Re: qtmoko v26 bluetooth headset
Well I have played with the BT operations on qtmoko and here are my results... 1. With a plantronics headset once paired, it will work if you tell it to connect as a headset, the buttons work, and audio is ok. However when the bluetooth headset is subsequently turned on or comes in range of the FR, it seems to connect briefly automatically then disconnect, and you have to go in and connect as headset again from the UI. If you connect as handsfree the buttons no longer work for hangup and accept calls. 2. The Bluetooth is very flaky, while testing I had it lock up on me, or the bluetooth UI just would not come up without a reboot. 3. With one of my handsfree devices (the VR3 car speakerphone) if I connect as handsfree device, it actually works very well, the buttons accept and reject calls, and the incoming number shows on the devices LCD. This is surprising as the qt implementation of the handsfree profile looks incomplete, but I may be looking in the wrong place. 4. With my preferred device the Motorola T505 handsfree device, it has trouble connecting on occasions. If connecting as a handsfree device, the devices buttons do not accept or hangup a call, and the incoming number is not detected. But it does seem to work, although not in a usable way. If I try to connect as a headset it does not seem to work at all. Conclusions are that the system needs to be made more sturdy (maybe upgrade to bluez4, which would be a lot of work). The Handsfree profile code needs to be looked at closely and made to work with more devices. We need to make it automatically connect to a preferred device when in range with the preferred profile (headset or handsfree), having to go to the UI to connect everytime is not very usable. However I am impressed with how far Radek has got with this so far, especially as he doesn't use BT much :) I'll see if I can fix some of these issues, time permitting.

Anyone ever fixed the from 129 SMS on any distro?
Having recently come back to my FR after a year or so, I find it still gets the from 129 SMS after calling the voicemail. (I know what it is, I just want to fix it ;) I was wondering if anyone ever fixed this on any distro, and if so how? I want to fix the problem on qtmoko, and copying what others have done would make it much easier.

I have this same issue, its been there since day one. I'd be happy to fix this issue if someone can point me in the rough direction of where in qtmoko you would handle these messages.

Ok, so a couple of things you can try... take out the memry card if you have one in, on older models having that in could cause enough interference to stop the gps getting a fix, The other thing to try is check the gps external antenna connector, sometimes it can come loose and stop the signal. -- Jim Morris, http://blog.wolfman.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I found that sometimes I need to leave the FR standing upright outside and do not move it for 2-5 minutes to get a fix. The reason is that initially it needs to download the entire ephemeral, and everytime it drops a byte it has to start again, So leaving it stationary while it is downloading helps. Once it gets the entire ephemeral the next fix should be very quick, especially with the new save of agps. I was surprised that I actually got a fix indoors and instantly got them again after the first one after upgrading to v26. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: qtmoko v26 bluetooth headset
Hi Radek, Great job, I have been away from the FR for a while, but I am back to see if I can finally use it as a phone, and it looks like I may be able to now with this bluetooth stuff. Its nice to see that my qtpedometer (with car finder) still works, which is just as well as I have totally forgotten how to build apps for qtmoko ;) I have several bt headsets and handsfree devices, so this is what I have found so far My plantronics earpiece works great, automatically connects when it is on, and the button accepts and hangs up calls. My Motorola T505 handsfree device also works, but the button does not accept or hangup calls, ditto with the VR handsfree device I have. (This is a serious problem for me when in the car). My IOGear stereo headset connects via A2DP, and works with mplayer (although rather choppy), and only appears to be mono. I have an in-car builtin bluetooth, which I haven't tried yet, it has buttons on the steering wheel to accept and hangup calls. I'll do some research to see why the headset button works but the handsfree doesn't, unless someone can point me to the problem. Its amazing that you were able to integrate all this into qtmoko! The incoming call first is a bit of a problem but I can live with that for a while.

