Michael_a380Doubtful, but can the n9 seamlessly access an n900's SD card (via bluetooth)? Is a 'charger cover', a must?14:12
Michael_a380eMMC wear, is a concern14:15
KotCzarnyas long you dont run 24/7 camera writing app or do any other for of constant writing its ok14:16
L29Ahi'd say you should expect 1000 cycles14:17
sicelo-dunno if we're exposing anything from N900 via obex (but most likely it should be possible to enable/setup) .. then on your N9 you just need a client of sorts14:17
KotCzarnyyou can install tinysmb14:18
KotCzarnyeasiest imo14:18
Michael_a380Thanks. Will likely pick it up next week.14:22

Vajbim noticing some wear on my device. Screen is having a little wobble when opened when closed it closes a bit too far. Like body and screen r not alligned, but screen is maybe two millimeters lower than body. Is this something to get worried over, or might there be some screw getting loose?19:25
Vajbwhen opened. When closed....*19:25
Vajbdevice in question is n90019:26
KotCzarnybuy n900 with broken modem but perfect chassis for dirt cheap and swap?19:36
Vajbwell i have 3 of them already ;)19:40
Vajbbut i was wondering if this is more like known problem or just me.19:41

DocScrutinizer05misalignment is very unusual20:01
DocScrutinizer05'wobbly' not *so* much20:01
DocScrutinizer05check the 4 phillips screws under battery cover (not the 2 torx holding the kbd frame)20:04
DocScrutinizer05but if they're loose, they still wouldn't allow for X/Y offset, only for Z tilt and distance misadjustment20:05
Vajbthx, will do20:07
DocScrutinizer05~l1_220:24
DocScrutinizer05~ping20:24
DocScrutinizer05the bot starts annoying me20:25
* DocScrutinizer05 needs to write a irc client script to automatically reboot the bot20:25

