Re: [2008.12] Yet more on the wrench, sorry

 So I've been frustrated over the last few months just trying to get a working 
 terminal keyboard under 2008.12.  I see the distro as borderline useless 
 without this, and as a side point I'm completely baffled by the choice of 
 making the wrench so difficult to get working when it worked fine in 2008.9.  
 
 So right now I have a working qwerty button and a wrench icon that opens but 
 none of the sub-menus contain anything.  I believe all I need to do now is 
 get the keyboard selector menu within the wrench to let me select the default 
 keyboard instead of None, and then I set QT to not export its keyboard and I 
 should be good.  
 
 My problem though is I can't seem to figure out where the hell the menu 
 information for the wrench tool is located.  I have been looking in the e.cfg 
 and related files and the freerunner.edc file within the asu theme, and the 
 files within the illume theme, but I see no mention of the keyboard menu.  
 Also the preconfigured binaries on the enlightenment.cfg wiki page just bring 
 me to a blank white screen, and when I try to use eet to view the source of 
 the e.cfg file included it just says it cannot be opened for reading, so I'm 
 thinking the files are just corrupt.  
 
 Can anyone give me a pointer on where the wrench menu info is even stored?

Are you sure your installation went ok? I didn't have that with
2008.12...

[SHR-testint] On Yaouh! 0.5 and 0.4

2009-03-04 Thread Francesco de Virgilio
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi list,
does anyone know where can I find the opk/ipk for Yaouh! 0.3? I've tried
0.4 on my fresh SHR-testing but, when downloading during the night, it
crashed (I don't know why, I'm trying again now to report the error from
shell).
Yaouh 0.5 simply doesn't work showing an error related to filesystem
(but this has been discussed in another topic).
So, for my SHR-testing the latest version avaiable for use has been 0.3.
 Does anyone know where can I get it?

Thanks

Your is a really great work, Carlo :) But, why remove the progress bar?
Could not make it optional, configurable from a simple sub-menu (Show

I think that space indicator is a great feature, I would see it avaiable

wifi has been fine for me, since I started using the 2.6.28 kernels

Well, wpa doesn't work at all, but wep based wifi is fine. The 
connection stays up for days, and heavy use don't stop it either.

Make sure you have a kernel that matches the SHR image. Flashing the

 As for the question which one of the files on this server

These two are actually the same. With time there may be several kernels

uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin is always a copy of the latest among them, so 
that people who don't follow version numbers and kernel development 
simply can grab the latest kernel, whatever it might be.

Hi,

i am planning to do this on two units possibly (80%) this friday, i have
one unit with and other without the buzz issue(*), both will undertake
the fix. 

* the units were not used on same operator and in the same locations so
  i will try them first under the same conditions side by side to see if
  i can make my other unit buzz even if it didn't before.

If this can be an opportunity for you to have me to test anything,
please let me know.

GSM Buzz fix also applicable to GTA01?

2009-03-04 Thread Tilman Baumann
I have the feeling my GTA01 would also need the buzz fix.
Especially in high antenna power situations I have quite substantial 
buzzing.
That might be new, since I have never seen this before, but I only 
lately started to use my GTA01 as my main phone, I was more of a land 
line type before.

So my question is basically if the GTA02 buzz fix works for me and is it 
reasonable to think that I need it?
Maybe it can really be fixed with a better alsa state file.

GTA02 and GTA01 seem to differ quite substantially in regard to board 
layout, but I guess the audio schematic does not so much.

 Regards,

 Yes, hardware fixes (rework) made by resellers would be great.

 By fixes, I mean :

 * GPS - SDIO fix (add a capacitor if I remember correctly)
 There's a sw-fix for that, which mostly just works
 
 * Add a GSM IR resistor for deep sleep 
 Huh?
 
 * Change the led transistor power hungry stuff
 Guys, this has been fixed for *ALL* FR ever sold!!!
 
 * fix the GSM buzz
 ok, agree here.
 

If I ship the phone somewhere to have a technician fix the buzz, I 
definitely want the small capacitors on headset output issue fixed too.

The capacitor, combined with the resistance of earphones, form a 
high-pass filter.

