[Android] Help needed: adb, WiFi and terminal
Hello fellow Openmokonians, I recently installed Android on my FR, and so far I am very pleased with it's performance. Sadly I am having some problems: 1.: I have trouble connecting my Android to Ubuntu Karmic. This is what I do when I try to connect it: -boot Ubuntu -connect my FR to the computer via USB -I use Qi, so it boots automatically when I connect it with USB I once (the first time) got a Network-Manager notifier when I connected, but since then I've not seen the device anywhere but in lsusb (not in ifconfig -a, Network-Manager or Wicd). Any suggestions as of what I am doing wrong? 2.: WiFi problems! I've always had WiFi problems on every wireless device I've owned, so I'm quite used to it. It says it's connected after I've selected my AP and entered my passkey, but no network traffic whatsoever. Do I need to enable/disable something? 3.: I'd very much like to use the built-in terminal emulator, but I can't submit the command (pressing enter doesn't work). Any obvious tricks I've missed here? Thanks in advance ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Koolu.com server is down.
Koolu.com seems to be down. Are there any other mirrors where I can find current Android images for GTA-02? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Qt Extended download link down
Hi folks, The link on openmoko.org to Qt Extended 4.4.3 (http://dashi-x02.karadog.net/~lihouyu/qtextended/4.4.3/) seems to be down at the moment — do you know of anywhere else I can find it? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[Openmoko] No numbers on the keyboard?
Hi folks, I just received my FreeRunner yesterday, and I have a problem: The keyboard that shows up when I am going to enter my PIN code only has lower-case letters! There is no shift/caps lock either... Is this just a missing basic feature, or have my technology insight failed me? I am still using the Om that came pre-installed (should I flash SHR?). I would also like to know how to open a terminal (do I have to install one from the rep.?)... All help appreciated! -- Save humanity from self-destruction - STOP POPULATION GROWTH! Don't bother sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments. They make me puke.

There is no shift/caps lock either... Is this just a missing basic feature, or have my technology insight failed me? To enter your PIN, I guess you'll only need the numbers... or am I incorrect here? Yes, that is correct, but I didn't know that finger gestures on the keyboard would work. I even figured how to delete characters ;D I am still using the Om that came pre-installed (should I flash SHR?). Since that software is way over 1 year old, I suspect it would be better to flash either SHR or QTMoko (or what is it called now?) to improve battery life (a lot!) and gain stability. I would also like to know how to open a terminal (do I have to install one from the rep.?)... If you install SHR, you'll get one. Not sure about Qt... Yes, I noticed the power drain. I'll flash SHR since it is most used. _ Save humanity from self-destruction -- STOP POPULATION GROWTH! Don't bother sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments. They make me puke.

Re: Problem with dfu-util (flashing)
I used the Windows port of DFU-util (in Windows 7 RC), and it worked without complications. SHR is still booting (after 5 min++) - I thought 2 minutes boot time was an exaggeration :-) Hope this is the configuration stage or something so I don't have to wait this long every time :-/ Thanks for the support though! I'll try building from source once I fix my MBR :-) Dave wrote: I run kubuntu hardy (8.04) and found that I had to build dfu-util from source to get it to run reliably.
