hi Chris, Yeah ... I always wondered why it was doing that all the time!

About QT Extended. Anyone experiencing the Echo Bug? Is there a resolution to it without turning down the volume?

So if you change the suspend timeout, use the options button on the lower left to add them to your current profile. -- j�...@home ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

Yeah, you can get up to that many hours from QTe, too. Just go to settings -> power management and set a time after "Suspend" at the settings when on battery. Works good here. QTe wakes up on calls or when you press power. It just takes one or two seconds. -- j�...@home ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Re: battery on Qtopia 4.4.2
Salut Francois, I'm also using QtE 4.4.2, and I get something more than 48 hours of battery. I think the trick is enabling suspend - I think it's off by default - if you go into settings, select 'Power Management', and make sure that something reasonble is set for the suspend timeout - I have mine set as 20s to dim, 30s to display off, and 40s to suspend. The big difference with QtE vs. the 2008.X distro's I've used is that the phone unsuspends quickly enough that you can reliably answer incoming calls - when I was using the 2008.X based distros I regularly missed calls... Hope this helps.

Re: battery on Qtopia 4.4.2
I can speak for OM2008.x FSO and SHR. FSO and SHR have basically the same battery life. Without going to suspend you'll have 8+ hours, in suspend you'll get the 48 ours (72 is pushing it, but it could happen). I currently am experiencing issues making and receiving calls reliably with SHR and FSO. OM2008.x has fairly reliable call making and text message capabilities, however the call quality needs improvement. I cannot speak for Debian.

We're like a dysfunctional family with a love/hate relationship to the device. I've never managed to get more than that much battery life out of mine. It's one of the biggest issues affecting usability. Some folks claim to have had better luck, hopefully one of them will answer, but AFAICT you haven't done anything wrong, it just eats power *that* fast. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/battery-on-Qtopia-4.4.2-tp2155202p2156371.html Sent from the Openmoko Support mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
battery on Qtopia 4.4.2
Hi everyone, The lifespan of a battery charge on my FR is no more than one night. Anything one can do about it? I'm a newbie in the Opemoko community - I'm a linux user since a few year but definetely not a computer geek! I'm just a big opensource software user fan - so go easy with the explanations :) Thanks in advance for your help.
