**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Aug 03 03:00:00 2018 Aug 03 07:50:59 gpd phone would make a good competitor for gemini.. Aug 03 07:59:10 if they sort that barely-an-improvement-on-new-macbooks keyboard, i guess ;) Aug 03 08:04:50 Say "hi to the futurepast" from 2009 - https://www.slashgear.com/digicube-midphone-50-35g-handheld-pc-with-voice-video-0245614/ Aug 03 08:05:07 or "I suspect a GPDphone would end up looking like that" Aug 03 08:08:59 Actually did get launched as a "Psion 5 replacement" with an emulator on it by somebody in the UK, albeit the EKing S515 rebranded unit. Don't think it sold many. Aug 03 10:08:52 WTF, two hours of battery, 0.5-1GB ram, 1/4 space that could be used for screen is unused, 800x480 resolution Aug 03 10:09:20 ... ah, 2009. Didn't notice, the article said it's a demo so I believed it's a new thing. Aug 03 14:51:58 am about ready to reflash, X27 device, linux + sailfish only. heard elsewhere that this means sailfish won't be able to see my sim card Aug 03 14:52:38 that it requires android for that -- which is certainly bothersome. is this true, or will i be able to use gemini as phone with sailfish and no androic? Aug 03 14:52:46 androic=android Aug 03 14:54:06 dep: I've heard something similar - that Sailfish won't work properly until an Android partition sets up the default SIM. That might be out-f-date info though... Aug 03 14:54:25 +o Aug 03 14:59:36 i was hoping that this had been fixed, but haven't heard one way or the other. apparently due to (useless, best i can tell) esim feature on X27. Aug 03 15:02:02 After several flashees, my Sailfish has never really worked anyway - I might wait util the official release at the end of the year before I give it another go. (I get the Sailfish lock screen but no way to unlock it!) Aug 03 15:03:25 it would be nice to install sailfish as only OS, configure it, have it work, and let that be that. no dance of the esc-silver buttons. booting multiple OSes has worked Aug 03 15:03:50 for some years now, but it seems we're reinventing the wheel -- and it's triangular! Aug 03 15:13:59 lol Aug 03 15:22:06 Additionally, when Sailfish OS 3.0 is released, there's some question whether it will be available in the U.S. Aug 03 15:55:57 canny[m], > I get the Sailfish lock screen but no way to unlock it! Aug 03 15:56:10 have you finished the tutorial or it failed for some reason? Aug 03 15:57:10 as for eSIM configuration issue, I would like to get that fixed, but I don't have X27 personally Aug 03 17:00:03 TheKit : It would seem to be as simple and making the eSIM invisible to the OS. Though I guess that with no bios or no accessible one, turning it off isn't possible. Aug 03 17:01:13 and=as Aug 03 18:04:34 hmmm. the flashing tool is blowing up when i click the button to select a scatterfile, to wit: Aug 03 18:04:45 QObject::moveToThread: Cannot move objects with a parent Aug 03 18:04:55 TQPaintDevice: Must construct a TQApplication before a TQPaintDevice Aug 03 18:05:12 has anyone else encountered this? if so, how fix? Aug 03 23:26:15 solved the problem above -- used different computer -- but it still wouldn't flash; kept asking me to choose at least one ROM to flash Aug 03 23:26:29 without explanation or place to do it. Aug 03 23:27:21 think i'll join the crowd leaving the gadget turned off until sailfishos 3, or else try to sell it to somebody i don't like. Aug 03 23:31:26 SP FlashTool isn't the prettiest tool Aug 03 23:31:57 you should be able to use GParted in Debian to remove system, cache and userdata partitions, but not the other ones Aug 04 01:36:13 omegamoon[m]: you got mainline sorta-kinda booting, right? does it need any patches before you see anything on the UART? or does unpatched mainline set voltages to something unsafe and blow everything up or something to that effect? Aug 04 01:36:51 I think I'm going to get some sleep, just managed to solder an FTDI cable for that thing and it's like 4:30 AM... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Aug 04 02:59:59 2018
