Re: [Fwd: [Bug 288747] Re: [needs-packaging] neotool]

Wow, cool! Does this mean that there's now a debian package?

I just saw your other message about this, does this mean that the issues 
you were having are solved?

Great stuff.

It would be great if you could update the NeoTool wiki page with 
instructions on installing on debian / ubuntu. I don't run debian or 
ubuntu, so don't know much about their packaging systems...

Regards,

Re: QtExtended 4.4.2 Changes?

I just had the same problem:
jffs2_scan_eraseblok(): Magic bitmask
But it was due to my own mistake - I extracted jiffs image to the same
directory as tarball.
And than flashed it with qtextended* , so instead of actual image I
flashed an archive to my phone :D

I did this and rebooted.  No change.

Should there be an executing process running neod?  There isn't in any 
case.  I tried running it from a terminal session and got:

[Qtextended] [X-post] The ugly part

Well, I spoke too soon.  There was some gsm buzzing even I could hear on a call, so I switched on the speaker.  Result: LOUD feedback.  So I inserted the headphones while the call was on (after apologizing to the other party). Result: LOUD feedback from the earphones.

I removed the earphones, reverted to the handset, but the other party was not at all audible.  So I disconnected, and dialed again, only to realize after some attempts that gsm had stopped working.  The only workable remedy was to reboot the phone. 

I repeat that I have used the binary update for 4.4.2, which means my original .state files (as fiddled with countless times) must be intact, and the 'official' .state files may have a better overall results.  However, I also noticed something else: when I pick up an incoming call on the handset, first there is an audible squeak like feedback for half a second.

I really wonder what is happening here.  I might have to unwillingly downgrade the FR with Qtextended from 'almost a daily phone' to 'not at all a daily phone' if this persists.

Oh, by the way, my interest is in seeing that the FR becomes a daily phone for *everyone*, except for those who stubbornly refuse to admit it was ever meant to be one.

first thing that crosses my mind is netcat. with some clever scripting

Re: [Qtextended] [X-post] The ugly part

I can confirm the exact behaviour on my freerunner gta02, after the
upgrade to 4.4.2 from 4.4.1.

Re: no icons in 2008.testing

Thanks for the update John!

Now I have icons again - it works with the asu theme, but with the
illume default theme enlightenment keeps crashing - oh well :)

Also, the settings app doesn't start at all.

Still this is a great improvement!

I think that is a message from your operator to say that you have a new 
voicemail message. 

When the phone gets that message it should give you a "new voicemail" popup or 
other indicator instead of putting the message in your SMS inbox.

Could you phone your voicemail mailbox to see if this is the case?

And do you have the option to test this with another phone?
