d3tul3so er, currently even if auto backlight is set ON, android acts on the light sensor only when initially powering on the screen? even though the sensor is continually polled for values?14:25

arrrghhhd3tul3, just flashed OMGB17:18
*** elesbb has joined #xdandroid17:25
d3tul3oh excellent17:25
d3tul3arrrghhh, is there a tree available for the build...what does the OM in omgb stand for anyway17:26
arrrghhhit is excellent17:26
arrrghhhoh my?17:26
elesbbhey arrrghhh17:26
arrrghhhelesbb, no17:26
arrrghhh:D sorry17:26
arrrghhhOMGB is too entertaining right now.  what's up?17:26
d3tul3arrrghhh, can you check if in OMGB the screen brightness updates on the fly with auto-backlight on?17:27
arrrghhhit even has the electron beam :D:D17:27
arrrghhhd3tul3, sure!17:27
elesbbwhat do you mean no !? :O lol17:27
d3tul3grab a flash light turn on the screen and then flash the light on/off at the light sensor17:29
arrrghhhwell that was really odd17:29
arrrghhhmaking a call was... pretty much what mgross was describing17:29
arrrghhhi got a FC on phone.apk basically17:29
arrrghhhnow my signal says no bars17:30
arrrghhhyet the call went thru17:30
arrrghhhthe UI seems to think it didn't.  but i can hear it on the earpiece.  angry sprint guy17:30
arrrghhhthis is my tester w/o service...17:30
arrrghhhperhaps it's time to flash the main phone :D17:30
arrrghhhhrm17:32
arrrghhhend doesn't seem to be home anymoar :(17:32
arrrghhhwifi works17:34
elesbbhey arrrghhh my wifi doesnt work ...17:34
arrrghhhelesbb, has it ever worked in Android?17:34
elesbbway before yes from memory17:34
arrrghhh...17:35
arrrghhhwell did you change anythign?17:35
arrrghhhanything....17:35
arrrghhhlike when you update kernels (the zImage file) you have to match the modules17:35
arrrghhhd3tul3, shit i'm going to have to go outside i think.  gasp.17:36
elesbbno i didnt change anything except for when the other guy told me to update the latest kernal and modules17:36
arrrghhhalthough the screen seems to update at random.  not when i would expect it to at least.  flooding the sensor with some light hasn't done much.  we'll see what sunlight does.17:37
arrrghhhelesbb, did you remove the old?17:37
arrrghhhand make sure the new modules matches the new kernel...?17:37
arrrghhhthat's very important for wifi.17:37
arrrghhhand if it's never worked, there's a section of the FAQ that mentions a fix.17:37
elesbbalright i'll take a look but im pretty sure it worked17:37
elesbband how do i match them ?17:38
d3tul3arrrghhh, don't worry about it if you don't have an LED light handy to flash at it......you know if the builg code for OMGB is on gitorious?17:38
arrrghhhuhm17:38
arrrghhhi do note17:38
arrrghhhnot*17:38
arrrghhhi think it's in nate's thread17:38
arrrghhhi don't know if the process is the same or not17:38
arrrghhhyou want to build your own nbh...?17:39
d3tul3oh github17:39
d3tul3no i want to peak at their code:)17:39
arrrghhh2.3.5 baby17:39
d3tul3well anyways the reason i was askign is because i figured out how to get Android to make on the fly adjustments in froyo, and everything works great, however i am not sure if this is considered moving away from AOSP17:40
d3tul3as in not sure if that's what happens on native devices17:40
arrrghhhhrm17:41
arrrghhhi don't know how much acl had to change17:42
arrrghhhon the userland side to get this to work....17:42
arrrghhhremove the SD, Android still works.  win.17:43
elesbbarrrghhh, how do i "match" the kernal to the modules ?17:50
arrrghhhfirst, kernel17:51
arrrghhhsecond, they're paired, right?17:51
arrrghhhwhen you download a kernel from glemsom's site17:51
arrrghhhit should come with a zImage file17:51
arrrghhhand a modules-23534523lkj345lkj.tar.gz file17:51
