kopplehello everyone, I can use fMMS regularly for both receiving and sending. Still, I can't receive newer smartphones' SMSes if they feature some emoticons00:28
koppleif that matters, during one of my attempts I asked to send me a picture with emoticons inside an MMS and I got a picture with an "smil.xml". It was an Android smartphone00:29
koppleso I'm wondering if newer smartphones comply with an emoticons standard set with an .xml tagging system or something like that00:30
kopplewhat do you think about it?00:30
scottcI'm in no way knowledgeable about this (I use my N900 for games, Jolla as a phone) but googling around, I got this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9492041/android-what-to-do-with-application-smil-mime-type00:31
scottcnot sure if that helps as I'm sure you can google things as well as I can, but just in case you hadn't found it00:32
kopplewell I'm actually looking for information about these newer emoticons sets but I can't seem to find anything useful about it00:35
koppleI think devices became too close-sourced to even care about these things00:35
scottccould it be emoji that you're thinking of?00:35
koppleI'm researching00:37
koppleit's possible yes, but I'm not sure00:37
kopplewhen I get e-mails from Iphones sometimes they include this kind of symbols that are actual font characters in my mail client00:38
scottcthat part sounds like emoji00:39
bencohthere is a thread about that on tmo, an article on thp's website, and a github project00:39
*** reinob has left #maemo00:39
bencoh(now to find the links ... :)00:39
koppleso may be, yes. I'm sure I never get SMSes coming from Windows Mobile phones if they include this sort of characters. I'm trying to realize if Win Mobile features them as plain emoticons while composing a message.00:39
bencohthere you go: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=9402700:39
kopplethat's great bencoh00:39
kopplethanks a lot, I'm reading already00:40
bencoh:)00:40

kopplewhat's Harmoji exactly? A maemo program?00:41
kopplemaybe this fix is more important than we realize for all maemo users.. I'd suggest that it is hightlighted somehow, or linked to in homepage ;)00:42
befordharmoji is harmattan only, no?00:42
koppleI'm waiting for hildon to load.. will never know :D00:43
befordHarmoji is the Harmattan implementation of Emoji. Harmoji enables the viewing of Emoji characters throughout the system, as well as inputting them.00:43
koppleok... not good for maemo00:44
kopplemy hildon isn't up yet .. gosh00:45
befordhildon desktop? or hildon browser?00:45
koppleoh excuse me.. I meant the app. manager00:46
befordoh, right00:46
kopplehttp://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?s=b1bf5cbec6b4c593a28d92a2325b1c60&t=93427&page=200:51
kopplesomeone seems to have a fix for maemo too00:51
koppledo you think this is safe anyway? I don't know..00:56
befordas long as you backup the file00:56
befordI'd say it's safe00:57
kopplemmm.. ok. I need a real backup solution first00:57
kopplemay I ask if you know a good backup software for maemo?00:57
befordthere are instruction on that post to backup the file that needs patching00:58
kopplesms, contacts book, /home/user directory is easily copied via USB00:58
beford!backupmenu00:58
beford~backupmenu00:58
infobot_i guess backupmenu is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=6397500:58
koppleI looked into backupmenu but it looks scary, I still fear I won't be able to flash again because of the U key that is needed for backupmenu if I recall right01:00
koppleso I would install it after backing up the things I wrote before, than save a whole copy of my OS with backupmenu tight after01:00
koppleright* after01:00
kopplethen enable emojis, work awaits :D01:00
befordyea, well I wouldn't use backup menu just to patch that file01:01
befordI don't think it's that necesarry01:01
kopplesounds ok01:01
*** lobito has joined #maemo01:01
koppleare SMSes and phonebook located somewhere within the /home/user/ directory?01:01
koppleso that if I compress it all they're included?01:02
kopplewell, the built-in backup will save my SMS and phonebook indeed,  I will just lose the MMSes01:04
kopplemmm.. not the phonebook :\01:05
lobitoI'd like to know, too. Where are SMSs stored?01:05
beford /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db01:05
befordsqlite db01:05
*** Natch has quit IRC01:06
kopple.rtcom-messaging-ui/draft.db may contain email drafts?01:07
koppleit would be nice to explore that db ;) anyway. I have one called el-v1.db01:09
*** antranigv has left #maemo01:10
*** Natch has joined #maemo01:10
OksanaYes, that holds SMS messages and phone call history?01:13
*** ArGGu^^ has joined #maemo01:13
kopplegreat01:14
bencohkopple: what's wrong with your U key ?01:14
koppleOksana, do you happen to know where the phonebook database is stored instead?01:14
OksanaContacts?01:15
kopplebencoh when flashing last time I had to press U to enable the USB data transmission at boot-time01:15
koppleOksana, yes01:15
OksanaI remember that there is a specific folder with images-of-contacts, crop-sized to proper dimensions...01:15
OksanaWith each image being a separate file01:16
* Oksana dives into X Terminal...01:16
kopple:)01:16

