| kerio | aww, the "superbattery" calibrated to 1411 | 07:09 |
| kerio | vi____: you liar | 07:09 |

| chx | hi. i posted my question here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37154781#post37154781 -- basically i would like to hook an audio modem to the n900. is that ... possible? | 08:10 |
| ds3 | to do what? | 08:11 |
| chx | so that i can send a command to the n900 to open the building door via the existing phone system :) | 08:16 |
| ds3 | so you really are looking for way to send audio progammatically over a voice call? | 08:17 |
| chx | i want to make a voice call | 08:19 |
| chx | a very short one, actually. | 08:19 |
| chx | just pick up the phone, press the button six, over. | 08:20 |
| ds3 | think that is just software | 08:20 |
| chx | well, you need to solve the "pick up the phone" problem somehow | 08:20 |
| chx | playing the six, sure that's simple | 08:20 |
| chx | i mean, http://jetcityorange.com/dtmf/DTMF-6.mp3 play this, done | 08:21 |
| ds3 | isn't that a bunch of dbus commands? | 08:21 |
| chx | what...? | 08:26 |
| chx | how do you plan to phsyically connect to an RJ11 connector? | 08:27 |
| kerio | don't you have an internet connection at home? | 08:27 |
| chx | I failed at communicating through what I wanted to do | 08:28 |
| chx | Yes, I have an Internet connection | 08:28 |
| chx | I want to use it to command a device (perhaps the n900 because that's the most open device with wifi i own) to open a door. The door is remote controlled via a traditional phone. | 08:29 |
| kerio | and there's no other way to control the door? | 08:29 |
| chx | nope | 08:32 |
| chx | this is a 20 floor highrise | 08:32 |
| kerio | does the door actually have its own phone line? | 08:34 |
| *** ZogG_laptop has joined #maemo | 08:35 | |
| *** dos11 has joined #maemo | 08:36 | |
| chx | it's hooked into the building pbx | 08:36 |
| chx | when you ring someone from outside you dial via a normal phone system | 08:37 |
| chx | theoretically i could forward the door buzzer to my cellphone -- the only reason I cant do that is that i cancelled my landline cos it was redundant and expensive | 08:37 |
| kerio | oh, so you have to call from outside? | 08:37 |
| kerio | isn't that also expensive? | 08:37 |
| chx | it uses the house pbx, so it's free | 08:38 |
| chx | anyways, i might give this up, get a raspberry pi, a powered usb hub, plug in a wifi stick, i have plenty, buy a usb modem for a few pennies and be done | 08:39 |
| kerio | that's what i was going to suggest, yeah | 08:40 |
| kerio | or just a computer that you leave turned on | 08:40 |
| chx | there's absolutely no space for that | 08:40 |
| kerio | you have no computers at home? :o | 08:41 |
| chx | i have four, and so what? | 08:41 |
| chx | they are nowhere near the phone jack | 08:41 |

| kerio | kgu: it should be made more obvious, but those catalogues are not meant to be touched by users | 11:43 |
| kerio | disable it and add a new one | 11:43 |
| kgu | so I will have to disable it and a new one for the mirrors? | 11:43 |
| kerio | but it won't work properly in HAM | 11:43 |
| kerio | for upgrades, at least | 11:43 |
| kgu | thx :) | 11:44 |
| kerio | unless you use an apt-mirror one | 11:44 |
| jacekowski | i've got apt-mirror repo | 11:44 |
| kerio | the solution is not to use apt-mirror, the solution is to stop using HAM | 11:45 |
| kgu | really? Thought that you had to use HAM, especially for upgrades.. | 11:47 |
| kerio | kgu: if you're asking if you can use apt-get to do system upgrades, you can't use apt-get to do system upgrades | 11:48 |
| kgu | ok, but otherwise you recommend using apt-get for program installations? | 11:48 |
| kerio | kgu: if you're asking if you can use apt-get to do program installations, you can't use apt-get to do program installations | 11:49 |
| kerio | but it should be safe | 11:49 |
| Hurrian | kerio, IIRC you can simply "apt-get install mp-fremantle-community-pr" | 12:01 |
| Hurrian | since that's 90% of what HAM does, minus the slowness | 12:01 |

| Estel_ | good new is that I'm testdriving pre-pre-pre-pre alpha version of N900 body replacemebnt, since few days | 12:27 |
| Estel_ | it does have any useful things on exterior side - basically, it looks like ugly piece of alu - but, inside, it got almost all parts that need to cooperate with motherboard | 12:27 |
| Estel_ | and motherboard isn't sparking on contact anymore =D | 12:28 |

