 Are there Android 2.2 images for Freeruner?

I doubt these images are of any use (yet). Look at the filesizes.
They're just about 7MB, way too small for a real image.

mdbus2 to check GSM firmware version in latest SHR-u

2010-05-09 Thread Jan Girlich
Hi,

in preparation for checking out android I wanted to see what my GSM
firmware version is as described on this page:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GSM/Flashing

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with mdbus2 and FSO and don't know what
to do about this:

r...@om-gta02 ~ # mdbus2 -s
org.freesmartphone.ogsmd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device
org.freesmartphone.GSM.Device.GetInfo
[ERR]: No method org.freesmartphone.GSM.Device.GetInfo found
at /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device for org.freesmartphone.ogsmd

I guess it got restructured. But how do I find the new GetInfo
equivalent?

Thanks
Jan

I can't close any app anymore. Like the messages app. Open it once, not

currently running messages app anymore and can't open a new one because
you can't start the app twice. Stuck. ssh into the phone/reboot.

latest SHR unstable: neo theme not working well, can't close apps anymore, qwo keyboard breaks starter

2010-05-04 Thread Jan Girlich
Wooha,

after playing around too much with my installation today I broke it and
reflashed my Freerunner with the lastest SHR unstable. And am stuck!
Where do you guys keep up to date regarding the changes in the SHR apps?

I installed shr-theme-neo again and noticed that the background and
symbol font on the starter are black and thus the app names are
unreadable. Changing the wallpaper does not change anything, the
background stays plain black.

The newly designed top bar does and power button-screen do not allow
to close an application as they did before. So now when I open an app
which has no quit button like tnagogps and then open another one, I'm
stuck. I can't go back to the already opened instance because the left
and right arrows to switch between apps are missing, and even if I
could, I didn't know how to close it again. Tapping the tangopgs symbol
again doesn't do anything: neither changing to the already opened
instance out of sight nor opening a new one. How can I close apps? How
can I switch between them?

I really like the qwo keyboard, when I change the keyboard setting to
qwo it permanently is overlayed on the screen, about middle of the
screen, left side, and all app starter symbols are blanking out so I
can't see any app anymore. qwo stays like this no matter what the
topbars keyboard indicator status is and I have no clue how to make qwo
go away and only appear when I tap the keyboard indicator icon like the
default keyboard does.

Any help appreciated
Jan

 1) Every time I start a call, the Dialogue screen disappears. I don’t know
 why its this way, is there a way to solve this? As I’ve understand you can
 modify the Frerunners code by writing scripts into the phones terminal. Is
 that correct, you don’t need a linux computer to be able to do these tweaks
 (for example setting the time)?

Yes, you can. By default you should have an app named 'Terminal' on
your ...errr... 'Desktop' after booting up. It's rather inconvenient, so
I'd recommend hooking your FR up to a pc via USB and using ssh to
connect to it for writing configs or scripts etc.
I don't know what you mean by 'Dialogue screen' though. But maybe you're
having this problem:
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2010-March/060810.html

 2) I can only start my FR using the AUX start and selecting boot. When I
 simply power it on I get a error screen saying:
 […] 

Maybe you don't wait long enough? As already said the g_ether messages
are no problem. The jffs message might be a filesystem corruption.

 3) I have no idea of how I should get access to my uSD card. I’ve put a
 WAV-file onto it and a JPG picture, I would like these as Ringtone and
 background picture. How am I supposed to do that? It seems I can’t browse
 the card but only the Flash memory where I can’t put files. When I for
 example open InTone and browse for directory, it seems it only shows Flash
 memory directories.

Isn't it mounted under /media/card ? If not a
'mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/card' should do the trick.

 4) How do I install a new keyboard to the Freerunner? Im interested in the
 Literki keyboard since it’s made for fingers:
 http://www.opkg.org/package_232.html . If you have other recommendations im
 grateful, I’ve read somewhere about a keyboard that saves your used words
 for faster use (This would be helpful for me since I’ll type everything in
 Swedish).

Connect your Freerunner to the internet and on a command prompt
(Terminal on the phone, or more convenient: ssh over USB) enter 'opkg
install http://pvtrace.com/~miki150/literki_0.0.2-r6_armv4t.ipk' (Link
taken from the download button on the webpage you posted).
To get your freerunner connected via USB check out this wiki article:
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking or use Wifi or a GPRS
connection or your uSD card calling opkg with the path to the file on
the uSD card instead of the URL.

'opkg list-upgradable' lists up-to-date packages on latest SHR unstable

2010-03-14 Thread Jan Girlich
Hi,

just tried to update my phone because pretty much everything is broken
(sms app dies right after opening, no contacts show up in contacts app,
call screen dies after dialing so I can't hang up anymore, yadayada)

But I discovered that when I execute 'opkg list-upgradable' or 'opkg
upgrade' opkg tries upgrading programs which are already up-to-date.

Is there any temp file or similar where the upgradable information is
stored? Where does opkg get it's information from? How can I find out
what's wrong here?

Example:
r...@om-gta02:~# opkg list-upgradable
python-edbus - 0.3.1+svnr46504-ml0.4 - 0.3.1+svnr46510-ml0.4
[...]
r...@om-gta02:~# opkg install python-edbus
Package python-edbus (0.3.1+svnr46510-ml0.4) installed in root is up to
date.

