Gary_I understand...we have no 3g here and the n900 is too pricey with the ability for not making calls00:00
Wizzupno 2g either?00:01
Wizzupfreemangordon: ok I deleted the acc, rebooted and it came back00:02
Gary_no 2g here as well, tower companies want everyone on 4g/5g so they can force us to buy their phones...crazy00:04
Gary_I'm sure 4g will be fading soon as well00:05
Gary_Japan is shutting down 3g at the end of the month, two of softback phones are now bricks :)00:07
Wizzupthat's quite insane00:07
moparisthebest3g data or only voice? In USA they killed just the voice, you can only make cell calls with VoLTE now00:08
WizzupI've made 2g/2.5 calls just fine in the us00:09
Wizzupa couple months ago00:09
moparisthebestMaybe there are still areas it works? The carriers all officially dropped it in 2021, delayed a year from the original 2020 date00:11
Wizzupin any case, we do support devices with 4g00:12
moparisthebestThat's when I ported my number to jmp.chat to make calls over XMPP, because VoLTE doesn't work on my phone unless I use the stock OS...00:12
WizzupSupporting the 4g modem on the razr will just be a lot of extra work00:13
moparisthebestYou support VoLTE ??? That's different from LTE data00:13
moparisthebestEven lineageos only supports VoLTE on very few devices, OnePlus and some others00:14
Wizzupifi t works on the pinephone on other oses we can probably support it00:19
Wizzupand I think it does work on the pinephone00:19
Wizzupbut I haven't tried00:19
Gary_It works on the pine just fine, 4g that is00:21
Gary_even leste shows 4g...:)00:22
Wizzupyeah00:22
moparisthebestBut that's data, not calling00:23
Wizzupinternet says the modem does it internally on the pinephone00:28
moparisthebestNice, just not all phones do00:36
Wizzupin general cellular calls just work less well than they used to imo00:38
Wizzupin any case, where I live 3g will be supported for a long time00:38
Wizzupupdating jenkins atm..00:40
Wizzuparno11: also, does the phone vibrate for you upon incoming call00:53
Gary_The pine/leste supports VoLTE, the 4th column on the second CLCC line confirms it...+CLCC: 2,1,0,1,0,"",128 --(0 for legacy and 1 for VoLTE)01:15
gnarfaceover on pine64 irc a while ago someone had mentioned the anecdote that after they were able to confirm the late shutdown of their carrier's 3g service, 2g was still functional03:00
gnarfacemaybe for some legacy emergency hardware in the wild or something, was the speculation03:00
gnarfacefor a while in the early days of the pinephone that was a known workaround while 4g support was still broken; forcing the modem into 2g mode03:01
gnarfaceafaik that hasn't been needed for a while though03:02
uvos__xt912 is in exactly the same boat as droid4 its lte modem will never work besides maybe in some carribian islands as it uses a frequency only used by verizon in us and in us its permanently simlocked to verizon who will not activate it09:29
tmlindWizzup: so do you have a mass storage usb gadget configured on your device when pluggin the usb cable and the oops happens?10:51
tmlindi'm looking for some reliable way to reproduce oopses with usb if possible10:53
Wizzuptmlind: I think usbnet, that's the default on leste11:00
tmlindok, and it happens on plugging in the usb cable or at some random point?11:01
Wizzupat some random point while it is plugged in more likely11:01
tmlindok11:01
Wizzupnot necessarily when it is fully charged11:01
tmlindflakey cable or a working usb cable?11:02
Wizzupyeah, so ... I have no idea if this helps but I feel like I've had it more while I was travelling, like when charging in a car or in an areoplane, using the outlets on those transports11:02
tmlindso possibly related to a loose connector and some shaking?11:03
Wizzupcould be, or just how the power is generated11:03
Wizzup(if I plug in my earphones to my thinkpad on the airplane I get a nice noise tone)11:03
Wizzupsorry if I don't remember better, I will have to find what I wrote in the log to get a better memory of it...11:04
Wizzupif it happens again I'll try to write up a bit more detailed piece11:04
tmlindso connected to a computer or just a charger? some chargers can send out usb packets too i think..11:04
WizzupI don't know if it's just usb packets or not, I would assume it's just a charger, but maybe they do some fast mode negotiation11:04
Wizzupthe cables I use aren't power only at least, I think11:05
Wizzup(i.e. they have wires for data)11:05
tmlindor it could be something triggering a bogus usb setup packet11:05
Wizzupright11:05
tmlindusb sniffer would show what goes on if it was reproducable11:06
WizzupI don't have one of these I fear11:06
tmlindyeah me neither, linux kernel can be used except for signal level tracing11:09
tmlindif it's somehow reproducable when connected to a linux pc11:09
WizzupIt's not really reproducable, I will try to plug into the car again every time (I don't use it often)11:10
Wizzupuvos__: maybe we can apply the fix to our stable kernels as well so that I'd at least have the other fix11:10
tmlindwell i only have an old usb1 sniffer which is totally unusable with usb2 issues :)11:10
uvos__Wizzup: fix? what fix/11:21
Wizzupuvos__: this weekend tmlind posted a link to fixing a usb oops11:28
uvos__Wizzup: can you relink it?11:52
Wizzupok11:56
Wizzup13:08 < tmlind> Wizzup: so i thought i looked at the usb kernel oops you reported earlier.. but turns out i likely fixed a different oops i had saved11:56
Wizzup13:09 < tmlind> here's the one i just fixed: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-phy/20240128120556.8848-1-tony@atomide.com/T/#u11:56
Wizzup13:09 < tmlind> uvos: maybe apply that to the m-l kernel?11:56
Wizzup(sorry for the extra highlight)11:56
Wizzupuvos__: I would like to post a new newspost around or before fosdem14:44
Wizzupuh, so the reason I highlighted you14:44
Wizzupcan I use sphone.d to change the sphone loop?14:44
Wizzuplike, can I switch to voicecallmgr using leste-config ?14:44
uvos__not yet14:47
uvos__i would like to at least test the new system firs14:47
uvos__t14:47
uvos__wich needs me to merge the other new code and do a release14:47
uvos__you can change, the loop module sure but not the ofono->vcm switch14:47
Wizzupok14:48
WizzupI want to make a meta pkg for it, but the moment tp-ring is pulled in regular sphone with ofono breaks14:49
Wizzupdue to how tp-ring just takes over14:49
uvos__maybe just patch the poor behavior of ring away14:50
uvos__its really anoying anyhow14:50
uvos__or leave ring out for now14:51
Wizzupring is the essential piece14:51
