| CatButts | hmmmm, I've bent the pinchers on the battery to grip snuggly on pins | 12:57 |
|---|---|---|
| CatButts | maybe I need to recalibrate battery | 12:58 |
| CatButts | or maybe battery is outright shit | 12:58 |
| CatButts | (replacement with paint/text wiped off) | 12:58 |
| CatButts | it still spontaneously shuts off | 13:00 |
| CatButts | though it reports full battery | 13:00 |
| KotCzarny | do stupid things to poor device, get stupid results? | 13:00 |
| CatButts | it was in the name of science, I assure you! | 13:16 |
| KotCzarny | spontaneous shut offs are mostly related to old battery | 13:18 |
| KotCzarny | when device requires big amps, voltage drops sharply | 13:18 |
| KotCzarny | but that assumes controlled shutdown | 13:19 |
| Vajb | Maybe it could be goog idea to keep log of reported battery voltage, so you can see what is the voltage when device shuts off | 13:26 |
| CatButts | https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1533343&postcount=2596 this looks like a starting point | 13:45 |
| CatButts | oh, better idea, charge battery externally in mangy dumpster Nokia N97 | 14:15 |
| KotCzarny | name it 'love juice machine' | 14:16 |
| CatButts | haha | 14:16 |
| CatButts | it's got black sticky gunk on it, from biodegrading rubber | 14:16 |
| KotCzarny | awful | 14:16 |
| CatButts | I think the rubber is to dampen screen slider | 14:17 |
| CatButts | I wish they'd kept that for the n900 | 14:17 |
| CatButts | the slider that puts screen in diagonal position | 14:18 |
| CatButts | I see + and - on battery, and 3rd unmarked terminal | 14:19 |
| sicelo | but that would biodegrade on N900 too :-) | 14:19 |
| CatButts | is it another - or does battery communicate to phone? | 14:19 |
| KotCzarny | i think he has meant 'diagonal' part | 14:20 |
| KotCzarny | CatButts: yeah, the third pin is for smart battery | 14:28 |
| CatButts | ah, like the third pin on shitty proprietary DRM laptop chargers | 14:30 |
| CatButts | maybe the battery is not being very smart | 14:31 |
| KotCzarny | but it might be as 'smart' as just size indicator or temperature | 14:31 |
| KotCzarny | as charging circuit is in n900 | 14:31 |

| KotCzarny | BSI - Battery Size Indicator | 14:32 |

| KotCzarny | http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/BSI | 14:32 |
| CatButts | ah, BL-4D(N97) is same pinout, so thankfully, I am not burning down house | 14:35 |
| CatButts | oh, Android 10 finally managed to break Flash and Air | 17:07 |
| CatButts | ever-changing security model, methinks | 17:08 |
| clort | hi babies | 23:32 |
| clort | don't you know why maemo was killed? | 23:32 |
| clort | lol | 23:32 |
