Want to get another freerunner with some cheap deal

2010-03-28 Thread Vikas Saurabh
Hi,

I have lost my FR a week back. So, I have now switched to a _usual_ phone.

Since then I have started to feel that I should continue phone
functions on this _usual_ phone as that can allow me to experiment on
FR.

So, I want to buy another FR as cheap as possible (2nd hand is not an
issue). Buzz/Bass fixes won't really make a difference as I won't be
using it for a phonebut they are welcome anyways :)

I am in India (which is why idasystems is also in the To list).
Interested people can mail to me directly

For me, opimd had been quite slow (i've some 1500 messages and may be

 some day in the future i could see read them into a future

[SHR-U] process priority

2009-10-30 Thread Vikas Saurabh
I just noticed that framework is running with niceness 0 (while
enlightenment is running with -10).

Can this be the reason that sometimes it takes a long time for calls
to respond? (one can easily observe UI freezes on litephone when
disconnecting a call).
It a wild hunch, but I can't really test it as I don't have a spare
phone to call and test the theory.

well, this might not be totally helpful, but ffalarms does that using
atd 
(http://projects.openmoko.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/tags/0.2.2/ffalarms/ffalarms.py?rev=25root=ffalarmssortby=revview=log

it works, but I'm sure you can work it out :)...
there is FSO function setWakeupTime...but I don't think there can be
multiple wakeup timesmoreover, atd would allow you to specify what
to execute when the phone wakes up

Re: SHR status

2009-10-19 Thread Vikas Saurabh
 Yes, I've updated the firmware. The missed calls are because I can't answer
 them. I hit answer and the phone keeps ringing. The positive side is that I
 know who called and can call back.

This happens to me on litephone...and I always thought that it was a
litephone issue. Which phone-app do you use? (ophonekitd???,
shr-launcher???)

For me I am not seeing any issues(issue with resume) with either
adaptive or never. So I have a working buzz free FR :D

Re: Fwd: buzzfix in India

2009-09-16 Thread Vikas Saurabh
A lot of thanks to IDA Systems (Rakshat and Zoheb) as Vibhav and I
finally get the buzz fix done. And alongwith that our phones got
blessed with the 1024 fix as well :D.

Sorry for no pics of the naked moko being fixed.

Regarding the fixes:
Buzz fix: I (recepients of my calls) haven't been observing lots of
buzz fix anyways (maybe due to my provider's freq range); so I don't
know how much has the fix saved the day. One thing is for sure that
the call quality hasn't degraded.
1024 fix: I am on SHR-U so avoiding deep sleep was just 1 line of
config. Anyways, after the fix I have removed that line and haven't
yet missed even a single call. So, I assume that the modem is indeed
going to deep sleep without losing registration (Is there a better way
to test it???). I haven't been able to check increase in battery life
(today my phone would get zero juicelets see how long can it
sustain)

There is a small side effect...though I am unsure if it due to the h/w
mods (but that I observe the issue just after the phone is fixed seems
like to big a coincidence).
If I let the phone go to auto-suspend (after being idle), and then
bring it back to life by pressing power button then it goes back to
sleep immediately after waking up. The second power button press
resumes it normally.
I don't observe this if I manually make it go to suspend or if it
comes out of suspend due to call.

Hi All,
Zoheb from IDA systems is in Delhi these days and the Delhi FR owners
(basically just Vibhav and me :) are going to get our phones fixed on
Wednesday. We are going for buzz fix and 1024.
I tried to look for component for 1024 but 22uF-0805-ceramic capacitor
was nowhere to be found. So, I have got some(50) 10uF-0805-ceramic
caps instead and we are going for the fix described in this [1] image

insulation under/over/around it to avoid it touching anything

[SHR-Today] Accept call without unlocking

Hi,

Quite often when I get a call, all I see is the locked screen. Now,
what I would expect is to able to accept the call without actually

Can we have another slider like control with slider thumb in between.
Moving the slide to left accepts the call and moving it to the right
rejects it.

trivial for him and I myself am not sure about the bass fix. The mail

Hi guys,

First off, I am terribly sorry for the delay. I was too busy with work
of late. Anyways, I guess we need to plan on the dates and mode of
transport of phones to NCR.

Till now, I know of only following people (through this mail chain):
NCR:
Gora Mohanty (1973)
Vibhav Sharma (FR - ??)
/me Vikas Saurabh (FR - A5) -- In for buzz fix in 1024shaky about bass fix

Bangalore:
Shashank Bharadwaj ()
Alok G. Singh ()
Ganesh Krishna ()

?:
Chetan Chandel ()

I am unsure if 1973 also needs hardware mods...but I still took the
liberty to include Gora.

