But are the accelerometers enabled when FR is in sleep mode ? Because if you have to wake up the FR to enable them then it's faster to read your phone screen :P Xavier. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I really like this idea. If some event happens (such as a received SMS, missed call, etc), use the accelerometers to see if the phone is moved for some number of seconds afterward. If not, then configure them to wake the phone the next time it is moved before going into suspend. When movement wakes it up, notify the user to check for a missed event (turn on display/blink LED/vibrate/whatever).

Received SMS going unnoticed
Hi, I've been using SHR unstable for my everyday phone for a while and i was wondering what solutions people are using to stop sms messages arriving without being noticed. I leave me phone running and on charge next to the PC when i'm at home so the battery is always full when i go out. What's happening is I get a sms and of course the sound plays but i'm not there to hear it. With the auto screen poweroff I don't even notice when I return to the PC, can be a few hours before i tap the phone and notice. I could turn off auto screen poweroff, so when I return the new message is visible on the phone but then the LCD would be running pretty much all day/night which is probably not so good for its lifespan. What would be ideal is for it to keep playing the new message sound every few minutes while the new message popup is being displayed. Does anyone have a cron script or anything to solve this problem. Thanks Ben. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Received SMS going unnoticed
basically it should be possible, to write a rule for oeventsd in
rules.yaml (incoming sms should be an event supported).
if not, you could opimd-cli and do something like
opimd-cli messages query MessageRead 0 | grep Numer of results: | awk
'{print $4}'
which would print the number of unread (which 0 means, imo) messages
(Numer is the correct typo :-), but better check again).
as long as the resulting number != 0, you could trigger a vibration.
DISPLAY=:0 qdbus --system org.freesmartphone.odeviced
/org/freesmartphone/Device/LED/neo1973_vibrator
org.freesmartphone.Device.LED.SetBlinking 60 3000
i still don't know, how to call directly via bash/dbus call, which would
be a tad less resource consuming.
DISPLAY=:0 qdbus --system org.freesmartphone.opimd
/org/freesmartphone/PIM/Messages/Queries
org.freesmartphone.PIM.MessageQuery.GetResultCount
produces an error:
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

That looks like a good place to start, i'll have a go at it.
