dakedres | Hey so I picked up a Droid 4 to try daily driving Maemo Leste | 04:46 |
---|---|---|
Wizzup | great, any questions? | 04:52 |
Wizzup | (also, I'll be back again later, in a few hours) | 04:52 |
dakedres | Anyone know if there's a way around needing a micro sim?? Just to poke around the base android install | 04:57 |
dakedres | Also is it just standard micro sim? the pins look weird | 04:57 |
Wizzup | dakedres: you don't need a sim, but if you want to use it as a phone you kind of do | 08:29 |
sicelo | or maybe they mean that annoying thing with having to touch the four corners on a freshly flashed device | 09:37 |
_uvos_ | yeah with the same sdcard als works in a different droid | 10:45 |
_uvos_ | so als in this d4 just decided to die | 10:45 |
_uvos_ | fun | 10:45 |
maxwelld | > Hey so I picked up a Droid 4 to try daily driving Maemo Leste | 12:54 |
maxwelld | i do that since january. it is hard, but doable. | 12:54 |
_uvos_ | i also daily my d4, altho i do usually also carry a android phone just in case, i usually dont use it besides giveing the d4 lte | 14:23 |
dakedres | My goal is to get away from smartphones haha | 15:07 |
dakedres | All I need is calling and music | 15:08 |
dakedres | All I need is call, text and music | 15:08 |
buZz | dakedres: then why not just a phone? | 15:10 |
buZz | calling leste 'not a smartphone' is weird to me | 15:10 |
dakedres | maemo cool | 15:10 |
dakedres | oh, I'm just going to not use it *as* a smartphone | 15:11 |
buZz | so you're not going to use the touchscreen? | 15:11 |
buZz | where you say 'smartphone' you ment PDA, right? | 15:11 |
dakedres | I mean I don't plan to web browse | 15:11 |
dakedres | or use gps | 15:11 |
dakedres | ect | 15:11 |
buZz | oh, ok, that works pretty well though | 15:11 |
buZz | same with gps | 15:11 |
dakedres | Another part of my motivation was needing to text but I loathe touchscreen keyboards lol | 15:13 |
buZz | :) | 15:15 |
dakedres | > oh, ok, that works pretty well though | 15:33 |
dakedres | What doesn't work well? Camera? | 15:33 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Grab some Symbian and enjoy it :D | 15:34 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Or MeeGo or Maemo. It will be even better, as it's Linux. Will do "not a smartphone but still can do something" very well. | 15:35 |
dakedres | Oh wow | 15:35 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> I use Symbian as daily phone and it's possible :P | 15:35 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> (although can be sometimes hard, but I don't mind. My dad uses Symbian as daily phone too) | 15:35 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> As long as 3G works (works in Poland) | 15:35 |
dakedres | Well I'm atleast pretty sure the droid is 4g | 15:36 |
dakedres | which should still give me very good coverage here in the states | 15:36 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Yes, I'm thinking of using Droid 4 as main phone when I receive it :P | 15:37 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> For now, if 3G dies, I will use Xperia 10 Plus with Sailfish OS | 15:37 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Or F(x)tec Pro1 (with Sailfish too) | 15:37 |
buZz | i wish maemo was as fast as symbian | 15:37 |
buZz | dakedres: cameras doesnt 'not work well' it doesnt work at all on droid4 | 15:38 |
buZz | someone started trying to implement, afaik they never got an image from it | 15:38 |
buZz | dakedres: droid is ONLY 4g on 'verizon LTE' | 15:38 |
buZz | not on the actual 4G the globe uses | 15:38 |
dakedres | what Noooo | 15:38 |
dakedres | Curse you verizon | 15:38 |
buZz | you misspelled motorola? | 15:39 |
dakedres | haha | 15:39 |
buZz | the hw can do it, motorola limited the implementation | 15:39 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Oh no | 15:39 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Sad | 15:39 |
buZz | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 15:39 |
dakedres | that's so pain | 15:39 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> So I will use Sailfish then | 15:39 |
buZz | imho, even 2G is just fine | 15:39 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Well I will miss 3G | 15:40 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Even for visiting Telegram on my Nokia 808 | 15:40 |
buZz | i dont understand what sailfish has to do with limitations of droid4 hardware, but sure | 15:40 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> <Re maemoleste_irc_bot: <buZz> i dont u…> I just mean I will use Sailfish as daily in future | 15:40 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Nothing to do with D4 | 15:40 |
buZz | could you please just chat, not use dumb reply spaqm | 15:40 |
buZz | -q | 15:40 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Sorry, report it to TeleIRC dev, lol | 15:41 |
buZz | i could just kick the bot, np | 15:41 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> Cool... sorry if the bot spams... | 15:41 |
buZz | no, its you | 15:42 |
tg-bridge-bot | <WunderW_PL> "<Re maemoleste_irc_bot: <buZz> i dont u…" is written by bot | 15:42 |
buZz | fcking nonsense | 15:42 |
WunderWungiel | Sorry, I didn't mean to spam | 15:45 |
WunderWungiel | Nevermind | 15:45 |
WunderWungiel | The bot teached me to not use bridges anymore, lol | 15:45 |
dakedres | Is maemo leste slower than maemo? | 15:47 |
buZz | no | 15:48 |
buZz | kernel 6 is way faster than kernel 2 | 15:48 |
dakedres | that's what i figured | 15:49 |
sicelo | you can't really make that kind of comparison | 16:44 |
_uvos_ | i would exect leste to be overall slower on n900, since things hve grown in size and n900 is mostly slow due to ram ressure | 17:15 |
_uvos_ | *pressure | 17:15 |
_uvos_ | that said, leste is mutch faster because you can run it on mutch better hardware ;) | 17:16 |
buZz | i remember the amazing faster desktop i got from moving to kernel 2.x to 3.x , and similar increase from 3.x to 4.x | 17:35 |
buZz | but yeah , that was x86 | 17:35 |
Wizzup | buZz: I think it was kind of nice that we had a wider reach for to the community with hte bot | 17:54 |
buZz | oh, it was from leste? | 17:55 |
Wizzup | no, they added it, but it wasn't just his | 17:56 |
Wizzup | it was brides to the leste telegram group that someone else runs I think | 17:56 |
Wizzup | I also haven't really caught up with the backlog yet, will in a bit | 17:56 |
buZz | i never seen anyone use it | 17:57 |
buZz | beside this one user | 17:57 |
buZz | sorry, just assumed it was their own | 17:58 |
Wizzup | I used it to chat with some folks, but I don't have a good sense of many there are | 17:59 |
sicelo | interesting @als dying off | 23:39 |
