AminCXhi everybody, i have some problems with flashing, its still on "Finishing flashing... done" and there is no "CMT flashed successfully" for about half hour ! please help me here .00:26
psycho_oreoswhich OS are you running on your computer and what was your command line?00:27
AminCXmaemo, n900 and i'm flashing with this : "D:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5>flasher-3.5.exe -F "D:\Documents and Settings\Amin\My Documents\Downloads\Music\RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.003_PR_COMBINED_003_ARM.bin" -f"00:29
*** beford has joined #maemo00:29
AminCXxp sp300:29
psycho_oreoshave you flashed the eMMC before you flashed using that parameter?00:30
AminCXyes i did that and it was successfull00:31
AminCXthis file : "RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin"00:31
AminCXand i'm flashing because of the no imei problem and the "all telephony functions are disabled due to ..." message .00:31
*** jhb has joined #maemo00:32
psycho_oreosso when you flashed the fiasco (which is what you flash after you did the eMMC) you weren't returned to prompt?00:33
psycho_oreosdid your N900 say anything on the screen?00:33
AminCXyes it's still on "Finishing flashing... done" and no there is no message on the phone and the screen is black , the led is still yellow .00:34
psycho_oreosI think your device (N900) might have ran out of power before flasher could finish its operation00:34
AminCXno it's almost full of charge or at least 80% percent . i tried several times and that's it. i event tried other version "RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1.003_PR_COMBINED_003_ARM.bin"00:36
psycho_oreosI'm not familiar with flashing under windows but I'm sure N900 is not meant to dim screen and show yellow/amber LED. During the entire flashing operation (especially without -R specified) your device should still display Nokia screen00:36
AminCXyes it's showing Nokia  screen .00:36
befordhttp://www.engadget.com/2011/11/25/researchers-put-smartphones-on-a-power-diet-drastically-improve/00:36
psycho_oreosand backlight should be constantly on as well00:36
befordn900 still in the news :o00:37
psycho_oreosbeford, goes to show that a geeks toy is still loved by researchers :)00:37
AminCXno the backlight is not on .00:37
*** mitsutaka has quit IRC00:38
*** mitsutaka has joined #maemo00:38
psycho_oreosAminCX, which is why I find it weird, though like I said that I never flashed my N900 under windows before.. My bet is to unplug the USB and try rebooting the N900 see if it loads up properly00:38
AminCXyes it loads up, but the error is still : "All telephony functions are disabled due to ..." and no IMEI !00:39
*** rd has quit IRC00:41
AminCXsomeone told me its because of something like RPL and ..., do you know anything about that ?00:41
*** ced117 has quit IRC00:44
SiceloAminCX: u can try a debian-based livecd.. eg ubuntu, knoppix00:44
*** freemangordon has quit IRC00:44
AminCXdo you think that will work ? i mean Linux vs Windows, is it differ enough ?00:45
Sicelo~flashing00:46
infobotmaemo-flashing is, like, http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware00:46
*** koo3 has quit IRC00:47
psycho_oreosI personally use linux here myself. I find that linux doesn't start autoprobing and asking for drivers if the drivers are not there. In other words, its more well behaved than with windows where you have to go around disabling new hardwares being detected00:47
psycho_oreosplus you can enable R&D mode with linux based flasher00:47
Macerwell.. i have to admit00:47
Macerthis synology is awesome00:48
Macer:)00:48
AminCXso it worst the shot ! i think i have an ubuntu in my virtual pc . gonna test that, but about RPL, nothing at all ?00:50
psycho_oreosyou might be able to get away with using linux under VM if you want to retain windows. Though using VM is not ideal as if the USB passthrough mode isn't clean it may cause issues00:51
Sicelo~rpl00:51
infobotMulti-file recursive string replacement. URL: http://www.laffeycomputer.com/software.html00:51
Siceloheh00:51
AminCXI'm a debian administrator, but just ssh and command line , so i have to learn ! I'm gonna download the ubuntu00:54
psycho_oreosno IMEI could mean issues with cal00:54
AminCXcal ?00:54
psycho_oreosnot sure what the abbreviation stands for but it deals with the critical part of the device, it manages modes like R&D for instances00:55
