zerocoolheys guys was wandering if anybody knows if you can convert wpa hex key to txt01:11
Wild_Doogydo you have the hex?01:18
*** C-S-B has joined #maemo01:18
Wild_Doogytake a look at this:01:19
SpeedEvilIt's simply ascii01:19
Wild_Doogyhttp://home2.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/01:19

DocScrutinizeryou'll need to insert the "\x" by yourself, as I discarded my sed based cmdline to do that for long "raw" hex strings01:23
zerocoolHex key -- 64886a41acc234442faafa6419d0ef2267eeacddaf9ed5b1cc65f2ccf7a8939701:23

DocScrutinizerso you think we're going to insert the \x for you? no way01:24
Wild_Doogylook at the webpage I sent, it has a decoder01:24
Wild_Doogyhttp://home2.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/01:24
Wild_Doogythe text is not readable I assure you01:24

Wild_Doogyexactly, there is your text01:26
DocScrutinizerlol01:27
amiconnConverting the wpa hex key back to ascii is not possible01:28
amiconnThe hex key is derived from the ssid and the passphrase using PBKDF2() , which is a one-way function01:29
zerocoolwell thats a nightmare01:29

mecekwtm, it's linux09:58
mecedebian based09:58
mecein practice, maemo 609:58
kwtmReally?  Wow, and here I thought there was no hope for a new Linux phone.  Is it a phone and computer, like the n900?  I remember that there was something that prevented it from being my next thing to buy when the n900 broke down.  Sorry, I'm being lazy, I should wikipedia it.09:59
mecekwtm, no keyboard10:00
*** lizardo has joined #maemo10:00
mecekwtm, it also has aegis, so some limitations on what you can do with the original software. You can flash custom kernels tho. Otherwise, it's full linux stack. Busybox like maemo 5.10:01

