DocScrutinizer05hdparm -I </phy/name>15:25
DocScrutinizer05smartctl --all /dev/sda15:27
DocScrutinizer05maybe smartctl -i /dev/sda15:29

DocScrutinizer05luf: you got your account?17:01
lufDocScrutinizer05: yes. thanks.17:01
lufI didn't assign the task as I want to do once by once. Not all tasks at one time.17:03
DocScrutinizer05no lshw on my PC17:03
lufDocScrutinizer05: let's install it ;)17:03
DocScrutinizer05must be a buntkuh thing17:04
DocScrutinizer05;-P17:04
DocScrutinizer05merlin1991: you seen my semi-honest rant about "blacklisting" rogue pkgs?17:05
DocScrutinizer05over at #maemo17:05
DocScrutinizer05[2012-09-02 02:03:11] * DocScrutinizer05 honestly ponders to integrate a malware filter to CSSU. First candidates to nuke form device and HAM list of available apps: batterypatch and speedpatch [2012-09-02 02:03:19] <DocScrutinizer05> and fapman [2012-09-02 02:03:23] <DocScrutinizer05> ;-P [2012-09-02 02:04:33] <DocScrutinizer05> meh, waaay simpler: get dummy void packages of same name into CSSU MP17:06
kerioDocScrutinizer05: with a really high version, you mean?17:23
keriobtw, does uninstalling for those work?17:23
DocScrutinizer05kerio: yep17:24
DocScrutinizer05(for first Q)17:24
DocScrutinizer05kerio: NFC if you could properly uninstall this *patch abominations17:25
DocScrutinizer05I'd rather guess you can't17:25
DocScrutinizer05s/this/these/.17:26
keriogoddammit, where's pali17:38
kerioi want to know how ke-recv is supposed to work17:39
DocScrutinizer05hehe17:42
DocScrutinizer05you're not alone17:42
DocScrutinizer05maybe reading source could help? ;-)17:43
kerioi hoped for a bbscript17:43
DocScrutinizer05bitbake receipe?17:43
DocScrutinizer05eeew17:43
keriobusybox script17:44
DocScrutinizer05ouch17:44
kerio"shell" is too much for that crap17:44
DocScrutinizer05ak, I'm fine with that17:44
DocScrutinizer05ok*17:44
DocScrutinizer05;-)17:45
kerioalso, i hope pali made his changes configurable17:45
kerioi don't want to export my whole sd when i tap "mass storage mode"17:45
DocScrutinizer05I doubt there's much configurability in ke-recv17:45
kerio(also, how do i trigger the automounter manually?)17:45
DocScrutinizer05ke-recv-test ?17:45
keriohm, there's nothing *that* specific17:46
DocScrutinizer05m - enable USB mass storage17:46
keriohm, maybe e - check device <arg>17:46
DocScrutinizer05or that17:46
DocScrutinizer05cb - close battery cover signal17:47
DocScrutinizer05will obviously automount the uSD17:47
kerionope!17:47
keriodoesn't work17:47
DocScrutinizer05unless ke-recv-test is to fake signals *from* ke-recv *to* other subsystems17:47
keriofdisk /dev/mmcblk1 and then w works, though17:48
DocScrutinizer05which again is as obscure as ke-recv itself17:48
keriooh no, doesn't17:48
keriobecause i'm actually using the usd17:48
kerio:S17:48
DocScrutinizer05http://gitorious.org/community-ssu/ke-recv/trees/master17:50
DocScrutinizer05for your "convenience"17:50
kerioso far the only way i've found is to use fdisk or similar to trigger the automounter17:52
keriobut it only works if you're not using the uSD at all17:52
DocScrutinizer05haha for http://gitorious.org/community-ssu/ke-recv/blobs/master/src/ke-recv.schemas#line7217:55
DocScrutinizer05gitorious html formatter doesn't like the <cr> in there, I wonder if it's otherwise harmless17:56

merlin1991well my main question was about rtcom-logger-async, where does the code come from, does it affect other packages aswell, ...18:07
merlin1991since the obexd update would require it18:07

