05:34.06root_demonI'm sad.
05:35.48root_demonmr. wiki warned me that if I add a -m flag to nandwrite that I'd get an entire partition of blocks marked as bad, and mr. wiki was correct.
05:35.59root_demonpouts
05:47.11root_demonso begins another 45 minutes of wiki reading. does anyone have positive things to say about android? my goal is to play with it on nand.
05:47.11PaulFertserDocScrutinizer: Ah, so you preferred plain illume to niebiee. Ok, np, i'll get a version today's evening.
05:47.47PaulFertserroot_demon: android is not for hackers, that's what android devs say themselves.
05:48.05PaulFertserroot_demon: also -m is not a problem unless you have forgotten to do flasherase_all beforehand.
05:50.46*** join/#openmoko freelock_ (n=john@216.231.62.127)
06:04.56root_demonI just used flash_erase on mtd6, then I decided to try -m with nandwrite. the whole partition is now marked bad. I'm gonna have to reflash everything, included u-boot, hah?
06:05.12root_demon*including
06:07.33PaulFertserroot_demon: you flasherase or flasherase_all?
06:07.45root_demonflasherase.
06:08.25PaulFertserroot_demon: did you mistyped or read somewhere this harmful advice?
06:08.37root_demonit's actually on the wiki.
06:08.54PaulFertserroot_demon: please pass me a link, it should be fixed immediately.
06:09.21PaulFertserroot_demon: have you already found the guide to do "nand scrub" etc?
06:09.30root_demonactually, nevermind. it is flash_eraseall.
06:09.39root_demonthe wiki page with minicom?
06:09.51PaulFertserroot_demon: aha, so you mistyped
06:10.11*** join/#openmoko freelock_ (n=john@216.231.62.127)
06:10.30PaulFertserroot_demon: you can use any terminal emulator you like to give commands to NOR u-boot.
06:10.44PaulFertserroot_demon: and yes, you'll have to reflash everything on NAND.
06:11.26root_demonthe first time I did this (yesterday) I must have used flash_eraseall. I probably used the wrong one this time. do i have to use minicom or can I reflash everything (including uboot) with flasherase/nandwrite?
06:11.56PaulFertserroot_demon: the problem is that blocks are already marked bad, so flasherase will do nothing about it.
06:12.13root_demonwell, that bastard....
06:12.40PaulFertserroot_demon: you can take Werner's badnand utility (that shows information about bad blocks) and somehow alter it to support clearing BBT and OOB data about bad blocks.

06:12.50PaulFertserroot_demon: or use NOR u-boot to "scrub" nand.
06:13.42PaulFertserroot_demon: or just use your SD and boot everything you need from it.
06:14.29root_demonI read the wiki on minicom/neocon and I don't quiet get it. I don't have a /dev/ttyACM0.  is it better to use neocon to avoid kernel/module compilation?
06:15.37root_demonwell, I have to use the SD card. the motherboard on my laptop is about gone. the usb ports no longer work. it's looking more and more like a technology graveyard in here. the freerunner will be next on the list when i end up bricking it.

07:06.45root_demonso minicom mus be used on a computer connected to the phone via usb?

07:35.25PaulFertserroot_demon: no, reflashing u-boot can't clear bbt
07:35.30PaulFertserroot_demon: obviously
07:35.52PaulFertserroot_demon: i've already told you that your only chance is to modify Werner's badnand utility or to find some usb host finally.
07:37.59PaulFertserroot_demon: also don't forget that on FR bad block information is also stored in OOB data :-/
07:39.19root_demonPaulFertser: re-read the wiki. so, the bbt is at the very end of flash. I get it now. if i were to 0xFF  (or does a 0 bit represent clear?) the last two blocks, would that be enough? that wouldn't help with oob though. i see that your name is on that wiki page for clearing the bbt.
07:40.57root_demonI'm just not going to be able to accept that as an answer. I'm gonna find a way to clear that table without a host computer.
07:41.22PaulFertserroot_demon: i have to admit i've already forgot all the details but i can say you think in right direction. But please make sure you verify every step you're going to perform. I really recommend you to at least read werner's badnand.c to understand more about BBT.
07:42.06PaulFertserroot_demon: also i'm not sure anymore if linux NAND code uses only BBT or OOB too.
07:42.17PaulFertserroot_demon: and not sure about u-boot.
07:42.35PaulFertserroot_demon: btw, nandwrite allows you to alter OOB data too if you use some proper switches.
07:42.43root_demonnow where is badnand.c again? is that part of the nand utils stuff's source?
07:43.17PaulFertserroot_demon: no, it's Werner's utility: http://svn.openmoko.org/developers/werner/badnand/
07:44.13PaulFertserroot_demon: btw, i recommend you to search openmoko kernel ML archives, there was some discussion about all that stuff (badnand was written as a result of that), i think you'll get more understanding if you find it.
07:45.04*** join/#openmoko thrashold (n=europan@3mhz.net)
07:45.41root_demonm'kay, will do. I'm sure somebody else out there must have been in the same predicament.
07:47.31PaulFertserroot_demon: not really, having an access to a usb-host equipped device is quite common. Also not many people tried using nandwrite, even less of those used wrong command for erasing the flash and moreover they didn't risk using -m i guess.
07:48.22root_demonwell, maybe I'll add a wiki page after all this - a 'what not to do' page.

