Yes, Qt Extended has an option to turn off SIM lock... My everyday phone (P900) also has this option. But I was wondering if this feature actually removes the PIN, or just remembers it. So I disabled the SIM lock from my P900 and then moved the SIM card to my FR. The FR did not ask for a PIN, so I guess this means it has been removed. /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

I imagine that there could be a reason for updating these packages in the future also? You're right. It doesn't apply only to a factory-fresh phone, it applies any time dropbear is updated. Hopefully users will recognise this, because it was explained to them in this Quickstart guide. If not we'll need to add an FAQ to the wiki or make the Quickstart explain this better. I dont think it is not a matter of adding more information, it is a matter of removing misleading information... in this case the word 'factory-fresh'. Users will follow the instructions on the 'getting started' page, and then think that this is not a problem in future updates. /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

I would like to make sure I pick the right product in the webshop. From: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GPS Thanks... that helped. Great info on that page. The external antenna for the GPS is an MMCX connector. It is located inside the battery compartment, to the left of the battery, and directly above the SD card. So what you want is a GPS antenna with an MMCX connector. I'm almost certainly sure that this is BS. This probably refers to the internal GPS connector or GSM connector. (Both are on the back) Jette is looking for a external GPS antenna. (on the side) But MMCX is right. I kept my mouth shut because i expected Jette to search the lists himself. I did search last night, but apparently not well enough ... hehe. It's not obvious from my name... but I'm a female ;-) /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

Forget what I just said... The map is working perfectly.. I was zoomed wy out...

Contacts with picture
I successfully imported my contacts - even those containing a picture. A miniature picture shows up in the list (I'm impressed). But, if I click a contact with a picture, the phone jumps back to the front page (the initial screen). This does not happen with contacts with no picture. Anybody else experienced this? /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Factory-fresh phone and dropbear
Hello everybody I got the Freerunner a week ago, and I have done the initial update/upgrade successfully. But I have one question to the information on the wiki: Note that running opkg upgrade on a factory-fresh phone will upgrade dropbear (the ssh software) and various xserver packages, and neither upgrades elegantly while in use, so either upgrade dropbear from the FreeRunner's terminal and then upgrade the rest via ssh, or upgrade the xserver packages via ssh and then upgrade the rest from the FreeRunner's terminal Why does this only apply to a factory-fresh phone? I imagine that there could be a reason for updating these packages in the future also? /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
Flashing Neo FreeRunner
I have a few questions about flashing the phone: 1) Is there a way to tell the version/date of the current image used on the phone? My phone is new, so I have no idea. 2) The page http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util includes a warning that the Dfu-util is broken. The warning does not include a date.. Does it still apply? 3) What is the 'partion name' in this command: ./dfu-util -a (partion name) -R -D (download image file name) The wiki says altsetting of the DFU interface by name or by number but I don't understand what 'altsetting' is? I realize that these are stupid newbie questions... If this is not the right forum to ask these questions, please direct me to the right place. /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
