**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Feb 27 02:59:56 2019 Feb 27 03:09:54 Survived reboot. So kernel power v53 has installed correctly, I guess. Feb 27 03:21:09 Reportedly time zones were originally created to use instead of true local time to synchronise railway schedules. Feb 27 03:47:14 Both Linus Torvalds and John Carmack were born close to 1970‑01‑01. Feb 27 06:08:58 I think Torvalds' birthday is supposedly in the source code somewhere. Feb 27 06:09:16 as a magic number that userspace is meant to send to the kernel to cause a reboot or something. Feb 27 06:10:48 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4808748/magic-numbers-of-the-linux-reboot-system-call Feb 27 06:11:01 His kids' too. Feb 27 07:41:58 Apparently my DIY microSIM→nanoSIM conversion succeeded because my now nanoSIM card that began as a miniSIM card in 2009 and was converted to a microSIM card in 2014 seems to work in the LG G5. :-D Feb 27 08:11:40 brolin_empey, what about if the contacts on my minisim are larger than a microsim size :P Feb 27 08:14:00 auenf: Contacts as in electrical contacts or as in persons? Feb 27 08:33:29 elecrical contacts :P Feb 27 08:33:50 although the sim i'm referring to (which i have since replaced) wasnt an USIM anyway Feb 27 08:35:26 ~backupmenu Feb 27 08:35:26 [backupmenu] http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=63975, or one-click install handling dependency issues: http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/et_al/HAM-catalogs/BM.install Feb 27 08:35:28 As the sims have gone through the generations they support different voltages and number of electrical contacts IIRC. Feb 27 08:36:53 yes, and sims prior to USIM arent guaranteed to pickup 3G signals Feb 27 09:05:26 problem: backupmenu doesn't work Feb 27 09:05:34 here is what I did: Feb 27 09:05:47 1 Flashed stock kernel Feb 27 09:06:29 2 Removed all the traces of backupmenu related stuff and made sure that that white menu does not appear when booting keyboard open Feb 27 09:06:54 3 reinstalled backupmenu via link which I got from channel bot Feb 27 09:07:46 4 booted keyboard open, got white bootloader. Selected middle option (the one which should bring up actual backupmenustuff) Feb 27 09:14:14 5 device loads awhile and reboots Feb 27 09:14:50 so where did I go wrong? Why it does not work? Any suggestions? Feb 27 09:15:48 It is starting to seem that I wont be doing any kind of backup of this device Feb 27 09:23:32 going to see what I get with default backup application. Feb 27 11:36:50 This may be of interest for 3D model of battery cover: http://afrodita.zcu.cz/~skala/PUBL/PUBL_2013/2013_3D-Scan-SIGGRAPH-poster-A0.pdf Feb 27 11:42:12 Same people, different publication: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download/doi/10.1.1.696.7915?rep=rep1&type=pdf Feb 27 15:02:52 I think that problem is backupmenu not finding /usr/share/backupmenu/BakupMenuLauncher.item, but I have no idea why. Feb 27 15:18:42 only internal show in bm? Feb 27 15:21:04 both entries are shown, but it doesn't find what it seeks and just reboots Feb 27 15:21:24 so I guess launcher is not found Feb 27 15:21:44 no not the same as this then http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1455798&postcount=1337 Feb 27 15:21:45 my other device states what it is booting Feb 27 15:21:54 s/no/so/ Feb 27 15:21:54 sixwheeledbeast meant: so not the same as this then http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1455798&postcount=1337 Feb 27 15:27:00 might as well try Feb 27 15:27:16 removed find as suggested and recreated symlink Feb 27 15:36:27 well did nothing Feb 27 15:39:23 thanks for suggesting Feb 27 16:08:56 \o/ finally I made a backup. It seems my guess was right. When I place BackupMenuLauncher.item in to /etc/bootmenu.d it worked as expected Feb 27 16:47:58 yet another joke is that my phone refuses to charge :p Feb 27 16:48:52 I suspect it is because flashing stock kernel messed up something. Apt now thinks that kernel power is installed but uname shows it is stock Feb 27 16:49:57 and I guess that will be the state of my backup too, but oh well now I have backup to play with to fix this Feb 27 16:52:37 backup will be an img of the current state. Why would apt care about kp? Feb 27 16:54:24 well it shows that kp is installed but kernel in use is stock Feb 27 16:55:07 I guess I'll have to fix it by hand. Removing kp and all it dependencies and reinstall them again Feb 27 17:05:28 I don't see an issue with having multiple kernels? Doesn't uboot have the option to boot either? Feb 27 17:08:49 I guess it would have but I don't have it Feb 27 17:09:28 then what you think would cause device to not charge anymore? Feb 27 17:10:04 battery just says "no data or battery is not calibrated" Feb 27 17:11:02 if I attach charger when device is turned off it just starts and starts. If I attach charger when it is on, it does nothing Feb 27 17:19:10 what have you installed recently? Feb 27 17:19:20 testing? Feb 27 17:21:09 flashed stock kernel via flasher Feb 27 17:21:31 that is only thing I did more Feb 27 17:31:00 that would probably explain the charging issue then. maybe --reinstall if you feel brave? Feb 27 17:35:43 umm reinstall stock or reinstall kp? Feb 27 17:35:57 or reflash stockä? Feb 27 17:36:08 -ä Feb 27 17:47:16 kp Feb 27 19:03:33 didn't help Feb 27 19:19:04 is the kernel in use? Feb 27 19:19:18 kp Feb 27 19:35:32 nope Feb 27 19:35:48 gonna change full battery now Feb 27 19:39:47 reinstall went smoothly, but stock kernel is still in use Feb 27 19:45:52 hehe n900 is really testing me now. First backuprestore was not very succesfullä Feb 27 19:46:28 whined about timestamps being in the future and resulted unbootable device Feb 27 21:36:16 ok. Charge issue fixed. Removed kernel-power and all its dependencies. Reinstalled them from the notes and reboot. Profit! Feb 27 21:49:45 Ohhh profit. Feb 27 21:52:12 and since backuprestore was also succesfull I had indentical device to test other approach which was "reinstall kernel-power-flasher" instant profit! Feb 27 22:37:19 Everyone loves insta-profit **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Feb 28 02:59:57 2019
