It's actually much easier to do it in Linux than in Windows. The issue is that most companies don't see wpa-enterprise as a necessity for a cell phone.

In regards to the 850MHz Issue: It seems that very little effort was required to switch a phone board to 850 for testing. So my question is what exactly is involved. Was it simply switching which pin is attached to the antenna? If it is a relatively simple circuit change and involving only a top (or bottom) layer trace, is it possible to tell us what connections to change to convert an existing unit to 850MHz. Obviously only for the very experienced people.

Hi Michael: As I mentioned in a previous email to you, I'm in a 850Mhz _only_ area - so I can test the handset for you - though I am in Canada. Provider is Rogers and the area is Ottawa. Also, would there be any possibility of releasing the changes made to the GTA01 to make it 850Mhz compatible?

Re: Community update: GSM firmware, 850MHz experiment, GTA02 progress
Depending on the level of complexity, this could be *great* news for me. I don't travel internationally that often (currently, but the frequency could always up in the future) so having quad-band is borderline nice and necessity. But if I could make changes (before/after trips) to switch the bands, then I might consider that a workable solution. I'm fairly handy with a soldering iron, so as long as it isn't too complex I'd feel comfortable doing it. I know that they are probably into very finalized versions of the hardware, but it might be worth looking into how much change would be required to ease the transition between bands. Example, if it is just a small number of wires that has to be changed, possibly creating a switch to toggle between the settings. I, for one, would consider that a more than suitable workaround and almost nullify my no-quadband issues. -Jonathon -Original Message- From: Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: List for OpenMoko community discussion community@lists.openmoko.org To: List for OpenMoko community discussion community@lists.openmoko.org Subject: Re: Community update: GSM firmware, 850MHz experiment, GTA02 progress Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2007 09:32:50 -0500 In regards to the 850MHz Issue: It seems that very little effort was required to switch a phone board to 850 for testing.

As has been discussed earlier, this is not a change you can make yourself. Conceivably, you could change the components yourself, if you had the right equipment, but there are also changes to the firmware that you can not make yourself. There is no possibility of adding a switch, as a number of components have to be replaced. Michael Jonathon Suggs wrote: Depending on the level of complexity, this could be *great* news for me.

Any chance to have a dual-SIM slot on futures products?
I remembered a discussion about how to use more than one SIM card in the neo. Until recently, I've only seen some kind of hack about it. For example, in the battery or in a SIM card adapter (or by cloning a sim card = illegal). http://www.dualsim.de/ http://ucables.com/ref/SIM-CLONE It seems that some manufacturers (Samsung and Verzio) have integrated a dual-SIM slot in their products. And both SIMs are active at the same time! http://www.verzioworld.com/as/pressroom.html http://www.mobilegazette.com/samsung-duos-d880-07x10x08.htm snip The Samsung DuoS gets around this by having two SIM slots in the back, and both SIMs are active at the same time. ... At the moment, the Samsung DuoS / D880 has only been confirmed for release in Russia later this month. It's a relatively expensive device at 18,000 rubles (around £350 or €510) before tax. Expect to have to pay the full price without any discount, because no carrier will want to subsidise a handset that another carrier will use and locking the device to a single network would be pointless. snip I'll have use of it (professional/private number with two differents operators) and imagine that will be wished too by people which travel a lot (in a way to reduce roaming costs). Any chance to have it on a future product (gta-03 or 04 ;-)? Regards, ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Would someone comment about how the Linux Phone Standards Forum (LiPS) proposed specification relates to (or not) the OpenMoko roadmap. -- Ron K.

Re: Please help me with the openmoko-devel-image build issue

Anyway, when try to build the openmoko-devel-image (openmoko 2007.2 version) according to Getting OpenMoko working on host with Xoo and Building OpenMoko using the MokoMakefile , I encountered the following problem with uboot build (the error message is attached at the end). While, it can pass the build process if theuboot-openmoko flag is deleted from the Makefile but it can boot up the openmoko finally in the following steps. Hi, I encounter the two same errors. While the first regarding uboot can be ignored, it seems the second comes from using dash instead bash as default shell. Maybe /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/dash on your system. On a debian system, using sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash may help (see http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro). However I can't certify this is really the cause because I didn't have time to rebuild one more time.
