 Well, Xavier, I gave up on my Portuguese accentuated characters a while ago.
 Since I only use the keyboard's dictionary for SMS messages, it's ok

 accents...)  ;)
 It would be good to have someday, but I won't bother opening a ticket  
 when there is much bigger fish to fry first.

You can type accented characters if you install a terminal keyboard (no 
prediction) that has accents. I use a keyboard with dead keys so
I can type lots of accented characters without needing hundreds of keys.

This did not work in SMS before, because of some UI problem. It did work 
on the linux command line though. I haven't tested the 16.april SHR yet, 
perhaps the accents works in sms there.

Are you all kidding? It was told numerous times that accelerometer
kernel api was changed (the previous version had enough known
problems) and userspace apps should be updated.

It was announced about a month before the change and more than two
months before it finally went to SHR testing. Come on.

 Not only that, but they also got rid of a few nasty bugs: the GPRS link 
 (now included out-of-the-box) no longer stalls, the USB networking with 
 Windows boxes is restored, and the messages and dialer apps no 
 longer crash randomly. And Raster's keyboard finally works the way it 
 should (fast and clean). Very nice indeed.
 Kudos to everyone, not just the SHR team for a great integration effort, 
 but also to the kernel and application teams.

Quote all :D

I think we could create a thanks thread to give moral effort and
appreciation to SHR team ad collaborative users :D

Thanks again guys ;)

You can type accents. You just can't use the dictionnary with it as it
will be slow as hell. I've been using french keyboard  accents
without any problem  :-)

[SHR] 4-16 shr-testing is pretty good!

2009-04-20 Thread bburdette
I don't usually see an announcement on the community list when a new 
SHR-testing is available, so here's my own.  The SHR team deserves some 
kudos for a great job.

Just reflashed my OM with the new shr-testing (4-16 version)

1 - GUI is much more responsive!
2 - Settings are restructured, better I think. See #1.  A lot of work
has gone into the settings changes it seems.  I like the profile editor.
3 - new battery power indicator is cool.
4 - wifi works again for me with mofi (at home, with WPA).

Its a worthy upgrade.  SHR-testing is very usable now, just a few things
would really push it over the edge for me:

- mofi can't connect me to any open wifi networks.
- no volume control for earpiece volume.
- no datetime for SMS messages.

 From what I understand echo cancellation is in this version of SHR, so
increasing earpiece volume should be echo free (using config files), I
haven't tried that yet though.

I'll third that, love the new UI and the settings, the phone is extremely
responsive now that Enlightenment is not the resource hog it use to be.  The
biggest downside I have found is that no time and date in SMS, and the
accelerometer doesn't seem to work my test was with
http://www.opkg.org/package_35.html.
