DocScrutinizer05it is, unless people simply reject it00:13
DocScrutinizer05in some channels the concept of an infobot isn't appreciated00:13

DocScrutinizer05~flashing00:15
infoboti heard maemo-flashing is http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware, or - on linux PC - download&extract http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/patches_n_tools/maemo-my-private-workdir.tgz, cd into it, do sudo ./flash-it-all.sh; or see ~flashing-cmdline, or see ~lazyflashing00:15
ff_~eink00:16
ff_something like n900 with eink & lcd display would be fantastico :)00:17
DocScrutinizer05hehe yes00:17
DocScrutinizer05e-ink 11" rolled up to only form a 10mm*25mm*<height of display> device00:19
ff_and with a litte bit more of memory, cpu as second but ya00:19
DocScrutinizer05would 4 times the memory suffice? ;-)00:19
DocScrutinizer05still no e-ink, but... neo900 at least provides as much memory as technically feasible00:20
ff_min 512MB, 1GB is fine, 2GB with maemo will be great00:21
ff_but it's pricey00:23
DocScrutinizer052GB isn't feasible on OMAP300:25
DocScrutinizer05missing addr lines00:25
ff_r0kk3rz sed: "I think for mass appeal and ease of procurement it should be a straight forward android device with a keyboard. After delivery we can worry about porting various operating systems to it, like fremantle or sailfish or whatever people want.00:25
ff_I know many people here wont like that idea, but its the best way to keep costs down maximise volume"00:25
DocScrutinizer05you'd need paging, like on early DOS PCs00:25
DocScrutinizer05won't fly00:26
*** ketas has quit IRC00:28
ff_so, with OMAP3 is 1GB max?00:28
DocScrutinizer05you can't compete to Samsung, LG et al on an android playground, when your only seeling point is a hw lbd00:28
DocScrutinizer05yes00:28
DocScrutinizer05selling*00:28
DocScrutinizer05selling point is a hw keyboard* - now00:29
DocScrutinizer05and actually you can't port fremantle to all arbitrary android devices. Not only because of fremantle closed blobs (which we mostly REed meanwhile) but particularly because of android closed blobs for the hardware00:30
ff_struggle on two sides, hm it can be more difficult then I thought in first glance00:33
DocScrutinizer05if porting would be that easy, then maemo6 aka HARM(attan) aka N9's OS would have ported to a vast number of more recent hardware already00:35
*** dafox has quit IRC00:37
ff_many devs probably is trying it already00:38
*** ketas has joined #maemo00:38
DocScrutinizer05Jolla tried to implement a maemo resurrection called sailfish (based on nemo/mer) *on top* of existing Android hardware abstraction layer. Seems while they achieved to roll out something, the appeal of maemo got lost00:38
ff_or maybe few, because they know :)00:39
DocScrutinizer05I for one barely touch my jolla phone once a year, since the hardware-introduced quirks suck donkey balls. E.G you can't do a clean full reflash on jolla phone, since Jolla Inc doesn't own the copyright to the blobs and thus can't provide a full "firmware image" to do a full reflash of that snapdragon crap in jollaphone00:41
ff_so, is it music of past - light, clean, fast, mobile OS?00:42
*** Wizzup has quit IRC00:42
*** Wizzup has joined #maemo00:42
DocScrutinizer05unlike many others, I consider maemo fremantle a viable alternative00:43
DocScrutinizer05it's probably still the best cleanest comprehensive phone OS I've seen so far00:44
DocScrutinizer05and right this moment already gets ported to a cheap tablet by freemangordon and a few others00:46
DocScrutinizer05and it's the OS of choice for Neo90000:46
ff_and still some parts of hardware are great, like fmtx, hw kb and so on00:46
ff_we'll see what future bring00:48
DocScrutinizer05I hope Neo900, "soon". Right now we're in layout of prototype_v200:49
DocScrutinizer05"porting" of fremantle to Neo900 should be a nobrainer00:50
ff_certainly another opportunities00:50