AminCXi think there is connection between hanging on that line and the no imei problem, maybe i finally figure it out !00:55
*** eijk has joined #maemo00:55
*** koo1 has quit IRC00:57
Siceloi also didn't have imei when i got my n900. simple reflash solved that00:57
*** trumee has quit IRC00:57
psycho_oreoswas your N900 brand new when you saw it didn't have IMEI?00:57
*** jhb has quit IRC00:57
*** jpe has quit IRC00:58
*** koo1 has joined #maemo00:58
AminCXwhat do you mean exactly ?00:58
*** trumee has joined #maemo00:59
psycho_oreosI was asking Sicelo, in my case, none of my N900s have no IMEI. One was bought brand new and the other two are second hands00:59
Siceloyes. 100% new. PR1.101:00
AminCXi think i bought it about 12-15 month ago .01:00
*** eijk has quit IRC01:00
AminCXFound device RX-51, hardware revision 210101:00
psycho_oreosweird, at the time when I had my N900 brand new, it would have also been PR1.1 or thereabouts01:00
AminCXi think it was p1.101:01
psycho_oreosslightly older revision01:01
*** croppa has quit IRC01:02
AminCXi love this device, and i think n9 gonna be better, unfortunately there is no guaranty on my n900 and there is no authorized repair service in the town neither !01:03
Sicelou don't need that AminCX :)01:03
psycho_oreoseww.. N901:04
Sicelothey'll just give u a shiny new E701:04
psycho_oreosor even a N801:04
AminCXno no no there is no change warranty in my area ! I'm in the hell here :d01:05
*** koo1 has quit IRC01:05
SiceloAminCX: your n900 isn't dead/bricked, so no need for any warranty related things01:06
psycho_oreosthough at this point in time, he won't have any cellular functionality01:07
*** trx has quit IRC01:07
psycho_oreosin other words, his N900 would probably be as good as its predecessors01:07
psycho_oreosAminCX, so what's the progress on flashing it using linux?01:08
AminCXany way it's gonna kill me, imagine a big phone like n900 and a little other one like 1102 in my little pocket ! N900 for awesomeness and other one for using as Phone !01:08
psycho_oreosmore like N900 being an internet tablet rather than a big phone01:09
AminCXi'm downloading latest version of ubuntu,01:09
*** larsivi has quit IRC01:09
*** Smily has joined #maemo01:10
psycho_oreosI still don't know why would N900 all of the sudden loses connectivity to the cellular network. It could be anything from a faulty board to maybe dirty contacts or even possibly swapping SIM cards out constantly01:11
AminCXabout phone stuff, everybody wants everything in a little shiny smartphone, and i'm a developer too, so i want a stylish advanced smartphone that do all the stuff like playing calling messaging and programs ...01:11
*** vivijim has quit IRC01:12
Sicelotracker waking up cpu too frequently :(01:12
AminCXi have a theory, there is little battery on the board, is that related to GSM module ? cause i think every time it's out of charge the problem comes up, maybe it's very silly .01:13
psycho_oreosI hate to own a smartphone with a smaller screen.. it seems already I have grown accustomed to N900's screen.. web browsing is already difficult as it is and any downsizing would mean I need to zoom into pages more and more01:13
psycho_oreosno the battery is to keep dates and what not iinm01:13
psycho_oreoskinda like a CMOS battery on a normal computer01:13
Macerheh01:14
Macerthe n900 has a secondary battery for that01:14
*** trx has joined #maemo01:14
AminCXyeah i know, and i see every time i pull out the battery and put it back it asks me the date/time , but before this problem it saves those things .01:14
psycho_oreosDocScrutinizer pointed that out awhile ago, its a small cell battery iinm or cell shaped battery01:15
Macermy old n900s internal battery broke like that01:15
Macerand every time i pulled the battery it would ask for the time01:15
DocScrutinizerbutton cell01:15
psycho_oreoscorrection, button cell shaped :)01:15
AminCXso this is not related event a little ?01:16
psycho_oreostwo of my N900 would constantly ask for date and time even if I momentarily dislodge the main battery.01:16
*** aloril has quit IRC01:16
psycho_oreosheh hardware hackers like DocScrutinizer would probably know the best ;)01:17
MacerDocScrutinizer: how difficult is replacing it? have to solder?01:17
psycho_oreosor vi___, etc01:17
Maceri am watching enron: smartest guys in the room01:17
Macerthe bandwidth idea was kind of good01:17
DocScrutinizerAminCX: which related event?01:17
Macerthey just didnt do it right01:18