| Estel_ | jonwil, and what you've tried to reverse-engineer, lately? | 13:50 |
| jonwil | some ICD stuff, some wifi stuff, some GPRS stuff, a whole bunch of connectivity UI bits | 13:51 |
| * Estel_ nods | 13:53 | |
| Estel_ | where exactly you've meet a wall? | 13:53 |
| Estel_ | lack of participation from others, probably? | 13:53 |
| jonwil | Just cant seem to get anywhere because of undocumented libraries, undocumented APIs, unknown data structures and the fact that ARM ASM is a LOT harder to reverse engineer than x86 | 13:54 |
| jonwil | and yes, lack of interest from other people too | 13:55 |
| Estel_ | I remember your mails to mailing list | 13:56 |
| Estel_ | would love to help if not for almost complete lack of coding skills, let alone RE | 13:57 |
| SpeedEvil | jonwil: awesome efforts. | 13:57 |
| Estel_ | Pali, ping | 13:58 |
| Pali | Estel_, pong | 13:58 |
| Estel_ | I've encountered strange thing when it comes to usb mode used alongside bme replacement bits | 13:58 |
| SpeedEvil | jonwil: it seems almost as if that was one of the express design aims | 13:58 |
| Estel_ | everytime i end working with mass storage tings connected to N900 and use "periferial mode with charging button"... | 13:58 |
| Estel_ | it end up as "peripherial mode with *boost*" | 13:59 |
| Estel_ | seriously, that is what banner says, and I confirmed it in reality | 13:59 |
| *** etrunko has joined #maemo | 13:59 | |
| Estel_ | it's peripherial mode, but boost still active, and devices connected are still light up | 13:59 |
| Estel_ | no idea why it keeps booston, though, nothing suspicious in syslog, I suspect userland bit bug | 14:00 |
| Pali | Estel_, look at /sys/class/power_supply_bq241*/mode | 14:00 |
| Pali | if it has really boost mode | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | as, after all, it even *announce* peripherial mode with boost, via banner | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | yes | 14:00 |
| Pali | or only MCE LED pattern was not deactivated | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | it has, and as said, I checked it hardware-wise | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | it's still providing real boost | 14:00 |
| Pali | Estel_, which version of usbmode do you use? | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | i.e. up to 200 mA 5V | 14:00 |
| Estel_ | one related to kernel-power version from repos | 14:01 |
| Estel_ | i.e. last one that work with kp51r1 | 14:01 |
| Estel_ | I'm just getting into the loop again, so sorry, if I missed something important (searched a little, but never found reports of such behavior or fixlogs) | 14:02 |
| Estel_ | (fixes in changelos*) | 14:02 |
| Pali | Estel_ update to kp52 from TMO and usbmode to 1.0-3 | 14:02 |
| Pali | Estel_, here is last usbmode version: http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/usbmode/ | 14:04 |
| Pali | but you need kp52 for it | 14:04 |
| Estel_ | thanks a lot | 14:07 |
| Estel_ | will do | 14:07 |
| Estel_ | then, re-check bug existence, yep? | 14:07 |
| *** kolp has joined #maemo | 14:07 | |
| Estel_ | Pali, as I was able to catch you - any chances for including module I've requested (qf9700) in next KP version? I've send it via maemo-developers mailing list, including source code (afaik it just require compiling against kernel-power headers) | 14:09 |
| *** ivgalvez has quit IRC | 14:10 | |
| Estel_ | It would easy life of USB->ethernet dongle's users a lot, as every new davicom is using it, instead of old module (and, new one is free of most old davicom bugs) | 14:10 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Pali: I'm really curious why is it hosted on Matfyz :D | 14:10 |
| Estel_ | of course new and old module doesn't collide | 14:10 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | What is this boost? | 14:10 |
| kerio | how do i use more power? i'm at 475mA now | 14:19 |
| freemangordon | disable SR | 14:19 |
| kerio | with screen at full brightness, busy cpu, and wifi with no powersaving | 14:19 |
| kerio | freemangordon: ooh, nice one | 14:19 |
| kerio | how do i do that? | 14:19 |
| freemangordon | :P | 14:19 |
| freemangordon | echo 0 > /sys/power... | 14:20 |
| kerio | freemangordon: and then what? | 14:21 |
| kerio | sr_vdd*_autocomp? | 14:21 |
| freemangordon | yep | 14:21 |
| freemangordon | for 1 and 2 | 14:21 |
| kerio | heh, 8mA increase | 14:22 |
| *** trx has joined #maemo | 14:22 | |
| Pali | Estel_, I saw your mail, but I did not looked at it. Did you try to compile it against 2.6.28? | 14:22 |
| Pali | Aoyagi_joytop, so what do you think? :-) | 14:23 |
| *** pablocastellanos has quit IRC | 14:23 | |
| Estel_ | kerio, use flashlight ;) | 14:23 |
| Estel_ | and bluetooth discoverable | 14:23 |
| Estel_ | instead of busy cpu, start recording HD video via camera, with flashlight on | 14:24 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Pali: Huh? About what? The boost thing? | 14:24 |
| Estel_ | and gps program like modrana or marble enabled | 14:24 |
| kerio | right, the gps | 14:24 |
| Estel_ | more than 1A power usage easily achievable | 14:24 |
| Estel_ | Pali, as per my knowledge, it compiles without problems | 14:24 |
| Estel_ | but it's second-hand knowledge | 14:25 |
| Estel_ | also, android kids are using it hapilly for more than a year | 14:25 |
| Estel_ | afaik people compiled it sucessfuly even for more ancient kernels | 14:25 |
| Estel_ | like 2.4 | 14:25 |
| Estel_ | without much hassle. IIRC, 2.6.8 should be just matter of compiling against proper headers. Anyway, my mail isn't long, just check it in a second of free time, please | 14:26 |
| Pali | Aoyagi_joytop, boost mode (in bq2415x context) provide 200mA/5V from n900 for usb port | 14:26 |
| Pali | which is needed for usb host mdoe | 14:26 |
| Pali | *mode | 14:26 |
| Estel_ | it's probably as much as non-coding person can do to ease your work on including, i.e. sending code, etc. It's in process of getting into mainstream linux kernel, too | 14:27 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Right, thanks. | 14:27 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Now I just need to find out what USB host is, heh. | 14:27 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; I'd compare busyness when running fennec on stock vs ext4, start with same .mozilla/fennec dir. swap on uSD | 14:28 |
| Pali | Estel_, compiling some module externally against kernel power is one step and integrate it into deb package second (at deb package compile time) | 14:28 |
| Pali | Estel_, sorry but I do not have time for second | 14:28 |
| Pali | if you (or soembody) else can provide patch, I can look at it and include it | 14:28 |
| Estel_ | Pali, I see | 14:29 |
| Estel_ | not that I know what is needed to be done for integrating it into kernel power modules at deb creating time :P | 14:30 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; in general sqlite stuff seems to suffer alot on ext3/flash, so I would expect to see benefit even in Conversations | 14:30 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, hm? | 14:30 |
| Estel_ | busyness of I/O or cpu time? | 14:30 |
| Estel_ | re fennec? | 14:30 |
| ShadowJK | I/O | 14:30 |
| Pali | Aoyagi_joytop, usb has two mode: peripheral and host: In host mode you can connect usb device and in peripheral you act as usb device | 14:30 |
| ShadowJK | iostat | 14:30 |
| Estel_ | I see | 14:30 |
| *** WielkiTost has joined #maemo | 14:31 | |
| ShadowJK | I tried browsing with fennec, and had iostat display on another device (via ssh), and nogticed whenever fennec scrolling froze, often I/O was pegged at 100% | 14:31 |
| Estel_ | heh, conversation was always fast for me on ext4 and swap on microSD, but maybe iostat will show comparable differences | 14:31 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Pali: Just found a description of it, thank you. | 14:31 |
| ShadowJK | well, ext4 in general is faster too | 14:31 |
| Estel_ | good point, will try to do | 14:32 |
| Estel_ | disabling barriers may help, too | 14:32 |
| ShadowJK | how to compare ext4 vs ext4-stride-stripe-align, no clue | 14:32 |
| ShadowJK | try bonnie | 14:32 |
| ShadowJK | (bonnie++) | 14:32 |
| Estel_ | btw setting stride-stripe on mkfs time is enough, no need to use mount time stripe option? | 14:32 |
| Estel_ | and what it does? why it's stripe only in mounttime (noob mode) | 14:33 |
| Estel_ | fun fact - with journal_async_commit, partition seems to be less prone to fuck up and trigger fsck due to unexpected inconsistency | 14:33 |
| Estel_ | i.e. I feel that journal recovery is enough, more times. May be placebo, though | 14:34 |
| *** murrayc has quit IRC | 14:34 | |
| Estel_ | Aoyagi_joytop, also, get in mind that HEN is older way of achieving hostmode (although, more "manual", so still work on some specific times, where usb-mode fails to enumerate) | 14:35 |
| Estel_ | generally, usb-mode is more conveinent | 14:35 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | A lot, more, I'd think. | 14:35 |
| ShadowJK | I've only once had ext3 fuckup, and it got fucked up by running fsck | 14:35 |
| Estel_ | so use it everyday, and if you got problems with any particular device, try all steps manually, via hen or scripts itself | 14:35 |
| *** alehorst has quit IRC | 14:35 | |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, but if fsck triggers due to unexpected inconsistency, something is already fckd up. fsck. just fckd more (i.e. whole partition) | 14:36 |
| ShadowJK | Nokia stock setup never runs fsck | 14:36 |
| Estel_ | basically, if something is fishy, I just re-create partition and restore backup, due to inability to repair anything on flash | 14:36 |
| ShadowJK | or maybe they added that in 1.2 or 1.3? | 14:36 |
| *** CcxCZ_ has joined #maemo | 14:37 | |
| Estel_ | no idea, I'm doing it manually with -n (no changes to filesystem) option after unexpected reboots, if any | 14:37 |
| Estel_ | especially if device reboots during heavy operations, due to, for example, dying of low-power with bme disabled :P | 14:37 |
| *** zhxt has joined #maemo | 14:37 | |
| Estel_ | to see if anything is fishy | 14:37 |
| Estel_ | most of the times, recovering journal is enough | 14:38 |
| *** FlameReaper has joined #maemo | 14:38 | |
| Estel_ | if fsck report need for running it manually ("unexpected inconsistency"), I know that it will fckd my partition if I let it to | 14:38 |
| kerio | well, this battery can sustain 850mA of draw | 14:39 |
| *** phr3akDom has joined #maemo | 14:39 | |
| Estel_ | so either restore backup, or be in danger of running into some file screwed. No idea if important one or not | 14:39 |
| *** stardiviner has quit IRC | 14:39 | |
| Estel_ | so i preffer to restore backup | 14:39 |
| Estel_ | kerio, liIon can give many C of power | 14:39 |
| Estel_ | so probably no problem to draw 5A from it, for a while | 14:39 |
| Estel_ | what are you trying to achieve? | 14:39 |
| kerio | Estel_: yeah but this is a chinese liIon | 14:39 |
| kerio | :) | 14:39 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; I wouldn't generalize it like that | 14:40 |
| Estel_ | no matter, liion chemistry isn't racial | 14:40 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, batteries, or partitions? | 14:40 |
| kerio | Estel_: trying to calibrate this battery as fast as i can | 14:40 |
| Estel_ | kerio, but you will get lower results :P than you would get with normal heavy usage | 14:40 |
| ShadowJK | the high energy stuff like laptop and phone batteries have max recommended draw of 2C at best :) | 14:40 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, if batteries, sure, it was "mental shortcut" | 14:40 |
| *** stardiviner has joined #maemo | 14:40 | |
| Estel_ | LiFE can give more than 30C safely | 14:41 |
| kerio | Estel_: surely only the end of the calibration matters | 14:41 |
| Estel_ | kerio, nope, as there is no such things as absolute capacity | 14:41 |
| Estel_ | capacity is relative | 14:41 |
| Estel_ | if you measure it with 1A draw, that you never use in real life, you will get lower capacity results | 14:41 |
| Estel_ | than with using device normally until it calibrates itself | 14:42 |
| Estel_ | well, it won't hurt | 14:42 |
| Estel_ | just that you will see little less than it can really give | 14:42 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; there's more than chemistry involved in it :) Li-Ion comes from high energy 1C stuff to high power 60C stuff depending on the cell design.. A 60C li-ion in bl-5) size would be far lower capacity than 1200mAh though :) | 14:42 |
| kerio | huh, sending zeros over wifi stops nicocam | 14:42 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, sure | 14:42 |
| Estel_ | I just mean that he shouldn't expect it failing apart on 850 mA | 14:43 |
| Estel_ | even chinese one | 14:43 |
| kerio | Estel_: anyway, not just for calibration, i also want to stress-test this battery a bit | 14:43 |
| Estel_ | kerio, btw, relative capacity is why w% 1500 mAh scud run as dual-scud result in ~3100 mAh battery :P | 14:44 |
| *** CcxCZ_ has quit IRC | 14:44 | |
| Estel_ | (lower power draw from every cell due to halved between cells, = more relative capacity in each cell) | 14:44 |
| kerio | Estel_: i suppose i'll run yet another calibration overnight at a constant ~200mA draw | 14:45 |
| *** Martix_ has quit IRC | 14:45 | |
| kerio | seems to be the most consistent | 14:45 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, speaking of that, do we know design capabilities of nokia's bl-5j? | 14:45 |
| Estel_ | i.e. "how many C"? | 14:45 |
| kerio | the highest load i've got was 950mA, now | 14:45 |
| *** bef0rd_ has quit IRC | 14:45 | |
| ShadowJK | I should test someday, say, 2A draw down to 25% followed by 100mA to empty, compared to 100mA start to finish | 14:46 |
| Estel_ | constant draw is also resulting in less capacity measured than variable one due to normal N900 usage :P | 14:46 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; charging 0.7C is all I remember | 14:46 |
| Estel_ | not that it matters much, but, best calibration is one regular, not hasted or slowed down | 14:46 |
| * ShadowJK has managed 1.3A draw, without using usb boost | 14:46 | |
| ShadowJK | but now I have too good 3g signal to repeat that | 14:47 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, yea. BTW, I'm using 1250 mA charging (for dual scud) since I announced tesdriving it more than half year ago... or more, don't remember | 14:47 |
| Estel_ | no ill effects | 14:47 |
| * ShadowJK is doing it to single batt | 14:47 | |
| Estel_ | using it on different devices, also different revisions (2101, and this 2nd less popular) | 14:47 |
| Estel_ | :P | 14:47 |
| Estel_ | poor battery | 14:47 |
| Estel_ | no ill effects, I suppose, too? | 14:47 |
| ShadowJK | Well it kinda already was past its best perf :) | 14:48 |
| *** InvalidHandle has joined #maemo | 14:48 | |
| ShadowJK | though still better than original bl-5j out of box | 14:48 |
| Estel_ | well, my wanna-be 2A 5V portable charger seems to suffer a little, as it started to give no more than 950 mA. I was forced to switch into regular N900 charger back again | 14:48 |
| Estel_ | which gives 1250 mA without overheating or complaining | 14:48 |
| ShadowJK | My homebuilt portable charger doesn't do 1250 either | 14:49 |
| *** _InvalidHandle_ has quit IRC | 14:49 | |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Or exploding? | 14:49 |
| ShadowJK | on paper it should do 5A | 14:49 |
| Estel_ | I wonder about N900 charger real limits for stable work, for sure are higher than 1250 mA | 14:49 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, huh | 14:49 |
| Estel_ | what went wrong? | 14:49 |
| ShadowJK | but the usb cable I cut up was too cheap, drops too much voltage :P | 14:50 |
| Estel_ | lol? would quite overheat | 14:50 |
| Estel_ | lol? would quite overheat | 14:50 |
| Estel_ | or melt | 14:50 |
| Estel_ | from 5A -> 1000 mA loss. No? | 14:51 |
| Estel_ | Aoyagi_joytop, N900 charger is designed for 1250 mA, so it just lives up to expectations | 14:51 |
| ShadowJK | more like 5V -> 4.6V (so .4V * 1A = 0.4W loss?) | 14:51 |
| Estel_ | I plan to add 2 usb ports to it | 14:51 |
| *** tanty has quit IRC | 14:52 | |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, but 0.4W seems a lotta hell capable of melting such cable | 14:52 |
| Estel_ | or I'm wrong? | 14:52 |
| *** kolp has quit IRC | 14:52 | |
| ShadowJK | well we dont know if the other bits and pieces besides the chip is designed for 1250, | 14:52 |
| *** alehorst has joined #maemo | 14:53 | |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; it's equivalent to 80mA at 5V, spread across a cable? | 14:53 |
| Estel_ | no parts jumping into saturation and desoldering themselves, so it should be OK | 14:53 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, I expected such voltage drop due to one part where contact is low (between internal cable wires) | 14:54 |
| *** konelix has joined #maemo | 14:54 | |
| Estel_ | after all, if it isn't half-broken, what would result in such voltage drop? it's made of copper, isn't it? | 14:54 |
| Aoyagi_joytop | Uh. What parts of maemo.org are currently -not- working? | 14:55 |
| Estel_ | I mean that I can't imagine how relatively short cable without connection problems, i.e. almost-torn out continuity inside, could result in such voltage drop | 14:55 |
| Estel_ | made of iron? :P | 14:55 |
| teotwaki | or water | 14:56 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; iirc there were 3 strands of copper in it. And I don't mean the thick strands of ethernet | 14:56 |
| jonwil | well wiki.maemo.org is not working for me | 14:56 |
| Estel_ | :P | 14:56 |
| Estel_ | wiki is coming alive and dying all the time | 14:56 |
| jonwil | I think all parts of maemo.org are going up and down right now | 14:56 |

