| Mike11 | hi everybody :) | 03:23 |
| *** valeriusL has quit IRC | 03:23 | |
| Mike11 | I have a Nokia n900 which was not able to read its IMEI, and displays "All telephony functions disabled . . ." error on every boot | 03:25 |
| Mike11 | and when I reflash the device I used to get CMT flashing failed | 03:25 |
| Hurrian | Mike11: your baseband has probably fallen off the board, you can use a small spring from a ball pen to push it down | 03:26 |
| Mike11 | while searching for a solution , I saw something about putting springs on some ICs | 03:26 |
| Mike11 | yes Hurrian , but I used some papers instead if springs because I didn't expect it to work | 03:27 |
| Mike11 | surprisingly my phone is now able to read its IMEI | 03:27 |
| Mike11 | first of all, should I now remove the paper and put springs, or do you think it does not matter? | 03:28 |
| Mike11 | the problem now is that every boot it says "Unable to establish network connection. Contact service" | 03:29 |
| Hurrian | try springs, but remember it'll always be a stopgap solution | 03:29 |
| Mike11 | and I can't dial any number of course | 03:30 |
| Mike11 | when I go to settings -> phone , it freezes for a while and then displays "Cellular network not available" | 03:30 |
| Mike11 | I thought the software needs a reflash | 03:31 |
| *** RES401 has quit IRC | 03:31 | |
| Mike11 | so I reflashed and for the first the time it was able to erase and program the CMT | 03:31 |
| Mike11 | but the problem isn't gone :( | 03:32 |
| Mike11 | any ideas? | 03:32 |
| Mike11 | I feel I 'm getting close to fix my n900 | 03:32 |
| Mike11 | too bad if it does not get fixed after I erased everything now with the flash :( | 03:33 |
| *** tanty has joined #maemo | 03:35 | |
| *** valeriusL has joined #maemo | 03:35 | |
| Hurrian | the problem isn't in a corrupt CMT, it's a /disconnected/ CMT | 03:36 |
| Mike11 | Hurrian, I don't think it is disconnected anymore | 03:36 |
| Mike11 | the flasher says it flashed cmt successfuly | 03:36 |
| Mike11 | so it was able to communicate with the CMT | 03:37 |
| Hurrian | if you're getting communication errors, that means your shim has loosened up, and needs to be tightened again | 03:37 |
| Mike11 | another thing is that I can see my IMEI when typing *#06# | 03:37 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, if pressing the baseband chip down with paper "fixed" it (even partially) i would assume that it has been partially broken off the pcb, and the phone can never be relied on again for cellular communications... | 03:37 |
| *** robbiethe1st has joined #maemo | 03:38 | |
| Mike11 | chainsawbike , shit ! :( | 03:38 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, you may get it to work, but do not rely on it staying that way | 03:38 |
| robbiethe1st | What happened? | 03:39 |
| Mike11 | how can you tell it is broken, while it was flashed successfuly ?? | 03:39 |
| *** valerius has joined #maemo | 03:39 | |
| Mike11 | its memory and communications with the main board are ok | 03:39 |
| Mike11 | since the flasher programmed the CMT | 03:39 |
| Mike11 | is that right? | 03:39 |
| Mike11 | or I am messing things up? | 03:39 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, its memory and communications with the main board partially work for now because the chip is pressed against the contacts on the pcb with the paper | 03:40 |
| Mike11 | so I broke my phone thinking I've fixed it :( | 03:41 |
| Mike11 | chainsawbike, are you sure this cannot be software only related? | 03:42 |
| Mike11 | maybe the flash version | 03:42 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, it is a known problem probably caused by flexing of the pcb from pressing keys too hard | 03:43 |
| Mike11 | chainsawbike , any way to fix it? | 03:44 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, not easily ( reflow? ), the paper/spring fixes should only be considered a temp fix | 03:48 |
| Mike11 | can't that be software related at all!?! | 03:51 |
| Mike11 | please anybody with any opinion about that help me , thanks for your help chainsaw :'( | 03:52 |
| chainsawbike | from what you have said i doubt it but a full reflash does not take that long so... | 03:52 |
| Mike11 | I already have did a full reflash | 03:53 |
| Mike11 | but thinking it might br firmware related | 03:53 |
| Mike11 | firmware version** | 03:53 |
| chainsawbike | Mike11, i assume you use the latest version? | 03:55 |