I guess I can sniff around what you guys did for the other dists, and try to do the equivalent here, seems Radek got most of it working, but going into a shell and typing stuff to connect and disconnect would probably make the California Highway Patrol come down on you like a ton of bricks, especially since texting while driving is illegal (although it doesn't say typing shell commands is illegal ;) Anyway the main point is I need to integrate all this into the system so it all happens automatically, like on most other phones, otherwise it defeats the object of having a "handsfree device". Has this been automated on the other dists, or do people still need to setup everything manually? Does qtmoko use the same version of bluez as the other dists? Do those dists handle the buttons for answering and hanging up calls? If so I can probably port some of that over unless it all uses frameworkd and dbus commands.

qtmoko v26 bluetooth headset
Hi, I upgraded to v26 of qtmoko and it looks pretty darn good! Wifi worked out of the box with wpa/psk which is an awesome feat! Anyway I tried to get my bluetooth headset to work, and I am not sure exactly what needs to be done to make this work seemlessly. I paired OK, I connected as handsfree, and the headset beeped. Clicking the headset button did not do anything, it should usually recall the last number or bringup the dialing screen. Neither of the media players (mplayer and the other one) played through the headset, and voice record did not record or playback through the headset either. I have not tried to make a GSM call yet using the headset, but was wondering how far the BT integration has gone? 1. Should it work with a GSM call? If so what else has to be done to make it work? 2. Will the headset button answer an incoming call? 3. Do I have to manually connect everytime I want to use the headset? or will it automatically connect when in range (like my other cells phones). 4. I notice in the tools there is a start gsm bt audio fix, what does that do? does it need to be done every time I start up the phone or connect to the BT headset? Thanks all for the great work, this looks very good at last, maybe after waiting several years, if the BT headset stuff works, I can start using my FR as a phone ;) (BT handsfree is a legal requirement here). I did contribute way back to the power monitoring for qtmoko and fixing some bugs in that code, and can contribute to making BT work seemlessly, if that is possible, but I need to know how far the current integration has gone, and if anyone is actually using BT for phone calls. I do not really need BT to work for the media players, or voice recording but it would be nice.

No screen input after suspend
I am using qtmoko, but I don;t think this is related as restartinf qpe does not solve the problem. We are using the latest andy tracking.

I just found the bug in QtMoko for this, and will submit the patch to Radek. Basically it was not detecting the not charging but plugged in correctly and someone had added a hack to turn off charging that was causing it to restore the screen every time it sampled the battery state.

The battery indicator showing full when it should show 75% does not always happen, but after a few suspend/resume cycles I can make it happen. When it does happen I can cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity and get the correct answer of 75. but both the value space /Hardware/Accessories/QPowerSource/DefaultBattery/Charge (which is what the battery indicator uses) and the QPowerSource::capacity() calls return 100, which is obviously wrong. This points to a bug in QtMoko (actually Qt Extended). It is odd because tracing the calls they ultimately just read /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity, so I suspect the QPowerSource service is dying or something like that. I'll continue to track this down, as it is quite a serious bug.

[qtmoko] what sets up the kernel killing machine?
Hi, I added a swap file to my qtmoko v11 setup, but somethign inthe kernel still tries to kill stuff off, like qdsync (why is that running anyway?) and mediaserver. So I suspect that there is a setting somewhere that tells something to look for processes to kill off if memory gets short, but I cannot find it anywhere. With swap enabled I should be bale to disable that feature. While I'm at it I'd also like to stop qdsync from running, so any ideas are welcome.

Re: [QTMOKO] GPS pedometer app up on github
I have updated this since the initial announcement. Added metric option for the Europeans :) Added a compass display to show where North is relative to motion. Added waypoint, will show distance from waypoint and the compass will show the direction to the way point. Now suspends suspend when running. Numerous fixes, and some improvement of the accuracy of the trip distance in some cases. As I still can't seem to build a package I would appreciate if ANT could update the package for me.

I did some research, and there does not seem to be a consensus on how to do it, and the GPS device manufacturers obviously have proprietary solutions they do not disclose or discuss. All the open source programs I looked at do it the simple but very inaccurate way I first tried. They basically calculate the distance between successive fixes (segments) and accumulate that as the distance. This has about a 20%-50% error (estimated). The next attempt I discovered on the web (and how I do it now) is non-intuitive, but basically you take the current speed, and multiply it by the delta time since the last update. This is much more accurate, but still accumulates errors even if you are standing still it accumulates a small error. It works really well when driving though, but for walking (and I suspect biking), it is still inaccurate. Next I added a speed threshold, which you must go over before the distance will accumulate, for walking I set that to .4 miles per hour or 0.1788159993648455703 meters per second. This works well if you are standing still, as it does not accumulate any distance, but it increased the error significantly on a driving trip, when I compared the trip distance of my cars GPS with my version. I haven't tried a walking test yet. So if anyone has any ideas how to make this more accurate I would welcome suggestions.