| jaska | heh | 15:02 |
| Estel_ | when I entered it and said "good morning" | 15:02 |
| Estel_ | having N900 in hand | 15:02 |
| Estel_ | ( was checking something on platform, stopped it when train arrived, and entered with N900 in hand) | 15:02 |
| Estel_ | they were really surprised, when I, instead of taking tickets, started to take my coat off, putting baggage on shelf etc | 15:03 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; check a few tickets, then say "must go check something", take ticket with you and go sit in another car. free train rides forever | 15:03 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, yea | 15:03 |

| Estel_ | as soon as I get hands on some digital camera, beside one inside my N900 (thus inside case) | 15:08 |
| Estel_ | belive it or not, I'm using N900 as my main camera for few years | 15:09 |
| Estel_ | main and only, to be precise | 15:09 |
| Estel_ | just because fact that when I see something interesting, I never have camera with me | 15:09 |
| Estel_ | but always have N900 | 15:09 |
| Estel_ | and raw photos are quite good quality | 15:09 |
| Estel_ | it resulted in me not using my regular digital camera for long time, then giving it to someone | 15:10 |
| Estel_ | BTW | 15:10 |
| xes | I think you are the only one who tried to build something like that case...this means a great love for this device | 15:10 |
| Estel_ | tripod mounting point is already there, as only one external element | 15:10 |
| jonwil | I prefer my Canon point & shoot (and its 12x optical zoom) to the tiny lens and sensor in the N900 | 15:10 |
| Estel_ | yea, for sure. I just hope that I'll be able to finish it before only me and pre-ordering people will want to use it :P | 15:10 |
| Estel_ | it ended up in being much more work than expected, as always | 15:11 |
| Estel_ | jonwil, understandable | 15:11 |
| *** InvalidHandle has joined #maemo | 15:11 | |
| jaska | full alu? howd you deal with antennas? | 15:11 |
| Estel_ | it's just that I never have such things with me when needing it, murphy law | 15:11 |
| jonwil | yeah | 15:11 |
| *** heroux has joined #maemo | 15:11 | |
| Estel_ | two concepts for antennas, testdriving one of them for wifi | 15:11 |
| jonwil | I use my N900 camera if I need to take photos and dont have my normal camera with me | 15:11 |
| Estel_ | 1. separated alu part of backcover acting as antenna booster itself, shaped accordingly | 15:12 |
| Estel_ | hopes for increasing signal power over vanilla N900 | 15:12 |
| Estel_ | 2. non-alu parts where antennas are, like in N950, struggling to keep vanilla signal not weakened | 15:13 |
| Estel_ | I preffer 1st option, as I have some experience in designing antennas | 15:13 |
| Estel_ | wifi seems to work ok, quite hard to determine if better in noisy enviromnent, but for sure no worse | 15:13 |
| Estel_ | no GSM antennas, yet | 15:14 |
| Estel_ | next step | 15:14 |
| Estel_ | when I finish all antennas, I'll start designing and test manufacturing outer case shape | 15:14 |
| Estel_ | with all reequired holes etc | 15:14 |
| Estel_ | and of course connector for hirose u.fl n board | 15:14 |
| Estel_ | connected to single standarized mini antenna out on case... Will love to connect it to some of my custom antennas :P | 15:15 |
| kerio | Estel_: just use an even number of mirrors to take your picture | 15:15 |
| Estel_ | I'm also tempted to use FMTX testpoints, to allow connecting external antenna to it, too | 15:15 |
| Estel_ | kerio, haha | 15:16 |
| * kerio is only slightly kidding | 15:16 | |
| Estel_ | well, kind of idea, but I'll, probably, just lend digital camera from someone | 15:16 |
| Estel_ | BTW I though, once, about crazy attachement for N900 | 15:17 |

| freemangordon | merlin1991: does your rmo mirror still give hash error? | 15:56 |
| kerio | how can it give a hash error? have you changed the keys? | 15:58 |
| FIQ | it gave a hash error for me too when I tried, actually | 15:59 |
| FIQ | though atm I don't really need the repos so cba to try again | 15:59 |
| merlin1991 | freemangordon: yep :/ | 15:59 |
| freemangordon | merlin1991: :( | 15:59 |
| merlin1991 | kerio: the release file is foobar | 15:59 |
| FIQ | (it went up yesterday though for a little, and I took that possibility to download picodrive :3) | 15:59 |
| freemangordon | do you know which repo works in HAM? | 15:59 |
| merlin1991 | all hashes are wrong | 15:59 |
| merlin1991 | freemangordon: http://extras-devel.merlin1991.at/ | 16:00 |
| merlin1991 | that one is the minimal one | 16:00 |
| FIQ | I don't know how apt works, but can't you just.. I don't know, disable hash checking, or re-do that file? | 16:00 |
| kerio | merlin1991: only because extras is the only sanctioned repo, and nobody uses it | 16:00 |
| freemangordon | well, there is a lady on the channel I am trying to help to set-up mirror repos, I am not sure I want her to enable extras-devel :) | 16:00 |
| kerio | technically if you install something from extras, and then enable extras-devel, you won't be able to upgrade it from extras-devel | 16:01 |
| ccxCZ | yay, worked | 16:01 |
| merlin1991 | freemangordon: I guess you're right :D | 16:01 |
| ccxCZ | now back up he old system before screwing up.. just dd | gzip the block devices? | 16:01 |
| kerio | freemangordon: extras devel is cool | 16:02 |
| kerio | ccxCZ: nope | 16:02 |
| freemangordon | well, lets try with http://maemo-archive.wedrop.it/repository.maemo.org/extras/ | 16:02 |
| kerio | ccxCZ: you MUST NOT directly read or write a mtd | 16:02 |
| kerio | ~2119 | 16:02 |
| infobot | The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119. | 16:02 |
| ccxCZ | what is the recommended procedure then? | 16:02 |
| FIQ | that one gave bogus bzip files for me @ freemangordon | 16:02 |
| *** calvaris has quit IRC | 16:02 | |
| kerio | ccxCZ: install backupmenu, reboot with open keyboard slider, follow UI | 16:03 |
| kerio | but be wary, backupmenu doesn't backup your kernel | 16:03 |
| FIQ | and thus, restoring to a backup with another kernel mess up the system | 16:03 |
| FIQ | which I found out the hard way | 16:04 |
| kerio | "mess up" | 16:04 |
| kerio | just flash the old kernel from a n900 | 16:04 |
| freemangordon | FIQ: what | 16:04 |
| freemangordon | ? | 16:04 |
| FIQ | freemangordon: ? | 16:04 |
| kerio | ccxCZ: there's (almost) nothing you can do via software that will permanently damage your n900 | 16:04 |
| freemangordon | <FIQ> that one gave bogus bzip files for me @ freemangordon | 16:04 |
| FIQ | freemangordon: ah, when I tried out the mirrors, one gave hash errors (merlin1991's), wedrop also gave hash errors, and the third one which name I've forgot gave bogus bzip files | 16:05 |
| FIQ | (trying to update with that repo just gave error "bzip returned with an error code (1)" | 16:05 |
| FIQ | ) | 16:05 |
| freemangordon | so all of them don;t work? | 16:05 |