arrrghhhthey are paired17:51
arrrghhhhence you should remove the old zImage and module-2352387.tar.gz files17:51
arrrghhhbefore putting the new ones in17:51
arrrghhhso you know that they match17:52
arrrghhhget it?17:52
elesbbi did that ... though ..17:52
arrrghhhwell that's what i mean17:52
arrrghhhby making sure they match...17:52
elesbbohhh .. sooo why does it still refuse to work for me :(17:53
arrrghhhlol17:53
arrrghhhyou act like i am sitting right next to you, seeing what you've messed up17:53
arrrghhhi don't know17:53
arrrghhhif wifi's never worked for you17:53
arrrghhhthere's a tip in the FAQ17:53
arrrghhhlike i said17:53
arrrghhhif it has worked before, it's unlikely that trick/tip is required, and you've just messed something up17:53
arrrghhhwithout logs, or your assured knowledge i can't help any further17:54
d3tul3later arrrghhh post updates about your experience with omgb17:54
*** d3tul3 has quit IRC17:54
arrrghhhi dun wanna17:54
elesbbwell im positive i didnt personally change anything , i'll take a look at the FAQ sorry for being a pain arrrghhh .17:54
arrrghhhelesbb, well i really can't do much more17:55
arrrghhhunless i had logs that say android can't see your MAC17:55
arrrghhhthen i don't know if you need to do that wifi-nvram.txt trick17:55
elesbbwhen i go into wifi settings android shows me my MAC .. i'll double check the zimage and modules .17:56
elesbbdo i need to check rootfs as well ?17:56
arrrghhhnah17:57
arrrghhhunless you mucked with it17:57
elesbbi only downloaded the latest one . thats it17:57
arrrghhhshouldn't be an issue17:58
arrrghhhbut if it still doesn't work17:58
arrrghhhbreak it down to the basics17:58
arrrghhhrename your data.img to data.bak.  boot again, test wifi17:58
arrrghhhstill busted, start with a fresh bundle17:58
arrrghhhstill busted format the card17:58
arrrghhhstill busted, throw phone out window17:58
arrrghhhbuy new phone17:58
elesbbalright i shall do that . all but the latter lol17:59
elesbbthanks dude17:59
elesbbmy first attempt im just gonna put back the modules and kernal you included in your full bundle17:59
arrrghhhk17:59
arrrghhhmodules might not have extracted correctly too17:59
arrrghhhi always forget that one17:59
arrrghhhi guess i should've started with that one actually18:00
arrrghhhoh well18:00
elesbblol i shall figure it out somehow18:00
elesbboh and is there a way to disable the gsensor ?18:00
arrrghhhusing android w/o SD card.  f yes.18:00
arrrghhhwhy would you want to do a horrible thing like that18:00
arrrghhhand yes, of course there is.  in settings.18:01
elesbbi hate how it rotates the screen on me -,-18:01
elesbbthere is ? i didnt find it .. i'll look harder18:01
arrrghhhunder display IIRC18:02
arrrghhhi'm blowing things up on my phone, so i'm not really going to be too helpful right now.18:02
elesbblol alright . i didnt even think of looking in display . i'll leave you alone now18:03
arrrghhhshit18:03
arrrghhhit seems frozen.18:03
arrrghhhi'm way too impatient for this thing to freeze.18:03
elesbbthats not good ..18:03
elesbbwell im gonna go figure out this wifi issue . thanks arrrghh for everything18:04

arrrghhhmight be a problem.18:38
stinebdno, the problem would be if it were cdma, because cdma blows assnuggets18:41
arrrghhhyeayea18:41
stinebdhow YOU doin18:42
arrrghhhi haz OMGB on my RHOD18:42
stinebdi haz who gives a crap on my atrix18:42
stinebdso there18:42
arrrghhhpulling out the SD card while Android running is strangely empowering.18:42
stinebdyou should really unmount it first18:42
arrrghhhyea18:42
arrrghhhit gave me an error18:42
arrrghhhlol18:42
arrrghhh"sd unmounted unexpectedly"18:43
arrrghhhoops18:43
stinebdi'd be interested in knowing if sd unmount works correctly18:43