psycho_oreosDocScrutinizer, something to do with no IMEI and cannot connect to cellular network01:18
DocScrutinizernah01:18
psycho_oreoseven the flashing mode (under windows) fails01:18
DocScrutinizerbutton cell backup battery is for realtime clock only01:18
Macerlol. that is a windows problem01:18
*** Jooles_ has joined #maemo01:19
AminCXdo the small battery on the board related anyway to the GSM module, and cause the "all telephony functions are disabled due to ." ?01:19
DocScrutinizerand it'S notorious to break after like 9..12months of normal usage. So psycho_oreos observation is rather normal01:19
psycho_oreosso far most of us are assuming that it is windows problem, but only one way to tell is to get AminCX to flash using linux and to see if flashing also fails01:19
DocScrutinizerAminCX: no01:19
*** raptor67682 has quit IRC01:20
psycho_oreoso.O01:20
MacerAminCX: i had the same problem flashing and fixed it by using my linux box01:20
psycho_oreosa few people on tmo board have opted to try and bend their pin contacts on the N900 in a bid to get the SIM card detected but the results came up as mixed, mostly no dice iinm01:21
DocScrutinizeryep01:21
*** OkropNick has quit IRC01:21
psycho_oreosand I really wouldn't know what would cause no IMEI, even if flashing fails to restore it, cmt/cal is probably corrupt01:21
psycho_oreoserr cal01:21
AminCXsure, i'm gonna do that but like i said i'm in the hell and the net line is a little slow here, for about 700MB i have to wait a hour .01:22
psycho_oreosAminCX, you could go for a minimal one lol, you don't need a full blown linux01:22
psycho_oreossurely you'd know that if you been a debian admin01:22
DocScrutinizerno IMEI is basically unrelated to SIM, at least should. Wait a blink....01:22
AminCXits bb5 SLV3 is'nt it ? someone told me you have to buy RPL cause it's crashed and he was so sure !01:23
*** raptor67682 has joined #maemo01:23
SpeedEvilyeah. IMEI is modem01:23
psycho_oreosyeah I also think that IMEI is definitely not related to SIM, its some other area on the device is either not storing or somehow the data is corrupted. IMSI is related to SIM however01:23
DocScrutinizernah, even without any SIM my "about product" shows IMEI01:23
psycho_oreosmy third N900 (without SIM) still shows IMEI, so yeah01:24
AminCXpsycho_oreos: ouch it's 48% past the download :-D01:24
DocScrutinizermissing IMEI usually means your HW is defect01:24
psycho_oreosAminCX, oh well too late now, maybe you can keep that in mind next time01:24
psycho_oreosits funny if its a HW defect, Sicelo mentioned his N900 came without IMEI but he flashed it and IMEI started appearing01:25
AminCXpsycho_oreos: i went to this and i wasn't so curios :-D http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download01:25
psycho_oreosAminCX, there's plenty of other distros out there, like slax, slitaz, puppylinux.. all there to minimise excessive downloads.. sure enough that ubuntu is probably somewhat well condoned here but :)01:26
AminCXsomehow i love ubuntu style in GUI !01:26
* psycho_oreos is reminded about the current ones that feature unity01:26
HyperSnyperanyone know anything of this new 3G method that can "reduce power usage by 74%" is an n900 in pic > http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/25/researchers-put-smartphones-on-a-power-diet-drastically-improve/01:27
DocScrutinizerpsycho_oreos: usually flashing of cmt FW either works or fails but shouldn't break the IMEI readout. However there might be cases where reflashing COMBINED also reflashes cmt FW and thus fixes some glitch01:27
AminCXabout the imei, i searched almost all of the web about my problems, and believe me there is no straight answer for it !01:27
psycho_oreosDocScrutinizer, ahh nice so I guess it could be the last hope for AminCX then :) in a bid to restore IMEI01:27
Sicelothe imei thing delayed my flashing, lol, as it's needed to download firmware. i was not so sure if sticker on my N900 was legit. i remember i even asked here on chan01:28
DocScrutinizeryou can't rstore IMEI, but you can restore the software on modem that answers your query for IMEI01:28
psycho_oreoswell my bad01:28
AminCXdid i said that i dropped my n900 in the water ? of course on the ground and it was not much water( about 3 millimeters), and after that it was crashed, but after a week it goes well somehow !01:29
*** aloril has joined #maemo01:29
*** bsdmaniak has quit IRC01:29
* Sicelo fully agrees with DocScrutinizer. i did full flash.. not really for the imei thing.. just update to pr1.3, and imei 'magically' appeared01:29
