Jan 31 03:30:54 I can't find the the app mentioned on the home page...{Preware Homebrew Documentation}. Jan 31 03:30:57 dont ask to ask, just ask Jan 31 03:31:05 Oh thanks... Jan 31 03:31:27 dweezy : follow preware installation instructions from the wiki Jan 31 03:31:38 google 'webos-internals preware wiki' to find it Jan 31 03:31:51 I did "secure erase" on my TouchPad and now it takes 2-3 minutes to boot and once it does, I see "select language" option. Jan 31 03:31:56 thanks aigo Jan 31 03:32:04 amigo` Jan 31 03:32:13 CatLike : so select a language ? Jan 31 03:32:26 I mean, isn't that too long? Jan 31 03:32:38 CatLike : first boot is slow Jan 31 03:32:49 after you get it configured it will be faster Jan 31 03:32:54 Ohhh..I thought something was wrong with my device. Jan 31 03:32:55 Thanks Jan 31 03:32:59 wich one Jan 31 03:33:03 ? Jan 31 03:34:17 Also, I am trying to doctor it. I opened .jar file. I am at "faded out NEXT button" screen. I am holding Volume up + power button to turn on TP. After which i see USB icon on my TP but the Faded NEXT button does not become CLICKABLE. Jan 31 03:35:06 also thanks, I just acquired an HP touch pad and it seems to be alright.. But what I've read so far people seem to like to root it. Jan 31 03:35:24 Also, while I see USB icon on my TP, I do not see TP being present in "my computer" Jan 31 03:36:06 dweezy : preware is nice. and easy most of the time Jan 31 03:36:34 sorry, i dont know about doctor , wait around for someone , shouldnt be long :) Jan 31 03:40:30 I think I am going to restart my comp and see Jan 31 03:40:35 brb if something goes wrong. Jan 31 03:41:21 so what happens if I turn developer mode on? Jan 31 03:49:10 http://ompldr.org/vY2pubg/wterm_2012-30-01_194752.png Jan 31 07:25:31 wterm just keeps getting better :D Jan 31 07:35:52 hewball, that is thanks to the hard work of PuffTheMagic stbuehler Brybry and several others Jan 31 07:36:07 they have been working on that thing what seems like non-stop for quite a while now Jan 31 07:36:14 :D Jan 31 07:36:23 and it is indeed pretty amazing Jan 31 07:36:36 * cryptk feels proud that about 0.01% of the code is from me Jan 31 07:36:47 and my bit of code has had 0 bugs so far ;) Jan 31 07:37:09 except for the bug it came with that i fixed ;) Jan 31 07:37:14 turned the touchpad into an awsome terminal :D Jan 31 07:37:44 hewball, i like being able to sit on my couch and compile stuff on my desktop :D Jan 31 07:38:06 PuffTheMagic, that wasn't a bug in my code, that was a bug in your code that was revealed by my code Jan 31 07:38:13 ;) Jan 31 07:38:54 no you had like a ]]] Jan 31 07:40:02 ahh, damn Jan 31 07:48:19 PuffTheMagic, I guess I should have run it though JSONlint before I committed it, lol Jan 31 07:49:01 :) **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jan 31 17:23:31 2012 Jan 31 18:45:10 so Jan 31 18:45:52 after some repartitioning and trial and error, GoogleCL is working and the gdata python apis are authenticated on my touchpad Jan 31 18:46:13 and I can run commands against my google account, including direct picasa uploads :) Jan 31 19:01:01 kevets_, spiffy Jan 31 19:03:54 kevets_: nice! Jan 31 19:03:59 now I just need a way of making launcher icons to kick off scripts and I can have a one button copy/upload/delete script for images off my sdcard Jan 31 19:04:28 sd card? Jan 31 19:04:30 I'm kinda faking it now via the exhibition mode for wterm Jan 31 19:04:47 sd card in a usb hub connected to touchpad Jan 31 19:04:58 from a digital camera Jan 31 19:05:05 ah Jan 31 19:06:00 I wanted to see if I could find a way to do photo copy and uploading without needing to get use my laptop Jan 31 19:18:46 kevets_: we defnitely need some kind of media manager application Jan 31 19:20:11 kevets_: do inserted volumes (USB / SD etc) automount in webos? Jan 31 19:20:24 I suppose they wouldn't, how would you eject them Jan 31 19:29:10 so what we really need is an automounter and a (by default headless) app for notifications and then actually popping it up and unmounting / ejecting stuff at need Jan 31 19:40:58 des, no automount Jan 31 19:41:34 but once you know the device and mount point name you can replicate it Jan 31 19:42:37 maybe steal the usb mode / charge only notification Jan 31 19:45:44 couldn't you automount with an upstart script? Jan 31 19:46:06 depending on how old the upstart implementation is Jan 31 19:47:02 pretty damn old Jan 31 19:47:10 0.3.x Jan 31 19:56:53 evening Jan 31 19:59:49 anyone want to pick up this project and make it a touchpad browser http://www.fractalbrew.com/labs/prefox/ Jan 31 20:03:28 is it yours? Jan 31 20:03:34 hey swisstomcat Jan 31 20:03:45 nope its something i found on the new Jan 31 20:04:01 net and the person that did ti released the source code Jan 31 20:04:04 hey Jan 31 20:04:10 if it isnt yours, or open source, then we cant really pick it up and start work on it without permission from the deveeloper Jan 31 20:04:18 its open source Jan 31 20:04:20 mAxius, link to the source? Jan 31 20:04:25 i never heard about that :) Jan 31 20:05:20 firefox would be MPL Jan 31 20:05:59 but any new files might not be Jan 31 20:06:14 