Re: Sold out ahh
I thought this might be useful. I created a page on the wiki, so no device will go unused. That would be a shame. http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Classifieds Cheers!

Re: wts Freerunner
I'm in Western Canada (Vancouver) and have a brand new 850 model. I only flashed a couple of distributions onto it. Preferably, I'd sell it to someone in Western Canada/United States and someone who can contribute to the project. Cheers!

Freerunner available in Vancouver
Hi, I'm willing to sell my Freerunner. While it's a great piece of hardware and the software is catching up, it looks like I don't have as much time as I originally thought. Someone else could probably contribute more than I can. The condition is like new. I only opened it for like two days and flashed different distributions to try out. I live in Vancouver, so preferably a transaction locally is better. Send me a private email if interested and we'll talk price. Cheers!

Re: Main page change notification
I dont mind the language on top for this page, but if we can get rid of Main Page at the top, that'd be GREAT. Right now, it's taking up a lot of real estate and I don't think we really need the page name for this page. The changes look good. I like how the intro is split up, so for people who care most about the license stuff, like developers, when they scroll down a bit, they can see it. Cheers!

I think changing from one language to another inside the page is actually a rare task, as bookmarks can be set directly to the language of choice. It also makes the page look less cluttered :) Right but this is the main page which new users see first. They need to be able to select their language easily. I can see having all other pages have it on the bottom or not at all. The main page should have it on the top. Many people don't speak english. Ok. For the benefit of those non-english speakers who find it too difficult to scroll to the bottom of the page once to change languages before bookmarking it, I shall leave it as is. :) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: GPS problems, summary
Great post. Maybe you can put it on the wiki somewhere, so it's visible to more people. Cheers! Justin On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 12:38 PM, Alasal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A summary of everything related to the GPS problem. Does the people of Openmoko know the problem? - Yes. Do they work on the problem? - Yes, they are actively searching for a solution. What is the problem? - The Openmoko Freerunner have a long TTFF with the SD card in the phone. So it takes a long time (10min+) before you get your first GPS data. Wat is TTFF? - This is the time to first fix of the GPS. This is the time the GPS has needed to get the first clue on where you are on planet earth. So you have to do this only once. After you have a FF (first fix), you can get more fixes without any problems with the SD card in the phone. So if we have a first fix, the SD card isn't blocking the GPS anymore? - yes, the SD card isn't blocking the GPS if we have a first fix. (Some people even claim it's more stable) Does they have a solution? - yes. Their is already a highly alpha software workaround. The software just disables the SD card when the GPS tries to get it's first fix They are also examine a hardware solution. Do we have to return our Freerunners to Openmoko? - Probably not, because the software workaround should work too. But we can't read of the SD card when the GPS is on? - Wrong, you will be able to read the SD card when the GPS is on. You will probably not be able to read the SD card when you're starting the GPS (appr. 30 sec), because the GPS will only block the SD card when it's searching it's first fix. After that you will be able to read the SD card again. Is their a better software solution? - Maybe. From reading the mailing list, I have understood that half the Openmoko team is looking into this bug. All this information is only 1 à 2 days old and the bug is also young, so I suspect they can finetune the software workaround and make it only slowdown the SD card or even better. Did Openmoko test the GPS with a SD card in it? - yes Whey didn't they find it while testing the Freerunner? - Because they have to do the tests with a fake GPS signal and with that signal it worked. (In a fab you haven't a decent GPS signal) They already have modified the test, so it correspond the GPS signal better. Summary of the summary: You will be able to use the SD card in the same time of the GPS except for the first appr 30 seconds. (And that's the worst case, because maybe Openmoko can find better hacks/fixes) ps: I have read all the mails about the GPS problem, but I'm still human. If there is a fault or wrong conclusion in this summary, please let the community know. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Community update: The 850 MHz issue