buZzhmmf oneclick install of CSSU seems to not work here, lets reflash from 0 :P02:47
DocScrutinizer05hmm?03:01
buZzfresh n900 flash (lazy flasher) and oneclick testing cssu03:01
buZzgoing for attempt #203:01
buZz:P03:01
DocScrutinizer05result?03:01
buZzon attempt #1 i ended up with constant portrait mode, a 'zoomed out screen' and no working application launcher03:01
DocScrutinizer05duh!03:02
buZzhm?03:02
DocScrutinizer05sounds like major crash03:02
DocScrutinizer05gigantic failure03:02
buZzoh ok, thought you ment there was an obvious error :P03:02
DocScrutinizer05no, absolutely non-obvious and scary03:03
DocScrutinizer05please make sure to let device finish optimization after full-flash03:04
buZzah its fine, its just a fresh flash03:04
buZzhow could i be sure?03:04
DocScrutinizer05hmm, wait 5 minutes ?03:04
DocScrutinizer05after first reboot03:05
DocScrutinizer05also make sure to do a full-reflash, not only rootfs03:06
DocScrutinizer05it's a tad tricky to actually know if immediately after full-reflash the device already booted and started optimization, or it's still waiting for reboot that it often needs to get triggered manually after flash03:08

DocScrutinizer05contacts can also get exported as vcard03:25
fishbulbwhat's that03:26

buZzandroid usually doesnt store contacts or txt msgs on the device03:32
buZzits in the cloud man03:32
buZzdependancy on external servers, thats whats android about03:33
DocScrutinizer05I'm incredibly pedantic when it's about incredibly arrogant and insulting users03:33
fishbulbwhat is android?03:34
fishbulbphones that weren't made in 2009 don't exist03:34
fishbulbbuZz, the only thing that HAS to be linked to the phone is a gmail address03:34
buZzeh sure03:34
buZzeither way, most storage on a android is in sqlite dbs03:34
fishbulbbut how to get the contacts and conversations and stuff from the n900 to something else03:34
buZz02:24:16 < DocScrutinizer05> your data is in backup, this could be another possible approach03:35

DocScrutinizer05follow the instructions as displayed on screen, after that04:15
fishbulbI did not know that04:15
fishbulbthat is a good feature04:15
fishbulbis there a common format for sms "conversations" ?04:18
DocScrutinizer05no, those are in comm_and_cal.zip/uzip://Root/home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/backup.tgz/utar://el-v1.db04:22
DocScrutinizer05format of el-v1.db is largely unknown, afaik04:23
DocScrutinizer05anyway looks like a SQL dump in backup04:24
DocScrutinizer05http://paste.opensuse.org/5427361904:24
fishbulbso what's the difference between sqlite dbs and "dump"04:25
DocScrutinizer05INSERT INTO "Events" VALUES(14,3,7,1279364669,1279364615,1279364669,1,0,0,0,'ring/tel/ring','<SelfHandle>','o2 Team',NULL,'Lieber o2 Kunde, Ihr/e o2 Internet Pack L wird am 18.07.2010 automa tisch für Sie verlängert, sofern Ihr Guthaben ausreichend ist.','o2 Team',0,0);04:26
DocScrutinizer05is dump, while sqlite binary is cluttered with gibberish04:26
fishbulbgibberish that a phone can make sense of apparently?04:27
DocScrutinizer05if it has the app knowing the database structure, then yes04:27
fishbulbbuZz said android used it04:28
DocScrutinizer05well, that doesn't mean a thing, like "device XYZ uses Windows"04:28
DocScrutinizer05sqlite is a database04:28
DocScrutinizer05a variant of generic SQL database engines04:29
DocScrutinizer05http://paste.opensuse.org/2585855704:30
DocScrutinizer05more complete: http://paste.opensuse.org/1879278404:31
DocScrutinizer05eventlogger (el) [version 1: -v1] is a virtual service created by several apps in cooperation, on maemo. It stores SMS, calls etc in that sqlite database el-v1.db04:33
DocScrutinizer05I never heard of a export feature for SMS04:34
DocScrutinizer05anyway running "sqlite3 <el-v1db" (the untarred unzipped dump file from backup: comm_and_cal.zip/uzip://Root/home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/backup.tgz/utar://el-v1.db )  would recreate the complete database on any device that knows SQL(ite). Then you _could_ try to make sense of the database, by running SQL queries against it04:38
DocScrutinizer05the start of the dump gives a faint idea what the db looks like and what it does: http://paste.opensuse.org/6811988404:41

