Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
So, this is my first problem of non-bootable N900 :)
What I had: CSSU Testing Kernel Power 50 So decided to upgrade to Kernel Power 51 Enabled Extras devel repository and upgraded through HAM - no problems so far. Installed USB Mode + dependencies - also no problems except that the usb stick filesystem (FAT32) I tested was not recognized... Decided to install u-boot (to test Nemo) according to the manual at first post of corresponding thread: Installed these 2 u-boot packages in xterm with dpkg -i Enabled Extras-devel repo and installed kernel-power-bootimg with apt-get Now the N900 does not boot up With keyboard closed it just says "Starting kernel" and then soon the device turns off With keyboard open it shows the boot menu, but trying to choose there either the default kernel or kernel power51 the situation is the same - it just says "Starting kernel" and then soon the device turns off. I can boot the Nemo from the sd card. Any ideas what could go wrong? |

@Helmi
looks like we dont need the charger module. Just leave the screen on while charging with bme. I ran Jdownloader for 8h now. |

1. Install flasher-3.5 from here http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-d...-downloads.php 2. Copy attached kernel where u installed flasher-3.5 3. Connect phone with holding 'U' 4. Type in flasher-3.5 console : Option A: Code:
flasher-3.5.exe -k zImage-2.6.28.10-power51 --flash-only=kernel -f -R Option B: Code:
flasher-3.5 -k zImage-2.6.28.10-power51 -l -b Choose which way u want, u can only load kernel without flashing then remove u-boot and install older version. Or just flash.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
worked like a dream, nd m glad kp50 remained in the multiboot option

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
firstly im elated that theres still work being done!!! thanks a lot. however my n900 doesnt show open wifi networks ... or any wifi networks.
a bit too early .. loos like its workig now. thanks for the assist |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
After installing KP51 and USB mode I don't have access to Internal memory as well to SDCard.
Even as i removed USB mode it seems like there is no memory nor SD. When I connect the device to a PC as mass storage, it recognize the device and the SD but ask to enter disc to it. anyone ? |

I do not think I should have said "Thank you very much," Does the application have a BUG, not allow others to put forward? I just tell the truth! Add that I never use the kernel power I am only responsible for testing only! |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Tried to use Joikuspot today. It does not work anymore. I can open it and I can set up a connection with my Laptop, but no data arrives the Laptop. Is the new Power-Kernel the reason? When I used Joikuspot two weeks ago, everything worked perfect.
|
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Try QtMobileHotspot, it's FOSS replacement that works much more reliably.
OTOH, reportedly, Joikuspot works well for other people (still, no good reason for using it, anyway). /Estel |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Thanks. QTMobileHotspot is working very nice. :)

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
i found the following issue
the phone starts getting hot near the USB port side, and the battery starts to drain really fast when monitor mode is started i have tested this with injection drivers loaded and without them and the same happens in either case, i'd leave the phone on a cool table with monitor mode enabled and nothing else running, after about 10 mins when picking up the phone it is really noticeable that it is hot on the left side, after turning monitor mode off it starts to cool down again and the battery dose not drain so fast like before i dont know if the same issue was there with KP50 as i didn't set the wlan to monitor mode long enough to notice this this may be normal due to the Wlan not going into power saving mode while in monitor mode, but i hope if someone can confirm or provide more info about the issue |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
I still have the KP50, and recently having problems with batterry/heat.
Recently installed new CSSU update and bnf but it went fine for a few days. (Read: I didn't yet updated to kp51 but have similair problem, i think it is not the case). To prevent my device wear off I locked it to 500 and plugged out the cable. My batterry temperature dropped from 44 to safe 32 celsius but it discharged. Any help appreciated. |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Seems I'm acting dumb. I recently used a few times my N900 as cellular modem for my Laptop. Last time I mistakenly put the phone where the only fan air output of my laptop is, and it heated up to 52 Celsius. Seems like false alarm of mine. Now I'll try to finish download and not kill my phone, later I will make sure if anything is okay while my phone is in a safer place. I may consider an upgrade of KP but I am hospitalised and there's no free wifi here (and for me GPRS packets are a bit costful).
EDIT: now is 38 celsius on only charger detached aside of not puttingin hot air flow. It seems most of things are okay after an hour (charger was detached for faster cooling). |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Pali, according to:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/kernel-power-settings/ ...there was version 15 of kernel-power-settings (I even have it installed on one of my devices), but it was removed manually by X-Fade. do you know anything about it? It creates kinda fubar situation - now, kernel-power-settings is only one package in whole repositories, that doesn't have -devel installation candidate at all - it lives only in -testing and extras, as version 14. -devel is literally empty, when it comes to kernel-power-settings This situations is present for almost month already, mind You. /Estel |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Either I broken my charging chip/batterry or there actually is a bug/incompability in KP51r1.
I upgraded in last minute, and nokia default batterry meter shows broken "almost empty", while bnf confirmed it is still 33% full (it perhaps uses i2c method once when run and closes). Seems some new driver version miraclously conflict with bme (and now checked my fool steps and were none). Anyway it seems even faster than before perceptfully. Hope that confused bme wouldn't decide to shutdown. Edit: it shows "calibration needed : 0" and measured batterry capacity changed, but I didn't run the calibration script, could it have calibrated naturally via long charging or it indicates something broken here (it could broke something after me beeing so blunt to allow 50 celsius and not shutdown instantly to prevent overheat). It shows "almost empty" again and again, will ccheck after next reboot. |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
I can't boot kp51 with U-Boot. It gets to "starting kernel", then screen goes black, powers off. My U-Boot version is "U-Boot with Nokia PR1.3 kernel 2012.04-1" Maybe there is a newer version?
The stock kernel boots fine. I had kp50 before that, in U-Boot bootimage, this used to work. After updating extras-devel, kp51 became available in HAM, but kernel-power-bootimg is not there - I was able to install it via apt-get though. |