illuminataso i got that nasty auto-reboot bug. just cropped up a couple/few days ago18:59
illuminatagonna try to go ssu, hope it doesn't boot me out19:00
illuminataseems ok enough when i'm actively using an app. yet again i was just actively using the app manager and it rebooted so19:00
kerioauto-reboot bug? :o19:02
illuminatayeah. it sucks bad. icons/carrier name can't stay drawn on the home screen. they disappear. keeps cycling. after a few minutes the phone reboots19:03
keriowhat did you install, exactly?19:04
keriosounds like a dsme reboot19:04
illuminatanothing for months really19:04
keriowell something broke somewhere and dsme gets tired of respawning it so it reboots your phone19:05
illuminatai tried uninstalling omweather, didn't see if i could uninstall rss. those don't draw at all19:05
kerioso... hildon-home problem19:05
illuminatai figured it was something like that but wasn't sure on the specifics19:05
keriotry deleting the config files for that19:05
kerioand by deleting i mean moving somewhere else19:05
illuminatahmm, will try19:05
*** bsdmaniak has joined #maemo-ssu19:06
kerioilluminata: were you on some flavour of cssu?19:06
keriomaybe thumb?19:07
illuminatanope, just 1.3.119:07
keriobut without the appropriate kernel19:07
keriohm19:07
keriodid you overclock?19:07
illuminatanah19:07
illuminatai mean i really don't do much with this phone short of calls and irc19:07
kerioanyway, you could enable rd mode19:08
kerioand disable the watchdog19:08
kerio(this can be done with flasher)19:08
kerio(well, it must be done with flasher, really)19:08
illuminatawill it work with any flavor of the flasher? because i might have to boot up my linux laptop as i'm in a 64 bit windows environment now19:09
kerio\_o_/19:10
illuminatathat's either a shrug or a muscle flex19:10
kerioyes19:11
*** fruct has joined #maemo-ssu19:27
fructHello All. I'm start community-ssu-enabler, and my device is unusable now! Please help me!19:28
DocScrutinizer05first clean / rename your hildon-desktop related config files like suggested by kerio19:28
keriofruct: which one?19:28
DocScrutinizer05fruct: there's a pretty clear and non-interpretable instruction on how to enable CSSU, on19:29
DocScrutinizer05~cssu19:29
infobotrumour has it, cssu is http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU19:29
fructkerio: the stable version19:29
DocScrutinizer05did you follow that?19:29
DocScrutinizer05actually http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU#Installation19:30
* DocScrutinizer05 starts to think there's some weird package named cssu-enabler out there, free to install by user any arbitrary (fapman, apt) way he feels might fit19:32
keriohe said community-ssu-enabler19:32
fructI did do backup =(19:32
fructI'm before install power kernel and enchanced busybox19:32
keriofruct: what do you mean by "unusable"?19:32
DocScrutinizer05fruct: there's no support for any other way to install CSSU, other than the one described at http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU#Installation19:34
DocScrutinizer05and actually no other way usually works19:34
fructthe icons and status bar moved to upper left corner and desktop not switch and dont enable edit mode19:34
DocScrutinizer05(unless your name is kerio and you love to mess with stuff)19:34
kerio=D19:34
kerioDocScrutinizer05: hey, i did follow the instruction for cssu-te19:34
kerioand then i realized that HAM is stupid19:35
DocScrutinizer05wasn't it you who refused to use HAM?19:35
kerioyeah but the first installation used community-ssu-enabler19:35
kerioi mean, followed the whole instructions19:35
DocScrutinizer05mhm19:35
DocScrutinizer05so maybe we'll eventually find out if fruct did as well?19:36
kerioby the way, does community-ssu-enabler mark the maemo5 packages for manual installation? because autoremove works fine19:36
kerioi mean, it doesn't autoremove stuff that it shouldn't, for me19:36
DocScrutinizer05then you're lucky19:36
DocScrutinizer05for me it did ever since PR1.0.119:36
keriodid you upgrade from pr 1.0.1?19:37
DocScrutinizer05no, from PR1.019:37
keriowow19:37
DocScrutinizer05tp PR1.0.1, to Pr1.1...19:37
kerionever reflashed? neat19:37
DocScrutinizer05never reflashed19:37
DocScrutinizer05iirc19:37
keriothere was a dude that installed dos 6 in a VM19:38
DocScrutinizer05and that's what makes the big difference for autoremove19:38
kerioand then started upgrading windows, from 1 to 719:38
kerioDocScrutinizer05: you could just mark those package manual19:38
keriowith apt-mark19:38
kerio*packages19:38
