**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Feb 23 02:59:56 2011 Feb 23 03:00:07 i have a pre 2 what do you want to know? Feb 23 03:00:14 had it since november... Feb 23 03:01:17 oil: sweet :) Feb 23 03:02:43 SuperDan311: AjaxRequest(...) Feb 23 03:03:11 Hmmm... Feb 23 03:03:36 webview widget Feb 23 03:03:54 or webview widget Feb 23 03:04:05 if you just want to view the web site... Feb 23 03:04:10 i like it... but dont get it.... Feb 23 03:04:17 noob alert... Feb 23 03:04:29 http://www.prototypejs.org/api/ajax/request Feb 23 03:04:46 so, are you wanting help building an app, or are you wanting someone to build it for you? Feb 23 03:07:32 i could go either way... i want to learn but it is a massive time commitment considering my current level of knowledge... i mean this stuff is all "greek" to me... I am checking out the link you just sent me, and well it helps but i gotta learn the preReqs first... Sorry guys... Feb 23 03:10:16 hypothetically how much would one charge per hour/app? obviously it would be different for each person i imagine... but what i am would like to create is nothing overly elaborate... i just want it to be clean etc... I can do all the visuals and content... is it the coding where i get lost Feb 23 03:20:20 alrighty then... Feb 23 03:20:54 sorry, off doing something else. Feb 23 03:21:07 sugardave: ping Feb 23 03:21:56 SuperDan311: do you have a link to the website you're wanting to "appify"? Feb 23 03:23:15 not so much... but you can check out a PDF of the newsletter http://web.me.com/idoitkid/palmstarz/PalmStarz/webOS_Newsletter_files/HP%20webOS%20Jan.%202011%20Newsletter.pdf Feb 23 03:24:06 palmstarz.com was a very basic website i put together using iweb... just to get something up there... but i never really developed the site any further... Feb 23 03:28:00 basically the most of the newsletter info is already available via precentral.net or webosroundup... and the webosroundup app is a good example of what i would like to achieve... but more for sales reps/field reps... Feb 23 03:29:56 i have a pretty clear vision on what i would like to achieve... but getting that out of my head and into code is where i fail Feb 23 03:31:58 so where would the app get the info? Feb 23 03:32:48 in theory i would update it on a website or whatever and have the app pull it from there... Feb 23 03:33:43 just experimenting in ares... i made a 3 buttons that could be links to this content... but it is pretty crappy... Feb 23 03:34:39 but if they were basically monthly blog like posting a user could go back in time to see past updates/tips and tricks/news/ etc... Feb 23 03:35:49 i mean how does the weboscentral app work or for that matter the engadget app work? all they do is reformat the standard web based content for the webOS app/screen Feb 23 03:36:56 i will be checking out some lynda.com tutorials to help educate myself... but man it is gonna be a long journey it feels... Feb 23 03:54:10 yo! Feb 23 04:19:28 SineOt: hey i'm going to try to put together a slydial chain-dialler while we await their response, if you don't object Feb 23 04:20:14 objections: none Feb 23 04:21:53 no 2.1 update for US pre2s?

