Thanks!!<snip>Hello Richard and Clare and group. I tried the new Qtopia image (as of 11/16). It starts nicely, although it does not make or receive calls. I think I need to have a filing system with builds that I know will do one thing or another. I'm serious. That way I can be a bit more efficient as I try to get my "sea legs" on this device. It is good to see that my issues are not all still "pilot error". I wonder if it would be good to have a "tester" wiki page (or group of such pages) where the functional status of various images and builds, OpenMoko, Qtopia, Android, whatever -- with links to those specific builds -- could be described in a uniform way. One could try a build and record the pass-fail results af a set of simple and standard tests in a tabular format. Perhaps that would be a way in which those less able to write wizardly code could help advance projects? What 5-10 things would wizardly developers like tested by a larger group? 1. Starts and runs 2. Makes call 3. Receives a call 4. Sound works 5. Sound controls work 6. Power management works 7. You get the idea It might also reduce the number of messages like mine on the list. I don't know if I get shot at for creating such a wiki page without asking.

We have had problems with some sim cards, and of course usim cards. We just fixed a few things on Friday and it seems those sims we were having problems with, now work more reliably.I dunno about this. I've not had a good build since before 15th - either non booting (incomplete boot) or booting to where it searches for the network / sim where it sits for(;;)Builds prior to this worked fine with my sim.

What I think is happening is the neo is loading the rootfs and reading past the end of the installed image then it gets confused as it is then reading the end of a previously installed rootfs. Go into u-boot on your neo and type on your pc screen /dev/ttyACM0 then type nand erase rootfs nand erase kernel ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ device-owners mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/device-owners End of device-owners Digest, Vol 5, Issue 21 ********************************************
I was having the same sort of problems. Following the most recent
advice, wiping the kernel and the rootfs, I installed the latest uImage
and the 1117 qtopia rootfs. I believe I got that at
http://buildhost.automated.it/CM2007.2/?M=D, but I can't seem to connect
to that site today to confirm. I had to connect to the device with ssh
and issue an " /usr/sbin/alsactl -f /etc/gsmhandset.state restore ".
After that I was able to get and place calls. I am still unable to get
openmoko's rootfs to connect with the network.
