Jun 24 03:26:24 didn't take long for chinese knockoffs Jun 24 03:26:26 Well - I'll let you guess on that one. Jun 24 03:26:35 fake Jun 24 03:27:34 Well considering it has pics of at least 2 different phones listed, yea Ill go with fake trying to rip you off;) Jun 24 03:27:35 nah, not a Nokla Jun 24 03:27:40 surprising that chinese symbian knockoffs work as good as the real symbian Jun 24 03:27:45 it's quite clearly spelled "Nokia" Jun 24 03:28:14 hehe Jun 24 03:28:19 with a DROID 2 knockoff design Jun 24 03:38:26 moo Jun 24 03:40:57 moo Jun 24 03:41:15 Doc: heard of anyone unpacking that M6 root filesystem? Jun 24 03:45:10 hmm, i don't think rootfs.lzo is a ubifs dump a la m5 root Jun 24 04:02:01 Hurrian: not yet, other than on device ;-) Jun 24 04:04:26 wmarone_: are you sure about the spelling? seen several Nokla phones ;-P Jun 24 04:04:53 Doc: this lzo file sure is odd Jun 24 04:05:26 after forcibly adding the magic i get header corrupted Jun 24 04:05:36 mmm, let's try prepending the magic instead Jun 24 04:09:25 good morning Jun 24 04:09:30 is it 1gb physical ram on n9? Jun 24 04:09:43 opdf2, AFAIK yes Jun 24 04:10:14 meego multitask looks awesome Jun 24 04:11:10 is it me or am I spending far too much time hunting down every N9 teaser video and watching them over and over again! How sad! :-) Jun 24 04:13:30 i really hope there's room for 4 great OSes Jun 24 04:14:02 dymaxion:  you saw gsmarena's first look? Jun 24 04:14:40 yep... I can't wait to get one.. hopefully in HK they will bring em out early... I'll be straight down the Nokia store to play :-) Jun 24 04:15:05 too bad they closed Nokia flagships stores in usa Jun 24 04:15:12 really.. that's a shame... Jun 24 04:15:20 in Asia they still have very strong brand Jun 24 04:16:15 it's a shame ppl have been moving to HTC etc... my other half has a Sony Experia arc, and I've got a temporary (HTC Aria) broken... poor call quality , poor build.. Jun 24 04:16:57 after a while the OS gets completely boring and cameras always disappoint... bring on the N9... ! (Unfortuantely my N8 died after 4 months) Jun 24 04:18:22 dead N8 <--- was my own fault... trying to use Maps, lost on a mountain during a tropical rainstorm which was more like a power-shower! :-) Jun 24 04:18:34 loving the pentaband umts Jun 24 04:18:48 need to see more pentaband devices Jun 24 04:18:56 yep... I get frustrated that Nokia don't market that aspect Jun 24 04:19:35 in fact they are rubbish at marketing their best features... if only they have Jobs' hypnotic presentations... Jun 24 04:20:20 waching marko Ahtisaari's presentation was a bit painful... so many long pauses, dead pan face etc. Jun 24 04:21:58 yeah Apple's foray into physical retail store space is astounding Jun 24 04:22:13 something Sony and Nokia have tried and failed in america Jun 24 04:22:30 Nokia deserves better marketing soo badly Jun 24 04:22:42 would it be fair to say there's a bit of "home" support because Apple is US company? Jun 24 04:23:08 yes Jun 24 04:23:46 its hard to change the usa's state of mind on Nokia.. the brand is recognized as cheap in usa Jun 24 04:24:01 I think the US mentality is very different from Europe... I'm from UK originally, and we find American marketing lacking subtlety, and too many superlatives on matters of to little substance Jun 24 04:24:50 americans are easily subdued by marketing tricks Jun 24 04:25:04 and the reason is that US carriers have always controlled Nokia, not allowing their top phones on the market etc unless on punitive contact terms for Nokia.. I find it strange that ppl in the USA don't realise how far behind (mobile networks) they are vs rest of Europe/Asia Jun 24 04:25:18 you seem to be immune! :-) Jun 24 04:26:00 lzop: rootfs.lzo: you need a newer version of lzop Jun 24 04:26:05 uuuuuuuuuugh Jun 24 04:26:59 unfortunately i dont see N9 succeeding in usa unless subsidized Jun 24 04:28:05 jeez even then, i dont think anyone can break iphone's hypnotic powers Jun 24 04:29:00 only major carriers that carry the iphone can survive in usa Jun 24 04:29:16 why do people love the iphone? Jun 24 04:29:16 yes it drives me mad... ppl using the iphone camera and thinking it's the best thing on the planet, or wondering why reception is bad and blaming the network, but I stand next to them with my N8 and no problem... etc. Jun 24 04:29:27 =((( Jun 24 04:29:54 it's extremely overpriced, the camera is the shittiest 5MP i've ever seen, battery life is meh, and the screen has terrible viewing angles Jun 24 04:30:03 then I see low light photos on the iphone... and it's rubbish... i have done a lot of photos on my other half's Experia Arc... again worlds apart... hypnotised :-( Jun 24 04:30:23 majority of people don't care about all that Jun 24 04:30:37 yes viewing angles... ppl would care if they realised! Jun 24 04:30:51 they get annoyed and think it's normal... Jun 24 04:31:18 ios is monkey easy to use, smooth, streamlined experience...and the hardware is a fashion accessory Jun 24 04:31:38 + marketing is no fail Jun 24 04:31:44 I wonder about the software stack on N9 though.. whether meego allows deep linking between apps as Mango has... I think inter-woven apps is key to a functional OS Jun 24 04:32:18 mango is great too... i dont want to see duopoly os Jun 24 04:32:31 reminds me of the iFruitphone in GTA IV: no buttons, no reception, no storage capacity, all ego Jun 24 04:32:44 actually, i cant believe they predicted "no reception" right Jun 24 04:32:58 also iOS clever lock in.... proprietary connectors... ! my mates have spend hundreds of pounds on accessories... docks, speakers etc.. don't want to move away from iOS cos that will all be wasted Jun 24 04:33:36 then charged to license use of the proprietary connectors... Jun 24 04:33:53 herp da dee derp, i love laughing at people who bought expensive-ass Bose docks way back when and now on the iphone, they're "unauthorized accessories" Jun 24 04:34:04 does anyone still remember what a 3.5 is? Jun 24 04:43:52 lzop: rootfs.lzo: header corrupted (checksum error) Jun 24 04:43:58 rrrrrrraaaaaaage Jun 24 06:06:48 LOL Jun 24 06:08:15 * SpeedEvil fails at lollery. Jun 24 06:08:19 Also sleep.

Jun 24 08:48:48 Its just basically an empty cpp file Jun 24 08:49:23 lol Jun 24 08:49:36 wrong type of runtime libs Jun 24 08:49:39 ? Jun 24 08:50:05 well I am running the standard N900 install fully updated Jun 24 08:51:38 arm ELF on x86? Jun 24 08:51:55 ARM Jun 24 08:52:03 this is an ARM ELF running on my N900 Jun 24 08:52:16 doublecheck Jun 24 08:52:21 its definatly ARM Jun 24 08:52:26 since gcc -v says its ARM Jun 24 08:52:34 hmm Jun 24 08:52:40 and since scratchbox says "FREMANTLE_ARMEL" Jun 24 08:52:46 I'd use file nevertheless Jun 24 08:53:12 also strace should usually help a lot, no? Jun 24 08:53:42 It's much more fun if you have a binary compiled for the wrong libc. Jun 24 08:53:47 even gdb if nothing else Jun 24 08:53:55 then you can try to run it and it will say 'File not found' Jun 24 08:53:56 file says "ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.14, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped Jun 24 08:54:04 dm8tbr: that's what I meant Jun 24 08:54:53 where do I get strace for the N900?

Jun 24 09:19:03 04Bug https://bugs.maemo.org/8347 Cell Broadcast Feature not available Jun 24 09:28:00 lardman: I didn't get a chance to expand on it last night. Jun 24 09:28:23 lardman: Instead I was busy trying to build a Harmattan app for qgil to run :) Jun 24 09:29:04 Jaffa: no worries Jun 24 09:29:48 I'm going to try some coding this weekend, assuming I can set up the SDK off line Jun 24 09:35:10 Harmattan SDK installer is an online installer Jun 24 09:35:47 There are manual setup steps Jun 24 09:37:21 where? Jun 24 09:37:24 There better be, otherwise I will rage Jun 24 09:37:25 :p Jun 24 09:39:50 Yaahooo: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Blogs/blog/kate-alholas-forum-nokia-blog/2011/06/23/nokia-meego-1.2-harmattan-qt-quick-components Jun 24 09:42:20 urgh, online, that's a pita Jun 24 09:42:34 it's Python though, so I guess I could download the components and do an offline install Jun 24 09:42:50 or I can curse TalkTalk for not getting on with my phone line + broadband Jun 24 09:43:18 http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Harmattan:Platform_Guide/Troubleshooting_Harmattan_Platform_SDK/Installing_Harmattan_Platform_SDK_manually Jun 24 09:43:24 That should be it Jun 24 09:44:30 RST38h: Fantastic news isn't it, on Qt Quick Components :-) Jun 24 09:46:19 The only problem I had getting the Harmattan SDK going was that Gentoo is missing a package for scratchbox-devkit-hashutils-squeeze-sdk Jun 24 09:47:51 Jaffa, thoughts on QML and Qt components? Jun 24 09:48:13 before I start rewriting Sociality :p Jun 24 09:49:53 Jaffa: It is Jun 24 09:50:07 Jaffa: The whole thing has a sense of finality to it though Jun 24 09:51:27 thanks jonwil Jun 24 09:52:33 Meanwhile: http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/24/nokias-android-flirtations-revealed/ Jun 24 09:53:46 * lardman heads off to Bristol for the day, see you all later Jun 24 09:56:58 MohammadAG: QML good. Qt Components - API looks good, but not tried using in anger yet. Jun 24 09:59:45 so should I make the switch for Harmattan? Jun 24 10:02:59 yay figured out how to restart X Jun 24 10:03:53 I wish I could get this thing to properly debug libcsd-sms.so or libsms.so Jun 24 10:08:20 if I could single step the code in libsms or libcsd-sms, I would have this licked no problems Jun 24 10:12:42 Have anyone seen the Boost libraries build for Maemo? Jun 24 10:15:28 Meegotouch applications by default have a home and back button. When using the "blanco" (n9) theme, the back button is hidden and the toolbar moves to bottom. Does the same behaviour also apply to the qml-components or do I manually have to find out whether I should place the toolbar on top or bottom and create/hide specific buttons? Jun 24 10:19:11 I'm also interested in that Jun 24 10:20:10 divan: in Extras, even multiple version Jun 24 10:20:20 s Jun 24 10:21:34 MohammadAG: until you didn't have need for advanced text manipulation ... qml is not too bad Jun 24 10:23:05 MohammadAG: also be carreful to not load use qml native component for loading things. The user agent isn't properly set and so it s didn't work on 3G with many phone isp Jun 24 10:23:36 khertan, you mean QWebView in QML? Jun 24 10:23:51 MohammadAG: http://gitorious.org/maenews <- works on wifi, not over 3G Jun 24 10:24:53 MohammadAG: qwebview, XmlListModel, and everything that made call to a QNetworkFactory Jun 24 10:25:45 what if I use C++ for the backend and QML for the UI? Jun 24 10:26:01 MohammadAG: it ll be fix quickly, it s a well know bug Jun 24 10:26:40 MohammadAG: it ll be ok as you can set the useragent in the qnetworkfactory qnetworkrequest in c++ Jun 24 10:30:42 by the way: Is there a way that ListView etc. completely load the model instead of creating delegates while scrolling? (For scrollbar reasons) Jun 24 10:32:25 gri, not sure but I think qmltube does it Jun 24 10:33:50 MohammadAG: I'll take a look at that, not sure if it only creates a flickable and stacks the items or something like that Jun 24 10:34:24 bah, I cant get this working Jun 24 10:37:02 I cant get the debugger to stop on the function I want it to stop on Jun 24 10:37:06 so I can see whats going on with this code Jun 24 10:37:11 and what the numbers look like :( Jun 24 10:55:53 bah I give up Jun 24 10:56:11 ( I think I might have a solution to bug 8347...) what? really? Jun 24 10:56:13 04Bug https://bugs.maemo.org/8347 Cell Broadcast Feature not available Jun 24 10:56:23 If I could just get the debugger to stop on sms_gsm_cb_routing_ntf I might be able to see whats going on Jun 24 10:57:03 If I can debug the .asm for it I can verify my theories of how the data looks Jun 24 10:57:15 and can see if in fact my potential fix idea is fesable Jun 24 10:59:06 hmm, why doesn't gdb work? Jun 24 10:59:56 It's supposed to stop at breakpoints you've set Jun 24 11:00:13 The problem I have is that libcsd-sms.so (and hence libsms.so) is loaded dynamically Jun 24 11:00:19 so its hard to get GDB to stop on it Jun 24 11:00:21 of course I guess debugging .so is a bit more tricky Jun 24 11:00:51 indeed, you'd need to debug the process that loads the .so Jun 24 11:02:07 aha, I have an idea Jun 24 11:02:39 so do I, get some golf clubs and meet me on the roof in 20 minutes. Jun 24 11:03:50 those not interested in golf can meet me in the beergarden down the street in 5 min Jun 24 11:15:03 finally, I have what should be a breakpoint where I want it Jun 24 11:23:35 ok, I think I know whats going on Jun 24 11:38:14 Whats the correct command for apt-get to say "I dont care what version I have, re-download it anyway"? Jun 24 11:38:35 apt-get install --reinstall ? Jun 24 11:38:45 thanks Jun 24 11:38:47 thats what I needed Jun 24 11:38:53 nw Jun 24 11:38:57 now I can be sure my libcsd-sms.so file isn't busted Jun 24 11:45:17 ok, I now have a proper libsms.so with my one byte change in place Jun 24 11:46:42 now I just need the tower to send me another CBSMS Jun 24 11:51:12 ok, NOW the tower decides not to send me a CBSMS Jun 24 12:05:52 one more CBSMS and I can verify that my fix is the right solution at this point Jun 24 12:10:33 Thankyou to nokia for harmattanbeta\libsms0_i386.deb for letting me see how the CBS code works on harmattan and that my fix for Maemo is on the right track :) Jun 24 12:11:57 I just hope all this starting and stopping of CSD isn't putting my phone at risk somehow Jun 24 12:15:10 If I could find out how to decode a CBSMS or the SMS alphabet, I could verify that what dbus just sent my dbus test program is correct Jun 24 12:25:41 what fix are you working on? Jun 24 12:25:53 bug 8347 Jun 24 12:25:54 04Bug https://bugs.maemo.org/8347 Cell Broadcast Feature not available Jun 24 12:26:09 I have a dump of what should be a cell broadcast SMS Jun 24 12:26:20 but I need some code or something to decode the actual message to see if its valid Jun 24 12:26:30 i.e. if the data decodes to a valid looking string Jun 24 12:45:00 jonwil: have you looked at the osmocom or whatever the acronym mailing listsl?/ Jun 24 12:45:16 currently playing with some ofono code Jun 24 12:48:49 * khertan currently playing ... hum not ... qml isn't funny ...

