GTA02 Screen dissasembly issues..
Trying to remove my broken LCD from GTA02 i run into the following issue: In the manual of GTA04 in page21 it mentions 4 conducting silver pads only glued to the PCB . Unfortunately i think (see attachment photo) i damaged those pads. Could please someona assest the damage. Can i proceed to connect the LCD replacement or i'll have problems? What's the use of those pads? Also in one corner a part of a black coating has gone.:-) Is that bad? alexandros. (ps: i didnt use the blow dryer :-/) (ps2: althought partly my fault i think the manual needs improvement in the LCD removal section .) attachment: gta02-worn-pads.jpg___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: GTA02 Screen broken..
I ordered a new LCD from goldelico finaly. But i'm wondering if in the spirit of first PC-era specs could be published so there were more alts, eg: a more low-cost low-res display. (to be frank the LCD costs 58€. The vat, and trasport fees pump up the final value to 80€). alexandros. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: GTA02 Screen broken..
maybe just the connector got a bit loose? with help of the disassembling guide you should be able to check. I dont know if you've seen the image i sent. That screen could happen from a connector problem? I mean in the screen the tear is ,as i see it, apparent. If that's possible i'd be happy to try. I'm considering to buy an replacement part but i wouldnt mind if i could get a lower resolution with less money.

GTA02 Screen broken..
After my baby came into the world chaos is visiting my workroom more frequent and entropy's level is critical :-) Trying to move a mouse's cable created a cascade effect to a dozen of other cables behind my tower including the usb cable connected to my beloved GTA02. You can see the result in the attached pictures. The fall was half a meter. The neo hit ground landing on other cable. The screen didnt hit an object's angle or corner. So my non-technical guess , for what its worth ,is that it must happen from the shock of the impact to its case. There is no fractures on the screen's glass . It seems that the fracture that's visible on the screen is on a layer beneath. The touch screen is functional ,even on the part of the screen that's messed up. alexandros attachment: 2013-05-28-212010.jpg___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Also some newbie questions:
trying to compile qtmoko in the PC build (as mentioned in the README) will
i
have a screen like in QVFB ? Or the pc build is sth else that i cant
undestand
in the moment?
I've tried it and in fact, your PC will run QtMoko directly on tty1
(ctrl-alt-f1) and you'll be able to use QtMoko exactly as the same than
on your phone. Although I've not found how to quite the application
after being in it...

MicroSD cards support questions in gta02
Having spend a day and some trying to boot qtmoko or shr trying different combinations (bootloader+ distributions + partition scheme ) from two micro sd card i own, without any success , and since the cards are accesible from linux kernel i'd like to pledge for help in that issue. I admit i havent play more with uboot enviroment and uboot prompt but i've tries the rootdelay option. Some questions: 1)For example why there is need each dist to have its customized bootloader file? Doesnt that imply that there is no general bootloader working like in desktop pcs? 2)Why generally speaking its so difficult to boot from a sdcard? Is the microsd interface closed and thus a libre drivers has holes? Is it a card's fault ? (in what way , shouldnt they comply with a standard? ). Is it glamo hardware thing? Is the glamo mmc driver 's fault ? All the above in different combinations?