07:52.17PaulFertserroot_demon: there's already a warning on the wiki about -m
07:53.46PaulFertserroot_demon: btw, i think i was probably the first to do the stupid thing and to mess my nand using -m. I'm not sure anymore but probably i solved that overwriting the relevant nand partition (including OOB) with 0xff but i didn't touch BBT.
07:57.44thrasholdCan GTA1 charge GTA2 batteries?
07:58.03PaulFertserthrashold: well, sort of
07:58.28thrasholdI'm still wondering if my gta01 is dead, or it was just the battery
07:58.40PaulFertserthrashold: when it's running, it can charge but in theory it can not reach more than 200mA and that needs tweaking of one PMU register
07:58.42thrasholdI diagnosed it dead after it didn't charge the gta02 battery
07:59.01PaulFertserthrashold: you better fully charge gta02 battery in gta02 and then try it in your gta01.
07:59.42PaulFertserthrashold: because in practice those 200mA seem to be split between charging and powering the device so in the best case (after manually tweaking PMU register) you'll have ~50mA charging.
08:00.05PaulFertserthrashold: but if you fully booted and then did "poweroff" then PMU will start charging with 500mA limit.
08:00.19PaulFertserI don't have explanation but this stuff i say currently i've seen myself.
08:00.24thrasholdI see
08:00.56PaulFertserthrashold: why do you think your gta01 is dead?
08:01.00thrasholdWell
08:02.11thrasholdIts battery had swollen, and it wasn't charging, and I bought a gta02 battery, thinking it was the battery
08:02.19thrasholdThe new battery still didn't charge
08:02.41thrasholdAnd due to the fact that I've heard the scream of death several times
08:02.52thrasholdI thought that the device was dead
08:03.00thrasholdat least the charging
08:03.11PaulFertserthrashold: oh, scream of death. :( why didn't you avoid it?
08:03.19thrasholdI didn't know about it :)
08:03.37PaulFertserthrashold: can you probably get access to any nokia bl-5c charger or cellphone with charged battery?
08:04.12thrasholdI have charged GTA02 batteries, the phone works with them
08:04.18thrasholdIt just doesn't charge anything
08:04.19thrashold:)
08:04.23PaulFertserthrashold: btw, if you're handy with soldering iron you can carefully disassemble the battery and insert 10k between id pin and ground, it will allow gta01 to charge it.
08:04.33PaulFertserthrashold: aha, so it's not dead, lucky you!
08:05.01thrasholdSo it is possible that even the charging is OK?
08:05.05PaulFertserthrashold: so to say yes, gta01 has difficulties charging non-native batteries. There're three possible fixes:
08:05.17thrashold(I can't check the damanged battery, because I heard that gta02 wouldn't charge it)
08:05.51PaulFertserthrashold: fully boot with the battery you want to charge (it should have enough juice for that) and then do 'poweroff'. Do not disconnect from USB! It will charge with 500mA.
08:06.06PaulFertserthrashold: second is to take any compatible battery and use 10k there.
08:06.39PaulFertserthrashold: third (and best imho) is to change 10k inside gta01 to 70k that will allow to charge any nokia bl-[456]c battery.
08:08.49PaulFertserthrashold: (70k) that's basically an 'educated guess' i suggest you measure the resistance on your particular nokia battery while it's at about room temperature and use something close to that.
08:09.17PaulFertserthrashold: (gta02 charging foreign battery) gta02 never had any problems charging _any_ battery.
08:09.31PaulFertserthrashold: but i'd not recommend to try to use a "swallen" one anyway.
08:09.50thrasholdI tried, and it didn't charge it. So I assume it's the battery
08:09.50thrashold?

