MokoMakefile

2008-07-13T15:50:20Z

C.M: /* Building Openmoko with MokoMakefile */ The file is not gone any more

{{Languages|MokoMakefile}}

MokoMakefile is a Makefile which saves lots of work when setting up an Openmoko build environment.
By automating the setup process of a new Openmoko build environment, it provides an environment which is configured the same for all the existing developers and should therefore be preferred over manual procedures or individual setup procedures.
It brings the same repeatability to build environment creation and maintenance as that which the BitBake scripts bring to [[OpenEmbedded]] ease and standardize the process of building OpenEmbedded.

Unlike the manual process described at [[Building Openmoko from scratch]], MokoMakefile does not install anything into your system (it can and should be started as normal user).
MokoMakefile is a wrapper around all that is required to make it easy to set up and maintain a development environment that fully complies with the setup instructions published by Openmoko.

MokoMakefile is developed by [[User:RodWhitby|Rod Whitby]] - it is not an official product of Openmoko (although I would be happy for them to pick it up and use it internally). If there is any discrepancy between the [[Openmoko2007.2#How_to_build|official Openmoko build instructions]], and the operation of the MokoMakefile, then you should consider the official instructions to be correct.

The MokoMakefile is able to build both OM-2007.2 and QTopia-X11 images.

MokoMakefile also builds the QEMU-based Neo1973 emulator as part of the build process and has make targets to install the Openmoko images into it and run it. These commands can also be used without downloading and building the whole Openmoko OpenEmbedded distribution. This part is described in [[Using QEMU with MokoMakefile]].

== Requirements for building Openmoko ==
Independent on whether MokoMakefile or a manual process is used to setup an Openmoko build environment, there are several requirements which must be fulfilled in order for the Openmoko build to succeed:

* RAM: The build host needs to have at least 512MB of RAM, and about the same amount of swap. Some packages built by OpenEmbedded like busybox are built by compiling all source files into one binary which causes gcc to grow beyond 300MB of size and no part of this memory may be on swap for the compile to finish in predictable time. For busybox, this can be turned off, but turning this off means that busybox will not as well optimized by gcc.

* Disk space: You need about 12 GB of available disk space for the Openmoko build to succeed (see below for a tip on how to reduce this).

* Time: The initial build takes at least 5 hours (on 2GHz core2duo without multiprocessor optimization) and may take several days on slower machines.

=== Required software ===

Some distribution specific hints on preparing your build host for building OpenEmbedded are on http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro but they may be outdated, incomplete and do not cover everything which Openmoko needs to build.

A good guide is [[Building Openmoko from scratch#Build host prerequisites|the section on build host prerequisites]] in [[Building Openmoko from scratch]]

If you forgot anything which OE needs itself, OE will tell you shortly after you start building, but it does not check build dependencies of Openmoko, so you either have to install them before starting or install them after the build failed. OpenEmbedded will continue where it stopped when you restart the build afterwards.

==== Package requirements by distribution ====
Your distribution needs to provide these commands in order for OpenEmbedded to start building:
subversion texi2html texinfo help2man

Openmoko needs the development packages (with header files, development libraries and tools) in order to finish building:
ncurses zlib (or libz) OpenSSL GTK++

Because there are bugs in the interaction of QEMU and GCC-4, you'll need a copy of gcc-3.x installed as well.

===== Debian / Ubuntu =====
apt-get install subversion build-essential help2man diffstat texi2html texinfo cvs gawk cogito

apt-get install libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libgtk2.0-dev
# To prevent errors in host validation
apt-get install ca-certificates
# For Openmoko 2007.2 using BitBake-1.8.8:
apt-get install python-pysqlite2 sqlite3 sqlite3-doc python-pysqlite2-dbg
# For building faster
apt-get install quilt python-psyco ccache
# For qemu, install a second compiler for bug avoidance; MokoMakefile knows to look for it.
apt-get install gcc-3.4 g++-3.4 libsdl1.2-dev lynx netpbm dosfstools

===== SuSE =====
For building Openmoko on 10.3, you need
gcc-c++ ncurses-devel zlib-devel libopenssl-devel gtk2-devel subversion diffstat texinfo help2man
For MokoMakefile to not fail on compiling qemu-user, you need to use gcc33:
wget download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/gcc/openSUSE_Factory/i586/{cpp,gcc}33-3.3.3-41.8.i586.rpm
rpm -Uhv {cpp,gcc}33-3.3.3-41.8.i586.rpm

See also the [[Talk:MokoMakefile#Building_on_SuSE_Linux_10.3-AMD64|Talk page on Building on SuSE Linux 10.3-AMD64]]

10.1 and 10.2: same packages as 10.3, but install <code>openssl-devel</code> instead of libopenssl-devel.

==== For all distributions ====
As the QEMU-based neo1973 emulator is also built as part of the build process started by MokoMakefile, so you need gcc-3.3 and other packages for building QEMU installed. See [[Using QEMU with MokoMakefile#Build requirements|the build requirements section]] in [[Using QEMU with MokoMakefile]] for information on the required software.

If you are having problems compiling QEMU and do not need it, you can disable building of QEMU by adding following line to build/conf/local.conf file:
ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0"

===== Proxy =====
Users behind a proxy should ensure that their proxy is configured in their wgetrc file as the http_proxy environment variable is unset by MokoMakefile.

== Building Openmoko with MokoMakefile ==

1 - Create your $OMDIR directory (note that you can change ~/moko to any directory you like. If you have your ~moko dir mounted from a different file system, be sure to edit /etc/mtab to add the 'exec' permission to the file system, else bitbake will fail with error messages stating that /usr/bin/env is an invalid interpreter):
mkdir ~/moko ; cd ~/moko
2 - Grab MokoMakefile:
wget http://www.rwhitby.net/files/openmoko/Makefile

If that doesn't work, try

wget http://svn.projects.openmoko.org/svnroot/mokomakefile/trunk/Makefile

{{note|MokoMakefile uses BitBake 1.8.8 which requires python-sqlite2 and sqlite-3.3 or later. Users of SUSE Linux 10.1 can update to [http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/suse/i586/sqlite-3.3.8-14.i586.rpm the version of openSUSE 10.2]}}

3 - Set up the environment:

make setup

If you want to make the [[ASU_Feature_Plan|ASU]], at this point you need to edit your Makefile. Change:
OM_GIT_BRANCH := org.openmoko.dev
to say
OM_GIT_BRANCH := org.openmoko.asu.dev
or
OM_GIT_BRANCH := org.openmoko.asu.stable
And, for the FSO use:
OM_GIT_BRANCH := org.openembedded.dev

4 - Start building. Before starting a lengthy make process, check the Tips section below for how to make Make multicore aware. You may want to modify the build/conf/local.conf file for your target (emulation/chroot) environment:
make openmoko-devel-image
(or use "make openmoko-qtopia-x11-image" if you're building the ASU)
(or use "make fso-image" if you're building the FSO)

''Hint:'' The images build with this command can be found under {$OMDIR}/build/tmp/deploy/images/neo1973

This will set up the recommended directory structure as described in [[Building Openmoko from scratch]], will download all the required software (from the right places with the right versions), and will immediately start building an image.

Once you have done this, you can choose to continue using the MokoMakefile to initiate your subsequent builds, or you can go into the build directory and run bitbake commands manually. The choice is yours.

==Updating the environment==
For easy maintenance of your build environment the following commands are available.

1 - To update the MokoMakefile to the latest version:
make update-makefile

2 - To make sure that any recent changes to the build directory structure have been applied:
make setup

3 - To update the Openmoko repository checkout and the MokoMakefile patches to the latest version:
make update

A quick way to rebuild a new image with the latest updates:
make update-makefile && make setup update openmoko-devel-image

==Build issues==
First, make sure that the problem is reproducible after running

make update-makefile && make setup && make update

then run

make clean-package-<foo>

(where you replace <foo> with the name of the package which is failing)

and finally

make openmoko-devel-image

With luck - you should now have images in your $omdir/build/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/neo1973/ directory.
You can then [[Flashing openmoko||flash these.]]

If not, and you can get the error to occur three times in a row after running that sequence of commands (including the update and setup steps) three times, then feel free to report it to rwhitby in #openmoko on [http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Development_resources#IRC IRC].

If you have chronic build problems, cleaning your environment variables and re-running the build from scratch may help. The following script should remove all non-essential variables; you should also manually trim your path to the minimum.
`env | grep -Ev '^SHELL=|^TERM=|^OLDPWD=|^USER=|^USERNAME=|^PATH=|^EDITOR=|^LANG=|^HOME=|^DISPLAY=|^_=' | sed 's/^$.*$=.*/unset \1/'`

(you must include the backtics)

===Known MokoMakefile errors ===

===Fixes for distribution/environment-specific or isolated issues===

Work-arounds for temporary or isolated problems can be found and should be added to the [[Talk:MokoMakefile|Discussion page]] which is associated with this page. As they are fixed, they will be removed from that page.

==Tips==
*Make sure umask is set to 0022 before you run "make setup"

*You can reduce the amount of consumed disk space significantly by adding
INHERIT += "rm_work"
in your local.conf (e.g. ~/moko/build/conf/local.conf). This will remove the contents of each build/tmp/work/*/<package> directory after the corresponding package builds correctly. As of 10/16/07, this appears to be present in local.conf by default.

*If a certain package does not build due to corrupted download or some such try to remove the sources and rebuild it.
rm sources/<package>*
cd build
. ../setup-env
bitbake -crebuild <package>
after that your build might just work again.

*For people with multiple CPU's (or dual-core ones) this small patch might be useful to build things faster.
Edit the local.conf and add the following lines:
PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 4"
BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4"

Change the PARALLEL_MAKE and BB_NUMBER_THREADS values to something that suits better if it chokes your machine.

* I have some problem with the parallel building, mkfs.jffs failed to build the image because the directory was modify while the building of the fs. [[User:Patrick.hetu|patrick.hetu]] 02:19, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

*For amd64 host users you need the patch from http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1765 to build db3-native

* If you encounter an error related with the qemu-native package and not compiling for the qemu, you can edit the build/conf/local.conf file and add ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0" line to avoid the error.

* To prevent building tons of locales, add a line like this to local.conf:
GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES = "en_US.UTF-8 nl_NL.UTF-8"

* To not build any binary locales at all, add this to local.conf:
ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0"

* If you want to rebuild the package indexes (for instance, after compiling a new version of a package) without building <code>openmoko-devel-image</code>, run <code>make build-package-package-index</code>.

[[User:Wurp]] will update this to be a little more comprehensible, but maybe it can help someone as-is in the meantime:
* If MokoMakefile always fails on some fetch in zlib, just find the binary somewhere, add it to the downloads or sources directory manually (create the .md5 matching file if necessary), and retry.

=== Useful commands ===
Here is the list (not complete) of useful MokoMakefile commands (actually make targets) and a short description of each one. These should be run inside $OMDIR directory.

; make openmoko-devel-image : build the full development image

; make openmoko-devel-tools : build statically-linked [[dfu-util]] and [[openocd]] binaries

; make openmoko-toolchain : builds [[toolchain]]

; make qemu : builds qemu, downloads flash images from official repository, flashes qemu emulated Neo1973 and runs emulator (see also [[Openmoko under QEMU]]).

; make qemu-local : same as ''make qemu'', but uses locally built images instead of official ones.

; make run-qemu : runs qemu with usb keyboard ''(note: qemu must first be built!)''. This target starts the emulator with some predefined set of options. If you need to start it with other options (enable telnet, etc), see [[QEMU_command_line]].

; make build-package-<package name> : buids ''<package name>'' package

; make update-makefile : updates MokoMakefile

; make clean-package-<foo>: cleans the "<foo>" package

; make setup : to make sure that any recent changes to the build directory structure have been applied

; make update : to update the Openmoko repository checkout and the MokoMakefile patches to the latest version

==Developing with MokoMakefile==

{{note|If using MokoMakefile with OM2007.2 then references to $OMDIR/openmoko should be replaced with $OMDIR/openembedded. Also references to tmp/work/armv4t-linux should be replaced with tmp/work/fic-gta01-angstrom-linux-gnueabi}}

For the following explanations $OMDIR is the directory where there Makefile puts all the stuff.

To make in-tree changes and have them built and used by qemu:

cd $OMDIR/openmoko
quilt new descriptive-patch-name.patch
quilt add trunk/src/name-of-file-to-change # do this for every file you are about to modify
...make the changes...
quilt refresh # this creates a file in $OMDIR/patches/openmoko-HEAD/ and updates the quilt series file there

Note: Do '''NOT''' use absolute paths as this confuses quilt and will get you a diff of the file against /dev/null!

To build the changes and have them used by qemu:

make build-qemu
make flash-qemu-local
make run-qemu

If you want to modify applications instead of the openmoko toolchain, this is what you have to do (example: openmoko-messages):

cd $OMDIR/build
. ../setup-env
bitbake -c unpack openmoko-messages
cd tmp/work/armv4t-linux/openmoko-messages-0.0.1+svnnow-r2_2276/openmoko-messages/
''...make the changes...''
cd -
bitbake openmoko-messages

Then continue with MokoMakefile usage.

If you want to add an application to your openmoko distribution, do this:
All file edits should be done using quilt as described above. That way a patch can easily be submitted to the openmoko project.
First, create a directory that will correspond to your package and edit a '''.bb''' file in there:
cd $OMDIR/openmoko/
quilt new mycoolpackage.patch
mkdir trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage
quilt add trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage/mycoolpackage_1.bb
quilt edit trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage/mycoolpackage_1.bb

The file should have the following content:
DESCRIPTION = "This is a cool package"
SECTION = "username/mycoolpackage"
PV = "1"

inherit autotools

SRC_URI = "http://www.example.com/download/mycoolpackage-1.tar.gz"

Explanation:
* DESCRIPTION - Just a short text explaining the package
* SECTION - I have no clue, but I'll use username/mycoolpackage for now
* PV - Package Version
* inherit autotools - The package can be compiled by './configure && make && make install' so we tell MokoMakefile to do it this way.
* SRC_URI = ... - This is the download location of the package source. It's imperative that the tar.gz contains a directory called '''packagename-packageversion''' (in this case: mycoolpackage-1) so that MokoMakefile can find it automatically or the build will fail.

This is not all. We also need to tell MokoMakfile that it needs to build and include the package in the image. To do this, do
$OMDIR/openmoko# quilt edit trunk/oe/packages/tasks/task-openmoko.bb
Here, increase the value '''PR''' by one and add '''mycoolpackage \''' (with the backslash!) just before the line reading '''# update-alternatives \'''.

Now run
quilt refresh
cd ..
make update openmoko-devel-image

And if everything's alright you should now have an OpenMoko image to flash to your phone or run in qemu as described above.

=== Hello World application ===

There is a [[Building a hello world application|Hello World!]] tutorial available too.