SiceloO.O01:29
psycho_oreosyou should have informed us earlier about that.. maybe the water have damaged the device internally should you have not taken any actions to properly dry the device up01:30
DocScrutinizerAminCX: say goodbye to your modem then01:30
*** bjv has left #maemo01:30
psycho_oreosif not to your modem, your wireless chipset would fail to work01:30
AminCXno no , i'm pretty sure it's not damaged, it was ok after a week, but suddenly now it's dead :(01:30
psycho_oreostwo tmo threads I've encountered where their N900 were exposed to accidental liquid spills shows up errors with getting wireless to work01:31
AminCXthe wireless chipset is completely ok .01:31
DocScrutinizeryeah sure, because 1 week is simply not enough to dry the device, and corrosion by electrolysis goes on as long as you power the device. Eventually it breaks permanently01:31
psycho_oreosthe bottom line is that as soon as your device was exposed to liquid (even if immersed), you should have quickly acted to properly dry the device up.01:32
psycho_oreosliquids also act as conductors, which can shorten the contacts on the board up when the device is in operation01:33
*** smhar has quit IRC01:33
DocScrutinizerFIRST THING: remove batery01:33
AminCXi did those things, removed battery rice ....01:33
DocScrutinizerand don't dare to insert it before you dried the device for 2 weeks at a warm place01:33
DocScrutinizerrice is BS01:33
bindihow?01:34
AminCXoh no, just 24 hour and i turned it on .01:34
*** smhar has joined #maemo01:34
psycho_oreossilca gel probably would have worked better but you still need to remove as much moisture as you can with a microfibre cloth01:34
AminCXit was 4 month a go, why now ?!:(01:34
psycho_oreosthe whole N900 needs to be disassembled as well01:35
DocScrutinizersome of the balls of the chips may have suffered from corrosion and now on a random mechanical stress broke completely01:35
AminCXouch, so i have to say goodbye to this one, yes ?01:36
DocScrutinizertry flashing it. if that doesn't help then alas yes, it's dead Jim01:36
psycho_oreosits not fully dead, it'll probably function without cellular connectivity.. maybe over time other functions may cease to act properly01:36
*** mase76 has quit IRC01:37
DocScrutinizeryes01:37
* psycho_oreos sighs at another dead N900.. poor N90001:37
*** valerius has joined #maemo01:37
AminCXwow, it was so nice for me anyway, any time i needed anything n900 was for me, it was somehow meant for me, anything i needed was always there , in a little beautiful device, hhhhhh......01:38
psycho_oreosyou should have realised that nokia no longer manufactures N900 anymore, so you should protect your N900 even more01:39
psycho_oreosconductive liquids and electronics don't mix01:40
DocScrutinizerdon't say that, see "does it blend"01:40
AminCXno the n900 is just a phone, mine is different for me, memories i have with it is not replacable ! anyway gone is gone.01:41
DocScrutinizerwell, I hope you can make it work again, there'S a small chance it will resurrect on flashing COMBINED01:41
DocScrutinizerrepair shops may try to hot-air resolder all the modem chips01:42
AminCXthank you all for the time you spend for me :) i will try again flashing with linux . and give you the results, after that the only way is repair services, thank you again ;)01:43
DocScrutinizerif you can't get it to full operation, then you might consider selling it to those looking for broken devices, and get yourself another working used one01:43
psycho_oreosbackup your contents if you can01:44
psycho_oreosoh wait nevermind, you've already flashed eMMC01:44
DocScrutinizeroooh problems with flashing as well?01:44
*** LaoLang_cool has joined #maemo01:44
psycho_oreosyeah he had issues flashing the COMBINED01:44
DocScrutinizer:-/01:44
DocScrutinizerlog please01:45
AminCXyeah i'm a little disappointed here, but i will not loose my hope :)01:45
DocScrutinizerAminCX: you can still use the device?01:46
DocScrutinizerlike - get a xterm?01:46
AminCXyes i can, it's on.01:46
AminCXyes i can .01:46
DocScrutinizerdo you have rootsh installed?01:46

DocScrutinizeryou could try coldflashing cmt, but that'S sth nobody ever has done afaik02:35
DocScrutinizerso it's pretty unclear how that shall work on a working devie02:36

*** mase76 has joined #maemo02:39
AminCXdon't you have anything in mind about how to figure out that is it hardware or software ?02:39