http://www.fractalbrew.com/labs/prefox/building-prefox/ Jan 31 20:06:24 mAxius, this seems like a case of "I want this would you do this for me" Jan 31 20:06:39 https://www.fractalbrew.com/hg/ Jan 31 20:06:41 I'd love a chromium build Jan 31 20:06:45 ka6sox, indeed Jan 31 20:06:50 well i mean it looks to be a good idea Jan 31 20:07:23 I tried prefox a while back... was a huge pain to use Jan 31 20:07:42 but webos hardware and firefox mobile have moved a long way since then Jan 31 20:07:52 making it work on webOS (since its not X) could be challenging, and without and understanding of how to hook it into Luna, might be really tough. Jan 31 20:08:07 first serious browser upgrade will be great for webos Jan 31 20:08:20 ka6sox, I think prefox is just a pdk app Jan 31 20:08:42 I have chromium working on Xapps but never released it Jan 31 20:12:11 you should release that Jan 31 20:26:58 hmm. my gf activated my pre- last night. it was working fine. she got a notice for a 1.4.5 upgrade and told it yes. our ringtone and wifi went dead. Jan 31 20:27:05 i doctored it and now all audio is dead. help Jan 31 20:27:34 O.o Jan 31 20:28:58 :/ Jan 31 20:31:22 doh Jan 31 20:31:36 did you check the volume ? Jan 31 20:31:49 can you ssh to it and check dmesg / volume log ? Jan 31 20:31:58 i mean audio log, if there is such a thing Jan 31 20:32:19 try plugging headphones in, and removing them, to see if that will jog it back to audio Jan 31 20:32:31 try seeing if headphones work and its just speaker problem Jan 31 20:32:47 oh wifi is dead too, jeez Jan 31 20:32:50 the casing is slightly loose on the upper left hand corner of the phone, if i hold it down, i seem to get full audio Jan 31 20:32:56 no wifi started working again when we doctored it Jan 31 20:33:10 oh Jan 31 20:33:24 EricBlade, sounds like a loose screw Jan 31 20:33:26 well if you hold down the case, sounds like hardware problem and you need to return to get it fixed Jan 31 20:33:45 ok , hardware problem. anyone know about taking these apart ? heh Jan 31 20:34:00 * PatrickC has done it many times :) Jan 31 20:34:02 * Compn bets there is video instructions online Jan 31 20:34:22 if u have a T5 (i think its a T5, might be a T6) you can tighten up the screw without taking it apart Jan 31 20:34:37 is that torx or hex ? Jan 31 20:34:41 torx Jan 31 20:34:45 hmm. that's only noticeable when the slider is closer Jan 31 20:34:49 *d Jan 31 20:35:14 i use a T5 when taking apart my phones (just checked) Jan 31 20:35:39 EricBlade, you said a pre-, right? Jan 31 20:35:44 ya Jan 31 20:35:54 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Sprint_Pre_2 Jan 31 20:36:01 those steps will help u take it apart Jan 31 20:36:33 (dont mind that its a guide to making a sprint pre2, it still helps you take the phone apart) :) Jan 31 20:37:32 ping me if u get stuck/need help Jan 31 20:37:47 i just built a frankenpre+ on sunday, and i have built multiple sprint pre2's Jan 31 20:40:47 lol, ok, it appears that it may have been the System Tests that broke it Jan 31 20:41:10 as soon as i go to system tests, all audio stops, no matter what i'm doing with that loose part of the case, and rebooting it fixes Jan 31 20:41:40 ah Jan 31 20:41:53 hey, does anyone know if the pre2 doctor flashes anything hardware specific? Jan 31 20:44:02 next silly question of the day.. how the hell does the Pre- identify my call as coming from Google Voice???? Jan 31 20:44:29 caller id ? Jan 31 20:45:20 EricBlade, what do you mean? Jan 31 20:45:54 it identifies my name, number, etc, then adds "GRAND CENTRAL" to it, which does not show on my regular caller id i don't think Jan 31 20:46:08 Compn, Google Voice doesnt have a regular caller ID iirc Jan 31 20:46:32 i would check on that for sure, but i don't know my home number lol Jan 31 20:46:41 haha Jan 31 20:47:04 * Compn wonders if theres advanced caller id Jan 31 20:48:40 EricBlade, call your cell phone from the house phone and the phone number should show up ;) Jan 31 20:49:01 its calling from inside the house! Jan 31 20:49:06 horror movie quote... Jan 31 20:49:12 lol Jan 31 20:52:13 nope, it identifies to regular caller ID as "Petaluma, CA" Jan 31 20:55:00 eery. apparently because my number is in the Google Contacts, and the Google Contacts is synced to the phone, the phone therefore automatically knows that it's a Google Voice number Jan 31 20:55:11 so it says that instead of "HOME" or whatever Jan 31 20:55:20 petaluma? why do you have a number there? I thought you were in michigan Jan 31 20:55:42 because i was able to spell my name with a Petaluma number Jan 31 20:56:05 ... oh. Jan 31 20:56:25 i have 707-99-Blade and 751-99-webOS Feb 01 00:05:16 Hmm, the verizon webos 2.2.4 meta-doctor script doesn't come with 3G Feb 01 00:05:18 :\ Feb 01 00:05:24 all I have is eV Feb 01 00:06:02 ev IS 3g for vzw/sprint Feb 01 00:13:56 is it? Feb 01 00:14:04 The little icon changed Feb 01 00:14:05 Okay :) Feb 01 00:14:28 * rrix hopes 2.2.x treats his pre2 a little better than 2.1 has so far. Feb 01 00:14:42 I'm pretty sure I just need new hardware though Feb 01 02:01:01 my pre2 didn't like 2.2.4 very much **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Feb 01 02:59:57 2012