DocScrutinizer05fruct: we (well I at least) still didn't get what exactly you did19:39
DocScrutinizer05unless your problem is with installation as described in http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU#Installation, I'd suggest you reflash to clean PR1.3, then follow http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU#Installation19:40
DocScrutinizer05*IF* your problem actually was during following instructions of http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU#Installation, we'd like to hear details though, to fix any glitches in either cssu-enabler or instructions19:42
keriomaybe it was busybox-power! >:D19:43
DocScrutinizer05I tried hard to not comment on it ;-P19:43
illuminatawooooow. re-flashed to nokia firmware. still doing that stupid bug19:43
keriowell i actually had a tiny problem with the busybox-power upgrade19:43
kerioer19:43
DocScrutinizer05illuminata: please elaborate19:44
keriowell, the reinstall19:44
kerioilluminata: please elaborate, but in #maemo19:44
DocScrutinizer05indeed19:44
fructkerio: yes! I install busybox-power!19:44
keriobecause it's clearly not a CSSU problem anymore :)19:44
illuminatawill do. thought i was gonna make progress on that front19:44
keriofruct: i'm kinda joking, it should cause no problems19:44
illuminatawas gonna be like "aw yeah cssu time"19:44
*** luf has joined #maemo-ssu19:49
fructstrange, on loading, first screen - normal and after, desktop becomes not normal19:51
lufmerlin1991: I created rtcom-eventlogger-async from scratch. It's dbus daemon for async calls from obexd for call history and also MAP in near future. It's something like evolution-data-server-factory. Nothing else than obexd depends on rtcom-eventlogger-async. I asked you for creating new git repo for it.19:56
merlin1991ah now I understand what it is :)19:59
merlin1991I'll do the repo19:59
merlin1991it's just, that I darkly remember a package called rtcom-eventlogger, but I don't even know what it does20:01
merlin1991luf: by MAP you mean what?20:02
lufMessage Access P(what is it for?) in obexd. To synchronize also SMS/... with HF.20:03
merlin1991ah okay, map maps to maps/gps/whatever in my head :D20:03
DocScrutinizer05Protocol20:03
lufrtcom-eventlogger is from nokia and it's for accessing the sms, call history etc.20:03
merlin1991is the dbus interface the -async demon exports something that is based on obexd stuff, or more generic?20:05
lufit has two parts. server side and client side (library). Server side is the process what listen on some dbus path and response queries.20:08
merlin1991is it reentrant?20:10
lufThe client part is for easy calling it:20:10
lufgint rtcomel_get_event_async(RTCOMELEventCallback cb, const guint id, const gchar *intcols, const gchar *strcols, gpointer closure)20:10
lufgint rtcomel_get_event_list_async(RTCOMELEventListCallback cb, const gchar *query, const gchar *intcols, const gchar *strcols, const guint offset, const gint limit, gpointer closure)20:10
lufgint rtcomel_get_event_list_count_async(RTCOMELEventListCountCallback cb, const gchar *query, const guint offset, const gint limit, gpointer closure)20:10
lufThis is exported from the client library.20:10
lufmerlin1991: the dbus ensure that only once request is answered at a time in server side.20:13
lufAnd I see nothing on client side what should be problematic in threads.20:14
lufI took an inspiration from eds and DBUS examples on maemo pages :)20:14
kerioby the way, why does cssu have "releases"?20:17
merlin1991so anybody could use the lib?20:21
DocScrutinizer05kerio: that's actually a good question. In fact I'm pushing towards rolling updates since long. We need to get rid of MP as much as possible for that20:27
DocScrutinizer05and sort the dependencies mess20:27
kerioDocScrutinizer05: there's a problem though20:27
kerioHAM can't upgrade non-user, non-metapackage packages20:28
DocScrutinizer05:nod:20:28
keriofuckin HAM20:28
DocScrutinizer05unless they are pulled in as dependency20:28
DocScrutinizer05or you put HAM into red-pill mode, aiui20:29
merlin1991DocScrutinizer05: which is removed from ham since pr1.2 (or 1.3)20:29
DocScrutinizer05ooh, are you 'old enough' to know red-pill?20:29
keriohuh, i am20:30
kerioand i had my first n900 in pr1.220:30
kerio\_o_/20:30
kerioanyway, you also need to tell HAM to show all packages20:30
DocScrutinizer05merlin1991: I thought pali recently re-introdiuced it20:30
keriowhich is what brings the time apt-worker takes to do his things from 4 minutes to 15 minutes, for me20:30

