RE: Setting Nokia 770 IT2006 bluetooth to "discoverable"

2008-03-20 Thread david feldman

Thanks, Ryan.

I think the problem is I do not know where to look for the bluetooth status 
icon at all. I've never seen one. There is a connection manager (which gives 
control over 802.11 wireless), but nothing along the lines of a status icon. Is 
there a bluetooth status manager I should install? There are command line 
functions (hcid, etc.) that I can manipulate from the xterm program, but I was 
hoping not to have to work at command line level.

Very tks,

Dave

I believe the option you want is "Set [devicename] as Visible" from the 
Bluetooth status icon.  I know it's there in 2007, don't see why it 
wouldn't be in 2006 (and I think I've seen it there)

Setting Nokia 770 IT2006 bluetooth to "discoverable"

2008-03-20 Thread david feldman

Can I set my Nokia 770 (running IT2006) bluetooth to a discoverable state? It 
appears pairing with my Blackberry 8320 to use the 8320 as a modem may require 
that I pair in both directions (I don't know why, but this is what it took to 
get the thing to work with my old HP Jornada 720, and so far I can't get the 
Nokia 770 to use the 8320 as a modem, so I want to try the pairing method.)

Hey, my comment was tongue-in-cheek, however all of my outlets have 
shutter and you have to insert both prongs at once, otherwise they won't 
open, so it's extremely difficult for a child to electrocute even if he 
tries to stick, say, a screwdriver in one of the holes. And if he 
manages that, there's always the main RCD.

Our pugs are actually safer because you can't pull them out by the flex, 
so you don't stress the chord or pull the wires out of the plug. All 
plugs are easily removed though. They just pull out. The switch turns 
off the power when not in use. Otherwise the outlet is live, even with

I can also walk in to any hardware store an buy a replacement plug and

Size is relative. Depends on what you are used to really.

I find US and European outlets scary as heck, because they usually have 
no on/off switch. It's fairly rare to find an outlet int he UK without a 
on/off switch.

The fuse will blow before the fuse in the fusebox at the mains dispatch 
board, so yeah, it does protect the device. This is ignoring any 
internal fuses that might exist in the device to protect US and European 
users ;-)

You are probably comparing Nokia's AC-3 (the "Compact Charger", usually
bundled with mobile phones) and the AC-4 (the "Travel Charger", the one
bundled with all Nokia Internet Tablets).  The AC-3 is smaller, but it
outputs a 2x lower current than the AC-4.  Google provides some
anecdotic evidence that charging the battery with an AC-3 takes twice as
long:

This is all true, but those plugs take up a huge amount of space in
laptop bags...  and the number of times that I've had my equipment
blow up due to grounding problems or power surges is nil.  And a fuse
doesn't protect against voltage spikes.

What I recommend to fellow road warriors, is if you ever go to Japan,
get one of these:

http://www.warrior.co.jp/go-con.htm

(Scroll to the bottom of the page to see pictures of how it can be
configured.)

It takes up a very tiny amount of space in your laptop bag, and it has
a nice safe plastic ground-defeat for the UK plugs which is much safer
than using a toothpick or a screwdriver.  Not available for sale in
the US or EU, probably because the safety bureaucrats would have
apoplectic seizures over the thing, but I've never had a problem using
it in over ten years.

OK, using maemo-pan it works! This is great, I owe you Anidel! Now I
can place calls from my N810 using skype connected through my mobile
:)

Here's how to get it working:

1. Download and install maemo-pan from here:
https://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-pan. The install is farily
straight forward, I didn't come across any dependency issues and the
package is small. maemo-pan is only for OS2008 though.
2. Pair up your phone with your N810 or N800, but don't bother about
the connection wizard that follows.
3. After the install you have a new connection named Bluetooth-PAN.
Select it and connect to the internet. You may have to allow the
connection in your phone and you may have to start network sharing on
your phone.

Here are some more detailed instructions:

https://garage.maemo.org/forum/forum.php?thread_id=2550&forum_id=2213

They are *generally* the same, but there is still a *lot* of variations 
around Europe, even ignoring the earth pin. Some have thicker prongs, 
some have really skinny ones.

