| 08:38.24 | DocScrutinizer05 | yes |

| 08:39.13 | DocScrutinizer05 | I seen cmt go X-[ for just a fsckdup entry in SMS |
| 08:39.25 | vi__ | the card contacts were worn through. |
| 08:39.32 | vi__ | Which I found surprising. |
| 08:39.39 | DocScrutinizer05 | modem goes down and doesn't come back before you remove battery |
| 08:39.43 | vi__ | CMT cannot be that bad surely? |
| 08:39.52 | vi__ | aah. non permanent. |
| 08:40.29 | rikanee | vi__: SIM cards… age? |
| 08:40.29 | DocScrutinizer05 | or was it a wrecked contact entry? can't recall |
| 08:41.05 | DocScrutinizer05 | anyway deleting all data from the SIM in another phone resurrected everything |
| 08:42.43 | DocScrutinizer05 | I also can't recall if that's been BB5 or calypso modem |
| 08:43.23 | DocScrutinizer05 | given the bizarre nature of the "defect" I'd bet on calyso though |
| 08:44.10 | DocScrutinizer05 | but honestly borked SIM doesn't surprise me |
| 08:44.56 | DocScrutinizer05 | it's rather the first thing I rule out when any cell connectivity issue |
| 08:45.40 | vi__ | rikanee: Obviously. But it is surprising to see worn out contacts on a part that is never moved. |
| 08:45.55 | DocScrutinizer05 | and it doesn't help to test the suspicious SIM in another phone, since that other phone might have different VDD, clock, driver strength, whatnot else, for that SIM |
| 08:46.17 | rikanee | vi__: mmm. Might motivate me to finally ask my carrier to give me a new SIM. |
| 08:46.44 | rikanee | It's probably 6 years old by now. |
| 08:47.40 | DocScrutinizer05 | if you got a type-1 SIM still, you might consider cloning it before you nuke it by asking your carrier for a replacement (which would place the old SIM on the "obsolete" list) |
| 08:48.21 | DocScrutinizer05 | 6 year old might almost give you a lucky type1 card ;-) |

| 19:46.36 | parahumanoid | ok, I'm in r&d now, let me exit and start over, just to make sure the sequence is right. |
| 19:47.36 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: "flasher-3.5.exe --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset -R" |
| 19:48.11 | Sicelo | CutMeOwnThroat: they did 'move' .. but as far as your device is concerned, they didn't move ;) |
| 19:48.27 | Sicelo | and yes, the cert is expired. |

| 19:48.48 | freemangordon | s/what/which/ |
| 19:49.00 | parahumanoid | nope |
| 19:49.22 | freemangordon | do you have an yellow banner with "application ... closed"? |
| 19:49.48 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: however, lets do ^^^ |
| 19:51.13 | CutMeOwnThroat | Sicelo, yeah... is that fix in the package modest or somewhere else? says modest is already the newest version... |
| 19:51.56 | CutMeOwnThroat | bah.. I was kinda ignoring that it's a computer and treated it as a phone :-/ |
| 19:53.02 | Sicelo | ask freemangordon :P |
| 19:53.14 | freemangordon | Sicelo: hmm? |
| 19:53.14 | parahumanoid | No, no banner. I have a different problem though. I did this: |
| 19:53.17 | parahumanoid | ./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-omap-wd ./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-ext-wd |
| 19:53.24 | Sicelo | at least in both CSSU.. it is fixed. don't know about stock |
| 19:53.44 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: do "flasher-3.5.exe --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset -R" |
| 19:53.53 | parahumanoid | and now it shows a unit with a wrench under the Nokia logo and I can't get it to be seen by the flasher. |
| 19:54.11 | parahumanoid | I typed what you said, but it keeps waiting for a suitable device. |
| 19:54.17 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: do you know on what kernel did you have installed? |
| 19:54.41 | freemangordon | Sicelo: what is fixed? |
| 19:54.47 | freemangordon | modest gmail? |
| 19:55.22 | CutMeOwnThroat | yeah |
| 19:55.24 | CutMeOwnThroat | apparently |
| 19:56.00 | CutMeOwnThroat | ah, found the thread on talk.maemo.org... t=90399 |
| 19:56.50 | freemangordon | CutMeOwnThroat: the fix is in tinymail package |
| 19:57.32 | freemangordon | CutMeOwnThroat: but I recommend installing CSSU, as upgrading only that package is neither tested nor supported |