| jonwil | I hope that's what you need | 17:21 |
| jonwil | My guess is that Nokia didn't publish the -dev package for that library because of security (i.e. you could use it to bypass the device lock) | 17:22 |
| jonwil | but in our case now we do have the info :) | 17:22 |
| Pali | you can use devlock-bin package for that | 17:22 |
| jonwil | yeah | 17:22 |
| Pali | it contains binary with S bit!!! | 17:22 |
| jonwil | anyhow, its documented | 17:22 |
| jonwil | another closed library has been given a dev package :) | 17:23 |
| Pali | jonwil, it is hard to RE that library? | 17:23 |

| *** florian has joined #maemo | 17:23 | |

| jonwil | and yes it would be harder to RE than it was to produce the dev stuff | 17:23 |

| *** hardaker has joined #maemo | 17:24 | |

| Pauly1210 | Hi, hows mapping on the n900. Is any of the community apps better than the old nokia maps for daily usage? | 18:07 |
| khm | yes. | 18:09 |
| jacekowski | not really | 18:09 |
| khm | I really like modrana | 18:09 |
| SpeedEvil | I suspect not | 18:09 |
| jacekowski | nokia maps has no competition | 18:09 |
| jacekowski | and it's offline | 18:09 |
| Sicelo | yup. | 18:09 |
| SpeedEvil | it does somewhat depend - openstreermap is good in some areas | 18:10 |
| khm | I can't even remember the last time I bothered starting nokia's maps program on the n900 | 18:10 |
| * Sicelo uses Nokia Maps + OM Voice Server | 18:10 | |
| khm | I use mappero and modrana heavily | 18:10 |
| Pauly1210 | yeah if it was like the maps on the symbian phones its just clunky | 18:11 |
| Pauly1210 | thanks guys | 18:11 |
| Pauly1210 | I'll check them out | 18:12 |
| kerio | Pauly1210: i quite like monav | 18:17 |
| kerio | incredibly light | 18:17 |
| kerio | can do *everything* offline, with free datasets | 18:18 |
| kerio | Sicelo: OM Voice? | 18:18 |
| Pauly1210 | kerio: cool its Qt | 18:19 |
| Sicelo | kerio, yes. to give a voice to nokia maps | 18:22 |
| kerio | Sicelo: does it add autofollow? | 18:23 |
| Sicelo | um, what's that? | 18:23 |
| kerio | does it do the equivalent to pushing forward in nokia maps when you pass an intersection? | 18:23 |
| Sicelo | re-route? no. | 18:24 |

| *** guampa has joined #maemo | 18:25 | |
| Sicelo | i have monav too, but i never downloaded the maps. | 18:25 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | who else got maemo.org 503 | 18:25 |
| Lava_Croft | yes | 18:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | since when | 18:26 |
| Lava_Croft | less than 2 days | 18:26 |
| Lava_Croft | i check about daily on your update post | 18:26 |
| Lava_Croft | havent checked yesterday iirc | 18:26 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yesterday everything been fine | 18:27 |
| Lava_Croft | let's hope its nothing serious | 18:27 |
| Lava_Croft | talk works | 18:27 |
| Lava_Croft | but i clearly have no idea where what part of *.maemo.org is located | 18:28 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | talk is disparate | 18:28 |
| Lava_Croft | as i figured | 18:28 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | wiki works too | 18:28 |
| jacekowski | sounds like overload or something | 18:28 |
| freemangordon | does it? | 18:28 |
| *** drussell has joined #maemo | 18:28 | |
| freemangordon | yes, it does | 18:29 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe somebody is moving repo to a new path | 18:29 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and took down maemo.org for that | 18:29 |
| jacekowski | 503 may mean that backend is down | 18:29 |
| freemangordon | but why MO is 503 then? | 18:29 |
| jacekowski | so frontend load balance/reverse proxy is running | 18:29 |
| freemangordon | aah, I see | 18:29 |
| jacekowski | but backend vm not so much | 18:30 |
| jacekowski | loads of possibilities | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there's no load balancing anymore | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | on new infra | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one VM for m.o | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one for wiki.m.o | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one for repo.m.o | 18:30 |
| freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: btw did you read #maemo-ssu logs from today? | 18:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | very partially | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | seen the guy from Nokia dropped by | 18:31 |
| freemangordon | the key has been found :) | 18:31 |
| freemangordon | yep | 18:31 |
| Lava_Croft | ! | 18:31 |
| Lava_Croft | no shit? | 18:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | hope you all were kind and reasonable to him | 18:31 |
| freemangordon | I think so. actually the guy was very polite and cooperative | 18:32 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no shit what? | 18:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure, why not? | 18:33 |
| freemangordon | just mentioning | 18:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | not everybody is like djszapi | 18:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ;-) | 18:33 |
| Lava_Croft | no shit key found | 18:33 |
| freemangordon | (whoever he is :D ) | 18:33 |
| freemangordon | Lava_Croft: read the logs | 18:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ooh, you never been in #harmattan | 18:33 |
| freemangordon | well, been there a couple of times, for a couple of minutes :D | 18:34 |
| freemangordon | but usually I pester arcean when I join there :D | 18:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | then it probably been djszapi who made you quit | 18:34 |
| *** pvanhoof has quit IRC | 18:34 | |

| DocScrutinizer05 | asking insane questions and bitching at us when he didn't get right answers | 18:35 |

| GeneralAntilles | The difference between Maemo and Harmattan: | 22:23 |
| GeneralAntilles | Both make simple tasks (decompressing an archive, searching for a URL in the browser history), but with Maemo those things can be worked around | 22:24 |

| *** konelix__ has quit IRC | 22:26 | |
| GeneralAntilles | kerio, er, make them difficult | 22:26 |
| Estel_ | kernel-power development thread proudly states - in opening post - that currently, latest version is kp50. Kernel-power "main" thread talks about kp 51. I'm using kp51r1, and I'm supposed to find kp52 "somewhere" | 22:26 |
| Estel_ | sorry for pestering, just wanted to highlight, that from perspective of someone who haven't read every single post of kp thread - unlike the old days - it's nearly impossible to find it | 22:27 |

| Estel_ | nice to hear | 22:30 |
| Estel_ | btw, in post you've submitted, same link is repeated 4 times in row, or is it just me? | 22:30 |
| Estel_ | well, when it comes to maemo infrastructure - unlike in real life - I'm pesimistic, so I can be only positively surprised | 22:31 |
| Estel_ | I start in position of not expecting anything on Maemo infra to work, at all, including this irc channel - or expect it all to break anytime soon - so every line of irc here or every time wiki doesn't fail to load (like it does 50% of times) I'm positively surprised. It's good for health, me thinks. | 22:32 |