stinebdand format actually18:43
arrrghhhon OMGB?18:43
stinebdyeah18:43
arrrghhhok18:43
stinebdalthough who knows what code base they're using for that18:44
arrrghhhunmount works18:44
arrrghhhas i understand it, the thing is mostly AOSP18:44
arrrghhhwith some crap kanged from CM18:44
arrrghhhsounds like us really.18:44
stinebdwe kang stuff from CM that was kanged from other places18:44
stinebdnot the original stuff like cmparts18:45
arrrghhhw00t18:45
arrrghhherasing SD card18:45
stinebdoh i forgot to mention18:45
stinebdyou should back up your sd card first18:45
arrrghhhnooooooooooooo18:45
arrrghhhlol18:45
arrrghhhdon't care.18:45
arrrghhhworks18:45
arrrghhhalong with mass storage18:45
arrrghhhthe system itself is fan-fucking-tastic18:45
arrrghhhbut the RIL... it's not workin so well.  i don't think acl figured out how to get hyc's RIL working properly.18:46
arrrghhhseems like some bastard child form of his RIL18:46
stinebdhyc's ril might depend on some level of preworkage due to haret18:46
arrrghhhhum18:46
arrrghhhi guess we'll figure it out in tiem18:46
arrrghhhi sent acl some logz18:46
arrrghhhnow i need to get back to haret18:46
arrrghhhso i can get ready for this concert18:46

arrrghhhlol18:48
arrrghhhbush/chevelle18:48
arrrghhhgot a bunch of free tickets18:48
stinebdare you hot blooded?18:48
stinebddo you have double vision?18:48
arrrghhhi don't think i'd normally pay to see either.18:48
arrrghhhno meatwad18:48
arrrghhhwithout trying to sound cliche, i do like bush18:48
stinebdpretty sure you are hot blooded actually18:48
arrrghhhthey haven't put out an album in ages18:48
arrrghhhi could care less about chevelle.18:48
stinebdwhich band is the headliner?18:48
arrrghhhi'dassume bush18:48
stinebdi've never heard of chevelle18:49
stinebdunless the band is a car18:49
arrrghhhi shoulda tested reboot into recovery18:49
arrrghhhoh well18:49
arrrghhhchevelle has had a little radio success18:49
stinebdnot on my radio18:50
arrrghhhthe red is probably their most popular18:50
arrrghhhhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trinU3VD1Zo18:50
stinebdyou ever use comodo for ssl certs?18:51
arrrghhhsorry, nope18:51
stinebdwell don't18:51
arrrghhhlol18:51
stinebdi updated my atrix aosp tree to 2.3.7 yesterday18:52
stinebdat least i think it was yesterday18:52
arrrghhhnot really part of my yob18:52
arrrghhhyou need to stop that18:52
arrrghhhand work on XDAndroid :D18:52
stinebdanyway the comodo positivessl cert i use on my mail server stopped validating after the update18:52
stinebdwith the weirdest error i've ever seen18:52
stinebdturns out it was malformed, and continue to be after a reissue18:52
stinebdso i said screw it and went to rapidssl18:53
stinebdasshole comodo18:53
arrrghhhsounds fun18:53
arrrghhhdamnit18:53
arrrghhhi forgot to fix the spacing in all three logs18:54
arrrghhhi only fixed the spacing in the radio log.  oh well.18:54
stinebdweird thing is it worked in the browser (while still showing the same error in logcat)18:54
arrrghhhheh18:54
stinebdbut the mail client just refused to connect18:54
stinebddouble spaced, APA format?18:54
stinebdtwo spaces between sentences, half-inch tabs and all that shit18:55
arrrghhhyea18:55
arrrghhhshould be fun for acl to read18:56
arrrghhhone is fixed, the other two fucked.  lol18:56
arrrghhhoh well18:56
arrrghhhi'm sure i'll send him plenty moar18:56
stinebdconvert it to a pdf with font size 72, then send it to him18:56
arrrghhhlmao18:56

stinebdthey're all the wrong winmo rom18:59
arrrghhhtouche19:02
stinebddid you see the youtube video of the att sgs2 lock screen bug?19:03
arrrghhhno19:03
stinebdit's hilarious19:04
