Re: [Om2009] default route using wifi

 Hi list,

 Trying out beta3 I actually could connect to my wpa2 enabled wifi
 network by just using some buttons and my finger. Using the tiny
 keyboard without a stylus is actually possible! I'm impressed. Checking
 in a terminal, however, shows that the default route is still using
 usb0, which is not connected. Is this reproducable?

If Paroli is using connman to connect... Then they have the same issue
as we in SHR (wifiman.py). We have to make some good connman
configuration to handle routes properly.

Don't waste all your time there, we're expecting the new 2009 version
of the Openmoko distribution to arrive (well, there was a promise to
have something last month already) at some stage.

 I don't think that waiting for the next release is a good idea. I was at
 Sean Moss-Pulz' talk in Bern on April 2.
 In the QA, somebody said that his Freerunner missed incoming calls. Sean
 M-P replied that this would be
 fixed really soon. I asked, When? and Sean said, June.

 The thought of new users struggling with the old docs, which are mostly no
 longer relevant, for the next
 2 months is awful, don't you think? But maybe adding a pointer to Tom Yates'

Re: Entering the PIN for a SIM card

2009-04-08 Thread Johny Tenfinger
Did you try to click on assembled digits? ;

2009/4/8, halbtaxabo...@yahoo.com halbtaxabo...@yahoo.com:
 I loaded the SD chip and the SIM card into my Openmoko as described
 on the Getting Started with your Neo FreeRunner page.
 I inserted the battery, closed the case and plugged it into the
 charger.

 It booted to the GUI (a few icons), then the screen went black after
 a couple of minutes.

 I pressed the power button, and can see text on the screen:

 Please enter the needed PIN.
 SIM Pin:___

 I'm using a prepaid SIM card from Co-op Switzerland. I have
 the PIN. But how do I enter it?
 In the lower half of the screen are lower-case letters. By experimenting,
 I find I can get upper-case letters, or digits or special
 characters, by stroking the screen with the stylus.
 I can touch numbers with the stylus and thus compose a 4-digit
 number - in the lower half of the screen.
 But how do I enter it into the dialog box for the PIN? which
 is in the upper half or the screen?

 A photo showing the screen is attached. There is no obvious way
 to get the assembled 4 digits into the required box.

Backspace is when you slide your finger to the left (to right -

 worked...

 good lord, what usabilty genius created that?
 to begin with, everybody aroudnyou can read your pin and then, you stay
 there and tap the screen in the faint hope it might work somehow?

 and, just out of curiosity, what do you do when you need to correct a

GTA03 looks promising, if only there won't be hardware issues.

released. But i was witting (? i don't know if it is correct word ;) )
about issues with Neos. And that's why i'm happy with it.

Most of you, who are shouting it's a brick! it's a brick! should buy
Android or Symbian, or even Windows Mobile based phone. Not Openmoko.

 There's a difference between getting a system, flashing software, applying

I only flashed my Neo three times (except some testing flashes, like
Android - but it was only to test it, not to use as phone). One with
2007.2, and two times with SHR (because in first i mixed repos and was
too lazy to fix e fails ;)). So without one my fault - only two times.
And with both systems i was happy (only with 2007.2, when i had few
thousands smses in inbox, it was terrible slow)


 Really? So we're right to distrust and dislike OM? Thanks for the
 confirmation. By the way, back in July it wasn't easy to check. the mailing
 list was full of praise and OMG it works! and the wiki was full of
 interesting facts about things that *worked* in the various software
 distributions.

Because it works as expected. You are expecting more than it can do at
the moment.
And OM is doing sometimes stupid decisions. But not dislike them -
only have some distance.


 You have a responsive UI? Perfect sound? a fix for suspend/resume? No
 white/blackscreen faults? No GSM buzz? No problems charging when it's dead?
 No GSM bounce issues? No problems associating to multiple access points in
 one session with wifi? etc

SHR has very responsible UI. I was playing with alsamixer and have
great sound now. No echo on other side. Suspend/resume is working
reliably. I only had WSoD with andy-tracking, but i'm using 2.6.24 now
and i don't have WSoD's and BSoD's. GSM buzz is no louder than on my
Nokia 6230i. Never experienced 'bouinsing Calypso bug, and #666 - so
i didn't upgrade gsm firmware. With wifi - i don't know, i'm using
only one access point at one place. Battery is working about 2 days. I
have GTA02v5 with Date code 21.06.2008

 Well done, congrats, share the software and hardware schematic updates with
 the rest of us please. And feed it back in to a reasonably easy to apply
 image/distribution.