The cutoff frequency is 1/(2*pi*R*C), where R is headphone resistance 
and C is the size of the capacitor. The capacitor in the FR has been 
reported as 1 microfarad. My headset is about 40 ohm, which gives a 
cutoff frequency of about 4kHz.

At 4kHz the sound is halved, and drops by 6db per octave below that. 
Above, the sound is almost normal. Unfortunately, most of the sound we 
hear is below 4kHz.

A headset usually works down to about 20HZ. If I want the cutoff 
frequency there, a 200 microfarad capacitor is needed.

Is there a plan for such a fix as well?

There are at least two ways:

1. Select a proper keyboard in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

the file shoukld have a section like this for a Norwegian keyboard. For 
another language, replace no with whatever you need.

Section InputDevice
 Identifier Generic Keyboard
 Driver kbd
 Option CoreKeyboard
 Option XkbRules xorg
 Option XkbModel pc105
 Option XkbLayout no
EndSection

However, the FR ships without a xorg.conf file. So some experimentation 
is needed to see if it honors the file, and if you need to install extra 
keyboard files that not necessarily comes with the device.

2. Remap the keyboard using xmodmap
The FR ships with xmodmap, so you can write a script that uses several 
xmodmap commands, one per key that differ from english layout. Then 
arrange so the script is executed whenever X starts on your freerunner.

 I know no such way. This part is currently missing in SHR, so maybe it

Well I went ahead and gave it a try, if I don't like it I can easily flash
something else on it, but it seems that once you have SHR running contacts
are able to be added by hand but I don't know if they are saved to the SIM

  As for the question which one of the files on this server

  needed there seems to be two different ones.

 These two are actually the same. With time there may be several kernels
 in that directory, with different versions.
 uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin is always a copy of the latest among them, so
 that people who don't follow version numbers and kernel development
 simply can grab the latest kernel, whatever it might be.

 I figured something like that so I went ahead and grabbed the
uImage-om-gta02-latest.bin and used that.

 The AUX brings up the keyboard, so that's good.

the AUX is no kernel business above making it working at all.

 When the screen goes dim, a tap of the screen brings the backlight back  
 up,
 but it won't register the taps on the icons or the keyboard, or the lock
 screen.
 The Xorg log shows:

sounds like you do use xserver-xorg-input-tslib, check your xorg.conf,

 and also run xmodmad -pke  keys-on-neo.txt on my neo.
 Then I put some info from keys-on-pc.txt to keys-on-neo.txt and create a
 modified version of keys-on-neo.txt
 So when I plug the external keyboard I run xmodmad keys-on-neo-modified.txt.
 If I put keys-on-pc.txt directly on Neo I have problems with some keys (

Re: [SHR-ustable] gprs is also unstable

2009-03-04 Thread Al Johnson
If you suffer from #1024 and haven't disabled deep sleep you will probably 
drop the connection on every reregistration. It may cause longer lasting 
problems with some networks too - after reregistration I couldn't get another 
connection for some time with O2 (UK) but didn't have problems with T-Mobile 
(UK). This is anecdotal rather than definitive as #1024 is intermittent, so I 
couldn't check the problem was repeatable.

There was a problem reported with ppp being unable to resume due to the 
dynamic nature of the multiplexed port too, but that may have been fixed by 
now.

On Tuesday 03 March 2009, Leonti Bielski wrote:
 Yes, I do :(

 I think this is because not in every place gprs is available all the time.
 When connection is lost it does not recover.
 I think it is more of FSo problem than SHR.

Freerunner GSM Buzz fix, warranty and hopes...

2009-03-04 Thread MarcO'Chapeau
Hello lists, hello Openmoko and hello dear reseller

It is not my first time asking this both on the lists and to Trisoft. It
won't be the last I fear...

Do we have any hope for a mass fix for the GSM Buzz issue or will we have
to buy a
GTA03 (and get new hardware issues) ?

I am more and more thinking that warranty at Openmoko is a do-it-yourself
concept... While I am not a lawyer I would think a do-it-yourself warranty
is no
warranty, and we are meant to have one... This is not just ranting.
Legally, I would say Openmoko would be troubled if
some consumer association started asking questions.

Same goes for Trisoft, which remain unusually silent when I ask this kind
of question without being public about it.

Now that everybody is in CC, let's get some answers.