*** Evanescence has quit IRC10:01
kwtmmece: Thanks.  Will look into this.  So far will stick to my plan of getting a backup N900 (less work to set up new system, and I see that Nokia is dumping it as a dead end)10:02
psycho_oreosno removeable battery, no expansion slot, microSIM supported (?)10:02
kwtmOf course, Nokia itself is probably the living embodiment of a dead end. :P10:02
kwtmpsycho_oreos: Are you serious, I have to carve up my SIM to get it to work, and I can't even take out a piece of memory (microSD)?10:03
mecekwtm, who cares, it's not as if maemo5 was going anywhere either.10:03
mecekwtm, yeah microsim10:03
psycho_oreoskwtm, apparently its going to have to be cut up10:03
kwtmmece: True, more or less, except I already put work into getting my N900 to work the way I want, so I might as well get more for it. :P10:03
*** Wikier has joined #maemo10:04
kwtmI guess smartphone users of the world enjoy buying new apps for their phone and there's not really that big a market for people who like to have their desktop apps ported to their phone.10:04
*** jpe has joined #maemo10:04
mecekwtm, it has a lot of downsides compared to n900, but there are a couple of pretty big upsides. Or, one in particular. 1Gb ram. Damn that is something you feel10:04
psycho_oreoskwtm, and yes no expandable storage, that's Flop's ultimatum in screwing up N9/meego harmattan as much as he can along with jacked up prices and only to be sold in certan countries10:04
mecealso the ui is rather sweet.10:05
psycho_oreoss/certan/certain/10:05
infobotpsycho_oreos meant: kwtm, and yes no expandable storage, that's Flop's ultimatum in screwing up N9/meego harmattan as much as he can along with jacked up prices and only to be sold in certain countries10:05
mecekwtm, unfortunately it's much more of a smartphone than a computer.10:05
kwtmWell, I've seen the N900 UI.  I don't trust Nokia any more with having sweet UI's.10:05
kwtmWho the **** decided that the "battery charging" status icon would be an animated icon that, 25% of the time, would look exactly like a phone running really low on batteries? :P10:06
fralsquote from Hutch (3) "Nokia N9 makes Apple look like Samsung" <- :D10:06
meceLOL10:06
*** booiiing has joined #maemo10:06
mecekwtm, well the N9 is a very very different beast on the ui side. Very.10:07
mecekwtm, that problem you mentioned is still there and still annoying tho.10:07
kwtmmece: Perhaps you may be right.  But, ... oh well.10:07
fralsthe charging indicator starts from half batter doesnt it?10:07
fralskwtm: you should look at the N9 UI before dismissing it tbh... http://swipe.nokia.com10:08
mecefrals, hmm does it? I think it goes from bottom with N950 beta210:08
fralsbut best is to try it in person, videos/images doesnt make it justice10:08
*** dneary_ has joined #maemo10:08
mecefrals, it could change color. that would be nice.10:08
fralsmece: ok, im running different fw and its starting from half10:08
fralsor maybe its because im actually at half abtter now...10:09
mecekwtm, yeah try it if you like. Besides its faults, It's the only proper linux phone on the market, and it is absolutely awesome as a smartphone.10:09
mecefrals, LOL10:09
kwtmI'd like to get my hands on the guy who decided that, tapping on a friend's face means, not that you phone that friend, but that you have to select from phoning his cell / home / sending SMS to his work / bla bla, and then once you phone, you have to tap a button to say, "Yes, please bring up the Special Advanced Screen so I can have a dialpad, since it's SO RARE to actually use a dialpad when phoning..." (followed by having to close10:09
kwtmthat Dialpad screen before you can even hang up ...)10:09
mecekwtm, I'd hate to have the phone call when I click on someones face. I'd like to give "that guy" a hug.10:10
kwtmmece: Yeah, unfortunately, unless I get to take a vacation in one of a select number of countries, I'll never get to try the phone. :P10:10
mecekwtm, ah, bummer.10:10
* amiconn would *possibly* buy an N950 if those were available for sale.10:10
kwtmThat List of Countries Where N9 Is Not Available?  They just went through a list of "Let's see, which countries did kwtm visit in the past few years ... ?"10:11
amiconnSome advantages and some disadvantages compared to N900. I certainly won't buy an N9 - severe step back imo10:11
meceamiconn, As a hacker device it's definitely a step back. the lack of keyboard is a big issue there.10:12
kwtmAnyone here actually have a N9?  If yes, from where did you get it?10:12
kwtmmece: Yeah, I'm trying to imagine vim on a keyboardless phone. :P10:12
*** eijk has joined #maemo10:13
amiconnYeah, lack of hw keyboard is the show stopper for me10:13
mecekwtm, frals works for Nokia and has one.10:13
mecefrals, you still work for nokia, right?10:13
*** M4rtinK has joined #maemo10:13
kwtmalthough that's probably the best editor to have, already, out of all the ones.  I sometimes use the onscreen keyboard on the N900 with vim and have to type   ggyyGP  or something like that. :P10:14
meceheh10:14
meceI use nano and khteditor10:15
kwtmmece: When you say N9 is only proper linux phone, you mean besides N900?  Or is the N900 disqualified in your mind?10:15
Jartzad'oh10:15
mecekwtm, besides N900 of course. N900 is the linuxest phone :)10:15
JartzaI found out that I still have the warranty on my N90010:15
kwtmmece: Vim is not for everyone.  I'm glad I learned it, but it's a huge learning curve.  nano's useful, but a lot of Ctrl-<key> i think, and no scripting, right?10:16
mecekwtm, N900 is still the best hacker device by far, and I love it!10:16
Jartzathe usb plug came out, known problem of course10:16
Jartzaand the Nokia Service offered me E7 for a replacement :P10:16
kwtmJartza: Are they still supporting that?  Oh, E7. :P10:16
meceJartza, that's terrible. but you might sell the E7 and buy N900 from somewhere else10:16
JartzaI didn't agree10:17
meceJartza, what did they say?10:17
kwtm"USB plug came out?  Sorry we don't have a replacement model --how about a year's supply of pink pony stickers for your Nokia Dumfone?"10:17
JartzaI told them I want my money back but they told me it's not possible :)10:17
Jartzabut the fight is not over yet10:17
meceJartza, they did not want to try fix it?10:17
Jartzanope10:17
mecehm10:18
Jartzathey didn't even open it10:18
kwtmMoonTiger is selling me his extra N900.10:18
mecedid you break  off a bit of the circuit board or did the port come out alone?10:18
Jartzathey just looked that "oh yeah, the plug is missing" and started to offer me E710:18
Jartzamece: just the port10:18
kwtmJartza: Yeah, I'm treating my N900 as an orphaned device now.  Planning out how to use it if the keyboard fails, the USB fails (wifi + external batt charger) etc.10:18
meceJartza, you're a finn?10:19
JartzaI've been using the phone still, for 3 months, after the plug came out :)10:19
Jartzabecause I have an external charger10:19
meceJartza, cool :)10:19
Jartzamece: yes10:19
Jartza....and of course, 2 batteries10:19
*** tanty has joined #maemo10:19
kwtmJartza: Good move.  Yeah, that lack of removable battery thing on the iPhone etc. doesn't work for me.  Doesn't make sense.10:19
meceJartza, radiotrimmeri in Turku fixed my n900's usb port in 3 hours. Perhaps you could try to take it to them, or some other Nokia service place that is not actually Nokia.10:20
meceJartza, or at least give them a call.10:20
Jartzamece: hmm. thanks for the tip.10:20
JartzaI'm actually going to turku next week10:20
mece:)10:20
Jartzaalthough it's only 100km from here to Turku, worth driving anyway if the device can be fixed10:21
meceok well Radiotrimmer is here: http://www.radiotrimmeri.fi/index.phtml10:22
meceJartza, give them a call and explain the situation. They fixed mine on warranty, so I guess they could fix your too.10:22
mecethat was 18 months ago tho.10:23