DocScrutinizercoldflashing the main processor works with >>--cold-flash, -c        "Cold flash" the device<<, I don't find a matching --cmt-cold-flash though02:41
*** r00t|home has joined #maemo02:42
DocScrutinizerget device to BNokia repair shop, tell them you won't accept a swap for another model02:42
DocScrutinizeror try disassembling the device and rinsing it with 99% ethanol/methanol/isopropyl02:44
DocScrutinizeractually I'm short of really good ideas how to help any further02:44
*** kwtm has quit IRC02:45
AminCXit's so risky, i will try the one, if it was software i was gonna do anything but hardware :(02:45
AminCXand for the record i opened up the device twice, and the last time i sprayed and checked the antenna connectors and pulled them up and did other things, it was ok after that! but 8 or 10 hour later the error aperas . so i think it is definitly hardware .02:47

SpeedEvilFlexing the PCB, or in principle, reflowing the chip - may make it better temporarily or permenantly02:48
DocScrutinizeror worse ;-)02:48
SpeedEvilWell - it's hard for the modem to get worse02:49
SpeedEvilBut yes.02:49
AminCXouch ! but i don't know what exactly did it right ! i just played with the board !02:49
DocScrutinizerbut yeah, gently(!) pushing on the PCB while booting up may show it works which proves it's a solder defect02:49
SpeedEvilWhat we really need is for someone to make a thin module that can fit on the existing solder-pads, after teh chips are cleaned off, and has a more modern modem. :)02:50
DocScrutinizerugh02:50

*** liar has quit IRC04:38
DocScrutinizerWLAN gets switched off by unloading the wl1251.ko module04:39
DocScrutinizerbut ICD2 does that for you04:39
Anita1I nearly don't use wifi on n900, so choose to unload it04:39
DocScrutinizerthere's been a short while where it didn't, somewhere shortly after PR1.0.1 or sth04:39
Anita1the program that I mentioned was advanced interface switcher04:40
DocScrutinizerwhich caused the bug of "battery drains like hell when WLAN not associated to AP04:40
psycho_oreosyou could probably also blacklist wl12{xx,51} module so that it would not get loaded at subsequent bootups04:41
Anita1for wlan, I removed the tick for enable on startup. thats all.04:41
DocScrutinizerpsycho_oreos: that's a funny idea, but not really useful04:41
DocScrutinizersimply disable WLAN all together04:41
psycho_oreosDocScrutinizer, not at all but heck, someone wants to save power then that's one of the more extreme measures :D04:42
Anita1what you mean, disable wlan all together? does AIS not do it?04:42
DocScrutinizerpsycho_oreos: as mentioned before, ICD2 unloads that module every 5 minutes when you said "check for wlan availability interval: 5min"04:43
DocScrutinizerwhen you disable WLAN then the module never gets loaded04:43
psycho_oreosDocScrutinizer, ahh I didn't know that, I thought ICD2 would not do something like iwlist wlan0 scan every 5 or minutes interval04:43
DocScrutinizerAnita1: that function in this AIS app is cruft04:44
psycho_oreosI don't use AIS so I wouldn't know04:44
DocScrutinizerme neither04:44
psycho_oreosplus I hardly ever had the need to disable wireless because I use it almost every time04:44
Anita1hm. that looked handy for me actually, pity it is not much effective then04:45
DocScrutinizerwhat I know however is my syslog that shows module and iw1251 firmware loading logs every 10 min04:45
psycho_oreosthere are plenty of ways to save battery power.. stuff like autodisconnect and setting brightness levels down to minimum, etc helps04:46
psycho_oreoseven lower backlight timeout04:46
DocScrutinizerso simply uncheck the "automatically switch to WLAN if available" checkbox in settings->internet and all is fine04:47
SpeedEvilBacklight - on the lower levels - is almost unimportant - the screen being on uses lots of power04:48
DocScrutinizerauto-disconnect is quite questionable as well04:48
psycho_oreosprobably also change the connect automatically to `always ask' as well04:48
* luke-jr wonders why monitor mode can't sniff 3-4 channels at the same time04:48
SpeedEvilluke-jr: Hardware limits.04:48

*** Andy80 has quit IRC05:23
Anita1there's nothing wrong there.05:23
DocScrutinizerhmm05:23
DocScrutinizersomething with the guts of ICD2 is messed up05:23
Anita1Let me try to explain again, if I try to connect just after startup nothing happens, can't even choose which connection to use. But if I load wifi driver, then everything is ok, can unload wifi after that, it is just as to be.05:24
