| brolin_empey | Vajb: I was going to try calling Samsung customer service again last night but before I could my friend called me and asked me about using his Windows 7 computer to search for text in .csv files so I spent the time learning how to use the findstr program included with Windows because he does not have (GNU) grep because he usually does not use the Command-Line Interface. I guess Samsung customer service is currently closed because it is currently night in | 09:35 |
|---|---|---|
| brolin_empey | North America but I can try calling them again later today. | 09:35 |
| inz | FatPhil_, in the Tampere region, but I'm not parting ways with my N900s (nor N800, nor N810s) | 10:34 |
| Wikiwide | Cellular modem problems. Due to communication error, all cellular functions disabled. To recover, reboot may be needed. | 14:21 |
| KotCzarny | ['] modem dying? | 14:21 |
| Wikiwide | Sounds like it. How to solve this? | 14:22 |
| KotCzarny | or weak battery | 14:22 |
| Wikiwide | Weak battery, well, could be. How to check? | 14:22 |
| KotCzarny | although weak battery mostly results in 'out of service' | 14:22 |
| KotCzarny | if your battery is charged >50%, then it's not the battery | 14:22 |
| Wikiwide | 3.588V, definitely low battery? | 14:23 |
| KotCzarny | well, charge it then | 14:23 |
| KotCzarny | at least for half an hour and check if the modem gets better | 14:23 |
| Wikiwide | Haven't fixed charging port yet. | 14:23 |
| KotCzarny | but as i've mentioned, battery wouldnt cause modem disabling | 14:24 |
| Wikiwide | If it was possible to be on Internet without wireless... But that, again, requires good USB port. | 14:24 |
| KotCzarny | some did heat reflow of the modem | 14:24 |
| Wikiwide | Heat reflow, how? | 14:24 |
| KotCzarny | you still have bt i guess | 14:24 |
| KotCzarny | for network connectivity | 14:24 |
| Wikiwide | Bluetooth isn't particularly useful for Internet access? | 14:25 |
| KotCzarny | not especially mobile solution but would work at home/work | 14:25 |
| KotCzarny | not safe though | 14:25 |
| KotCzarny | for modem tips, check tmo, i guess | 14:26 |
| Wikiwide | At this rate, there might as well be Internet over TRRS. Four pins aren't much, but then, USB has only two data pins... | 14:26 |
| Wikiwide | How much voltage does modem require at peak workloads? I am still hoping it's just a combination of cellular Internet, incoming SMS, and lots of open apps. | 14:28 |
| Wikiwide | 16 windows, and seven of them are web pages. | 14:28 |
| KotCzarny | fun thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=80759 | 14:29 |
| Wikiwide | Once Fxtec arrives, it will be not a moment too soon. Hope it runs Leste... | 14:30 |
| KotCzarny | http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1446893&postcount=41 | 14:31 |
| KotCzarny | this is interesting | 14:31 |
| Wikiwide | Of course, imageshack doesn't have the image. | 14:35 |
| KotCzarny | but reading the thread gives general idea what's community knows | 14:37 |
| Wikiwide | In short, if it's cellular chip, then reflow station may be required. | 14:41 |
| Wikiwide | Weirdly silent after 2015. Is there any record of anybody resolving the problem? With a solution more permanent/reliable than "stick a piece of cardboard for pressure" or "something spring" or "something hammer"? | 14:47 |
| Wikiwide | Because reflow station is difficult to find, but hot air is available at local makerspace. | 14:48 |
| KotCzarny | ~springfix | 15:03 |
| infobot | well, springfix is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1243160#post1243160 and http://www.jabawok.net/?p=14 | 15:03 |
| KotCzarny | darn, she left | 15:03 |
| * sicelo debating if he should use lxc/lxd or docker | 20:00 | |