woldrichIt's possible to charge a n900 with the help of another n900 and usbcable surely?12:23
chem|stdoubt it12:24
woldrichwhy not?12:24
chem|styou cannot charge a battery with another battery without tricks, at least not in a useful way12:25
woldrichI thought it would just see it as another computer12:26
SpeedEvilYou can charge it, yes, if you limit the charge rate on the other n900 to 100mA12:26
woldrichI'm talking about two n900's, usb cable, in the woods12:27
SpeedEvilIt will do this on the other n900 side, if you just enable 'boost' - and don't do anything to enable USB host12:27
*** m4yer has left #maemo12:28
DocScrutinizerplus charging @100mA rate is rather questionable an exercise - possibly it will rather discharge than charge12:30
SpeedEvilOnly if the other n900 is used12:30
SpeedEvilBetter way is to pop the battery12:30
DocScrutinizerwoldrich: bottom line: it's possible (to some extent) but useless12:31
jieroIs there a way to improve N900's talk time, I got only 4 hours talk time from Full to switch off via Skype.12:32
*** zap_ has joined #maemo12:32
DocScrutinizerthis sounds about max you could possibly get12:33
DocScrutinizermaybe 5..6h were possible when carefully tuning all parameters to minimize power consumption - this is a tedious job though, and not particularly simple12:34
DocScrutinizer#1: make sure your data connection doesn't use more power than needed (10/100mW and PSM for WLAN, 2G vs 3G for GPRS dta connection, best was to use USB networking probably)12:36
DocScrutinizer#2: make sure your screen is dim or off during call12:37
DocScrutinizer#3: don't use video!!12:37
*** wmarone has quit IRC12:37
DocScrutinizer#4: tweak system to adapt CPU clock etc - only for real experts (who won't touch that anyway as they know about it being useless effort/result ratio)12:38
SpeedEvilAnd ensure you're in a good signal spot.12:38
*** murrayc_ has joined #maemo12:38

DocScrutinizerso s/good signal spot/good signal QUALITY (not strength) spot/12:42
fluxhm, wouldn't strength be indicative of the rx power used by the device?12:43
fluxwell, maybe not, infact12:43
fluxbut being close to the station should help that, I assume wifi has adaptive rx power like bluetooth12:44
*** jonwil has joined #maemo12:44
fluxand it's tx of course, not rx :)12:44
merlin1991hm there was this application that showed wich networks are on wich channel, some other info and also had a graph over time, I gorgot the name though12:44
DocScrutinizeradaptive rx power? s/rx/tx/ I guess, and no, WLAN doesn't have that12:44
fluxhm, on my workstation iwconfig says 'Tx-Power=15 dBm'12:45
fluxalso my n900 says tx-power 20 dBm12:45
fluxshould try to move around to see if it changes12:45
DocScrutinizerso what?12:45
DocScrutinizerit won't chage12:45
fluxwell, can one adjust it?12:46
DocScrutinizerthere's no way it could know when and how to change12:46
fluxat least there is that one low-power mode for it12:46
*** kimitake_idle is now known as kimitake12:46

DocScrutinizeryes, see N900 WLAN settings advanced 10/100mW TX power12:46
*** merlin1991 has joined #maemo12:47
DocScrutinizeron GSM the base station requests a power-factor to make the mobile equipment TX change from some few mW up to possibly 2W. Anyway that's the base station that decides how good is signal strength of signal sent by mobile, and requests and controls that accordingly. There's no such concept in 802.1112:49
DocScrutinizerthe assumption you need a strong TX when you got a poor RX signal is simply wrong12:50

DocScrutinizeranyway iwconfig -> " Power Management:on          Link Quality=78/100  Signal level:-44 dBm  Noise level=-92 dBm " is the most interesting info you can get13:03
*** r0gueaaaa has joined #maemo13:03
DocScrutinizerof course wifi-eye will show relative signal strength of the AP you're interested in vs "noise" by other APs13:04