| 20:14.19 | parahumanoid | I just missed that. |
| 20:14.28 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: though I doubt that will help him, as his PC OS is XP |
| 20:14.41 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: 23:13 <DocScrutinizer05> freemangordon: http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/usr/local/bin/contact |
| 20:14.45 | DocScrutinizer05 | nfc what's the problem |
| 20:14.59 | freemangordon | python on windows? |
| 20:15.06 | freemangordon | it IS possible, sure |
| 20:15.47 | DocScrutinizer05 | bootloop after BM restore? check your kernel version matching the modules! |
| 20:15.56 | freemangordon | but I guess it will be much faster to restore the device to a working condition than to install msys/cygwin |
| 20:16.10 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: he is almost sure he was on stock |
| 20:16.15 | freemangordon | (kernel) |
| 20:16.27 | DocScrutinizer05 | I am almost sure that's incorrect |
| 20:16.34 | freemangordon | :nod: |
| 20:16.44 | DocScrutinizer05 | check kernel modules in BM tarball! |
| 20:16.45 | parahumanoid | if I recall right, there was a company that made a bunch of providers for windows including php, python, perl and a few more. Besides, I don't mind linux, I can get one up and running on a remote lab machine I use. |
| 20:17.17 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: it is up to you ofc, but trust me, restoring your device will be much easier |
| 20:17.44 | DocScrutinizer05 | indeed |
| 20:17.59 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: do what DocScrutinizer05 said, check your /lib/modules for the kernel version. in BM tarball |
| 20:18.11 | parahumanoid | just a minute. |
| 20:18.12 | DocScrutinizer05 | selective resoring via tar xzf |
| 20:18.29 | DocScrutinizer05 | cya |
| 20:18.31 | DocScrutinizer05 | busy |
| 20:18.35 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: flashin the kernel via flasher would be easier IMO |
| 20:19.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | depends on what he wants to achive |
| 20:19.19 | parahumanoid | that would be a rootfs tarball right? |
| 20:19.25 | freemangordon | that is still unclear to me :) |
| 20:19.29 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: yep |
| 20:19.33 | DocScrutinizer05 | sure, the easiest is to flash proper matching kernel prior to restoring via BM |
| 20:19.51 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: what about after? |
| 20:20.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | after? |
| 20:20.12 | DocScrutinizer05 | err |
| 20:20.16 | DocScrutinizer05 | well |
| 20:20.18 | freemangordon | after restoring rootfs |
| 20:20.19 | DocScrutinizer05 | if you dare |
| 20:20.34 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: hmm? dare what? |
| 20:20.56 | DocScrutinizer05 | however I doubt the system will come up from BM after restoring a rootfs with conflicting kernel modules |
| 20:21.48 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: I don;t know how BM restore works, but if rootfs is fine and we have the correct modules in /lib/modules, flashing the matching kernel will fix it |
| 20:21.48 | DocScrutinizer05 | so you probably FIRST should flash the kernel that matches your BM backup tarball, only THEN restore that tarball via BM |
| 20:22.15 | DocScrutinizer05 | BM only accessed during boot, right? |
| 20:22.26 | parahumanoid | ok, in lib/modules I have two folders: "2.6.28.10-cssu3" and "2.6.28-omap1" and a file "current" with 0b size. |
| 20:22.26 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: no idea |
| 20:22.33 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: ooh |
| 20:22.43 | DocScrutinizer05 | freemangordon: WUT?? |
| 20:22.52 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: did you have CSSU-thumb by chance? |
| 20:23.05 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: still no BM here :) |
| 20:23.08 | freemangordon | hides |
| 20:23.08 | DocScrutinizer05 | sounds like you never used BM |
| 20:23.12 | freemangordon | yep |
| 20:23.29 | DocScrutinizer05 | it hooks into bootmenu |