DocScrutinizer05sure, there's exactly one accepted usecase for goto:  goto error (forward)21:58
freemangordonwell, I disagree, as i indeed like it, there are cases when backward goto saves a lot of code. But agree it should be used with caution21:59

freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: Andrew Zabolotny22:02
freemangordonwhoever is that guy22:03
freemangordonkerio: btw what is your question about ke-recv?22:07
keriofreemangordon: "how the hell does it work?"22:07
keriospecifically, how do i trigger the automounter?22:07
kerioke-recv-test e /dev/mmcblk1 didn't work22:07
freemangordonyou don;t need to trigger it manually22:08
freemangordonke-recv-test?22:08
freemangordonwhat FS is mmcblk1?22:08
freemangordonkerio: ^^^22:09
keriommcblk1p1 is vfat22:09
keriommcblk1p2 and mmcblk1p3 are linux swap, but they shouldn't be touched22:09
keriofreemangordon: another question: how do i choose what gets exported in ass rage mode?22:09
freemangordonwell, is it /dev/mmcblk1 or /dev/mmcblk1p1?22:10
*** M13 has quit IRC22:10
keriobecause g_file_storage exports the whole of /dev/mmcblk1, which is kinda bad for me, because i *will* be using the swap in mmcblk1p222:10
keriofreemangordon: neither worked22:10
kerio"ke-recv-test e" should be "check device"22:10
kerionot sure which kind of check22:10
freemangordonkerio: something is broken there, I use swap partition on SD card and have no problem with seeing vfat partition in PC22:11
keriofreemangordon: i see the vfat partition on pc22:11
keriobut i also see the other two22:11
keriowhich is... bad22:11
freemangordonwell, it is not ke-rcv to balme22:12
freemangordon*blame22:12
freemangordonI am not dure what will happen if g_file_storage gets /dev/mmcblk1p1 as backing stoeage22:13
freemangordon*storage22:13
freemangordonWTF is wring with me :(22:13
freemangordonseems there is no way to write without typos today, sorry :)22:14
freemangordonkerio: actually it is logical(and better) to see the whole SD card when connected to PC, not only the first VFAT partition22:16
keriohell naw22:16
freemangordonhell yes22:16
keriomuch like it's awful that the PC sees the whole emmc instead of just mydocs22:16
freemangordonno, it is different, SD card is removable storage22:17
keriowell, not on my system22:17
kerioso22:17
keriohow do i configure this?22:17
freemangordonimagine you want to dd an image to your SD card22:17
freemangordonconfigure what?22:17
kerioconfigure what gets exported in MSM22:18
DocScrutinizer05I friggin wonder how swap might be used when same time it's exported assrage22:18
keriofreemangordon: imagine what happens if something else writes to the swap partition22:18
kerioDocScrutinizer05: kernel magick22:18
DocScrutinizer05aiui ass rage umounts all22:18
freemangordonswap is not mounted aiui22:18
kerioswap does not count as mounted, it's just "in use" in some way by the kernel22:18
kerioDocScrutinizer05: notice that i don't know if the pc can actually write to it22:19
kerioi have good reasons not to try, obviously22:20
freemangordonwell, I wonder what will happen if only the partition (i.e. not MBR) gets exported22:22
freemangordonmost probably a mess22:22
keriofreemangordon: huh?22:28
keriowhy?22:28
kerioit's the same as MyDocs22:28
kerioit's not a fake MBR, it's just a single partition22:29
freemangordonyeah, might be I am wrong.22:29
kerioit's a bit weird, but not too much22:29
DocScrutinizer05I actually thought uSD would get exported exactly same way22:30
DocScrutinizer05only first partiton, if more than one exist22:30
kerioi thought so too22:30
DocScrutinizer05dunno why I thought that22:30
freemangordonme too, but it does not make sense, tell me how you are going to use dd, fdisk, etc if only firs VFAT partition is exported22:31
DocScrutinizer05maybe somebody should check on stock freemantle22:31
keriofreemangordon: by... removing the uSD and doing that on a card reader?22:32
freemangordonthe whole device gets exported22:32
freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: ^^^22:32
freemangordonno change here22:32
keriobesides, you need the appropriate ioctl() call to make the kernel reread the partition table22:32
kerioso you can't fdisk properly anyway22:32
DocScrutinizer05well, does a plain partiton export differ from a whole device export when the whole device is formatted superfloppy?22:33
freemangordonkerio: you can force partition table re-read by simply removing the backcover22:33
kerio...22:33
kerioSO GET THE CARD OUT AND USE A CARD READER22:33
kerioffs22:33
freemangordonkerio: well, I don't have card reader, but have 2 n900s :P22:34
freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: there is no change to the behaviour compared to stock22:34
DocScrutinizer05checked?22:34
freemangordonI am using swap on uSD for 2 years or so. Partitioned through PC22:35
DocScrutinizer05hmm, fair enough22:35
keriofreemangordon: and you open your backcover like that?22:35
kerio:s22:35
DocScrutinizer05kerio: "opening backover" might work via ke-recv-test22:36
freemangordonkerio: the use cases for exporting the whole device are much wider than exporting a single VFAT partition only. for example you may have one vfat visible in every OS, and one EXTx, visible in linux22:37
keriofreemangordon: that's why i asked for a way to configure it22:37
DocScrutinizer05damn, I looked into precisely all that some 6..12 months ago, can't recall a single detail22:37
freemangordonhow the hell you will copy data to that EXTx partition? through wireless?22:37
MrPinguRemoving backover is insta-reboot because swap got unmounted22:37
kerioMrPingu: not quite instant22:37
freemangordonMrPingu: only if active22:37
DocScrutinizer05hehe22:38
MrPinguWhile I don't have swap on eMMC enabled ;p22:38
keriofreemangordon: sshfs/nfs/whateverfs over usb networking, for instance22:38
freemangordonkerio: you are aware USB networking is 1.1?22:38
DocScrutinizer05wait, there been some syscall to make kernel re-read partition table?22:38
keriofreemangordon: usb networking is what?22:39
freemangordonsfdisk -R or something22:39
freemangordonkerio: USB 1.122:39
kerioDocScrutinizer05: sure, the thing fdisk does when you write22:39
keriofreemangordon: o rly22:39
freemangordonafaik22:39
DocScrutinizer05wut?22:39
freemangordonit is not USB 2.022:39
freemangordontry it22:39
DocScrutinizer05FFS22:39
kerioi distinctly remember getting a fuckload of MB/s22:40
keriobesides, g_ether is better anyway22:40
freemangordonssh?22:40

