sicelothe issue with mic not working in calls really baffles me, especially because it's intermittent.10:52
sicelouvos: any ideas? suggestion for what i can/should look at?10:53
siceloarno11: is it possible that the hangup is not really a bug in tp/ofono/etc. but just the known issue with some UI elements almost hanging the device when there's a phone call?10:55
sicelouvos: any idea about the TS bug too? it's quite inconvenient ... i.e. it seems reenabling the TS fails, when there's incoming call. maybe something's racy?10:58
siceloit happens for me more than 75% of the time. workaround is to toggle the lock state of the device using the power key, hoping the caller stays on the line long enough for that11:00
sicelosomething else ... i have contacts saved, but sphone doesn't resolve them11:00
siceloor is it because i stored the number as +26876xxxxxx, and the incoming call actually comes as 76xxxxxx (i.e. local number without prefix)?11:01
siceloi *think* this worked fine in Fremantle11:01
arno11sicelo: (for hangup) seems different. i checked in monitor-ofono and the call is correctly closed (and PA synch stopped). but sphone continues to show an active call11:18
sicelojust verified ... the number<->contact resolution is still broken even when the number doesn't include the prefix (+268)11:19
siceloarno11: at least that shows fault is not in ofono :-P11:19
arno11i just mean that the call is really closed11:20
siceloarno11: so i was wondering if, at that time, it's not actually N900 being somewhat frozen? thus the sphone UI appears to hang?11:20
arno11nope11:21
arno11sphone works fine11:21
arno11no freeze at all11:21
Wizzuplet me just take a look (hopefully today) at the parts where you're not able to answer11:22
Wizzupoh, wait, sicelo you're saying this is a touchscreen issue?11:22
siceloWizzup: there are different unrelated issues11:23
sicelo1. there's a mic issue11:23
sicelo2. there's a TS issue11:23
sicelo3. there's a contact name resolution issue11:23
sicelofor mic issue ... i've already accepted the call (or i initiated it) ... i can hear the person, but they can't hear me at all. doesn't happen all the time, but is very frequent11:24
sicelofor TS issue ... there's an incoming call, sphone shows up, but touch anywhere does nothing. toggling lock state using power button restores things11:25
siceloit's the mic issue that is more critical to me, for obvious reasons11:25
siceloWizzup: all these three are being experienced on Droid 4. no idea about N90011:26
sicelothen 4. contact name resolution seems not working. i *think* i've seen it work in the past with sphone, so i'm not sure what's different now11:27
Wizzupsicelo: so when you said it kept ringing, this is a ts issue?11:28
Wizzupor kept vibrating rather11:28
siceloi think that was something else. maybe the device was frozen or something. hasn't happened again since yesterday11:29
Wizzupok11:31
Wizzupsorry, I'm in the middle of some bureacratic nightmare wrestling match with the dutch government so my mind is kind of elsewhere11:31
arno11(on n900 no troubles like that, excepting hangup bug and name reso)11:31
arno11so good luck man11:31
Wizzupif you can make github issues with steps it will be easier for me to try it out when I can set my mind to it in few hours hopefully11:31
siceloso it's just the 4 issues above that are recurring, with differing regularity11:31
Wizzupor a single github issue is fine to11:32
Wizzuptoo*11:32
sicelosure, will do. unfortunately no idea about reproducing :-P11:32
sicelobecause it just happens unexpectedly11:32
siceloarno11: nice to know N900 isn't affected. that might help to narrow it down11:32
Wizzupif you can just describe like: incoming call, this happens11:33
arno11bbl11:34
siceloin the meantime, because of the mic issue, i moved the SIM to N9 (MeeGo)11:49
Wizzup*nod*11:50
PPKInteresting bug: 4G internet connection did not show up until set system settings Internet connection: Ask12:33
Wizzupwhat device is this?12:34
PPKPinephone12:34
PPKlatest image12:34
Wizzupso you're saying the lte wasn't provisioned until you opened the internet control panel in the settings?12:34
PPKyes12:35
PPKone special thing I have: wifi is disabled with dip-switch12:37
Wizzuphm, I wonder if that is related indeed12:38
PPKbtw..how to set timezone with clock app, by default it seems to be London, clock shows right London time.12:41
Wizzupsettings->date and time->time zone12:42
Wizzupor maybe check if this is heplful :D http://maemo-leste-manual.motionlibre.org/maemolesteuserhandbook.pdf12:42
PPKah :)12:43
PPKthat map shows different place that chosed...but I managed.12:43
PPKthat manual should be in place where is question mark icon in apps that does not work at all.12:46
PPKmanual chapter 8.2.1 should add in picture how attach Pinephone keyboard to Pinephone. It would be nice that hint from wiki about layout comes default layout in Pinephone.12:54
PPKalso I noticed with droid4 that still have to set that layout from wiki..it also should be default.12:55
PPKwhat file I have to edit in Droid4 if I want ÄÖÜẞ on AOUS with that OK button?12:58
PPKlike it is with Pinephone Keyboard altgr-layout.13:07
Wizzupcould you file some issues on gh? I made a label documentation so that you can add that label for the request on how to add the pinephone keyboard13:17
Wizzupbrb13:17
LeePenI have leste booted on my n900 and with light transitions and tracker disabled, the speed is usable so far.13:19