This number is very small as compared to 150 (number of FRs that
Rakshat said have been sold in India)...is there anyone else? I wanted
to all this in wiki but I don't think we are still planned enough to
update http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/BuzzFixParty

Regarding the fixes, there are basically 3 hardware mods:
* Buzz fix - the whole point of starting the program
* 1024 recamping fix - there is a lot of re-registration thereby
reducing the battery time
* Bass fix - probably, the FR circuitry cuts off certain frequencies
thereby reducing quality audio output

[SHR-U] opkg upgrade results in no GSM again :(

2009-08-23 Thread Vikas Saurabh

Hi,

Last night I did opkg upgrade and since then I am just getting 'No
Service' in grey on the signal strength meter.
Attached is a snip from my frameworkd.log[1] with log_level=DEBUG for ogsmd.

Although, I have no idea about AT commands, the only thing that looks
suspicious in the log is 'AT+COPS=3,0;+COPS?;+COPS=3,2;+COPS?'
resulting in '+CME ERROR: 3'.

BTW, I have an old (pretty old) yet working image of shr-u on another
partition which registers perfectly.

Was I not supposed to upgrade? Was there a red flag that I missed? And
anyways, do I need to wait for some upgrade or this can be fixed
rather easily (I would hate to reflash)

Although, I already have higher versions installed for each of those
packages. opkg info would also show that these (upgradable) packages
are de-installed while the newer one is installed.

opkg upgrade would just say that the pakcage is already installed for
each of the package.

I don't know if that can be reason...but that sure looked scrupulous to me

Re: Fwd: buzzfix in India

2009-08-21 Thread Vikas Saurabh
 Do you pplan it on any particular date? IMHO it is worth to put it into
 CU, but need date details also.

We haven't yet decided on the dates. In fact we were trying to figure
out if we can do #1024 and bass fix as well alongwith buzz fix. I have
been neck-deep in work this week and i think same would be true for
the next week. After that I plan to settle for the plan (schematics,
drawing, components, etc) for #1024 and bass fix (unless someone else
does it earlier).

Then we would call for the FR from outside Delhi (I know only 2 up
till now...chetan and alok...both, i guess, in bangalore) and then get
them for fix. I thought sending the FRs is a far bigger problem than
actually getting it down to the shop and get it fixed.

Of course, this counts in for CU only when things solidify a bit more

@Rakshat: how many FRs do we have in India? do you expect anyone else
who _might_ not be following the list?

 Did anyone get their location data? (Should come under the date and above

I can see the location data. Although there is one issue (not with the
location data)...when Ready! is shown the category bar shifts down
just so much to hide the category labels
(http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/08081d27d9ae2103b65673acfbc018e6.png)


 Any feedback about the phonelog, reminders etc?
phonelog seems fine...haven't got any reminder yet :). Of course
phonelog is not picking up contacts from opimd (but you are saying
that you would soon be using opimd so thats a non-issue :)
BTW, I was wondering if, we can have a dedicated cell in category bar
for phone functionality. And selecting it would show something like
litephone (may be litephone itself?). That ways you wont need to
duplicate the efforts...of course someone would need to get the UI in
sync...


  Well, thats one issue. Could you copy all the icons from
 /usr/share/icons/shr/86x86/apps to /usr/share/pixmaps ?
  I wonder what the best way to solve this is - other than checking both
 directories.

I was wondering if there are existing libraries which parse .desktop
files and give back a standard structure (say {iconPath, label,
executable}, etc). I guess illume (desktop) would alredy be using
something of that kind (if it exists)

Re: Fwd: buzzfix in India

2009-08-17 Thread Vikas Saurabh
 On a related note, the fix for #1024 and the bass boost as well as the
 shorting of the erroneous capacitor[1] (if present) would be a welcome
 addition to the Buzz fix. It seems a reasonable amount of effort to send
 the phone and it would make sense to do as much as possible on this one
 trip. Could someone with hardware skills explain the various fixes to
 the guy who is doing the fixes ?

I am no hardware guy, in fact I haven't even opened up my phone beyond
the battery case yet...not that I see some risk...just that I don't
see any reason to do that. Anyways, for bass fix there is a wiki page
(http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GTA02_bass_fix) which suggests more
that one way of fixing the issue with pros and cons
For bug#1024, the only nice link I got was
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/hardware/2009-May/001192.html

I think the descriptions are pretty well written but then thats my
perspective who hasn't ever used a solder iron. Anyone with more
experience please jump in.