| * Maxdamantus wonders how to interpret these dbus messages in syslog | 09:04 | |
| Maxdamantus | I think mce receives the request to vibrate from something else. | 09:06 |
| *** tanty has quit IRC | 09:07 | |
| hxka | I can reproduce it: after boot vibrator works only for a short period of time, after which it stops until I restart mce, then it works fine until next boot | 09:08 |
| hxka | I missed a call a couple of times because of that | 09:10 |
| Maxdamantus | # echo 255 80 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-1/1-0048/twl4030_vibra/pulse | 09:12 |
| Maxdamantus | can see mce doing that when something successfully makes it vibrate. | 09:12 |
| Maxdamantus | so it must be something else that's trying to send those messages to mce, but failing for some reason. | 09:13 |

| * Maxdamantus doesn't know much about dbus or gconf. | 09:15 | |
| Maxdamantus | and yeah, regarding your thing, I've heard of people removing the lint from the vibrator to get it to work again. | 09:17 |
| Maxdamantus | wonder if my (second-hand) device's vibrator is weak because of that. | 09:17 |
| Maxdamantus | if I've got it constantly pulsing, it will skip a few sometimes if I move it. | 09:18 |
| hxka | Maxdamantus: it works flawlessly after I restart mce | 09:18 |
| Maxdamantus | and overall, I find it really difficult to notice in my pocket. | 09:18 |

| Mike11 | is the latest official firmware for nokia n900 "RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.003_PR_COMBINED_003_ARM" | 10:10 |
| Mike11 | ??? | 10:10 |
| *** saif has joined #maemo | 10:10 | |
| hxka | Yeah, officially | 10:11 |
| hxka | Though yours is fo '003' region | 10:12 |
| hxka | There is RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin, which exists on Nokia servers but wasn't officially released | 10:13 |
| Mike11 | hxka, here is my situation, any help is really appreciated :( | 10:14 |
| Mike11 | my nokia n900 was having the error "all telephony functions . . ." | 10:14 |
| Mike11 | and when I flash, it used to say "CMT flashing failed" | 10:15 |
| Mike11 | until yesterday, I saw that spring fix, and put some paper where I should put the springs | 10:15 |
| hxka | I've read about your problem, no need to rehearse | 10:15 |
| Mike11 | hxka sorry for re-posting I thought you weren't here | 10:16 |
| hxka | If you need to put paper, that means cmt is not connected properly anymore | 10:16 |
| hxka | That it flashes correctly now doesn't mean it will work correctly as well | 10:17 |
| Mike11 | why springs connect CMT better than paper, isn't it about pressure only? | 10:17 |
| hxka | Maybe spring applies more pressure, I don't know? have you tried it? | 10:18 |
| hxka | Maybe applying pressure is not enough in your case | 10:18 |
| Mike11 | hxka, actually no, brcause I am afraid I've broken the whole PCB, as someone here suggested | 10:19 |
| Mike11 | but I saw people having the error I'm talking about because of installing a firmware older than a firmware that was installed | 10:20 |
| Mike11 | that's why I am thinking of installing that latest unofficial firmware | 10:21 |
| hxka | "RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.003_PR_COMBINED_003_ARM" contains latest cmt | 10:21 |
| hxka | That update contains only ssl security fix, no cmt flash update | 10:21 |
| Mike11 | hxka, so you think there is no sense in trying "RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin" ?? | 10:21 |
| hxka | Yeah, I don't think it'll help | 10:22 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | Mike11: when your modem chipset is able to talk to Application Processor Environment (APE, aka linux) then you maybe can readout IMEI and flash new firmware etc, but it still may suffer from further contact problems on RF aka antenna side. Does it ask for PIN and accept the PIN you enter? | 11:41 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | modem chipset consists of several (at least 3) chips, one of them for RF and TX amps, while the hugest one is mainly so called baseband chip that talks to APE, and second hugest one is "the power supply" that also might be partially detached from PCB and thus not powering the TX amps in 3rd chip. When baseband works but RF side has a problem, you will see exactly the symptom you described | 11:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | your paper fix might have worked for hugest chip but failed for smaller one | 11:45 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | dang, some user in this channel planned to do a reflow in baking oven, to fix cmt. I wonder what became of that plan | 11:49 |
| *** norayr has quit IRC | 11:49 | |
| peetah | DocScrutinizer05: you mean put the board in a classic oven ? if it may reconnect some connections, can't it also disconnect others ? | 11:51 |
| peetah | it seems very risky to me | 11:51 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes, this is risky | 11:53 |
| peetah | my n900 also has this problem, but I'd rather keep a computer without a modem waiting for neo900 than a definitive brick | 11:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sure | 11:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I didn't recommend doing that oven reflow thing | 11:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there's a number of "manually" soldered parts on N900 PCB which possibly don't tolerate reflow process | 11:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | at least could be | 11:55 |
| *** valeriusL has joined #maemo | 11:55 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | and the process temperature margin between successful reflow of lead-free solder and max allowable temperature for chips is quite small | 11:57 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | something in the range 240°C .. 280°C. Below that the leadfree solder won't melt, above the chips will die | 11:58 |

