**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Mar 06 03:00:04 2020 Mar 06 11:38:44 is the cosmo restarting by itself for any one else? Mar 06 11:38:56 i just noticed it restarted on my desk Mar 06 12:17:55 not here Mar 06 12:25:06 nor here Mar 06 12:28:03 haven't noticed Mar 06 12:29:51 :( Mar 06 12:30:15 i could try a factory reset Mar 06 15:53:46 Mine hasn't, I updated to latest v19 firmware Mar 06 15:54:00 waiting on a micro-sd card before I monkey around with multi-boot and linux Mar 06 15:54:39 I'm pleased to note that the keyboard backlight will remain on after setting its intensity Mar 06 15:54:48 and it switches off when you fold it closed, I checked Mar 06 15:54:54 so thats good Mar 06 16:22:10 i have no idea whether the factory reset will fix it but i'll try Mar 06 16:23:37 could it be one of my apps that i've installed? Mar 06 16:25:06 i also removed the ui animations Mar 06 16:26:11 wtf Mar 06 16:26:23 after the reset my mobile data doesn't turn on Mar 06 16:30:10 huh Mar 06 16:30:16 needed to select the preferred sim in settings Mar 06 18:28:50 dTal: i vinyl wrapped my cosmo then put four of those little sticky rubber feet on it (just scrolled up and saw that conversation) Mar 06 18:29:53 also interested to hear about people's experiences with planets repair services.. ive broken my screen and they've quoted me $499 to repair it which seems insane, but id be marginally more happy if i knew they were gonna do it quickly XD Mar 06 18:35:24 That does seem like rather a lot, I suppose a lot of that is labour Mar 06 18:35:39 vinyl wrapped? Mar 06 18:35:47 yeahh Mar 06 18:36:23 the wrap costde me a few £ as obviously for a phone you only need a small bit, its better to take the panels off because you're supposed to hairdry them down, but aside from that its an easy job Mar 06 18:36:57 https://i.imgur.com/4wyZRQk.jpg Mar 06 18:37:20 https://i.imgur.com/WKyAO0v.jpg Mar 06 18:38:24 plus you get to do it in any ridiculous colour you want ^ :D Mar 06 18:39:11 hey that looks awesome Mar 06 18:43:39 im a weird way im excited to peel it off to see the shiny new cosmo underneath (i pretty much did it the week i got it so its still pristine underneath... aside from my broken screen...) Mar 06 19:07:03 weee, cosmo update promises new android version which will improve battery usage on idle: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cosmo-communicator/x/19725808#/updates/all Mar 06 19:09:02 so it will do 10 days in idle like my Gemini? :D Mar 06 19:11:12 I'll be happy if it manages 24hours... Mar 06 19:13:39 yep, in same mode as gemini, my cosmo did 2 days max Mar 06 19:16:33 yeah my cosmo just abot lasts a full day but i leave it in airplane mode quite a lot of the time... would be happy if i didnt have to do that :P Mar 06 19:19:59 im interested to know if the radio activation for linux means bluetooth will work too, that'd be cool Mar 06 21:29:27 I find the cosmo lasts a day pretty easily but I keep the cover display off at all times. Mar 06 21:38:38 i do for the most part Mar 06 21:38:51 its usually at 10-20% by the time im lay in bed with it charging Mar 06 22:00:47 Looks like we will also get to use mobile usage in linux Mar 06 22:01:25 which will mean we can use the cosmo as a linux phone. Mar 06 22:05:01 yeepp, though did they ever really get voice/SMS working fully on the gemini? i know you could do it via terminal commands but did it ring/notify you on new calls/messages? Mar 06 22:05:27 doesnt really bother me as the huge majority of message/voicecalls i do is via facebook messenger so all i need is a data connection, but still curious :D Mar 06 22:08:48 I know that data worked for the gemini. I never used my gemini to make calls as I only had a data sim. I did ring the sim a couple of time and it rang but I never picked the call up. Mar 06 22:09:18 fair enough Mar 06 22:10:21 my main thing now is bluetooth (for the debian install)... also if we're going to be making calls (even via VOIP rather than cellular) does holding it like a normal phone work, or do i have to use a headset? Mar 06 22:10:23 * Acou_Bass tests Mar 06 22:22:02 We will have to see Mar 06 22:39:23 i gave it a quick test and couldnt actually get any sound at all from the web browser Mar 06 22:43:23 but my buddy could hear me via the mic, so something's working **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Mar 07 03:03:04 2020