To me and probably many other users the critical question is not whether
hardware issues get fixed fast or not. The question is a purely logistical
one. Will the devices that have been sold so far be fixed one day ?

I found emacs(non-x11 version) in FSO's unstable repository
3)find them in my repositories(split in 2 because of a data-loss) but I
don't like this idea because:
*my connection is slow in upload

 Which distro are you using? Abiword is one of the things I usually build 
 myself, so I might have ipkgs available.
On the freerunner I use a SHR-unstable distribution(now with a patched
kenrel from the image that was for flashing the gsm firmware)
On openembedded I ust the openmoko distribution.
And I built abiword myself(with the help of openembedded)...then had
data-loss so I've lost the recipes but I can retry to build it if you
want...If I remember well abiword itself compiled fine...but there was
an easy problem in one of its dependencies...didn't commit the fix(boost
related)
...Ah yes I remember...little include problem...but I don't remember in
which package(maybe boost-asio)...may be boost related
Anyway you could try and report your success or failure.

The legality of DOA (Dead On Arrival) warranty depends on country of sale.
In USA it's totally legal.
In Poland 1 year minimum warranty has to be added. Don't know about
other EU countries.

All of the issues were described on the official webpage, so it's like
buying used phone and than complaining about scratches.
So basically all those flaws (buzz, gps, #1024 bug) were part of the
hardware you bought and warranty should not cover them. All other
flaws like screen stops working, some connectors not working -
anything that was not described and occured during normal usage of the
phone - should be covered by warranty if you have one.

I'm not a lawyer but it seems logical to me.

Re: [All] To build a better music player

2009-03-04 Thread Stefan Monnier
 FYI, there is a new version of pythm available on opkg.org
 I only miss one little thing
 When you add an entire directory to playlist, tracks are alphabetically 
 ordered, but, if exists, they should be ordered by track # (from ID3 or ogg 
 tags).

This turns out to be a tricky problem.

 I have a lot of disks without track number on track name, only identified by 
 track# on id3/ogg

And other people have directories with files that aren't part of
a single album, so the track numbers are not related.

Also, there are multi-CD albums, where you may have a single directory
with all the songs for all the CDs in the album, so you'd then need to
sort by disknumber+tracknumber.

The current solution is the easiest and also the most flexible: no
matter how you organize your directories, it should be pretty easy for
you to fix your file names such that they get sorted in the order
you like.

Pythm reads all tag data anyway. It is slow, but not overly so. That
is the trade-off between having a player that uses pre-built playlists
and one that builds them on the fly. Personally I go for the latter.

As I mentioned before, I am planning to add some sort of session
management. It might be too IO intensive to cache all the tag data (as
opposed to simply remembering file name), but it is a possibility.

As for song ordering, I believe that some combination of song file
name and id3 data will be ideal. I am sure I can come up with
something reasonable. Even if there is no general solution, sorting
will be cheap compared with reading tags so we can have a sort
function in the program that can cycle through some different sorts.

  Yes, hardware fixes (rework) made by resellers would be great.

  There's a sw-fix for that, which mostly just works
 
  * Add a GSM IR resistor for deep sleep
  Huh?
 
  * Change the led transistor power hungry stuff
  Guys, this has been fixed for *ALL* FR ever sold!!!
 
  * fix the GSM buzz
  ok, agree here.
 

 If I ship the phone somewhere to have a technician fix the buzz, I
 definitely want the small capacitors on headset output issue fixed too.

 The capacitor, combined with the resistance of earphones, form a
 high-pass filter.

 The cutoff frequency is 1/(2*pi*R*C), where R is headphone resistance
 and C is the size of the capacitor. The capacitor in the FR has been
 reported as 1 microfarad. My headset is about 40 ohm, which gives a
 cutoff frequency of about 4kHz.

 At 4kHz the sound is halved, and drops by 6db per octave below that.
 Above, the sound is almost normal. Unfortunately, most of the sound we
 hear is below 4kHz.

 A headset usually works down to about 20HZ. If I want the cutoff
 frequency there, a 200 microfarad capacitor is needed.

 Is there a plan for such a fix as well?

 I think it's a problem of horsepower.

I don't.

