| 22:18.38 | karelbarel | Shoert question. I tried to boot at least 4 kernels using the new boot-usb, ezx-boot-usb and whatever I found but it counts percents uploading the kernel and then the phone just switches itself off. Does anybody have a clue, what I'm doing wrong? I remember that I tried this a year ago and it just worked. :-( |
| 22:18.59 | ml-something | what phone? |
| 22:19.02 | karelbarel | A780 |
| 22:21.45 | karelbarel | Any clue? |
| 22:26.46 | ml-something | can't say really, all of my work has been on the a1200 |
| 22:27.05 | ml-something | when you say it switches off, does the screen just go black? |
| 22:29.07 | karelbarel | Yes. |
| 22:29.13 | ml-something | hmm |
| 22:29.20 | karelbarel | and if I press power button, it would boot normally |
| 22:29.35 | karelbarel | I'm uploading it to youtube so you can see |
| 22:31.26 | karelbarel | I first thought that it's a wrong kernel but I tried a few more and always the same result. |
| 22:31.45 | karelbarel | Actually, sometimes it shows some garbage on the display for a fraction of a second. |
| 22:31.53 | ml-something | yeah, I had that issue to start |
| 22:32.04 | ml-something | have you tried pulling down a vanilla kernel and applying the openezx patches? |
| 22:33.22 | karelbarel | I haven't try to compile my own kernel yet. I just used some pre-compiled ones. |
| 22:33.37 | ml-something | ok |
| 22:33.50 | ml-something | I ran into that issue with a number of the pre-compiled kernels, not sure why |
| 22:34.48 | karelbarel | So you fixed it by compiling your own kernel? |
| 22:34.48 | ml-something | yeah |
| 22:34.48 | ml-something | building my own let me boot enough to get openmoko "running," albeit in a wholly unusable state |
| 22:35.29 | karelbarel | I wanted to try dualboot but I couldn't even start backing up the phone because I couldn;t boot even the backup kernel. |
| 22:37.59 | karelbarel | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNevYVA1j7U |
| 22:38.30 | karelbarel | That's what it does. |
| 22:38.36 | ml-something | yeah looks familiar |
| 22:38.57 | karelbarel | :-) |
| 22:38.59 | ml-something | try the a780 image here: http://people.openezx.org/stefan/images/20080426/ |
| 22:39.08 | ml-something | I was able to boot the a1200 image fine |
| 22:42.11 | karelbarel | Yep, this one makes thew display white |
| 22:42.22 | ml-something | only white? |
| 22:42.32 | karelbarel | With some ugly vertical lines. |
| 22:42.37 | ml-something | no console output? |
| 22:43.17 | karelbarel | Nope. And now it went black again. |
| 22:43.25 | ml-something | huh |
| 22:43.30 | karelbarel | I'll try to remove the battery |
| 22:43.39 | karelbarel | and give it a fresh start |
| 22:43.48 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: What version of boot_usb do you use? |
| 22:44.37 | karelbarel | boot_usb-0.2.0 |
| 22:44.58 | karelbarel | That should be the newest one, right? |
| 22:45.11 | stefan_schmidt | it is |
| 22:45.36 | stefan_schmidt | hmm, this is somewhat strange as the kernel works on my a780 |
| 22:46.28 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: Can you please boot into the default system, shut it down again and re-test? |
| 22:46.42 | karelbarel | Can it be a wrong version of the bootloader? |
| 22:46.46 | karelbarel | Yep, I can |
| 22:47.04 | karelbarel | I have a version of 3.0 2004-05-18 |
| 22:47.57 | stefan_schmidt | no, that is the only one I have ever seen |
| 22:48.12 | stefan_schmidt | Seems to be the only one in the public. |
| 22:48.19 | stefan_schmidt | Not in Motorolas labs that is |
| 22:48.26 | WyrM | karelbarel, stefan_schmidt: Hi! |
| 22:48.35 | karelbarel | So that should be OK. |
| 22:48.35 | stefan_schmidt | hi WyrM |
| 22:48.40 | karelbarel | WyrM: Hi! |
| 22:48.41 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: how are you? |
| 22:48.49 | WyrM | karelbarel: if nothing else works, try http://people.openezx.org/wyrm/zImage-a780-intoxicated |
| 22:49.20 | karelbarel | OK, I'm trying |
| 22:49.41 | WyrM | karelbarel: this image doesnt have the battery-low detection code at startup. |
| 22:49.43 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: I pinged Harald two times about the double machine entry thing. Seems he has no comments on it. I think we should just go ahead and do what we think is right. |
| 22:50.06 | karelbarel | The intoxicated kernel works. |
| 22:50.17 | WyrM | stefan_schmidt: Ok, i will mail Russell about the double entries. :) |
| 22:50.33 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: Cool, please put me in the cc |
| 22:51.15 | karelbarel | WyrM: congratulations. You compiled the only kernel that works for me. |
| 22:51.21 | karelbarel | Now, what's the trick? |
| 22:51.35 | WyrM | karelbarel: this problem is already known for some time. |
| 22:52.05 | WyrM | the battery-low detection code never worked for the E680 and for some versions of a780. |
| 22:52.24 | WyrM | karelbarel: have you flashed your EZX firmware to something non stock? |
| 22:52.38 | karelbarel | No, I have the original everything. |
| 22:52.49 | karelbarel | I was trying to start with the double boot |
| 22:53.14 | karelbarel | but I even couldt start the kernel alowing me to backup the system |
| 22:54.19 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: hmm, do we have a way to find out the hw revision of the actual board from within the kernel? |
| 22:54.38 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: Does your a780 has GPS or not? |
| 22:54.44 | WyrM | karelbarel: dual boot is not working with the latest kernels. You will need to stick with an older kernel. |
| 22:55.16 | WyrM | stefan_schmidt: this issue is not really related with the hardware. But it IS related to the BP firmware version. |
| 22:55.19 | karelbarel | It's the asian version. I bought it on e-bay and it came fron Thai-wan (I guess) |
| 22:55.24 | karelbarel | It has no GPS. |
| 22:55.44 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: hmm, tricky one |
| 22:56.02 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: ok |
| 22:56.34 | karelbarel | So it's a batery-related problem? |
| 22:58.07 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: More about the detection if the battery is low or not. Turn the system down if it is low. |
| 22:59.30 | karelbarel | the battery was full but I admit it's not new |
| 23:01.57 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: I think your battery is fine. It is the detection that goes wrong. |
| 23:02.26 | stefan_schmidt | karelbarel: It detects a low battery and powers down the device. Even if your battery is full |
| 23:08.29 | WyrM | karelbarel: im checking this issue with the current svn code, but the offending code is already commented out. |
| 23:09.09 | WyrM | karelbarel: with http://people.openezx.org/stefan/images/20080426/ images this shouldnt happen. |
| 23:10.28 | WyrM | karelbarel: and the white screen should not happen if you use the latest boot_usb. |