==Testimonials==
MokoMakefile is recommended by 4 out of 4 new developers on #openmoko, with testimonials such as "For some reason last night I couldn't get my manual install of everything to work (bb complained about my bbpath I think) ... but with your makefile, it works great!", "MokoMakefile rocks!", "Wow this build system is nice - it just seems more polished than my gumstix toolchain buildroot system", and "make openmoko-devel-image :) - no magic there".

Neo 1973 GTA01 Power Management

2008-02-01T19:58:24Z

C.M: link to discharge graph

{{InProgress}}
This page details the power management of the Phase 1 Neo1973. Much of it is inapplicable to earlier models.

Power management is of utmost concern to any mobile device.
Battery power is quite limited, so we need to make sure we try our best to conserve it. (See also [[Power management requirements]].)

This is very much unimplemented at the moment.

This page tries to describe the various power management features of the [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973 Hardware]], their states, transitions, etc. First, we start by describing the power states of the individual hardware components. Then we look at it from a System Integration point of view.

== S3C2410 SoC ==

The [[Neo1973 Power Management#S3C2410 SoC | S3C2410 SoC section]] is an overview of the S3C2410 power states or modes and their capabilities. The S3C2410 has the following modes:

==== System design considerations ====
In order to fully support Power_off mode, we need to
* Be able to switch off VDDi/VDDiarm/VDDi_MPLL/VDDi_UPLL separately from VDDalive

== PCF50606 PMU ==

This is an overview of the PCF50606 power modes / state transitions

=== NOPOWER ===

Condition: Vbat < Vverylowbat && Vback < Vlowback && Vchgvin < Vlowchg

Human-Readable: If main battery voltage < 2.7V and backup battery voltage < 1.3V and charger voltage < 2.7V

=== SAVE ===

Condition: Vbat < Vverylowbat && (Vback > Vlowback || Vchgvin > Vlowchg)

Human-readable: If main battery voltage < 2.7V and at least backup battery voltage > 1.3V or charger voltage > 2.7V.

=== STANDBY ===

Condition: Vbat > Vverylowbat

Human-readable: If main battery voltage > 2.7V

=== ACTIVE ===

Condition: Vbat > Vlowbat
Human-Readable: If main battery voltage > 2.8V (configurable up to 3.4V)
Transition from STANDBY to ACTIVE: If ONKEY button is pressed, or RTC Alarm, or EXTON or charger insert or pen-down by touchscreen (we don't use the PMU TS controller)

== JBT6K74 LCM ==

=== Deep Standby ===

In this mode, only the supply power is activated

=== Sleep ===

Holds register data with clock stopped

=== Normal ===

Fully powered up and operational

== System Level ==

This is a description of the system-level power management.

=== System Power states ===

In order to do system-level power management, we need to introduce state definitions with their according state names. The state names are prefixed by SYS_POWER_.

=== Wake-up reasons ===

In the following events, we want the main CPU to be able to be woken up from Power_off (SYS_POWER_SLEEP) state:

==== Events from GSM ====

* Incoming phone call
* Incoming SMS
* Loss of network signal

===== Implementation =====

The GSM daemon configures the GSM Modem so as to wake the CPU when events happen.

The S3C2410 has the EINT0 pin of the S3C2410 connected to the GSM modem, which wakes it on configured events.

==== GPIO from Bluetooth ====

PIO_2 of the DFBM-CS320 is connected to GPC7 of the s3c2410. 
PIO_5 of the DFBM-CS320 is connected to GPC5 of the s3c2410. 
BT_EN of the DFBM-CS320 is connected to GPB5 if the s3c2410. [http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/doc/hardware/GTA01Bv4/gpio.txt]

==== Button Press ====

If somebody pushes either the [[Neo1973 Aux Button]] or the [[Neo1973 Power Button]], the system shall wake up.
===== Implementation =====

====== Power Button ======
During suspend, the PMU is configured to allow PWRONF events to generate interrupts to the CPU.
(This is if PWR_IRQ is the internal signal from the PMU, mentioned in gpio.txt)

====== Aux Button ======
The Aux button is connected the EINT6 pin, which can wake-up the CPU from Power_off.

This means that resuming on Aux button will work out-of-the-box

==== Charger Events ====

If a charger plug (or any other USB device) is connected, the device shall resume and update the battery [charger] status. Also, charger errors such as over/undervoltage, over/under-temperature shall be reported.

===== Implementation =====
During suspend, the PMU is configured to allow EXTONR,CHGERR and related events to generate interrupts to the CPU.

In GTA01Bv4, the PMU IRQ is connected to EINT9.

{{note|Up to GTA01Bv3, the PMU IRQ is connected to EINT16, i.e. an interrupt source that cannot wake-up from Power_off mode!}}

== Kernel API ==

== Userspace API ==

== Approximate power draw of various subsystems ==

In P0 and P1 phones, the battery has a total of 1200mAh, at 3.6V. This is approximately 3500mWh, once power supply losses are taken into account. The figures below are estimates from datasheets.

These do not take into account the severe hardware bugs of phase 0 hardware, which severely affect power use.

* LCD
** 150mW with backlight at full brightness
** 15mW with backlight at 10%
* CPU
** 320mW @ 200MHz
** 450mW @ 266MHz
** 140mW @ 200MHz idle.
** 50mW @ 12MHz (slow mode)
*** These include fudge factors for RAM and other systems, from the CPU datasheet.
*RAM 600mW at 600Mbytes/sec, power use broadly proportional to transfer rate.
* Bluetooth
** 63mW @ Tx Burst (file transfer, send)
** 36mW @ Rx Burst (file transfer, receive)
** 3.6mW @ Idle, beacon only
*** Based on the datasheets provided
* GSM ?
**Idle, but connected to network, 45mW
**Active on a call - up to 600mW, closer to tower less.
* GPS
** 45mW
*** Rough measurement

Other clock speeds are possible (in the 33.75-266Mhz range) by setting the PLL, however, the datasheet strongly recommends these, and recommends contacting samsung for speeds not listed above.

This would imply that with the CPU constantly on in low power mode, GPS and GSM blipping on and off, and display off, the worst case power consumption is probably around 70mW, leading to a battery life of 2 days.
If the CPU is turned off, battery life rises significantly.

With everything on, playing video with sound, for example should get well over 3 hours. (500mW LCD + 320mW CPU + 200mW audio + 50mW GPS. 4.5Wh at 1.1W draw)

Both voltage and clock speed to the CPU core can be altered.
Exactly how this will work with the hardware is yet to be determined.
It is possible that it may be capable of playing MP3s with the CPU clock at 60Mhz. This would considerably extend battery to well over 10 hours. Optimistically >24 hours of mp3.

The lowest power state I have gotten the Neo1973 phase-1 to run in is 90mA or so, for a life of some 12 hours.
This is with backlight, GSM modem, bluetooth, GPS, off, the CPU clocked at 100Mhz, and undervolted to 1.8V, connected over usb-net (not powered via USB)

8 hours playing mp3 at moderate volume. (same caveats as above.)

I played with old ampermeter, old nokia 3110 (as a power supply) and phase0 neo1973 a bit. It appears to eat 1.02 mW while powered off, 1.02W while booted (backlight on), ~0.51W while sleeping (with backlight on) and 1.4W while loading applications.

== Discharge graph ==
[[User:JoSch|JoSch]] did a graph of battery volt versus time that can be found [http://rabenfrost.net/openmoko/battvolt2.png here].

== Logging battery parameters to troubleshoot charging ==

'''WARNING'''

'''After installing and starting this script my Neo battery went flat in < 1 hour. Previously it was fine even overnight. If your battery is so flat that the Neo will not boot then leave it plugged in to a USB port for 15-20 minutes before powering up.'''

Some neos have managed to discharge their battery down to empty while off, plugged in, and supposedly charging from a 500ma-capable usb device. In order to help figure out how the state of charge changes while charging, running of battery, sleeping on battery, and sleeping while connected to usb, download two scripts in http://wile.org/stuff/power.tar Put the power-watch script in /usr/local/bin/ and the powerlog script in /etc/init.d, then

# ln -s ../init.d/powerlog /etc/rc5.d/S15powerlog

so that it starts up with the neo.

The script logs the time, battery voltage, charging current, battery temperature, charging mode, bluetooth-on status, gps-on status, gsm-on status, and backlight brightness numbers. The [[Kernel#Battery_charging_current|kernel page]] claims the charging current is in ma, but that does not appear to be the case for all builds? eg 2.6.21.6-moko10. The battery temperature does not always appear to be in degrees C, either.

After a few runs we can calibrate volts-to-remaining power, and then estimate off or sleep current draw and charging rate by observing the power drop [or rise] vs time between successive os boots.

Neo1973 Debug Board v2/Unbricking

2007-12-18T18:24:05Z

C.M: Clarify that just y isn't enough

This page describes a manual procedure for recovering a "bricked" Neo1973 GTA01Bv4 phone, using the [[Neo1973 Debug Board v2]]. You may prefer to use the [[Devirginator]] to perform an automatic version of this procedure.

=== Preconditions ===

Please read and understand this entire procedure before performing any of the steps.

==== Charged Battery ====

First, make sure that your problem really is related to u-boot or its environment. The most common cause of an unresponsive Neo1973 is a deeply-discharged battery. See [[Neo1973_Battery_Charger#Neo1973_emergency_charging]] for more information.

==== Debug Board ====

Please connect your debug board as described on the [[Neo1973 Debug Board v2]] page. This procedure will refer to the following terminal windows:

===== openocd console =====

This is the window in which you are using "telnet localhost 4444" to connect to the openocd program.

===== serial console =====

This is the window in which you are using a terminal emulator to connect to /dev/ttyUSB1.

===== USB console =====

This is the window in which you are using a terminal emulator to connect to /dev/ttyACM0. Note that this device is only present when u-boot is running, so you will have to connect and dis-connect your terminal program at the appropriate times.

==== Images ====

Before starting this procedure you should collect the software images that you will write to the Neo1973:

===== u-boot =====

You should use a recent version of u-boot, and it must be the one for your model of phone (e.g. gta01bv4). The actual filename will be similar to "u-boot-gta01bv4-1.3.0+git20071214+svnr3648-r1.bin" but this procedure will refer to it as "u-boot.bin"

As of 2007-12-15 there is no "known good" version of u-boot for the GTA01, but it is hoped that one will be available in the near future.

NOTE - this procedure assumes that you are using a modern u-boot in which the default console is on USB. Older versions have a default console on the serial port, so some (hopefully fairly obvious) modifications to the procedure would be required.

===== lowlevel_foo =====

You need a version of this package that matches your u-boot. The actual filename will be similar to "lowlevel_foo-gta01bv4-1.3.0+git20071214+svnr3648-r1.bin" but this procedure will refer to it as "lowlevel.bin".

===== splash.gz =====

This is a compressed splash-screen image.

===== uImage and rootfs =====

These are the standard kernel and root-filesystem images that you will flash to your phone at the end of the procedure.

=== Procedure ===

The unbricking steps are shown below. You should be watching the '''serial console''' throughout this process, although you will not actually use it to enter any text.

From the '''openocd console''', first reset and halt the CPU.

> reset halt
> Target 0 halted
target halted in ARM state due to debug request, current mode: Supervisor
cpsr: 0x600000d3 pc: 0x00000000
MMU: disabled, D-Cache: disabled, I-Cache: disabled

Next, the lowlevel.bin image must be used to initialize the Neo1973's RAM controller:

> load_binary lowlevel.bin 0
280 byte written at address 0x00000000
downloaded 280 byte in 0s 102067us
> bp 0x33f80000 4 hw
breakpoint added at address 0x33f80000
> resume
Target 0 resumed
> Target 0 halted
target halted in ARM state due to breakpoint, current mode: Supervisor
cpsr: 0x600000d3 pc: 0x33f80000
MMU: disabled, D-Cache: disabled, I-Cache: enabled

Load the u-boot image into RAM:

> load_binary u-boot.bin 0x33000000
214860 byte written at address 0x33000000
downloaded 214860 byte in 16s 533236us

Hold down the Neo's Aux button (to prevent the Neo from trying to boot the kernel) and run u-boot:

> resume 0x33000000
Target 0 resumed

At this point you should see some output like the following on the '''serial console''':

U-Boot 1.3.1+git20071214+svnr3648 (Dec 14 2007 - 09:36:50)

DRAM: 128 MB
NAND: 64 MiB
*** Warning - bad CRC or NAND, using default environment

Video: 640x480x8 31kHz 59Hz
USB: S3C2410 USB Deviced
mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
Clearing SETUP_END
Clearing SETUP_END

and you should also see a small penguin on the Neo1973 screen. If not, go back to the "reset halt" step and try again.

Now connect to the '''USB console'''. The first thing to do here is to clear your entire NAND flash and update the bad-block table.

{{warning|This will erase your entire device, although it should preserve your existing bad-block table. See [[NAND_bad_blocks]] for more information}}

GTA01Bv4 # nand createbbt
Create BBT and erase everything ? <y/N>
Skipping bad block at 0x03ff0000
Skipping bad block at 0x03ff4000
Skipping bad block at 0x03ff8000
Skipping bad block at 0x03ffc000

Press y and Enter...

Creating BBT. Please wait ...

Next, create the environment variable that defines the NAND partition table:

GTA01Bv4 # dynpart
mtdparts mtdparts=neo1973-nand:0x00040000(u-boot),0x00004000(u-boot_env),0x00200000(kernel),0x000a0000(splash),0x03d1c000(rootfs)

Next, copy the u-boot image from RAM to its flash partition:

GTA01Bv4 # nand write.e 0x33000000 u-boot

NAND write: device 0 offset 0x0, size 0x40000

Writing data at 0x3fe00 -- 100% complete.
262144 bytes written: OK

Set and confirm the environment offset:

GTA01Bv4 # dynenv set u-boot_env
device 0 offset 0x40000, size 0x4000
45 4e 56 30 - 00 00 04 00
GTA01Bv4 # dynenv get
0x00040000

This step was successful if the 'dynenv get' result is equal to the 'offset' shown above. The actual values may differ from what is shown here.

Now temporarily set the "bootdelay" environment variable to disable auto-boot, then save the environment:

GTA01Bv4 # setenv bootdelay -1
GTA01Bv4 # saveenv
Saving Environment to NAND...
Erasing Nand...Writing to Nand... done

Disconnect from the USB console. From the '''openocd console''', reboot the Neo1973.