08:34.02thrashold?
08:34.35PaulFertserthrashold: what's unclear about it? ;)
08:35.00thrasholdIt mentions nokia batteries :)
08:37.04thrasholdSo I assume I can use this for a gta02 battery, too. OK. I'm currently testing the first suggestion :O)
08:39.36thrasholdthanks
08:39.59PaulFertserthrashold: nope, to charge gta02 battery like it's native you'll need to disassemble the battery and to connect 10k there between id pin and gnd.
08:40.05*** join/#openmoko el_sime (n=MBESANCO@mail.lusis.fr)
08:40.17PaulFertserthrashold: because gta02 batteries have a special bq27000 chip that uses HDQ over that ID pin normally.
08:40.39thrasholdNo way to do this by modyfing the phone?
08:40.52PaulFertserthrashold: alternatively, you can make some hardware tweak to gta01 to disable temperature control altogether.
08:41.10PaulFertserthrashold: that way it'll work like gta02 charging any battery.

11:26.46SpeedEvilno - however for the immediate future at least it would probably be a useful low-power mode
11:28.17DocScrutinizer-8depending on the one "reserved" bit in SDHC prot existing or not, they for sure will specify a backward compatibility mode for XC
11:29.28DocScrutinizer-8honestly I have no idea if adress space of HC is used up with 32G

11:31.08mjrmy guess is sane and greedy

23:04.11DocScrutinizer-8uhsf: please stop stating assumptions out of the blue as facts: "s fr very poor sound during calls, it will never get solved" If you want to state things like that, I ask for verbose explanation on where you think you can proove that's true :-(
23:04.52DocScrutinizer-8uhsf: N900 is shipped 2009.10.12 according to Nokia webshop and hotline
23:10.29DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: 88-full was removed due tu some issue of unknown-to-me nature. Install lite and do "opkg install" whatever you miss in lite
23:11.31StrollerDocScrutinizer-8: thanks, bud. I found the instructions on the wiki "SHR User Manual" page
23:11.37DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: 2009-09-06 allegedly is ok too. Not tested by me though