Change: ITEM_OMAPATAG=1 to ITEM_REUSEATAGS=1 because kp51 bootimg item file is applied to work with newest 2012.04-2 version not 2012.04-1 then u-boot-update-bootmenu and happy using. :) P.S why you don't use latest version of u-boot 2012.04-2 ? |

How do I upgrade? After I do, do I still need to make those changes to kp51, or should it work as-is then? |

Of course I meant to create a symlink on your own. Or even better by installation script of kp and then use this "/opt/packet-injection-modules/current" directly (so gconf editing only needed once, maybe also via kp installation, pali?). |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
@misiak,
I think the best would be simply to copy (not symlink) the modules on /lib/modules/whatever-kernels-you-want I don't see the point in having kernel modules under /opt or Mydocs or who knows where. |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel

I still believe they could be symlinked, not placed in /lib/modules/proper-kernel-version/packet-injection-modules , but that's just my oppinion based on stuff I wrote earlier in this post. |

I'm also experiencing battery problem. I was charging it few hours and battery stayed on the same level. after replugging the charger i was able to rechearg battery. Now I'm experiencing increased power drain. I also installed package with gui for USB host mode, nothing else has changed in my system Edit: After a playing a while with different host mode options(and no device connected to usb) i pluged n900 to charger and led was blinking with little almost red light, not normal one - small and barely visible. There is something definitly wrong with new kernel. |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
About my batterry measure bug.
It seems some nokia stuff (or were it CSSU?) couldn't read batterry info while charging behaves properly, and bnf was not fooled by this bug. Both default statusbar widget and custom desktop widget which is set to mimic original batterry meter shows almost empty (the second is supposed to get more detailed info and is showing 5mAh since i felt asleep). Bnf seems to read batterry info most directly and instantly and shows that overnight it discharged from about 400mAh to about 300mAh, and now is saying properly charging while the charger is connected. It also seems bme is not fooled enough to force shutdown. It got 40 celsius now while charging. I really should test my device with powertop... What was proper command to redirect powertop result to file (it would be easier to copy here, and I'm confused with 4 different "send to file" operators in linux shell... Anyway I'm too lazy to rewrite and prefer copy the info by the device)? |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
The phone was turned off due to battery being empty, i plugged the wall charger to charge the phone while it was still turned off ,placed it in a cool place,i did not turn it on at all, after the battery was charged (green LED) i left it connected to the charger for a about 2 hours,
after that time when i picked it up it was really hot, dangerously hot! the battery was hot and so was the left side of the phone, i think i never left it charging while it was turned off before to notice this, now i'm doing all of those test (have a bit of free time) i'm noticing strange things ok so common sense says the phone is off nothing is running, right? the charging chip should stop charging the battery when it detects full charge (either by measuring temp or by the cell reaching 4.2V like any good lithium battery charger to prevent over charging the battery and reducing it's life or in some cases if the battery protection circuit fails the battery may catch on fire) so why it is getting hot after it charged the battery, it should cool down, not keep getting hot! i have KP51 installed for a while now and i'm noticing strange things |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v51 in Extras-Devel
Yeah strange things. I think those are older rare indirect outcoming of bugs. Just now it happens more frequently. There is a deep bug related to charging and kernel which seem to be here since kp49, but until the update to kp51 only 2-4 occurences were catched, including older mine with borked video player when battery were near to entry (reboot and charge up cured the bug temporary then). It seems one of these bug which are conditional bomb (happens only when specific conditions happens, I refer to bug/worm behaviour, not the real bomb). I guess latest CSSU update make such condition much more common AND the bug worsened in kp51. Please remind me proper powertop to file comand because I want to post it here for pali or freemangordon checking if it is good or problem (I'm not that good at reading powertop so I have to post it whole and hope to copy-paste). I have problem at isolating my problem to single cause (there can be at least two causes at once and I'm bad at not doing something coindeincialy).