Jun 24 12:50:09 open source base station project Jun 24 12:51:03 ok, ofono test code is correct Jun 24 12:52:27 I see output of EastVicPark which seems to be correct Jun 24 12:52:52 that reflects a suburb near where I live which I assume is the nearest Optus GSM tower Jun 24 12:52:54 :) Jun 24 12:53:02 or the one that the phone has decided to talk to anyway Jun 24 12:53:16 You took a break from this? Jun 24 12:53:24 yes I took a break for a while Jun 24 12:54:02 it was only yesterday when I started playing with harmattan-beta-SDK and specifically the libsms0 i386 package that was included Jun 24 12:54:10 Ah Jun 24 12:54:38 Tried applying for harmattan dev? Jun 24 12:55:06 nope, not interested in harmattan Jun 24 12:55:10 interested in maemo Jun 24 12:55:13 fremantle Jun 24 12:55:15 since thats what my hardware runs Jun 24 12:55:40 only value of harmattan-beta-sdk is info to help with understanding fremantle Jun 24 12:55:43 I was meaning for hw. Jun 24 12:55:47 but yes. Jun 24 12:55:56 I dont want or need new hardware :) Jun 24 12:55:58 Still keeping my n900 for a while. Jun 24 12:56:13 of note is that harmattan SDK contains libbmeipc-dev package for harmattan version of bme/libbmeipc Jun 24 12:56:53 Wondering, as in principle your skillz might be useful for n950/n9/ Jun 24 12:57:23 jonwil: think of it two time ... as many have problem with sim recognition in their n900 Jun 24 12:57:30 is meego going to be community supported like maemo ? Jun 24 12:57:36 i doubt mine used all days will last for 1 more year Jun 24 12:57:56 xd13: Meego - yes. Jun 24 12:57:57 xd13: there is already a community edition for n900 :) Jun 24 12:58:07 xd13: Harmattan - that's another question Jun 24 12:58:12 huh Jun 24 12:58:16 isn't meego harmattan ? Jun 24 12:58:23 i thought it was one word Jun 24 12:58:26 there is more chance of a MeeGo community edition ... than maemo harmattan and fremantle Jun 24 12:58:33 Harmattan is meego in some ways. Jun 24 12:58:41 chances are i will b buying n9 Jun 24 12:58:47 Harmattan forked from meego 12 monthsish ago Jun 24 12:58:57 SpeedEvil: oh ... really ? Jun 24 12:59:03 it s 1.2 ? Jun 24 12:59:04 yes. Jun 24 12:59:35 It's a mash of meego + maemo components. Jun 24 12:59:38 hum ... oh it could be 1.2, as it was forked 12 month ago ... Jun 24 12:59:38 :( Jun 24 13:00:04 khertan: it is 1.2 upwards Jun 24 13:00:31 after 1.3 they moved most devel people to it Jun 24 13:00:37 From looking at the SDK, most of the lower level bits are still the closed-source Maemo bits Jun 24 13:00:42 or was it 1.2 already? Jun 24 13:00:43 all i know is depending on the price of the n9 when it comes out i'll either wait for a price drop or purchase Jun 24 13:00:45 cell stack for example Jun 24 13:00:48 jonwil: Indeed. Jun 24 13:01:17 Give me an N9 with the keyboard and touchscreen of the N900 (stylus included) and sell it at retail and I will be VERY interested Jun 24 13:01:39 jonwil: n950 devel is it Jun 24 13:01:42 jonwil: An open n9 with perhaps a reverse engineered security framework and android... Jun 24 13:01:50 alien-android Jun 24 13:01:58 n950 man they rly need 2 put that out for people 2 purchase Jun 24 13:02:02 RE security framework? why so? Jun 24 13:02:04 sadly we wont see any resistive screens any time soon again Jun 24 13:02:04 xd13: ++ Jun 24 13:02:12 the keyboard is important. the n900 is the smallest netbook i've ever seen; phone calls are a bonus Jun 24 13:02:16 jonwil: welcome to the club Jun 24 13:02:26 BCMM: +1 Jun 24 13:02:28 keyboard is essential Jun 24 13:02:29 The N950 is good for dev but no good as a daily use phone Jun 24 13:02:33 Corsac: Well - I'm going off some of Doc's comments - I haven't investigated exactly how the scurity framework will work. Jun 24 13:02:37 jonwil: ? Jun 24 13:02:38 jonwil: ? Jun 24 13:02:39 i don't know, if n900 didn't have phone capability i would probably have an android phone right now and no n900 Jun 24 13:03:00 jonwil wut y not? Jun 24 13:03:00 Doc doesn't have a clue about security, the only thing he sees is DRM Jun 24 13:03:00 jonwil: I don't personally see why. Jun 24 13:03:03 * khertan think that MeeGo community edition is better and better Jun 24 13:03:18 I mean that because its not possible to replace, if you use it as a daily phone and its damaged, stolen or otherwise has problems, you are in trouble Jun 24 13:03:20 * khertan will probably not switch to android ... due to poor python support Jun 24 13:03:21 * SpeedEvil needs to try installing meego CE Jun 24 13:03:40 thats y u need to take care of ur phone Jun 24 13:03:44 yeah I do take care Jun 24 13:03:47 i've had n900 since its rls in 2009 Jun 24 13:03:50 but things happen beyond my control Jun 24 13:03:50 khertan: I don't mean switching to android - I mean to be able to run externals Jun 24 13:03:52 jonwil: Ah Jun 24 13:03:53 its in mint condition right now Jun 24 13:04:06 i never put a screen protector on it so a few slight marks but except for that perfect Jun 24 13:04:09 khertan: python... what about uploading your personal data to google... Jun 24 13:04:12 xd13: You can take care of the phone, and it can still develop wierd faults. Jun 24 13:04:18 very true Jun 24 13:04:22 Also - the hinge looks damn fragile to me. Jun 24 13:04:27 but n900 has been like a godsend to me Jun 24 13:04:30 Can anyone comment on how the hinge feels? Jun 24 13:04:40 mine was dropped three from 1,5 meter on floor without impact :) Jun 24 13:05:01 as much as i love a keyboard i'm thinking if i could get used to on screen buttons...........i will miss the keyboardi think Jun 24 13:05:08 * khertan think n900 will be the perfect device with more ram and larger screen Jun 24 13:05:14 exactly what is n950 Jun 24 13:05:21 ya Jun 24 13:05:24 and better screen Jun 24 13:05:36 http://wiki.maemo.org/N950 Jun 24 13:05:37 n900 screen is pretty good Jun 24 13:05:41 See that - for diffenences Jun 24 13:06:33 can someone explain to me tft and olded so i don't have 2 look it up, i rly should know it but i don't Jun 24 13:06:38 and which is better Jun 24 13:06:41 non-Zeiss f/2.2, 28mm focal kength, 10cm to inf. focus <<< so this is why they abandon it ! Jun 24 13:06:46 OLED is LED based Jun 24 13:06:58 khertan: ? Jun 24 13:07:18 SpeedEvil: speculation Jun 24 13:07:21 It emits light. It is more efficient at low amounts of white on screen Jun 24 13:07:36 khertan: Yes - I'm failing to parse that as a sentance with meaning Jun 24 13:07:47 is one better than the other or r there good/bad to both sides ? Jun 24 13:07:52 Due to the use of different display technologies, on the N9, developers should avoid one pixel width fonts(?) and graphical objects with lines one pixel wide. Also avoid the extensive use of bright colors, especially white, when developing for OLED displays as this increases the power consumption (typical for OLED displays). Jun 24 13:08:15 SpeedEvil, Jun 24 13:09:02 single pixel use is tricky to use in a ux that involves scaling Jun 24 13:09:13 and also smudges muchly Jun 24 13:09:16 when you AA it Jun 24 13:09:41 It's not that simple. Jun 24 13:09:53 If you're doing AA, you need to know the hardware layout, and deal with it Jun 24 13:10:02 ok, so should I post my Cell Broadcast SMS findings to the mailing list? Jun 24 13:10:10 Any arrangement that attempts to do AA without knowuing the pixel orientation and setup fails hard Jun 24 13:10:19 aa ? Jun 24 13:10:27 Anti-Aliasing Jun 24 13:10:31 ah Jun 24 13:10:50 SpeedEvil, of course Jun 24 13:10:56 but I did some testing earlier this yyear Jun 24 13:10:57 ok, will post to the mailing list then Jun 24 13:11:05 and was very vocal about the issues of lines Jun 24 13:11:08 SpeedEvil: surely it's OK provided you don't attempt subpixel hinting? Jun 24 13:11:23 (which is a recipe for ugly and headaches anyway) Jun 24 13:11:42 wut r the chances nokia is just teasing us about n950 ? Jun 24 13:14:26 SpeedEvil, single thickness clock: http://liqbase.net/liq.20110313_051154.ciroclock.scr.png then panned onto a "desktop" http://liqbase.net/liq.20110320_032054.liqbase-playground.scr.png then the fremantle same http://liqbase.net/Screenshot-20110314-225450.png Jun 24 13:14:54 SpeedEvil, unless realtime rendering of single thickness lines can be done everywhere their recommendation is right. Jun 24 13:15:08 They can't. Jun 24 13:15:49 I was meaning that 'AA' - can make thins much worse if you just try to pretend it's a simple triplet display. Jun 24 13:17:31 SpeedEvil, http://alienryderflex.com/sub_pixel/ Jun 24 13:20:36 err - no Jun 24 13:20:56 we need to get people not to buy N9s... Jun 24 13:20:59 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PenTile_Matrix_Family Jun 24 13:21:07 see, i don't know if my eyes are weird or what, but i see obvious coloured fringes in the subpixel example Jun 24 13:21:12 and it's horrible Jun 24 13:21:13 what is nfc ? Jun 24 13:21:23 near field communications Jun 24 13:21:28 which is ? Jun 24 13:21:33 payment method Jun 24 13:21:53 oh wow that thing Jun 24 13:22:07 saying it's a payment method isn't exactly right :p Jun 24 13:22:19 its a chip that can do what the name sais, prolly used for payment and other things Jun 24 13:22:24 nfc is rfid on steroids Jun 24 13:22:31 and it's just that Jun 24 13:22:35 MohammadAG: yeah but for users it is just that Jun 24 13:22:50 if you want payments, that's a protocol on top of that involving smart-card chips etc Jun 24 13:22:56 dm8tbr: growing muscels? Jun 24 13:23:04 don't need it Jun 24 13:23:04 or breasts? Jun 24 13:23:08 nope Jun 24 13:23:15 the N9 can pair bluetooth devices with NFC Jun 24 13:23:19 or send photos Jun 24 13:23:22 chem|st: making it think it's stronger than it is ;) Jun 24 13:23:27 devs can use it to send crap Jun 24 13:23:49 does the n9 have nfc with secure element? Jun 24 13:23:52 MohammadAG: yeah it is another BT only working on close range Jun 24 13:24:19 nfc is said to do the same as BT was said... Jun 24 13:24:37 but more secure in some way Jun 24 13:24:56 chem|st: BT can be read at a hundred meters easily Jun 24 13:25:02 this may not be desirable for NFC Jun 24 13:25:55 any short-range thing can probably be done at longer ranges if you have a directional antenna and no respect for following spec Jun 24 13:26:06 NFC is near-field. Jun 24 13:26:18 It drops off as 1/r^4, not 1/r^2 Jun 24 13:26:45 So at 10 times the range, the signal is down 10000 times, not 100. Jun 24 13:26:55 they made a special EM signal? Jun 24 13:27:08 It's M, not E Jun 24 13:27:35 SpeedEvil: it might couple into objects in the near field though and if your're lucky/unlucky they are resonant... Jun 24 13:27:47 yes Jun 24 13:28:00 Simplifying a lot for those that don't understand. Jun 24 13:28:04 SpeedEvil: the capabilities payment, data transfer, doorlocks Jun 24 13:28:28 Depending on stuff. Jun 24 13:28:32 you can be much more inventive with nfc than that though Jun 24 13:28:46 SpeedEvil: not talking about hardware though Jun 24 13:28:48 NFC has a lot of meanings to a lot of people, and the devices do not always interoperate Jun 24 13:28:55 putting my phone on my bedside table and having it go auto silent for the night would be far more useful Jun 24 13:29:02 only takes an nfc sticker on the table Jun 24 13:29:24 And for the NFC 'reader' to be very low power and active continuously. Jun 24 13:29:29 Something that I question. Jun 24 13:35:46 What makes NFC different to all those transit cards or office door cards that already exist? Jun 24 13:36:11 other than being built into a phone Jun 24 13:36:14 jonwil: you can influence the data. Jun 24 13:36:15 instead of being a separate card Jun 24 13:36:34 jonwil: It's a reader too Jun 24 13:36:39 oh nice Jun 24 13:37:32 I suspect in practice 'our'a ccess to it will be very strongly limited for seciruty reasons. Jun 24 13:37:54 I posted all my Cell Broadcast SMS stuff to the devel mailing list Jun 24 13:39:13 Meanwhile: A Russian woman died of a heart attack at her own funeral, after waking up to find praying mourners filing past her coffin. Jun 24 13:39:48 In the future I also have to put a NFC sticker at my cat when the rfid chip gets old? :D Jun 24 13:40:16 I look forward to a day when I can pay someone else money right then and there with a card, no need to worry about having to find an ATM to get cash from or hoping the other guy has an expensive merchant account with Visa or MasterCard Jun 24 13:40:20 no particular reason to Jun 24 13:40:33 for purely identifying a chip, nfc has no benefits over rfid Jun 24 13:40:38 jonwil: As I understand it the NFC payments thing is _not_ peer-peer Jun 24 13:42:09 I guess I was thinking of something like Square for iPhone only using the NFC reader already in the phone Jun 24 13:42:46 and someone finding a way to convince the credit card companies to support it without the need to spend huge bucks on expensive merchant account annual fees etc Jun 24 13:43:15 but I doubt the credit card companies want to make it easier for Joe Blogs to accept credit cards, the risks are too big Jun 24 13:43:26 After all, Joe Blogs might really be Joe the fraudster Jun 24 13:43:46 that would be possible with debit cards, but no way credit cards are going to take the risks on reversible transactions Jun 24 13:44:46 anyhow, this is a moot point right now as the N900 sitting in front of me has no NFC :P Jun 24 13:45:10 and I have no need to be able to accept payment from random people in this way Jun 24 13:45:36 device location aspects of nfc are way more interesting to me anyway Jun 24 13:46:44 I think using NFC as a security device has possibilities, i.e. instead of using your keys to get inside your house, you swipe your phone over the reader and the door unlocks. Jun 24 13:47:20 Although given that there have been alternatives to standard keys for years and very few houses use them, I doubt that's a big market Jun 24 13:47:46 the problem is that door unlocks with alternative methods generally also have a key for backup Jun 24 13:48:05 which makes the alternative method kind of redundant as the lock may as well not have it and remain just as pickable Jun 24 13:48:44 Personally I would err on the side of security and not have key backup at all Jun 24 13:49:10 most people dont like, for example, being locked in/out of their house if there's a power cut though Jun 24 13:49:16 or if the reader breaks Jun 24 13:49:19 or if their phone breaks Jun 24 13:49:20 Thats why you power the lock with both batteries and mains Jun 24 13:49:21 etc Jun 24 13:49:27 If the mains goes off, the batteries kick in Jun 24 13:49:45 Is there any QtDesigner/Creator plugins for Maemo-specific widgets(like Maemo5ValueButton)? Jun 24 13:49:49 and how long's the battery last? my keyed lock can last through an infinite-length power outage Jun 24 13:50:16 You can also have an external plug where you can connect standard off-the-shelf batteries in case of emergency Jun 24 13:50:56 you're then introducing weaknesses into the lock and housing Jun 24 13:51:04 true Jun 24 13:51:32 but ultimatly if you want more security than a standard keyed lock, you have to give up something somewhere Jun 24 13:51:45 jonwil: The other issue is that what happens if the n9 battery dies Jun 24 13:51:51 Thats a good point Jun 24 13:52:09 swipey card locks and similar are great for looking fancy, but theyre generally shitty for actual security because theyre either bypassable by design or risk being unopenable with failures either in the lock or device unlocking it Jun 24 13:53:08 swipe card locks are best in environments where you need to give a bunch of different people keys and you want auditing and logging Jun 24 13:53:23 hence why office buildings use them Jun 24 13:53:26 and hotels use them Jun 24 13:54:00 another key reason places like them use them though is there're people on hand if the lock suddenly doesnt work for any reason Jun 24 13:54:05 And they are also generally perfect for unlocking doors with a credit card pushed