keriohrmpf, i can't retest now22:40
keriobecause otherwise i'd lose VDQ22:40
DocScrutinizer05well, I got some 12..14MB/s which is way beyond the max of 12Mb/s of usb1.122:41
freemangordonwell, AFAIK g_ether is not USB 2.022:41
keriothen maybe g_nokia is better22:41
DocScrutinizer05in ass rage mode22:41
freemangordong_noika is 2.0 AFAIK22:41
kerioi wonder if pali's patch to automatically enable usb networking in pc suite mode is already in -devel22:41
keriofreemangordon: then use g_nokia22:41
keriono biggie22:41
freemangordonkerio: under XP?22:41
keriono, we're trying to write to an ext3 partition22:42
kerioso linux :)22:42
freemangordonbut it is not exported anywa, so it does not matter22:42
freemangordon:P22:42
keriothere's nothing exported, we're trying to work around it22:42
*** MrPingu has quit IRC22:42
freemangordonwhatever22:42
freemangordonthe way it is now, is compatible with all of the OSes around, in HS mode22:43
kerionope22:43
kerioi can't write to an ext3 partition from xp22:43
freemangordonare you sure?22:43
kerioif we allow using third-party software then there's no reason usb networking via g_nokia shouldn't be allowed too22:44
freemangordonkerio: I am missing your point, really. You want us to remove functionality because you have some special use case?22:45
kerioI WANT IT TO BE CONFIGURABLE SO I CAN CHANGE IT FROM THE DEFAULT WHICH IS HOW IT IS AND HOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN TO BETTER FIT MY NEEDS22:45
freemangordonThe functionality tha exists in stock fremantle22:45
freemangordonthen file a bug dammit22:45
freemangordonand stop shouting, ok?22:46
kerioOK, FRIEND!22:46
freemangordonseems your capslock has stuck22:46

freemangordonno, the place to file a bug is on the bugtracker ;)22:48
kerioi'll just wait for pali22:52
keriohe's much nicer to me :c22:52
keriooh pali, where art thou22:53
freemangordonhe has exams, so don't hold your breath :P22:53
keriopff, lack of commitment22:54
kerioi have two exams this month22:54