> reset
> Target 0 halted
target halted in ARM state due to debug request, current mode: Supervisor
cpsr: 0x200000d3 pc: 0x00000000
MMU: disabled, D-Cache: disabled, I-Cache: disabled
> resume
Target 0 resumed

You should again see some text on the serial console, and a penguin on the screen. You now have a DFU-capable device, so you can load the remaining images:

./dfu-util -R -a splash -D ./splash.gz
./dfu-util -R -a kernel -D ./uImage-neo1973-latest.bin
./dfu-util -R -a rootfs -D ./openmoko-devel-image-fic-gta01.jffs2

The final step is to go back into the '''USB console''' and set some more environment variables:

GTA01Bv4 # setenv splashimage nand read.e 0x32000000 splash\;unzip 0x32000000 0x33d00000 0x96000
GTA01Bv4 # setenv bootargs_base rootfstype=jffs2 root=/dev/mtdblock4 console=tty0 loglevel=8
GTA01Bv4 # setenv quiet 1
GTA01Bv4 # setenv bootdelay 5
GTA01Bv4 # saveenv
Saving Environment to NAND...
Erasing Nand...Writing to Nand... done

Now disconnect from the USB console. From the '''openocd console''', reboot the device one more time to ensure that it now boots successfully:

> reset
> Target 0 halted
target halted in ARM state due to debug request, current mode: Supervisor
cpsr: 0x200000d3 pc: 0x00000000
MMU: disabled, D-Cache: disabled, I-Cache: disabled
> resume
Target 0 resumed

You should see the regular splash screen, followed by the kernel boot messages and (eventually) the OpenMoko GUI. You may now shut the phone down and disconnect it from the debug board. Remember to remove the USB cables and the battery before disconnecting the FPC cable.

Neo 1973 OpenOCD

2007-11-28T21:58:28Z

C.M: Added link to gentoo ebuild

== About OpenOCD ==

[http://openocd.berlios.de/ OpenOCD] is a 100% free software On-chip-debugger for commonly-found ARM JTAG probes such as [[wiggler]], chamaeleon, jtag-key and others.

It provides a human-readable telnet interface for manually halting/resuming the target device, reading/writing registers and memory, etc.

In addition, it provides a RDI (remote debugger interface) on a TCP port. This interface can be used by gdb (the GNU Debugger).

The GTA01 development team uses OpenOCD with a [[wiggler]] compatible probe as their ICE solution.

== Getting OpenOCD ==

=== Debian Package ===

We now have a Debian binary package of OpenOCD, available from http://people.openmoko.org/laforge/dpkg. Installing this package is the preferred method to install OpenOCD on your development machine like

dpkg --install openocd_82-1_i386.deb

[http://packages.debian.org/openocd Debian/Unstable] also contains an OpenOCD build.

=== Gentoo Ebuild ===
There is an experimental ebuild for openocd in the [http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200689 gentoo bugzilla].

=== Source Code ===

OpenOCD Revision 82 and later have been proven to work with our [[QT2410]] and [[Neo1973]] target board and wiggler as well as Amontect JTAGkey and JTAGkey tiny. You can e.g. check rev. 130 out of the OpenOCD subversion via

svn co -r 130 http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/openocd/trunk

=== Windows Binaries ===

The [http://www.yagarto.de/ YAGARTO] Project provides a Win32 installer for OpenOCD. Details and download can be found at http://www.yagarto.de/howto/openocd/index.html. This will then work with the FDTI drivers available from http://people.openmoko.org/laforge/misc/debug_board_v2/windows_drivers/

== Configuration ==

[[User:HaraldWelte]] has provided a [http://people.gta01.hmw-consulting.de/laforge/misc/openocd.cfg openocd.cfg configuration file] for use of OpenOCD with wiggler and the QT2410 target board.

== Using OpenOCD ==

We cannot provide a full manual for OpenOCD, but please check
[[Bootloader#Using_JTAG_to_boot_from_RAM]] and [[NAND bad blocks#JTAG_.2F_OpenOCD_.2F_u-boot_RAM_based]], as well as the [[Neo1973 OpenOCD#Using OpenOCD telnet interface]] section below.

== Known Bugs and Troubleshooting ==

=== CP15 register read/write of ARM920T core not working ===

This has been reported upstream. Bugfix pending.

=== Did you turn it on ? ===

An easily made but devastating mistake is to forget to actually activate the CPU. Just connecting power is not enough !
Press and hold the power button until the boot loader does its count-down, or, in case there is no runnable boot loader,
the CPU keeps itself busy.

=== number of discovered devices in JTAG chain doesn't match configuration ===

You get something like:
Error: jtag.c:1224 jtag_examine_chain(): number of discovered devices in JTAG chain (51) doesn't match configuration (1)

This seems like a libftdi initialization bug. Sometimes the FT2232 doesn't get completely reset into a sane state at startup of OpenOCD. Please unplug the USB cable from the [[Amontec JTAGkey]] / [[Debug Board]] and re-plug. It should immediately work the next time. Bugfix would be appreciated a lot!

=== JTAG communication failure ===

Another common error is this one:
JTAG communication failure, check connection, JTAG interface, target power etc.

Also this one is fixed by unplugging and re-plugging USB.

== OpenOCD and [[Debug Board]] ==

=== libftdi-0.8 ===

If you want to use OpenOCD with our Debug Board v2, and want to use the serial port simultaneously with OpenOCD, you '''need libftdi-0.8 or later'''. Chances are high that your distribution still ships an earlier version of libftdi, so you might want to download it from http://www.intra2net.com/de/produkte/opensource/ftdi/ and build yourself.

=== openocd.cfg ===

This is an openocd.cfg that is known to work with [[Debug Board]] (v2/v3), [[Neo1973 Hardware#GTA01Bv3]] and OpenOCD 130:
<pre>
telnet_port 4444
gdb_port 3333
interface ft2232
jtag_speed 0
ft2232_vid_pid 0x1457 0x5118
ft2232_layout "jtagkey"
reset_config trst_and_srst
jtag_device 4 0x1 0xf 0xe
daemon_startup attach
target arm920t little reset_run 0 arm920t
working_area 0 0x200000 0x4000 backup
run_and_halt_time 0 5000
</pre>

For later versions of OpenOCD you may need to specify the device description. For the v2 Debug board add this line to your openocd.cfg:
<pre>
ft2232_device_desc "Debug Board for Neo1973 A"
</pre>

If you are using the libftdi version on Linux, and if you see this iProduct string in your lsusb output "Debug Board for Neo1973", please add this line instead.
<pre>
ft2232_device_desc "Debug Board for Neo1973"
</pre>

=== Using OpenOCD telnet interface ===

The telnet interface can be accessed using
telnet localhost 4444

it provides a plethora of functions for debugging. You might be interested in
<pre>
reset
reset halt
resume
poll
reg
load_binary
mdw
mww
</pre>

=== Using OpenOCD and gdb for remote debugging ===

First, you will need a suitable cross-gdb (a gdb that runs on your host architecture, e.g. i386, but works with code for arm). In OpenEmbedded, you can build such a cross-gdb by using
bitbake gdb-cross

If you want to debug the kernel, you can then start this gdb with
$ arm-linux-gdb vmlinux

which will give you something like
<pre>
GNU gdb 6.6
Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are
welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain conditions.
Type "show copying" to see the conditions.
There is absolutely no warranty for GDB. Type "show warranty" for details.
This GDB was configured as "--host=i686-linux --target=arm-linux"...
(gdb)
</pre>

We now need to connect to the OpenOCD daemon, which is done using the '''target remote''' command. In this particular example, we did already halt the target by issuing '''halt''' on the '''telnet''' command line

<pre>
(gdb) target remote localhost:3333
Remote debugging using localhost:3333
warning: shared library handler failed to enable breakpoint
0xc0129b8c in memmove () at include/asm/current.h:9
9 {
(gdb)
</pre>

For breakpoints to work, you have to enable software breakpoints in OpenOCD, by issuing
> arm7_9 sw_bkpts enable

on the '''telnet''' command line, and use '''hbreak''' to set breakpoints in gdb.

Building a hello world application

2007-11-24T23:35:35Z

C.M: /* GDK the Wrong / Easy Way, fix linebreaks */

=== Preparation ===
This guide assumes that you have performed the steps in [[Building_OpenMoko_from_scratch]]

=== The commandline program ===
Store the following more or less standard hello world code in hello.c

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
printf ("Hello World\n");
return 0;
}

=== Compiling it the ''wrong'' / easy way ===
Assuming your current working directory is '''/home/moko''', and that you stored the code in '''/home/moko/hello.c''' it should now be possible to compile the application using
./build/tmp/cross/arm-linux/bin/gcc -o hello hello.c

==== Testing it ====
Assuming you have followed [[OpenMoko_under_QEMU#Setting_up_USB_connection|Setting up USB connection]] and you have a working network connection to either a qemu Neo or a real Neo.
scp hello root@192.168.0.202:/tmp/
ssh root@192.168.0.202 /tmp/hello
This sequence of commands ought to give you a nice ''Hello World'', btw. the default root password is blank, just press return.

=== GDK the Wrong / Easy Way ===
Building a GDK application the wrong way is slightly more complex, but is still fun to try. It requires using pkg-config to specify including and linking with the ARM header files and libraries.

Given the following program as main.c:

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

gchar *hello = "Howdy";
gchar *world = "World";
GtkWidget *label;
gchar *labeltext;

void buttoncb(GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data)
{
if (labeltext == hello)
{
labeltext = world;
gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(label), labeltext);
}
else if (labeltext == world)
gtk_main_quit();
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
GtkWidget *window;
GtkWidget *button;

gtk_init(&argc, &argv);
window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
button = gtk_button_new();
labeltext = hello;
label = gtk_label_new(labeltext);
gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(button), label);
g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(button), "clicked", G_CALLBACK(buttoncb), NULL);
gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), button);
gtk_widget_show_all(window);
gtk_main();

return 0;
}

You must first point pkg-config to the proper directory:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/username/moko/build/tmp/staging/arm-linux/lib/pkgconfig

And set up an environment variable to make things easier:

export OM=/home/username/moko

The compile/link line is rather long - you will only want to do this once before you decide to create a shell script or make file:

$OMDIR/build/tmp/cross/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/gcc -L $OMDIR/build/tmp/staging/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/lib/ \
-Wl, rpath-link, $OMDIR/build/tmp/staging/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/lib/ -Wl, -O1 -g -o hw main.c \
'$OMDIR/build/tmp/staging/i686-linux/bin/pkg-config --cflags --libs openmoko-libs gtk+-2.0'

Then copy and run as in the original hello world command line program above.

===== Why was it the ''wrong'' way? =====
OpenMoko uses [[http://www.openembedded.org/ OpenEmbedded]] and they use bitbake when building stuff, but at least you now know that you can cross compile for OpenMoko.

=== Compiling it using bitbake ===
If you set your enviroment (I created a small script to do this, you could also add it to you .bashrc)
export OMDIR=/home/username/moko
export BBPATH=$OMDIR/build:$OMDIR/openmoko/trunk/oe:$OMDIR/openembedded
You should be capable of
cd $OMDIR/build
bitbake nano
This should auto-magically fetch the recipe for baking nano and baking it. This results in some ipk packages being created in $OMDIR/build/tmp/deploy/ipk/armv4t/
''According to [[http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/UsefulTargets UsefulTargets | OpenEmbedded]] there is a helloworld target, however on my machine it fails with 'ERROR: Nothing provides dependency helloworld' '' 
While this hasn't brought us closer to actually baking a helloworld it demonstrates what we should eventually be capable of doing for our new and revolutionary software for OpenMoko.
==== An OpenEmbedded guide to creating a hello world ====
OpenEmbedded has a nice [[http://www.openembedded.org/user-manual&dpage=recipes_examples Wiki page]] on creating a hello world, I highly recommend it.

==== Creating an ipk package ====
To be written ''(Perhaps this is done by the do_install() function)''

Claes Mogren - OpenMoko fan trying to help out. :)

In case the [http://buildhost.openmoko.org/OM2007.2/tmp/deploy/glibc/ buildhost] is down, take a look at [http://claesmogren.com/~cm/neo/current/ http://claesmogren.com/~cm/neo/current/]

Technical:Accelerometer Fundamentals

2007-11-21T13:25:50Z

C.M: Fixed spelling errors

==What an Accelerometer is==
An accelerometer simply measures acceleration, either due to motion or due to gravity.

Acceleration is measured in m/s2.

The acceleration at near the surface of the earth is around 9.8m/s2 (or 32ft/s2), which can be an unwieldy number, so 9.8m/s2 is often labeled 1G.

This means that if you drop an object from some height (assuming a vacuum), after 1 second it will be falling at 9.8m/s, a speed of 19.6m/s after 2 seconds, and so on.

===Formulae ===
*Displacement after movement at an initial speed for a given time
**s=u * t + 1/2 a * t2
**initial speed * time + 1/2 * acceleration * time squared
*Speed after Acceleration from rest
**v=a * t
**Speed = Acceleration * time

==What one three-axis accelerometer can do==

*If the orientation of the phone is held constant - for example, clamped into a car holder, then you can make pretty good guesses about the correlation of acceleration and position.
**In normal driving, any lateral accelerations mean that the car is turning at a rate which can be computed if the speed of the car is known.
**Accelerations in line with the course mean that the car is slowing up or down, and any vertical accelerations mean that there is a bump, or a rise or fall in the road.
**Errors build up, but it's not bad for short periods, 1cm/s^2 of error, with a car going in a straight line at 20m/s, takes a bit over a minute to move from a true direction of northeast - say, to a false direction of northnortheast. (the position is off after this period by a hundred metres or two)

*When hand-held, and stationary, the phone has quite accurate (better than a degree) knowledge of where 'down' is.
**Tilt in two directions can easily be calculated
**Roll about the 'down' axis cannot.

==What two three axis accelerometers can do==

===What can be done with absolutely perfect devices?===

Imagine two three axis accelerometers rigidly placed on each end of an arrow.

How much information do you get out of these?

A few moments thought should reveal that the orientation of the sensors does not matter. You can resolve the three signals into one direction and size.
This does not change however the devices are oriented - there is no benefit in for example skewing one 45 degrees.
====Neglecting gravity====
Considering the case in deep-space - the maths are simpler.

Holding the orientation steady, you can do perfect inertial navigation, and determine exactly where you are at all times.

*What happens when we vary the orientation?
**You can subtract any common acceleration that's measured by both sensors - this does not change the orientation.
*Remembering that we can skew the sensors against each other, and this has no effect, let's specify that they are oriented with X and Y lined up, and Z pointing in the direction of the arrow.
*This reveals a problem.

*Spin the arrow on its axis, and none of the accelerometers measure anything at all - they do not move, so they do not accelerate.
**(you can't get round this by moving them off-axis, as you can draw an imaginary arrow between the two accelerometers which has the same problem)

*Spin the arrow around its centre (it must spin around its centre logically if you've subtracted the overall acceleration) you can pick up pitch and yaw.

====With Gravity====
Now, what if we add gravity in?

With perfect accelerometers again, with Z axes pointing to the arrow tip.

*As long as the Z axes does not point in the same direction as gravity + current acceleration, then you can determine roll, pitch, yaw, and XYZ acceleration.
*If the Z axes do point to the acceleration vector, then you lose track of roll.
**In theory - with perfect accelerometers, this does not matter because you can never line it up perfectly.
***In practice, with real ones, it gets more complex.
***Roll signal/noise will drop as the acceleration vector closes on the Z axes, and be useless once it gets within the noise.