Re: Fwd: buzzfix in India

2009-08-14 Thread Vikas Saurabh
Hi All,

We are planning a buzz fix for FRs in India. As Rakshat has already
pointed out, the guy who would do the buzz fix is placed at Delhi. IDA
systems would be bearing the cost of buzz fix while we need to take
care of sending in the devices and take it back.
People in Delhi itself can of course bump in personally.

I already know of Vibhav and Gora who are in Delhi and would be
interested. Please use this thread to show your preference and if you
be shipping or coming in personally. We are still to figure out a date
for this.

The buzz fix would be done at:
Baig Electronics
K-33 Batla House, near Mosque Khalilullah
Jamia Nagar okhla
011-26984151
9810134572
(although I couldn't figure out the exact address but Mosque
Khalilullah is at http://wikimapia.org/587273/Masjid-Khalilullah...so
reaching there shouldn't be very hard :)

quote from Rakshat's first mail
IDA Systems (with support from Openmoko) will cover the actual costs
of the buzz fix procedure and the components. Shipping costs (to and
back from) Delhi, where the contracter who will undertake the Buzz Fix
is based, will have to be borne by the customer (We will work with you
to get good and easy shipping options and also give a free extra
Battery as a return gift with each Freerunner sent for the Buzz Fix to
cover costs)
/quote
I am unsure how would that work out but I guess Rakshat can jump in
here. While I don't know about postage options, I think the package
can still be sent to one of us (users) and we would take all the FRs
to the guy at the same time.

I think we can update http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/BuzzFixParty as
soon as this takes a little more shape

  I would like to get my FR buzz fixed too. I was kind of hoping we could
 get the #1024 (modem deep sleep) and the bass workaround for the earphones

 improve battery life. Both require adding additional capacitors in parallel
 and aren't too tough.

I was also thinking on the same lines. I guess we can take the
schematics/print etc and get it done. At least I would be fine to bear
the extra cost (if any) myself

I think what you mean here that fsoraw should be a part of FSO in the
same sense as mdbus is. Both are just
reference/handy/easy-to-use/make-life-easy apps which are using the
services provided by the framework (like resource management, etc)

I think its a debate is about what all should be included in linux

Re: Screen in FR goes black and white after resume from suspend

2009-08-10 Thread Vikas Saurabh
 The screen in my FR goes B/W with weird lines after it resumes from
 suspend.Got to know it is WSOD bug (or sometimes resumes in grey scale mode)
 .Well temporarily I can change the FR not to suspend but I have to do so
 after every reboot.Any solutions?

Hi Ranjan,

What you mention here doesn't seem like the WSOD bug (may be I am
wrong there...as I have never faced WSOD)...I think you are refering
to this-http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td3031505

As you might see from the mail that its a kernel specific issue and
every distribution uses different kernels (by defualt). Which is why
it is necessary to know which distribution are you using. On this
mailing list we have a convention to prepend the subject link with
[distribution] so that:
* Uninterested audience don't jump it
* You provide a vital piece of information automatically
Of course there can be issues which are not distribution
specific...but I think even then its safe to put your distribution in
the subject line.

I had been facing this problem when I was on SHR-Testing long time
back. Haven't seen this since I switched to SHR-Unstable (which, btw,
isn't as unstable as its name suggests :). I think even Debian would
be on newer kernel. I have no idea about OM2009

PS: Of course most of my mail is irrelevant if you are actually facing

I am totally awed with this mini-comp with not-so-good-yet-workable GSM
capabilities.

But the best hack/trick I could try on my FR was when I was totally out of
any comp anywhere (linux/win) although there was WiFi available and I wanted
to flash SHR-U on the device.
Well it was so simple...I just browsed to shr-u images link and downloaded
the tar.gz. Created a new partition on my SD card. Untarred the image on
that parition. Put noboot-GTA02 in the original partition. Reboot and voila
I was working on SHR-U.
It was an amazing feeling:
* Flash your phone with a new OS
* No USB cable
* No trick to start flashing
* Using one distro to install another

woah!..show me any phone that can do that...in fact i don't even know of any
mainstream linux distributions for desktop which would support that :)

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GTA02_sysfs#GTA02_Kernel_sysfs_highlights_for_kernel_2.6.28.
specifically:
   charger_type =
/sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073/pcf50633-mbc/chg_curlim #limit
that freerunner would accept
   capacity = /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity
   voltage = /sys/class/power_supply/battery/voltage_now
   status = /sys/class/power_supply/battery/status
   image_dir = /usr/share/battery/
   usb_limit = /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073/pcf50633-mbc/usb_curlim
#current that is actually coming

I have attached a modified battery.py for the
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Forcing_fast_charge_mode#The_battery_package.
I don't know how to make the package so I guess someone might help
here :).