into the gap between the door and the frame Jun 24 13:54:19 where if you come home at 3am for a night out and the lock fails you're shit out of luck Jun 24 13:55:59 this building errs on the side of caution with it's rfid entry doors, it has several that relevant fobs will work on and uses magnetic locks Jun 24 13:56:08 the downside ofc being powercut = doors all unlocked Jun 24 13:57:43 Auto-open-on-powercut tends to be mandated for safety reasons Jun 24 13:57:53 (15:48:46) SpeedEvil: jonwil: The other issue is that what happens if the n9 battery dies <<< nfc can work without battery Jun 24 13:58:03 although auto-open-on-fire-alarm also seems to be mandated Jun 24 13:58:04 precisely, but on a house it equals a great way to bypass the lock :P Jun 24 13:58:13 khertan: yes, it can. Jun 24 13:58:26 khertan: The question is - what does it do without power - implementations vary. Jun 24 13:58:59 khertan: Does it rely on a back-end to do the right thing - for example pair with bliuetooth speakers, or open your door, with the NFC chip being a dumb radio. Jun 24 13:59:12 * khertan would love to see device with digital print reader for unlocking (but which work fast) Jun 24 13:59:16 Or are there smarts in the NFC chip that are able to do stuff independantly. Jun 24 13:59:29 Capacitive screen with resolution to read prints. Jun 24 13:59:37 khertan: Also - iris recognition Jun 24 13:59:57 The mythbusters busted fingerprint scanners as a security idea Jun 24 14:00:10 although iris recognition works Jun 24 14:00:13 iris will be unusable in sun light condition and pretty slow Jun 24 14:00:28 voice recognition could work Jun 24 14:00:42 jonwil: fingerprint is still better than putting dumb four number code Jun 24 14:00:44 khertan: It's not slow Jun 24 14:00:57 SpeedEvil: i mean on an mobile phone Jun 24 14:01:05 besh security... something you have, something you are and something you know Jun 24 14:01:12 khertan: ah - yes - you do need to move the camera to the eye Jun 24 14:01:16 ruskie: naah. Jun 24 14:01:22 ruskie: There is _much_ better than that. Jun 24 14:01:32 Something you have, something you are, and something you don't know. Jun 24 14:01:35 * khertan want an integrated stungun Jun 24 14:02:06 * ruskie wants a tazer that looks like a phone he can hand off to a mugger and arm it in the process... Jun 24 14:02:08 so someone still your phone ... and detect then thief aren't the trusted user ... and stun it Jun 24 14:02:53 tbh, im happy that the n9 does at least come with theft tracking software Jun 24 14:02:55 and i also an api to activated it to stupid user saying that khweeteur sucks because it s not done in qml Jun 24 14:03:06 nid0: ? there is on ? Jun 24 14:03:13 s/on/one ? Jun 24 14:03:25 yeah, theres a piece of software in the included software list called "track and locate" or sth Jun 24 14:03:44 jonwil: WHO? it's been German CCC Jun 24 14:03:47 Key applications: Facebook, Twitter, Skype, Joikuspot Wi-Fi tethering, Accuweather, AP News, Swype, Track and Protect, Galaxy on Fire 2, Real Golf, Angry Birds Magic, Mail, video player, Drive, Feeds, search, calculator, Calendar, Contacts, music player, web browser, messaging, photos, photo editor, Ovi Store, Maps Jun 24 14:03:50 not mythbusters Jun 24 14:03:52 "track and protect" Jun 24 14:04:13 DocScrutinizer, could have been both Jun 24 14:04:18 Mythbusters busted fingerprint readers in one episode Jun 24 14:04:19 MythBusters featured it Jun 24 14:04:24 Others may have busted it also Jun 24 14:04:26 nid0: no NFS Shift ? there is a icon in the theme of this game Jun 24 14:04:29 but Mythbusters is where I saw it Jun 24 14:04:35 mythbusters are the modern 3 stooges Jun 24 14:04:41 they busted nothing really Jun 24 14:04:56 except the things they blasted away with nitro Jun 24 14:05:04 didn't never heard of mythbuster Jun 24 14:05:23 khertan: no idea, thats just the key included software list on the nokia site Jun 24 14:05:40 that list doesnt seem to be all inclusive though, as it doesnt include foursquare either Jun 24 14:05:45 which is specifically mentioned at http://swipe.nokia.com/applications/ Jun 24 14:05:46 khertan: stuntman and SFX holiwood dudes that pretend to go science Jun 24 14:06:01 ok, its been good talking about security and N9 and Cell Broadcast SMS but I have a hunger only the Kernel can satisfy so its time to go out and get some food (the success of CBSMS means that I am in a good mood and feeling like junk to celebrate :) Jun 24 14:06:04 though it might just be some will be on ovi rather than preloaded Jun 24 14:06:07 cya later guys Jun 24 14:06:12 later Jun 24 14:06:36 nid0: also :) Jun 24 14:06:48 sucess???? I obviously missed something Jun 24 14:07:00 he's decoded a broadcast CBS Jun 24 14:07:08 hah Jun 24 14:07:21 I could do that probably, with wireshark Jun 24 14:07:28 hope he used sth better Jun 24 14:07:31 smarter Jun 24 14:08:19 alas it seems SMSCB is a strictly 2G thing Jun 24 14:08:25 never seen any on 3G Jun 24 14:08:39 and it s Jun 24 14:08:45 so it's almost getting obsolete? Jun 24 14:08:45 and it s usefull for what ? Jun 24 14:09:02 in Japan they send tsunami warning Jun 24 14:09:12 omg Jun 24 14:09:19 here you may get homezone notifications Jun 24 14:09:19 hum ... so they can prepare cam ? Jun 24 14:09:31 do you realize this could mean than the lack of cbsms support in the n900 could have caused indirect tsunami deaths? Jun 24 14:09:47 oh ... this thing that is implemented in all s40 nokia phone which was never working in France Jun 24 14:09:52 I'm aware of this Jun 24 14:10:12 and for those not having phone ? Jun 24 14:10:23 it s maybe not frequent in japan ... :) Jun 24 14:10:34 those will get a call from you on landline Jun 24 14:10:52 or you run over and shake them Jun 24 14:11:55 I give a sh** what it's used for, I'm only interested if it's supported or not Jun 24 14:12:58 my first mobile had no SMS support at all - "why do you need that? it's not even working as carriers don't support it here". One year later I was the only one who couldn't text for free Jun 24 14:14:00 (yes, there's been a time where SMS were free, and only when carriers noticed users like it, they started to charge for it) Jun 24 14:14:10 I had a long conversation with a vodafone sales rep once who told me that "cameras are the new thing, but theyll never be available in phones you can get free on contract" Jun 24 14:15:07 heh Jun 24 14:15:17 12 months later, practically every phone on my o2 contract renewal list had a camera Jun 24 14:15:19 frankly tha cameras in cell phones even the better ones aren't worth it Jun 24 14:15:21 the hackers here wil know where I come from, and why it's stupid to ignore technology on a "who's using it" rationale Jun 24 14:16:34 sadly though, all the mobile carriers here are largely doing that Jun 24 14:16:49 hmm is it just me or does qmfmail seem more useless than modest Jun 24 14:16:50 ruskie: I dare to differ. I'd friggin useful Jun 24 14:17:01 the 4g spectrum sale that's coming soon is expected to do pretty badly, with the rationale being that people dont use 3g much so why bother with 4g Jun 24 14:17:16 ruskie: http://www.flickr.com/photos/14560445@N08/ WFM Jun 24 14:17:24 and they dont get that they arent raking in cash from 3g because it's 1) overpriced 2) shitty coverage and 3) shitty speed Jun 24 14:18:19 SpeedEvil, so noisy pic...

I'm talking about camera Jun 24 14:22:08 ahh Jun 24 14:23:01 the only decent cameras are DSLRs Jun 24 14:23:07 *all* my pictures at shae.ovo.com are made by N900 (minus one) Jun 24 14:23:25 are there any (free) alternatives to sygic mobile maps if I'd like to have turn by turn car navigation for n900?

Jun 24 14:35:44 ruskie: I have heard good things about the Canon PowerShot S95 Jun 24 14:36:25 damnshock, flash the kernel then Jun 24 14:36:27 the only interest for canon I might have is for use with the custom firmware stuff Jun 24 14:36:53 Hurrian: any link to where I can get? Jun 24 14:37:08 but frankly when I was comparing pics from various cams... each one tended to skew one colour or another Jun 24 14:37:12 Damnshock: need to flash the fiasco image first, then eMMC and then fiasco again Jun 24 14:37:29 mmm hiemanshu I'll try that Jun 24 14:37:33 you all noticed the "user" manual for harmattan/N950? Jun 24 14:37:46 Damnshock: dont reboot until the last flash Jun 24 14:37:48 available since ~3h Jun 24 14:38:19 15 psges pdf Jun 24 14:38:24 pages even Jun 24 14:38:41 DocScrutinizer, nope? linky Jun 24 14:39:01 see wiki n950 -> FCC registration Jun 24 14:39:17 hiemanshu: flashing right now:) Jun 24 14:39:20 I'm not posting a direct link here, for some reason Jun 24 14:40:32 http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?p=23272&postcount=203 Jun 24 14:40:33 Teehee Jun 24 14:40:48 hiemanshu: it reboot by itself :S Jun 24 14:41:05 javispedro, did you apply for a devkit?

Jun 24 14:41:33 GeneralAntilles: I want to see that for myself (the PC swearing ;) ) Jun 24 14:41:37 hiemanshu: yes, I did :S Jun 24 14:41:51 crap, should have done that hehe Jun 24 14:41:52 there are also butt ugly exterio photos and rather interesting (for me) internal photos now Jun 24 14:41:55 GeneralAntilles: I've put some stuff about SDL games. Jun 24 14:42:01 community program? Jun 24 14:42:15 GeneralAntilles: yep, no launchpad account. Jun 24 14:42:35 Damnshock: well just reflash the eMMC and fiasco now Jun 24 14:42:39 Somebody needs to apply with theme hacking in mind. Jun 24 14:42:41 I'm actually very interested in deciphering how does rotation work and how we can make SDL games first class citizens. Jun 24 14:42:44 hiemanshu: I'm going to :) Jun 24 14:42:55 Given what konttori has said about the themes. Jun 24 14:43:02 of course the internal photos aren't good enough to read a single chip print Jun 24 14:43:24 GeneralAntilles: agreed, they look awfully complex. Jun 24 14:43:46 batery is BL-4D anyway Jun 24 14:43:50 ian_r may be applying under theme hacking. Jun 24 14:54:13 hiemanshu: everything seems to have gone fine,booting the device right now. Thanks a lot for your help man!!! Jun 24 14:54:57 the USB receptacle looks terribly strange Jun 24 14:55:03 Damnshock: np Jun 24 14:55:30 * khertan really hope to catch an n950 ... but have the feeling he will be disapointed ... Jun 24 14:56:00 ShadowJK: SpeedEvil: jacekowski: you might be interested in the shots of N950 internal hw guts Jun 24 14:56:09 where? Jun 24 14:56:12 FCC Jun 24 14:56:13 https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=339630&fcc_id=%27LJPRM-680%27 Jun 24 14:56:19 Oh - I diddn't look through them in detail Jun 24 14:56:30 available since today in the morning Jun 24 14:56:55 not early in the morning though :-) Jun 24 14:57:03 ack :) Jun 24 14:57:14 the pictures are fairly low res though Jun 24 14:57:22 yep :-S Jun 24 14:57:33 no chip labels Jun 24 14:57:58 but they removel ALL the cans :-) Jun 24 14:57:59 let's hope some devices surface in the meego tampere community soon Jun 24 14:58:09 then we can have a happy picture session Jun 24 14:59:14 I hope to see one on my desk soon, though I'm undecided if I want to go N900-exploded again Jun 24 14:59:16 fragile hinge Jun 24 14:59:23 yes Jun 24 14:59:43 that's why it got rejected by carriers I heard Jun 24 14:59:53 The hunge looks fragile Jun 24 14:59:57 I wonder if it really is Jun 24 15:00:24 you bet you mustn't sit on THAT device Jun 24 15:00:43 stupid grainy photos Jun 24 15:00:45 N900 had chances to survive - this NOT Jun 24 15:01:42 They could have just used the same design as the N900 but with upgraded hardware and OS Jun 24 15:01:49 i.e. same sliding action Jun 24 15:02:27 it's fairly similar to the E7 mechanics Jun 24 15:02:27 now if only they had placed the file "schematics" there as well, by acciddent Jun 24 15:03:18 N97 as well? Jun 24 15:03:44 I like the fact it has a 42 key kbd Jun 24 15:03:56 nah, hinge on n97 looks bigger Jun 24 15:03:59 wouldn't want that to be 43 Jun 24 15:04:06 dunno would need to find an n97 to check :) Jun 24 15:04:43 domesheet, just as somebody asked yesterday "click or soft?" Jun 24 15:06:17 is there any way or time when/how you can get those schematics from FCC? Jun 24 15:06:21 ouch even the manual say hello developper Jun 24 15:06:30 yep! Jun 24 15:06:40 also watch the number of pages Jun 24 15:07:18 khertan: developer doesn't mean a thing though, just "no consumer helpdesk included" Jun 24 15:07:43 lzop.c: undocumented option '--no-header'. just for testing. Jun 24 15:08:01 also doesn't have to adhere to mandatory stuff for consumer devices, like 911 et cetera Jun 24 15:08:28 ah, my carrier is going to love it. Jun 24 15:08:44 ? Jun 24 15:08:49 being ironic Jun 24 15:08:51 ;P Jun 24 15:08:53 SpeedEvil: ? Jun 24 15:08:53 Oh - you can't easily register arbitrary phones? Jun 24 15:09:18 I can Jun 24 15:09:53 DocScrutinizer : This device is not commercially available. is pretty clear :) Jun 24 15:10:13 Hrm, so, microsim Jun 24 15:10:22 yep microsim Jun 24 15:10:25 What is AT&T gonna say when (if) I take an N9 in there. Jun 24 15:10:29 Is the N950 microsim? Jun 24 15:10:35 thought the thing said explicitly NOT microsim Jun 24 15:10:36 you can get scary shit commercially, like chainsaws, even 750kV transformers Jun 24 15:10:50 or guns!!! Jun 24 15:11:02 GeneralAntilles: nope Jun 24 15:11:06 developer doesn't mean it's not on sale. Just the shops are different ;-P Jun 24 15:11:10 The n950 battery is replaceable - and it has a microSD? Jun 24 15:11:14 Or no microSD Jun 24 15:11:20 I need to go and look at those phoens Jun 24 15:11:21 GeneralAntilles: Do not use a mini-UICC SIM card, also known as a micro-SIM card Jun 24 15:11:30 it s pretty clear too :) Jun 24 15:11:31 SpeedEvil: if you pop off the back cover you can change the battery yes Jun 24 15:11:40 SpeedEvil: miniSIM Jun 24 15:12:01 SD Jun 24 15:12:03 not SIM Jun 24 15:12:07 n950 The battery in the device is non-removable, Jun 24 15:12:13 I was told in theory you can replace the N9 battery too, but it's much harder to pry it open Jun 24 15:12:17 battery is BL-4D Jun 24 15:12:31 khertan: it is Jun 24 15:12:31 khertan: it sure is, saw it wednesday myself :) Jun 24 15:12:34 definitely Jun 24 15:12:59 GeneralAntilles: no sd slot Jun 24 15:13:17 I wondered yesterday if the N9 can have its SIM live-swapped Jun 24 15:13:19 dm8tbr: so manual isn't uptodate :) Jun 24 15:13:20 I wonder if AT&T even needs to see tho phone. Jun 24 15:13:25 people cry and want battery hotswap, nokia makes coldswap impossible too. progress right there ;) Jun 24 15:13:39 GeneralAntilles: both N9 ands N950 are microSIM Jun 24 15:13:46 khertan: user replaceable and 'you can still do it if you know how' are two different things... Jun 24 15:13:52 DocScrutinizer it s not what manual say Jun 24 15:14:14 dm8tbr: so it s not removable :) Jun 24 15:14:18 DocScrutinizer, N950 manual seems to say not for N950. Jun 24 15:14:24 khertan: if you consider yourself a dumb user, yes Jun 24 15:14:26 o.O Jun 24 15:14:39 mompls Jun 24 15:14:51 dm8tbr: yeah but i mean ... use a second battery ... i ll not lost crew changing battery in the metro Jun 24 15:14:53 or tubes Jun 24 15:14:54 :) Jun 24 15:15:02 must go on .... bye everyone Jun 24 15:15:05 WAve. Jun 24 15:15:06 khertan: it works fine without the screws Jun 24 15:15:19 you still need to pry the plastic back off Jun 24 15:15:58 DocScrutinizer: I may be wrong, but it sure looked like a standard sim what I saw in the N9 Jun 24 15:16:04 indeed, the holder seems to be 'normal' SIM size Jun 24 15:16:38 dm8tbr: that's weird as the N9 specs clearly say microSIM iirc Jun 24 15:16:47 also the n950 inside picture looks like 'nowadays' normal sim Jun 24 15:17:04 notice normal SIM is credit card size and a bit out of fashion :D Jun 24 15:17:16 0Y161 holder looks like standard SIM anyway Jun 24 15:17:51 DocScrutinizer: maybe I didn't look close enough. I'll have to check monday. Jun 24 15:18:01 dm8tbr: not