stinebdwhen using a pin or pattern lock, if the device has ever been unlocked since first booting, to bypass the lock screen all you have to do is turn the screen on, let it turn off, then turn it back on again19:04
arrrghhhlol19:05
arrrghhhnice19:05
arrrghhhvery secure...19:05
stinebdsamsung is all about convenience19:05
stinebdrest assured, if you ever have an unexpected lobotomy, you'll still be able to get into your phone19:06
hycbah. Paying for certs. wtf. I make my own19:07
stinebdwell some of us don't own trusted CAs19:07
arrrghhhdon't you have to pay to have them signed by a CA?19:07
arrrghhhlol yea... that.19:08
hycwhy? I just load my CA cert into my clients19:08
stinebdmy clients suffer from a terrible disease that inhibits their ability to do so19:08

arrrghhhugh19:21

stinebdnand gingerbread from acl19:24
arrrghhhhyc, OMGB ^^19:24
hyccool19:24
hycRIL is unstable on NAND?19:24
stinebdarrrghhh: does it boot with a sim installed?19:24
arrrghhhhyc, i think he's using some bastard child of the RIL19:24
arrrghhhnot yours19:24
arrrghhhstinebd, no19:24
hycoh, is this still CDMA only?19:24
arrrghhhCDMA only at this point...19:25
hycoh well19:25
arrrghhhhe said he has an idea how to split it properly19:25
stinebdsim in = arm9 crash on boot19:25
arrrghhhso at least GSM users can boot and try to help...19:25
arrrghhhstinebd, i didn't get that, but i dunno.19:25
arrrghhhi had to pull the SIM to boot tho19:25
stinebdarm9 crash = reboot loop19:25
stinebdwhen talking about nand19:25
arrrghhhyea19:25
arrrghhhit's not ready for GSM yet19:26
arrrghhhhopefully ACL will release that soon19:26
arrrghhhso then everyone can help troubleshoot...19:26
stinebdyou can still boot on gsm without a sim19:26
stinebdjust you obviously have no radio19:26
arrrghhhyea19:26
arrrghhhkinda useless.19:27
arrrghhhtjat19:27
stinebdnot really19:27
arrrghhhder19:27
arrrghhhthat's pretty much where CDMA is right now19:27
arrrghhhi'm not sure what ACL did to/with the RIL, but the version came up quite generic.19:27
stinebdacl is a bad bad man when it comes to rils19:28
hyclol19:28
arrrghhhhttp://pastebin.com/a6dbCvJh19:28
arrrghhhin case anyone is interested in the radio logcat...19:28
hycso he's still got his own version?19:28
arrrghhhi guess19:29
arrrghhhi didn't talk to him much today19:29
stinebdpretty clear what's happening there19:29
hyccan't check right now, rcompiling my mozilla19:29
arrrghhhhe released really late last night, and we've bounced a few emails around.19:29
arrrghhhhyc, no biggie19:29
arrrghhhsupposedly prox work19:30
arrrghhhworks*19:30
arrrghhhbut the RIL is so FUBAR, i can't really test it lol19:30
hyctmo has been doing weird stuff to me lately19:30
arrrghhhlike merging with AT&T?19:30
hycif a call goes to voicemail, I don't get a msg from the caller.19:30
hycthe msg in the vmail is a tmo recording19:31
arrrghhhweird....19:31
stinebdlol awesome19:31
hyc"press 1 to answer, press 2 for blah, press 3 for callierID info"19:31
hycand then it continues with "I'm sorry, the incoming call is no longer available"19:31
arrrghhhi'd press 119:31
stinebdshould probably switch to gvoicemail19:32
stinebdif possible19:32
hycpretty darn useless, anyway.19:32
hychmmm19:32
arrrghhhgvoicemail is tits19:32
hycgvoice, mebbe19:32
arrrghhhi went full blown19:32
stinebdat least you'll actually get voicemail19:32
hycheh19:33
arrrghhhsprint lets you convert your number over19:33
hycyah, saw that19:33
arrrghhhpretty schweet19:33
hycdoes gvoice accept regular SIP calls yet?19:33
arrrghhhdon't think so19:33
stinebdno19:33
hycreally annoying19:33
arrrghhhstill need another provider19:33
arrrghhhi don't see why, other than carriers gettin pissed at them.19:34
stinebdi used a sipgate+gvoice hack orgy on my trip19:34
arrrghhhhrm19:34
arrrghhhi could try that on my tester i guess19:34