| *** saif has quit IRC | 12:05 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | probably there must be a special tool for opening can / lifting the lid | 12:05 |
| peetah | but do these cans have to be closed for the modem to be functional, because as you say, once opened, I don't see how to put them back nicely | 12:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | they are not extremely critical | 12:06 |
| peetah | is this some kind of faraday cage ? | 12:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | IOW your device will work without lids on cans | 12:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes | 12:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ut putting lids back on is not difficult at all | 12:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | when you haven't destroyed the lids completely during removal | 12:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the lifting is pure ZEN and takes maybe 10 to 20 minutes for first lid you are lifting | 12:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | like building a house of cards | 12:10 |
| peetah | so patience and precision ... I should definitely stay away from them :) | 12:13 |

| *** ArGGu^^ has joined #maemo | 12:14 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you start at one corner, ideally one with long sides left and right, and lift 1. dent left, 1. r, 2.l, 2.r, 1.l again since it snapped closed again, 2.l, 2.r, 3.r, 2.l, 3.r, 1.l, 1.r, 1+2.l, 1..3.r, and so on and on, 10 minutes, until finally the one corner comes off visibly a 0.2mm and on maybe 5mm distance left and right from corner. Then you've won the battle | 12:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | you need a pretty sturdy pinpoint instrument for that, like a tiny knife, dentist tool, very small screwdriver with sharp blade... | 12:18 |
| *** qwazix has quit IRC | 12:18 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I'm sure there are more easy ways to open lids, but I don't know of them (yet?) | 12:18 |
| *** qwazix has joined #maemo | 12:21 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the latches/dents go down to the PCB rather close, so to gut under them, you need a really pinpointed tool. For me small knife of a tiny swiss army knife (~3cm length) worked best | 12:30 |
| *** ArGGu^^ has quit IRC | 12:32 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I bet nokia service manual suggests something like a can opener and then discarding the lids and use new spare parts | 12:33 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ;-) | 12:33 |
| jaska | like for the screws and such | 12:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 12:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | alas those tiny cheesy metal parts are terribly expensive to produce, regarding initial tooling expense etc. Once you got all tooling, the lid costs a cent or less | 12:37 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | again exactly like the screws | 12:39 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | figure you'd want to build a screw by yurself, DIY | 12:40 |
| *** dos11 has quit IRC | 12:40 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | most people don't understand such aspects of building a device. They only see 5g plastic when they look at e.g. Jolla TOH and say "duh, this can't cost more than 5ct! it#s just a tiny amount of plastic" | 12:42 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or "there are 10 screws holding that part, can't cost more than 1ct to replace them" - yeah sure, IF the scres are standard size somebody builds by the billion qty | 12:43 |