Feb 23 04:48:14 nothing, as it is illegal Feb 23 04:48:16 (or is there a better webos dev channel?) Feb 23 04:48:24 this is the best :) Feb 23 04:48:32 Xuzz: I think there's a post on webos101.com on how to do that Feb 23 04:48:56 right, but if you had SOMETHING in mind, then install Ubuntu on it and use the iPhoneDevOnLinux tools. your XP machine surely wouldn't run OSX, so you must have something else laying around right Feb 23 04:49:20 i mean heck, if you're willing to pay for shipping i've got a Penium IV here that supports 2GB of memory that i'll give ya Feb 23 04:49:58 I have a computer downstairs running Windows 7 x64 with 4GB RAM and 2TB HAD :) Feb 23 04:50:02 SineOt: I'll look, thanks. Feb 23 04:50:05 *HDD* Feb 23 04:50:21 well, then put ubuntu in a VM Feb 23 04:50:23 then why not put Ubuntu on that Feb 23 04:50:28 agreed Feb 23 04:50:30 or install it (preferably) Feb 23 04:50:42 most everything can be settled with... "because he's PatrickC_Pre" :p Feb 23 04:50:48 lol Feb 23 04:50:48 my dad doesn't want Ubuntu on it :'( Feb 23 04:50:51 i'll tell ya, on developing for mobile you want to get as far away from Windows as possible Feb 23 04:51:00 sineot has copyrighted that saying Feb 23 04:51:07 PatrickC_Pre: VirtualBox: you already have it installed with the webOS SDK Feb 23 04:51:09 I know.. I know :( Feb 23 04:51:28 exactly xuzz Feb 23 04:51:28 well, he might let me once I'm caught up in school..... Feb 23 04:51:59 focus on school buddy, building shoutcast apps can wait, infact i'm pretty sure theres all ready options for people that want to put in custom urls Feb 23 04:52:38 I'm going to get caught up on school, then maybe put ubuntu in a VBox Feb 23 04:53:01 *nix is your friend Feb 23 04:54:05 * PatrickC_Pre is trying to figure out how to get a button to open a webpage using JS Feb 23 04:55:23 in mojo? Feb 23 04:55:58 yes Feb 23 04:56:18 but I'm actually looking for myself :) and not begging someone to code it for me lol Feb 23 04:58:38 lol Feb 23 04:59:04 I'm willing to bet that soon Javascript will replace Visual Basic as the beginners programming language in most colleges Feb 23 04:59:08 woot! you go PatrickC_Pre !!! Feb 23 05:00:01 I don't know Visual Basic :p Feb 23 05:00:17 and... lol haeffb_pre Feb 23 05:00:38 when i was in school they taught vb6 and then vb.net for beginner classes Feb 23 05:00:51 they were discussing getting rid of it when i left Feb 23 05:01:04 putting ubuntu in vbox = good move Feb 23 05:02:38 what more can Ubuntu do then windows to help me with webOS development? Feb 23 05:04:10 metadoc Feb 23 05:04:48 I don't really have a use for metadoc, unless I can 2.1ify my Pixi Feb 23 05:05:04 everyone has a use for metadoc! I've been using it for months.. :) Feb 23 05:05:35 what else are they good for? Feb 23 05:05:56 yeah, after using Metadoc I'm seeing just how useful it is Feb 23 05:06:28 what else can it do? lol Feb 23 05:06:58 I thought it was only for making doctors? why would I need to do that when I have a perfectly good doctor from HP? Feb 23 05:07:03 yea ... comment all the stuff in your makefile that you want :) Feb 23 05:07:24 s/comment/uncomment Feb 23 05:07:33 because you can make a doctor that has preware already installed, testing feeds already enabled, etc Feb 23 05:07:43 yep Feb 23 05:07:44 PatrickC_Pre: I've been using it to make a BETTER doctor.. preware installed (w/ testing), dev mode at get-go Feb 23 05:07:45 damn Feb 23 05:07:57 awesome! Feb 23 05:08:04 I might have to start using metadoc.... Feb 23 05:08:08 (and disable uploadd) as well as increased /var, custom bootie theme, etc Feb 23 05:08:29 most of these things can be done AFTER doctor, but damn, you're going to spend a whole lot more effort! Feb 23 05:08:31 I gotta tell ya, i'm an iOS user, but i've been incredibly tempted to get a Pre3 and a TouchPad so I can mess with the easily hackable webos Feb 23 05:09:24 stacks > ios Feb 23 05:09:39 naa. stacks is too good for apple Feb 23 05:09:46 whenever i have an iphone in my hand, i try to back-gesture Feb 23 05:09:53 oil: soon, you will Feb 23 05:10:05 and then realize i have to reach up to the top of the screen to hit the back button Feb 23 05:10:06 iOS has a lot of really well thought out things Feb 23 05:10:07 anybody around here live near Palm HQ? Feb 23 05:10:15 I try to back-gesture on BBerry, Android, and iOS Feb 23 05:10:29 yeah, the gesture stuff is coming you can do some of it now with 4.3 beta Feb 23 05:10:34 ajay: do I know you? Feb 23 05:10:35 :p Feb 23 05:10:40 vigilant: like their "multitasking" xD Feb 23 05:10:42 the really impressive stuff is full hand gestures on ipad with 4.3 Feb 23 05:10:51 Unrelated question: how do you stop all tap events in a Scene? Feb 23 05:11:10 like, when this is happening, I want to silently ignore *all* events. Feb 23 05:11:11 Xuzz: I doubt it! but i take that as a yes? Feb 23 05:11:19 ajay: probably not :p Feb 23 05:11:40 Xuzz: I mean, I take it you live near PalmHQ? Feb 23 05:11:46 no Feb 23 05:11:51 well, depending what "close" means Feb 23 05:11:53 I'm in SF. Feb 23 05:11:57 oil: multitasking isn't perfect, but it's continuously evolving, and does a really good job of maintaining battery life. I can get a full day of battery life out of my phone, including game time, and using the mobile hotspot, and sever multi-hour calls Feb 23 05:12:14 Xuzz: hmm.. maybe that's close.. if there were a Silicon Valley webOS meetup, would you come? Feb 23 05:12:26 ajay: depending, as I don't even own a webOS device. Feb 23 05:12:30 oh, haha Feb 23 05:12:45 I'm porting a lame iPhone app I made a while ago, though. Feb 23 05:12:47 to learn Feb 23 05:12:51 nice!