===Numbers===
I'm assuming specs similar to the ADXL330 - simplified a little.
(The accelerometer mentioned on the mailing list as being included in GTA02 is significantly worse than this - some 20 times more noise)

Assumptions:
*The Neo is a rigid object, and the accelerometers are rigidly fixed to it.
*A/D has no noise and infinite bits.
*Accelerometer only has
**A noise of 300uG/sqrt(Hz)
**Temperature sensitivity of +-.1mG/C.
***I'm neglecting cross-axis sensitivity - which will need calibrated out, and non-linearity.

For interactive use.
High-pass filtering the accelerometer with a bandwidth of 10Hz - you can't filter it much more than that or you lose important 'wobbles', because you need to integrate them to come up with a position - leads to a noise floor of 300uG/sqrt(Hz) *sqrt(10Hz) = 1mG. (RMS)

Neglecting roll for the moment.

1mG is an acceleration of 1cm/s^2.

If the accelerometers are spaced 10cm apart, then the radius between each and the center is 5cm, meaning the circumference of the circle is 30cm.
Integrating over 1s, noise is around 3cm/s^2.

After 1s, if you happen to hit an average noise peak in each accelerometer at the opposite point - something that'll happen once every 5-10 seconds or so, (absolute peaks are much worse) what happens to the pointing?

Well - the velocity reads out as 6cm/s^2 wrong, which means that the position is now out by 3cm, or 10 degrees.

==Results==
What does this mean though?

For gentle twisting and turning, the differential accelerations are impossible to tell from noise.

There are broadly two regimens where they may be of use.

When more or less stationary:
*Picking up turning about the gravity axis - if you are looking at the phone with it in front of you at chest level, with accelerometers at top and bottom for example, this will let you pick up sharp rotations of the phone around the vertical axis - keeping the angle the screen keeps with the floor constant.
*Roll signal-noise drops as the phone long axis approaches vertical, becoming useless well before it is vertical.
*Movements have to be sharp and fairly large.
*It will probably not be good enough for keeping a map aligned when you turn in place.
**It may be adequate for some games, but again, the movements have to be sharp, it will false signal as you decrease the wanted signal.
**The difference in acceleration when the device is swung like a baseball bat is fairly pronounced, and the speed of the swing can be accurately measured. Its exact path however cannot.

When in motion:
*Improving the positioning of the GPS, it may give enough information to resolve sharp turns.
*It can fill in _short_ - 3-5s gaps in GPS coverage, if the orientation of the phone is known.
**In the best case - phone on its back, acceleration vector down, and turning in a vehicle, you may be able to tell sharp turns.
***This is only useful if the phone is handheld, or not fixed in position to the vehicle, or if the vehicle does not go where it points.

In any condition:
*Eliminating impossible points from the GPS data, if the maximum possible distance moved by the accelerometer over a time is under the difference between two GPS readings, then the GPS must be incorrect.
*Recording taps on the device - the output will be broadly an intensity of tap, and the relative distance between the accelerometers and the tap.

And this is completely neglecting the temperature sensitivity.

==What it can't do.==
Inertial navigation or rotation over more than several seconds. For big movements the GPS could be used, for smaller movements in the Z direction (> 25 cm) a pressure sensor could be added, see [[Wish List - Hardware - Atmospheric]], and for inertial rotation a magnetometer (digital compass) can be used, see [[Wishlist - Hardware: Digital compass]].

[[Image:FIC-neo1973_small.jpg|200px|right|frontside]]
OpenMoko™ is an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source Open Source] project to create the world's first free mobile phone operating system.

The [[OpenMoko]] project is a community that anyone can join, to help design their ideal phone.

Eventually, phone software won't be tied to any particular phone.

You can install any OpenMoko software over the whole range of [[Supported Hardware|supported phones]], and if you upgrade your phone, you don't lose that software. Bugs fixed on any phone are fixed on all.

'''The software is not yet suitable for users.''' It is of alpha-quality -- that means many things are not there yet and there might be a lot of bugs. If you order a Neo1973, DO NOT expect to be able to use it as an everyday phone until December 2007 at the soonest, and probably later. *Update* It is now possible, with some work, to use the phone for short periods of time using the Qtopia project's root images. These images are not from the OpenMoko project, but they let one send and receive calls, use contacts, and other basic tasks. Unfortunately, due to issues with the "suspend" feature, the Neo is limited to only a 3-5 hours away from a charger. See [[Qtopia on Neo 1973]] , [http://www.qtopia.net/modules/mydownloads/] and [http://www.qtopia.net/modules/newbb_plus/viewtopic.php?topic_id=473&forum=4] for more details.

The [[Neo1973]] from [[FIC]] is the first of many phones that OpenMoko will run on. Buy it at [https://direct.openmoko.com/ Openmoko Online Shop]. You may wish to see the [[SH1 FAQ|Shipment 1 FAQ]].

Please join us in collaborating on the OpenMoko project through any of the [[Development resources | project resources]] including this OpenMoko wiki. Please see the [[Help:Contents | wiki editing help]] page for information on making contributions to this wiki. A [[Meet the Core Team | core team]] of developers funded by FIC, Inc. leads the project.

An [[introduction]] page is available, with [[Introduction#Photos|photos]] and [[Introduction#Videos|videos]]. Moreover, the usual [[FAQ | Frequently Asked Questions]] (FAQ) page might be helpful. Developers may find the [[ChangeLog | change log]] an important resource.

Update 2007-07-25: The [http://forums.makeopensource.com/ Unofficial OpenMoko Forums] are now open! Everyone is invited to participate!

The members of the OpenMoko community would like to thank FIC Inc. for showing leadership and initiating the OpenMoko project.

Frequently Asked Questions... with answers included!

==Introduction==

=== Q: What is OpenMoko? What is Neo1973? ===
A: [[OpenMoko]] is a software platform, an attempt to create the world's first completely open mobile phone software stack. The [[FIC]] [[Neo1973]] is the first fully supported OpenMoko phone.

=== Q: I'm a ____ expert, can I join/help OpenMoko? ===

We would love to hear from you.

If you are interested in joining OpenMoko, please visit http://www.openmoko.com/contact-index.html and send us an e-mail. Or simply post a message to our community list if you just want to help.

=== Q: When can I buy a [[Neo1973]]? ===

A: Now - from https://direct.openmoko.com/. But please see "What will it do?" below first.

=== Q: How much? ===

A: Neo1973 GTA01B_v04: $300 for Neo Base, $450 for Neo Advanced. Available now. See [[Neo1973]] for what is included.

A: Neo1973 GTA02: $450 for Neo Base, $600 for Neo Advanced. Planned to be available Fall 2007. See [[Neo1973]] for list of hardware.

=== Q: What will it do? ===

A: For long answer see [[Developer preview]]

A: The Phase 1 phone is aimed at developers only. It is not suitable for end users, it will have basic functionality as a touchscreen phone. Little else will work, software development will continue till mass market release.

Those interested should:

* Know that there will be a device with faster cpu, gsm system etc. 4-5 months later (GTA02)
* Have fun hacking devices.
* Be able to find their way through prototype software and hardware without much documentation.
* Share the dream of a device powered by free software.
* Not expect a consumer-level device.
* Come up with new ideas for exploring the age of mobile computing.
* Have $300.

Ideally they also:

* Can spot bugs and submit patches.
* Love to cooperate with a community improving the software.

=== Q: Do I need Neo Advanced? ===

With Neo Base you can do:
* Kernel development.
* Application development.
* Updating u-boot (equivalent to PC BIOS) using a tested image.
* Replace a non-booting kernel and/or rootfs using [[Dfu-util]].

With Neo Advanced you can additionally do:
* U-boot development.
* Use the kernel console.
* Unbrick your device if you flash a wrong or non-working u-boot image.

=== Q: I have a shipping related question ===

See [[SH1_FAQ|Shipment 1 FAQ]].

=== Q: What will the [[Neo1973]] look like? ===

See the proposed [[Artwork|artwork]].

==Software==

=== Q: Can the software do/connect to/... ===
A: At the moment, the answer is in almost all cases no. The phone is at the moment a small linux box with a touchscreen, a working dialer and some prototype apps.
Most do not function in any way that would be suitable for users.
If you want to add a feature or application request, then look over the existing applications and either add one, or add a feature request to the applications page.

===What software is on the phone?===
At the moment, almost no 'end-user' applications are present and working in a usable state.
It is possible to make and receive calls in some software revisions, this frequently breaks though.

====What software can be installed on the phone?====

=== Q: Is there description and list of OpenMoko software? ===

A: See [[OpenMoko]] and [[OpenMokoFramework]]

=== Q: Is it completely free software/open source? ===

A: User space [[Gpsd]] will use binary plugin (to be released soon) for [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware#AGPS|Hammerhead AGPS]] and [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware#GSM.2FGPRS|GSM modem]] is separate subsystem connected to S3C2410 UART1. Otherwise it is completely free software. See [[MokoMakefile]] and [[Development resources]].

=== Q: How do I install and manage software on OpenMoko? ===

A: ipkg: http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Ipkg

=== Q: How can I compile programs for the Neo1973? ===

A: See [[Toolchain]].

=== Q: Is there an emulator available for OpenMoko? ===

For a lot of testing and development work, you don't actually need emulation as you can run OpenMoko on a normal PC too. The emulators also aren't 100% accurate. That being said, there are several emulation options as described in the following.

====QEMU====
QEMU can now emulate the Neo1973 device. The [[MokoMakefile]] has support for automatically building, flashing, and running [[OpenMoko under QEMU|the Neo1973 emulator]].

“make qemu” will build qemu-neo1973, download the latest official openmoko images, flash the images into the virtual NAND flash, and run the emulator.

====Xoo====
Another is [http://projects.o-hand.com/xoo Xoo]. Koen says: "Xoo should be enough for most apps people will develop, since most don't need access to the gsm uart directly. If you're hardcore you could use qemu + xoo, but that still doesn't emulate all the hardware quirks (e.g. unaligned access)".

Update: Stefan Schmidt has resized the [[Neo1973]] Mock-up and written a small description for xoo. In his words:

It's not really useable at all, as you need a really high screen resolution to fit the whole picture on your screen. And of course the dpi are wrong. Even no buttons because I can't remember where they are at the case.

http://www.datenfreihafen.org/~stefan/OpenMoko/neo1973-xoo-device.tar.bz2

Start with 'xoo --device /path/to/neo1973.xml'

Some more details [[Getting_Openmoko_working_on_host_with_Xoo|here]].

====Xephyr====
Or use Xephyr directly with locally compiled programs (e.g. matchbox svn + openmoko):
Xephyr -screen 480x640 -nolisten tcp -ac :1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
matchbox-window-manager -display $DISPLAY -use_titlebar no \
-use_super_modal yes -use_lowlight yes -use_dialog_mode static \
-use_cursor yes &
matchbox-panel --geometry=480x44 --end-applets=clock &
openmoko-footer &
openmoko-taskmanager &

=== Q: Where can I find some type of tutorial for a 'Hello, world' on OpenMoko? ===

A: This should get you started:
http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/

=== Q: Can PalmOS apps applications be ported to run on OpenMoko? ===

A: Making legacy apps written for the "Garnet" OS (née "Palm OS") run on Linux
is decidedly non-trivial.

PalmOS apps are in general very hard to simply 'port'. Particularly well-designed programs may make it possible.

The ACCESS Linux Platform will include Garnet on Host (GHost), a PalmOS emulator that will support M6800 (68k) and ARM PalmOS applications. This part (GarnetVM and the .prc loader) will however be closed-source and likely under a restrictive license (fact confirmed by ACCESS Co. employees), making it rather unusable. In addition GarnetVM depends on Hiker and other packages.

It is possible that POSE, an emulator that simulates a Palm device on a Linux host could be used to allow 68k based applications to run. This emulator has been around a long time; one expects that it will also run on OpenMoko, but this has to be considered a short-term bandaid rather than a long-term solution.

The soon-to-be-released [http://www.palm.com/foleo/ Palm Foleo], which runs a Linux port developed by Palm Inc. independently of ALP, contains a PalmOS compatibility environment that runs PalmOS apps, supposedly all of them and supposedly seamlessly. Little is known about how it works but if it's not too kludgy it should run unmodified on any ARM linux. It is not known what license it will be distributed under.

Hopefully emulation will be necessary only for M68000 code (pre-PalmOS 5) while native ARM programs can run natively under Linux, provided a proper set of PalmOS libraries and a .prc executable loader.

=== Q: Does it have Java? ===
A: It will have eventually, if you help us to get it working. Some good places to keep track of would be [http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/java-pkg/ projects.openmoko.org] and [https://phoneme.dev.java.net/ PhoneME].

=== Q: What are the relevant X11 details? ===

A: See [http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2007-January/001353.html xdpyinfo output].

=== Q: Does OpenMoko run on any other hardware? ===

You can run it on your [[How_to_run_OpenMoko_Apps_on_PC|PC]]. There is work going on with [http://www.datenfreihafen.org/~stefan/weblog//archives/2007/02/#e2007-02-18T15_27_07.txt OpenEZX and HTC]. It's running on [http://dominion.kabel.utwente.nl/koen/cms/openmoko-running-on-an-ipaq iPaq hx4700], on a [http://hackndev.com/node/701 Palm TX] and on [http://blog.mikeasoft.com/2007/07/01/openmoko-on-a-treo-650/ PalmOne's Treo 650].

=== Q: What are the requirements to the hardware to run OpenMoko? (Would it run on the IXI ogo?) ===

=== Q: Why do you not build on top of the Maemo platform instead? ===

While I can't speak for the OpenMoko team, it's worth noting that maemo is fixed resolution only. That will, I've heard, change in the future, but it hasn't yet. Maemo's current layout is also optimized for wide screens, not tall narrow ones. Most third party maemo applications that are out there will need to be modified to work at different sizes. Finally, a number of the software components of the Nokia 770 and N800 are not open source. --gopi

To add up on that, according to Nokia, Maemo is designed to bring the "Desktop" experience to an Internet Tablet. A lot of Desktop paradigms just won't work on a phone. However, we really share a lot of the base-technology (gtk, dbus, eds, gconf, to name a few) with Maemo, so we are definitely not a reinvent-the-wheel team.

=== Q: Will it be possible to use popular VoIP applications such as Skype on the OpenMoko platform? ===

A: Perhaps. Hardware issues mean that it won't work well on the Neo1973. (the typical latency of GPRS is far too high). Also, Skype is a closed source application, which does not provide binaries that would be suitable to run on OpenMoko. Skype's vendor could of course choose to provide binaries for OpenMoko phones. However, many telephone providers' terms of service agreements preclude running VoIP over their baseline GSM service.

