cmpxchghm, anyone still using N900 here ?22:42
sicelovery man of us22:43
sicelo*many22:43
cmpxchggot some modem comms issues recently - not sure if network-triggered or a problem developed in the hardware (xtal or power raming etc running out of spec etc)22:43
cmpxchg*ramping22:44
sicelowhat is the issue?22:44
cmpxchgsicelo: emergency calls disabled message in a yellow popup, due to 'a communciations error' - 'you might have to reboot your device'22:45
sixwheeledbeasthardware22:45
cmpxchgon another N900, the simcard is still accepted etc22:45
cmpxchgand it did work once tonight22:45
cmpxchgperhaps time to switch to the other N90022:46
sixwheeledbeastmost things will be a temp fix. normally a reflow is required.22:46
cmpxchgoh wait - I have a reflow oven22:47
cmpxchgbut I worry about the backlight and keypads on the PCB22:47
cmpxchgcamera not to forget22:47
cmpxchgare there multiple hardware revisions to worry about when copying over the NAND flash and eMMC data to the other unit ?22:48
sixwheeledbeastpeople do things like pack the sim or put springs on the modem chips. TMO is the best place to look for thread on the topic. BTW I am not recommending any of the methods above i have never had the issue consistently (yet)22:48

infobotbackupmenu is probably http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=63975, or one-click install handling dependency issues: http://maemo.cloud-7.de/maemo5/et_al/HAM-catalogs/BM.install22:48
sixwheeledbeast^probably the most useful tool for switching devices22:48

infobothmm... tmo is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMO, or http://talk.maemo.org, or http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrestrial_Trunked_Radio#TMO. It's *not* T-MO (see ~T-MO) or trolls, morons, oxen.22:49

cmpxchgthx, both models are N900 RX-5122:53
cmpxchgI also did see a slightly oxidized tiny battery soldered on the PCB - wonder why that is not enough to power an RTC to keep time - schematics of N900 available somewhere ?22:56
sixwheeledbeastyes somewhere I forget where23:11
sixwheeledbeast~bupbat23:11
infoboti heard bupbat is use the capacitive type, LiIon are breaking during 12 months, or http://www.digikey.de/product-detail/de/PAS414HR-VG1/587-2157-1-ND/1959153, or https://hbe-shop.de/Art-2112777-TAIYO-YUDEN-PAS414HR-VA5R-KONDENSATOR006F-33V-STAKED-COIN, or http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=9086423:11
sixwheeledbeast~schematics23:12
infobot[schematics] http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Schematic, or http://www.google.de/search?q=nokia+n900+rx-51+schematics.pdf&oq=Nokia_N900_RX-51_schematics23:12
sixwheeledbeastwell that works23:12
cmpxchgthanks! batt not available, 80 mF replacement needed 3V3... thanks - searching...23:18
cmpxchgorig datasheet https://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/Taiyo%20Yuden%20PDFs%20URL%20links/PAS%20Coin%20Type%20Capacitor.pdf 4.8mm dia 1.4 mm height EDLC type23:28
cmpxchgreplacements need .6 mm more height, variants that are lower have only 11 mF instead of 60 mF23:31