here, just grabbed a phone and "meh, not THIS one, the holder there is sure not right size" ;-P Jun 24 15:18:31 * dm8tbr still owns a _working_ Siemens P1 ... Jun 24 15:18:38 dm8tbr: internal shots p13 looks like standard sized SIM Jun 24 15:18:39 that takes 'normal' sims! :D Jun 24 15:19:09 supernormal Jun 24 15:19:09 DocScrutinizer: ack, we'll need to check for the n9 too though Jun 24 15:20:56 neither 0Y161 nor OY161 gives me any hit for hw component :-S Jun 24 15:21:11 OYL61? Jun 24 15:21:59 neither Jun 24 15:23:22 btw: just noticed, on page 12 you can see the keyboard frame and it says N9 on it, lol, old casing Jun 24 15:24:01 page 5 you can see it better Jun 24 15:25:53 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/23/wireless_disclosure_act/ <- americans call hspa 4g? Is that why every random idiot is asking about 4G support? Jun 24 15:26:03 this 0Y161 is *definitely* standard Jun 24 15:26:07 not micro Jun 24 15:26:20 I metered the dimensions Jun 24 15:26:23 ShadowJK: it varies from carrier to carrier Jun 24 15:26:33 ShadowJK: carrier marketing departments screwed this one up Jun 24 15:26:40 yeah Jun 24 15:26:42 at&t or one of them has a "4g" service thats just non-crippled 3g, afaik Jun 24 15:26:58 ShadowJK: elreg ran a nice article that 4G is NOT what people claim :) Jun 24 15:27:13 N9 like there: http://www.engadget.com/photos/nokias-qwerty-slidin-n9-shows-up-in-the-wilds-of-china/#3277333 Jun 24 15:27:24 we know this device for quite some time now Jun 24 15:28:04 ShadowJK: basically yes aiui Jun 24 15:28:05 odd that they totally threw the design out and went for a candybar instead, really Jun 24 15:28:16 hspa+ Jun 24 15:29:08 ah I forget there was hspa+ Jun 24 15:29:36 ShadowJK: http://www.reghardware.com/2011/05/24/wtf_is_4g Jun 24 15:32:28 hehe, *subtle* diffs between http://www.engadget.com/photos/nokias-qwerty-slidin-n9-shows-up-in-the-wilds-of-china/#3277344 and FCC internal shots regarding PCB layout Jun 24 15:33:47 DocScrutinizer: well one says 0724 the other 1122, go figure :) Jun 24 15:33:59 NB those engadget shots are 10 months old Jun 24 15:34:10 DocScrutinizer: N950 has regular sim slot btw. Jun 24 15:34:22 we gathered as much :-) Jun 24 15:34:27 nevertheless thanks Jun 24 15:34:46 X-Fade: any idea about if that might change for N9? Jun 24 15:35:42 not that it really matters, just out of curiosity Jun 24 15:35:52 DocScrutinizer: No, don't know. Jun 24 15:36:12 what's your gut feeling? Jun 24 15:36:22 DocScrutinizer: micro Jun 24 15:36:28 :nod: Jun 24 15:36:32 makes sense Jun 24 15:36:43 more "hype" Jun 24 15:36:56 DocScrutinizer: I seem to recall reading or seeing it in one of the videos. Jun 24 15:37:27 yeah, me too that'S why I got taken by surprise to find mini on N950 Jun 24 15:37:58 it is also clearly listed on nokia's site as using micro :p Jun 24 15:38:12 that's what I meant Jun 24 15:38:35 DocScrutinizer: what I'm wondering from this picture is. is the OMAP in the POP variety or is that RAM next to it. what's your take? Jun 24 15:38:54 nid0: otoh the N950-flasher_release_notes don't list SIM in the list of hw diffs to N9 Jun 24 15:39:16 dm8tbr: mompls Jun 24 15:39:26 ima have to take a knife to my sim Jun 24 15:39:55 how likely is it that the SIM holder size changes between an proto and the release version of the n9? Jun 24 15:40:14 my guess would be unlikely, but that's just a guess Jun 24 15:41:08 dm8tbr: I gues that huge critter next to SOC is companion chip. But that's really hard to tell Jun 24 15:41:44 DocScrutinizer: companion chip as in PMIC, TI TWLxxxx? Jun 24 15:42:15 dm8tbr: needs housing changes. Tooling is *expensive*. They won't do without massive need to Jun 24 15:42:26 dm8tbr: yup Jun 24 15:42:35 k, tx Jun 24 15:42:39 just a really uneducated guess Jun 24 15:42:45 yeah Jun 24 15:43:06 I think OMAP always comes POP Jun 24 15:43:09 well I can have a look out. after all the N9 density here in hervanta should be quite high ;) Jun 24 15:43:13 TI OMAP Jun 24 15:43:16 why does this channel still have 300 lurkers? Jun 24 15:43:29 why not? Jun 24 15:43:38 DocScrutinizer: IIRC you can get OMAP3 also in the non-pop variety, but TI doesn't recommend it Jun 24 15:44:07 would be silly anyway for that class of device, that formfactor Jun 24 15:44:13 plautius: nokia just released a new maemo device, why shouldn't it? Jun 24 15:44:48 plautius: plus there's ~1/2 a million happy N900 usres, maybe more Jun 24 15:44:51 dm8tbr: i thought it was a meego device Jun 24 15:45:03 plautius: that's what marketing likes to call it... Jun 24 15:45:05 DocScrutinizer: those numbers are real? that's great! Jun 24 15:45:10 so why does this chan ONLY have 365 users? Jun 24 15:45:38 the only normal people i ever saw with n900s were in finland Jun 24 15:45:56 there are normal people in finland? *snicker* Jun 24 15:45:57 plz define normal people Jun 24 15:46:06 i immediately asked them 'why did you buy that!' Jun 24 15:46:13 he said 'it's the best from nokia' Jun 24 15:46:20 he had no idea about linux Jun 24 15:46:34 I have an n900 and do not live in finland Jun 24 15:46:34 yeah, the curse of maemo Jun 24 15:46:40 I know lots of people who have / have had n900's Jun 24 15:46:46 plautius: congratulations you found out the motivation of 99% of all buyers Jun 24 15:46:48 the coworker sitting right beside me has an n900 and doesn't live in finland Jun 24 15:46:50 though admittedly theyre all ex symbian coders in cambridge Jun 24 15:47:00 and I have another two friends with n900s who don't live in finland Jun 24 15:47:26 I know some that all are (ex-)Freerunner users Jun 24 15:47:28 :-D Jun 24 15:47:50 and they all are damn aware about the OS Jun 24 15:48:08 everyone I know bought it because it's a pocket linux bocks that also makes phone calls Jun 24 15:48:27 box* Jun 24 15:48:28 wow Jun 24 15:49:27 another interesting thing Jun 24 15:49:36 is that I'm seeing quite a lot of people excited about the N9 Jun 24 15:49:49 even apple fanboys who haven't bought anything besides iphones for the last 4 years Jun 24 15:50:37 Choom: i will never understand what motivates the booboisie to buy a phone Jun 24 15:50:51 even my girlfriend likes the idea of a black n9 Jun 24 15:51:04 i like them too - they look super Jun 24 15:51:07 she mentioned it to an apple fanboy she works with though, and his reply was "pff, dead platform" Jun 24 15:51:31 sadly, that says it all unless nokia make a definite statement to the contrary before release Jun 24 15:51:32 LOL Jun 24 15:51:52 too late Jun 24 15:52:13 trollop already confirmed THAT statement Jun 24 15:52:14 we don't know about their strategy yet Jun 24 15:52:41 assuming the rumors of an android N9 also making it to the market, they might be targeting different markets with different OSes Jun 24 15:52:50 oh really? I have not the slightest doubt about trollops strategy Jun 24 15:52:55 windows for corporate environments, android for the average user, linux for the nerds Jun 24 15:53:11 well Jun 24 15:53:13 android is linux Jun 24 15:53:18 but you get the point :P Jun 24 15:53:34 Choom: you're dreaming Jun 24 15:53:44 DocScrutinizer: im not so sure. the full video of the presentation to staff when he showed em the wp7 device hinted several times that meego dev is continuing with more devices on the way Jun 24 15:55:22 ""trolop says >no more linux devices after N9, even when it sells like skunk<" Jun 24 15:55:42 newspaper of yesterday Jun 24 15:55:43 iv seen that quote thrown about, but whats the actual source Jun 24 15:55:50 interview with trolop Jun 24 15:55:56 it certainly wasnt said in the 20 min presentation he gave Jun 24 15:56:16 no, he said no more meego devices Jun 24 15:56:24 ok Jun 24 15:56:32 and then stated that tne N9 was not meego but a Qt implementation Jun 24 15:56:43 idi.... Jun 24 15:57:26 he's presenting a meego 1.2 harmattan device, and next day says "it's not meego" ??? Jun 24 15:57:53 his video presentation also clearly has him saying that the ui concepts the n9 introduces are going to continue, qt is going to continue into the next billion "and elsewhere", and several references to the meego teams "continuing to do" great work etc etc, all in present tense Jun 24 15:58:45 err, I'd need to actually watch that - alas I got no bucket around Jun 24 15:59:53 there was also a possible leak yesterday with a phone very similar to the N9 and its windows counterpart running android Jun 24 16:00:10 even his first sentence of it gives a clue, talking about the meego team and the "quality of work that's being done", not been done Jun 24 16:00:30 I bet 98% of interested devels as well as users and other folks are rather convinced of "dead platform" Jun 24 16:00:33 me, all I care about is making my N900 the best it can possibly be :) Jun 24 16:00:34 if he was in the mindset that "there thats the n9 launched, now meego can fuck off", im sure some past tenses would be slipping out Jun 24 16:00:47 DocScrutinizer: Its alive! Jun 24 16:00:58 which, along with the fact that elob doesn't want to call it a meego phone, leads me to believe that they intend to target different market segments Jun 24 16:01:08 might be wishful thinking from me, but I like to believe it Jun 24 16:01:20 What does he want to call it? Jun 24 16:01:44 well, he calls it meego frequently Jun 24 16:01:52 jonwil: I'm all with you Jun 24 16:03:18 Choom, like samsung's bada? Jun 24 16:03:41 maybe he starts calling it "OUR meego" next week, as opposed to "intel's meego" ;-P Jun 24 16:03:59 did he say "intel's meegp"? Jun 24 16:04:03 heh Jun 24 16:04:31 ShadowJK: I dunno, I really can't watch such shit Jun 24 16:05:20 the first minute and a half of the video is the main bit Jun 24 16:05:34 too long for my stomach Jun 24 16:05:41 the next quarter of an hour is a finglish demonstration about how to view airline flight information on wp7. Jun 24 16:05:51 I am currently investigating making some improvements to the FindMine game, if I can figure out how to get libillumination0-dev installed into my Scratchbox install Jun 24 16:05:52 come to ##antiwarradio Jun 24 16:05:53 show is on now http://listen.kaosradioaustin.org/kaos-128 Jun 24 16:06:23 jonwil: for winP7? ;-P Jun 24 16:06:36 For maemo :P Jun 24 16:07:41 plautius: now it's time to earn some bonus points before you got trolling/off-topic next time :-) Jun 24 16:08:11 DocScrutinizer: He did that in several channels Jun 24 16:08:22 there is no fixing the plautius Jun 24 16:08:33 you bet there is Jun 24 16:08:39 ok, good, FindMine is GPL Jun 24 16:08:47 so it should be no problems to make the changes I want to make Jun 24 16:08:49 DocScrutinizer: Lets nuture (fix) plautius Jun 24 16:08:58 hey lolcat Jun 24 16:09:03 hello Jun 24 16:09:21 you keep that sphincter sewn shut Jun 24 16:09:22 google translate text: Elopin that N9 is more Qt programming environment than MeeGo operating system utilizing the device. Qt programming environment allows applications to be programmed to operate three of Nokia's operating system, but not a Windows phone. Jun 24 16:10:03 Nokia has three oses? Jun 24 16:10:08 well, if that is a true theyre obviously just trying to spin it the other way round to android Jun 24 16:10:31 nah, but Qt runs on windows desktop afaik Jun 24 16:10:33 android is "our java overlay is linux really!!" and nokia's "our linux underlying os is a qt experience!" Jun 24 16:10:53 lolcat: yes: symbian, maemo, and harmattan Jun 24 16:11:05 Meego is intel's Jun 24 16:11:11 those are the current target platforms in the Qt SDK Jun 24 16:11:22 Also Maemo isn't an os, it is an distro Jun 24 16:11:30 which is an OS Jun 24 16:11:51 Nokia doesn't own Linux (wich is an OS) Jun 24 16:12:01 no, linux is just a kernel Jun 24 16:12:11 GNU/linux then Jun 24 16:12:22 pleeease gentelmen Jun 24 16:13:16 when trolop says "Qt runs on 3 OS" he probably meant symbian, linux, and windows desktop Jun 24 16:13:18 ok, even better, the libillumination-dev package I need is in extras which means getting it for Scratchbox should be easy enough :) Jun 24 16:13:34 DocScrutinizer: no, he has claimed that Qt will not be available on wp7 Jun 24 16:13:51 pff Jun 24 16:13:51 there was an engadget article about it Jun 24 16:14:14 wP7 Jun 24 16:14:32 he said exactly same in same sentence, above Jun 24 16:14:42 So we can write a something (app/program/application/whatever floats your boat) in qt and have it multi platform? Jun 24 16:14:49 >>but not a Windows phone.<< Jun 24 16:15:08 Symbian, Maemo, Meego and Android? Jun 24 16:15:19 isnt it more likely by the 3 os's he means s40, symbian, and maego? Jun 24 16:15:25 If I had a dollar for everything posted on Engadget that later turned out not to be true... Jun 24 16:15:34 maemo and meego are the same OS basically Jun 24 16:15:37 nid0: Maego? A mix of maemo/meego? Jun 24 16:15:46 maybe not for trollop Jun 24 16:15:49 lolcat: ie both being counted as one, as essentially they are Jun 24 16:15:57 but then he got his count incorrect Jun 24 16:16:01 DocScrutinizer: Maemo has apt-get! I like apt-get Jun 24 16:16:02 DocScrutinizer: http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/11/nokia-notifies-developers-that-qt-is-out-for-windows-phone-devel/ Jun 24 16:16:22 lolcat: and I like russian vodka Jun 24 16:16:39 Choom: SO WHAT? Jun 24 16:17:04 even the URL says exactly what trollop said up there ^^^^ Jun 24 16:17:08 DocScrutinizer: the UI frameworks are quite different, and they are presented as distinct target systems on Qt Creator Jun 24 16:17:21 DocScrutinizer: Can I get the N9, take its stuff out, stick it into the n900 case, replace the screen with the N9 screen, and then make meego maemo + meego updates? Jun 24 16:17:25 *yawn* Jun 24 16:17:28 so I Would Guess that nokia considers hem different OSes (and so would I, considering that core frameworks change) Jun 24 16:18:05 Choom: you're boring me as you don't listen Jun 24 16:18:17 I'm sleepy Jun 24 16:18:24 sorry Jun 24 16:18:25 I want N9 hardware into my N900! Jun 24 16:18:26 Qt also is available on ubuntu, on debian, on fedorea... Jun 24 16:18:28 reading back :P Jun 24 16:18:51 so how would trollop count exactly THREE os? Jun 24 16:19:06 sure, but none of those are Nokia OSes Jun 24 16:19:21 and once again, I said "afaik windows DESKTOP runs Qt" Jun 24 16:19:25 I dont get the problem. s40, symbian, and meego. Jun 24 16:19:30 and I think we're nitpicking here Jun 24 16:19:35 so I won't continue down this road Jun 24 16:19:46 maemo is either not counted or included under the meego count, because they dont develop it any more and havent done for quite a while Jun 24 16:19:48 hmm, someone suggested earlier that I ask on the osmocombb project channels about cell broadcast stuff but I dont know which channel would be most appropriate Jun 24 16:20:50 honestly, I'm either geting a heart attack, or fall asleep, when we continue discussing trollop shit on that level Jun 24 16:22:00 he trolls this chan even though he isn't here at all Jun 24 16:22:10 nid0: s40 is symbian Jun 24 16:22:16 yo Jun 24 16:22:22 Sure he isn't here? Jun 24 16:22:29 not really Jun 24 16:22:39 s40 is not symbian Jun 24 16:22:44 s60 is symbian Jun 24 16:22:57 Elop, you dirty fuck, reveal yourself! You broke my N9! Fuck you! Jun 24 16:23:36 Really? Jun 24 16:23:48 [Whois] elop ist ~elop@wsru.co.uk (elop) Jun 24 16:24:16 lolcat, really, s40 isn't symbian Jun 24 16:24:40 s30 and s40 are "Nokia OS" Jun 24 16:25:22 j2me devel api for third party apps Jun 24 16:26:12 hmm Jun 24 16:26:23 I'll never have on of those Jun 24 16:26:32 Maybe a cheap s40 for backup Jun 24 16:26:46 they're what the common man refers to as "dumbphone" and nokia calls featurephone Jun 24 16:26:51 s30 doesnt 'exist' anymore, does it? Jun 24 16:26:56 dunno Jun 24 16:27:20 don't you think it's *way* more interesting and exciting to spot references to new unseen devices in meego repository, rather than decrypting trollop's way to count platforms that run Qt? Jun 24 16:27:26 iirc it