BTW, I don't know python...I have updated it by copying the code...so
it would be great if someone reviews it before packaging.

Moreover, once the information is confirmed we can update
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Forcing_fast_charge_mode with exact
paths as well

 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Forcing_fast_charge_mode#Beni.27s_fast_charge_gta02.sh
 it says that The /sys paths need to be updated for recent distributions what
 does that mean?  If simply editing the shell script will get it working again
 I will be happy to do it if I knew what that means.

Re: [shr-testing] Forcing fast charge mode

 With the current setup I get this error from the script: File not found:
 /sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-i2c/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073/chgmode!
  my guess would be this may be where it should be pointed to the voltage_now

 sure about this.

says that chgmode used to tell if the phone is charging or not.
I think status also tells you exactly the same thing.
You can cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/status to verify that.

Re: Where is startup log?

I don't know exactly where the startup logs are...dmesg and logread

But, what you observed happened to me once with Om2008.8 when I
changed my feed to testing and upgraded. It gave lots of warning about
gtk+ trying to overwrite files installed using gtk-fastscaling+ and

Re: Partitionning separate /home/ floder to SD

2008-10-20 Thread Vikas Saurabh
Flash has limited writes in its lifetime. That is why we have special
filesystems for flash [1],[2] (e.g. jffs2).

ext3 (due to its journalling) might not be good idea for Sd-card. I think
ext2 would fare fine except that it might be left with corrupted FS in case
improper shutdown but at least it would not impact the life of the card.

Re: New rotate version

2008-10-14 Thread Vikas Saurabh
This seems pretty stable than the previous one. The brightness effect is
nice, but the event, apparently, is hitting even if the phone is moved a
little (i was trying to type a message).
The brightness thing started to feel too much pain, so I killed the rotate
instance (from a separated ssh session). Unfortunately, the program had
thought that I am rotating and hence had brightness set to 0 when I killed
it. So, I was left with a switched off screen :).

So, 2 cents from my side
(1) The brightness effect (and rotation) should be applied only we are
switching orientation (I am not too sure if accels would give that data
directlybut keeping a state can be a workaround...it would give some
false positives and negative, but would have a better output)
(2) We might like to put a close program handler which would try to reset
the brightness to the last read brightness value (if the rotation was in
progress while the program was closed)

 Hi,

 Thank you very much for your input. Can you try to run a bit of the
 'test' I include? I'm starting to suspect different accelerometers might
 give different outputs and so the heuristics might not make sense
 anymore, I hope that's not the case.

 You can return the brightenss with

 echo 63  /sys/class/backlight/pcf50633-bl/brightness

 ... in the meanwhile.

 As for terminating... only a few signals can be caught, I will try to
 set them up in order to stop in a sane state (xrandr -o 0, full
 brightness if it's currently 0, and so on).

Re: import/export sms from qtopia

Ahhbut that seems to be too late for me. I already have information on
my current image.
I was wondering if I could somehow extract the info from the backup and put

I just did this on my install, and it was as simple as copying my backup
 back to the phone.


BTW, I think all the messages (including sent and received) are stored under
qtmail folder (within the home directory) as different text files. But just
copying those didn't help. I guess qtopia makes some entry in its database.
I think qtopia's db is just a sqlite file.

 Indeed, that's exactly what it does.  It loads the kernel image into
 RAM, puts some parameters and a pointer to the ATAGS (which include
 stuff the kernel command-line) into registers and jumps to the start
 of the image.  See here for details:

 http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/booting.php

 
  I had done this helloworld kind of thing with grub during

 Note that the Freerunner doesn't have a BIOS.  When you did it on x86
 you probably used the BIOS' printing routines.  If you want to do it
 on the FR you'll have to do your own font blitting etc.  If you have
 a debug board you could print it to a serial port.  You can then also
 use JTAG to debug your code and figure out what is going on.  If you
 don't have the debug board, I guess you could easily enough blink out
 hello world in morse code through an LED or by turning on and off the
 backlight or something.

 It might also be useful to play with it in qemu, just pass in your
 binary with the -kernel option, you can connect gdb to it and step
 through line by line (see the qemu documentation for how to do this).