Anita1have to install AIS again, have no internet connection. great =)05:25
DocScrutinizerwell, wifi driver is not supposed to get unloaded by any non-osso random app05:26
DocScrutinizerso obviously AIS messed up a lot of things05:26
Anita1probably.05:26
DocScrutinizerin a mission to do things that are not really needed or would make any sense at all05:26
DocScrutinizerseems AIS should get kicked from extras if it's there05:28

Anita1can you do it for me Doc?05:41
DocScrutinizeroh well, 0.3.5.1 was like 14 months ago. around that time there might have been an excuse to unload wl1251 driver05:41

Anita1can you raise a bug for this app?05:42
DocScrutinizerthere have been other apps that did something pretty useful but alas the wrong way. Sometimes devels are interested, sometimes not05:43
Anita1ok now it refuses to open settings window. truly buggy app.05:44
DocScrutinizerin this case I would need to install the crappy app to get to know what it does and how it does that, or I had to study the friggin sourcecode to the last line. Can't see any of both happening in the near future05:44

freemangordonand here https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/?root=tips11:46
freemangordonwhy limited?11:47
freemangordonI mean those are working examples11:47
jonwillimited because they dont do the fancy stuff libhildon-im-vkbrenderer does11:47
freemangordoninstead of RE vkb-renderer, I think we can just re-write th functionality in in.11:47
freemangordonwhich one?11:48
freemangordonwhat is that fancy stuff11:48
freemangordon?11:48
jonwilnot 100% sure11:48
*** eMHa_ has quit IRC11:48
freemangordondictionary search is not in vkb-renderer11:48
freemangordonAIUI11:49
freemangordonwhat needs to be done is an implementation of .vkb parser11:49
jonwilyeah if/when I clone that renderer I will use bits of code from hildon-input-method-plugins-examle11:50
jonwilthere is more in the vkb files than you think11:50
freemangordonwhich we already have in python11:50
jonwilbest way to do vkb is to just use libimlayouts directly11:50
jonwilI have a .h file for that11:50
freemangordonI know what is in .vkb files, trust me on that11:50
jonwilI also know11:50
jonwilthe main thing hildon-input-method-plugins-example is missing are things to handle the correct key size and position and margin stuff from the vkb files11:51
freemangordonso, what it is so special? layouts for two modes plus layout for keyboard which appear when you press blue arrow - sym11:52
freemangordonbtw .vkb files has support for portrait AFAIK11:52
jonwilI need to dig back into hildon-im-vkbrenderer a bit more to see what funky bits it does11:53
freemangordonwhy, if I remember correctly button/font sizes are written in .vkb file itself, no need for calculations11:53
jonwilyes they are11:53
jonwilbut hildon-input-method-plugins-example doesnt do anything with them11:54
freemangordonof course they don't :) .11:54
jonwilso the logic for parsing that data and computing exact position of where to draw needs to be written11:54
freemangordonyes11:54
freemangordonbut it is not a rocket science11:54
freemangordonwe have a python code already doing that11:54
freemangordonalmost that.11:55
jonwilalso, hildon-input-method-plugins-example plugs in at a much higher level than libhildon-im-vkbrenderer11:55
freemangordonsure11:55
jonwiltrust me, hildon-input-method-plugins-example is good and has some stuff we can pinch11:56
jonwilbut its not the magic bullet you seem to think it is11:56
freemangordonno11:56
freemangordonI don't think it is a magic bullet11:56
jonwilnot if we want to be feature complete with libhildon-im-vkbrenderer11:56
jonwilanyhow, I plan to dig into libhildon-im-vkbrenderer soon11:56
freemangordonand vkb-renderer stuf has to be implementd11:56
jonwiland finish my work on it11:56
freemangordonbut no need to RE it11:56
jonwilor continue11:56
freemangordonjust re-implement the functionality11:57
jonwilI already have most of it reverse engineered anyway11:57
freemangordonwow, why didn't you tell me that yesterday when i said I am going to RE it11:57
freemangordon:)11:57
jonwilwell I dont have it reverse enginereed, I just have it mostly layed out in IDA :P11:58
freemangordonwhich binary are you using arm or 38611:58
freemangordon?11:58
jonwilx8611:58
freemangordonand does your IDA have c pseudocode analyser?11:59