was only on 3510i Jun 24 16:27:49 What does 1100 and 1600 run? Jun 24 16:28:03 you can still get nokia 1100's Jun 24 16:29:53 those don't do j2me :/ Jun 24 16:29:59 maybe i'm OT Jun 24 16:30:54 yeah they dont Jun 24 16:30:59 Sicelo: Nobody was OT since febuary last year here Jun 24 16:31:11 re Jun 24 16:32:00 I wish I had some more docs on how Cell Broadcast works or better yet some example packets beyond just the one I can get the local tower to send me Jun 24 16:32:01 what happened February? :p Jun 24 16:32:15 meego got announced. Jun 24 16:32:23 and maemo was eol'd Jun 24 16:32:56 jonwil: drive around a bit? Jun 24 16:33:17 jonwil: Or publish something that can snarf them if we install it Jun 24 16:33:44 well I posted on the mailing list with all the notes and stuff I had Jun 24 16:33:46 have Jun 24 16:33:54 including the test dumper I am using Jun 24 16:34:13 and the bytes I had to change in libsms to get things to work Jun 24 16:34:18 I mwan in extras-devel or something Jun 24 16:35:07 jonwil: \o/ Jun 24 16:35:20 \o/ what? Jun 24 16:35:30 jonwil: I suggested that one byte, some time ago. You recall that? :-) Jun 24 16:35:49 This is a change of 3 bytes Jun 24 16:35:53 jonwil: nice you succeeded to receive a smscb Jun 24 16:36:07 based on what I see in the new Harmattan x86 libsms package Jun 24 16:36:08 ok, one opcode Jun 24 16:37:10 jonwil: *that* is clearly a patch tha needs to go to cssu Jun 24 16:37:23 nope, its 2 opcodes actually Jun 24 16:37:25 :) Jun 24 16:37:29 2 instructions :) Jun 24 16:37:32 :-) Jun 24 16:37:55 is there an IRC channel or discussion forum/list for CSSU where the dev guys hang out? Jun 24 16:39:42 I just thought of another option, perhaps it would be possible to completly duplicate sms_gsm_cb_routing_ntf and then use LD_PRELOAD to make the dynamic linker use my new copy instead of the original. Although I have no idea how that works on ARM Jun 24 16:39:46 jonwil: yep, #maemo-ssu Jun 24 16:40:03 or with ARM position-independent-code though Jun 24 16:42:06 the advantage of LD_PRELOAD is that it doesn't require redistributing a nokia binary file Jun 24 16:42:41 jonwil: just read your post to the list, nice bit of binary patching work there :) Jun 24 16:43:49 believe it or not, I find reverse engineering fun :) Jun 24 16:43:55 Is there a way to create one's own easy debian image? Jun 24 16:44:00 and have been doing it for years Jun 24 16:44:13 wow! very insteresting documents released from the arizona police department by lulzsec! Jun 24 16:44:14 mostly on PC games of all sorts Jun 24 16:44:26 DocScrutinizer: have you seen them yet? Jun 24 16:44:45 jonwil: same here :) Jun 24 16:48:10 * lardman heads for home, catch you guys over the weekend hopefully Jun 24 16:48:46 ok, a look at sms_gsm_cb_routing_ntf suggests that cloning it shouldn't be hard Jun 24 16:50:56 jonwil: ld_preload would work for sure, but on cssu I guess we could even patch the original file Jun 24 16:51:23 LD_PRELOAD is cleaner though and wont require people to install CSSU just for CBSMS Jun 24 16:52:04 still needs cssu, as you need to patch the location where you have to insert LD_PRELOAD Jun 24 16:52:23 but I agree a clone is for sure the nicer method Jun 24 16:53:54 well, if we create a package that brute-force patches existing files, the we could get away with a package in extras repo ;-) Jun 24 16:55:48 a simple binary patch does seem the easiest, will discuss it in #maemo-ssu then Jun 24 16:56:02 who are the people that do the decision making regarding the CSSU? (if there are such people) Jun 24 16:57:03 Is there a way to create one's own easy debian image? Or some sort of how-to for creating a similar chroot environment? Any help is appreciated... Jun 24 16:58:13 the other problem I just realized with a clone of that function is that it calls msgbuf_get_ptr, sb_length_get and sb_id_get from libisi.so (functions I dont really know how to properly use) Jun 24 16:58:41 is anyone using mediabox? am I right in thinking it should work as a dlna control point? Jun 24 18:12:13 Anyone where who's got their hands on a N950? Jun 24 18:12:39 I'm already having trouble flashing mine :( Jun 24 18:13:11 if i ever own a bunch of land(like massive mounts of acres) im so going to put shit like this on it in random places, hopefully some of it is wooded area http://i.imgur.com/3Dhzj.jpg Jun 24 18:13:21 wait Jun 24 18:13:25 the n950 is out? Jun 24 18:13:48 kinda. It's not for sale, but Nokia has started shipping it to developers. Jun 24 18:14:21 dragly, where do you live? Jun 24 18:14:27 Worked very fine until I decided to "Clear device". Now it won't even boot. Jun 24 18:14:29 Norway Jun 24 18:14:36 Ah ok Jun 24 18:15:04 * ShadowJK calls his SWAT team: "The device is in Norway, I repeat, the device is in Norway." Jun 24 18:15:54 Hehe. Jun 24 18:16:29 Have you got any experience with the N900 flasher. Seems they are similar, so maybe I can issue some command line options that would help? Jun 24 18:17:01 Well with N900 the main challenge is getting the N900 into a state where it will accept flashing Jun 24 18:17:07 dragly: and you can't reflash it again? Jun 24 18:17:22 I mean, what does it say when you try? Jun 24 18:17:24 The easiest way is to remove the battery, connect the USB cable, start flasher, insert battery Jun 24 18:17:30 I'm doing a reflash now. It's "erasing" as we speak. Jun 24 18:17:51 Hm... Guess I'll have to dig out some special screw drivers to lift the battery out in that case. Jun 24 18:19:07 The flash log is here, if it is of any help: http://pastebin.com/Qa13VdbK Jun 24 18:19:22 Seems to be some kind of strange security error. (Pentagon device?) Jun 24 18:20:12 Looks like it found the device ok Jun 24 18:20:28 Yes. And it erases everything with success too apparently. Jun 24 18:20:52 But as soon as it's supposed to load the images, it just fails with the errors you see in the log. Jun 24 18:21:20 The erase takes about 15 minutes, so it's an awful lot of time to wait just to see it fail every time :( Jun 24 18:21:56 hm Jun 24 18:21:58 hmhm, thanks, ape-algo is indeed a tiny flashing environment then Jun 24 18:22:38 seems so. The transfer before the erase is extremely quick. Jun 24 18:23:22 bb5_rdc_cert_read() are the function calls to the TEE which checks if you have a r&d cert on the device (which you have not, but I think it's normal) Jun 24 18:23:41 but the real problem seems to be that your apparently try to “downgrade” the firmware Jun 24 18:23:45 ah, so that shouldn't be the problem? Jun 24 18:23:53 which is not allowed Jun 24 18:24:01 I see. Why would they publish an older firmware version than they ship? Jun 24 18:24:10 no idea :/ Jun 24 18:24:18 quick question: has anyone got J2ME to run on N900? a friend ask Jun 24 18:24:26 there is some emulator Jun 24 18:24:28 heh Jun 24 18:24:37 Version of 'sw-release': DFL61_HARMATTAN_10.2011.24-7_PR_RM680 Jun 24 18:24:47 Image SW version DFL61_HARMATTAN_1.2011.22-6_PR_RM680 Jun 24 18:24:49 four twitter clients, none work Jun 24 18:24:57 i know J2SE works with iced tea Jun 24 18:24:58 * wmarone casts voodoo upon them Jun 24 18:25:01 but J2ME? Jun 24 18:25:30 Ah, thanks for pointing that out Corsac. Jun 24 18:25:32 FIQ|n900, as said there is something about j2me in the repos Jun 24 18:25:41 emolator iirc or something Jun 24 18:25:44 erm emulator Jun 24 18:25:46 let's check it out Jun 24 18:25:58 I guess they might have done a mistake by uploading an old version or something then. Jun 24 18:26:22 Why would it be risky to downgrade by the way? Isn't that quite normal? Jun 24 18:26:30 depends Jun 24 18:26:34 on a developer device it might be ok Jun 24 18:26:52 but downgrading on a production phone can be problematic Jun 24 18:26:54 * dragly hoping for a command line option that says "--force-downgrade" Jun 24 18:27:17 if you find a flaw in a firmware version, then you hope people upgrade and you try to prevent reverting to the bad version Jun 24 18:27:34 so noone can exploit you by reverting to the vulnerable version Jun 24 18:27:46 That makes sense. Jun 24 18:28:24 Hmm... How can I obtain the new version then. Better go for a Google-hunt. I guess there are noone at work at Nokia until monday again. Jun 24 18:29:04 hi Jun 24 18:29:08 Except it the U.S. maybe? But would anyone there have the newest firmware laying around on their desk? Jun 24 18:29:56 is there a java SE in the repositories for maemo? Jun 24 18:30:12 Damn... I was so happy that the device came today. Guess I'll have to be patient for a couple more days. Jun 24 18:30:27 if so, what is it called? Jun 24 18:30:45 ME* Jun 24 18:30:45 Where should I file a bug for this? I guess bugs.maemo.org isn't the right place anymore? Jun 24 18:31:02 0_0.. coincidence? ;/ Jun 24 18:31:25 I'll try http://developer.nokia.com/bugs Jun 24 18:33:14 dragly: when you got your n950 didn't you get an url or something to report issue? Jun 24 18:33:26 in the package itself or in the mail you might have received Jun 24 18:33:39 wat Jun 24 18:33:48 N950 already being produced? Jun 24 18:33:49 Nope. Just the developer.nokia.com/Devices/MeeGo page Jun 24 18:33:59 FIQ|n900: It's already being shipped :) Jun 24 18:34:05 But only to developers Jun 24 18:34:10 reporting on meego.com might not really be a good idea either Jun 24 18:34:13 yeah, i know Jun 24 18:34:33 Seems http://developer.nokia.com/bugs has a Harmattan category. I'll try my luck there. Jun 24 18:34:45 After all, I downloaded the flasher from developer.nokia.com as well. Jun 24 18:34:48 too bad there's only one device for us non-devs on meego in sight, and that one doesn't have a keyboard... Jun 24 18:35:05 I guess I'll stick to N900 a bit more Jun 24 18:35:15 as it still works fine Jun 24 18:35:43 keyboard as in, a hardware one Jun 24 18:35:49 Strange thing that the date for the firmware version on my device is 24th of July by the way... :s Jun 24 18:36:04 Oppo|n900: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37799 and http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=52898 Jun 24 18:38:02 * FIQ|n900 wants a phone that works the way his computer do, more or less, i.e. real linux experience. N900 is the *only* options on the market currently with that Jun 24 18:38:12 option* Jun 24 18:38:46 dragly: it's not july 24th Jun 24 18:39:17 dragly: if the versionning scheme didn't change it's more like the 7th revision on week 24 Jun 24 18:39:24 so last week Jun 24 18:39:25 oh, I see that it would make no sense now :-p Jun 24 18:39:42 that would make the day a major version and the month a minor Jun 24 18:39:42 (well, week number is not really a good idea since not everyone has the same definition but eh :) Jun 24 18:39:53 I don't think there's day/month Jun 24 18:40:08 hehe. Okay, but then I'm not so scared. I guess they have a newer version internally. Jun 24 18:40:30 yeah but not providing the installed version is a bad idea Jun 24 18:40:38 as you already found out :) Jun 24 18:41:09 Yep. Which leaves me with a "bricked" device over the weekend. Jun 24 18:41:23 but at least you have a device Jun 24 18:41:24 ;p Jun 24 18:41:45 it'd be worth trying to fool the flasher though Jun 24 18:42:05 Yeah, but how. Jun 24 18:42:13 dragly: Could you take a photo with the n950 and n900 side by side (even though it does not work)? :) I'm interested in the thickness-factor Jun 24 18:42:37 Maybe I could open the bin in some Hex editing program and change the version number? :p Jun 24 18:42:47 gri_: Of course. Hang on a minute ;) Jun 24 18:43:13 dragly: nah you don't need that Jun 24 18:43:19 well, I don't think so Jun 24 18:43:21 wait a sec Jun 24 18:44:28 Corsac: Okay :) Thanks Jun 24 18:44:42 hmhm, well, yeah, maybe you have to Jun 24 18:44:43 :) Jun 24 18:45:50 Would that be dangerous in any way? Jun 24 18:45:58 Could it get any worse? :p Jun 24 18:45:58 no idea :) Jun 24 18:46:56 Don't know if I dare trying. But I'll try to open the bin file at least :p Jun 24 18:47:52 no exactly sure how they are packed, you can extract them but I don't from where exactly the version number is checked Jun 24 18:47:58 and if there's a signature somewhere Jun 24 18:48:07 (I'd assume so) Jun 24 18:48:10 "ups, i bricked the developer phone a few hours after getting it" Jun 24 18:48:21 FIQ|n900: That's me! :p Jun 24 18:48:43 * FIQ|n900 wants a N950 too Jun 24 18:48:50 fun, the flasher.save doesn't have the --moslo arg Jun 24 18:49:20 Corsac: What is the --moslo arg? Jun 24 18:49:24 no idea Jun 24 18:51:18 the problem with tmo is that it stops be getting any work done! Jun 24 18:52:15 fennec on N900/MeegoCE seems much faster than on N900/Maemo5... Jun 24 18:52:46 ShadowJK: yes, i got that impression too Jun 24 18:52:58 hmhm, iirc fiasco-gen has a way to sign images so you can unpack images but I'm not sure you could repack it correctly Jun 24 18:53:29 but it might be possible to extract the various images and flash them one by one, but as we don't really know how flasher works, it might be a bad idea Jun 24 18:55:00 Corsac: I guess you're right. I really miss the --force option in the flasher :( Jun 24 18:55:10 Can't seem to find anything similar yet. Jun 24 18:55:21 Hm, would it be possible to get uboot running w/o running stock kernel but powerkernel? Jun 24 18:55:22 not sure it's in the flasher Jun 24 18:55:36 it's more in the n950 itself Jun 24 18:55:44 well, in the ape-algo image Jun 24 18:55:55 as uboot in the repositories seems to conflict with powerkernel Jun 24 18:57:31 FIQ|n900: I think I read about something like a uboot-power, but I won't say that for sure. Jun 24 18:57:46 du kunde ha valt en bättre font ;) Jun 24 18:57:54 er, wrong channel.. Jun 24 18:58:04 dragly, i'll look Jun 24 18:58:05 Corsac: So no renaming would do then :( Jun 24 18:58:13 FIQ|n900: Jeg synes fonten er fin jeg :) Jun 24 18:59:04 indeed uboot-power seems to be there Jun 24 19:01:32 gri_: Transfering image to PC now ;) Jun 24 19:06:24 gri_: Here is the N900 and the N950 lined up next to eachother: http://dragly.org/?attachment_id=494 Jun 24 19:07:54 dragly: Thank you! Looks as thick as an Iphone but with keyboard :) Jun 24 19:08:15 dragly: Ok to use that in wiki? Jun 24 19:09:04 hmmh yeah, ape-algo is a linux kernel + a tiny script to run softupd Jun 24 19:09:11 SpeedEvil: To use the web browser in wiki? Jun 24 19:09:16 dragly: pic Jun 24 19:09:27 Oh, of course. CC-BY-SA ;) Jun 24 19:09:48 Trying to fix up the wiki a bit. Jun 24 19:10:36 SpeedEvil: Cool :) Jun 24 19:14:04 Uhm... Was it stupid of me to post the full log online? I just saw that there is a Device Identifier in there :o Jun 24 19:14:23 yeah, might not have been the wisest thing Jun 24 19:14:36 Doh... Jun 24 19:15:17 But how can that possibly be misused? Jun 24 19:15:38 no idea but I usually prefer to be safe than sorry :) Jun 24 19:18:12 dragly: is it good? Jun 24 19:18:13 I agree :) Jun 24 19:18:31 Shapeshifter: Is what good? The N950? Jun 24 19:18:38 yeah Jun 24 19:18:58 I managed to temporarily brick it now, but until I did that it was a pleasure to use :) Jun 24 19:20:09 dragly: how linuxy is it? I mean, does it feel like a proper linux or is it slightly out of shape like on the n900? Jun 24 19:21:13 I'm not really sure what you mean by that. It has a terminal like the N900, but the interface is of course like a smartphone. Jun 24 19:21:22 It is pretty far from any desktop distro. Jun 24 19:23:18 dragly: Did they send you one with norwegian keyboard layout? :D Jun 24 19:23:19 dragly: does it ship with busybox? does it have man pages? Jun 24 19:24:42 gri_: Nope. It's the english keyboard version. Didn't notice that before just now :p Jun 24 19:25:21 Shapeshifter: That I haven't had the chance to check. It's said that the N9 will have BusyBox, so I guess the N950 does too, but man pages I don't know if are installed. Jun 24 19:25:56 dragly: mh, I'd also like to know about the partitioning, being one of the utterly broken things on the n900. Jun 24 19:26:09 