Feb 23 07:03:19 do a sound track and I'll overlay it Feb 23 07:03:25 XMLHttpRequest is giving me a status of zero (0) when doing an external request. Google says this seems to be related to cross-domain blocking, but that's not enabled in Mojo apps? Feb 23 07:04:05 rwhitby, I'll see if i can come up with something less than half-ass :) Feb 23 07:05:35 (Or is it required to use Ajax.Request from Prototype?) Feb 23 09:03:37 whats goin on! Feb 23 09:03:46 to little Feb 23 09:51:06 hey guys. does anyone know how i'd go about compiling obj-c code with the pdk? Feb 23 09:51:27 why would anyone do that? Feb 23 09:51:40 :( Feb 23 09:51:56 well i have an iphone game i want to port over Feb 23 09:52:04 entirely written in obj-c Feb 23 09:52:12 yikes Feb 23 09:52:20 yeah, i kind of like it Feb 23 09:52:28 is it a fart app? Feb 23 09:52:29 I have no idea if there's an objc compiler frontend Feb 23 09:52:31 although i realise a lot of people don't Feb 23 09:52:57 usually people try C or C++ and only the bare neccessities in objC because it's so... welll Feb 23 09:53:45 so i figure my best bet is to compile arm-none-linux-gnueabi from source and enable support? Feb 23 09:54:00 rizer: is it a fart app? Feb 23 09:54:39 hopefully. Feb 23 09:54:39 hotdp: yeah, i figured webos is really lacking in fart apps ;) Feb 23 09:55:00 we have some but we need more!

Feb 23 16:42:14 hotdp, me ? Feb 23 16:43:12 yes Feb 23 16:45:15 hotdp, unfortunatly not Feb 23 16:46:08 Oki Feb 23 16:46:21 I dont know when it will be released Feb 23 16:46:25 anyone heard anything about the developer devices? Feb 23 16:46:47 But it might be released there before Feb 23 16:46:59 HattCzech_work: no, send my sheet saturday to them. and checking whole day my inbox. Feb 23 16:47:24 hrm soon work ends. *yawn* Feb 23 16:55:21 hey guys. can anyone help me out trying to compile obj-c with the pdk? Feb 23 17:05:05 rizer your back :) Feb 23 17:05:22 ah indeed Feb 23 17:05:25 trying again Feb 23 17:05:51 leiru_web: yeah, i sent an e-mail last week sometime... no reponse yet Feb 23 17:06:31 HattCzech_work: are you talking pre 2? Feb 23 17:06:53 yeah Feb 23 17:07:03 yeah, i applied for that Feb 23 17:07:12 got an email saying they'd dispatch this week Feb 23 17:07:13 rizer: did you get a response? Feb 23 17:07:22 :) Feb 23 17:07:24 oh cool, when did you send them an e-mail? Feb 23 17:08:06 hi Feb 23 17:08:34 feb18th Feb 23 17:08:42 heard back on 21st Feb 23 17:08:56 hmmm Feb 23 17:09:24 what e-mail address did you send it to? Feb 23 17:09:40 devmarketing@palm.com Feb 23 17:09:46 heard back from Adam Danielski Feb 23 17:10:15 also been trying to apply for early access, but that seems to be taking a lot longer! Feb 23 17:10:17 Is it possible to try to reconnect to a palm profile, without wiping the device? Feb 23 17:10:23 like switch profile? Feb 23 17:10:32 interesting Feb 23 17:10:40 i sent an e-mail on the 15th Feb 23 17:10:41 no response yet Feb 23 17:11:39 maybe they dont use fifo Feb 23 17:12:34 filo? :/ Feb 23 17:13:01 You dont know? Feb 23 17:13:16 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFO Feb 23 17:15:18 i know what fifo is, i was wondering if they were using the filo method Feb 23 17:15:43 oh, they use lifo, not filo Feb 23 17:15:46 same thing Feb 23 17:16:15 i think it might be random :D Feb 23 17:16:34 yeah, sounds pretty random! Feb 23 17:17:01 indeed Feb 23 17:17:06 how long does early access usually take to process? i got one email, responded, but i don't see anything changing in the forums Feb 23 17:17:19 assuming i'm looking in the right place Feb 23 17:18:27 rizer: usually only a couple of days, but that was a while back, so i don't know how long it takes now Feb 23 17:18:42 chuqui: how backed up are things over there? Feb 23 17:19:12 