*** F3l1x_10m is now known as sark_damus20:33
Vajbokay20:33
DocScrutinizer05also carefully follow 1) p.19!20:34
DocScrutinizer05oops 2)20:34
DocScrutinizer0515Ncm!20:34
DocScrutinizer05max20:34
DocScrutinizer05use 100% ok screwdriver of fitting size!20:35
DocScrutinizer05if you have no idea what's 15Ncm, twist the screwdriver shaft (usually ~10mm diameter) between fingertips of thumb and digit finger, by "rubbing" the fingertips in opposite direction20:37
DocScrutinizer05do NOT grab the complete screwdriver and turn it from your wrist20:38
DocScrutinizer05and again: using a high quality 100% undamaged pristine screwdriver of matching size is vital20:41
DocScrutinizer05once you found your screwdriver slips since it's wrong size or worn out, it's too late and damage to screw head done20:42
*** geaaru has quit IRC20:53
Vajbyeah i know my way around screw heads :)20:54
Vajbi use few hundreds of thousands in a year while work20:55
DocScrutinizer05good :-D21:03
DocScrutinizer05Vajb: then you're the right person to ask if you consider my instructions appropriate then21:04
DocScrutinizer05I always feel it a tricky task to explain technically correct procedure to laymen21:09
DocScrutinizer05they come up with interpretations and ideas I never had thought of21:10
Vajbwell basically ur instructions were so accurate that even a monkey would have get the job done :D21:11
Vajbwell that is if monkey understood speech tho21:12
DocScrutinizer05:-)21:12
DocScrutinizer05thanks21:12
Vajbbut nowadays problems is ill fitting tips21:12
DocScrutinizer05yep21:12
Vajblike we have ttip15 in use mostly21:13
DocScrutinizer05particularly phillips ws spax, though no spax in size similar to PH00 I guess21:13
Vajband sometimes they fit snuggly and sometimes not at all or they r loose21:13
DocScrutinizer05err s/spax/pozidrive/21:13
Vajbwell to be honest i don't use machine screws that much, but screws for structural timber21:14
DocScrutinizer05or is there PZ00 ?21:14
Vajbwell phillips was shit anyways :)21:14
DocScrutinizer05phillips are shit21:14
Vajbpozidrive was step to better, but real deal breaker is ttip torx21:14
Vajbif u have quality tip and screw...21:15
DocScrutinizer05never even heard of ttip torx, is that torx+ ?21:16
Vajboh it says ttip right on the tip21:16
DocScrutinizer05never found a torx+ driver either21:16
Vajbit is torx head with a small hole in the middle21:17
DocScrutinizer05I'm not even sure there's a difference between torx and torx+21:17
DocScrutinizer05EEEEW those21:17
Vajbdon't mix it with those which need hollow tip21:17
DocScrutinizer05err, I prolly just did21:18
DocScrutinizer05just found TORX-TR21:19
DocScrutinizer05TR==tamper resistant21:19
Vajbselfdrillingscrew.co.uk/ttap.htm21:20
DocScrutinizer05oooh! interesting21:20
Vajbsorry, but official brand was ttap not torx at all. Guess i don't know the names of pieces im dealing with daily basis21:21
Vajbgonna check at monday if the tip says ttip or ttap...21:21
DocScrutinizer05hehe, not unusual21:22
Vajbbut those r pretty good if they fit snuggly to each other21:22
DocScrutinizer05anyway nice improved plain TORX design, easier insertion but seems to be compatible to plain TX drivers21:22
Vajbyes it is, but result is very wobbly and u need two hands for the starters usually21:23
DocScrutinizer05>>Authentic TTAP® combined with TORX® and TORX PLUS® Drive Systems<<21:23
Vajbwhile with ttap u just need the machine holding hand21:23
DocScrutinizer05so what the heck *is* TORX PLUS?21:23
Vajbit seems to have different shape of head21:24
Vajbjust googled it21:25
*** Pali has joined #maemo21:25
Vajbif u thing of torx as sharp ridges on circle. Torx plus is dull ridges on circle21:25
DocScrutinizer05eew. iirc the screws in N900 are TX+. not TX21:27
*** L29Ah has quit IRC21:27
*** cyphase has quit IRC21:28
DocScrutinizer05daqmn, there's even TORX PLUS MAXX and that looks like Bristol rather than TORX21:35
*** Vajb has quit IRC21:36
DocScrutinizer05http://wstaw.org/m/2017/01/13/plasma-desktopf17764.png  vs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_wrench21:36
*** Vajb has joined #maemo21:38
Vajbgot disconnected while i looked at the screws, so basically got screwed by screws21:39
Vajbeh, anyways they look plain torx to me 2pcs and 4 regular phillips21:39
*** cyphase has joined #maemo21:41
DocScrutinizer05http://wstaw.org/m/2017/01/13/plasma-desktopb17764.png21:44
DocScrutinizer05actually I never faced problems using T6 driver for them21:44
DocScrutinizer05despite they clearly say TORX+ 621:45
Vajbhmm it sure does21:48
Vajbt1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTtn1-NFS8Y4_VRXHmHRtMk5XNwK5-sZWSTppMTKQwgQ1HJJ0KKI9FIiw21:49
Vajbtho it doesn't look like that when looked at bad light in hotel ;)21:49
*** N-Mi_ has quit IRC21:57
*** Kabouik has quit IRC21:59
DocScrutinizer05watch out to never try mount the phillips screws to the positions on kbd frame where the T6 should go, or they will come out on the outer surface!22:16
DocScrutinizer05seen several devices with nasty 'warts'22:17
Vajboh they r that much longer?22:19
Vajbi have those service manuals and i actually paged them through, but never actually open any n90022:20
Vajbbut it seems that sooner or later i have to take thisone a part because of mechanical wear22:21
DocScrutinizer05yes, just so much longer you get a wart on surface22:21
Vajbbuttons asdklzx and space have nearly all color gone22:21
Vajbseems i have fingers like abrasive paper22:22
DocScrutinizer05to swap keymat, you only need to open the two T6 and remove kbd frame22:22
Vajboh?22:22
DocScrutinizer05the paint on keymat is pathetic22:22
Vajbno need to separate screen and body22:23
DocScrutinizer05no :-)22:23
Vajbcool22:23
DocScrutinizer05it's a bit fumbly but feasible22:23
Vajbi might just swap mats with that selfrebooting version22:23
DocScrutinizer05hm?22:23
DocScrutinizer05ooh your other device?22:24
DocScrutinizer05yes, sure22:24
Vajbi have three n900. My firstone is that constantly rebooting one22:25
Vajbthen this in use is my second which is stablest nokia i ever had!22:25
DocScrutinizer05bootloop not fixable by reflash?22:25
Vajband then i have third in "like a new" condition which came with original packaging!22:26
DocScrutinizer05wow, rare finding nowadays22:26
Vajbno bootloop. It works but reboots occasionally22:26
DocScrutinizer05ouch22:26
DocScrutinizer05did you check the dsme error counters?22:27
Vajbi have thumb there, but it was like that even with cssu stable22:27
Vajbdid22:27
Vajbalso sent syslog to pali, but there wasn't much to tell what is wrong22:27
Vajbhe suspected hw wear22:27
DocScrutinizer05nothing in mtdoops and dsme logs and syslog?22:27
Vajbprolly some overclocking or such22:28
Vajbi recall seeing many camera-ui restarts atleast22:28
Vajbbut it's been awhile i tried dicking in to it22:28
DocScrutinizer05sure, the culprit may be whatever, but usually you have a clearly identifiable reboot *reason* whatever triggered that reason22:29
Vajbhmm probably digging...22:29
DocScrutinizer05does frequent camera-ui / camdriver restarts cause reboot?22:30
DocScrutinizer05not sure22:30
Vajbi think they do22:30
Vajbremoving camera-ui didn't fix it :D22:30
Vajbi think that was when i moved to thumb22:30
Vajbcoz i had to reflash coz of bootloop22:31
Vajbi've been lazy with it to be honest22:31
Vajbfor several months i've planned to put identical system on it and test there all new apps or programs before putting them in my daily device22:32
DocScrutinizer05FFS. my Iron900 sat on charger but acted_dead22:33
Vajbhell i might just as well try notorious apt-get upgrade with devel repo enabled ;)22:33
* DocScrutinizer05 was silly enough to not properly restart it when it went down with batlow the very moment it got plugged to charger22:33
Vajboh?22:34
Vajbif i need to calibrate battery i usually wait till i see "charge battery" notify and then plug the charger before it shuts down. Is this wrong?22:35