LeePenXterm doesn't seem to receive the <enter> key. I am having to use ctrl-j13:20
LeePenAny ideas?13:20
LeePenWhat is the alternative to osso-filemanager?13:20
Wizzupxterm or osso-xterm?13:22
Wizzuphamsterfiler I think can be used13:22
PPKLeePee, I use Midnight Commander (mc) as filemanager it support touch in Maemo.13:23
LeePenBoth xterm and osso-xterm: actually <enter> is fine initially, but once I ssh elsewhere it the key no longer works and I have to use ctrl-j13:24
LeePenreset is no help.13:25
LeePenSounds like a terminfo thing.13:25
PPKLeePee, You can also try Thunar as filemanager. It is not real Maemo version, but it is usable, example going into folder with touch and then space.13:29
PPKI hope that someday Thunar is default filemanager for Maemo.13:30
LeePenPPK: thanks for the suggestions.13:34
dsc_there's also Hamsterfiler13:35
dsc_https://github.com/maemo-leste-extras/hamsterfiler/13:35
WizzupLeePen: once you ssh? hm..13:35
Wizzupthis is on n900?13:36
PPKLeePee: Hamster Filer also available thru Application Manager it is real Maemo software.13:37
PPKIs there any skill full enough to compile Maemo software to Leste like this: https://wiki.maemo.org/FMMS13:45
WizzupI think fmms won't work because the cellular stack is very different13:47
Wizzupwe probably need to figure out a better way to do mms13:47
Wizzup(right now we have none)13:47
PPKgood to know13:47
LeePenWizzup: yes and yes14:23
uvos__im suprised people still use mms, around here it was never popular15:00
uvos__everyone in my contacts seams to have gohne from sms directly to ip messaging skipping mms15:01
arno11LeePen: if you feel the speed just 'usable', check if your sdcard is fast enough and check if you upgraded to devel. few more tweaks are needed btw to make the n900 really usable @600MHz max. i'll make a list15:04
Wizzuparno11: yes please, a list, I have some time today now :)15:06
arno11ah ok cool :)15:06
uvos__sicelo: Wizzup: contact name resolution still works fine for me (as do the other things) i still use the ofono backend15:07
uvos__this suggests the line_id in sphone is wrong so the lookup fails15:07
uvos__when used with vcm15:07
uvos__sicelo: i use the d4 alot for phone calls and have never had any of your issues, but i do use a quie different setup since15:09
uvos__mic issue: could be a race in the kernel driver/ofono the modem audio handling is quite hacky, vcm might be triggering this by being alot slower15:10
uvos__ts issue: some systemui race with tlkock maybe - i dont use tklock so i  would not see this15:10
Wizzupthe kernel also has some racy issues still15:10
Wizzupiirc15:10
uvos__resolution issue: as mentioned15:10
uvos__yeah i said that15:11
Wizzupah, you mentioned userspace15:12
WizzupI meant kernelspace15:12
arno11Wizzup: LeePen: sysctl vm.swappiness=30, echo 500000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq, chrt -r -p 98 $(pgrep pulseaudio), tracker daemon -t (make sure miner, extract and store are stopped)15:15
arno11and light transitions15:16
arno11and if you want, disable apt-worker (for the moment)15:16
sicelouvos__: MMS seems popular in US/Canada for some reason15:18
sicelomic issue ... i can reflash a non-devel image and see if the problem is there. it could be related to vcm indeed, since i never had this issue before15:20
sicelots issue was there even pre-tp days15:20
uvos__sicelo: no nead to flash15:21
uvos__just delete the /usr/share/sphone/sphone.ini.d/SOMETHING-maemo.ini15:21
uvos__and reboot15:21
uvos__sphone will revert to its default non-maemo config which is what i use15:21
uvos__to make it permanent you can cp sphone.ini to ~/.sphone15:22
uvos__since SOMETHING-maemo.ini will return when leste-config upgrades15:22
uvos__sicelo: yeah and i can tell you why, in us mms is used when an iphone uses imessage to communicate with a non iphone15:23
uvos__imessage is non-existant outside us since iphones are not the dominat platform anywhere else15:24
uvos__sicelo: as for tp issue could you check via ssh if the ts is disabled in xinput in this state15:26
uvos__also monitor tklock state with dbus-monitor if possible15:26
uvos__*ts issue15:26
sixwheeledbeastwhere is "light transitions" from?15:40
arno11sixwheeledbeast: that's just a custom transitions.ini file based on Fremantle tweaks15:53
sixwheeledbeastis there a source available?15:55
arno11(leste-config/pull/40)15:55
sixwheeledbeastso is this is devel already?15:59
arno11no16:00
sixwheeledbeastleste device transitions do feel clunky compared to my fremantle but I tweaked them years ago, need to compare16:01
arno11i did the same years ago too16:01
arno11now the feeling is even better on leste compared to my Fremantle (but transitions/effects/animations are almost completely disabled on my leste)16:06
arno11the major diff is still the touchscreen latency16:06
arno11far better on fremantle, i wonder why16:07
arno11and i wonder if it is possible to tweak that16:08
sixwheeledbeastmaybe hardware being resistive?16:34
sixwheeledbeastor is this the same device16:34
uvos__on n900 the hardware is always resistive (har har)16:35
arno11sixwheeledbeast: i meant on the same device16:42
sixwheeledbeast:nod:16:43
sixwheeledbeastComparing most of the ones changed in that pull I have larger values on, so there must be something else effecting the feel.16:45
arno11well, in fact, difficult to compare16:48
diejuseLeePen I use SpaceFM like a file manager. It is good. Try it19:01
LeePendiejuse: thanks, I'll give it a go.19:52