as a webos n00b, i'm finding it hard to keep track of where all the os versions are at Feb 23 17:19:25 early access takes longer Feb 23 17:19:33 so the standard sdk is like version 1.4 ish Feb 23 17:19:33 there are many who want now with enoy Feb 23 17:19:40 .1.4.5 Feb 23 17:19:44 yeah Feb 23 17:19:58 but 2.0 is being rolled out already? Feb 23 17:20:03 and is on the pre 2?? Feb 23 17:20:07 HattCzech_work: we're getting there... I cleared out a few hundred early access requests from the backlog over the weekend. Feb 23 17:20:13 Pre 2 Runs 2.0.1 Feb 23 17:20:26 Pre plus o2 runs 2.1 Feb 23 17:20:36 I can#t use my profile in 2.1 Feb 23 17:20:44 and so the veer is…? Feb 23 17:20:45 chuqui: weekends = no work Feb 23 17:21:06 veer is not released yet Feb 23 17:21:08 yeah Feb 23 17:21:17 but that will ship with 2.1 or 2.2? Feb 23 17:21:30 google? Feb 23 17:21:37 good shout Feb 23 17:22:46 wiki says 2.2 Feb 23 17:23:01 same as pre3 Feb 23 17:23:02 oki Feb 23 17:23:09 sounds correct Feb 23 17:23:12 an touchpad 3.0 Feb 23 17:23:12 chuqui: hey! I'm curious, what's the feeling at HP regarding people modifying the new 2.1.0 doctor to run on their own "legacy" devices? Obviously HP / Palm can't support it, but I'm always curious what it's like for you guys to see the customizations going on in the community.. Feb 23 17:23:24 yeah Feb 23 17:23:39 which will then come back to the other devices Feb 23 17:23:48 pre3 and veer at least Feb 23 17:23:52 thanks for the info, chuqui Feb 23 17:24:04 so i take it enyo is 3.0 only? Feb 23 17:24:11 destinal: I'd put it at "no official opinion" because it's not something we can support, and you're really on your own. Feb 23 17:24:19 rizer: no Feb 23 17:24:21 we love to see the enthusiasm out there, though. It's awesome Feb 23 17:24:35 because it's just standard web tech? Feb 23 17:24:54 makes sense i guess Feb 23 17:25:26 so will 3.0 support mojo apps? at least on the pre3 and veer? Feb 23 17:25:38 yes Feb 23 17:25:50 correct Feb 23 17:25:57 but not the touchpad? Feb 23 17:26:04 also Feb 23 17:26:18 have you not seen the video from 9th? Feb 23 17:26:36 yeah… Feb 23 17:26:43 mojo will continue to be supported for the forseeable future, but not enhanced. It's deprecated but not gone. Feb 23 17:26:54 chuqui: Palm has always had an awesome (and sensible) attitude about stuff like this, like, yeah you're on your own but it's cool what people can do rather than "those evil hackers, they're doing something they shouldn't be" ;) Part of what makes me glad to be a part of this community and not hacking on operating systems produced by large fruit companies. Feb 23 17:27:56 cool Feb 23 17:28:15 i guess mojo apps on the touchpad make no sense though Feb 23 17:29:05 Is it just me, or is the new bar at the top of the screen in webOS looking more and more like androids Feb 23 17:29:10 on the touch pad Feb 23 17:30:12 Hey do we get a front facing camera on the Pre3? Feb 23 17:30:18 is this new framework already on the webos 2.x releases ? Feb 23 17:30:26 no Feb 23 17:30:32 I guess, no Feb 23 17:30:44 it was announced for webos 3 Feb 23 17:30:52 and maybe later coming to webos 2 Feb 23 17:30:54 CTLAdvance: yeah, they did a facetime-like video chat at the event this month between a pre3 and a touchpad, wasn't it? Feb 23 17:31:21 it has a front facing camera Feb 23 17:31:27 OK I knew the touchpad did, for some reason I thought it was excluded from the phone Feb 23 17:31:28 and mentioned skype integration coming Feb 23 17:31:32 glad to know it does Feb 23 17:32:05 chuqui: do you know anythng about the "can't access profile in 2.1" issue? Feb 23 17:32:06 does it have a rear facing camera? always seems like a gimmicky feature for tablets to me Feb 23 17:32:33 rizer: skype on the touchpad was mentioned