| kerio | Estel_: by the way, peripheral without charging will kinda drain the n900's battery | 22:41 |
| Estel_ | 80 mA isnt much | 22:41 |
| kerio | 80mA is a lot | 22:41 |
| Estel_ | ~3000/80 | 22:42 |
| infobot | 37.5 | 22:42 |
| Estel_ | 37.5 hours is still more than average notebook battery :P | 22:42 |
| Estel_ | also, no one is forced to use it | 22:42 |
| Estel_ | just trigger, when you want to connect N900 as client through USB to something battery powered, without vampiric drain on said device power | 22:43 |
| kerio | Estel_: just disable the charging and connect | 22:43 |
| Estel_ | 500 mA after negotiation is overkill for many netbooks/notebooks | 22:43 |
| Estel_ | wut? charging will auto-re enable | 22:43 |
| kerio | also, i wonder if it's possible to charge very little | 22:43 |
| kerio | Estel_: why is that? | 22:43 |
| Estel_ | well, N900, as client, need boost to estabilish connection | 22:44 |
| Estel_ | i.e. 5V | 22:44 |
| kerio | echo none > /sys/class/power_supply/bq24150x_charger/mode | 22:44 |
| Estel_ | = enabling auto mode | 22:44 |
| Estel_ | see bq24150 documentation, if I haven't messed somethink | 22:45 |
| kerio | then how would this "peripheral without charging" mode be implemented? | 22:45 |
| Estel_ | BTW, trick with charging very low is possible, using steps provided by chip (50 or 150 is lowest) | 22:45 |
| kerio | oh, wouldn't that be even better? | 22:45 |
| kerio | you won't drain the n900's battery | 22:46 |
| Estel_ | but if you're sharing internet connection to notebook or something in train, you don't want N900 to draw *any* power | 22:46 |
| kerio | usually a netbook's battery is much bigger | 22:46 |
| kerio | hm | 22:46 |
| Estel_ | as N900 battery will still last much longer than notebook one, by factors of few | 22:46 |
| Estel_ | yea, it's bigger, and netbook uses much more :P | 22:46 |
| kerio | use the netbook to charge the n900, use the n900 | 22:46 |
| kerio | :D | 22:47 |
| Estel_ | well, no problem for me, as I don't have netbook, and my notebook is acting like desktop, since I got N900 :P | 22:47 |
| *** rm_work has quit IRC | 22:47 | |
| kerio | seriously though, how would you implement this? | 22:47 |
| Estel_ | N900 + small usb keyboard + usb/bluetooth mouse is my travel kit | 22:47 |
| kerio | disable the charging once the connection is established? | 22:47 |
| *** tilppis has quit IRC | 22:47 | |
| Estel_ | kerio, exactly | 22:48 |
| kerio | well, that's kinda easy | 22:48 |
| ShadowJK | N900 charging chip lowest charge current setting 550mA, but also input curren limits 100, 500 and 800mA available | 22:48 |
| Estel_ | if it wouldn't work, last resort is for N900 to provide boost for itself | 22:48 |
| *** InvalidHandle has quit IRC | 22:48 | |
| Estel_ | well, when I got hit by bug of "peripherial mode with boost", my device immediately though it got connected to something | 22:49 |
| ShadowJK | if you kill bme after connecting to laptop, charging will drop to 100mA input limit in 30s or so? | 22:49 |
| Estel_ | and presented me with screen inviting to choose mode (mass storage, pc suite) | 22:49 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, yes, but after 30 minutes, charging chip or omething will kick reboot | 22:49 |
| Estel_ | or 32 minutes | 22:49 |
| kerio | ShadowJK: we're using pali's bq24k module anyway | 22:50 |
| Estel_ | I remember vaguely, that something doesn't like charging in emergency mode for too long | 22:50 |
| Estel_ | kerio, if "just disabling charging" wouldn't work, then, peripherial + boost should work - after all, nothing would drain this 200mA, so only part of it would get wasted | 22:51 |
| ShadowJK | nah dunno, I've had various charge script mods for faster charging, and had failsafes that triggered and made my script abort, leaving device without bme or anything.. and device was still alive in the morning :P | 22:51 |
| Estel_ | without bme but connected, charging in emergency, with bright orange led? | 22:52 |
| ShadowJK | yes | 22:52 |
| kerio | Estel_: you probably also want pali's battery applet | 22:52 |
| kerio | it is good | 22:52 |
| Estel_ | interesting, worth trying | 22:52 |
| Estel_ | kerio, sure | 22:53 |
| kerio | except that if your bq27k is properly calibrated, you'll want to modprobe -r rx51_battery | 22:53 |
| Estel_ | it's probably in bme replacement section of his site? where is his site, again? | 22:53 |
| kerio | because it's less accurate | 22:53 |
| ShadowJK | bright orange led is the "JK's charge algorithm failed and failsafes triggered" indicator :P | 22:53 |
| kerio | ~pali | 22:53 |
| infobot | from memory, pali is http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/ | 22:53 |
| kerio | there's no section for that, though :c | 22:53 |
| Estel_ | kerio, rx-51 is totally inacurrate, as it use "design capacity", which is *never* right | 22:53 |
| kerio | Estel_: tell him, maybe you'll be more successful than me | 22:54 |
| Estel_ | no idea why Pali use it at all, maybe I don't know something | 22:54 |
| *** brkn has joined #maemo | 22:54 | |
| Estel_ | well, early mugens had thermpresistor there, so "design capacity" changed with temperature... | 22:54 |
| *** pvanhoof has joined #maemo | 22:54 | |
| Estel_ | Pali, I'm telling you, that "design capacity" is depreciated and shouldn't be used for anything | 22:54 |
| *** root__ has joined #maemo | 22:55 | |
| kerio | <Pali> rx51_battery reports value which is not wrong as value from bq27x | 22:55 |
| Estel_ | even nokians screwed it, when upgraded bl-5j to 1420 mAh | 22:55 |
| *** Darkchaos has quit IRC | 22:55 | |
| kerio | (should read "not as wrong" i think) | 22:55 |
| Estel_ | they use same resistor, that was in 1320 mAh bl-5j | 22:55 |
| Estel_ | define not wrong or not as wrong | 22:55 |
| *** root__ has quit IRC | 22:56 | |
| Estel_ | calibrated bq27x00 is accurate, rx_51 never is | 22:56 |
| kerio | indeed | 22:56 |
| Estel_ | design capacity is read from value of resistor between BMI and battery -, so whatever is put there, it's design capacity. Some manufacturers even put thermoresistor there, which confuses hell out of rx_51 | 22:56 |
| ShadowJK | hm, I should check on my other device where I have new bl-5j, but IIRC they upped the design capacity resistor in it. | 22:57 |
| Estel_ | Pali, what madness made you to use it and give it priority over bq27x00? | 22:57 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, I got 100% original 1420 BL-5J from brand new nokia asha | 22:57 |
| Estel_ | and it had same resistor | 22:57 |
| Estel_ | maybe it differs from batch to batch | 22:57 |
| Estel_ | I measured battery to determine if they really upped the capacity, then, I disassembled it | 22:58 |
| Pali | Estel_, bq27k chip not reporting correct max values if battery is not calibrated | 22:58 |
| Pali | also calibration can change max value only for some % | 22:58 |
| Estel_ | Pali, sure - but rx_51 *never* reports correct values | 22:58 |
| Estel_ | no matter if calibrated or not | 22:58 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; iirc 1320mAh batt had 1200mAh design capacity :) | 22:58 |
| Pali | so you need to do more cycles for better values | 22:59 |
| warfare | kerio: cssu-thumb complains about missing packages (libmameosec0, upstart, etc.). I have community, community-testing, community-thumb and extras enabled. | 22:59 |
| warfare | any hints? | 22:59 |
| Pali | ShadowJK, do you have rx51_battery kernel module? | 22:59 |
| kerio | warfare: enable redpill mode, and disable "ignore packages from wrong domains" | 22:59 |
| Estel_ | Pali, but rx_51 take "design capacity" from some random resistor, that no one, even manufactures, care of | 22:59 |
| Estel_ | They put whatever there | 22:59 |
| ShadowJK | Pali; no, I mean as reported by bme | 23:00 |
| Estel_ | whatever around 100kOhm | 23:00 |
| kerio | warfare: also, how did you install community-ssu-enabler correctly? a mirror for community-testing? | 23:00 |
| Estel_ | but it reads "design capacity" from same source - resistor | 23:00 |
| *** hardaker has quit IRC | 23:00 | |
| kerio | warfare: either have community or community-testing enabled | 23:00 |
| Estel_ | it is only thing used to "code" design capacity | 23:00 |
| kerio | both are simply useless, -testing will trump stable anyway | 23:00 |
| Estel_ | except that no one cares about it and no manufacturer, even Nokia, uses it properly | 23:00 |
| Estel_ | Whatever rx_51 shows, is not related to battery at all, it's just "something around 1320" | 23:01 |
| kerio | warfare: also, /j #maemo-ssu | 23:01 |
| warfare | kerio: Somehow I've installed the cssu-enabler by hand (cssu-testing) and did the upgrade with HAM. | 23:01 |
| Estel_ | less or more, depending on higher or lower resistor put there | 23:01 |
| *** NishanthMenon has quit IRC | 23:01 | |
| Estel_ | Pali ^ | 23:01 |
| Pali | if you have some idea how to fix this problem.... you have calibrated 12xx mAh battery, then you change it with 14xx or 1yyy battery, how should design capacity be read? | 23:01 |
| *** lizardo has quit IRC | 23:02 | |
| Estel_ | Pali, no physical way to read it, just re-calibration. But, rx_51 doesn't help here | 23:02 |
| Estel_ | as 1yyy battery manufacturer doesn't give a shit about coding design capacity into it | 23:02 |
| Pali | bq27k chip will not increase max capacity to normal new by one cycle and calibration | 23:02 |
| Estel_ | just threat it as non-existent | 23:02 |
| Estel_ | Pali, normally, it will | 23:03 |
| Pali | so what to show? old capacity? | 23:03 |
| Estel_ | it won't only, if you change battery by very high values, like 1200 -> 2700 mAh | 23:03 |
| Pali | for new better battery?? | 23:03 |
| Estel_ | Pali, sure, until it's calibrated. And use *need calibration* flag | 23:03 |
| Estel_ | it is exported by driver | 23:03 |
| Estel_ | afaik | 23:03 |
| *** BCMM has quit IRC | 23:04 | |
| Pali | and what to show if you totally discharge battery and bq chip will be reseted? | 23:04 |
| Estel_ | chip have flag that shows "need calibration" | 23:04 |
| Pali | after that max capacity wil be read from design register which is 2048 (or something) mAh | 23:04 |
| Estel_ | vdq is 1 during proper discharge cycle | 23:04 |
| Estel_ | so, when chip acknowledge new capacity, vdq changes to 0 | 23:04 |
| Pali | Estel_ calibration flag will be deleted after vdq | 23:04 |
| ShadowJK | I've never managed to reset bq on purpose by power starvation :) | 23:04 |
| Estel_ | Pali, it is 2048, but only if you put battery out ans bupbat is dead | 23:05 |
| Pali | but bq chip will not set correct max capacity with one cycle | 23:05 |
| Estel_ | so, alongside clock, chip will reset | 23:05 |
| Pali | ShadowJK, I was able to do that | 23:05 |
| Estel_ | for regular batteries, it will, during 2 cycles at worst | 23:05 |
| Estel_ | heck, even from 1300 to 3100 I need two cycles only | 23:06 |
| kerio | Estel_: so this battery is only 1420 mAh? :( | 23:06 |
| kerio | goddammit, vi____ said it was 1600 | 23:06 |
| * ShadowJK has a resetbq.sh for when changing battery | 23:06 | |
| Estel_ | maybe his relative capacity was 1600 on device, constant current test show ~1400 | 23:06 |
| Estel_ | Pali, there is no perfect solution to this, but rx_51 is making things even worse | 23:07 |
| Estel_ | not onlynot helping at all, but just outright lying about capacity, taking it from moon | 23:07 |
| Estel_ | and consider confusion, when someone use battery with thermoresistor here, i.e. "design capacity" changing every few minutes or hours | 23:08 |
| *** brkn has left #maemo | 23:08 | |
| Estel_ | or bug reports, that it shows 1320 for their new, oryginal, Nokia's 1400 batteries :P | 23:08 |
| Estel_ | or 1200, as Shadowjk said about design capacity of 1320 one | 23:08 |
| Estel_ | it's a mess | 23:08 |
| Estel_ | never ever use design capacity for anything, except scarry'ing children | 23:09 |