| 20:24.16 | DocScrutinizer05 | LOL yeah, that sounds like thumb |
| 20:24.20 | DocScrutinizer05 | kernel |
| 20:24.30 | DocScrutinizer05 | who owes me that beer now? |
| 20:24.32 | parahumanoid | maybe. It's frankly not my unit, my friend's. He kills it once in a while because he apparently likes to try things, but I've always been able to handle it. I guess not this time. |
| 20:24.54 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: get http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/community-thumb/pool/free/k/kernel-cssu/kernel-cssu_2.6.28-10cssu3_armel.deb |
| 20:25.05 | DocScrutinizer05 | parahumanoid: well, you ran into the exactly right person ;-D |
| 20:25.07 | parahumanoid | I certainly recally thumb being mentioned somewhere. and as I don't own a n900 of my own, that would have to be connected with this unit. |
| 20:25.16 | DocScrutinizer05 | listen to what freemangordon tells you |
| 20:26.08 | parahumanoid | So before pulling the backup, I need to first installe the cssu? |
| 20:26.11 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: after getting the .deb, extract it. 7-zip can handle .deb files |
| 20:26.48 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: that's one way to do it, but it is way slower, so do ^^^ |
| 20:27.22 | CutMeOwnThroat | what I don't understand is... if it's a friend who likes to try things... why doesn't he try to fix it up himself again? |
| 20:27.35 | DocScrutinizer05 | [general advice] ALWAYS remember (or check in tarball) which kernel the backupmenu archive been based on. Flash SAME kernel FIRST, only *then* restore BM backup - otherwise you run into bootloop |
| 20:28.35 | DocScrutinizer05 | freemangordon: can't he simply *install* the thumb-kernel? |
| 20:28.49 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: extract zImage-2.6.28.10-cssu3.fiasco from the .deb, it is in "..\data.tar.gz\data.tar\.\boot\" |
| 20:29.21 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: it will be slower, as he have to reflash once again, to enable repos, etc |
| 20:29.37 | parahumanoid | Because he is not computer-literate much. He just got his first PC, until now he was being introduced to the digital things by first tinkering with his Symbian phone (I had one with the same platform at the time), then it was the WinMo 6.1, then Maemo. He's definitely bitten off too much when he got a linux unit. |
| 20:29.37 | DocScrutinizer05 | UGH what? the kernel.deb includes a .fiasco?? |
| 20:29.45 | freemangordon | ;) |

| 20:30.31 | Lava_Croft | chuckles |
| 20:30.34 | CutMeOwnThroat | parahumanoid, unsuccessful trying to fix it for half a year to a year would surely be educational, though? :D |
| 20:31.14 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: then run "flasher-3.5.exe -F zImage-2.6.28.10-cssu3.fiasco --flash-only=kernel -R" |
| 20:31.24 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: you should be fine after that |
| 20:31.25 | DocScrutinizer05 | suggestion: install proper rootsh blocker ;-P |
| 20:31.32 | freemangordon | hehe |
| 20:32.08 | parahumanoid | Cruel too. The funny thing is, I was the one who recommended N900 when he mentioned he wanted a unit with broad abilities. So, I'm kind of responsible for giving the grenade to a kid. |
| 20:32.32 | DocScrutinizer05 | freemangordon: will your kernel run with stock... err you'Re fixing the bootlooping device, right? right??? :-D |
| 20:32.33 | parahumanoid | freemangordon: I need to get out of r&d but can't. |
| 20:32.58 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: you can get out of R&D later |
| 20:32.59 | DocScrutinizer05 | freemangordon: you're clearly outsmarting me |
| 20:33.40 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: hmm? |
| 20:34.08 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: do what I said ^^^, will fix R&D once you;re out of the bootloop |
| 20:34.09 | parahumanoid | not the point, please help me get out of it now. It's not behaving as expected. |
| 20:34.10 | DocScrutinizer05 | I thought you flash thumb-kernel to a device with stock rootfs |
| 20:34.18 | DocScrutinizer05 | but that would be silly, I guess |