23:17.10StrollerDocScrutinizer-8: I think it was you who advised me about the flashing earlier? It went very smoothly, thank you
23:17.24DocScrutinizer-8np
23:17.27DocScrutinizer-8:-)
23:17.32DocScrutinizer-8enjoy SHR
23:17.42DocScrutinizer-8don't upgrade! ;-)
23:17.43Stroller:)
23:17.47StrollerIt seems quite nice
23:17.55DocScrutinizer-8...without asking if it's safe
23:18.35StrollerUmmm... I used opkg upgrade already
23:18.35Stroller:/
23:19.11StrollerWas that a bad thing to do?
23:19.20DocScrutinizer-8hmm, I'm not aware of todays upgrade mood ;-)
23:19.28Strollerlol
23:19.30StrollerOk
23:19.52StrollerI can't quite get the hang of SHR - is the top bar supposed to be "clickable"?
23:19.59DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: see, it's unstable. Means things change every 12h
23:20.13DocScrutinizer-8yep
23:20.42Strolleryeah, that figures. But it means that if `opkg upgrade` was a mistake, I may be able to correct it in 12 or 24h
23:20.47StrollerHmmmn... ok.
23:20.58DocScrutinizer-8top bar should dropdown and show three buttons and a wrench for illume settings
23:21.09StrollerAh! ok
23:21.16StrollerI meant the battery on the RHS
23:21.26DocScrutinizer-8nope
23:21.33StrollerAnd there's something else next to it, like a pale circle
23:21.35StrollerOkies
23:21.36Stroller:)
23:21.41StrollerAlso, you mentioned something about a later uBoot?
23:21.50DocScrutinizer-8bat is hard to hit, and if you do, it shows charge %
23:22.19DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: don't bother about uBoot for next 5 days
23:22.41StrollerOh? There's a new releaser planned?
23:22.48DocScrutinizer-8no
23:23.12DocScrutinizer-8but it will take you some days to get used to SHR usual behaviour
23:23.27max_posedonStroller, they don't plan any release
23:23.42max_posedonbut shr-steam going release non-working-xorg-image soon
23:23.48DocScrutinizer-8and the "eeeew, Qi borked my GSM" msgs are really annoying
23:24.19Strollerlol, ok
23:24.50DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: new uBoot won't buy you anything for now
23:25.20StrollerOk, TY
23:25.51*** join/#openmoko batti112 (n=batti@dslb-092-073-169-191.pools.arcor-ip.net)
23:26.25StrollerI was kinda worried, because I'm sure there was this thing in the early days, where  if your battery ran flat, you couldn't start the Freerunner. Not even with it on charge via USB. You needed to use a 3rd-party battery to jump-start it or something. And I thought an updated bootloader fixed that
23:27.54max_posedonbootloader can't help you with this
23:27.57DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: nothing changed on that. Absolutely nothing ;-P
23:28.08max_posedonbecause problem was *before* starting bootloader
23:28.14DocScrutinizer-8yep
23:28.26max_posedonand now we have crazy solution how boot neo without battery at all
23:28.34max_posedon(works for near 97% of neos)
23:29.06max_posedonso empty battery not problem at all
23:29.28*** join/#openmoko mdrobnak (n=mdrobnak@98.116.165.7)
23:29.33StrollerOk, ty
23:29.52DocScrutinizer-8new uBoot will fix issues with booting from uSD, passing wake reason to kernel, etc. But won't help on gta02a5 not booting with(out/flat) bat
23:29.52*** part/#openmoko mdrobnak (n=mdrobnak@98.116.165.7)
23:30.25DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: iirc you FR is first charge?
23:31.05StrollerNope... I got it as part of the first shipment.... decided not to use it until I sold my existing phone... as an incentive to get that sold... then forgot about it
23:31.08Strollerblushes
23:31.19DocScrutinizer-8You should try to boot to nor uboot menu, without bat, with OM wallcharger
23:31.34StrollerSo it has like an update in the first week or two, then stayed unused
23:32.19StrollerI left it with the battery fully charged for like a year...  so I think that's not the best way to store the battery, but it's started ok, & is running fine off USB power at the moment
23:32.24DocScrutinizer-8s/first charge/early revision/
23:33.09StrollerOh, yeah
23:33.22StrollerI thought I'd try updating it & see if it has the buzz.
23:33.34DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: if you can get screen without bat, you have no problem. Otherwise nothing will fix your problem
23:33.36StrollerThen I'll prolly send it off to Germany for the buzz-fix, anyway
23:34.55DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: remove bat, plug wallcharger. hold aux, press power -> hope for bootloader menu
23:35.16StrollerOk, I'll try that later
23:35.22StrollerI think  I have a wallcharger
23:35.24DocScrutinizer-8if no reaction, then make sure you always have a spare bat
23:35.53StrollerI wish `opkg install` gave you  a counter ... like  1 of xx or whateevr  
23:37.08DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: lol. same here
23:37.16DocScrutinizer-8opkg is a pita
23:38.02DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: you probably should upgrade your modem firmware
23:38.51DocScrutinizer-8follow uSD-method instructions on wiki GSM_flashing page. It's simple, it's almost fun
23:41.40StrollerTa, that looks easy enough
23:41.50*** join/#openmoko idarwin (n=ian@67.71.251.74)
23:42.54DocScrutinizer-8Stroller: thanks :-) pleased to hear that
23:46.24StrollerOh, I keep getting a lot of Enlightenment Errors, with  f1 or f2 option boxes ....  could this just be because I don't have a SIM card in?
23:46.53DocScrutinizer-8nope
23:47.04DocScrutinizer-8shouldn't happen
23:47.34DocScrutinizer-8might be due to upgrade :-P
23:47.41Strollerlol
23:47.47StrollerNo, started before that
23:48.27DocScrutinizer-8hmm, strange
23:49.03DocScrutinizer-8you selected theme illume-shr?
23:49.10DocScrutinizer-8on first boot?
23:49.20StrollerYes
23:49.35DocScrutinizer-8no idea then. never heard this
23:49.49StrollerNext question: what's the thing next to the battery in the top bar, next  to the battery. Looks like a white circle - it's hard to see on the grey background - and it's half filled-in
23:51.36DocScrutinizer-8hmm, I changed my gadgets sequence. No such thing anywhere anyway. I seem to remeber the illume quickstarter menu has such an icon
23:52.58DocScrutinizer-8there should be no quickstarter though. Just bat, GSM-signal, digital-clock
23:53.25DocScrutinizer-8and the two arrows to switch windows
23:53.54Strolleri guess it might be GSM signal, huh?
23:54.26DocScrutinizer-8maybe. it's quite near to invisible without SIM
23:55.29DocScrutinizer-8I think there should be a writing "SOS only" or "no signal" associated to that gadget
23:55.59DocScrutinizer-8notice you can drag the gadgets to sort them
23:56.28StrollerThere's a "no service" - maybe the icon's invisible when GSM is in
23:57.50DocScrutinizer-8hmm, I have to admit I didn't test without SIM for a long time. Dunno
