Dual boot strange problem
I have installed QTExtended 4.4.2 on NAND flash and SHR on the SD and i'm experiencing strange boot problems. If i start qtext everything is fine and the system boots normally. Same thing if after that i switch to SHR. The problem comes up when i reboot from SHR and choose again to start SHR from the SD...the system doesn't start, still loading kernel... To start again SHR i have to boot QTExt, shutdown and start SHR!! Then, SHR seems to start just after QTExt reboot, i think due to the boot loader or something else.

Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state

You could always take a copy of the file before and after, and diff them to check your changes have been saved.

Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state
Thanks very much for your explaination.. very useful. The last curiosity...is there a place to find a schema of what I change if i change alsamixer values? i mean, what is the value to change in order to increase the caller's voice? - Original Message - From: Al Johnson To: community@lists.openmoko.org Subject: Re: [QTExtended] cannot store alsa state Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 13:12:01 + I'm not certain on QTExtended, but /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/ is the usual location on most of the distros. You can use any filename you like, but the applications will only use the filenames they expect. I don't know if these are configurable or hardcoded in QTExtended. The names should be fairly self-explanatory when you see them in the directory. The phone will probably spend most of its time using stereoout.state so that the ringtone or music playback happens through the speaker. When you pick up a call the dialler will switch it to gsmhandset.state, and back to stereoout.state when you hang up. It may use headset.state and gsmheadset.state if the wired headset is plugged in, or gsmstereoout if the speakerphone setting is used.

Re: [Android] Converting a brick into a phone
I'm completly agree with Rui. The fact is that today, after several months, we have a phone that is not (yet) fully working. As my experience i tried all the distributions and the better one (in my very personal opinion) is the SHR that (unfortunately) doesn't include a phone calls manager, an sms manager (a decent one), a profile configurator (ring tone, and other stuffs) and a lot of other things..they are following the right way, but they need time and in the meanwhile our phones are fully of dust!! There is the necessity to focus our effort in the development of a distribution that could be usable (i.e. android) in order to have (finally) a fully working daily phone!! This is the priority. I don't have expercience with low level programming, but i know java as well and if i could i'd like to help to achieve this goal as soon as possible. Giorgio - Original Message - From: Rui Castro To: List for Openmoko community discussion Subject: [Android] Converting a brick into a phone Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 13:58:43 + Hi, Like many people in this community I have my Neo resting comfortably in my desk because there isn't a stable OS with the basic phone funcionalities available at the moment (I already tried all the distributions available). Some distributions provide some of the basic stuff, but they're not reliable in many ways. Today I read a message from Wolfgang Spraul in the thread about the end of the Optimization Team that got me worried The way things are going right now, we will probably have this release mid-next year.. Well, I think this is very bad. Electronic equipment, like phones/computers, become outdated in a very short period of time (GTA03 is already being created). By the mid-next year Neo will be pretty much an old phone and nobody really used it, yet. I think Android is the best candidate to turn the Neo into a daily usable phone right away. It has all the basic (and not so basic) applications, it has a good usability, good looks and the number of users/applications will grow very rapidly in the next months, I think. The current state of the Android port for Neo is already very encoraging and with a little effort from the community (and Openmoko people) Android could be fully functional in the Freerunner in a couple of weeks. Sean McNeil has been doing a great work, but as I see it, he is basically the only one working on the low level problems. My personal experience is more at the application level (Java), but with a little guidance I'm willing to help in any way. What I would like to see is some sort of list of things to do and how could the people from the community help doing them. I don't have much experience with open-souce projects, maybe I'm the only one that doesn't know how to help.
