Actually 2 times just today. Over the week it has happened quite a few times. The only pattern that I can see if this issue is more prominent if I manually suspend the phone. (i.e. short-press the power button). A bit of detail on my issue: When I try to resume, (sometimes) the display is shown properly, but the touch screen is still turned-off I guess. I can see everything on the phone, if I get calls, I can see them, but can't answer. Even the hardware keys work fine (the AUX button brings up the Task Manager) but I can't touch anything. -- Regards Shashank As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it - Albert Einstein ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

The first few boots were no problem, today I rebooted my phone again, but was not able to get the GSM to register. Previously the registration happened with one or two QtExtended restarts.

Well i just added one more version. This has only 2 columns and has 2
rows. The first row contains the name, description in the first column
and a screenshot in the second column. Second row contains further
information (homepage etc) and the tested hardware list.
Looking at it might give you a better picture:

Tested basic functionalities. SMS, Calls works fine.Yes can be used as a daily phone. Bluetooth is present. I didn't have another phone with bluetooth atm, so don't know if that would work, but atleast the options show up ;) Some issues though: * On first boot, when i pressed the dialer button on the homescreen, QtMoko crashed and went blank with only a cursor blinking at the top-left corner. I was hoping for it to do a restart of QtMoko, but even after a few minutes it didn't respond so i had to remove the battery. On next boot this didn't occur. Next time maybe i'll get time to catch some logs. * Tango GPS opened fine, (I couldn't test the GPS as i know i'll not get a fix inside the building, i'll test it later in the day) but after closing there is a cursor on the bottom-left corner of the QtMoko, but that is just a aesthetic requirement. Thank you Radek, a great amount of work has gone into making this build. I must say it's been shaping out nicely! Personally Qtmoko is an awesome distribution and that's what i use as daily phone.. with support for TangoGPS, it'll give rise to a whole new level of (healthy) competition to the other distros!

Background amplification and voice blur on phone call
Hi list, I created a new topic cause I think this question is slightly different from the one being discussed in the "Rustling noise on phonecalls" thread. Well I just installed OM2009 (and updated via opkg update && opkg upgrade) and then tested on paroli on a call. Weird thing happened. The background sounds (like of the traffic, keyboard strokes or somebody else far off talking) are highly amplified. But my own voice is highly marred with noise. My voice sounds like it's being mixed by a dj to produce a kind of recursive-echo effect! Then I tried with the latest QtMoko Images. (QtMoko v3 based on FSO from http://dashi-x02.karadog.net/~lihouyu/qtmoko/snapbuild/20090707/ ). It had the same issue too. Then I tried wiki, [1] says: wget http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/raw-attachment/ticket/2121/gsmhandset.state.new -O /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/gsmhandset.state should help. I tried. It didn't.

After the script was complete, and a reboot done, i was with the latest version. Thanks for this release! I tried qmplayer, it played mp3 songs from my computer using the share option. But it refused to play an avi file of a music video on the phone, though it could play it on the computer. How do i debug this and provide you with more information? Another new applications i tried was google contacts sync. I was successfully able to get contacts from my google account. Is there a way to upload the contacts on the phone back to google-contacts?

So if i called somebody, i could talk to them for 1 min or so, and the call would get cut automatically. This happened to me some 3 times before i booted into QtE-I to make the call.

For landscape mode(i.e holding neo sideways) however, the keyboard does not utilize the extra space. What we need is, imho, a keyboard that would increase in size to take up the extra space in this landscape mode. That way we'll be able to type even faster.

[GTA02] Unable to direct sound to speakers
Hi All, This is my first mail on the list. I'd like to say the first 2-3 weeks with my FreeRunner has been an awesome experience!!! So this is my problem. In the first week that I got my FR, i had OM2007.2 (I guess it's the default) and Debian on the SD card. I was able to make/receive calls on debian and was happy. I could also hear the calls from the *tring-tring* sound of the speakers.During this time, I never played any sound files though. Later, I installed FDOM, and debian was still on the SD card. Now I only have OM2008.9 (SD card currently free). At some point, the speakers stopped working. I was not able to hear when I get calls, not able to route the calls to loud-speaker, unable to hear songs on speaker. The head phone works fine though. I can still receive/make calls, but I can only use the vibrate option. FR does not ring. When inserting the headphone jack when a song was playing, I used to hear some sound out of the loud-speaker for a brief movement. (say 100ms) but then it was gone. This happenened a few times and now this has also stopped. I've tried with the alsa-mixer settings. Even when the speaker volume is at 100, I'm not hearing any sound. I'm guessing it must be a hardware issue. Any ideas? -- Regards Shashank As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it - Albert Einstein ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