kopplethere's no better thing than manual backup :)01:18
*** arcean_ has quit IRC01:25
kopplefor the record, I found a copy of /home/user/.osso-abook/ called .osso-abook-backup also inside the official Backup Application output when including communications logs and calendar entries01:26
koppleit's not clear that it contains your contact list as well, but it does01:27
*** LauRoman|Alt has quit IRC01:29
*** xorly has quit IRC01:31
OksanaBy the way, when you put human's birthday into abook, is it possible to specify: 1. Timezone; 2. birthtime? Yes, odd question...01:40
OksanaAnd even odder one: is it possible to add death-day for a human into abook? Like, a human you knew, died. You do not wish to erase him, but you do not wish to keep calling a dead-man, either...01:41
bencoh:]01:44
kopplesounds like .. mocking. Isn't it?02:03
*** bef0rd has quit IRC02:17
OksanaNo, it isn't. Mocking, it isn't. Also, I would like to have country-of-residence of a contact displayed prominently, and used somehow. For example, there should be a mechanism for checking that phone-numbers are "valid" (correspond to country) so that if you do try to call them from abroad (for whatever reason), the phone would have already pre-pended the correct telephone code?02:22
kopple:)02:23
OksanaAlso, last-first name fields assume that Contact is always Human. What about Company as contact - what has to be entered as First-Last names?02:23
OksanaA map with locations of all contacts would be handy. Especially if it could include live location from those of contacts who allow you to see their location...02:24
OksanaBut that's already out of scope of Address Book. It's more like a mapplet, tightly integrated with ABook and Clock...02:25
* Oksana wonders if there are any recent time-zone changes which need to be integrated into Maemo 5 time-zone-table, and if they were integrated properly already...02:27

kopple1) id -> uid=0 (root) 2) ./patcher -> /bin/sh: ./patcher: Permission denied03:13
kopple3) sudo ./patcher -> user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.03:13
koppleI admit I don't have any experience with patching things at all, but what about this?03:15
OksanaNot sure what is patcher?03:15
* Oksana would have used sudo gainroot, instead of sudo ./patcher ...03:15
koppleit should be an executable from a tar03:15
koppleI did to gain root permission03:15
kopplesudo gainroot and then all the rest following03:15
OksanaIf you have rootsh package installed (recommended), you use sudo gainroot to gain root03:16
koppleI was following this guide http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?s=b1bf5cbec6b4c593a28d92a2325b1c60&t=93427&page=2 and I used rootsh03:16
OksanaThen, you enter commands, like ./patcher , in separate lines03:16
koppleno longer using sudo? I did..03:17
Oksanahttp://wiki.maemo.org/Root_access#rootsh03:17
kopple./patcher /usr/lib/libsms-utils.so.0.0.0 libemojitils.so.003:17
kopplethanks03:18
koppleI'm trying again03:18
koppleI still get sh: ./patcher: Permission denied03:19
OksanaIs it in MyDocs?03:20
koppleyes03:20
OksanaMyDocs filesystem does not have executable privileges03:20
OksanaFat, and all that...03:20
OksanaMove it to /home/user/something/ , or whatever...03:20
koppleoh god :( What if I hadn't asked you... file systems has execution implications?03:21
kopplethanks03:21
OksanaIf you really want to use sudo, keep in mind to not ever run visudo: The 'correct' way to add yourself to sudoers on Maemo 5 would be to put your entry in a file in /etc/sudoers.d/03:22
kopplethanks, but I still get the Permission denied error when moving that folder to /home/user03:24
OksanaLike: don't forget to copy your python files to /opt on N900. If you copy to Mydocs directory you will not be able to change the permissions to Linux execute permissions as Mydocs is a FAT file system, it does not understand permissions.03:24
OksanaWhen the file(s) is-are in /home/user/, then you can use chmod +x filename to make it executable03:24
* Oksana is glad that you have the files neat in one folder03:25
kopplelet me try03:25
OksanaDoes chmod +x ./patcher work?03:25
koppleit. does.03:26

koppleOksana, in your opinion all these things I ignore can be better achieved by studying UNIX systems or Linux precisely? I need some theory03:34
*** Maxdamantus has joined #maemo03:59
Oksanakopple: I would recommend you to start with Unix. Because Unix-like systems include: Linux, BSD, GNU, Solaris, OpenDarwin...04:29
OksanaThere is even Plan 9 from Bell Labs, but it's post-Unix, not intended to be completely compatible with pre-existing Unix04:30

_p4xI'm trying to open up my n900 to see if the the screen cables are fine and the last screw is too tight (this one http://a.pomf.se/xnynff.jpg) , and it's wearing out from all the trying. What can I try?08:29
*** VDVsx has joined #maemo08:30
*** VDVsx has quit IRC08:32
Vajbif u can't open it ur only option is to carefully drill the tip of and remove it with pliers08:32
*** VDVsx_ has joined #maemo08:32
Vajbhmm maybe put the screwdriver on screw and give a gentle tap of a hammer...08:34
_p4xto break the screw? sounds more dangerous than the drill08:36
Vajbnot to break, but to "shake" it a bit. For sure safer than drill, if u don't use 5kg sledgehammer...08:42
_p4xI just tried, didn't loosen it08:46
_p4xmaybe drilling it slowly with a screwdriver would do08:46
_p4xbut than wouldn't unscrew it, just behead it08:49
Vajbyeah08:49
Vajbso no use08:49
Vajbi guess best solution is to drill head off, to be able to remove those pieces and then use pliers and hopefully get rest of the screw off. Otherwise ur fckd with it...08:50
