Re: qt-extended-improved unpredictive keyboard
* I found out how to suppress the hints bar, that never had any real use for me Doesn't quiet work for me, the hints bar overlays the key stroke for the top row of keys. Try creating a new sms message and begin a word with one of these letters. Otherwise looks good!

Re: [QtExtended] duplicate SMS messages

I was still getting this problem on a recent build (4.4.3) that I built using the qtopia toolchain. Could this be related to the modem firmware version?

Re: QtExtended call forwarding
I'm sitting here playing with QtExtended right now and see that the call forwarding settings has a phone number filled out already. The phone number is 191742004 with the last two numbers being 98 (broke up the number, so google doesn't index it). Does anyone know what this is about? Just had a look at mine, it is automatically set to the voicemail of my carrier (+61411000212 - Virgin Australia) Cheers, Tim ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Debian touchscreen (pointercal) help
I have debian installed on the freerunner and have installed xorg (along with xfce4 and gdm) and xserver-xorg-input-tslib but cannot get the touchscreen calibrated. I have tried both options from the manual debian wiki but have had no luck. It seems to use only the top left of the screen (about a 1/3rd) . Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Garbled SMS messages with OM2008.8?
I've been running OM2008.8 on my freerunner for a little over a week now. For about a week, SMS's worked fine, but for the last few days the SMSs I receive have been garbled - a mixture of characters like ?Èù¥£ì I only get garbled messages from my service provider. This is when I miss a call and I should get a SMS to say that I have voice mail message please cal 212 but with the qtopia 080808 image I get a similar garbled result.

Re: receiving SMS messages
If the phone is in standby, and I receive a text message, the phone wakes up but does not receive a text message. The person sending the message does, however, receive a delivery report. This occurs in both images as well. This is now fixed in the latest qtopia image 080808 (haven't tried the 2008.8 openmoko image yet). This is looking very promising as a day to day phone!

Re: Freerunner with latest qtopia, poor GSM
I've been running my freerunner with the 08/08/2008 qtopia release. Now I'm using it as a phone I've noticed the GSM reception is poor... or more to the point qtopia seems to spend as much time reporting No network as it does with a signal. I am using the qtopia 080808 release and have no problem with the reception. Did you notice this with the previous qtopia or openmoko release? Or is this a new problem?

Re: Freerunner with latest qtopia, poor GSM
Interestingly, I flashed with the 08/08/2008 qtopia release this morning, from my opkg updated stock image, and also notice my signal is weaker. I am just using the stock image from qtopia, I haven't done any updating. I will do a update and see if I get the same problem. Do you know what packages where updated?

Re: Freerunner with latest qtopia, poor GSM
What I mean is, I had a stock OM build, that I had updated with opkg. Then I went and flashed it with the two files in the qtopia package this morning, that qtopia had just released. I haven't tried to update it at all after flashing with qtopia. But I notice the reception seems weaker, both in terms of how many bars I see, and how much spottier the coverage is in places where it was fine yesterday. Oh ok, did you see this in the previous qtopia image? There is no standard for what each bar represents. There's no industry defined standard for it. So it's quite possible that two different phone OSes will represent the same signal strength with a different number of bars. Is there a way to get the signal strength from the api or directly from the gsm? Then we could see if there are any actual differences.

Re: Freerunner with latest qtopia, poor GSM

In response to my own question, directly talking to the gsm I think we can get the signal strength with AT+CSQ but I have no idea how to do this with the qtopia image as the commands on the wiki are for the openmoko distro Tim ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: receiving SMS messages
Are you able to send OK with the Qtopia image? I can receive but not send. Could be an issue with my provider which is T-Mobile. Haven't tested receiving in suspend vs. awake mode but will try it. I can send txt messages with the Qtopia image with Virgin mobile (Optus network) in Australia, but have the same problem that when the phone is in suspend mode the messages do not appear.

Re: France : Taxes for video and mp3 playing capacity
France is about to taxe smartphone which provide 3 features : - At least 128mo internal memory (neo will have 256) - at least one touch/key dedicated to audio playing (what about a touchscreen ?) - mp3 or video playing Can this be worked around by not shipping the neo with mp3 or video software and make it up to the user to download this later?

Re: interface design suggestions
I really like the mockup by Dani, I don't think the colours/blockish look are important as these can be changed by a theme engine but the use of screen space is excellent. The mockup is far more readable and the extra borders in the current theme are a waste of screen space. I think these concepts should be incorporated into the current OpenMoko release.

I do understand that it is a quick mockup, and that I myself have had no suggestions (nor do I claim to know about usability), but I really like the current look quite a bit more than the proposed. I dislike the white fields in the proposed, and the large number of colours; there is much to like in the current: the circular keys, the rounded edges everywhere, the slight boarders to the various frames and fields, all make for a nicer looking interface (IMHO). At the resolution the phone provides, I don't think that the phone should look like it has a lot less by removing these stylistic details. Again, I am just one person with the desire to help influence this great project, and the overall goal is to make a great phone. I appreciate the work of all in this endever, as I really am only a buystander. The usability team will really know best, and I am hoping it is all themeable anyway. Dani, you've put more thought into this than I, and you seem to know. I just like the current so much, orange and grey looks great. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Since the Neo1973 uses all its system RAM to run Linux, it has to run additional apps from separate Flash cards.
