**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 06 02:59:57 2010 Mar 06 11:20:35 My battery last only few howers...how to resolve that?...on the software side? Mar 06 11:21:06 *hours Mar 06 11:21:37 disable all unnecessary services, reduce backlight etc Mar 06 11:23:56 Mar 06 11:26:07 cosmos: perhaps wifi or gps are on? Mar 06 11:27:15 jaacoppi: what says: cat /sys/devices/platform/sc32440_fiq.0/gta02-hdq.0/hdq/current_now ? Mar 06 11:27:41 cosmos: how many are few? Are you using suspend-to-ram? Mar 06 12:31:03 Paul Forester: yes on battery the FR suspends after 40s Mar 06 12:31:36 few hours are 4 or 5 for me Mar 06 12:31:51 and after I have to recharge completely Mar 06 12:32:48 sounds like your battery is broken :( Mar 06 12:32:55 a fully charged CC should last 70 hours without #1024 Mar 06 12:32:59 double with Mar 06 12:33:11 Martix: 5 hours only in suspend? maybe recamping problem? Mar 06 15:27:52 cosmos: could you install bash, then run http://people.openmoko.org/joerg/battery/bq27k-detail, and pastebin the result? Mar 06 15:46:44 hi all Mar 06 15:49:17 DocScrutinizer: http://pastebin.com/uuGNLRMQ Mar 06 15:57:08 cosmos: could you repeat that without USB connected? preferrably after some minutes of suspend Mar 06 18:51:26 cosmos: as for now I can say: your batery seems pretty fresh. echo $(( 6399 * 179 / 1000)) = Nominal Available Capacity of 1145mAh, and it has seen 18 full charge/discharge cycles which is almost like nothing Mar 06 19:01:15 also the maximum current drawn from battery (during the period of reporting, whatever that is) is rather high: 1993 mA. This means more than 7W of power has been dissipated at a certain moment Mar 06 19:02:03 Did it burst into flames at any point? Mar 06 19:02:19 dunno Mar 06 19:02:21 One spike though may not be a meaningful reading I suppose Mar 06 19:02:47 I think the integration window is some 25sec Mar 06 19:03:05 at least 4sec Mar 06 19:03:14 odd. Mar 06 19:03:19 can't recall off top of my head Mar 06 19:04:04 quite odd, yes Mar 06 19:04:34 bit error? Mar 06 19:04:48 where? Mar 06 19:05:07 bitflip you think? Mar 06 19:05:16 something like that, yes. Mar 06 19:05:21 DocScrutinizer: http://pastebin.com/acUgu19S Mar 06 19:05:22 hmm Mar 06 19:05:33 say an extra 1024mA Mar 06 19:05:43 (or whatever the appropriate bit would be) Mar 06 19:07:37 AI = 162 mA, seems perfectly sane Mar 06 19:08:00 NAC dropped though, not dramatically but still Mar 06 19:09:04 aah, nm. NAC is current charge, not 100% charge - probably Mar 06 19:11:31 SpeedEvil: 2A is actually possible, if you take into account a hostmode 2.5W Mar 06 19:11:50 plus GSM at full power Mar 06 19:12:30 plus a number of other power hogs Mar 06 19:13:18 yeah. the battery will pretty much melt unless it's fresh though. Mar 06 19:13:22 standby current of 17mA seems perfectly sane Mar 06 19:14:38 DocScrutinizer: so what's wrong with my 5 hours battery on the FR? Mar 06 19:14:52 cosmos: your battery should provide some 5h of active usage at least. Suspend should easily reach 50h, if there's nothing completely odd with suspend state management Mar 06 19:15:55 * DocScrutinizer suspects cosmos' device never really enters suspend, just dims screen Mar 06 19:16:29 DocScrutinizer: I'm on QtMoko, should I modify a file for that or just let the suspend after 40s on battery mode? Mar 06 19:16:47 sorry, no idea about QtMoko Mar 06 19:19:35 radekp: does 'suspend "on" (1 min for example)' really works on battery mode? Mar 06 19:27:30 cosmos: hi, use "Power management" in settings to setup things as you need Mar 06 19:27:48 cosmos: by default it just dims screen IIRC Mar 06 19:27:57 LOL Mar 06 19:28:05 that'll explain a lot Mar 06 19:28:21 that'll[2010-03-06 20:15:55] * DocScrutinizer suspects cosmos' device never really enters suspend, just dims screen explain a lot Mar 06 19:28:30 arrg Mar 06 19:28:33 [2010-03-06 20:15:55] * DocScrutinizer suspects cosmos' device never really enters suspend, just dims screen Mar 06 19:28:50 i dont know why is it default setup - probably from days when suspend was not working :) Mar 06 19:34:36 cosmos: you can also suspend the phone with short POWER press Mar 06 19:34:59 * radekp will change the default setup to something sane... Mar 06 19:35:55 ok I'll try like that :) Mar 06 19:43:44 i have suspend to 5minutes and suspending it manually with POWER Mar 06 19:46:04 radekp: what about the v18, it is a testing version? Mar 06 19:46:35 cosmos: yes, but i am using it daily Mar 06 19:47:42 is there a sw resolution of the recamping bug in this version? Mar 06 19:50:07 cosmos: from what I see in bq27k-detail, you shouldn't have any recamping issues. 17mA suspend current looks like the modem operates at ATLEEP=2 already Mar 06 19:50:35 AT%SLEPP=2 maybe Mar 06 19:50:49 something like that :-P Mar 06 19:52:05 cosmos: you need harwdare fix and then you can enable deep sleep in /opt/qtmoko/etc/Trolltech/defaut/Modem.conf Mar 06 19:52:29 i just shoot the path from head - it can be a bit different Mar 06 19:55:39 which would increase your standby time from ~50h to ~100h (*/ 1.3) Mar 06 19:56:06 err +/-30% Mar 06 20:13:48 Trolltech.. Mar 06 20:15:02 Tech Trolls.. Mar 06 22:23:53 thre is no gps choip in the FR isn't it? only a-gps? Mar 06 22:24:02 *chip Mar 06 22:27:03 you're confused; it can work without assistance data, just that with assist you can get an initial fix quicker Mar 06 22:28:24 mjr: yes I'm confused because I havn't an unlimited internet access account Mar 06 22:28:59 mjr: how to disable or to avoid the use of a-gps? Mar 06 22:29:14 when using the gps Mar 06 22:29:16 ? Mar 06 22:29:55 it's probably not used by default anyway Mar 06 22:31:11 (and I say "probably" mostly because there's different distros that might theoretically set it up automatically, but I don't know that any do) Mar 06 22:32:04 and even then, the amounts of data would be very low Mar 07 02:31:37 whats the fix for the current issue with gta01 images where the touchscreen is set for landscape and the lcd portart Mar 07 02:31:48 i assume there is a command to resync them **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 07 02:59:57 2010
