Siceloanother 'problem' i'm having (not sure if it's consistent) is that sometimes mediaplayer (stock or OMP) will not adjust volume on press of rocker keys. however this is also not hardware issue, as at that same time, it is possible for me to zoom in/out in browser with the same keys08:27
Sicelofor the volume, nothing at all shows up in dbus-monitor08:28

Sicelook. --log-level debug for pulseaudio still indicates that all is "well"09:33
Sicelomaybe i have to just consider it a HW problem after all. but still weird that restarting pulseaudio 'seems' to work.09:37

L29Ahi have a quite used jack hole in my n90012:48
L29Ahso when i'm running it loses connection sometimes and n900 detects jack unplugging and replugging12:49
L29Ahand so my player (omp) pauses and resumes the sound12:49
L29Ahbut sometimes maemo detects the replugging (the headphones symbol appear in the tray), but the player won't resume playing the track12:49
L29Ahand i have to do it manually12:50
L29Ahis this fixable?12:50
OksanaaSolution: replace jack port? No soldering needed, afaik. Just proper screwdrivers12:50
L29Ah// replacement jack is on my way, but it'll take several weeks to reach me12:50
Siceloget jack from dead n900?12:50
Siceloah12:50
L29Ahand an used-to-be-n900er friend said there's a software solution12:50
*** Oksanaa has quit IRC12:51
Sicelotell omp not to pause too :)12:51
L29Ahbut i want it to pause when i actually unplug it :]12:51
L29Ahbtw it's awesome that replacement n900 parts are still widely available12:52
Siceloin your part of the world :(12:52
L29Ahebay.com12:53
L29Ahbtw as rouble rushes down used and working n900's start from $27 in .ru market ;]12:54

Sicelojust hope for my earpiece problem i don't have flex ribbon issue :(13:24
Sicelothat would be difficult to replace here (where N900 is extinct, and was hardly known)13:25

Sicelook.. definitely flex cable issue. exchanged flex board only with my 2nd N900, and it's working fine. meaning it's time to find flex ribbon :(14:21
*** Vajb has joined #maemo14:28
*** Dynamit has joined #maemo14:34
Siceloriddle me this: why is it that with flaky flex ribbon, adjusting volume in media player using volume  rocker does not work. fix ribbon, and it works again?14:35

infobotfixribbon is, like, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1324171#post132417114:39
sixwheeledbeastah14:40
Sicelohow much did that cost?14:42
sixwheeledbeastcan't remember and link seems dead14:44
Sicelofunny thing is that this bad flex is working 'fine' on the other N900.14:46
L29Ahmaybe the connector pins were covered in oxides and you incidentally removed them14:51
L29Ahs/in/by/14:51
infobotL29Ah meant: maybe the connector pbys were covered in oxides and you incidentally removed them14:51
L29Ahinfobot: :*14:51
Sicelono. i took the whole thing out earlier (when you were talking about your jack problem). made no difference. actually i didn't want to change them around because 2nd N900 metal pieces aren't as nice as my 'originalm one14:53
Siceloflex almost 3x as expensive this side as what i see on ebay :(14:55
*** parazyd has joined #maemo14:57
parazydi've formatted MyDocs to ext4, however, now when mounting it back i'm getting:14:58
parazydmount: mounting /dev/mmcblk0p1 on /home/user/MyDocs/ failed: Invalid argument14:58
parazydthere's no entry in the fstab14:58
L29Ahanything fun in dmesg?14:58

parazydlet me try ext3 then?14:59
L29Ahmount -t ext415:00
L29Ah?15:00
parazyddidn't do the thing15:01
parazydeven a fstab entry15:01
parazydhold on, i'm formatting to ext315:01
*** FlameReaper-PC has joined #maemo15:01
parazydwent thru with ext3 it seems15:03
parazydnot sure i even want to know why15:03
*** Vajb has quit IRC15:05
Sicelohmm, now lock switch not working on 2nd N900 (with 'bad' flex) :/15:06
*** Vajb has joined #maemo15:07
bencohhmm ... how is lockswitch related to flex?15:09
Siceloi don't know. i don't even know if that's the cause.15:11
Siceloi do know however that flex on N900 can affect stuff which you'd hardly expect it to. anyway, i'll reopen this N900 and see if I didn't make some other mistake15:12
Sicelobencoh: flex seems to have mysteriously causes volume rocker not to work only in media player, but still worked in browser. riddle me that :(15:13
bencohI dunno what flex is used for, so ...15:13
Siceloconnects 'top' components of N900 to the 'bottom' ones15:14
Sicelobut volume rocker is part of motherboard. doesn't make sense at all (to me)15:14
bencohyou said you had issues with earpiece as well?15:15
bencoh(or with phone speaker?)15:16
Siceloyes. that's what i 'fiexed' now by changing flex. automagically volume rocker works fine too15:16
bencohwhat happens if you plug earphones to jack outpu?15:18
*** eijk has joined #maemo15:18
Sicelowas working perfect. even loudspeaker worked fine15:18
bencohno I mean, when volume rocker "does not work"15:19
Sicelonothing. no volume change whatsoever15:19
Sicelobut you could zoom with rocker in browser for example. no issues :p15:20

Siceloanyway, for now i'm happy to have non-working lockswitch when everything else works. 2nd N900 now has 3 problems .. lockswitch issue, possibly dead sd card sensor, and failure to detect earphones (except nokia original headset)15:28
Sicelowill reflash it first to see if the earphone problem doesn't get resolved.15:28

KotCzarnyi wonder why it says 'fake camera'22:30
Sicelopossibly the front camera22:30
KotCzarnyfree shipping to south africa22:31
Sicelosomething 'funny' with that one .. the RGB led .. what's going on there22:33
KotCzarnywhere?22:33
Sicelothe one you linked22:33
KotCzarnyone has to double check if its really for n90022:34
Sicelothe overall shape checks out, but i think this is really fake as they say :)22:34
KotCzarny:)22:35
SiceloDocScrutinizer05: do you think the one you linked would have 'good' RGB LED?22:35
KotCzarnyfunnily enough, local auction site sells the flex for ~20usd22:39

KotCzarny:)22:41
*** infobot has quit IRC22:41
Siceloi'll make decision as time goes .. i think it's smarter to look for other N900 :)22:42
KotCzarnyyeah, this one should work fine as a testing ground device22:42
*** FIQ has quit IRC22:43
*** FIQ has joined #maemo22:44
Siceloat least my main N900 working good now. and even this 'bad' one is fine (with only the 3 problems - earphone, sd card, and earpiece). everything else works good22:46
KotCzarnybtw. sd card not working but camera button/slider wokrs?22:47
Siceloyrd22:49
Siceloyes22:49
Siceloi think the Hall chip is fried .. it's not a bad cover (as the cover works good on my other N900)22:49
KotCzarnyuhum22:50
Siceloreflash may help .. don't now. just still need to backup my stuff22:51
KotCzarnybackup whole emmc to pc?22:52
Sicelojust a few bits that i need. i don't have a lot on it (secondary device) .. but if sd card works, i'll install proper debian with newer kernel :)22:55
