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

Re: Partitioning SD card for Android
If your SIM card does not require PIN entry, Android shoud work; that's the only problem I had with the Koolu beta7 distro... so I had to go for something else.

Re: Partitioning SD card for Android
I think Qt Extended is working, and I know for sure that Qtmoko (a fork of QtE) does SIM PIN authentication well. As for being based on FSO, I don't know.

I was planning on sticking with uboot since the wiki tells me that Qi can give problems.. On the other hand, the uboot modification for kernels 2MB seems tricky, and the Qi way seems much simpler. Can you recommend Qi? /Jette ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