but oh well. we'll never see it in the stores anyway, so Jun 24 19:27:34 RX71-47-2_QEMU_MR0:~# man Jun 24 19:27:34 -sh: man: not found Jun 24 19:28:37 well I admit it makes sense to not include man pages on a device with limited space. a premade package would be nice though Jun 24 19:29:07 Shapeshifter: iirc somewhere nokia mentioned that partitioning follows the FHS Jun 24 19:56:58 http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2011/06/nokias-new-meego-based-n9-is-set-up-for-failure.ars Jun 24 20:16:19 DocScrutinizer, up for fixing the accelerometer driver? :) Jun 24 20:16:48 lol, ask me next week, I feel pissed by the N950 fighting and bitching Jun 24 20:16:56 MohammadAG: is the lockscreen still an overlay? Jun 24 20:17:16 DocScrutinizer: Do you have an N950? Jun 24 20:17:28 nope, and I'll not get any Jun 24 20:17:43 heh, ok :) Jun 24 20:18:59 not really sad about it, I'm happy with my N900. But I regret the hours invested for applying Jun 24 20:19:43 Oh, so that's what you meant about fighting. I was thinking you was fighting with the device or something. Jun 24 20:19:52 almost a whole day, counting in the the really unpleasant experience at developers.nokia.com Jun 24 20:20:08 merlin1991, you shouldn't know that Jun 24 20:20:25 :D Jun 24 20:20:29 But is it? Jun 24 20:20:31 You ended up not applying? Or you didn't have your application approved? Jun 24 20:21:11 I ended up getting advised to apply better Jun 24 20:21:33 Ah, I see :( Jun 24 20:22:57 I applied, but for some reason I doubt I'm getting a device Jun 24 20:22:58 DocScrutinizer: You could also apply again at meego.com? Jun 24 20:23:22 I did, after wasting a day with dev.nokia.com Jun 24 20:23:48 and now learnt that's a beauty competition of project pages Jun 24 20:25:04 meh, nevermind. Konttori asked me to apply, it's up to him if I receive a device or not. I don't really care Jun 24 20:26:56 it's not like my daily presence here could get any increase, I'm for sure not designing a project page to make my later wasting time with helping out happen Jun 24 20:27:09 that'S why I suggested MohammadAG to ask next week Jun 24 20:27:43 I see Jun 24 20:35:29 does anyone know how to read notifications? Jun 24 20:35:59 with your eyes. Jun 24 20:36:12 when they popup, look in their direction :P Jun 24 20:37:27 or record the screen at all times with another camera, so it can pause and read it if you are really slow Jun 24 20:38:54 hiemanshu, would you need to track the notifications on the second cameras' screen also? Jun 24 20:38:55 buncha comedians in here ;) Jun 24 20:39:37 lcuk: right so setup a circular recursive recording which ends up at the N900s camera Jun 24 20:40:27 with magnets? Jun 24 20:41:58 nope, tripods Jun 24 20:42:00 they are cheap Jun 24 20:43:00 MohammadAG, I hear you can use dbus Jun 24 20:43:12 is the other option Jun 24 20:43:52 hmm Jun 24 20:45:29 wmarone, I was being technically correct Jun 24 20:48:21 The best kind of correct. Jun 24 21:04:29 * merlin1991 has fun with scratchbox again, yay for cheap us suppliers Jun 24 21:18:14 dragly, do you have the device or just loan it? Jun 24 21:20:19 the N950 i mean Jun 24 21:28:33 My N900 clock is constantly 2 minutes off. I have set "update automatically" in the clock settings. From where does it sync? Jun 24 21:29:14 messerting: gsm network. Jun 24 21:29:37 Hi all Jun 24 21:30:04 installed kernel-power by running "apt-get install kernel-power-settings kernel-power-bootimg" on console and now Camera,Bluetooth and Lock Button doesn't work ... Jun 24 21:30:07 X-Fade: Ok, so I should blame my provider. Hm, well, or live with those 2 minutes off.. Jun 24 21:30:23 messerting: Or just disable that. The clock is fairly stable. Jun 24 21:31:11 will N9 allow the the use of multiple 'Desktops' like N900? Jun 24 21:31:38 smhar: There are no desktops as such. Jun 24 21:31:43 smhar: no widgets Jun 24 21:32:25 X-Fade, that sucks !!!!! why would they do that?!! Jun 24 21:32:32 X-Fade: ah, good idea. But then I loose the automatic change when I travel abroad, right? Jun 24 21:33:02 messerting: Yes, but you are aware of time changes then. Jun 24 21:33:11 messerting: Or at least it is likely. Jun 24 21:33:18 yep, true, I hope.. :) Jun 24 21:33:44 messerting: you also can go for ntpd Jun 24 21:34:02 DocScrutinizer: yes - easy to setup? Jun 24 21:34:06 DocScrutinizer: If you want to kill battery life :) Jun 24 21:34:06 messerting: just if you got frequent connectivity Jun 24 21:34:36 some idea? Jun 24 21:34:51 X-Fade: yeah, I don't think ntpd is particularly suited for mobile with random connectivity Jun 24 21:34:53 DocScrutinizer: pretty frequent, at least once a day. Jun 24 21:35:11 DocScrutinizer: And it prevents the device from sleeping. Jun 24 21:35:28 messerting: you could used the ntpd parameter equivalent to the meanwhile binned ntpdate/ntptime Jun 24 21:36:03 prevents from sleeping? err, doesn't sound good Jun 24 21:36:13 the best use it each time you set up connection, via a hook in ifup or sth Jun 24 21:36:37 messerting: yes, ntpd doesn't care about cpu and network usage Jun 24 21:36:43 Or just set your time every time you travel. Jun 24 21:37:00 2 seconds work vs a lot more to set it up properly :) Jun 24 21:37:06 Ok, will see how stable the local clock is, and try to remember to change time on travel Jun 24 21:37:09 Fight the right battles. Jun 24 21:37:34 thanks for the input. Will go back and read about the weird N9 news... Jun 24 21:37:46 weird n9 news? Jun 24 21:37:53 messerting: but honestly, I think calling ntpd once every hour or twice a day, to adjust your sysclock and hw-clock is best and most simple Jun 24 21:37:54 * rm_you just got here Jun 24 21:38:32 DocScrutinizer: agreed, will look into it. Is there a step-by-step wiki available..? Jun 24 21:38:50 messerting: you might want to have a look at alarmed app Jun 24 21:39:05 ideal for such cron-like scheduling Jun 24 21:39:45 rm_you: yes, weird: "meego is dead, wp7 is the future, developer only n950 phone, oh, and a meego N9 (not really meego, but maemo 5)" Jun 24 21:39:59 DocScrutinizer: ok, will do Jun 24 21:40:02 oh Jun 24 21:40:15 so, the original news from a few days ago. k :P Jun 24 21:40:19 ntpd -q Jun 24 21:40:22 was afraid i missed something crazt Jun 24 21:40:26 twice a day Jun 24 21:40:27 *crazy Jun 24 21:40:44 rm_you: eh, yep, I should have said "old news" :) Jun 24 21:40:46 disable GSM sync, if your carrier is flaky Jun 24 21:41:13 DocScrutinizer: ok, thanks :) Jun 24 21:42:37 I'm back with the same question: I installed kernel-power by running "apt-get install kernel-power-settings kernel-power-bootimg" and now Camera,Bluetooth and lock button doesn't work...i installed kernel-power correctly ? Jun 24 21:42:39 don't miss on hwclock --systohc --noadjfile immediately after successfull invocation Jun 24 21:42:45 messerting: ^ Jun 24 21:43:32 actulally hwclock --systohc --noadjfile --utc afaik Jun 24 21:44:01 so: ntpd -q && hwclock --systohc --noadjfile --utc afaik Jun 24 21:44:28 might have "typos", so please check Jun 24 21:44:32 hm anybody else not able to run qt-creator under ubuntu lucid? Jun 24 21:44:38 (talking about the one from the repos) Jun 24 21:44:49 DocScrutinizer: ok, thanks - is it "openntpd" package I need to install? Jun 24 21:45:02 I think yes Jun 24 21:45:48 make sure ntpd isn't linked in to system init when installing it, though Jun 24 21:47:58 you don't want to have ntpd running daemonized all the time, as X-Fade mentioned above Jun 24 21:48:39 messerting: may I as who's your GSM carrier? Jun 24 21:51:54 DocScrutinizer: Norwegian carrier, I think it is Netcom (my subscription is to another company, using that network) Jun 24 21:52:54 that might explain it Jun 24 21:53:59 DocScrutinizer: Ok, so I installed openntpd and is started ntpd. Should I remove a symlink in /etc/init... or something, right? Jun 24 21:54:10 iirc the time message via GSM has a really weird format, and also some unexpected bits. And if you maybe are forwarded to another host or sth... dunno Jun 24 21:54:47 messerting: (init) yes Jun 24 21:54:56 DocScrutinizer: the "ntpd" that comes with openntpd doesn't support the -q flag... Jun 24 21:55:06 ooops Jun 24 21:55:30 so maybe it still has ntpdate or ntptime or sth like that as separate command Jun 24 21:56:59 DocScrutinizer: Hm, only ntp* command is ntpd (according to tab completion) Jun 24 21:57:05 from ntpd manpage: >> -q Exit the ntpd just after the first time the clock is set. This behavior mimics that of the ntpdate pro- gram, which is to be retired. The -g and -x options can be used with this option. Jun 24 21:58:30 openntpd is openbsd's replacement to "real" ntpd. It's far less advanced Jun 24 21:59:23 so why we got an openntpd pkg instead of the "real" good stuff Jun 24 21:59:23 Well, I'm removing openntpd now. will rely on the internal clock. Jun 24 22:05:37 s Jun 24 22:05:46 did you guys get that? Jun 24 22:06:32 the s? Jun 24 22:06:34 DocScrutinizer: did you get what i just wrote or did my damn connect crap out again? Jun 24 22:07:05 [2011-06-25 00:03:10] s Jun 24 22:07:06 [2011-06-25 00:03:19] did you guys get that? Jun 24 22:07:14 that's all Jun 24 22:07:27 damnit Jun 24 22:07:28 ok Jun 24 22:07:32 I saw a discussion about this "asked for lock code after reflash thing" here recently and maybe this information could be useful somehow for somebody: I just flashed roofs and I was asked for it... Jun 24 22:07:32 here goes again Jun 24 22:08:00 MohammadAG: yo Jun 24 22:08:08 I saw your enhanced lock and almost backflipped with joy. You asked for 'suggestions'. If I may be so bold, I suggest a major enhancement would be an option of unlocking with double click of power button. Jun 24 22:08:21 NIN101: it been enabled before you flashed? Jun 24 22:08:25 yes Jun 24 22:08:26 i.e. double click already locks the screen. Jun 24 22:08:36 current I press power once while the screen is locked and it shows the 'lock' screen. Jun 24 22:08:37 NIN101: thanks for reporting Jun 24 22:08:50 add an option that allows me to press power button once on lock screen to unlock. Jun 24 22:09:21 tl;dr, map power button to 'unlock' phone on lock screen. Jun 24 22:09:37 thank you for your time and effort. Jun 24 22:09:42 I O U 1 BEER Jun 24 22:10:35 MohammadAG doesn't enjoy beer ;-) Jun 24 22:11:11 uh...milk? Jun 24 22:11:13 who said so? :P Jun 24 22:11:25 double press to unlock? completely doable Jun 24 22:11:55 MohammadAG: i know! Jun 24 22:11:56 is N9 using accelerometer or ts to do it? Jun 24 22:12:10 proximity for sure Jun 24 22:12:18 do what? Jun 24 22:12:22 that sucks Jun 24 22:12:27 double-tap unlock Jun 24 22:12:33 ooh Jun 24 22:12:35 you have to keep ts on all the time Jun 24 22:13:03 what is the quiescent current of a crapacitiv ts? Jun 24 22:13:15 good question, sane concept uses lis302 as touchscreen probably has no doubleclick detect Jun 24 22:13:46 if they have lis302 or similar Jun 24 22:14:00 plus correct hw IRQ line Jun 24 22:14:04 on the order of uA I'd think Jun 24 22:14:21 depends Jun 24 22:14:21 does N900 have irq line? Jun 24 22:14:22 DocScrutinizer: you're, as usual, being optimistic! Jun 24 22:14:23 physically Jun 24 22:14:29 yes Jun 24 22:14:37 even 2 ;-D Jun 24 22:14:39 "worse is good" Jun 24 22:15:23 btw N900 has r-ts which doesn't need any power on idle, and also creates irq - usually Jun 24 22:15:50 no doubleclick detect though Jun 24 22:16:18 so you always wake cpu when device is in your pocket while jogging Jun 24 22:16:41 that's why you completely lock the screen Jun 24 22:17:31 ShadowJK, double tap afaik Jun 24 22:17:50 DocScrutinizer, from description of N9, it seems it ignores double-tap if it's in pocket (proximity sensor?) Jun 24 22:18:13 possible Jun 24 22:18:19 DocScrutinizer, got any pointers to the driver's name? Jun 24 22:18:32 which one? Jun 24 22:18:57 N9 touchscreen? Jun 24 22:19:15 might be interesting Jun 24 22:19:33 I've seen something, darn, I forgot Jun 24 22:20:12 somebody string'ed the image Jun 24 22:20:47 ok Jun 24 22:20:49 gtg Jun 24 22:20:49 Interesting 'next sensor in phone' - that's being pushed - I have a sample of a 1.6mm*1.6mm I2C temperature sensor - $1.5@1K Jun 24 22:20:54 Non-contact Jun 24 22:21:15 "next sensor"? Jun 24 22:21:25 non-contact means distance? Jun 24 22:21:30 yes Jun 24 22:21:31 IR Jun 24 22:21:38 All in a nice easy to use package. Jun 24 22:21:43 TI (which now seems down) Jun 24 22:21:47 cool, thermometer for detecting flu ;-P Jun 24 22:21:47 I guess for face sensing Jun 24 22:22:19 MohammadAG: also some bro suggested the status bar could be visable in task manager screen. Jun 24 22:22:20 DocScrutinizer: cool indeed Jun 24 22:22:25 food for thought Jun 24 22:22:26 seem that contactless swipe sensor? Jun 24 22:22:30 bb Jun 24 22:22:33 :q Jun 24 22:22:34 know your phone will report you to the WHO directly Jun 24 22:22:38 s/know/now Jun 24 22:22:49 * ShadowJK has a "normal" non-IR i2c temp sensor with 0.0625C resolution that can tell the difference between human moving within 2m and human moving away from within 2m Jun 24 22:23:19 :) Jun 24 22:23:38 Atleast when the readings are interpreted by human staring at gnuplot :P Jun 24 22:23:47 http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/tmp006.html Jun 24 22:23:53 ;-D Jun 24 22:25:22 a touchless thermometer of sufficient precision could indeed become a nice gimmick Jun 24 22:25:50 I want one with <10 degree FOV Jun 24 22:26:14 ShadowJK: I want a hundred pixel one Jun 24 22:26:22 yeah or that Jun 24 22:26:32 You can put a hole in front of it. Jun 24 22:26:33 But I decided that actual arrays are too expensive Jun 24 22:26:36 Of course Jun 24 22:26:38 yeah Jun 24 22:26:55 though I've seen a 6 pixel one that was kinda affordable Jun 24 22:26:57 There are some awesome thermal cameras out there. Jun 24 22:27:09 a 6 pixel what? Jun 24 22:27:51 http://urfin.soup.io/post/141032053/via-Geek-And-Poke-G Jun 24 22:27:54 * DocScrutinizer ponders contraception app Jun 24 22:28:21 Shapeshifter, 6 pixel infrared temperature sensor Jun 24 22:29:10 basically 6 IR sensors in one package, with 90 deg vertical and something smaller than 90 deg field-of-view in the other direction Jun 24 22:29:54 .. and detecting the polarization of the IR ... Jun 24 22:30:05 dunno whats that good for, but someone will find out :P Jun 24 22:30:11 I've seen people mount them on servos to pan&scan, building up a crude image Jun 24 22:30:43 ah Jun 24 22:34:16 RING RIIINNGG... "Hello?" "Good morning, this is your contraception app, please keep the phone at your ear until the beep ends! Beeeeeeeeeeeep" Jun 24 22:36:27 it gives you brain cancer because it forces you to stare at the phone for years? Jun 24 22:40:12 can I use latest maemo in N810 device? Jun 24 22:40:21 Maemo5? no Jun 24 22:40:50 There was Mer, and then came MeeGo Jun 24 22:41:34 and meego's chances to ever get on N8x0 are... :-S Jun 24 22:41:44 oh, it's already there Jun 24 22:41:50 really? Jun 24 22:41:51 it of course depends on your definition of meego. Jun 24 22:41:53 oh Jun 24 22:42:02 hah Jun 24 22:43:34 Mer seemed like a better candidate for the N8x0 Jun 24 22:44:02 Would be probably more sensible to try do a meego core + xfce onto N8x0 Jun 24 22:44:07 an updated n810 would be great Jun 24 22:44:10 N910 Jun 24 22:44:17 woop, just bought an N900, any good starting points? Jun 24 22:44:28 congrats Atarii Jun 24 22:44:35 thanks :) Jun 24 22:45:03 for learning about the device ? Jun 24 22:45:43 yea, I had a 770 a while back, so just need a refresher really. internettablettalk still good? Jun 24 22:46:17 less good than in the 770 days Jun 24 22:46:17 mostly Jun 24 22:46:26 touchĂ© =) Jun 24 22:46:52 anyone betting on how long the N9/N950 will remain on the market? Jun 24 22:46:59 i remember people actually talking bout linuxy stuff on itt Jun 24 22:47:20 anyone used the modified injection enabled N900 drivers? Jun 24 22:49:21 No one can ever predict Nokia. but from the little I know about N9/N950, they are definitely less good that N900 Jun 24 22:49:54 good is subjective .. they have few advantages (and also some disadvantages) Jun 24 22:50:49 microsoft is a cancer Jun 24 22:51:02 * cehteh thinks 1GB ram is finally sufficient Jun 24 22:51:21 sufficient for yesterday's handheld! Jun 24 22:51:41 heh well you can max that out for sure Jun 24 22:52:00 but the 256MB on the n900 are maxed out when booted ... Jun 24 22:52:00 I do have to admit that it looks like one of the largest values in a handheld Jun 24 22:52:09 The N900 was certainly less good than the N810. Jun 24 22:52:11 i have constantly around 200MB in swap Jun 24 22:52:30 and that it's nice to see someone giving importance to RAM instead of more clock speed. Jun 24 22:52:31 so 1GB means no swapping and still some headroom for more demanding apps Jun 24 22:53:12 more interesting, large cache! Jun 24 22:53:18 yes Jun 24 22:53:42 the cache size is larger than n900? Jun 24 22:53:43 I'm sure the memory bandwidth will still be terrible. Jun 24 22:54:01 derf: compared to flash bandwidth? :) Jun 24 22:54:13 Maybe not _that_ terrible. Jun 24 22:54:24 derf: it is the same Jun 24 22:54:58 i have no idea how much the memory bandwidth is .. but mmc/sd is terribly in sense of bandwidth and moreover latency/tps Jun 24 22:55:30 the n9 with certainly peform 3 times better with the same workload than the n900 Jun 24 22:55:40 ?? Jun 24 22:56:05 no way =) Jun 24 22:56:10 But it's not got the same workload Jun 24 22:56:17 hey my n900 is constantly sapping Jun 24 22:56:20 swapping Jun 24 22:56:28 add more memory Jun 24 22:56:29 ;) Jun 24 22:56:36 * SpeedEvil pondered that. Jun 24 22:56:43 I can't find anyone who will ship the memory Jun 24 22:56:56 SpeedEvil: what size and how many do you need? Jun 24 22:56:58 hey and wait until people find out how to overclock it to 2GHZ :P Jun 24 22:57:14 ds3: 168 ball for POP 512M Jun 24 22:57:36 SpeedEvil: for the OMAP3530 POP right? Jun 24 22:57:40 yes Jun 24 22:57:55 SpeedEvil: if I get the memory, can you do the bootloader work to support it? Jun 24 22:57:58 heh .. desoldering the omap isnt hard enough .. lets repackage it :) Jun 24 22:58:07 which reminds me. where's the RAM on the N900?