| kerio | Estel_: Pali's battery applet - now including a thermometer | 23:09 |
| Pali | so propose solution how to get design capacity | 23:09 |
| Estel_ | Pali, there is no such thing | 23:09 |
| Pali | which wil work in every situation | 23:09 |
| kerio | why do we even want the design capacity anyway | 23:09 |
| Estel_ | no thing in chip or battery itself reports capacity (properly). period | 23:09 |
| Estel_ | consider it non-existent | 23:10 |
| kerio | we want the current capacity | 23:10 |
| Pali | current capacity is calculated from design | 23:10 |
| Estel_ | w-aaaat! | 23:10 |
| Pali | bq chip doing it | 23:10 |
| Estel_ | so, my 3000mAh battery, which reports design of 1200, will show 600 mAh left on 50%?! | 23:11 |
| kerio | bq27k *counts* the mAh that pass through, aiui | 23:11 |
| Estel_ | no no no, current capacity is and always was full capacity - used capacity | 23:11 |
| Estel_ | yea, bq counts capacity used, variable one | 23:11 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK can confirm ;) | 23:12 |
| Pali | percentage is calculated from current and design | 23:12 |
| Estel_ | absolutely no | 23:12 |
| ShadowJK | kerio; if it was repeatable (the adc and resistor thermal drift seems to say otherwise), and accurate, it'd be nice gauge of battery health to compare current capacity vs design... On N9, the bq chip has "Impedance Track" thingy which does a more useful thing of comparing battery impedance. SpeedEvil's ohm.sh research path is similar, in determining the useful usable capacity of a battery and getting useful "battery low" thresholds so you dont get surpris | 23:12 |
| *** loganbr has joined #maemo | 23:12 | |
| kerio | and that's another thing that's dead wrong | 23:12 |
| ShadowJK | e shutdowns or sudden unexpected battery low warnings :) | 23:12 |
| Estel_ | or my 3000 mAh battery would get 280% | 23:12 |
| kerio | as my "110%" charge can report | 23:12 |
| kerio | Estel_: yep :D | 23:12 |
| Estel_ | Pali, using bq27x00 or later i2c get raw data from chip, I never, ever, saw using design capacity to calculate anything | 23:13 |
| Estel_ | over years | 23:13 |
| ShadowJK | Design Capacity = battery capacity when brand new. Capacity = current battery capacity. Charge = current amount of charge stored in the battery (where maximum = capacity, maximum when brand new = design capacity) | 23:13 |
| Estel_ | percentage is derived from full capacity/current capacity | 23:14 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, but lets stick to practice, not theory | 23:14 |
| kerio | Estel_: just rmmod rx51_battery :) | 23:14 |
| ShadowJK | In general, when Capacity divided by Design Capacity is less than 0.8, it's time to replace batt | 23:14 |
| Estel_ | how bq27200.sh calculates % of battery? | 23:14 |
| Estel_ | you wrote it, and you never used design capacity there, as reported by resistor | 23:14 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; as reported by bq. When calibrated, it's (current charge / current capacity) * 100 | 23:15 |
| Estel_ | kerio, rc51_battery get autoloaded after appled installation? need to blacklist it? | 23:15 |
| Estel_ | Pali, see? bq doesnt use design capacity for it | 23:15 |
| kerio | Estel_: it's autoloaded by the bme replacement | 23:15 |
| kerio | it's not "auto"loaded | 23:15 |
| kerio | it's modprobed by /etc/event.d/bme | 23:16 |
| kerio | but the battery applet is quite flexible | 23:16 |
| ShadowJK | "Design Capacity" is ILMD in bq, but the preprogrammed value is silly :) | 23:16 |
| kerio | you can do whatever you want and it'll switch after a handful of seconds | 23:16 |
| Estel_ | so just need to edit this event.d script, ok | 23:16 |
| Estel_ | I respect and admire Pali's work - it's just that using so-called design capacity for anything is wrong, because, as ShadowJK said, it's just silly value not related to reality | 23:17 |
| Pali | you need rx51_battery which reporting battery temperature to dsme and pulseaudio | 23:17 |
| Estel_ | what? I feel terrorized :P why pulseaudio want my battery temperature?! | 23:17 |
| Estel_ | also, couldn't bq27x00 report it, like in good old times? | 23:18 |
| Pali | I do not know | 23:18 |
| *** etrunko has quit IRC | 23:18 | |
| Pali | temperature from bq chip is not battery temperature (this wrote nokia bme devs) | 23:18 |
| Estel_ | ok, so couldn't rx51_battery just fulfil those needs, without touching design capacity with a long stick, and messing with battery applet? | 23:18 |
| Pali | and I implemeted battery temperature reading to rx51_battery | 23:18 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; if the bq chip had been used as intended, and as OpenMoko did it, integrated into the battery, it would've been properly programmed with ILMD which could be used as a proper source of "design cpacity" :) | 23:18 |
| Estel_ | hell! there is no other temp chip in device | 23:19 |
| kerio | Estel_: it's just the applet that prioritizes rx51_battery data over bq27x00_battery data | 23:19 |
| Estel_ | Pali, only one source of temp indication is inside bq | 23:19 |
| kerio | ShadowJK: no it wouldn't've | 23:19 |
| kerio | they would've put a random value in, as usual | 23:19 |
| kerio | especially the crap batteries | 23:19 |
| Estel_ | so whatever rx51_battery reads, it's the same as bq27x00 reads | 23:19 |
| ShadowJK | There's a temperature sensor connected to madc, according to the schematics | 23:19 |
| Pali | Estel_, not true | 23:19 |
| Estel_ | w-h-at? | 23:20 |
| Pali | rx51_battery and bme using temperature sensor from madc | 23:20 |
| Estel_ | so we got *two* of them? | 23:20 |
| Estel_ | ok. Sorry. My mistake. wasn't aware of that, and lived in lie about it | 23:20 |
| Estel_ | anywa | 23:20 |
| Estel_ | <Estel_> ok, so couldn't rx51_battery just fulfil those needs, without touching design capacity with a long stick, and messing with battery applet? | 23:20 |
| Estel_ | still applies | 23:20 |
| kerio | rx51_battery doesn't "touch" anything | 23:20 |
| kerio | it just reports data | 23:21 |
| kerio | it's the battery applet that's in denial | 23:21 |
| Estel_ | kerio, you know what I mean | 23:21 |
| Pali | all: I'm going to hacking kernel. If you have better solution how to determinate "design capacity" ping me back | 23:21 |
| Pali | solution should work in any state | 23:21 |
| Estel_ | there is no design capacity | 23:21 |
| kerio | THE BATTERY APPLET SHOULDN'T CARE ABOUT THE DESIGN CAPACITY FOR FUCK'S SAKE | 23:21 |
| Estel_ | why the hell applet prioritize anything? | 23:21 |
| Estel_ | just let users set what it should care about | 23:21 |
| kerio | Estel_: it goes rx51 module -> bq27k module -> bme -> bq27k over i2c, aiui | 23:21 |
| Estel_ | if someone want to use rx51_battery data for battery applet, let it be | 23:22 |
| *** teotwaki_ has joined #maemo | 23:22 | |
| Estel_ | hardcoded? | 23:22 |
| kerio | probably | 23:22 |
| kerio | patches welcome :) | 23:22 |
| Estel_ | Pali, better solution, as you asked - either doesn't care for design capacity in battery applet, or at least let user change priorities | 23:22 |
| ShadowJK | I agree, UI shouldn't care about "Design Capacity". On N9, the UI does care, but only as far as to display "Battery Health: OK" or something like that. | 23:23 |
| Estel_ | so one could set bq27x00 as higher priority over rx51_battery for applet | 23:23 |
| Pali | Estel_ I need something as "design" capacity for calculating percentages | 23:23 |
| kerio | you shouldn't use "design", design becomes useless in two months | 23:23 |
| Estel_ | Pali... | 23:23 |
| Estel_ | <ShadowJK> Estel_; as reported by bq. When calibrated, it's (current charge / current capacity) * 100 | 23:23 |
| Pali | and then is not calibrated? | 23:24 |
| kerio | yeah, i'd use the bq27k fuel gauge | 23:24 |
| Estel_ | here are your percents | 23:24 |
| Pali | note that CI flag is not enought for calibration | 23:24 |
| Estel_ | shit. If it's not calibrated, "design capacity" doesn't help! | 23:24 |
| ShadowJK | Pali; you don't really, percentage should be calculated against "last measured capacity". Even lapotops do that :) | 23:24 |
| Estel_ | why healing cold with cancer? | 23:24 |
| Estel_ | yes... | 23:24 |
| kerio | the issue is the usual dumb user who doesn't know what a battery is | 23:25 |
| Pali | what about max(bq_max, rx_desing) ? | 23:25 |
| Pali | as design capacity? | 23:25 |
| kerio | but those will use bme data, anyway | 23:25 |
| freemangordon | Pali: you'd better use bq if calibrated, otherwise design reported by rx51 | 23:26 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, design reported by rx51 is even worse than not calibrated bq | 23:27 |
| ShadowJK | and "battery capacity" as LMD != ILMD ? BSI : LMD | 23:27 |
| Estel_ | or, calculate it in any way you want, just allow user to overwrite priority settings in battery applet, even if by simple text file | 23:27 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: no, it is not, for genuine batteries | 23:28 |
| kerio | if bq27k isn't calibrated, don't show the charge max and use the percentage from bq27k | 23:28 |
| *** andre__ has quit IRC | 23:28 | |
| ShadowJK | (use LMD if LMD is not same as ILMD, if LMD same as ILMD use BSI reported capa) | 23:28 |
| Estel_ | to allow users set bq27x00 as higher priority over rx51 *always*, if desired. Problem solved | 23:28 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, nope, as said, genuine batteries have it screwed too | 23:28 |
| kerio | ShadowJK: what's ILMD? | 23:28 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: if bq not calibrated, values reported are bogus | 23:28 |
| Pali | if bq27k is not calibrated kernel driver is not reporting any capacity | 23:28 |
| Pali | only voltage and current | 23:28 |
| Estel_ | 1320 ones got 1200 in design capacity, 1400 ones use same, but some of them, reportedly, say 1320 | 23:28 |
| freemangordon | this ^^^ too | 23:28 |
| kerio | Pali: it's still reporting the percentage, right? | 23:29 |
| Pali | no | 23:29 |
| kerio | wat | 23:29 |
| Pali | -ENODATA | 23:29 |
| kerio | hm | 23:29 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: all nokia batteries I have here report its design capacity through rx51 correctly | 23:29 |
| Estel_ | hm, strange, using i2cget raw readings, I have capacity no matter what | 23:29 |
| Estel_ | even if not calibrated | 23:29 |
| freemangordon | ve've verified that on a couple of other devices | 23:29 |
| Estel_ | ShadowJK, how do you deal with it in bq27200.sh? | 23:29 |
| freemangordon | *we | 23:29 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: but it is bogus | 23:30 |
| Estel_ | well, zillions of devices using bq27200.sh over years can confirm, that capacity should be reported even on uncalibrated (but wrong capacity) | 23:30 |
| Estel_ | nothing more bogus than using some hardcoded resistor put inside battery to determine it's capacity and percentage | 23:30 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; i don't. bq27200.sh is specifically reporting raw bq27200 stuff. The only "modified truth" I do is that the chip reports a flag status for charging/discharging, and I apply that to the reported current | 23:31 |
| Estel_ | you could as good screw it and hardcode 1200 as this value into applet | 23:31 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: wrong | 23:31 |
| freemangordon | mi 1360 reports as 1360 | 23:31 |
| freemangordon | *my | 23:31 |
| freemangordon | my 1430 reports as 1430 | 23:31 |
| freemangordon | genuine nokia | 23:31 |
| Estel_ | so wtf is with kernel driver, that it doesn't get same things as i2c can get from bq chip? | 23:31 |
| kerio | Estel_: you can still read the "registers" file, it's a text file | 23:32 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, nice. My 100% genuine 1420 bl-5j from Nokia asha, brand new, from carrier, reports 1200 | 23:32 |