| *** dos11 has quit IRC | 12:45 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or more | 12:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | building 10 screws might not be significantly cheaper | 12:46 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | maybe 500 | 12:46 |
| *** sunny_s has joined #maemo | 12:47 | |
| * ShadowJK_ occasionally makes own screws | 12:54 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | now for building prototypes this becomes "interesting" question: do you build 10 screws for one proto, costs you 500. Or do you expend 1000 bucks for 100 screws, and maybe find that you bought 90 "lemons" worth 500 bucks and just ready to discard them right away | 12:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ShadowJK_: for sure a funny exercise | 12:55 |
| ShadowJK_ | but not small ones. and they don't have to look good or have exactly shaped head | 12:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | how do you make the thread? | 12:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | making thread is a really demanding task | 12:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | nowadays you can do that with CNC maybe | 12:57 |
| *** lizardo has joined #maemo | 13:03 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | commonly used large scale method is to roll the thread into the screw with two plates of hardened steel | 13:12 |
| *** andre__ has joined #maemo | 13:13 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or you already cold-deform raw steel rods in a mold that has the thread and all except the slot(s) in head | 13:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I think spax and wood screws are made like this | 13:15 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | r00t|d430: did you consider grabbing your files and file a thread into it manually? ;-) | 13:29 |
| r00t|d430 | DocScrutinizer05: filing won't do... the diameter is too small, at least for getting the thread it would normally have | 13:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yeah | 13:30 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | cold-deforming moves the material from inside the thread to beyond the diameter of the wire | 13:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no material gets lost in rolling/cold-forming. So filing is doomed to fail, you remove material you would need | 13:31 |
| r00t|d430 | well, could still make a smaller thread that way | 13:32 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yes, during 2 years of weekend leisure work ;-) | 13:32 |
| r00t|d430 | production errors are always fun... i also found a dowel screw at a shop once that was missing the metric thread... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Stockschraube.jpg | 13:33 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | bottom line: you can build incredibly cheap yet sophisticated stuff, when you get incredibly expensive and sophisticated "tools" (aka machines) for doing so | 13:36 |

| *** saif has joined #maemo | 16:13 | |
| *** MMN-o has joined #maemo | 16:13 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | or maybe userland processes escalate permissions via sudo prior to sending stuff to mce? | 16:19 |
| *** alien2003 has joined #maemo | 16:19 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | thinking about it, user "user" sjould only have write access on session buss, not on system bus, no? | 16:20 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | since system bus affects all system (as the name implies), it should be restricted to superusers. Otherwise one user could cause havoc for other concurrent user | 16:21 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | same rationale applies to file permissions in /dev/ and /sys/ | 16:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so, depending on the particular function and the way it's implemented in mce or whatever, the function should either be systembus and exclusively for root/superuser, or mce implements arbitrating and offers e.g. a "I'm fine with shutdown" function on session buss(es) where real system shutdown only happens when all users allowed it. You can come up with arbitrary number of similar designs to rule who may do what, the principle stays the | 16:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | same | 16:27 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | basically this all are partial aspects of "resource arbitration" topic | 16:29 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | mce is a classicla "middleware" that's responsible of arbitrating/allocating/distributing/assigning resources of all kinds | 16:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | classical* even | 16:31 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | simple example: diable scree dimming. When one task is asking mce to keep screen active, then a 2nd task does same, then 1, tasks says "ok i'm done, you may dim screen now"... MCE shall know about second task still needing screen undimmed | 16:34 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | actually currently this is implemented in a even smarter way, where every task has a lease in screen backlight resource, and that lease needs renewal every few seconds. Only when all tasks stop renewing their leases, a few seconds later screen dims | 16:35 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | (system shutdown) you could argue that a user who wants to shutdown the system first should shutdown own session. Thus any such system-shutdown would most likely get implemented into the session bus itself and the tear-down of that particular session bus. When all session busses are stopped/terminated, mce knows there's no more user session running and thus can consider whether or not system should get shut down. Depending on info the | 16:52 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sessions told mce before terminating. A session might just want to restart itself. Anyway such function would obviously best get integrated into hildon desktop since HD basically establishes the user session | 16:52 |
| *** fortytwo has quit IRC | 16:53 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | btw same principle also applies to sensors. Particularly those who have different operation modes and maybe even triggers. Think accelerometer. Think liblocation. | 16:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | modem is a very special case, since it's not clearly defined if e.g. an imbound call belongs to system, to currently active user session, or even to all user sessions. | 16:58 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | other exclusive resurces like e.g. camera are simpler, since you basically can handle them on a first-come-first-serve basis | 16:59 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | for that often a devnode or sysnode has sufficient "arbitration" simply by locking | 17:00 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ideally all sys and dev nodes (where needed) would come in a user exclusive namespace, and the drivers would do arbitration. Thus every user session could behave like it was the only one on that machine, and when a resource is not available, then the according device node (or sysnode) would reject an open() with an appropriate -Error | 17:11 |
| *** LinuxCode has joined #maemo | 17:12 | |
| *** fortytwo has joined #maemo | 17:12 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sometimes not the open() but a write() - when e.g a write to a configuration node collides with something another concurrent user already had configured | 17:12 |

