i think also it's pretty a must to insert a very good mixer (QalsaMixer) to fine tune calls volume. -- Andrea ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
