Re: [QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2
Well, I've been running QtE for a bit over a week now, and I wanted to give kudos to Lorn and the QT team for making the FR something close to a usable phone... It's not perfect yet- I'm still using the original images, so I don't have bluetooth working, and there are a few other gaps, but at least I haven't missed any calls due to slow responsiveness. I've been rebooting the phone every day or two, and perhaps that's why I haven't yet seen the strange instablities I was seeing earlier with FDOM and QtE 4.4.1 - but the basic phone functionality has been pretty reliable - I used the phone on a short business trip, and aside from having to reboot to get out of 'airplane' mode, it worked well. QtE also has *way* better battery life than anything else I've tried - I can go 36 hours or more without having to plug in the phone. For the first time, I'm starting to feel like I can use my FR as a phone. Of course, I haven't had time to install any interesting software on the phone, get wifi or gprs working, get the gps working, or anything like that, so things may get more interesting at that point - but I've gone more than a week without feeling the need to put my Sim back in my old cell phone.

Re: [QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2
Yup - I charged overnight the night before last, unplugged about 8am yesterday, and at about 3pm today apm is reporting the battery at 50%. The only thing I tweaked was to set the phone to suspend after 40s. I was originally afraid this would break receiving messages and sms's, but it seems to have caused no issues...

In the power management I've set the brightness to about half, dim after 10 seconds, display off after 20 seconds and suspend after 30 seconds. Not had issues with it coming out of suspend (yet).

According to Lorn Potter, it does. And as you wrote earlier in this thread,

Yup, just seen that in the QT Extended sources in:
devices/neo/src/plugins/phonevendors/neo/vendor_neo.cpp
Looking at the code in that file I'm wondering if a better place to put the
command to set the echo suppression is in NeoSimInfo::requestIdentity()
as that seems to be called occasionally to get the SIM info.
Alternatively it could go into the NeoCallProvider::cpiNotification() code
after it calls hangupRemote() to set it ready for the next call and make sure
it gets set in NeoModemService::initialize() ready for the first use.
The reason I say that is because the original patch put this into the QTE
libraries rather than in the Neo specific code.
I'm curious about the alsa-settings that were posted by Kishore, what do
they exactly fix? As I understand it would fix incoming calls being set to
speaker (instead of handset), right?
Apparently so, as well as reducing the maximum volume on the handset.
Thing is looking at the diff of the original and fixed versions I can't see how
it fixes it to use the handset rather than the speakerphone!

I believe there are (a lot!) more people interested in this, or at least I think the sound bugs (mainly echo issue) are one of the most annoying bugs in the 4.4.2 release (actually in any release in any distro). So please share your solution! I will be very thankful :) Cheers, Tha_Man -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/-QT-Extended--Observersation-on-QtE-4.4.2-tp1456360p1460622.html Sent from the Openmoko Community mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2
I've been trying out QT Extended 4.4.2 for a few days now, and I thought I'd share my observations so far: - Stability seems better than I originally thought - After my one experience seeing it not wake up from suspend on a call, I haven't noticed any other issues - I've received a fair number of calls and sms's, and the phone has always woken up. - The biggest issue for me atm is that I don't get an audible ring tone for either calls or sms messages - This is a regression since QtE 4.4.1 - any suggestions on how to resolve it would be very welcome. - I've missed one un-expected phone call because by the time I noticed the vibration and got the phone out of my pocket, all I saw was the dreaded 'view missed calls?'. However, I think this is more related to the lack of an audible ring, rather than the problem I saw in OM2008.8 where by the time the phone woke up from suspend the call had gone to voice mail. I was able to sucessfully answer an unexpected call this morning, which I don't think *ever* happened with OM2008.8 - Battery life is *much* improved over OM2008.8 - I went more than 24 hours without recharging and still had two bars of battery left. There are a few minor issues I've noticed: - the lack of an icon for the terminal in the apps list is annoying. Does QT Extended provide a 'run' capability, which would allow a user to directly enter an application to run? - 4.4.1 provided 3 different appearance themes - but 4.4.2 only provides 1, and unfortunately it's not the one I preferred. - speakerphone mode didn't work - I think this is also a regression from 4.4.1. Even with the various annoyances and regressions, QT Extended is the closest I've seen so far to making my OM usable as a daily phone. I haven't seen the behaviour I saw once with OM2008.8 and once with 4.4.1 where the phone gets into a strange state where it can no longer make or recieve calls - we'll see if I bump into that one eventually or not...

RE: [QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2
Hello Warren, I also have the problem with the missing ring-tones. Just choose one you copied to the file-system. It seems as if the builtin tones are just not found/included. I haven't quite understood one point - does your phone wake up from suspend when you get a call? For some people (sounds like everybody) the resume is working - but not for me. With speakerphone mode didn't work - do you mean the acoustic feedback? I found an AT-command which has to be sent at the beginning of each call. I compiled a library including this command and the one that fixes the echo bug and now I don't have any sound problems during calls. Since I don't want to switch phones all the time, I am using the Freerunner with Qtextended 4.4.2 in daily use. I'm still looking how to fix some annoying stuff, but am already very happy with the system.

Re: [QT Extended] Observersation on QtE 4.4.2
Hi Roland, Thanks for the tip - I've copied a few .wav files onto my FR, and now I do get ring tones! That's very useful. For suspend - yes, I configured my phone to go into suspend mode when on battery, and it does wake up properly when I get a call or an sms. for speakerphone - I mean that if I turn on the speakerphone option while on a call, it doesn't change anything - the sound still comes through the earpiece, not through the speakers.