 If you can, as modern players do, read  all id3 info of all tracks,
 and process it on a relational database, you can  perfectly sort all
 your songs by author/album/year/genre/what you want ;)

Actually, if you only use ID3 info, it's very difficult to do a good job
of sorting files: it's basically impossible to reliably figure out which
songs are part of the same album and which aren't.  You can use
heuristics which will work OK in many cases, but sooner or later you'll
bump into some songs whose album tag says (say) Anthology and which
are really divided into 4 different albums, some of which are well
behaved (same artist and year for all their songs), and the others are
compilations where every song has a different year/genre/artist.
And then you add classical music into the mix and it gets even more fun.

 But, if doing so is a slow process on my 2.4 GHz desktop, I cannot
 imagine how slow would be on the freerunner.

My measly WL-700gE (266MHz MIPS CPU + 64MB RAM) does it just fine for my
music collection (7000 songs).

Whoever has read my earlier messages knows that this is using MPD ;-).

So at least in the case where the backend is MPD, pythm does have all
the necessary tag info at hand, but sorting is still a nightmare, so
sorting by file name really turns out to be a very good solution.

Re: [All] To build a better music player

2009-03-04 Thread Yaroslav Halchenko

 As I mentioned before, I am planning to add some sort of session
 management. It might be too IO intensive to cache all the tag data (as
 opposed to simply remembering file name), but it is a possibility.
actually I think that storing them along with filenames in those
'sessions' would speed this up since separate files would not need to be
processed for id3 extraction upon loading of the session file.  id3 tags
within a loaded session might be updated upon user request or whenever a
corresponding file is played/queued/whatever ;)

Possible implementation for sorting on ID3:

contents of .pythmrc:

ID3Sort={%artist - }{%year - }{%album - }{%discnumber}{%tracknumber
}{%title}{ (%length)}{ %genre}{ %rating}

or also possible

ID3Sort={%a - }{%y - }{%b - }{%d}{%n}{%t}{ (%l)}{ %g}{ %r}

The ID3 tag with extra surrounding characters in between the {} will not
be displayed when the value is not set (Null of empty string). This
entire ID3Sort definition will be read on startup of pythm and will be
used for sorting tracks.

The tags used in the definition also dictate the order and contents of
the columns in the overview. In this case begin:

Artist, Year, Album, DiscNmbr, TrackNmbr, Title, Length, Genre, Rating

Possibly a second definition in .pythmrc can be used for custom column
order. e.g.:

ID3OverviewColumns=%a,%y,%b,%d%n,%t,%l,%g,%r
or also possible
ID3OverviewColumns=%artist,%year,%album,%discnumber%tracknumber,%title,%length,%genre,%rating

In this example disc number and track number are combined in the same
column and will simply be concatenated. The header will be emtpy of on
detection of this special case be simply 'Number' of '#'

Also to customist this, a third definition can be specified. e.g.:

ID3OverviewHeaders=Artiest,Jaar,Album,#,Titel,mm:ss,Genre,Rating

And at the same time this third definition allows for localisation.

So the use of the following optional definitions in .pythmrc:
  ID3Sort
  ID3OverviewColumns
  ID3OverviewHeaders
which are customised by the user will allow for ID3 sorting and
presentation catering everyone's wildest ID3 needs.

More people interested in implementing this?

 Red AUX button is still power hungry - it is eating 50mA.

Your mentioned 50mA for the AUX LED is ridiculous. It would burn out
with this high current. Normal LEDs only use ~20mA and low current LEDs
~2mA. 50mA would be for a higher power led which isn't build into the
freerunner.
And when you are on battery the AUX led is off by default and even if it
blinks (like i modified my led behaviour) it isn't really much it uses.

Johnny Tenfinger is right despite it sounds strange.  On some or all A5s
there is no base current limit resistor on the bipolar transistor used
to light the AUX LED.

This 50mA fault current then flows not through the LED (which has a
reasonable series current limit resistor), but through the GPIO IO cell
and the driver transistor base.