It is easy enough to start and stop gpsd from the app, but as you say out of the box that won;t work as the configuration file needs to be modified. One solution is for me to eliminate gpsd, and talk directly to the chip as qtpedometer does, but that is not the right way to do it either as you can only have one gps app running. I think the long term solution is to copy FSO, and use DBUS. What do you think?

Re: QtMoko images V9
Excellent work Radek, this is definitely the best release so far, I love the speed ups too. I finally got around to trying my Buzz fixed FR in a real call, and the volume was so low I couldn't hear it. I used the http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/raw-attachment/ticket/2121/gsmhandset.state.new and stuck that into /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/gsmhandset.state, and it was much better. Still rather low but tolerable. I noticed that if I enabled speaker during the call, then there was no sound at all, so I guess the speaker alsa state needs working on? A major problem though is that whenever I run the web browser (and other programs) they get killed at random times, usually within the first few seconds. The browser seems to be killed off as I see this in dmesg... [ 2200.955000] select 2460 (webviewer), adj 15, size 7812, to kill [ 2200.955000] send sigkill to 2460 (webviewer), adj 15, size 7812 Any idea what is killing it off and why? So far I haven't been able to keep the web browser running long enough to visit a page. I am running in flash (not sdcard), and using the latest version V9.

My FR has been sitting collecting dust because no BT headset is a show stopper for me (living in California where handsfree is mandatory when driving). Now if I could get a recipe that actually works I'd be happy to try to put a GUI together to make it work easily, like every handset I have ever had does!

By the time Android is ported over, I am hoping there will have been significant progress on the kernel in the other dists, which android and qtextended etc will benefit from. For my part I am very comfortable writing Java, so being able to write apps in Java is a plus for me, and none of the current dists really support Java well (ok it is supported but have you tried writing a good app with that support?). Of course the H/W bugs such as GSM buzz won't get fixed, but I'm still hoping there will be a H/W fix for that which Openmoko will support for GTA02.

I bought a phone that was supposed to be usable as a phone and as of today still is not usable as a phone. (and don't flame me about you should have known what you were getting, check the Wiki and purchase site back in July and there is no mention of how unstable it is, it is better documented now). The Trolltech Qtopia release is the closest thing to a stable environment for the phone (still not quite usable as a phone though, but closer than anything else currently available). Needing a phone I could actually use as a phone I had to go buy a new cell phone, so I picked up an unlocked Nokia E62 relatively cheap. This is a totally proprietary phone, but it works really well, has a ton of apps on it that also all work, and the bluetooth works exactly as expected with handsfree and headset devices. GPRS works well, and there is a working J2ME stack on it. (so google maps works etc) My point is I'd gladly give up some open source rights in exchange for a phone that works as expected. I'll continue playing with my FR, but I suspect it'll be another 6 months before I can start using it as my primary phone. So there are pluses and minuses to open source, yes you can do whatever you want on it, but the time line to getting a stable environment is pretty long, especially as OM seems to be relying heavily on the community to provide stable core features for the phone. Whereas the non open source stacks out there seem to be very stable and work pretty darn well today. A good trade off IMHO would be to allow a closed but working GSM stack, and leave all the other applications stuff open. That way you get a good stable phone but can still write apps for it in whatever language you desire.

However the A2DP uses a different path, it sends system PCM into the audio chip and then routes it to the PCM out which goes directly to the BT chip. It is nice to know they heard something, however there are other issues with this path that are hinted at on the wolfson site,there maybe a clocking issue between the i2c input and the pcm output, at least that seems true for the reverse direction. BT headset to/from GSM is yet another path, and should not involve the CPU at all (other than for setup). -- Jim Morris, http://blog.wolfman.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

[qtopia] How to add to applications launcher
Hi, Is there an easy way to add an icon to launch say a script to the UI, either in the applications or higher. Something like the devtools page, where it allows you to turn on/off stuff? I'd like to add some scripts that manage things like switching to mass storage mode and back, and other system level scripts. Running the terminal to do these things is a real pain. Adding scripts to devtools would be great too, but I looked at the source code and couldn't figure out where that app even was.