\ Jun 24 22:58:09 desoldering the OMAP is trivial Jun 24 22:58:13 is it inside the SOC? Jun 24 22:58:19 Hurrian: yes Jun 24 22:58:20 Hurrian: No - it's soldered on the top Jun 24 22:58:21 Hurrian: it is on TOP of the SoC Jun 24 22:58:36 well that counts as yes, somewhat :) Jun 24 22:58:39 the fffffffffffffff, nokia meant it literally? Jun 24 22:58:53 SpeedEvil: I should be able to get the memory, I just don't have time to do the SW work for it Jun 24 22:58:59 "the system memory and onenand are ontop of the omap3 AP" Jun 24 22:59:11 Is the N900 OneNAND? Jun 24 22:59:16 yes. Jun 24 22:59:28 Ohhh it is a samsung part Jun 24 22:59:30 The easiest way to do it is probably to get a new SOC (a 720MHz one) , and in a nitrogen atmosphere reflow the POP RAM on top of it Jun 24 22:59:45 then reflow this onto the board with hot air and plenty of preheat underneath Jun 24 22:59:54 I can get the part replaced... got one done as a test job already Jun 24 23:00:08 yes something i do daily in my kitchen :P Jun 24 23:00:11 speedevil, in before loads of people order omap3530 samples ;) Jun 24 23:00:13 I haven't investigated the bootloader hacking required to get it working. Jun 24 23:00:17 is the N900 using the secure feature of the 3430? Jun 24 23:00:21 You can't sample it Jun 24 23:00:31 speedevil, i got one from TI Jun 24 23:00:34 SpeedEvil: you need to get x-loader to properly configure the memory Jun 24 23:00:43 ds3: Doesn't really matter - once you solder on your own 3530 - you pretty much own it. Jun 24 23:00:47 the ones I can get are plain NAND though so you'll need to redo a few drivers Jun 24 23:00:48 And yes. Jun 24 23:01:03 Umm - plain NAND won't work so well. Jun 24 23:01:09 Most software needs RAM. Jun 24 23:01:11 ds3, there's a tiny ROM inside the OMAP3 that downloads code from USB interface Jun 24 23:01:23 no no...there are some minor funny business with the 3430 part that is disabled/unsupported on the 3530 part Jun 24 23:01:33 what's wrong with plain NAND? Jun 24 23:01:44 ds3: The chip is ROM+RAM Jun 24 23:02:08 SpeedEvil: no no, you misunderstood - I mean I can get RAM + NAND. I was just told the current part is RAM + OneNAND (samsung) Jun 24 23:02:13 Ah Jun 24 23:02:21 I can even get RAM only Jun 24 23:02:24 oh, now i know what those pads on top of the 3530 are for Jun 24 23:02:25 Alas - it's an idle rumination. Jun 24 23:02:34 but then you need to mod the board to boot off the eMMC Jun 24 23:02:49 ds3: Even given the parts, and the tools, I'm unlikely to have the time to omplete it. Jun 24 23:02:53 ds3, can be done in NOLO Jun 24 23:02:58 (actually - I probably have the tools) Jun 24 23:03:01 SpeedEvil: ah :( oh well... Jun 24 23:03:07 I just did basically that on the BB Jun 24 23:03:10 Though nitrogen reflow would be nice. Jun 24 23:03:21 Hurrian: but no sources for the NOLO...makes it harder Jun 24 23:03:27 all we have to do is just feed NOLO a complete EMMC image and flash some other bootloader Jun 24 23:03:33 ds3: Well - yes - and no. Jun 24 23:03:45 exactly what does nolo do? Jun 24 23:03:57 ds3: It's just a 'normal' bootloader then - no need to put nonlo bak on Jun 24 23:03:58 run the kernel image and display splash? Jun 24 23:04:00 Hurrian: no, there are sysboot pins that may need to be reconfigured so the processor will pull the boot data off the eMMC instead of the NAND Jun 24 23:04:33 ds3, ah, sorry, dont know much about ARM boot process Jun 24 23:04:35 is the eMMC on MMC1? Jun 24 23:04:45 ds3: yes Jun 24 23:04:54 Nice Jun 24 23:04:55 I don't recall which is which actually Jun 24 23:05:04 speedevil, mmc1 should be right Jun 24 23:05:20 maemo 5/nolo does something to change around the names Jun 24 23:05:21 Hmmm so Nokia put in extra parts for the uSD slot? Jun 24 23:06:13 MMC1 can operate natively on 3.x volt... MMC2/MMC3 are 1.8V only so they require extra parts for an external slot Jun 24 23:06:15 ds3, yes, they just put in a uSD slot despite the N900 having a massive 32GB Jun 24 23:06:28 mmcblk0 is emmc Jun 24 23:06:28 But if that means it's mmc0 Jun 24 23:06:28 BB=blackberry? Jun 24 23:06:28 Oh - beagleboard Jun 24 23:06:42 BB == beagleboard Jun 24 23:06:53 I don't recall any extra parts along the SD wiring other than ESD protection Jun 24 23:07:01 There are _lots_ of ESD protection Jun 24 23:07:15 ds3, think you can add another SD slot? Jun 24 23:07:20 I suspect they are using software trickery Jun 24 23:07:28 Hurrian: nope...that requires a new PCB Jun 24 23:07:32 Hurrian: Sure. Unsolder the EMMC Jun 24 23:07:38 memory is easy to do Jun 24 23:07:45 And maybe a teeny amount of software tweaks Jun 24 23:08:00 In principle you can just do a SDIO card expander Jun 24 23:08:11 SDIO->7 microSD Jun 24 23:08:52 that should just work assuming there is enough power Jun 24 23:09:04 Can someone help me? Jun 24 23:09:13 angelox: Do you require CPR?. Jun 24 23:09:27 sorry,cpr ? Jun 24 23:09:51 It might be a good idea if you ask your question. Jun 24 23:10:04 Otherwise it's kinda hard to tell. Sorry. Jun 24 23:10:19 I installed kernel-power and my camera,bluetooth and lock button doesn't work correctly now Jun 24 23:11:22 uname -r: 2.6.28.10-power47 Jun 24 23:11:51 thats strange, works for me Jun 24 23:12:01 * merlin1991 starts to hate the twitter api Jun 24 23:12:15 installed anything else? .. rebooted? Jun 24 23:12:53 installed with "apt-get install kernel-power-settings kernel-power-bootimg" nothing else..rebooted 4 times Jun 24 23:15:34 remembering that my phone is flashed with rootfs and kernel from PR 1.3,nothing else... Jun 24 23:20:51 * angelox sings "Help...i need somebody, Help...." Jun 24 23:22:44 hehe .. no idea Jun 24 23:22:59 should i flash my phone with all parts(not only kernel and rootfs) ? Jun 24 23:23:14 well using apt-get directly can have some bad sideffects Jun 24 23:23:37 run a ham update and see if it fixes anything Jun 24 23:23:53 well and what exactly is wrong? Jun 24 23:24:17 bluetooth gives me errors,camera too and lock button simply doesn't do anything Jun 24 23:24:24 what errors Jun 24 23:24:43 try to reinstall the kernel with HAM Jun 24 23:24:54 prolly some dependency/module not installed? no idea Jun 24 23:25:01 fail in operation (translated from my language, don't know if that's correct) Jun 24 23:25:07 what tells dmesg? Jun 24 23:25:10 ham? command not found Jun 24 23:25:28 beacon? Jun 24 23:25:28 hildon application manager Jun 24 23:25:30 hildon application manager .. the slow gui thing Jun 24 23:25:54 ahh ok,that i know :) Jun 24 23:26:01 at least once in a while and for critical updates you should use it Jun 24 23:26:23 it sprinkles some fairy dust over apt Jun 24 23:26:48 just to say,i'm running a modified kernel,with kexecboot at the power up...i configured it to use that kernel when i boot maemo Jun 24 23:27:16 kexec? .. i didnt even known that thats supported on the device Jun 24 23:27:26 disable kexec, do a cold rebot Jun 24 23:28:04 flashing original kernel works,but if i flash original kernel,and install kernel-power the problem is there too Jun 24 23:28:24 kexec works in all of my friend's phones..only on my one no :( Jun 24 23:28:24 sure? Jun 24 23:28:35 * angelox thinks that his n900 doesn't love his owner Jun 24 23:28:36 i never tried kexec Jun 24 23:29:01 disable it and see Jun 24 23:29:11 disable = flash original kernel Jun 24 23:29:19 that may be well the cause, missing to initialize some hardware, keep some stale registers whatever Jun 24 23:29:27 no .. just no kexec Jun 24 23:29:40 i have power-47 too but no kexec Jun 24 23:29:51 i didnt even know its ported and in the repositories Jun 24 23:29:57 apt-get install --reinstall kernel kernel-flasher Jun 24 23:30:06 i'll try it ok? Jun 24 23:30:14 kexec would be in kexec-tools, and requires kernel-power Jun 24 23:30:24 disable kexec and do a cold reboot i saied .. is that so hard? Jun 24 23:30:28 and angelox, the system is probably not seeing the gpio's Jun 24 23:30:52 Hurrian,maybe,but my friends use the same zImage as mine and work for they Jun 24 23:30:55 cold reboot == remove battery Jun 24 23:30:58 cehteh: Cold reboot? Jun 24 23:31:00 ah ok Jun 24 23:31:08 (after turning it off) Jun 24 23:31:15 and no charger/usb connected Jun 24 23:31:29 how to disable kexec,i only know do it doing "apt-get install --reinstall kernel kernel-flasher" Jun 24 23:31:31 Texrat, silly Astros and their lame timezone. Jun 24 23:31:43 how did you installed kexec? Jun 24 23:31:50 its for sure not default Jun 24 23:32:10 cehteh: flashing a modified kernel,that haves it Jun 24 23:32:21 btw,i'm not using kexec sorry,it's kexecboot Jun 24 23:32:31 so it goes into kernel iirc Jun 24 23:32:49 eh? Jun 24 23:32:55 you know what kexec is? Jun 24 23:32:59 yes Jun 24 23:33:22 well i cant even find kexec-tools in the repositories Jun 24 23:33:23 but kexecboot is a bit different isn't? Jun 24 23:33:35 because that's compiled by SHR group... Jun 24 23:33:49 that isn't on the repositories Jun 24 23:33:50 i dont know it? Jun 24 23:33:57 wtf kernel do you use there Jun 24 23:34:12 i can give you the link of that Jun 24 23:34:48 btw,sorry for saying something wrong,i'm a lot confused with that too (newbie in bootloaders...) Jun 24 23:35:46 so i asked,should i coldflash my N900 to do everything correctly now? Jun 24 23:37:45 there is a power-47 in some of the community repos (extras-devel? lemme check) Jun 24 23:38:18 if you install some non working kernel for somewhere else then dont be surprised ... even the normal power kernel comes with no warranty :P Jun 24 23:40:30 you didn't understood Jun 24 23:40:47 s/understood/understand/ Jun 24 23:40:48 angelox meant: you didn't understand Jun 24 23:41:10 well ... i dont care about your problems, i am running the power-47 kernel without problems Jun 24 23:41:24 ok,so should i coldflash my phone? Jun 24 23:41:36 and install power-47 kernel Jun 24 23:42:20 just deinstall the 3rd party kernel you currently have installed and go back to the stock nokia kernel Jun 24 23:42:27 and then check if anything works Jun 24 23:42:59 everything will work Jun 24 23:43:05 ok Jun 24 23:43:18 so why do you need the power-47 kernel then? Jun 24 23:43:35 well and then from where did you get it? Jun 24 23:43:47 to use kexec feature Jun 24 23:43:58 i get it by that command i said Jun 24 23:43:59 m( Jun 24 23:44:08 apt-get install kernel-power-settings kernel-power-bootimg Jun 24 23:44:09 for what do you need kexec? Jun 24 23:44:13 http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power Jun 24 23:44:44 meego? Jun 24 23:44:45 i'm a embedded developer,and i help to develop SHR(or at least,i try) and i need 2 distributions on my phone Jun 24 23:45:21 ok Jun 24 23:45:38 well no idea why your phone doesnt work with the power kernel Jun 24 23:45:44 see,i'm now with stock nokia kernel Jun 24 23:45:50 figure that out .. dmesg etc Jun 24 23:46:03 can you give me the correct steps to install power kernel ? Jun 24 23:46:16 i'll try again if you can help me Jun 24 23:46:17 use HAM Jun 24 23:46:30 using extras-devel ? Jun 24 23:47:02 extras-testing maybe i dont know which repo Jun 24 23:47:22 yes the page i pasted above tells -testing Jun 24 23:47:24 read it Jun 24 23:48:05 Have you problem with bluetooth on v47 and not on v46? See this: Jun 24 23:48:05 http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=764 Jun 24 23:48:48 thank you,i installed with -devel so that could be the problem... Jun 24 23:49:05 btw,invalid link Jun 24 23:49:22 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=71879: Jun 24 23:49:28 well read yourself Jun 24 23:49:39 i am out Jun 24 23:49:58 ok,thanks by all Jun 24 23:55:46 even the clock app reminds of the webos Jun 24 23:56:02 which I guess is nice, cause I was having impure thoughts about the webos UI... Jun 25 00:08:20 "some implementations of pulseaudio have a difficult time dealign with non-44k frequencies" hmm Jun 25 00:10:12 There's a ball player called Wandy Rodriguez. Jun 25 00:10:35 I'm pretty sure pronouncing it as "Wand-y" is incorrect. Jun 25 00:13:03 i would donate to a faster pulseaudio project Jun 25 00:13:16 heh Jun 25 00:13:26 I have to admit, pulseaudio works pretty darn well on N900 Jun 25 00:13:28 compared to like meego Jun 25 00:13:56 * ShadowJK started his midsummer holiday with fixing a Vista computer, then loading MeeGo on his spare N900 Jun 25 00:15:23 heh Jun 25 00:15:25 btw Jun 25 00:15:37 Nokia just said that launchpad n950 application deadline is july 31st Jun 25 00:15:55 launchpad = you're a company? Jun 25 00:16:09 technically there's launchpad for individuals Jun 25 00:16:14 but for some reason they hate me Jun 25 00:16:28 * ShadowJK wonders if he can create a company before 31st next month Jun 25 00:16:55 July 31st to give away 92,000k? Jun 25 00:16:57 *g* Jun 25 00:16:59 My outside-actual-job activities last year and this year will have volume taking me close to the point where I have to Jun 25 00:17:08 cause I've been waiting since early this year to get mine approved and yet doc got his application approved on a single overnight Jun 25 00:17:20 Email support Jun 25 00:17:27 did yesterday, no answer yet Jun 25 00:17:49 doc got his approved? Jun 25 00:18:07 The bastard. Jun 25 00:18:11 the one where according to himself he put "blablabla", yes. Jun 25 00:18:17 _literally_ blablabla Jun 25 00:18:21 eh, DocScrutinizer? ;) Jun 25 00:18:54 I thought 6 hours ago he was complaining that he has nothing else than "blablabla" to put there and had no possibility of getting approved Jun 25 00:19:24 Oh, DocScrutinizer. Jun 25 00:19:27 You so silly. Jun 25 00:19:58 I hereby swear that if ever get the change to edit my 400+ words application, i will delete them all and put "blablabla".