| honestly | I decided my emmc is broken after a lot of debugging | 19:07 |
| vi__ | It is the greatest job evr. | 19:07 |
| freemangordon | honestly: did you reflash emmc too? | 19:07 |
| freemangordon | vi__: great | 19:07 |
| honestly | yes | 19:07 |
| honestly | reflashing emmc was the step that revived the phone in the first place | 19:07 |
| honestly | I think you were there for most of it, a week ago or so | 19:08 |
| freemangordon | honestly: by following the wiki procedure ? | 19:08 |
| honestly | yes | 19:08 |
| freemangordon | oh, I remember now | 19:08 |
| honestly | flashing vanilla first, and then flashing PR1.3 over it immediately | 19:08 |
| freemangordon | yeah | 19:08 |
| freemangordon | so, what happened? | 19:08 |
| honestly | well I let it sit turned off for a few days | 19:09 |
| honestly | turned it on again today and only got to the "flashing lights forever" again | 19:09 |
| freemangordon | hmm, wasn't your NAND faulty, not emmc? | 19:10 |
| honestly | err | 19:10 |
| honestly | I might be confusing those two? | 19:10 |
| freemangordon | can't remember, sorry | 19:10 |
| honestly | lemme see if I can find the old logs | 19:10 |
| freemangordon | was it you to post dmesg logs? | 19:10 |
| honestly | yeah | 19:11 |
| freemangordon | vi__: what kind of job, EE? | 19:11 |
| freemangordon | IIRC it is your NAND that is broken, not emmc. | 19:11 |
| honestly | http://ix.io/au2 | 19:11 |
| vi__ | freemangordon: yes, EE! | 19:11 |
| vi__ | freemangordon: read your PM. | 19:12 |
| honestly | I think that says it found bad blocks on the NAND | 19:12 |
| freemangordon | vi__: hmm, no PM to read :) | 19:12 |
| vi__ | eh? | 19:13 |
| vi__ | I meant irc /query | 19:13 |
| freemangordon | honestly: try a couple of flashes, that might mark all bad blocks and fix your problems | 19:18 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | and then a lot of the maemo core apps are also not *owned* by Nokia, it seems. Many are developed by subcontractors, and the copyright is unclear | 22:51 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | for second you can try placing a magnet near main camera and move it a bit | 23:26 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | though IMEI isn't as sikrit as everybody thinks it should be | 23:45 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | but ypou could send md5sum of IMEI :-D | 23:46 |
| CR0W | I'll research how sensitive is it tomorrow. Md5sum? OK. | 23:46 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | please add the full set of characters, incl the slashes | 23:48 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | imei=892472489724ß8971ß9871; cat $imei|wc; cat $imei|md5sum | 23:49 |
| CR0W | 32b3d6d57edd4b904e2fabbdf5f8c2f1 | 23:49 |
| CR0W | Slashes? | 23:49 |
| CR0W | This is md5sum of what *#06# returned. | 23:49 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ok, good enough | 23:49 |

| CR0W | Where's the one with slashes? | 23:50 |

| CR0W | I have a question: when the guide says to flash with emmc, then remove battery and place again and flash with fiasco, can I unplug the cable when removing the battery? | 23:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1414689#post1414689 | 23:55 |