buZzis that official nokia case any good?12:43
buZzthe CP-32112:43
*** Rob-y-h has left #maemo12:43
KotCzarnyits a case, not even a security latch12:44
KotCzarnyonly positive factor it's the size of n90012:44
buZzhmhm12:47
KotCzarnyso it might be a tight fit12:47
buZzany other recommendations? its mostly just for storage, doesnt have to be able to use it from inside12:47
KotCzarnywhat is the use case?12:47
buZz'join pile of other maemo devices'12:47
buZz:P12:48
KotCzarnynot enough data :P12:48
buZz:P12:49
buZzi have the 770, n800, n810 and n900 , just as collectables12:49
buZzall have original nokia cases12:49
KotCzarnythen surely go for it12:49
KotCzarnyas its original nokia case12:49
buZz^_^12:49
buZzits the only nokia case for n900, right?12:50
buZzoh, CP-408 is also one .. hmm12:53
KotCzarnygrab both12:54
KotCzarnythey are cheap12:54
buZzcant find the cp-408 for sale on ebay12:54
KotCzarnycheck amazon12:55
DocScrutinizer05cp.408 looks weird - how would you slide it open without the display latching up in the brackets?13:08
KotCzarnyyou dont, you scrap the paint eventually13:08
DocScrutinizer05CP-321 looks similarly inconvenient in a different way13:09
KotCzarnyits mostly for hwkb-less usage13:09
Michael_a380I use a Lowepro. It's a camera case, but still a nice fit.13:14
Michael_a380yeah, fiddling with a zip all the time13:16
buZzCP-321 is ideal i think13:18
buZzmatches the case i have for N81013:18

Michael_a380Going to soon have a look at this: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/nerang/phone-accessories/bulk-lot-of-nokia-phone-accessories/112143433213:23
Michael_a380Anything paticular to look out for (valuable), that would make it worthwhile?13:24
buZznew batteries :)13:25
KotCzarnyusb/dcin adapters, >1A chargers13:25
Michael_a380It would be all 'old stock', shelf life may not be good for batteries13:26
KotCzarnyoriginal car charger > any chinese noname crap13:26
KotCzarnyand other car/bike/case accessories you would use13:26
fishbulbhow do you get vcard 3.0 to a csv format android can use13:29
fishbulbbecause if you export contacts from n900 it ends up as hundreds of individual .vcf files13:29
KotCzarnyfishbulb: use bluetooth to transfer all contacts to android phone13:30
KotCzarnyor just cat *.vcf >../big.vcf and try to load it on android13:30
fishbulbuse bluetooth?13:31
fishbulbI don't think I've ever successfully transferred a file with bluetooth on anything13:31
KotCzarnynot file. 'share contacts'13:32
fishbulbwith what?13:32
Michael_a380Do you have 2 phones connected with bluetooth?13:32
Michael_a380* to each other.13:35
fishbulbnow I do, surprisingly13:36
fishbulbI tried to share the contacts and it failed immediately13:38
Michael_a380If my brother finds his Android, I may be able to try it.13:40

Michael_a380https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=9545613:52
Michael_a380It's been done before (2015)13:53
Michael_a380At least you know, it should be possible13:54
fishbulbwhat is "contacts app"13:54
fishbulbthat post just says "can you share them via bluetooth with contacts app"13:54
fishbulbthen "yes"13:55
fishbulbcontacts app on what13:55
fishbulbI've got them paired13:55
fishbulbtried "sharing contacts" with the transfer and sync thing in the n900 menu13:56
fishbulbthe transfer fails all the time13:56
fishbulbn900 settings menu13:56
Michael_a380So, you went through "Export contacts wizard"?14:04
Michael_a380on n90014:04
fishbulbyeah it doesn't transfer anything14:05
fishbulbthe phones are both paired, a galaxy s5 and n90014:05
fishbulbI exported the contacts to the sd card, and it's hundreds of individual .vcf files14:06
fishbulbexported them as vcard 3.014:06
Michael_a380I only get up to "Export contacts 4/5: Folder and location". The Android doesn't show up for selecting location, for me ATM14:07
KotCzarnysave to file, then send the file?14:11
fishbulbit saves to individual vcard files only14:11
KotCzarnydid you try the 'cat' trick ?14:12
fishbulbwhich cat trick14:12
KotCzarnycat *.vcf > ../big.vcf14:12
fishbulbit doesn't work14:25
Michael_a380how many contacts to transfer?14:27
fishbulbtoo many to do each one14:27
fishbulba shitload, I've had an n900 forever, this is the first time I've had to transfer any contacts to any other device14:28
fishbulbhaving a phone is critical, unfortunately I need to use android for a while14:29
Michael_a380Maybe a bug developed some time. Do you have or know of anyone else with an n900? It may work with a "middle man" (just a guess).14:32
fishbulbyour random vague guessing isn't really helping14:32
fishbulbthere are 3 n900's here, is there something specific you're suggesting14:33
Michael_a380I would try syncing with another n900 that is closest to original stock. Then see if that phone can sync with the android.14:36
Michael_a380Or first see if the other 2 n900_s can sync contacts with the android14:37