 As to how to actually do it, it's a bit of a pain.  You'll probably
 need to write a little ARM assembler stub entry point to setup a
 stack and call your C code.  Although you might be able to just reuse
 u-boots stack, I guess.  Then you'll need to compile your code with -
 nostdlib and link it in a way that ensures your assembler code is at
 the start of the image, you might need to investigate custom linker
 scripts for this, I can't remember.  You can then use something like
 objcopy -O binary mycode.elf mycode.bin to pull the raw code out of
 the elf file the linker generated, so that you can give it to u-boot.

 Remember also that you won't have any standard library, so you'll
 have to write every function you want to use yourself (or use
 something like the OSKit C library) and if you code has a bug it's
 just going to hang or reset the CPU, unless you define your own error
 handling code.

 So yes, certainly doable and a good learning experience but it's not
 exactly straightforward.

Re: dfu_upload error -84 when trying to backup images

2008-08-16 Thread Vikas Saurabh
I dont think this is related to the architecture. I had faced similar
issue on core duo (i had put a comment on the wiki for the same). Btw,
i didnt have to flash the back up image so i dont know if it actually
worked out correctly.

 Has anybody had a similar experience?

Re: dfu_upload error -84 when trying to backup images

Try mounting the jffs2 file as mentioned in the wiki. Check the
mounted file-system.

 I tried this once and got the same error.

 Then I ran grep on the image file it produced with words that I knew
 were present in the filesystem like headphone mono and state.  I
 couldn't find any words in the image, so I don't think the files it
 produces contain real data.  It could be that it's doing something very
 strange, like flipping bits or re-encoding blocks in the dump file.
 Since upload is known to be broken, I didn't look into it any further:

 I guess there are same problems with dfu.

Re: Video demo: Openmoko Neo Freerunner Features Accelerometer-based Gestures, and Screen Orientation

2008-08-11 Thread Vikas Saurabh
I had similar problems with my accels from these imagesperhaps one needs
some kernel module installed as well. Nonetheless, I tried 2008.8 (check out
wiki to see where to get the rootfs and kernel) and accels worked out of the
box.

  I will release a package this week.

 Yes I am.

 hexdump /dev/input/event2 and hexdump /dev/input/event3 output nothing.
  Even if I pick up my neo and wiggle it (Not sure if that's necessary.. but
 I thought I'd try it.. :/  Since it's just giving me nothing)

 No debug output in dmesg (When I try reading, or that I can find in the
 bootup output)

 I just tried upgrading my kernel (
 http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/freerunner/200808/20080810/uImage-2.6.24+git32+2438a8c74c495c95f5b78301a44ed8e8d0b267d5-r2-om-gta02.bin),
 rebooting, etc.  Same problem.

 Perhaps my accelerometers are broken?  I imagine it's either that or the
 kernel.  I opened a ticket on bugzilla.

   Is there something I have to do to turn the accelerometers on?

Re: full-keyboard for Om 2008.08?

2008-08-10 Thread Vikas Saurabh
ok, I tried install the link
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/illume_0.0+svnr196-r12_armv4t.ipk,
but it doesn't work out with the default repositories that are installed by
default.

I just added src/gz daily-armv4t-P
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/ in armv4.conf (...I guess
raster hinted that this is not 'supported' repo)
next opkg update and opkg install illume do the trick.
Restart x-server and I have a configuration in illume-config to choose
keyboards between none and default. None gives the default
hh-feeling-sms-only keyboard. Default gives a full qwerty board (the one
which appeared in last few builds of ASU). (It seems that I need to restart
xserver for the changes to take effect).

My next problem is how to add the number and default keyboard profiles to
the keyboard provided by illume.
I tried to find illume-keyboards-default, etc but don't which repo to find
them in.
I also tried to copy the .kbd(s) [from svn] into
/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/illume/keyboards but that crashed
enlightenment.

Any help

--Vikas

PS: I would love to be able to switch between the illume-keybd and
hhh-keybd without restart X.

  Would you care to elaborate on let me use whatever keyboard i like ?
 
  Maybe you may add a howto into
  http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/ASU_Keyboard_Toggle ?
 
  Many thanks in advance.

 illume's code can use it's internal keyboard, do nothing at all (and just
 wait
 until some external keyboard  is run - like qpe does) or run a keyboard
 process
 for you. it even will queue multiple keyboards if more than 1 was launched
 -
 but it works with a first-come-first-served policy there. the gui config is
 simple (chose none, internal default or some of N others). the gui will
 list
 any .desktop files it found that have Keyboard in the categories list for
 the .desktop. but of course this config dialog isn't really meant to be
 supported. not in ASU/2008.8 so it's more of a if you somehow find it and
 get
 it up - use at your own risk.