UK (and Irish) plugs are completely different. They are far, far safer 
in practice. Each plug has a rated fuse (3, 5 and 13 amps are common in 
various devices.) Our plugs are designed to fail at the plug before 
damaging the appliance. We also have an earth pin on all plugs (though 
some devices don't use it.) This means that we don't have the "my outlet 
has no earth pin" issue that people some times hack around in the US/Europe.

So, what you are advocating is electrocuting yourself if the earth is 
"live" and bypassing the fuse so that you can blow up your device in 
case of a power surge? :-P (yes, I know.. the UK charger has no user  
accessible fuse)

I personally like what Apple did with all it's current chargers. My UK 
iPod charger has a clip on UK plug. My MacBook charger has both the same 
type of plug attachment and also an attachment that gives a long lead 
with a plug on the end. Pure genuis!! I'm pretty sure I could just buy 
the plug replacement for Europe/USA from Apple and not the entire 
charger - this would seem a lot more economical. I could also buy one 
adapter and use it for either iPod or Macbook.

Re: Using a SE W890i as Bluetooth modem (DUN)

2008-03-20 Thread Aniello Del Sorbo
Resending also to the list:

I do have a SE V640i (the Italian Vodafone version of the K630).
I think the issue is the same I had, i.e. the number string.

Maemo uses *99# by default, but I had to specify the CID by hand.
This can be retrieved in two ways:

1) the Data Accounts are listed by CID number, so simply count
2) When viewing a Data Account the CID is reported as "External ID" on my phone.

Once you've got the correct CID number, simply edit the "GPRS"
Connection on your
tablet and replace "*99#" with:

*99***#

For example mine is: *99***5#

Hope this is your issue and this helps.

Now this is something I was hoping for. I was ignorantly unaware of
PAN... And you know the SE phones support it?

I just received a response from SE, it didn't help me, but maybe it
helps you: add a 'Z' to the AT commands for the modem connection in
your N810 (Control Panel -> Connectivity -> Connections: select your
profile, and click edit. Go to the last tab and click advanced and
you'll find the field for adding AT commands.).

I knew I should have abandoned SE after my disastrous experiences with
the P990i...

Anyone on the list that has a working hi-speed 3g modem connection
using a mobile?

My SE K800i is the same. UK Vodafone. Will pair etc, even goes through 
the motions of connecting, but no traffic.

[release] mogg 0.4 - ogg vorbis support for maemo

2008-03-20 Thread Tilman Vogel
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi!

I am happy to announce mogg release 0.4.

mogg integrates a patched-up version of the integer-arithmetic ogg
vorbis decoder plugin into the "maemo" multimedia framework.

This release is the first with support for the N8x0 with IT OS 2008
(Chinook).

Comparison to the other "Ogg Support" project:
Pros: tag support, radio stream support
Cons: no speex, no theora decoders

To give it a try, please go to:

http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mogg/


Notes:

(1) If you had the other "ogg-support" package installed before, and
mogg cannot be installed, try removing "ogg-support" by hand first:

dpkg -r ogg-support

I saw that its post-removal clean-up script sometimes reports an error
without obvious reason, i.e. it helped to just try removing the package
a second time.

(2) Currently, some tags are not recognized by the Media Player, even
though they are correctly reported by the plugin. These include "album",
"track" and "genre". But at least "artist" and "title" are shown
correctly. Even when they change during playback of a radio stream.

(3) Yes, seeking in files works.

(4) This release is currently not available for IT OS 2007 (Bora) and IT
OS 2006 (Mistral) because it doesn't contain any improvements for these
platforms.

Have fun! Feedback appreciated!

Tilman

European (in addition to other countries) Electric Plugs (with
pictures), 
Sockets, Voltages and Frequencies can be found from here.

You can compare voltage and frequency requirements given for your device
to the country specs to check if your device is compatible or not.

Using a SE W890i as Bluetooth modem (DUN)

2008-03-20 Thread Henrik Frisk
Hi,

I've succesfully used my old phone P990i as a bluetooth modem for my
N810. I just received my new phone, a SE W890i but with this I'm not
able to connect. I can pair the two devices and use other Bluetooth
services, just not establish a connection to the internet. As
everything is working with the other phone I suspect the error is in
the phone rather than in the N810, but I figured I'd ask here to see
if someone else has had similar problems. BTW, I have the same service
provider.

cheers,

Henrik