DocScrutinizer05a two days ago I forgot to hook it up to charger when I came home. then I heard the notoriouls BILIBIBboing announcing bat low, I picked it up and plugged it to charger, but very same moment it went down with the final BILIBIB_BLIPBLIPboingBLIBBLIB22:36
Vajboh noes i _had_ forgotten that notify sound....22:37
DocScrutinizer05AAAAWWWFUL22:37
Vajbone of the first things to disable22:38
DocScrutinizer05hahahaha22:38
DocScrutinizer05yeah I should replace it by something less disgusting22:38
DocScrutinizer05too lazy though22:38
DocScrutinizer05ugh, now a 4 concurrent rsync processes hog my PC and N900 ;-P22:39
Vajbi disabled it completely22:39
DocScrutinizer05http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/tools#backup22:40
Vajbwell, time to get some sleep bbl22:40
DocScrutinizer05>>I probably could handle better the rare case where I'm away for >24h, but it doesn't create too much trouble, just a bit of useless wlan traffic<< yeah HAHAHA22:41
DocScrutinizer05Vajb: o/22:41
Vajbhehe did u just bit ur own leg there ;)22:41
Vajb\o22:41
DocScrutinizer05yep, but it already finished, not much to rsync since device was off for a day or two22:43
DocScrutinizer05so yeah, camera-ui might reboot22:46
DocScrutinizer05IroN900:~# grep -R camera-ui /etc22:46

DocScrutinizer05                                   (on process exit, restart max N times,22:46
DocScrutinizer05                                    then do SW reset)22:46
DocScrutinizer05sucks big time, since aiui the true culprit is inside DSP code or pther blob22:48
DocScrutinizer05culprit for camera-ui segfaults/restarts22:48