DocScrutinizer05so I would've no internet on laptop when connecting to N900 via USB networking. Unbearable23:11
keriowat23:13
keriowhy?23:13
DocScrutinizer05as soon as I activate PC suite mode, knetworkmanager grabs it and I can't manually config it any more23:15
DocScrutinizer05alas knetworkmanager handles it as NIC23:15
DocScrutinizer05or rather usb-modem23:15
keriohahahahahahah23:16
keriotry g_ether then23:16
DocScrutinizer05indeed23:16
keriobesides, the usb network card is a separate thing23:16
DocScrutinizer05maybe, but it already conflicts with normal network connectivity on KDE23:17
keriodamn, kde sucks23:17
DocScrutinizer05well, currently knetworkmanager thinks there's NO NIC at all, so maybe worth another try, since the NIC this text is traveling over should be invisible and thus unaffected23:18
keriooh lol23:18
DocScrutinizer05I probably been fed up and configured it as "on-boot" and "manual config"23:18

dimirRecently GSM module on my n900 stopped working.23:35
dimirIt throws the message "All telephony functions, including emergency calls, are disabled due to a communication error. To recover, you might have to reboot the device."23:36
dimirThe well-known error.23:36
keriowell, have you tried to reboot the device?23:37
dimirSo at first it was appearing once a day or something, reboot was fixing that.23:37
kerio:)23:37
dimirIt then started to happen more and more often until recently reboots stopped helping completely.23:37
keriodimir: btw, why is this related to CSSU?23:37
dimirI have followed the threads on maemo forum, like this one: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=6088123:37
DocScrutinizer05hmm, yeah. fatal :.{23:37
freemangordonmaybe he has a solution and wants to share it23:38
dimirNop.e23:38
dimirdamn.23:38
kerio:c23:38
dimirThe thread suggests some reflashing otherwise it's h/w problem.23:38
dimirBut it seems there were lots of people having such problem.23:38
dimirThe thread is of year 2009 though.23:38
DocScrutinizer05most common fatal hw defect23:38
dimirI was wondering if you know of recent solutions, or things that might be causing this.23:39
dimirOr maybe this is known to be fixed in recent images.23:39
dimiroh man.23:39
dimirI so hope it's not h/w.23:39
dimirI'm already using CSSU btw.23:39
DocScrutinizer05seems there's been the typical bathtub curve for many early failures then after a few years of 'silence' slow increase of same problem again23:39
dimirAh man.23:40
dimirBut I just wanted to consult here before I go for a reflash.23:40
dimirI mean, it seems there are some reports that reflashing in this kind of state of the phone bricks it.23:41
dimirIt's functional properly, all except the GSM module.23:41
dimirI mean, wi-fi, etc. all works properly.23:41
DocScrutinizer05seems a chip or soldering problem with modem itself23:42
DocScrutinizer05some users even can make it come and go by pressing a particular key on hw kbd23:42
dimirSo, perhaps taking it to the service could be a good idea?23:42
dimirRight.23:43
DocScrutinizer05reflow soldering the modem chip *might* help23:43
dimirCould be a soldering problem, that'd explain why the problem was first occasional and then going more and more often.23:43
DocScrutinizer05yep, soldering or bonding23:43
dimirI just am too afraid to do that myself. :-D23:43
kerionokia don't care23:44
kerionokia don't give a fuck23:44
DocScrutinizer05better let it do somebody with proper hot air reflow workstation23:44

keriothey'll give you a lumia 90023:44
kerioi mean, the number is the same!23:44
kerioor maybe a n823:44
keriowhich you can sell to buy another n900 on ebay23:44

dimirkerio: :-D23:45
DocScrutinizer05nobody can bond23:45

DocScrutinizer05~wiki reflow23:46
infobotAt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflow (URL), Wikipedia explains: "{{refimprove|date=December 2010}} 'Reflow soldering' is a process in which a solder paste (a sticky mixture of powdered solder and flux) is used to temporarily attach one or several electrical components to their contact pads, after which the entire assembly is subjected to controlled heat, which melts the solder, permanently connecting the joint. Heating may be accomplished by passing ...23:46
kerioi see23:46
DocScrutinizer05hot air reflow in this case23:47
DocScrutinizer05needs quite some experience to do it right23:47
DocScrutinizer05and the proper tools23:47
dimirYou mean this can be done at home?23:48
DocScrutinizer05not really, unless you got a SMT rework station aka hot air / IR reflow soldering station23:48
DocScrutinizer05some freaks try it in oven23:48
DocScrutinizer05but it usually kills the whole device23:49
kerioit works with x360s!23:49
DocScrutinizer05you need proper temperature to +/-5°C23:49
dimiryeah.23:50
dimirThanks for the info!23:50
DocScrutinizer05and even then it's not really guaranteed a completely assembled PCB will survive reflow23:50
dimirI wonder though, if there is a scheme of the pcb available?23:50
DocScrutinizer05sure23:50
DocScrutinizer05:-)23:50