=== Q: Same question for Instant Messaging applications such as MSN Messenger? ===

A: Very probably. MSN is closed source and will only run where Microsoft wants you to run it. But there are many Open Source IM clients, many of which have a plugin architecture and so support the use of more than one IM protocol, even simultaneously. One example is [http://www.pidgin.im Pidgin, formerly called GAIM]. GPRS does induce a certain amount of latency but that should not be a problem for simple, text-oriented chat between parties. And the GTA02's WiFi will make it even better.

==Neo1973 Hardware==

=== Q: Is there description of [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973 Hardware]] ? ===

A: See [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973 Hardware]] and [[Disassembling Neo1973]]

=== Q: What are the dimensions? ===

A: 120.7 x 62 x 18.5 mm, It would fit entirely in a coke can. (4.75 * 2.4 * 0.72 ")

=== Q: How heavy is it? ===

A: 185g, (6.5 ounces).

=== Q: Does it have a camera? ===

A: No, see [[:Category:Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973]] for details on what it does include (and [[Wish List - Hardware]] for what some want in the future.) See also [[FAQ#USB]].

=== Q: Does it have Wifi? ===

A: The currently available [[Neo1973]] does not have WiFi. There was no suitable Wifi device available when it was designed. The next version will have WiFi. See also [[FAQ#USB]].

=== Q: Does it have bluetooth? ===

A: Yes! Bluetooth 2.0.

=== Q: Does it come with a stylus? ===

A: Yes, but there's no holder for it on the phone.

=== Q: Where are the buttons? ===

The power button is a small circular button, just next to the USB connector. [[Neo1973 Power Button]]
The Auxiliary button is a rectangular button on the top left of the edge of the phone. (on black phones it looks just like an IRDA port). [[Neo1973 AUX Button]]

=== Q: How do I input text? ===

A: Use provided keyboard app.

A: Use Bluetooth keyboard.

A: For more methods and ideas see [[Wishlist:Text_Input]].

=== Q: Can I record calls and/or play audio files in calls? ===

A: Yes, audio path from GSM to/from mic and speakers is completely controllable by user. For example recording calls (both sides) and implementing an [[Answering Machine]] is possible. Also using text->speech should be possible or modifying outgoing voice. Currently there is no software bundled in phone to do this.
There are only 2 A/D inputs and three D/A outputs (one dedicated to the earpiece). This means that stereo audio playback cannot happen at the same time as the [[Answering Machine]] functionality, amongst other things. See the audio page. [[Neo1973_Audio_Subsystem|Neo1973 Audio Subsystem]]

=== Q: What is the battery life? ===

A: There has been no word on this so far, but see [[Neo1973 Power Management#Approximate_power_draw_of_various_subsystems|these estimates]] for a rough idea. More information about the battery [[Neo1973 Battery|here]].

=== USB ===

==== Q: What can I do with the USB port on the Neo1973? ====
A: Charge the phone, communicate with it over USB-serial, or USB-networking.

A: Plug external devices, such as wifi, cameras, or mass-storage devices in. The "Mass Market" version of the phone will have wifi integrated.

==== Q: What can't I do with the USB? ====

The USB on the neo has no power output. This means that you cannot use USB bus powered devices without some sort of powered hub or cable.
This is due to the fact that adding a 5V power supply into the device would have added complexity, volume and cost.

Many powered USB devices don't work without at least a nominal amount of 5v power from the USB bus. A few powered USB hubs will work without 5v power from the host, but most powered ones need to have simple electrical modifications done to work.

==== Q: Why is only USB 1.1 provided? ====

A: The processor has USB 1.1 built in. One with USB2 built in would have been more expensive.

==== Q: Can the Neo charge and use devices on a USB hub at the same time? ====

A:
*When the Neo is connected to a device port on a USB hub, it will start charging. If the hub is a powered hub, then it will charge fast (3h), otherwise around 12h.

*If you plug the Neo into the host port of a USB hub you can use devices on that hub but the Neo will not charge. (Some/many USB hubs will not accept an unpowered host as valid, hence the need for the below cable.)
*This is because the host socket on USB hubs is not powered.

FIC product development is looking into providing something that
conveniently solves this problem.

The USB port on the Neo is not a properly compliant USB host port, all USB host ports must provide 5V - though powered devices or hubs may not draw any current from this, they may refuse to work. (The Belkin Tetrahub is an example of a hub that will not work.)

One solution is a three headed cable.

One end plugs into the Neo. One end plugs into a device port of a powered hub, or the Neo charger. One end plugs into the host port of a hub.

The Charger/USB device plug only has +5V and 0V connected in the simple cable, which are connected to the other ends.

For a more complex cable, when the host socket is not plugged in, the cable acts as a simple USB cable.

==== Q: What are the details of the USB port on the [[Neo1973]]? How does it compare to USB On-The-Go? ====

A: The [[Neo1973]] will have mini-USB-B, and will be able to function as either a host or a device. It will NOT be USB On-The-Go. OTG is a complex specification, and it comprises way more than just
a AB socket, but also electrical and software components which cannot be provide by the S3C2410.

You will need a special Mini-B to regular-B cable (note that this won't actually comply with the USB standard: a compliant cable has to have an A or Mini-A plug on one end, and B or Mini-B on the other).

=== Q: Are there any LEDs on the Neo 1973? ===

A: The [[Neo1973]] P1/P2 will have no LEDs besides the screen backlight.

=== Q: Will a JTAG port be made available? ===

A: Included with purchase of The "Hacker's Lunchbox" (Advanced version).

There are [[Neo1973_Hardware#Changes_from_GTA01Bv3|exposed I2C, SPI and debug board connectors]] inside case in all versions and [[Debug Board|Debug Board v2]] (JTAG and serial console) in Advanced version. [[Connecting Neo1973 with Debug Board v2]] explains how to connect it to the phone.

=== Q: Will the JTAG interface that comes with GTA01 be compatible with GTA02? ===

A: Yes

=== Q: What can we expect in future versions? ===

A: A faster CPU, faster GSM (EDGE?) perhaps even powered USB port, USB2, wifi, and camera. No details have been released yet. More details of hardware upgrades should be available sometime in May. There will also be 5 more OpenMoko devices - some not phones in the traditional sense - announced by FIC in September.

==Networking/Connectivity==

=== Q: What kind of connectivity? ===

A: Tri-band GSM (commonly known as "European tri-band", 900/1800/1900 MHz), GPRS Class12/CS4 2.5G (Not EDGE), Bluetooth 2.0 EDR, USB in all versions. WiFi: Atheros AR6K in [[GTA02#.22Phase_2.22_.28GTA02.2C_.22Mass_Market.22.29|GTA02]]. (No 3G in year 2007 models)

=== Q: Can I bridge to an Ethernet (wired or unwired) network via a suitable Bluetooth enabled router? ===

A: Yes - see [http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Configure_a_bluetooth_network_access_point this howto for how to configure a linux computer to act as such a router] and [[Bluetooth Support]].

=== Q: What providers provide the GSM required for Neo1973? ===

A: See [[Neo1973 compatible cellphone providers]]

=== Q: Will OpenMoko "Just Work" with Mac OS X? ===

A: There has been some discussion of this on the mailing list. There is motivation, and there are interested developers.
Not being a Mac OS X user, I don't know enough
to summarize the discussion to answer this question. Can someone please fill in?

A: For IP over USB cable connectivity, it is planned to improve/adapt the AJZaurusUSB driver, allowing ssh into the OpenMoko.

A: It is expected that (Bluetooth/UB) SyncML based interoperation for
contacts and events can easily be achieved by a patch
to the Apple iSync configuration tables.

A: There is an open source implementation of Cocoa (GNUstep) that aims to run MacOS X compatible applications (sort of
PPC/x86/ARM universal binaries) on OpenMoko devices: mySTEP.

==Misc==

=== Q: On the lists on lists.openmoko.org, should replies be added above or below the original text? ===

A: Please reply UNDER post.

=== Q: How can I find out if a question or topic has already been discussed on the mailing lists? ===

A: By searching the mailing list archives. For example, using Google searches:

site:openmoko.org text

For example, to search for accelerometer:

site:openmoko.org accelerometer

If you only want to read the "official" mails from FIC people or from OpenMoko people:

site:openmoko.org text "at fic.com.tw"
site:openmoko.org text "at openmoko.org"

For example to search for "release date" from FIC people:

site:openmoko.org "release date" "at fic.com.tw"

Alternatively you can use the [http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=018430699993342716089%3Aszsaurhronw custom OpenMoko search engine] that is using [http://www.google.com/coop/ Google Co-op].

=== Q: how many dead pixels may the LCM have before calling it defect? ===

A: the answer for the display used in GTA01 and GTA02 is '2'

=== Q: Can I has some money for a Neo1973? ===

A: No.

* -- [[User:C.M|C.M]] 06:44 CST, 6 November 2007 - 850 would be nice, but I don't need it.
'''Must have full quad-band support''' (note that this is not for GTA01 or GTA02)
* -- [[User:Elektrolott|Elektrolott]] 18:45 (PST), 2007-11-05
* -- [[User:ClashTheBunny|ClashTheBunny]] 04:03, 6 November 2007 (CET) - Right now I live on the North Shore of Boston and most places are 850
* -- [[User:Sagacis|Sagacis]] 04:16, 6 November 2007 (CET) - The phone is a brick to me without 850. International travel means I need all four bands.
* -- [[User:Davemaster|Davemaster]] 21:47, 5 November 2007 (ET) - International travelers, Me and my group (company) deals all over. We need all four bands.
*-- [[User:Rakshat|Rakshat]] 05:40, 6 November 2007 (CET) - For travel in the US, otherwise I am ok with the 900/1800/1900Mhz variant

Neo 1973

2007-10-19T05:48:58Z

C.M: /* "Phase 2" (GTA02, "Mass Market") */ Added GTA02v4 and made clear it's estimates

[[Image:FIC-neo1973 small.jpg|120px|right]]
The [[Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973]] is the first phone designed to run [[OpenMoko]].
It is a phone that can be used with any [[GSM]] operator, and it is manufactured by [[FIC]] who instigated the [[OpenMoko]] project.

If you just received a Neo1973 here are some suggestions for [[Getting_Started_with_your_Neo1973 | getting started]].

[[Neo1973 Hardware | Neo1973 Hardware]] and [[Disassembling Neo1973]] have more information on the hardware.

See [[OpenMoko]], [[OpenMokoFramework]], [[MokoMakefile]] and [[Development resources]] for more information about source code.

See [[FAQ]] for other Frequently Asked Questions.

There is some SVG [[ClipArt]] for simple illustrative purposes.

== Phase 0 (GTA01Bv3) ==
:''Main article [[Neo1973 Phase 0]]
:''See also [[Wishlist:Neo1973_P0_Review]]
36 developers have received their devices. [http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/announce/2007-March/000006.html]

== Phase 1 (GTA01Bv4) ==
:''Main article [[Neo1973 Phase 1]]
You can order from https://direct.openmoko.com/ now. See also the [[Group Order]] page.

Bricked

2007-10-18T12:38:55Z

C.M: Warning about flashing bad mtdblock1

== Notes on a 'bricked' Neo ==

I've just spent a very long time, with the help of a few people on irc (who I now owe drinks to), trying to recover my Neo. This page is the result and is supposed to act as a collection of information to help owners with bricked or semi-bricked devices.

== The Problem defined ==

A typing error in the splashimage environment variable resulted in the splash image being read into the memory starting at 0x200000 rather than 0x32000000. The change was written, with the error being unnoticed, using saveenv. As a result it was not possible to connect the device to usb until it had booted fully. Any attempt to either start with usb plugged in or plugging it in at the u-boot prompt resulted in a locked up device. Looking at dmesg on the host the following errors were reported

usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 21
usb 3-1: device not accepting address 21, error -110

(the address number will change).

So the problem was that although the device could now boot there was no way to flash it with dfu.

=== The Solution ===

The solution was to try and prevent the splashimage environment variable from being looked at, thus preventing the write to the wrong area of memory.

==== Attempt 1 ====

The idea was to dump mtdblock1 to a file, scp the file to a PC, hex edit it scp the file back to the phone and then dd the result into the mtdblock.

On the Neo

dd if=/dev/mtdblock1 of=mtdblock1.bin

Rebooting was required because of the i/o errors. The i/o error problem has been reported as bug [http://bugzilla.openmoko.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=567 567]

Once the Neo had rebooted the file was copied to a PC using scp. The first attempt to hex edit was made, the idea was to change 1 byte of the word '''splashimage''' so that it would, hopefully, be ignored by the bootloader. The resulting file was scp'd back to the Neo and written to flash

dd if=new_mtdblock1 of=/dev/mtdblock1

again once this was done a 'reboot' was performed.

==== Result 1 ====

When the device booted there was a small tux image in the top left hand corner of the screen and a u-boot version string displayed over some of it. The device would not continue to boot.

Powered off the Neo, powered on with AUX+POWER go give a reduced boot menu.

Boot
Factory reset

Selecting Boot resulted in a familiar 'bad magic number' error. However, selecting Factory reset resulted in the device booting. This time DFU was operational, but /dev/ttyACM0 was not available so there was no way to change the environment variable for splashimage.

'''[[User:CesarB|Cesar Barros]] points out that'''

''The reason editing the environment by hand does not work well is not the missing variable, but that the CRC doesn't match anymore, which makes it ignore the whole environment''

which makes perfect sense.

==== Attempt 2 ====

This idea involved taking the mtdblock1 from a working Neo and dd'ing it to the failed Neo's flash. '''WARNING!!! Never flash an u-boot-env (mtdblock1) that does not come from your own Neo. It contains a partition table and bad block table that's unique for each Neo.'''

==== Result 2 ====

The process was similar to attempt one, although no hex edit took place. The result was that the Neo booted perfectly, although without a splash screen. As the next stage for this the mtdblock3 was dumped from the working Neo and dd'd into mtdblock3 of the Neo with no splash screen.

The final result was a perfectly fine Neo with a splash screen, working boot menu and dfu capabilities.

== Discoveries ==

1. You can use dd to extract and overwrite your mtd partitions. This works particularly well for u-boot-env and splash providing the source device has a similar partition layout. Doing this on the u-boot partition was '''not''' tested. However, after you have used dd on the mtdblock devices as either the if= or of= you get i/o errors with even basic commands. The only way to get round this is to 'reboot' by removing the battery.

2. Hex editing the extracted mtd partition (u-boot-env) and trying to dd that works but the results are not what is expected. It appears that if one of the boot env parameters is missing, in this case splashimage, the u-boot-env parameters are all treated as if they were blank and the device uses default settings. This is because the CRC no longer matches.

3. QEMU is very useful for testing out your theories before actually doing them on a real device. Most of the things we tried were tried on qemu first. Sadly QEMU's sd card emulation appears to be broken.