AW: AW: New accelerometer application, that draws the current perpendicular line and angle

2009-03-04 Thread hab keen oh ne
Im sorry I havent tested, what version of SDL is actually necessary, I just 
used the latest one provided by SHR. Just execute 
opkg install libsdl-1.2-0 libsdl-ttf
opkg install http://www.opkg.org/packages/perpendicular_0.1_armv4t.ipk 
-force-depends
in case your repo doesnt contain a current version. Should work with older 
ones, too, I guess.
BTW: I would be glad if anyone came up with an idea for an icon(or even with an 
icon), as Im not the expert in graphics and regularly fail in creating nice 
stuff^^, because I will soon update to a version needing less resources(at the 
moment, there is no idle time during the execution, it was just planned as a 
little test app) and then it would be great to offer the ipk with a proper icon 
for a .desktop file.

 An algorithm that uses both ID3 tags and filenames (mostly just

Since many people use ID3 differently and place importance on the tags
in different ways, this needs to be configurable. Please see my post
with the comment that the filename (path without intelligent breaking
down into artist, album etc.) should be used a fall back when no ID3
tags are available.

To encourage the use of proper ID3 tags, I would not want to encourage
the interpretation of the path naming schemes but propose that
customisable way (see other post) of placing highest importance on the
ID3 info.

No, I don't break them for sorting to work, Simply I correct them so I avoid 
ambiguities.

For antologies (or double/triple albums)
* Put the same disk name,year and artist name labels in every track, 
* Set track number and track name labels for every track
* Set disk number label for diferenciating tracks from a disk from tracks 
from another

For compilations,
* Put the same disk name and year in every track
* Set artist name, track number and track name for every track
* Set disk number if needed

That way, my labels are *completely correct*, and every well behaved player 
can order my tracks by album...

 I name them DISK-TRACK TITLE and it works great ;-)

Yes, but I have not them named that way ;)

  sorting by file name really turns out to be a very good solution.

No, because I already have all my music with correct id3 tags, but not with

songs :)

 Is it possible to eliminate it at all?

 My brother has N95 with Agps and he does not have to provide his

it's probably using cell towers to guess at his location

Right. I have a N95 too, and to have AGPS, I had to configure an AGPS 
server from my phone operator (SFR). I think they give the coordinate of 
the cell I'm associated to (easy for them to fetch this information).

I'll take a look to see if this AGPS server can be used on my FR too.

 Johnny Tenfinger is right despite it sounds strange.  On some or all A5s
 there is no base current limit resistor on the bipolar transistor used
 to light the AUX LED.
 
 This 50mA fault current then flows not through the LED (which has a
 reasonable series current limit resistor), but through the GPIO IO cell
 and the driver transistor base.

If this is the problem than it really is a bad design flaw...
Maybe i should test the AUX LED on my gta02v5 how much current it uses
when it is on.

Re: [All] To build a better music player

2009-03-04 Thread Stefan Monnier
 Except that those ID3 tags have a clear meaning, and fixing them to
 get the sorting to work may imply breaking them in the sense that the
 info they carry is not quite correct any more.
 Tho, I guess it depends on the details: in which way did you change the
 ID3 info to solve such problems?

 No, I don't break them for sorting to work, Simply I correct them so I avoid 
 ambiguities.

 For antologies (or double/triple albums)
 * Put the same disk name,year and artist name labels in every track, 
 * Set track number and track name labels for every track
 * Set disk number label for diferenciating tracks from a disk from tracks 
 from another

 For compilations,
 * Put the same disk name and year in every track
 * Set artist name, track number and track name for every track
 * Set disk number if needed

 That way, my labels are *completely correct*, and every well behaved player 
 can order my tracks by album...

Yes, those settings are correct, but they still won't work right if you
have several compilation albums of the same year with the same title.

It is.  Sadly it's also true.

 And when you are on battery the AUX led is off by default and even if it
 blinks (like i modified my led behaviour) it isn't really much it uses.

Indeed, it's not lit very often... I'll let you guess why that is.

Ouch. I just tested mine, and the AUX LED really uses that much (about
50mA). Does a SOP exist to fix this?

Re: [SHR-Unstable] Bluetooth won't connect

2009-03-04 Thread Carl Lobo
Hi,
Are you using bluez3 or bluez4. Remoko doesn't work with bluez4.
bluetoothd is the daemon for bluez4 and hidd/hcid etc. for bluez3.

Well, I have this problem too - and I really haven't had the time to pipe up
on the fso or this list. Do the following :-

modprobe snd_soc_neo1973_gta02_wm8753
modprobe snd-pcm-oss
alsactl -f /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/stereoout.state restore

 You'll get the sound card back. I keep these lines in a sh script - and use
it everytime I reboot. HTH.