| Estel_ | it's guessworking | 23:32 |
| *** sixwheeledbeast has quit IRC | 23:32 | |

| freemangordon | Estel_: there is no 1420 mAh in ashas ;) | 23:32 |
| freemangordon | it is 1430 | 23:32 |
| freemangordon | so, check once again if it is genuine | 23:32 |
| Estel_ | ok | 23:33 |
| Estel_ | 1430 | 23:33 |

| Pali | everybody with kp52 please paste your outputs of: $ cat /sys/class/power_supply/rx51-battery/uevent | 23:33 |
| Estel_ | doest it change anything re design capacity being silly value, that shouldn't be used for anything in UI? | 23:33 |
| kerio | Pali: it's a bunch of lines | 23:33 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: what I am saying is to ise it as a last resort | 23:33 |
| freemangordon | *use | 23:33 |
| Pali | Estel_, freemangordon, kerio ^^^^ | 23:33 |
| freemangordon | Pali: no kp52 here :( | 23:33 |
| Pali | ok | 23:34 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, could agree (although don't like forcing it as last resort, would like to keep bq readings or no readings at all, until calibrated) | 23:34 |
| kerio | http://pastebin.mozilla.org/2086151 , and the battery is *not* 1267mAh, it's around 1400 | 23:34 |
| *** sixwheeledbeast has joined #maemo | 23:34 | |
| Estel_ | as design capacity is just bullshit, not related to reality at all. Or related, if you got lucky, but not physically | 23:34 |
| freemangordon | kerio: I guess it is that chinese one? | 23:34 |
| kerio | yep | 23:35 |
| *** Milhouse_01 has joined #maemo | 23:35 | |

| kerio | vi____ was luckier than me i suppose | 23:35 |
| freemangordon | not here :D (shipped) | 23:35 |
| kerio | (calibrated 1600mAh) | 23:35 |
| Milhouse_01 | hi | 23:35 |
| kerio | vi____: i hate you | 23:35 |
| kerio | Milhouse_01: hi | 23:35 |
| Estel_ | Pali, second, I'll reboot device to get kp52 modules loaded etc | 23:35 |
| ShadowJK | Estel_; amusingly even before bq27200.sh I didn't use statusbar batterymeter, I had a monstrous script that read data from "hal-device bme" every minute and applied heurestics to make it make more sense and be more useful :) | 23:36 |
| *** _rd has joined #maemo | 23:36 | |