== Useful information ==

On your Neo:

cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00040000 00004000 "u-boot"
mtd1: 00004000 00004000 "u-boot_env"
mtd2: 00200000 00004000 "kernel"
mtd3: 000a0000 00004000 "splash"
mtd4: 03d1c000 00004000 "rootfs

C.M: /* uicmoc4 failes to compile */

== Ubuntu Edgy: Update git-1.4.x to 1.5.x! ==
With old git-1.4.x, fetching uboot does not work: Use 1.5.x:
<pre>

== Building on Fedora Core 6 ==

Install stuff needed for OpenMoko:
# yum install python m4 make wget curl ftp cvs monotone subversion \
tar bzip2 gzip unzip python-psyco ccache perl texinfo texi2html \
diffstat openjade docbook-style-dsssl docbook-style-xsl docbook-dtds \
docbook-utils sed bison bc glibc-devel gcc binutils pcre pcre-devel git \
quilt groff linuxdoc-tools patch compat-gcc-34 lynx netpbm
(notice ''compat-gcc-34'' wich was needed for FC6 (gcc 4 installed), and ''lynx'' which is needed by ''qemu'' (no fallback to ''wget'', ''curl'', or ''links'' at the moment and no check for it, resulting in strange "sleep" errors when trying to build without ''lynx'').

Build it:
$ make setup
$ make openmoko-devel-image
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ make update-makefile && make update && make setup && make openmoko-devel-image

I have also done a
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH; make update-makefile && nice make update && nice make setup && nice make all
(This takes several hours)

Build qemu:
$ make qemu

Run it:
# echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
$ make run-qemu
This will bring up the OpenMoko :) Use SPACE for AUX and ENTER for POWER.
Not quite the same as holding a Neo1973 in your hands I would guess, but this is the best we can do for now. Thanks!

== Building on Ubuntu Feisty ==

MokoMakefile requires more than 512 MB of RAM + Swap space (around 1GB?).

If you need swap, please '''check that its size under Feisty is not null'''!

[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/105490 Bug #105490] describes the current issue and offers a workaround (23 Jul 07).

== Fails trying to build bluez-utils ==
on Gentoo Linux, it fails compiling bluez-utils (I've tried also "make clean-package-bluez-utils" before the following command)

do a "make build-package-libusb; make clean-package-bluez-utils" and it should continue (the bluez-utils .bb is missing the libusb dependency)

== conflicting types for 'futimens' ==

if you encounter the following error:

| In file included from utimecmp.c:40:
| utimens.h:2: error: conflicting types for 'futimens'
| /usr/include/sys/stat.h:370: error: previous declaration of 'futimens' was here

a patch is needed because your glibc is too new. grab & enable the patch as follows

cd openembedded/packages/coreutils
mv coreutils_5.3.0.bb coreutils_5.3.0.orig
wget http://www.openembedded.org/repo/org.openembedded.dev/packages/coreutils/coreutils_5.3.0.bb
cd -
cd openembedded/packages/coreutils/coreutils-5.3.0
wget http://www.openembedded.org/repo/org.openembedded.dev/packages/coreutils/coreutils-5.3.0/futimens.patch
cd -

== Workaround for problems compiling mtd-utils ==

Change the line on <code>openembedded/packages/mtd/mtd-utils_1.0.0+git.bb</code> which reads:

SRC_URI = "git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git;protocol=git;tag=master \

to:

SRC_URI = "git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git;protocol=git;tag=a6fa706fe9e7696b4b2045edf9698c3bac07e3e3 \

which forces the recipe to use an older revision (the one which worked last time I built the image on my computer).

Be sure to remember to undo the change later, or else you will not get any new changes to that package. --[[User:CesarB|CesarB]] 04:48, 25 July 2007 (CEST)

Note: these patches should be updated - the lzo patch is included in the current version, so backing off to the previous version and repatching seems silly. I was able to make it through this part of the build by applying the remaining patches manually. --[[User:Mellon|Ted Lemon]] 15:44, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

== Monotone segfaulting on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn/PPC ==
If you are running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on a PowerPC computer you will experience problems running monotone. To fix this issue you need to install monotone as well as the libboost packages from Gutsy. The easiest way to accomplish this is to add the gutsy repositories to your sources.list
and change the preferences to look like this:

Package: *
Pin: release a=feisty
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: *
Pin: release a=gutsy
Pin-Priority: -100

Package: libc6 libc6-dev tzdata util-linux libgcc1 libstdc++6 monotone
Pin: release a=gutsy
Pin-Priority: 800

Package: libboost-*
Pin: release a=gutsy
Pin-Priority: 800

After doing this install monotone in this way:
apt-get -t gutsy install monotone.
That should install monotone 0.35 with updated (and working) boost libraries.

== Fails on ncurses install in Fedora 7 with a "tic -x" message ==
Adjust the following command to your system, then run it:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/moko/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/ncurses-native-5.4-r8/ncurses-5.4/lib
Then start make again and it should pick up where it left off.

You can get a list of potential paths to use with the following command from you main moko directory:
find . | grep libncurses

The basic problem is that it is linking against your main system libraries instead of the OpenEmbedded ones.

There's probably a cleaner way of handling this - please update this entry if you know it.

This has been fixed in Openembedded, see [http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2554 Openembedded Bug #2554] for further details.

== uboot-gta01 fails to build ==
Changes in the GIT of U-Boot make the OpenMoko patches unapplyable. For the use of Revision ''cc3023b9f95d7ac959a764471a65001062aecf41'' and everything will be fine for now.

== Perl fails to build ==
After following every bit of advice I can find to 'make clean' and nuke the perl build directories, every build comes up with:

| make[1]: Entering directory `/src/openmoko/build/tmp/work/i686-linux/perl-native-5.8.7-r3/perl-5.8.7'

Solution turned out to be editing
/src/openmoko/build/tmp/work/i686-linux/perl-native-5.8.7-r3/perl-5.8.7/makedepend.SH and at line 169 change the regexp to eat references to "<command.line>" to catch what was leaking through.

== Gettext fails to build ==

The solution is simple - install emacs (example below for debian/ubuntu) and try again:

<pre>

sudo apt-get install emacs
make clean-package-gettext-native-0.14.1-r5
make openmoko-devel-image

</pre>

== Fails compiling binutils-cross on Gentoo/AMD64 and openSUSE/x86_64 ==

</pre>

The final reason why the build cannot continue is:
mv: cannot stat `/home/techiem2/Moko/build/tmp/cross/lib/libiberty.a': No such file or directory

Likely, Gentoo/AMD64 uses lib64 instead of lib as the library directory for x86_64 libraries. It's l likey that may (or all?) AMD64 distributions do for their 64-bit binaries. At least on openSUSE-x86_64, the same happens.

At least on openSUSE-10.3 the missing libiberty.a was inatalled to build/tmp/cross/lib64/libiberty.a, which is clearly wrong.

After seeing this, I assumed that openmoko/openembedded was clearly not tested with lib64 build hosts and since that would mean that even if I'd fix that error, many others could follow, and as I was not interested to fix the lib64 bugs but rather wanted to see something running first, I decided to make openmoko/openembedded think that it was running on a normal 32-bit non-lib64 machine.

There are several ways to do that:
* You install an IA32-Linux somewhere and use that for building:
** Do a native install and dual-boot the IA32-linux (That's for dummies which do not know the other tricks)
** Install IA32-Linux in a virtual machine (Quite some setup and has some overhead too)
* you can install a 32-bit development system in to a chroot jail and compile there (also quite some setup and inconvinience)
* Or you can install a 32-bit development system on the 64-bit host (suppored on openSUSE, should be possible with Gentoo/AMD64 too)

I decided to go for the last option - to install a 32-bit development environment and use that:

=== Build cross-binutils, cross-gcc and QEMU using -m32 on 64-bit hosts ===

Here are my notes from openSUSE-10.3, no idea how gentoo names these things:

Install the following packages for the 32-bit C/C++ compiler target option -m32 to work and to compile what is needed

gcc-32bit libgcc-32bit glibc-devel-32bit libstdc++-devel-32bit ncurses-devel-32bit zlib-devel-32bit gtk2-devel-32bit

The current openSUSE 10.3 had no libopenssl-devel-32bit, so I had to install this 32-bit rpm:

libopenssl-devel

For MokoMakefile to not fail on compiling qemu-user, you need gcc33, I used:

wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/gcc/openSUSE_Factory/i586/cpp33-3.3.3-41.3.i586.rpm
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/gcc/openSUSE_Factory/i586/gcc33-3.3.3-41.3.i586.rpm
rpm -Uhv cpp33.rpm gcc33.rpm

Note these are the 32-bit cpp33 and gcc33 rpms as the 64-bit gcc33 rpms for openSUSE do not support the 32-bit target.

Then I used
linux32
In order to build moko with the personality of the system set to i686 (uname -m changes to i686):
cd ~/moko
linux32 su - $USERNAME

And set up gcc scripts which force the compilation of 32-bit binaries:

mkdir bin;cd bin
echo '/usr/bin/${0##*/} -m32 "$@"' >gcc
echo '/usr/bin/${0##*/} -m elf_i386 "$@"' >ld
echo '/usr/bin/${0##*/} --32 "$@"' >gas
sed -i '1i#!/bin/sh' gcc gas ld
chmod 755 gcc gas ld
ln -s gcc cc
ln -s gcc c++
ln -s gcc g++
ln -s gas as
echo PATH=\""$PWD":\$PATH\" >.setup-gcc-m32
cd -

Then set the path and test it:

source bin/.setup-gcc-m32
type gcc

It would be of course much better to fix the binutils build, maybe it's the only build which is broken because binutils may
be a special package, going into the directory where it compiled and grepping for lib64 could help to find the bug.

== More package requirements ==

On my system (Kubuntu 6.10) build failed with message "ERROR: QEMU requires SDL or Cocoa for graphical output" because package <tt>libsdl-image1.2-dev</tt> was missing. Use <tt>apt-get install libsdl-image1.2-dev</tt> to install. Additionally I had to install packages <tt>cvs</tt> and <tt>diffstat</tt>. I was also asked to install Psyco JIT Compiler (package <tt>python-psyco</tt>) to increase performance. Nevertheless <tt>make flash-qemu-local</tt> took some hours, but now I finally can get an impression of the phone that I am looking for! -- [[User:Nichtich|Nichtich]] 00:26, 20 September 2007 (CEST)

The Glib included in the build tree seems to be only 2.12.12, so looks like something
is broken in term of dependency.

This had happened on both of Fedora 7 and Debian Etch. I am running the latest
MokoMakefile with OM-2007.2. The funny thing is that the build had worked only
couple nights ago. Any idea? I will update anything I find here and also on my blog(see my user profile).
[[User:ttz|ttz]] Wed Sep 26 12:17:33 CDT 2007

pango-directfb had been removed from OE for now due to the report of it breaking builds like OpenMoko.

Qtopia on Neo1973

2007-09-19T11:12:24Z

C.M: Added link to the tracker for fullsize videos

== Where to get it ==
You can get everything you need [http://www.qtopia.net/modules/devices/openmoko.php from here]. Currently the flash tarball has the 2.6.21 openmoko kernel and a Qtopia phone edition jffs2 flash
image cross-compiled for the Neo.

It appears you must clear the flash chunks first. Get into uboot console [http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Uboot#Accessing_the_bootloader_prompt] and enter

# nand erase kernel
# nand erase rootfs

download and use dfu-util as normal [http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Flashing_openmoko] :D - Simple, Eh?

Most things seem to work out of the box, however you may need to use the following command to get audio:

# alsactl -f /etc/alsa/gsmhandset.state restore

The lock works, yet you must push the power button, then press the # on the smallest 9-keypad in the world.

== Screenshots ==

Here are some screenshots of Qtopia runing on a Neo 1973. Personally I find it very impressive...

Getting OpenMoko working on host with Xephyr

2007-09-13T17:18:25Z

C.M: SRCDATE_eds-dbus = "now" is wrong. Is it even needed?

The goal of this page is to show you how to run an OpenMoko development image on your host x86 development machine in a chrooted environment.

== What is Xephyr ==
[http://projects.o-hand.com/xephyr Xephyr] is a modern X Server in a window which can be used to simulate small displays in a desktop development enviroment. It is maintained on the [http://projects.o-hand.com/Home OpenedHand] projects page. Please note that even though it will render OpenMoko pixel for pixel, it will likely display almost 4 times larger than the actual device since portable devices tend to have smaller pixels than computer monitors.

== Build an OpenMoko Image ==

First, you'll need to build an openmoko-devel-image. You'll need to edit your local.conf file during build process (before step 5).

You should use [[MokoMakefile|Building OpenMoko using the MokoMakefile]] to build an openmoko-devel-image for your host architecture (x86 in our case). Make sure you put the moko makefile in /home/moko/Makefile .

Prior to that, edit your build/conf/local.conf to make it look like this:

MACHINE = "x86"
DISTRO = "openmoko"
BUILD_ARCH = "i686"
INHERIT += " devshell"

Once you have built the image, you can start working toward running the image.

([[User:Flerchjj]]) I also had to add the following line to "build/conf/local.conf" to get "make openmoko-devel-image" to complete.
TARGET_FPU = ""

== Setup the image filesystem ==

Please see the included help script at the bottom of this article. It should make your life much easier.

The filesystem of the image can be found at /home/moko/build/tmp/rootfs . It is that image that we want to run in a chrooted environment.

We will copy that that rootfs directory somewhere so that subsquent builds (using the MokoMakefile for instance) don't overwrite it.

Make sure you have root privileges:
su -

Copy the rootf into a directory called MokoBox. From now on, we will call the chrooted environment a MokoBox.

cp -r /home/moko/build/tmp/rootfs /home/moko/mokobox

make sure /dev and /proc of the host machine are visible from within mokobox

mount --bind /dev /home/moko/mokobox/dev
mount -t proc none /home/moko/mokobox/proc

Start/Move into the protected mokobox environment

chroot /home/moko/mokobox /bin/sh

=== In chroot'ed environment ===

set environment variables

DISPLAY=:1
LANG=C
HOME=/home/root
export DISPLAY LANG HOME

Create pango.modules file

pango-querymodules > /etc/pango/pango.modules

Create gdk-pixbuf.loaders file

gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders

Remove touch screen calibrator. Since touch screen hardware is not present, the touch screen calibration prevents X start-up on PC.

rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30xTs_Calibrate

== Starting the nested X server ==

=== Supplying fonts ===

You might need to install fonts supplied by OpenMoko to your host system. The easiest way to do is in Gnome is to go Preferences -> Font - > Details -> Go to font folder and then drag and drop TTF font files from build/tmp/rootfs/usr/share/fonts/ in Nautilus.
Using Xubuntu (no Gnome) I found copying the ttf folder into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts worked.

=== Launching Xephyr ===
In another terminal (not related to mokobox), start Xephyr

Xephyr :1 -ac -2button -host-cursor -screen 480x640

=== Start X Client ===
Now, back in chroo'ted environment, start X client:

eval $(dbus-launch)
/etc/X11/Xsession

You should see OpenMoko booting in the Xephyr window.