Install shr-unstable, apply FSO patch on echo and play with alsa state
files. Nothing more.

 Besides which, most of the fixes seem to be a trade-off anyway. The first
 solution for echo seemed to be to turn various volumes down, and then you
 have a very quiet phone. The fix for the buzz is in hardware. The fix for
 calypso seemed to be not to use its sleep feature , which is bad for power
 consumption.

It was first echo solution. Next are good ;)
Buzz is hardware, yep. I'm lucky i don't have this problem. The same
with calypso.

 Yes, it was terribly foolish of us to buy into the idea of an open phone
 running Linux that was being sold as ready for use. Terribly foolish.

So buy Motorola U9. It's running Linux and it's ready for use. My
girlfriend has one and she's happy with it ;p

 Sorry, but this just annoys me, I wanted a phone that I could start projects
 on, not a project that might one-day be a phone.

So why have you buyed Neo FreeRunner? Have you tried software in
emulator? I was doing it before i decided to buy it. I can't imagine
that i will buy it without reading a lot and testing software.

  Have you encountered this problem and if so, how did you resolve it?

I'm only opkg upgrading on unstable. quickdev is quickly fixing many
bugs in libframeworkd-phonegui-efl, about which you are talking - now
i don't have problems with smses. Only problem which i can see is non
working service data (USSD) window, but right now other
distributions are not supporting USSD at all ;)

Re: GTA02 is now an expensive brick

2009-01-04 Thread Johny Tenfinger
If you're using GTA02v6 it should start, when it is connected to
computer (not wall charger!) and with pressed AUX button. When you are
using GTA02v5, simply insert Nokia BL-5C compatible battery. My
GTA02v5 had totally discharged many times, but it's still working :P

Use another distro. FSO/SHR work perfectly. You can also try Qt

python-pygame mixer fails

2008-12-21 Thread Johny Tenfinger
Hi!

When I'm trying to get pygame.mixer working on FreeRunner, I'm always
getting this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ./minifof.py, line 130, in module
main()
  File ./minifof.py, line 125, in main
pygame.mixer.init()
pygame.error: No available audio device

Is this pygame problem? All sounds are played correctly.

I'm using SHR unstable with FSO unstable, om-testing and om-unstable repos.

Happy hacking!

For FreeRunner, suitable image is s3c2442. What command are you using
to flash it?

2008-11-23 Thread Johny Tenfinger
   OK, thanks, but use it how? I suppose, this is ant AT command, but I
 use this by dialing application, so where should this command be used?

Just search this maillist. There was some time ago patched version of
some Qtopia file to use with 2008.x. FSO MS4 has this command
built-in. In 2007.2 (which probably you have - looking at your
/etc/version) you have to use libgsmd-tool.

Suspend/resume problems are AFAIK kernel issues, reporting it on Qt

Re: 4.4.2 quick feedback, was: Re: QT Extended version 4.4.2 release is out!

2008-10-31 Thread Johny Tenfinger
 How are non-developers supposed to know that?

Because now FreeRunner is not for non-developers. And people with only
little skill of developing (like me) IMHO should read wiki and
maillist BEFORE they buy FR (and should know about that basics like
suspend is a kernel issue and it may cause problems). For me it's
normal, not only here, with our FreeRunners, but also in other things
(but the most of people doesn't think in that way... :( )

 And, unfortunately, it makes the FR with QT Extended totally useless as a 
 phone

You can change kernel.

Re: Standalone Charger doesn't work?

2008-10-26 Thread Johny Tenfinger
 Remember that battery can permanently die if you discharge it TOO much.

You can always rescue it with another battery (for instance some
Nokia-compatible) - you must only turn on FR with another battery and
when it's running, swap batteries (with charger connected of course)