also, which if it's a wifi-only touchpad would be interesting Feb 23 17:32:44 "always" == the last few months when such devices have existed! Feb 23 17:32:47 Rearfacing is important for tabs, not a gimmick Feb 23 17:33:07 The tabs are so small anyways, even at 10" it just makes sense Feb 23 17:33:15 otherwise I have to find my phone Feb 23 17:33:21 etc etc Feb 23 17:33:21 tabs? Feb 23 17:33:22 CTLAdvance: meh, it's a little awkward using a huge device to take pictures though Feb 23 17:33:30 Not really Feb 23 17:33:37 doesn't look like it has one anyway Feb 23 17:33:42 really? Feb 23 17:33:46 not clunky? Feb 23 17:33:48 These tabs arent that big, slightly bigger than a dsl Feb 23 17:33:50 dslr Feb 23 17:34:06 have more to hold on to Feb 23 17:34:06 MetaView: not really. there was a glitch with the doctors we shipped in europe where for the first few hours they weren't recognized as production releases by the cloud, but that was resolved. Feb 23 17:34:18 soon time for leaving work and go home. Feb 23 17:34:23 bbl. Feb 23 17:34:31 my new profile seems to work Feb 23 17:34:46 expect i can't buy apps, but I didn't enter credit card infos Feb 23 17:34:50 oh java, how i like thee Feb 23 17:35:57 Galax tab 10.1 has an 8 megapixel camera on board and a nice flash Feb 23 17:38:14 CTLAdvance: i don't think that having an android device out there with a particular feature means that it's a good idea Feb 23 17:38:43 MetaView: you're one of the lucky people who can use the new doctor unmodified, right? Feb 23 17:38:51 motorala atrix being a great example Feb 23 17:46:16 I disagree, its not about a single device Feb 23 17:46:29 every android device is coming with cameras, ipad is supposed to have one Feb 23 17:50:23 ipad will only have a front facing camera i reckon Feb 23 17:53:10 well see 3/2 Feb 23 17:53:23 indeed Feb 23 17:54:01 and i guess differing opinions is exactly why we see differing devices – it's all preference Feb 23 17:54:24 am i right in thinking hp are doing another event in march too? Feb 23 17:54:31 They are Feb 23 17:56:15 any wild speculations as to what they're announcing? Feb 23 17:56:37 regardless of preference, market wise, the camera is important, just one less feature we dont have compared to many other devices... to be honest, these tablets are slightly bigger than many dslrs, and smaller than most pro dslr's so saying its akward really isnt an excuse Feb 23 17:57:05 still disagree completely ;) Feb 23 17:57:28 However the Kno tablet... thats one monster Feb 23 17:57:32 yuk Feb 23 18:01:16 wow, i'd not seen that Feb 23 18:01:21 pretty shocking Feb 23 18:09:53 :/ Feb 23 18:12:17 ? Feb 23 18:16:04 howdy! Feb 23 18:16:47 * oilsworkn assumes ajay_ is from the south? Feb 23 18:27:24 * sugardave_work waits for feckless cow-orker to arrive. Feb 23 18:30:42 destinal: I created a MetaDoctor, as I have a Pre- Feb 23 18:35:49 MetaView: ah, you have to just bypass model check then Feb 23 18:36:42 * destinal hopes now that there is 2.x for all devices except pixi, we can finally get a public webos2 SDK Feb 23 18:37:14 I refreshed my Pre today...no 2.x :( Feb 23 18:37:24 and I don't want to eliminate my current profile :( Feb 23 18:37:41 sugardave_work: elim? is that nec? Feb 23 18:37:51 I don't know, are there new working instructions? Feb 23 18:38:02 last I heard was "don't do this with your 1.4.5 profile" Feb 23 18:38:46 sugar: Feb 23 18:44:49 is there a python package available in preware? Feb 23 18:50:28 ipkg-optware has python available Feb 23 18:52:41 ok thanks Feb 23 19:13:06 reee Feb 23 19:25:20 So, what exactly are the risks of trying 2.x on my VZW Pre+? Feb 23 19:28:22 KGF2009: not much, just make sure you create a new testing profile and do not use your production one Feb 23 19:28:59 the