hycI've done that before, but there's always a hugely noticeable lag19:34
stinebdand sipdroid19:34
stinebdwasn't bad for me19:34
stinebdactually i didn't notice any lag worse than on a cell phone19:34
hycinteresting19:34
stinebdbut it was on docomo19:34
hycit was unbearable for me. in Ireland, calling back to US19:35
stinebdnot a shitty american carrier19:35
stinebddocomo is among the best in the world in terms of latency19:35
hycand no echo cancellation. nasty.19:35
hyc2-second delayed echo19:35
hycmebbe only 1-sec, but extremely distracting19:35
stinebdecho as in handset feedback?19:36
arrrghhhhrm19:36
arrrghhhperhaps i should start a list of shit that don't work in OMGB for ACL :D19:36
hycmm, well, it shouldn't have been the handset itself19:36
hycbut hearing myself come back a second after I spoke19:37
arrrghhhthat sucks19:37
stinebdweird19:37
stinebdlike when you're talking to someone who has you on speaker19:37
hycyeah19:37
stinebdwonder what would cause that on a sip stream19:38
hycso anyway, my experience with sip to gvoice relays has not impressed me :P19:38
stinebdi did have one problem with it19:39
stinebdthe atrix has a broken audio driver which makes sound choppy if it's not at a specific sample rate19:39
hycHey, when were you most recently in Japan?19:39
stinebdmay 19-2619:39
hycwas looking at a couple phones made by Sharp, coming out on Softbank19:40
hycI know they use 3G 2100MHz19:40
stinebdyeah, all the networks do19:40
hycwondering if they typically support US 3G freq too19:40
hycin their handsets19:40
stinebdnot typically19:40
hycah kinda figured, too bad19:40
stinebdhate to say it, but especially not typically tmo's19:41

hychttp://www.engadet.com/2011/09/28/disney-launches-two-new-android-smartphones-mouse-ears-not-incl/19:46
stinebdhttp://disneymobile.jp/product/dm010sh/19:48
stinebdbeware moonspeak19:48
hycheh19:48
hycwill need google translate19:48
stinebdmostly images19:48
stinebdbut it does have global roaming19:49
hycyes? nice.19:49
hycnow just have to find someone who will sell it and ship to US19:49
stinebdthat's a pretty nice phone19:49
stinebddespite it being disney and all19:49
hyclol19:49
hycand it better be SIM-unlocked19:49
stinebdhmm19:50
stinebdi don't know japan's policies on that19:50
hycyeah, seems like not so straightforward19:50
stinebdhttp://www.physorg.com/news189420769.html19:50
stinebdwho knows if/when that would/will happen19:51
hycsounds promising anyway. and over a year ago19:51
stinebdi guess you could always call softbank after you get it19:52
stinebdor disney or whoever19:52
hyccall and ask for an unlock code?19:52
stinebdyeah19:52
hycyeah that could work19:52
stinebdin whichever language they speak19:52
hyclol19:53
stinebdoh and one more thing to keep in mind19:54
stinebdtheir phones do not do gsm, so make sure whoever gets this is in an area with solid att 3g coverage19:54
hycright19:54
hyckinda makes global roaming dicy huh19:55
stinebda little, but att is on the same wcdma frequency as softbank19:55
hycoh, handy19:55
hycI thought ATT was 190019:55
stinebd1900/210019:56
hycanyway, she's in Europe right now, and she'd actually get a lot of use out of the global aspect19:56
hycbut yeah, the no-2G is a bit of a concern19:57
hycyou used your atrix while you where there? didn't rent a local phone?19:58
stinebdused it with intl roaming19:58
stinebdbut rented a wifi hotspot from softbank19:58
hycah19:59
stinebdwhich spent most of its time on docomo's network heh19:59
hyccute19:59
hycso that meant you only had VOIP service on your phone20:00
stinebdi had cell service but didn't use it20:00
stinebdactually i used it once at the airport before i got the hotspot20:01
stinebdfor the obligatory "we made it alive" call20:01