Feedback on FSO 5.1

2009-03-04 Thread c_c

Hi,
  I've been using FSO 5.1 for some time now and here is some (late - I know)
feedback. I'm using 5.1 with Qi and the standard kernel.
1.  The snd_soc_neo1973_gta02_wm8753, modprobe snd-pcm-oss modules do not
get loaded automatically on startup.
2.  I also need to set up the stereoout.state after startup.
3.  Need to install libmad to get mp3 ringtones working.
4.  After requesting resource Display / CPU and releasing them - automatic
dimming and suspending stops working (I'm using a rule to suspend the
freerunner if it's not charging). I think there is a fix for this already.
5.  Need the devel packages for elementary. I've tried the svn and the new
version has neat sliders. Can we look at moving to the newer version or is
that unlikely because of the probable dependencies on eina/ecore etc? In
that case can we have the devel versions in the repository?
6.  Can you point me to some place where I can read up on how to patch the
build process for FSO packages? I want to patch mplayer to use tremor
instead of libvorbis. It's an option in mplayer (and there might be some
breakage too) but where and how so I start any of such stuff?
7.  Can rules.yaml be made more flexible such as for eg to allow me to use
the aux button to choose amongst three volume settings during a call?
8.  And to have user configurable brightness settings apart from changing
rules.yaml and reloading the rules. (Maybe the values could be picked up
from another file and used thereafter. Just a thought.)
9.  Would like to know how to get my bluetooth headset working in the
interim - till things get all set up in FSO itself. :-)
10.  frameworkd uses upto 70% CPU when changing cells. This is for a brief
period - but 70%? Isn't that too high? Or is that hit because of python -
something we need to live with or are there (possible) methods for reducing
such usage to more acceptable limits?
Thanks.

 Ciao,
  Rainer

The power is consumed by driving a common-emitter transistor driver for LED 
without base resistor. Current flows from GPIO via base to emitter, and it 
for sure had been wiser to drive LED directly from GPIO ;-), instead of 
burning 40mA base current for 10mA collector current. (ballpark numbers)


For the non-fixed AUX LED: I wasn't aware these versions have been sold :-/

Re: Flashing GSM firmware

2009-03-04 Thread Paul Fertser
Steve 'dillo Okay armad...@roadknightlabs.com writes:
 I'm trying to flash my GSM firmware and running into a problem.
 I get to the point where I run the fluid command line and it just  
 sits there.

Basically the idea is that in one terminal you run fluid with right
parameters, and in the other you powercycle the modem. Sometimes
powercycling is needed more than once (while fluid still stays at
(reset target)). And make sure no app accesses GSM. Also i'd recommend
to use the latest stable or any recent andy-tracking kernel, but it's
not strictly necessary.

 Here's the output of what I'm typing in the main window:
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# echo 0 /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm- 
 gsm.0/power_on
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# echo 1 /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm- 
 gsm.0/power_on
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# s3c24xx-gpio b7=0
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# echo a...@poff /dev/ttySAC0
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# FLUID_PORT=/dev/ttySAC0 FLUID_FLOWCONTROL=h  
 fluid.exe \
 -oO -b 115200\
   -f /home/root/gsm_ac_gp_fd_pu_em_cph_ds_vc_cal35_ri_36_amd8_ts0- 
 moko10.m0

All this steps except starting fluid.exe are not strictly necessary
and i'd recommend to start fluid like that: 

FLUID_PORT=/dev/ttySAC0 fluid.exe -oo -od13,13 -f path_to_moko11_bin

Notice i use ROM bootloader and moko11 firmware.

In the other terminal something like this should be enough:
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# echo 0 /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm- 
 gsm.0/power_on
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# echo 1 /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm- 
 gsm.0/power_on
 r...@om-gta02:/usr/sbin# s3c24xx-gpio b7=0

If fluid doesn't pass the (reset target) state, repeat this
steps. Basically it's like i described.

Alternatively, try Joerg's uSD automated image:
http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/calypso_moko_FW/moko11/flash-moko11_uSD-image.tar.gz

It works and reliably flashes the firmware for you.
