Re: Giving GTA02 with hardware issues
I sent my GTA02 for Ruben today. I'm pretty sure he will make good use of it. He also might be a valuable member in this community.

When plugged through USB, it seems to I suspect your battery cell is dead. You could disassemble the gta02-smartbat and swap the cell by a matching Nokia dumb-battery cell. Or use a nokia battery and drivers for dumb battery (without bq27k chip). cheers jOERG -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Giving GTA02 with hardware issues
Hi Mossroy, i'm Ruben Lubbes from the Netherlands, i am following the project for years, but have never been able to set aside enough money to afford myself the use of a Openmoko. I would like to experiment with it, and would be interested in converting it to GTA04. I am innterested in the mobile linux project since 1999, as i got a iPaq, and converted it to Opie immediately, and provided Dutch and other translations and docs for it. If I am not too late, i would like to offer myself as the new home for the GTA02. If you would like to know more, i'd be willing to tell more about myself, and my projects. Thanks for recycling the phone in such a useful way, even if it will go to someone else :) Greetings, Ruben Dit krabbelde Mossroy op 25-05-13 11:34: > Hi all, > > I'm giving my GTA02 (A7). > I think it might be used to convert to a GTA04, or maybe for some other use. > The phone has several years of daily use (bought in July 2009), but is > still in good shape.