| 20:38.35 | CutMeOwnThroat | that sounds like some black magic ritual: "then plug in USB to N900, then insert battery while holding "U" key" |

| 20:40.18 | CutMeOwnThroat | like... silver? |
| 20:41.41 | parahumanoid | freemangordon, so ok, it's waiting for me to connect. as I said before, the unit is with battery removed, kbd closed, usb not plugged. What is the order to get it seen by the flasher? The standard "hold the 'U' " procedure is not working. |
| 20:42.31 | freemangordon | open the keyboard, connect USB cable, press'n'hold U, insert the battery |
| 20:42.53 | freemangordon | keeping the 'U' pressed until it starts to flash |
| 20:45.11 | DocScrutinizer05 | when the device doesn't show USB symbol upper right corner of the NOKIA screen and instead tries boting and loops, then your battery is too empty |
| 20:45.52 | DocScrutinizer05 | you're in a pinch then |
| 20:46.36 | parahumanoid | damn, that took a while for it to come on. I got a few more gray hairs. |
| 20:46.39 | parahumanoid | what next. |
| 20:46.41 | parahumanoid | ? |
| 20:46.44 | DocScrutinizer05 | unless you're lucky and device boots unto backupmenu menu, since that is supposed to charge battery (when sufficiently recent) |
| 20:47.05 | DocScrutinizer05 | huh? |
| 20:47.19 | DocScrutinizer05 | you probably flashed and watched the device boot? |
| 20:47.30 | DocScrutinizer05 | what do you mean by COME UP? |
| 20:47.49 | parahumanoid | "to come on" = to power on |
| 20:47.52 | DocScrutinizer05 | what does you flasher command on PC tell you? |
| 20:48.14 | parahumanoid | seems to have flashed the kernel. dump in a sec. |
| 20:48.21 | DocScrutinizer05 | and what exactly is "power on"? |

| 21:01.38 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: are you sure the kernel was successfuly flashed? |
| 21:01.49 | parahumanoid | The flasher, while it took a bit of waiting, did acknowledge it and return it to production mode. But it's not powering on. I think it's just drained, cause I've been tinkering with it all day long. |
| 21:02.07 | freemangordon | ooh, yeah |
| 21:02.24 | freemangordon | parahumanoid: connect it to wall charger, not USB |
| 21:02.36 | DocScrutinizer05 | I doubt it would flash anything in that state |
| 21:03.16 | parahumanoid | freemangordon: even if it wasn't, now that I'm back to familiar state, I can always do a vanilla, install cssu, and then restore the backup. That should do the trick, right? |
| 21:03.29 | parahumanoid | But I'm pretty sure it succeeded. |
| 21:03.33 | freemangordon | yep |
| 21:03.36 | DocScrutinizer05 | wich familiar state? |
| 21:04.41 | DocScrutinizer05 | and you still would need to flash correct kernel before (or after) BM backup rstore |
| 21:05.08 | freemangordon | DocScrutinizer05: hmm, why? cssu-thumb will flash it |
| 21:06.00 | parahumanoid | Doc: It wouldn't leave the R&D in a familiar fashion, required long waits for the flasher to "see" it. I've set a few extra flags before that may have influenced it. |
| 21:06.12 | DocScrutinizer05 | since after flashing vanilla a flasjing of rootfs is mandatory (due to optification), and that would restore kernel to stock unless you do special tricks for flasher parameters |
| 21:07.25 | parahumanoid | Doc: it would, correct. But what's to stop you from installing the cssu-thumb from the repo, rebooting into BM and restoring the images? |