[[Image:Xephyr.png]]

== A sample script ==

The following script sets up the most of root fs environment automatically

<pre>
#!/bin/bash
#
# Set-up x86 OpenMoko root jail. This script must be run as root.
#
# Root jail is an environment, where the file system root has been
# changed to the OpenMoko root file system folder. Please don't
# use the build/rootfs, but make a copy of it, since build/rootfs
# gets overwritten each time you build openmoko-devel-image
#
# You need to set-up another X server (nested preferably) to
# act as a OpenMoko screen. Otherwise chrooted applications are executed
# as is on the host hardware and the kernel.
#
# See:
#
# http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_OpenMoko_working_on_host_with_Xephyr
#
#
# 2007 Mikko Ohtamaa - Red Innovation Ltd.
# <mikko@redinnovation.com>
#
# Do anything you wish with this script
#
#
#

# Setup required environment variables

# Xephyr must listen to this DISPLAY
DISPLAY=:1

# If we don't have locale, applications refuse to launch
LANG=C

# We are running as root in our chrooted environment

HOME=/home/root
export DISPLAY LANG HOME

# Update pango modules
pango-querymodules > /etc/pango/pango.modules

# Update icon images
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders

# Mount /dev and /proc file systems
mount --bind /dev ./dev
mount -t proc none ./proc

# Remove touch screen calibration start up app
# It doesn't launch on x86 and prevents X booting
if [ -e /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30xTs_Calibrate ] ; then
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30xTs_Calibrate
fi

# Use host name server information so that
# web browsing works
cp /etc/resolv.conf etc/resolv.conf

# Enter into chroot jail
chroot . /bin/sh

</pre>

== Improving Display Realism - Extending Xephyr with Xoo ==
[http://projects.o-hand.com/xoo/ Xoo] further extends [http://projects.o-hand.com/xephyr Xephyr] as to provide a poor mans device emulator. It is intended for embedded developers that want to simulate a target device (with an '''accurate''' display size, working hardware buttons, themed display, etc) on a desktop machine.

See [[Getting Openmoko working on host with Xoo]] for more information.

Talk:Community nominees for GTA02 P0

2007-09-10T13:32:30Z

C.M:

* So how many votes does one have then? If I have unlimited votes, where do I draw the line? /[[User:hhf423|hhf423]]

** My idea was one vote per nominee per person. Since there will be more than one GTA02 Neo available, if I have 5 persons that I think should get one of those I should be able to put a vote on each one. /[[User:C.M|C.M]]

*** So I can vote for anyone nominated? Then I will vote for everyone, because they all did something valueable :-). It is probably more sensible to limit the number of votes to the number of phones FIC might give to community nominated persons. I mean, they will have their own list that may or may not overlab with ours. Or we ask ourself: who has done 450 USD+ worth of work, that would also be a prossibility. /[[User:hhf423|hhf423]]

**** That's fine with me, but we need to push some more lazy people to nominate and give votes. I think rwhitby should have one too, but left him out because I was hoping someone else would nominate too. ;) /[[User:C.M|C.M]]

Ipkg

2007-09-02T09:56:07Z

C.M:

The practical way to install software on OpenMoko is with the [http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Ipkg Ipkg package manager], possibly via the graphical [[Application Manager]]. Naturally, you need to have obtained an OpenMoko system by other means initially.

For the latest ipk package files from buildhost put the following lines in your /etc/ipkg/base-feed.conf:
src/gz all http://buildhost.openmoko.org/OM2007.2/tmp/deploy/glibc/ipk/all/
src/gz armv4t http://buildhost.openmoko.org/OM2007.2/tmp/deploy/glibc/ipk/armv4t/
src/gz fic-gta01 http://buildhost.openmoko.org/OM2007.2/tmp/deploy/glibc/ipk/fic-gta01/

In the shell, "ipkg update" will update the list of available packages, "ipkg upgrade" will download and install all packages that have a newer version available and "ipkg install new-app" will download and install "new-app".

== History ==

Ipkg re-implements for embedded systems the Debian tools dpkg, apt, and apt-get. For example, it uses much less disk space for the package metadata.

MokoMakefile

2007-08-31T21:45:19Z

C.M: /* Tips */

==MokoMakefile==
MokoMakefile is a fully automated way of setting up an OpenMoko development environment. It is an invaluable tool for getting new developers up and running with a build environment which is configured the same as all the other existing developers. It brings the same repeatability to build environment creation and maintenance as that which OpenEmbedded brings to the main task of actually building embedded software distributions.

Note that MokoMakefile does *not* replace bitbake, or svn, or monotone, or openembedded, or qmake, or anything else. It is a wrapper around all that to make it easy to set up and maintain a development environment that fully complies with the setup instructions published by OpenMoko. Note that you need about 12 GB of available disk space for MokoMakefile to succeed (see below for a tip on how to reduce this to . Please check that your RAM + swap partition space is greater than 512 MB (around 1GB?). Note that the initial build can take 5 hours (on 2GHz core2duo without multiprocessor optimization) to several days.

MokoMakefile is developed by [[User:RodWhitby|Rod Whitby]] - it is not an official product of OpenMoko (although I would be happy for them to pick it up and use it internally). If there is any discrepancy between the [[Building_OpenMoko_from_scratch|official OpenMoko build instructions]], and the operation of the MokoMakefile, then you should consider the official instructions to be correct.

The MokoMakefile is able to build either OM-2007.1 or OM-2007.2 images. The core team chooses the default, but you can select one or the other at the top of the Makefile.

=== Installation ===

==== With Qemu ====
This is an easy and good way to install a local version of openmoko on your linux computer(ubuntu). This is mostly the fastest way to get things working (approximatly 15 min)

see [[MokoMakefile#QEMU]]

==== Manually ====
Here are the steps to use it:

1 - Make sure your build host is set up according to:
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro
2 - Create your $OMDIR directory (note that you can change ~/moko to any directory you like):
mkdir ~/moko ; cd ~/moko
3 - Grab MokoMakefile:
wget http://www.rwhitby.net/files/openmoko/Makefile

If that doesn't work, try

wget http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/mokomakefile/trunk/Makefile

note: If you want to compile for the old version 2007.1 instead of the new
version edit the top of the Makefile. Edit the lines at the top to
look like this:
OPENMOKO_GENERATION = 2007.1
#OPENMOKO_GENERATION = 2007.2
On kubuntu and Debian Etch I also had to apt-get install help2man

4 - Set up the environment:
make setup
5 - Start building. Before starting a lengthy make process, check in Tips section about how to make Make multicore aware. You may want to modify the build/conf/local.conf file for your target (emulation/chroot) environment:
make openmoko-devel-image

This will set up the recommended directory structure as described in [[Building OpenMoko from scratch]], will download all the required software (from the right places with the right versions), and will immediately start building an image.

Once you have done this, you can choose to continue using the MokoMakefile to initiate your subsequent builds, or you can go into the build directory and run bitbake commands manually. The choice is yours.

===Updating the environment===
For easy maintenance of your build environment the following commands are available.

1 - To update the MokoMakefile to the latest version:
make update-makefile

2 - To make sure that any recent changes to the build directory structure have been applied:
make setup

3 - To update the OpenMoko repository checkout and the MokoMakefile patches to the latest version:
make update

A quick way to rebuild a new image with the latest updates:
make update-makefile && make setup update openmoko-devel-image

===Reporting Problems===

First, make sure that the problem is reproducible after running

make update-makefile && make setup && make update

then running

make clean-package-<foo>

(where you replace <foo> with the name of the package which is failing)

then running

make all

If you can get the error to occur three times in a row after running that sequence of commands (including the update and setup steps) three times, then feel free to report it to rwhitby in #openmoko on [http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Development_resources#IRC IRC].

===Known MokoMakefile errors===

If you experience the following after changing from OM-2007.1 to OM-2007.2:

Patch bitbake-1.6.6-om3.patch does not apply (enforce with -f)

then type "make clobber-patches" to fix it. There was a period of 24 hours when there was a bug in the MokoMakefile which causes this problem. Once the patches have been clobbered, they will re-download and the problem will not reoccur.

===Work-arounds===

Work-arounds for temporary or isolated problems should be added to the [[Talk:MokoMakefile|Discussion page]] which is associated with this page. As they are fixed, they will be removed from that page.

===Tips===
*You can reduce the amount of consumed disk space significantly by adding
INHERIT += "rm_work"
in your local.conf (e.g. ~/moko/build/conf/local.conf). This will remove the contents of each build/tmp/work/*/<package> directory after the corresponding package builds correctly.

*If you an encounter an error with monotone similar to the following:
mtn: misuse: database /home/''username''/moko/OE.mtn is laid out according to an old schema
Then you need to upgrade OE.mtn Use the following command while in ~/moko:
# mtn --db OE.mtn db migrate

*If a certain package does not build due to corrupted download or some such try to remove the sources and rebuild it.
rm sources/<package>*
cd build
. ../setup-env
bitbake -crebuild <package>
after that your build might just work again.

*For people with multiple CPU's (or dual-core ones) this small patch might be useful to build things faster.
Edit the local.conf and add the following lines:
PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 4"
BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4"

Change the PARALLEL_MAKE and BB_NUMBER_THREADS values to something that suits better if it chokes your machine.

*For amd64 host users you need the patch from http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1765 to build db3-native

* If you encounter an error related with the qemu-native package and not compiling for the qemu, you can edit the build/conf/local.conf file and add ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0" line to avoid the error.

* To prevent building tons of locales, add a line like this to local.conf:
GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES = "en_US.UTF-8 nl_NL.UTF-8"

* To not build any binary locales at all, add this to local.conf:
ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0"

===QEMU===
The MokoMakefile now has support for automatically building, flashing, and running [[OpenMoko under QEMU|the new Neo1973 emulator]] (which is based on QEMU).

====Install in Ubuntu (7.04)====
Make sure your build host is set up according to:
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro
make a new directory:
mkdir openmoko
cd openmoko
install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get install gcc-3.4 lynx netpbm libsdl1.2-dev dosfstools
get the openmokofile:
wget http://www.rwhitby.net/files/openmoko/Makefile
build it for Qemu:
make qemu
This will build openmoko for Qemu. Once that is completed, it will automatic run it into the emulator. After you have closed it and want to run openmoko again, you should use the following command:
make run-qemu

remark: If you want to calibrate your screen,
look at http://onlinedev.blogspot.com/2007/08/calibrating-openmoko-v20072.html

====Others====

Dependencies:

*gcc 3.4 or 3.3 ('apt-get install gcc-3.4' in Ubuntu 7.04)

“'''make qemu'''” will build qemu-neo1973, download the latest official OpenMoko images, flash the images into the virtual NAND flash, create an empty virtual SD card, and run the emulator (you still need to install the makefile as mentioned above, however). If this is all you want to do, then you don't even need monotone installed on the machine, and you don't need to download the OpenEmbedded monotone database. Just make sure you don't type "make setup" (as that will invoke all the monotone and openembedded stuff).

Other targets are “'''make download-images'''” (to download the latest official images), “'''make flash-qemu-official'''” (to flash those images) and “'''make flash-qemu-local'''” (which will flash your latest locally built images), which can then be followed by “''''make run-qemu'''” or “'''make run-qemu-snapshot'''” to run the emulator with the most recently flashed images. You can also use “''''make qemu-copy-package-''foo'''''” to copy the <code>.ipk</code> file for package ''foo'' to the virtual SD card, and later use “''''ipkg install /media/mmcblk0/''file'''''” from within the emulated Neo1973 to install the package.

You're also invited to read more about how to run [[OpenMoko under QEMU]] in the article dedicated to this subject.

===Developing with MokoMakefile===

{{note|If using MokoMakefile with OM2007.2 then references to $OMDIR/openmoko should be replaced with $OMDIR/openembedded. Also references to tmp/work/armv4t-linux should be replaced with tmp/work/fic-gta01-angstrom-linux-gnueabi}}

For the following explanations $OMDIR is the directory where there Makefile puts all the stuff.

To make in-tree changes and have them built and used by qemu:

cd $OMDIR/openmoko
quilt new descriptive-patch-name.patch
quilt add trunk/src/name-of-file-to-change # do this for every file you are about to modify
...make the changes...
quilt refresh # this creates a file in $OMDIR/patches/openmoko-HEAD/ and updates the quilt series file there

Note: Do '''NOT''' use absolute paths as this confuses quilt and will get you a diff of the file against /dev/null!

To build the changes and have them used by qemu:

make build-qemu
make flash-qemu-local
make run-qemu

If you want to modify applications instead of the openmoko toolchain, this is what you have to do (example: openmoko-messages):

cd $OMDIR/build
. ../setup-env
bitbake -c unpack openmoko-messages
cd ../build/tmp/work/armv4t-linux/openmoko-messages-0.0.1+svnnow-r2_2276/openmoko-messages/
...make the changes...
cd -
bitbake openmoko-messages

Then continue with MokoMakefile usage.

If you want to add an application to your openmoko distribution, do this:
All file edits should be done using quilt as described above. That way a patch can easily be submitted to the openmoko project.
First, create a directory that will correspond to your package and edit a '''.bb''' file in there:
cd $OMDIR/openmoko/
quilt new mycoolpackage.patch
mkdir trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage
quilt add trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage/mycoolpackage_1.bb
quilt edit trunk/oe/packages/mycoolpackage/mycoolpackage_1.bb

The file should have the following content:
DESCRIPTION = "This is a cool package"
SECTION = "username/mycoolpackage"
PV = "1"

inherit autotools

SRC_URI = "http://www.example.com/download/mycoolpackage-1.tar.gz"

Explanation:
* DESCRIPTION - Just a short text explaining the package
* SECTION - I have no clue, but I'll use username/mycoolpackage for now
* PV - Package Version
* inherit autotools - The package can be compiled by './configure && make && make install' so we tell MokoMakefile to do it this way.
* SRC_URI = ... - This is the download location of the package source. It's imperative that the tar.gz contains a directory called '''packagename-packageversion''' (in this case: mycoolpackage-1) so that MokoMakefile can find it automatically or the build will fail.

This is not all. We also need to tell MokoMakfile that it needs to build and include the package in the image. To do this, do
$OMDIR/openmoko# quilt edit trunk/oe/packages/tasks/task-openmoko.bb
Here, increase the value '''PR''' by one and add '''mycoolpackage \''' (with the backslash!) just before the line reading '''# update-alternatives \'''.

Now run
quilt refresh
cd ..
make update all

And if everything's alright you should now have an OpenMoko image to flash to your phone or run in qemu as described above.

=== Hello World application ===

There is a [http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Building_a_hello_world_application Hello World!] tutorial available too.

===Testimonials===
MokoMakefile is recommended by 4 out of 4 new developers on #openmoko, with testimonials such as "For some reason last night I couldn't get my manual install of everything to work (bb complained about my bbpath I think) ... but with your makefile, it works great!", "MokoMakefile rocks!", and "Wow this build system is nice - it just seems more polished than my gumstix toolchain buildroot system".

