inky | folks, so i need/want to revive 'tablet mode' on maemo. i need it to be in airplane mode but still have wifi. | 00:04 |
---|---|---|
inky | for that there was this project, and with my changes it now builds, here its xml: https://github.com/norayr/cell-modem-ui/blob/main/etc/systemui/cell-modem-ui.xml | 00:05 |
inky | when it builds, the xml is symlinked to /etc/systemui. | 00:05 |
uvos | airplane mode needs to be changed to only disable cellular (i dont think it works atm anyhow) | 00:05 |
uvos | the rules have changed for airplanes and thus all modern phones work this way | 00:06 |
inky | it looks like com.nokia.phone.SSC is not available but com.nokia.cellular_ui is present. | 00:07 |
uvos | i dont think any of this works yet | 00:08 |
uvos | if you want to disable the radio your going to have to ask ofono directly for now | 00:08 |
inky | without dbus? | 00:09 |
uvos | no via dbus, but via its own interface | 00:09 |
uvos | or use ofono-scripts | 00:09 |
uvos | wich will call the dbus interface for you | 00:09 |
inky | i have no idea how to do that. i can figure out i think but i have no background. | 00:09 |
Wizzup | inky: I think we should just update our icd2 to make offline mode allow wifi | 00:09 |
Wizzup | there's no need to have a mode with wifi and modem off I think | 00:10 |
inky | yeah please do that. | 00:10 |
Wizzup | uvos: btw yes offline mode works fine | 00:11 |
Wizzup | it turns off both wifi and modem | 00:12 |
Wizzup | I use it frequently | 00:12 |
uvos | who turns off the modem? | 00:12 |
uvos | inky: i cant look right now but it think the script to turn off the modem is /etc/ofono/scripts/disable-modem.sh or someting obvious like that | 00:12 |
Wizzup | uvos: cellulard | 00:12 |
Wizzup | iirc | 00:12 |
inky | okay, i think we don't need new entry in systemui menu if the offline mode can be modified. | 00:13 |
inky | tablet mode may overcomplicate things. | 00:13 |
inky | and what i was able to build anyway is not showing up. not only doesn't work but doesn't show up in menu. | 00:14 |
uvos | Wizzup: i dont see it | 00:15 |
uvos | https://github.com/maemo-leste/cellulard/blob/master/src/cellulard.c | 00:15 |
inky | thank you for the tor-applet i use it always and it works perfectly. i also modified it a bit and use on my laptop. | 00:15 |
uvos | Wizzup: im not sure anyone is calling ofono to depower the modem | 00:15 |
uvos | bu it gues thats easy to check on device | 00:15 |
Wizzup | I'm confident this happens | 00:17 |
Wizzup | src/libicd-network-ofono.c:flightmode_changed(dbus_bool_t offline, gpointer user_data) | 00:17 |
Wizzup | so it is in libicd-network-ofono | 00:17 |
uvos | its kindof a mess that bits of modem state are there some are in cellulard and some are in sphone/vcm | 00:18 |
uvos | Wizzup: also flightmode_changed seams to be noop or am i missing something | 00:19 |
Wizzup | maybe just try it | 00:22 |
Wizzup | when I put my droid4 in flight mode in the US the battery lasts way longer | 00:22 |
Wizzup | when I don't it keeps searching and the battery doesn't last as long | 00:22 |
Wizzup | it's probably connui I guess | 00:27 |
Wizzup | in any case fmg probably remembers | 00:27 |
inky | maybe it should be discussed. since our community is security oriented maybe some people would like to have full offline mode possibility. | 00:48 |
inky | though i turned off the modem on the pinephone prior to turning it on first time, but i never turned off wifi. | 00:48 |
inky | mac address randomization is another very important thing and i understand it is very hard to solve. | 00:49 |
inky | since icd gets crazy if the mac changes. | 00:49 |
Wizzup | freemangordon: btw fwiw I don't think we had to close the pr here https://github.com/maemo-leste/hildon-status-menu/pull/6 but we can just keep it open during the discussion | 01:09 |
freemangordon | Wizzup: what needs to be discussed? obviously there is an issue in presence-ui applet I am unable to repro. ofc we can reopen, but I don;t see what is the benefit | 07:15 |
sicelo | Wizzup: btw, https://github.com/maemo-leste/leste-config/pull/45 and https://github.com/maemo-leste/status-area-applet-battery/pull/7 are still waiting to be merged :-) | 17:36 |
Wizzup | will do today, ty for reminding me | 17:40 |
sicelo | sure | 21:10 |
sicelo | arno11: btw, i hope N900 also has correct charging LED behavior now? forgot who was the user who reported the issue first | 23:57 |
sicelo | the pending MR's are just for cleanup ... otherwise green LED and status animation should be OK | 23:59 |