hycheh20:03
stinebdactually you're right, att is 1900/850, not 1900/210020:07
hycwhere does it say that dm010sh is globel roaming?20:11
stinebdyou still on the page?20:12
stinebdthere's a table (which is an image...) with the heading service20:13
hycyeah20:13
hycok20:13
stinebdright below gps20:13
stinebd国際ローミング = global roaming20:13
hycah hah20:13
hycthe globa icon20:13
stinebdyeah20:13
stinebdactually that says worldwide roaming in the table20:14
stinebdbut i guess that's the same thing20:14
hycgood enough20:14
*** mgross029 has joined #xdandroid20:14
hycnow just to figure out how to buy one. they require passports and all this documentation crap20:14
stinebdcrazy20:16
stinebdi noticed japan is very picky about foreigners20:17
stinebdwe're getting there too20:17
stinebdhmm20:21
stinebdhttp://www.techmistry.com/disney-mobile-dm010sh-3d-smartphone-for-fans-of-disney/20:21
stinebdSupport communications standards: W-CDMA 1500/2100 MHz, GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz20:22
hychuh. so it has 2G20:22
hycbut no US 3G20:22
stinebdyeah thats a weird one20:22
phh1.5GHz ?20:22
phhnever heard20:22
hycit's aan old 2G freq20:22
hycin Japan only20:23
hycjust read about it recently20:23
hycthey decommissioned all the old stuff and reassigned it to 3G20:23
stinebd1500 is a softbank-only frequency20:23
stinebdthey actually have a special name for their APNs on the 1500 towers so that you can avoid them20:23
stinebdwonder where those specs came from20:27
hyc3D display, cool20:29
stinebdeh, they all do that in japan20:29
stinebdeven the dumbphones20:29
stinebdalso the newspapers have porn in them20:30
hycsheesh20:30
hycok, other articles say the phones don't go on sale till December20:30
hycI guess it could be an xmas prez20:30
stinebdwell the rangers tied it20:31
stinebdnot sure why i'm watching it20:32
stinebdi wonder if they simply don't advertise gsm but their phones still have it20:36
hycwould  make sense, it's usually already part of the chipset20:36
stinebdoh docomo actually makes it pretty clear which ones have gsm on their site20:42
stinebdbtw the dm010sh is october20:50
stinebdthe other one is december20:50
hycahh20:50
hycthe 011 says waterproof slider20:50
stinebdhttp://disneymobile.jp/product/20:50
stinebdheh yeah20:50
hycno mention of the dm010 being waterproof?20:50
stinebdactually it specifically states that it isn't waterproof20:51
hycok20:51
hychmm. only 512MB RAM20:52
hycShe's got a Galaxy S now, this could be a step down20:52
stinebdram is cheap, shove a few more sticks in it20:52
hycharhar20:52
hycif we could do that I'd still be using my G120:52
stinebdhonestly the page has none of those good specs20:53
stinebddoesn't even say the ram20:53
hychttp://www.landofdroid.com/2011/disney-release-3-new-android-products/20:53
hycone of the engadget source links20:53
stinebdyeah but i mean the official product page20:53
stinebdit's amazingly terse20:54
stinebdthe only specs, aside from dimensions, are the qsd model and the rom size20:54
stinebdthe pink one looks hot20:55
hycin an effeminate kinda way, I guess :P20:55
stinebd262MB RAM used on my atrix20:56
stinebdmaybe only 512 isn't such a big deal20:57
stinebdalthough with vendor roms it's probably double20:57
stinebdi never really paid attention when i had moto's junk on there20:57
hycheh20:57
hycI was a bit turned off of the Droid3 cause it's only 512M too20:57
hycbut I guess it's still a big step up from the TP220:57
stinebdif it were straight-up aosp i'd say it doesn't really matter20:58
stinebdreally can't trust manufacturers to be reasonable with their ram usage though20:58
hyctrue. all the crap they load on...21:03
stinebdmoto in particular likes to set their blur to never terminate21:03