| *** chenca has quit IRC | 23:36 | |
| freemangordon | ShadowJK: I guess once calibrated bq reports correct values. | 23:36 |
| Milhouse_01 | is there any chance the get a backup of pr1.3 firmware for n900 | 23:36 |
| ShadowJK | freemangordon; yes | 23:36 |
| kerio | Pali: it would be neat to have a "flags" dir for easy access to flags and a "raw" dir for easy access to the content of the registers | 23:36 |
| Milhouse_01 | :-( | 23:36 |
| kerio | Milhouse_01: tablets-dev.nokia.com being down is recent | 23:37 |
| kerio | there's plenty of backups, i'm not sure if any of them are public, considering that it's not legal to redistribute the images | 23:37 |
| freemangordon | so, what I am trying to say, is to use the lower reading from rx51, until bq gets calibrated, not those bogus > 200mAh reported by bq when not calibrated | 23:37 |
| Pali | kerio, I sent bq27k patch with file "registers" to upstream but was rejected | 23:37 |
| freemangordon | *2000mAh | 23:38 |
| kerio | the registers file is in here, i wanted *more* :3 | 23:38 |
| kerio | freemangordon: if bq27k isn't calibrated, don't show the full capacity | 23:38 |
| kerio | put a question mark | 23:38 |
| freemangordon | kerio: this is the driver | 23:38 |
| kerio | oh | 23:38 |
| Milhouse_01 | hmm... i'll never buy anything from Nokia again ... waiting for Jolla | 23:38 |
| freemangordon | not the bq itself afaik | 23:38 |
| kerio | Milhouse_01: it's not like you can buy more n900s from nokia | 23:39 |
| ShadowJK | freemangordon; specifically, if reported LMD (Last measured discharge) isn't a value exactly equal to that of LMD=ILMD; and/or loop: LMD=LMD-LMD/6; (iirc) | 23:39 |
| freemangordon | ShadowJK: you lost me :). I am not that much involved in bq stuff(like you, Pali and doc) | 23:40 |
| freemangordon | but what i have seen to be reported by an uncalibrated bq is something like 2057 mAh | 23:41 |
| kerio | Milhouse_01: we're in the middle of a bigass transition from nokia-owned stuff to community-owned stuff | 23:41 |
| kerio | confusion is to be expected | 23:41 |
| Pali | I got 20xx max capatity too | 23:41 |
| kerio | Pali: well perhaps you should calibrate your bq27k :P | 23:41 |
| freemangordon | which is insane to be shown to an enduser | 23:41 |
| Pali | and because BME turning device off before EDV1, it wss never correct | 23:42 |
| freemangordon | :nod: | 23:42 |
| kerio | freemangordon: so just don't show it | 23:42 |
| *** eijk_ has joined #maemo | 23:42 | |
| Pali | so we should not use uncalibrated max capacity from bq27k | 23:42 |
| Pali | and then we should not use % from bq27k | 23:42 |
| Pali | (because % is calculated from max capacity) | 23:43 |
| kerio | the percentage from bq27k is taken from LMD aiui | 23:43 |
| freemangordon | that's why I think it is better to either show rx51 readings (which will be somehow relevant for new genuine batteries) or as kerio says, show "capacity unknown" | 23:43 |
| Milhouse_01 | hmm ok. thanks i will see | 23:43 |
| Pali | percentage in bq27k is current/max*100 | 23:43 |
| freemangordon | until calibrated that is | 23:44 |
| kerio | ShadowJK: what's the percentage calculated by bq27k when it's not calibrated but has done a couple of cycles of charge-discharge? | 23:44 |
| Milhouse_01 | bye! CU | 23:44 |
| kerio | Milhouse_01: hold on | 23:44 |
| Pali | kerio, % is calculated by ^^^^ always | 23:45 |
| kerio | merlin1991: do you have the fiasco images for pr1.3 somewhere? | 23:45 |
| ShadowJK | freemangordon; so, "last measured discharge" (LMD) is the capacity bq thinks battery has. ILMD (I=initial) is a preprogrammed default value of 2000-something mAh. On each valid full to empty charge, LMD gets adjusted based on how much juice the battery had before reachign empty. There's, however, a safeguard preventing "large" capacity adjustments (because chip was designed to be integrated into battery, and would expect small gradual degradation of capac | 23:45 |
| ShadowJK | ity, not big steps).. IIRC that limit is 1/6th of LMD.. so, if LMD=ILMD, or if LMD is a value which can be derived by starting with LMD=ILMD and sbtracting 1/6th of LMD from LMD, it would indicate the proper capacityy hasnt been learned | 23:45 |
| *** Milhouse_01 has left #maemo | 23:46 | |
| *** eijk has quit IRC | 23:46 | |
| ShadowJK | Pali; bq % is not calculated from max capacity. it's calculated from last measured capacity | 23:46 |
| Pali | ah, yes I mean that (in kernel there is max and design) | 23:47 |
| Pali | max = bq_last and design = bq_max | 23:47 |
| kerio | ShadowJK: but it requires a vdq-edv1 cycle, right? | 23:47 |

| freemangordon | ShadowJK: thanks | 23:47 |
| Estel_ | ok, back, I'm on kp52 now | 23:48 |
| Estel_ | kerio, i don't use mugen at the moment - dual scud | 23:48 |
| Estel_ | it reports 1200, obviously | 23:48 |
| kerio | hm | 23:48 |
| *** _rd has quit IRC | 23:48 | |
| Pali | I have there another problem: now hald-addon-bme turn off device when EDVF is set. But I got problem with "enter pin code" when battery was between EDV1 and EDVF | 23:48 |
| Estel_ | mugens got thermoresistors there, so design capacity changes with temperature | 23:48 |
| Pali | and GSM modem not worked | 23:48 |
| kerio | so bq27k's value of 2000 is more accurate than rx51's value of 1200 | 23:48 |
| Pali | after I charged battery | 23:49 |
| kerio | :D | 23:49 |
| Pali | s/before/ | 23:49 |
| Estel_ | Pali, what was this thing to cat | 23:49 |
| kerio | Pali: not even after charging a bit? | 23:49 |
| Estel_ | ? | 23:49 |
| *** arcean_ has joined #maemo | 23:49 | |
| freemangordon | Estel_: hmm, why 1200? | 23:49 |
| kerio | cat /sys/class/power_supply/rx51-battery/uevent | 23:49 |
| ShadowJK | Pali; too low battery | 23:49 |
| freemangordon | I guess you got those in parallel | 23:49 |
| *** arcean has quit IRC | 23:49 | |
| kerio | freemangordon: it has the value of a single scud | 23:49 |
| Pali | so I will change code to turn off device when EDV1 will be set | 23:49 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, yea, but resistor is only one | 23:49 |
| Pali | what do you think? ^^^ | 23:50 |
| freemangordon | aah, ok | 23:50 |
| Estel_ | I don't use two connectors | 23:50 |
| Estel_ | just two cells | 23:50 |
| freemangordon | ok, got it | 23:50 |
| kerio | Pali: in the applet? in hald-addon-bme? | 23:50 |
| kerio | i'm not sure | 23:50 |
| Pali | hald-addon-bme | 23:50 |
| Estel_ | single scud is 1500 in reality, btw | 23:50 |
| kerio | Pali: it would screw up by calibration script | 23:50 |
| ShadowJK | Pali; EDV1 (3248 mV) is already pretty marginal for modem. EDVF at 2800 or something is just too low. the modem is getting undervolted and crashing, then getting rebooted. UI presents enter pin code. | 23:50 |
| Estel_ | 1400 by design, and 1200 by design reported via resistor :P | 23:50 |
| Estel_ | crashing modem due to undervolting may be not healthy for it | 23:51 |
| kerio | Pali: perhaps wait a tiny bit after edv1 is set? | 23:51 |
| Estel_ | just wild guess | 23:51 |
| Pali | Estel_: cat /sys/class/power_supply/rx51-battery/uevent | 23:51 |
| Estel_ | kk | 23:51 |
| freemangordon | Estel_: well, curse mugen for not putting the correct resistor then :P | 23:51 |
| kerio | yeah, we shouldn't get to the brownout point | 23:51 |
| kerio | freemangordon: no, mugen has a thermistor there | 23:51 |
| freemangordon | or scud | 23:51 |
| kerio | even more fun | 23:51 |
| Estel_ | Pali, no reason why device couldn't shutdown at edv1 | 23:51 |
| Estel_ | bme killed it at higher voltage, most of the times | 23:52 |
| kerio | Estel_: to calibrate bq27k | 23:52 |
| freemangordon | I wonder why the hell they put a thermistor there | 23:52 |
| Estel_ | or, even better, lets shutdown device at sysfs value set by user :) | 23:52 |
| kerio | Pali: can you make it wait like 30 seconds? | 23:52 |
| kerio | Estel_: hald-addon-bme is userland | 23:52 |
| ShadowJK | With japod batt and recent nokia batt, there's seconds of useful life available after 3248mV. With mugen and crap ancient bl-5j, device can last hour or two after 3248 (ignoring modem unreliability) | 23:52 |
| freemangordon | Pali: can;t we put the device offline? | 23:52 |
| Estel_ | freemangordon, cause they had a batch of those lying around? :P | 23:52 |
| kerio | Pali: my (and most) calibration scripts work by charging until vdq, then disabling the charging, then polling every 5 or 10 seconds until edv1, and then restarting the charging | 23:53 |
| kerio | all of this with the charger attached | 23:53 |
| ShadowJK | freemangordon; historically Nokia used thermistor too. | 23:53 |
| ShadowJK | freemangordon; back in nimh days :) | 23:53 |
| freemangordon | ShadowJK: I see. but in n900 it has a different purpose | 23:53 |
| kerio | do you have a reasonable way to make it wait like a minute before shutting down? | 23:53 |
| Estel_ | Pali | 23:54 |

| Estel_ | = this strange value | 23:55 |
| freemangordon | yeah, sure | 23:55 |
| Estel_ | ? | 23:55 |
| freemangordon | rx51 driver is out for 2-3 months or something | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | I can check it again after two weeks and you will see it changed slightly | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | no, no | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | it was readable for ages | 23:56 |
| freemangordon | it uses a different formula compared to nokia's binary (whatever the name was) | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | via haldon-bme or something, don't remember | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | ah | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | so, I though about that nokia's value | 23:56 |
| freemangordon | don't :P | 23:56 |
| Estel_ | as for rx51 it's first time I check it now | 23:56 |
| *** sixwheeledbeast has quit IRC | 23:56 | |
| Estel_ | anyway, it's not related to reality, at all | 23:57 |

| freemangordon | Estel_: nokia genuine batteries report almost correct values | 23:58 |
| freemangordon | and that value will stay only for 2-3 recharge cycles | 23:58 |
| Estel_ | sure, we can expect non-whitstanding support of genuine batteries, for next years :| | 23:58 |
| freemangordon | until bq gets calibrated | 23:58 |
| Estel_ | I haven't said that your idea is bad | 23:58 |
| Estel_ | it's that I see no reason why not allow user to change priority settings if desired | 23:59 |
| Estel_ | so, let it be as you said by default | 23:59 |
| freemangordon | for sure it is better than reporting > 2000mAh :) | 23:59 |
| *** konelix__ has joined #maemo | 23:59 | |
| Pali | kerio, I need logs why it report 110% | 23:59 |