zippy animations in webos 2 are a bit jarring... not fond of them Feb 23 19:29:07 I like the animations in 1.4 more Feb 23 19:33:48 maik: And if things go wrong, is it easy to return to 1.4.5? Feb 23 19:33:59 yes Feb 23 19:34:10 Also, is it possible to do this without USB? Feb 23 19:35:00 is it worth switching to 2.x? I just got a palm pre plus.. not sure what benefits are of upgrading Feb 23 19:39:15 faster Feb 23 19:39:28 like faster than 1.4.5 overclocked fast from what I've seen Feb 23 19:39:39 Interesting. Feb 23 19:39:50 but don't take my word for it, I still haven't tried it in person or anything Feb 23 19:40:28 but no Angry Birds, because I'm cheap and not paying again :( Feb 23 19:40:35 But is it possible to switch with no USB? Feb 23 19:40:56 My friend's got my USB cable. Feb 23 19:42:34 sugardave_work: don't worry, you can get the free version :) Feb 23 19:43:17 sugardave_work: the way everyone is settin up their 2.1.0 devices is masq'ing as 1.4.5, so i don't think your ability to revert to 1.4.5 would be affected Feb 23 19:43:49 sugardave_work: do it!!!

Feb 23 22:42:08 it's such a splitty day Feb 23 22:42:12 Hypothetically, how hard would it be to put AndroidOS on a WebOS device? Feb 23 22:42:14 why would you want to? Feb 23 22:42:16 when a device gets signed out of a profile, it doesn't really wipe things from the USB does it?? Feb 23 22:42:16 i think so Feb 23 22:42:16 what's up? Feb 23 22:42:16 did you do a full erase? Feb 23 22:42:16 or sign into the profile on a different device? Feb 23 22:42:16 oil: flexability Feb 23 22:42:16 the second Feb 23 22:42:17 then no Feb 23 22:42:17 I don't believe so Feb 23 22:43:03 scoinva: there are plenty of devices with better hardware that run android.. Feb 23 22:44:01 hay tibfib Feb 23 22:44:06 these are not the droids you're looking for Feb 23 22:44:11 PatrickC_Pixi: howdy! Feb 23 22:44:21 Tibfib: I want consumers to buy HP. Feb 23 22:44:22 hows it going? Feb 23 22:44:37 I want tibfib to but HP Feb 23 22:45:05 scoinva: haha.. Feb 23 22:46:08 halfhalo: ping! Feb 23 22:46:20 no se ingles! Feb 23 22:46:35 ahhh. si sinor Feb 23 22:52:03 alright chaps Feb 23 22:52:16 alright for me too i reckon.. Feb 23 22:56:48 got my verizon touchstone bundle today. pretty sweet... Feb 23 22:57:12 haeffb_pre: nice! got a couple of those a while back Feb 23 22:59:45 with the car charger & pouch? Feb 23 23:01:09 hi Adora! when is the Sprint Pre 3 announcement? Feb 23 23:01:12 didn't get one with a puch Feb 23 23:01:15 pouch* Feb 23 23:02:10 hm, not seeing /usr in 'mount'.. Feb 23 23:02:23 this bundle has touchstone, car charger & leather Pre pouch for $15 Feb 23 23:02:32 lol nice Feb 23 23:02:35 no wall charger, though Feb 23 23:02:43 I think I paid 10 or 20 for touchstone and car charger Feb 23 23:03:06 is rw, and usr seems to be under it, but is ro Feb 23 23:03:21 haeffb_pre: just note that that's touchstone dock-only (if from Vz) Feb 23 23:03:52 right, doesn't include the wall plug or usb cable Feb 23 23:04:36 yeah, definitely under /usr, but not writeable.. hrmm.. Feb 23 23:04:42 but I got those on Amazon for a few $ Feb 23 23:07:22 hrm i just had an idea, but it wouldnt be possible by a patch =/ Feb 23 23:08:41 for notifications, a slide up on the notification gives a larger (more context) preview (like email/txt) Feb 23 23:09:17 dawm_: couldn't you do that anyways? dashboard stuff is just a plain ol' stage Feb 23 23:09:29 don't know if the size is limited by the device though Feb 23 23:09:39 a patch I've been thinking would be awesome: a way to specify dashboard height on creation. Feb 23 23:09:55 you'd have to send more info for the notification, and hack the email/txt app to send that extra info Feb 23 23:14:54 snot: make sure that's the newly built doctor, not