 Can you check your file /usr/lib/opkg/status? Does it mention python-edbus

To hit it off I suggest the following procedure:

1) You guys look up the parts you need for your fixes on

2) I'll order the parts for us all to save on the shipping and tell you

3) You bring your phones and a handful € you think the work and parts
are worth.

Sounds good?

 The short to ground at R4303 means that even with a working mic you will have 
 little to no signal. You will need to get that fixed before you can test the 
 mic.

Got it confirmed by a friend yesterday, R4303 really is short circuited.
Gotta get a replacement and find a suitable soldering gun.

Anyone in or around Hamburg, Germany with the right tools to do some SMD

2010-02-26 Thread Jan Girlich
Hi,

since I got my OM debuzzed the mic volume went very soft and I just
found out that it's due to the 2k2 resistor at pads R4303 being either
short circuited or the wrong part (just the bridge it was before?).

If you are living in Hamburg, Germany, have the appropriate tools and
skills and maybe have the right resistor at hand or know someone who
does, please drop me a message.

I'll compensate the effort accordingly.

  After fiddling around with the settings for a long time I ended up with
  setting the controls in the gsmhandset.state file back to these values.
  The other values are untouched.
  
  * control.48:   3
  * control.63:   'Mic 2'
  * control.12:   7
  * control.5:115
 
 Controls 48 and 12 are on maximum, while control 5 has 12 steps remaining. 
 You 
 still have scope to make the mic a fair bit louder if you need to. 3, 5 and 
 121 would give the same volume level with less chance of distortion. 

Tried it. Still so soft that you have to yell really loud at the phone
and only hardly can hear anything on the other end. I'm usually testing
with my stereo, turning it on and putting the phone on the speaker. But
I have to turn my stereo to levels it's getting uncomfortably loud just
to hear a faint noise over the phone.

  and only hardly can hear anything on the other end. I'm usually testing
  with my stereo, turning it on and putting the phone on the speaker. But
  I have to turn my stereo to levels it's getting uncomfortably loud just
  to hear a faint noise over the phone.
 
 So 3, 7, 127 is still too quiet? In that case something may be wrong. Check 
 the buzz fix, and also that the hole in the case isn't blocked.

Checked it, the hole is free.

Re: Mic volume extremely soft after buzz fix with SHR unstable

 And the rest of the buzz fix? Check the resistance of R4303 (mic case to gold 
 ring) as described in the SOP. It should be 2k2. Also look for shorts between 
 pads.

Hm. It's hard to place the tips properly on the pads or ends of
the resistor, but the only reading I got was 0 Ohm. Maybe the guy who
did the buzz fix for me placed the bridge he removed back in? Or created
a short? I can't see any short visually, but I didn't look with any
magnifying glass yet.

I'll have a further look into it.

 It might be that you have your mic dead.  I've replaced my own because
 it came already dead. The symptoms were the same. You must cry loud to
 micro and on the other end someone hears you very silent.

Any way to conclusively check if it's the mic? And how did you get it
replaced? I wouldn't be able to do the soldering work myself.

Mic volume extremely soft after buzz fix with SHR unstable

2010-02-21 Thread Jan Girlich
Hi,

after I got my gta02 A06 a hardware buzz fix late December last year the
mic is very soft with the newest SHR unstable. So I had a look at all
the different tips around and carefully read all emails of the thread
Experiment: better sound on remote end and all links mentioned in
there and tried all the suggested tweaks and got rid of any static or
noise, but the mic still is so soft that I literally have to yell at my
phone from close distance in order to be hardly understood by the
callee.

What could be the problem? Any suggestions on what I could try to set
the mic volume to a usable level? Could the problem be related to the
buzz fix?

After fiddling around with the settings for a long time I ended up with
setting the controls in the gsmhandset.state file back to these values.
The other values are untouched.

* control.48:   3
* control.63:   'Mic 2'
* control.12:   7
* control.5:115

btw: What is the difference
between /etc/freesmartphone/alsa/default/gsmhandset
and /usr/share/shr/scenarii/gsmhandset.state ? Both are mentioned on the
wiki pages I read and latter is mentioned to be the one used by SHR
although the first one exists on my install as well.

Need any more info to help me out?
Thanks
Jan

 This one is used by fsodeviced, i.e. the new stuff that's being used on
 SHR.

Good to know. So far I did all changes to both files, but will discard
the old one now.

 There is.  It's their.

Difference is pike is using singular, you're using plural, Neil. Using
plural just seems like a quick hack to me, the real bugfix would be to
introduce a proper word for he/she, him/his, ... in the English
language. I believe other languages have a third form which has no
gender. Was it Spanish?

Re: Hardwarefixing at 26c3?

2009-12-29 Thread Jan Girlich
Hi,

I just got my buzzfix done by Ello as well. Thanks for that! But now I
noticed that people only hear me very *softly* almost not at all, even
when I crank up the mic input volume to max.

Any know bug I just couldn't find? Or maybe a problem with the buzz fix?

Greetings from the Congress!

 do you need 2k2 resistors or do you have a different source? I'm already
 in Berlin, but I could ask a friend to get my buzz/1024 fixing components.

Would you mind to bring those parts for my phone as well?

Thanks