Vajbyup and pefromance wise i looked that it discrete card had only 20 points advantage19:37
KotCzarnydepends on discrete card19:37
KotCzarnyon my t500, ati 3650 is ~2x faster than integrated19:37
Vajbwell the one and only listed in t520 part in wikipedia19:37
Vajbnvidia nvs 4500 if recall it right19:38
KotCzarnyhttp://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:T52019:38
KotCzarnythis is the site you should bookmark19:38
KotCzarnyonce you start yourself on thinkpads19:38
Vajb4200 actually19:39
Vajbyes it was different wiki but information was accurate enough :)19:40
KotCzarnyyeah, they look very close in benchmarks19:41
Vajbbookmarked btw19:42
KotCzarnybut for 3d dedicated 1gb is nice19:42
Vajbsure thing, but i patted myself on back by thinking that if play it'll be something like BG119:43
Vajbif i*19:43
KotCzarnyhow do you like it so far? was the upgrade noticeable?19:43
KotCzarnywould you do it again?19:43
Vajbwell didn't get it yet actually, but bothered seller with one last detail ;)19:44
KotCzarny:)19:44
KotCzarnyget the Type string19:45
Vajbhe is waiting the transaction to be visible in bank and then sending19:45
KotCzarnyie. Type xxxx-yyy19:45
KotCzarnyit will describe config in detail19:45
Vajbi already know most of the details, but i'll let u know when i see it19:49
Vajbi did quick comparision in cpuboss and amazingly it should have more bunch than my gf's old laptop19:49
KotCzarny:)19:49
Vajbdidn't tell that to her because she paid more ;)19:50
KotCzarnythat's why i will never buy new laptop19:50
Vajbhmm punch actually19:50
KotCzarnybrunch19:50
Vajbthink i wont either19:50
KotCzarnysilicon gets old, but those old devices would probably work longer than currently sold ones19:51
Vajbwell if they r anything similiar to modern phones they will19:53
Vajbmy friends complain that their 2yo old phones became too slow and unresponsive that they had to bought new19:53
Vajbcool that site has maintenance manual19:54
KotCzarnyyes, it has plenty of model specific hacks too19:54
Vajbi see that there is 8 different cpu's for this model. If i happen to find say quad core which is mentioned in list. I suppose it just fits and works?20:09
KotCzarnyyes20:09
KotCzarnyin t series cpu is socketed20:09

*** ubizzy has quit IRC20:29
Vajboh i see. So far i saw just a little difference between cpu's20:32
KotCzarnywell, some folks were upgrading to quad cores, higher freqs etc20:32
KotCzarnyif chip has same TDP, it should be safe upgrade20:33
Vajbtdp?20:34
KotCzarnybut since you wouldnt be needing it for serious work even dual core will suffice20:34
KotCzarnythermal design power20:34
KotCzarny'how much heat this thingie will radiate'20:34
Vajbah ok20:34
Vajbhmm i just realised that there has been full hd version also. I had that on my features whished list, but i dropped it since no offers of such devices20:35

KotCzarnywell, a bit more ;)20:43
Vajbyeah slightly20:43

KotCzarnythey will get shot 'because it's chinese'. which is a pity if they really want to make good phones20:52
KotCzarnythough since its only chinese market right now, who knows20:53
Vajbthat description kinda sounded like the description of my friends new chinese phone...20:54
KotCzarny4gb of ram, 64gb of storage, dual amplifier, snapdragon 430, x6 lte.20:54
KotCzarnyso much specs wasted on android, eh20:55
KotCzarnyquick, someone email them about alternative os! just say that we would need open drivers and they have a winner ;)20:55