Jun 25 00:23:30 nepotism :) Jun 25 00:23:43 It's how I'd rule if I ruled the world Jun 25 00:24:39 wikipedia, you always surprise me. Jun 25 00:24:44 hm?

Jun 25 00:25:39 http://goput.it/str/hp4.png Jun 25 00:25:52 okay, how's that for a lock screen? Jun 25 00:26:26 I was impressed by Meego N900 CE's lock screen Jun 25 00:26:40 shadowjk, the drag to lock one? Jun 25 00:26:43 both impressed and frustrated Jun 25 00:26:45 yeah Jun 25 00:26:54 it was slow on mine for some reason Jun 25 00:26:58 cool nonetheless Jun 25 00:27:10 frustrated because it appeared randomly, impressed by the drag key of unlocking and place key in the lock Jun 25 00:27:27 oh yeah, the random appearances Jun 25 00:27:33 tis derpy Jun 25 00:27:36 Oh, every animation, every transition are just silk smooth for me Jun 25 00:27:42 atleast when I compare to Maemo5 Jun 25 00:27:50 animations++ Jun 25 00:28:14 First thing I noticed, apps take fucking ages to appear, but you can swipe menus with silk smoothness while waiting :P Jun 25 00:28:41 shadowjk, settings is probably the worst offender Jun 25 00:28:47 hm? Jun 25 00:28:53 holy fuck is the settings app slow Jun 25 00:29:11 It just seems mostly broken to me Jun 25 00:29:31 "clocks" and calendar took much longer to start than settings Jun 25 00:29:44 ~seen pupnik Jun 25 00:29:55 pupnik <~pupnik@p54B2A321.dip.t-dialin.net> was last seen on IRC in channel #maemo, 27d 14h 55m 43s ago, saying: 'o/'. Jun 25 00:30:16 Awesomeness: zypper install gcc make Jun 25 00:31:01 iostat shows about 1.5Mbyte/s of reads while apps are loading, at an average latency/wait of 5ms, but there are 20kbyte/s of writes, at an average latency of 500ms Jun 25 00:31:17 The problem with flash :/ Jun 25 00:32:54 javispedro, haven't seen him anywhere lately Jun 25 00:33:21 yep :S Jun 25 00:34:28 hi Jun 25 00:34:50 hi Jun 25 00:37:42 http://goput.it/str/2ht.png Jun 25 00:37:46 it's sexy time Jun 25 00:38:01 MohammadAG , what do you think of my proposed lock screens? Jun 25 00:39:17 harmattan? Jun 25 00:40:05 Sexy indeed, where do the media controls go? :P Jun 25 00:40:17 wait, i have a screen with that Jun 25 00:40:23 http://goput.it/str/hp4.png Jun 25 00:40:32 http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1038410&postcount=23 Jun 25 00:40:38 beford, no, harmattan has always-on screen or something, benefit of oled Jun 25 00:41:23 oh, that's new for me, enhaced lockscreen, does it work landscape/portrait? Jun 25 00:42:47 I think it's mockup Jun 25 00:43:01 yes, I'm reading the post now heh Jun 25 00:43:55 what are we talking about, MAG's app or my mockups? Jun 25 00:44:50 anyways, in my mockups i made sure that you can use it with one hand, the controls being available to your hands either in one side or on all sides Jun 25 00:44:53 your mockups for MohammadAG app :P Jun 25 00:45:01 anyone like it? Jun 25 00:46:02 anyways, a portrait unlock screen would likely look a lot like the iPhone's unlock screen Jun 25 00:46:05 Hurrian: where did you get that wallpaper from / is it available? Jun 25 00:46:13 merlin1991: wallbase.cc Jun 25 00:46:22 Yeah, I'd like media controls on lock screen. That'd be awesome Jun 25 00:46:42 looks nice Hurrian Jun 25 00:46:47 :) Jun 25 00:47:26 MohammadAG , if you'd like a slider instead of a tap-to-unlock, i can design that too Jun 25 00:47:41 hm the tagcloud on wallbase.cc, I guess the main users are male Jun 25 00:48:18 http://wallbase.cc/wallpaper/1112640 Jun 25 00:51:17 Hurrian: I think there should be some sort of border between the "title bar" time & date and the mafw controls Jun 25 00:51:34 also whatabout fading the notification area a lil towards the edge? Jun 25 00:53:43 ah, ok Jun 25 00:54:23 i think the mafw controls will be fine as the date+time bar shouldn't respond to taps Jun 25 00:55:04 however, double tapping on the mafw bar (except for the play/pause prev/next area) will unlock and open the media player Jun 25 00:56:54 So my use case is this: At work I am frequently in a high-noise environment. I have professional hearing protection cups, with audio-input. I often connect N900 to audio-input. When someone wants to talk to me, I either press volume-down on N900 often enough to mute, or rip out the cable. Would be cool to be able to pause it quickly :-) Jun 25 00:58:01 shadowjk, i wanted something like hold+ on my psp - you can control the music even when it's locked Jun 25 00:58:19 probably the solution would be in the camera button Jun 25 00:58:27 a full press maybe Jun 25 00:58:31 when lock Jun 25 00:58:31 ShadowJK: "headphone daemon"? Jun 25 00:58:41 or bus daemon or whatever it was called Jun 25 00:58:56 merlin1991 : http://goput.it/str/wwa.png Jun 25 01:03:01 Yeah, I'd like media controls on lock screen. That'd be awesome Jun 25 01:03:14 http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1038328&postcount=1 Jun 25 01:03:17 actually I should get some avrcp thing Jun 25 01:03:52 MohammadAG : not very viewable without a dark overlay on the background ;) Jun 25 01:04:00 Hurrian, a sliding design would be interesting :) Jun 25 01:04:08 sure, coming right up :) Jun 25 01:06:33 k, let's try a quick mockup Jun 25 01:09:48 http://goput.it/9tt.png Jun 25 01:10:45 let's try this :D Jun 25 01:10:46 MohammadAG : done the slider mockup :) Jun 25 01:20:45 Hurrian, http://i52.tinypic.com/2cosrcl.jpg Jun 25 01:21:33 * MohammadAG ponders how to implement that slide to unlock Jun 25 01:22:12 MAG :) Jun 25 01:22:23 now, can you custom-style the unlock button? Jun 25 01:22:35 sure Jun 25 01:22:38 i think it would look better if it was flat black and translucent Jun 25 01:22:43 familiar with Qt Stylesheets? Jun 25 01:22:49 uhh, nope Jun 25 01:22:52 or at least the colours Jun 25 01:23:12 i know jack about the following: CSS, JS, C, C++, Python Jun 25 01:23:16 that's just background-color: rgba(100, 100, 100, 150) in the pic Jun 25 01:23:34 surely you know the colours you want :p Jun 25 01:23:39 MAG, shouldn't it be 0,0,0,200 Jun 25 01:23:47 black + translucency Jun 25 01:25:17 on a side note, hmm, i wonder how you'll implement the slide Jun 25 01:25:50 i guess the slide position corresponds to a number, say 9000, and when the slide gets to 9000, it sends the unlock command Jun 25 01:26:12 well, I don't think I can style the stock Qt slider Jun 25 01:26:35 hmm, and the slide position should only increment/decrement by 1, so that you don't just press the words "slide to unlock" and it'll unlock Jun 25 01:27:20 MAG, would this help? http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/26895-Slider-Style-sheet Jun 25 01:28:03 thanks! Jun 25 01:28:51 http://i56.tinypic.com/11hqfcg.jpg Jun 25 01:28:58 is that the colour you wanted? Jun 25 01:29:23 Yes! Jun 25 01:30:06 whee cssu maemo16 push here we gogogo! Jun 25 01:30:46 nah, the lockscreen stays outside the CSSU since we can install it from extras Jun 25 01:31:04 k Jun 25 01:31:30 should I make the top colour solid or should I keep it as a gradient? Jun 25 01:31:51 solid Jun 25 01:32:17 you know, like the top and bottom boxes in a movie ;) Jun 25 01:32:25 so yeah, make it like the bottom Jun 25 01:32:57 * MohammadAG saves this in his IRC logs Jun 25 01:32:58 background: qlineargradient(spread:pad, x1:0.011, y1:0, x2:0, y2:1, stop:0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 255), stop:1 rgba(36, 36, 36, 0)) Jun 25 01:33:53 the CSS abuse from qt is spectacular Jun 25 01:34:48 lol Jun 25 01:35:38 still, I guess there's a long way until we get to the "filter: progid:RandomMicrosoftCrap.DirectX.Transform(morecrap)" Jun 25 01:36:27 hmm, the button turned out darker for some reason Jun 25 01:37:23 MohammadAG , which button, the MAFW controls? Jun 25 01:37:46 i mean the MAFW Now Playing aread? Jun 25 01:38:01 no, sec Jun 25 01:38:49 http://i54.tinypic.com/21ch28p.jpg Jun 25 01:38:58 ah Jun 25 01:39:13 and both are rgba(0,0,0,200) right? Jun 25 01:39:18 that's... odd Jun 25 01:39:53 oh Jun 25 01:39:54 silly me Jun 25 01:40:00 one's 100 and the other is 200 Jun 25 01:42:13 Hurrian, http://i55.tinypic.com/b9gf8o.jpg Jun 25 01:43:50 better :) planning on adding the padding to the top? Jun 25 01:44:03 it shouldn't be that close to the screen edge Jun 25 01:44:32 thought about it, but the bezel on the N900 makes it look good :P Jun 25 01:45:40 k Jun 25 01:46:12 lemme up a binary Jun 25 01:46:25 http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/enhanced-lockscreen Jun 25 01:46:34 ignore the 1MB size, it's cause I didn't remove the old wallpaper Jun 25 01:47:26 MohammadAG: any chance to help me with my camera-app not letting me use the internal memory? Jun 25 01:47:56 did you ask in nicolai's thread? Jun 25 01:49:30 Hurrian, the lockscreen reminds me of Harmattan for some reason Jun 25 01:49:45 that's odd, i've never seen harmattan's lockscreen before Jun 25 01:49:50 probably cause of this http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/08/10x08108h3434tf.jpg Jun 25 01:50:33 isn't that meego's home screen? Jun 25 01:50:49 yeah, but they look similar Jun 25 01:51:01 that was probably Harmattan 0.1 Jun 25 01:51:30 MohammadAG: which thread? Jun 25 01:51:31 now MAG, time to implement the message count? Jun 25 01:51:48 Hurrian, no idea how tbh :p Jun 25 01:51:54 Hurrian, got the slider handle? Jun 25 01:52:08 wait, lemme get it out of photoshop Jun 25 01:52:31 the_lord, sec Jun 25 01:52:43 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=70870 Jun 25 01:53:48 MAG: http://goput.it/qay.png Jun 25 01:54:26 did you try the binary btw? Jun 25 01:54:43 nyet, lemme dl and run it Jun 25 01:56:11 whoa Jun 25 01:56:13 that's cool Jun 25 01:56:33 however, i have no song playing and it just says unknown song unknown artist Jun 25 01:56:37 MohammadAG: let me see Jun 25 01:56:54 that bar should be hidden when there's no song playing Jun 25 01:57:43 nice unlock animation BTW Jun 25 01:58:19 finally cell phones can translate text in your enviroment: http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2010/05/translate-real-world-with-google.html Jun 25 01:58:51 MAFW controls are working properly, that's a plus Jun 25 01:59:50 MAG, all you need to do now is custom-style the buttons Jun 25 02:00:21 when i press them, the GTK buttons appear and it's ugly Jun 25 02:02:08 http://goput.it/2ep.png Jun 25 02:02:12 something like this i guess Jun 25 02:10:08 Hurrian, mind looking at /usr/share/themes/alpha/mediaplayer? Jun 25 02:10:19 see if you can make a pause icon similar to the prev/next icons Jun 25 02:12:05 k Jun 25 02:12:12 LULZSEC: "If President Obama wears a shoe on his head throughout the entirety of his next big speech, we will cease fire on all targets forever." Jun 25 02:15:32 Hurrian, slider done, you can pull in the latest binary Jun 25 02:16:01 the joke has an error though Jun 25 02:16:02 since there's no guarantee that any person or group will never do anything in the name of 'lulzsec' Jun 25 02:18:16 MAG: slider works, not very smooth though, and you still need to put in the fading text Jun 25 02:18:43 Hurrian, that would be Qt, I'm not sure why the stock slider is slow :/ Jun 25 02:19:32 http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20003431-1.html makeup that fools face recognition systems Jun 25 02:20:06 mrdongle: It is a guy in #mtgox trolling with the name lulzecuriti Jun 25 02:20:12 or smthing Jun 25 02:20:34 oh Jun 25 02:21:36 http://goput.it/6ey.png Jun 25 02:21:47 MohammadAG : remade the pause icon Jun 25 02:22:42 thanks Hurrian Jun 25 02:23:29 hey MAG, the slider doesn't go back to the start should you stop dragging it ;P Jun 25 02:24:29 oh, and the slider generally lags behind the finger, you may want to work on that first Jun 25 02:24:43 Hurrian, that would be Qt, I'm not sure why the stock slider is slow :/ Jun 25 02:26:13 :( Jun 25 02:26:14 MohammadAG: nope, nothing there to fix my problem, it's only with the internal memory Jun 25 02:28:15 Hurrian, can you do the same to the play button? Jun 25 02:29:24 sure Jun 25 02:30:12 MohammadAG , what's a QT tickInterval wrt qslider?

This would add a more polished look. Just my humble opinion. Jun 25 02:43:01 MAFW can run in the background without the mediaplayer Jun 25 02:44:59 ah Jun 25 02:45:00 k Jun 25 02:45:54 hide it when it can't see any song then, e.g. right after you start up so it wont show unknown song unknown artist Jun 25 02:49:07 I'll check if there's a renderer in the next version Jun 25 02:52:33 gotta hit the sack for now :p Jun 25 02:57:06 k Jun 25 02:58:17 http://goput.it/6wg.png Jun 25 02:58:28 since a lot of people are asking for a big clock, there it is **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jun 25 02:59:57 2011