the orig Feb 23 23:14:57 oops, wrong chan Feb 23 23:19:57 Shoehorning Skype Mobile client onto "Unlocked" pre2. Possible? Feb 23 23:20:48 Probably, but kind of moot. It's not VoIP skype, it's a standard mobile call that gets booted onto the Skype network somewhere along the line for Verizon customers. Feb 23 23:21:12 SineOt: That sucks. Feb 23 23:21:23 SineOt: I was wondering why its sounded so crappy. Feb 23 23:21:29 yeah, it does... But it shows some promise Feb 23 23:21:39 because it integrates your Skype account with the stock Dialer app Feb 23 23:21:55 no idea if that can be used to integrate third party apps into the stock Dialer as well via a private API or what Feb 23 23:21:55 SineOt: Incidentally, that's kind of what I wanted to use it for--wanted to slingshot calls via SKYPE to my media server (asterisk) Feb 23 23:22:33 SineOt: Seems kind of promising--drooling over the "Add account" button, hoping for a standards-based SIP client to "SNAP IN" Feb 23 23:22:50 yup Feb 23 23:22:59 that's basically what I was thinking it might be able to get used for Feb 23 23:24:27 SineOt: Nokia had a native SIP client on their WiFi 'smarter' symbian devices. Great idea. When at the office and at home my desk phone is registering to the Asterisk server. No reason my PRE2 should not be over WiFi. Are you a VoIP guy? Know of any good SIP clients? Feb 23 23:24:35 (for Preware etc) Feb 23 23:24:47 there's a webos SIP client in the works, that's all I really know Feb 23 23:25:51 Is it a preware/homebrew app, or is it supposed to be in the app catalog? Feb 23 23:26:20 early alpha testing Feb 23 23:26:27 it'll probably be preware/homebrew when it releases, it's in very early alpha right now Feb 23 23:26:33 http://forums.precentral.net/webos-internals/274615-linphone-alpha-testing.html Feb 23 23:26:53 rwhitby: SineOT: I'll be beta tester. I'm a VoIP weenie. Feb 23 23:27:00 rwhitby: has anyone poked the Verizon Pre2 doctor to look at how Skype integrates with the stock dialer? Feb 23 23:28:06 SineOt: i'm casually investigating.. Feb 23 23:29:43 SineOt: rwhitby: Verizon has done something interesting there. Skype for Asterisk can't be used with 'regular' accounts--according to Skype this is for legal reasons. Essentially the Verizon app appears to be doing what Skype says they couldn't do. Feb 23 23:29:53 Thanks for the Linphone link! Feb 23 23:30:41 kfife: Skype Mobile on the Verizon Pre 2 is not a VoIP app. Feb 23 23:30:51 kfife: I think what they're doing is that it's a skype in call basically Feb 23 23:31:03 POTS in, then hits VoIP and gets shunted to Skype Feb 23 23:31:18 not some crazy Skype for Asterisk complex beast Feb 23 23:33:34 so... 2.1 on Pre- or comms swap to Pre 2 ? Feb 23 23:33:36 whitby: SineOt: You're precisely right, but my observation is that Skypes legal department says "No media gateways to the PSTN for personal accounts--business console accounts only for legal-privacy reasons". However my thought is that's essentially what verizon's doing--briding a skype call between PSTN and VoIP transport. THat's also what Skype for Asterisk does. Feb 23 23:34:15 that's what -skype- itself does with Skype In and Skype Out :p Feb 23 23:34:34 If anyone will get the clear to do that though I have a feeling that it'd be Verizon Feb 23 23:35:46 SineOt: LOL. True. It occurs to me that SKYPE themselves may be doing the media gateway themselves, not a third party like Verizon--thus a workaround. Feb 24 00:01:51 Hey guys, question: have any of you started by building a native webOS app then converting it to work with PhoneGap on other platforms? Feb 24 00:07:36 This is my main scene: http://pastebin.com/NRtVUCVv If I drag the scene an inch upwards and then release my finger off the screen, it doesn't take it's original