Ok well it didn't work, attached is the gsmbluetooth.state file I am trying to use if anyone is interested and wants to try it. I set this as best I could from comparing the differences between the gsmhandset.state and gsmheadset.state for the gta01 and transcribing to gta02 as best as possible given the undocumented differences between the two.

In the process I just discovered the Qtopia (this is for you Lorn ;) did not load /usr/share/openmoko/scenarios/gsmhandset.state when the call was answered, I had to do it manually, I'm pretty sure this is a regression. Also the options available in the menu when in a call to set speakerphone handset or bluetooth do not seem to do anything.

Then the question for you is if it does work, how do we get Qtopia to load the state file automatically on a gsm call when BT is enabled? -- Jim Morris, http://blog.wolfman.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

A2DP for stereo (CPU to BT) is a different path, and apparently people have been able to get that to work, although with mixed results.

Thats 2,000 lines of code that is about as clear as mud! (and I've written audio drivers before). There is no mention of Bluetooth in these drivers, and no indication how to switch into bluetooth mode. Obviously gta01 was very different, and it is not even clear that the gsmbluetooth.state even worked on a gta01, at least I've never seen any gta01 user claim they had it working. I really don't see how we are supposed to figure this stuff out, without any help from Openmoko. This is a core piece of functionality for a GSM phone guys! Especially in a state where handsfree devices are required whilst driving. I would appreciate a little help from Openmoko to provide a working example of routing the audio to/from a BT headset during a call. I think they may need some help from Wolfson to figure it out! As I said there seem to be no equivalent functions in gta02's alsa settings to match the ones in gta01 that were used to switch into BT mode.

GsmBluetooth state file for gta02
I am still trying to get a bluetooth headset to work with the GTA02. I found on the Wiki a pointer to this state file http://opensource.wolfsonmicro.com/~gg/neo1973/gsmbluetooth.state however it is gta01 specific, and around control 51, all the control numbers change as gta02 seems to have an additional control there. So I am slowly going through all the controls from 51 onwards and trying to see what changed between gta01 and gta02. Hopefully at the end I will have a gsmbluetooth.state file that will work with gta02. If someone else has already done this please let me know, as this will be pretty tedious.

Check your AP's firewall is not blocking TCP/IP from the FR, or any other firewall you may have. Also check the routing upstream of your AP and make sure it can route back to the FR.

I am sure they will take care of this issue though, and "do the right thing". When the first batch of gta02 phones were sold, the "Developer only" and "not usable as a primary phone" issues were not well spelled out (if at all), and not spelled out at all on the OM store front. They have done a better job now of informing potential buyers, but there were an awful lot of phones sold initially without that disclaimer. I for one would have waited for GTA03 or later if it had been spelled out, just as I skipped GTA01 because it was well spelled out it was an alpha prototype for developers only. IMHO GTA02 was initially sold as "Ready for end users" or at least "Usable as a primary phone", which turned out to be incorrect. I think the endless discussions on this list are due to that mis perception by many of the people who bought the first batches of GTA02's. I only partially regret my early purchase though. I can afford to have a $400 play toy, it has kept me busy for hours on end trying to get it to work the way I want, however that will change if I can't fix the GSM buzz issue, the way I have been able to fix many of the other issues. -- Jim Morris, http://blog.wolfman.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Qtopia does not currently use frameworkd, do you know if there are plans for qtopis to use it? (I'm not switching to FSO yet) If not can I install ogpsd standalone?

You may need to install gpsd_utils. I'll add some logging so we can see what is going on.

QtGps for Trolltechs Qtopia
Hi, I ported the xgps program from the gpsd dist, to Qtopia (Trolltechs) as there was no GPS there yet and of course no X11 programs run on it. It is still a bit crude, but it works, and lets you at least see if your GPS works or not :) It is for testing like the OM one was for. Attached is the source and binary, if you have Qtopia, just copy the binary qtgps to your FR, and run it from the file manager or terminal. (I'll figure out how to package it soon). Oh you also need to install gpsd (opkg install gpsd). If you have problems let me know, I'll put up a blog entry on how to compile this with Trolltechs toolchain. Basically just qtopiamake, make then copy resulting binary to FR, oh and you need to add the gpsd client library libgps.so to the trolltech toolchain lib.