position but stays a little bit a the top. What approach should I use to figure out what causes this? Feb 24 00:14:32 oh, found it with some luck I guess :D Feb 24 00:37:39 hey can anyone test a skype call with me real quick? Feb 24 00:40:44 does webos have group chat in skype Feb 24 00:40:47 webos 2 Feb 24 00:49:20 ajay_: do you need someone with a specific client? Feb 24 00:50:34 Spanska: any skyper Feb 24 00:50:59 ajay_: voice only? Feb 24 00:53:20 Spanska: whatever pleases you in testing skype on a VzPre+, try video, why not! i doubt it'd work tho.. Feb 24 00:55:42 thanks spanska! It's confirmed -- skype works on the Vz Pre+! Feb 24 00:56:11 Is that some hack or something out of the box? Feb 24 00:56:51 Spanska: did you hide your name? no worries if you did, i was just wondering Feb 24 00:57:42 ajay_: good question, I used my iPod Touch and I don't know, let me look Feb 24 00:58:07 ajay_: I don't have any, I can put one and try again if you need it Feb 24 00:58:21 Spanska: you got music instead of a "ring ring?" wow, i guess it really does integrate well with Vz, it played back my ringback tune! haha.. Feb 24 00:58:36 hehe it sounded like classic music Feb 24 00:59:11 Spanska: you don't have any of? (whadd'd I say? i forget) if you want to try IM'ing me too that'd be neat Feb 24 01:02:18 hrm, after I sent it I got "ajay has left" Feb 24 01:02:43 Spanska: hmm.. interesting.. does skype support offline msgs? Feb 24 01:03:08 no idea Feb 24 01:03:18 I wasn't seeing you online when I placed the call Feb 24 01:03:45 Spanska: interesting.. huh. Feb 24 01:04:05 how long has the actual meta-sprint-pre-2.1.0 script taken for most people? Feb 24 01:04:12 I just sent another chat message Feb 24 01:04:52 Spanska: no worries, we'll just take it to mean messaging is broken.. wonder why.. Feb 24 01:05:03 oh skyped died, hmm.. Feb 24 01:05:28 skype no worko? Feb 24 01:05:46 torchie: i don't seem to receive incoming skype IMs, but calls seem fine Feb 24 01:05:50 :( Feb 24 01:06:03 IMs is my main feature Feb 24 01:06:08 group ims mainly Feb 24 01:15:19 Spanska: I think it didn't show you my online status because of my privacy settings Feb 24 01:16:12 torchie: scratch that, skype IM looks like it's working! Feb 24 01:17:05 have you received my messages? Feb 24 01:17:39 Spanska: no, i think my privacy settings don't allow me to receive IMs from strangers Feb 24 01:17:48 ok Feb 24 01:18:05 if it works, that's what's important;) Feb 24 01:20:43 is there any way to see how much RAM my app uses? Feb 24 01:23:58 oh JsTop Feb 24 01:27:22 so Backup says my last backup was on dec 10 even though backups are automatic Feb 24 01:27:34 does that mean my palm profile is dicked up Feb 24 01:28:03 and that I should be very afraid to press the backup button Feb 24 01:47:42 torchie, mine did that all the time, I'd tell it to run manually and it'd do it and work normally for a while again Feb 24 01:49:39 aye, all that skype'in makes a person hungry! Feb 24 02:28:09 oil: pleaseeeeeee add "Email All" to lumberjack Feb 24 02:28:23 yeah Feb 24 02:28:36 if it was on github, I would submit a pull request. Feb 24 02:30:24 Tibfib: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-format-patch.html Feb 24 02:31:15 rwhitby: that's the same format as the "unified diff creator" by Jason right? Feb 24 02:31:25 ah, no. Feb 24 02:31:35 oops Feb 24 02:32:06 That "unified diff creator" tool is not suitable for real software development activities. Feb 24 02:32:38 Use git to send the patches, so they can be applied automatically when recieved. Feb 24 02:33:20 * rwhitby still doesn't understand why people need a gui to diff two files for a webOS patch. Feb 24 02:33:34 because we don't know the format? Feb 24 02:33:43 and it's faster than looking it up?