OpenMoko2007.2

2007-08-19T19:23:21Z

C.M: fix command instructions (devel- was missing)

== FAQ ==
=== What is 2007.2? ===

As of 2007-07-26 the development of the next version of the OpenMoko distribution has begun.

Goals of the new version are an improved set of PIM applications, improved theming that fixes a lot of the usability problems of the 1st generation design, more formalized UI guidelines and a number of changes in the build system. The latter should introduce more recent software by staying closer in sync with upstream org.openembedded.dev.

An official announcement is expected soon (Aug 19).

(Initially this was named OM-2008 in SVN but renamed shortly after that.)

=== What are differences between 2007.1 and 2007.2? ===

=== Where to get images? ===

[[OpenMoko2007.2#Pre-built_snapshot_images|Unofficial images]]

=== Where are official images? ===

No official images yet.

=== My mrxvt (terminal) fonts are huge. ===

Edit src/feature.h to set MIN_XFT_FONT_SIZE to lower value:
#define MIN_XFT_FONT_SIZE (2)
and rebuild mrxvt & openmoko-devel-image.

End edit /etc/mrxvt/mrxvt.conf
Mrxvt.xftSize: 4
Mrxvt.xftHint: 1

== How to build ==

The MokoMakefile is now able to build OM-2007.2 images. If you use this new version of the MokoMakefile, you can ignore everything below and just continue building OM-2007.2 in the same way that you previously built images (i.e. according to http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/MokoMakefile). Make sure you set the generation correctly at the top of the file.

'''Please note that this is no official guide on how to build OM-2007.2. I am just making my first steps getting this to compile and think it would be a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprietary_software waste of time] of I keep problems I found for my own. Additionally it would be good if the new distro gets more exposure and testing so less things will break after the official announcement.'''

Follow the [http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/GettingStarted getting started] steps of OpenEmbedded. Use Bitbake 1.8.6 not a SVN version from the stable branch (otherwise you will get problems with checking out repositories) and the ''org.openembedded.dev'' branch of OE.

Put the following in your local.conf

BBFILES = "${HOME}/oe/org.openembedded.dev/packages/*/*.bb"

MACHINE = "fic-gta01"
DISTRO = "openmoko"

ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "1"
GLIBC_GENERATE_LOCALES = "en_GB.UTF-8"

Replace "${HOME}/oe" with the path to where your "org.openembeded.dev" folder lives. For the other entries have a look at ''conf/local.conf.sample'' about their meaning.

Run ''bitbake <package name>'' (e.g. openmoko-devel-image).

Hopefully the MokoMakeFile is soon upgraded to be used for OM-2007.2. Since OpenMoko is not using the overlay any more that makefile should be simpler then. :-)

=== Build issues ===

==== Wrong certificate ====
You may get something like this while the bitbake recipes are parsed:

Error validating server certificate for 'https://libw100.svn.sf.net:443':
- The certificate hostname does not match.
Certificate information:
- Hostname: *.svn.sourceforge.net
- Valid: from Fri, 27 Oct 2006 12:05:58 GMT until Sun, 28 Oct 2007 13:05:58 GMT
- Issuer: Equifax Secure Certificate Authority, Equifax, US
- Fingerprint: f2:6c:fe:bb:82:92:30:09:72:dd:1c:b3:e7:56:69:c7:7a:df:67:3e

That is an issue in a bitbake file. One should not use the short-name for sourceforge (sf.net) when certificates are only for exact host names. Accept the certificate and everything is fine for now.

==== openmoko-libs FTBFS ====
Some applications have not been fully modified to build with the new libraries of OpenMoko and still need the old-style ''openmoko-libs'' package. ''libmokogsm'' which is needed for ''openmoko-libs'' then fails to build. As a workaround you can remove the not yet ported applications that need ''openmoko-libs'' making it unneccessary itself. To do this edit ''packages/tasks/openmoko-taks.bb'' and find the following lines:

.
.
.
openmoko-terminal \
matchbox-panel-2 \
matchbox-panel-2-applets \
matchbox-applet-inputmanager \
# openmoko-appmanager \
matchbox-keyboard \
matchbox-stroke \
openmoko-keyboard \
.
.
.

Now put a hash (''#'') before ''openmoko-terminal'' and ''openmoko-keyboard''. You can verify that ''openmoko-libs'' is not needed any more by issuing ''bitbake -g openmoko-devel-image'' (= creates a dependency graph). There should be no mentioning of ''openmoko-libs'' in the file ''task-depends.dot''. '''Please note that the graphicall terminal and the virtual keyboard will be missing now.''' You can still have terminal access by following the [[USB Networking]] guide. For keyboard input in Qemu add the ''-usbdevice keyboard'' switch.

==== gtk+ fails building w/ gtkcombobox.c ====

If you get these errors:

gtkcombobox.c: In function 'gtk_combo_box_size_request':
gtkcombobox.c:1859: warning: unused variable 'font_desc'

Go to your /build/tmp/work/fic-gta01-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gtk+-2.10.14-r3/gtk+-2.10.14/gtk directory, and patch gtkcombobox.c with the following:

==== Building glibc fails with a segfault in QEMU ====

If your build aborts and you see something like this:

NOTE: package glibc-2.5: started
NOTE: package glibc-2.5-r6: task do_package: started
NOTE: preparing tree for binary locale generation
NOTE: generating locale en_US (UTF-8)
qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - exiting

...

NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 271 tasks of which 0 didn't need to be rerun and 1 failed.
ERROR: '/home/moko/oe/org.openembedded.dev/packages/glibc/glibc_2.5.bb' failed

Try editing your local.conf file. Change:

ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "1"

to

ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION = "0"

and restart the build. This may have some effect on internationalization (you will see a warning indicating that), but at least the build will continue. Thanks to rwhitby for the tip.

Alternatively, as suggested by XorA in #openmoko, if you are running a 64-bit host distribution, try forcing a different QEMU rev, also in local.conf:

PREFERRED_VERSION_qemu-native = "0.9.0+cvs20070701"
SRCDATE_qemu-native = 20070701

==== libxml2-native fails with xmlCatalogPtr errors ====

Go to your build/tmp/work/i686-linux/libxml2-native-2.6.29-r1/libxml2-2.6.29/include/libxml/ directory and patch xmlversion.h with the following:

--- xmlversion.h 2007-08-17 10:45:42.000000000 +0100

On my system the libxml2-native-2.6.29-r1 directory is in a directory named i686-linux, yours may be different. I believe this patch to be a workaround to make libxml2-native build. I am not yet sure what the consequences of enabling XML catalogue support are.

=== Flashing with MokoMakefile ===
Since MokoMakefile has not been adjusted to use the new build layout you cannot use it. As a quick hack to make flashing local built image possible again try this:

Find the following lines in the MokoMakefile:

flash-qemu-local: stamps/qemu stamps/openmoko-devel-image
( cd build/qemu && openmoko/flash.sh ../tmp/deploy/images )

And replace them with:

flash-qemu-local: stamps/qemu
( cd build/qemu && openmoko/flash.sh <MY_NEW_BUILD_DIR>/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/fic-gta01 )

Where you should replace <MY_NEW_BUILD_DIR> with the full path to your build directory (the one where ''conf/local.conf'' lives in). Running the image should work, too. :-)

With this changes kernel and uboot image are picked up correctly. However the name of the root filesystem image has changed in OM-2007.2 and the current scripts will not pick it up any more. Just edit ''$OM_DIR/build/qemu/openmoko/env'' and change the line saying:

rootfs_wildcard="openmoko-*.rootfs.jffs2"

to

rootfs_wildcard="OpenMoko-*.rootfs.jffs2"

Now it will work correctly again.

== How to build using nslu2-linux MasterMakefile (Ubuntu 7.04) ==

Note that the normal MokoMakefile can build OM-2007.2 now, so there is no need to use the procedure below. The nslu2-linux master makefile is designed for building various OE distributions, and is likely to produce something different from the standard OpenMoko images.

[disclaimer]

'''Check that your /bin/sh (ls -l /bin/sh) is not linked to dash rather than bash.''' Using dash will cause you pain. This is true for a standard install of Ubuntu 7.04 (at least when installing from Live CD). If your /bin/sh points to /bin/dash, correct it with (as root):
ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh

Note: on http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro are better instructions for Ubuntu to make sh be bash.

Create your $OMDIR directory (note that you can change ~/OM-2007.2 to any directory you like):
mkdir ~/OM-2007.2 ; cd ~/OM-2007.2

Grab the nslu2-linux [http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Development/MasterMakefile MasterMakefile]:
wget http://www.nslu2-linux.org/Makefile

This will make sure you'll have all the required packages:
sudo apt-get install \
autoconf automake automake1.9 \
bison \
ccache cogito \
cvs \
diffstat \
docbook \
flex \
gcc g++ gawk gcj gettext git-core \
help2man \
libc6-dev libglib2.0-dev libtool libxext-dev\
m4 make \
patch pkg-config \
python python-dev python2.4 python2.4-dev python-psyco \
sed \
sharutils \
texinfo texi2html \
unzip \
subversion \
sysutils \
texinfo \
bzip2

Ubuntu 7.04 comes with monotone 0.31. You could just go with that and do a mtn db migrate but this takes hours so the easier way would be to download a suitable mtn db from http://www.openembedded.org/snapshots/ and use this.
mkdir -p monotone
wget http://www.openembedded.org/snapshots/\
OE-this-is-for-mtn-<your mtn version>.mtn.bz2 -O monotone/nslu2-linux.mtn.bz2
bunzip2 monotone/nslu2-linux.mtn.bz2

If you're using MokoMakefile for building OM2007.1 you probably have fresh OE.mtn for version 0.31 already downloaded. So you can just make symlink to the OE.mtn in your OM2007.1 build directory.

(current directory(pwd) is /path/to/OM2007.2)
ln -s /path/to/OM2007.1/OE.mtn monotone/nslu2-linux.mtn

To save even more bandwith you can also use already donwloaded source files from OM2007.1. Just make a symlink to OM2007.1 sources directory. Something like this.

(current directory(pwd) is /path/to/OM2007.2)
ln -s /path/to/OM2007.1/sources downloads

Go build ;)
make openmoko-devel-image

* If you an encounter an error with monotone similar to the following:

mtn: misuse: database monotone/nslu2-linux.mtn is laid out according to an old schema

Then you need to upgrade nslu2-linux.mtn Use the following command:

# mtn --db monotone/nslu2-linux.mtn db migrate

To work around this problem, download from here http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download and save into the sources/ subdirectory beneath where you are running make. Then create a file named dejavu-ttf-2.15.tar.bz2.md5 alongside the tar.bz2 file that contains the MD5 checksum on that download page. Then issue the make command again and the build will pick up where it left off.

== do_compile fails with unreconized option '-Qy' ==

I use bash for my shell and this seems to be caused by something in my .bashrc For now, I have just commented out my .bashrc for my builds. It has something to do with the PATH variable. Try using

to get around it.

Any insight here? --[[User:Adam|Adam]] 23:10, 15 May 2007 (CEST)

== Building on Fedora Core 6 ==

Install stuff needed for OpenMoko:
# yum install python m4 make wget curl ftp cvs monotone subversion \
tar bzip2 gzip unzip python-psyco ccache perl texinfo texi2html \
diffstat openjade docbook-style-dsssl docbook-style-xsl docbook-dtds \
docbook-utils sed bison bc glibc-devel gcc binutils pcre pcre-devel git \
quilt groff linuxdoc-tools patch compat-gcc-34 lynx netpbm
(notice ''compat-gcc-34'' wich was needed for FC6 (gcc 4 installed), and ''lynx'' which is needed by ''qemu'' (no fallback to ''wget'', ''curl'', or ''links'' at the moment and no check for it, resulting in strange "sleep" errors when trying to build without ''lynx'').

Build it:
$ make setup
$ make openmoko-devel-image
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ make update-makefile && make update && make setup && make openmoko-devel-image

I have also done a
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH; make update-makefile && nice make update && nice make setup && nice make all
(This takes several hours)

Build qemu:
$ make qemu

Run it:
# echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
$ make run-qemu
This will bring up the OpenMoko :) Use SPACE for AUX and ENTER for POWER.
Not quite the same as holding a Neo1973 in your hands I would guess, but this is the best we can do for now. Thanks!

== U-Boot compilation fails ==
Currently OpenMoko always uses the latest U-Boot sources. That causes problems because sometimes the patches OpenMoko wants to
add to U-Boot do not fit anymore. Later on the build fails.

A workaround would is to modify ''openembedded/packages/uboot/uboot-gta01_svn.bb''
and change the first entry in SRC_URI to: '''git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git/;protocol=git;tag=c0c292b2852a12e9d93e99b3aaf5b0dac5f36fdc'''

'''IMPORTANT''': As this is only a workaround do not flash the resulting U-Boot image onto the device. Use an official [http://buildhost.openmoko.org/tmp/deploy/images/ build] instead.
== Fails trying to build bluez-utils ==

To work around this problem, download from here http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download and save into the sources/ subdirectory beneath where you are running make. Then create a file named dejavu-ttf-2.15.tar.bz2.md5 alongside the tar.bz2 file that contains the MD5 checksum on that download page. Then issue the make command again and the build will pick up where it left off.

== do_compile fails with unreconized option '-Qy' ==

I use bash for my shell and this seems to be caused by something in my .bashrc For now, I have just commented out my .bashrc for my builds. When I figure out what is really going on, I will put my findings here.

It has something to do with the PATH variable. Try using "PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin make openmoko-devel-image" to get around it.

Any insight here? --[[User:Adam|Adam]] 23:10, 15 May 2007 (CEST)

== Building on Fedora Core 6 ==

Install stuff needed for OpenMoko:
# yum install python m4 make wget curl ftp cvs monotone subversion \
tar bzip2 gzip unzip python-psyco ccache perl texinfo texi2html \
diffstat openjade docbook-style-dsssl docbook-style-xsl docbook-dtds \
docbook-utils sed bison bc glibc-devel gcc binutils pcre pcre-devel git \
quilt groff linuxdoc-tools patch compat-gcc-34 lynx netpbm
(notice ''compat-gcc-34'' wich was needed for FC6 (gcc 4 installed), and ''lynx'' which is needed by ''qemu'' (no fallback to ''wget'', ''curl'', or ''links'' at the moment and no check for it, resulting in strange "sleep" errors when trying to build without ''lynx'').

Build it:
$ make setup
$ make openmoko-devel-image
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ make update-makefile && make update && make setup && make openmoko-devel-image

I have also done a
$ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH; make update-makefile && nice make update && nice make setup && nice make all
(This takes several hours)

Build qemu:
$ make qemu

Run it:
# echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
$ make run-qemu
This will bring up the OpenMoko :) Use SPACE for AUX and ENTER for POWER.
Not quite the same as holding a Neo1973 in your hands I would guess, but this is the best we can do for now. Thanks!

== U-Boot compilation fails ==
Currently OpenMoko always uses the latest U-Boot sources. That causes problems because sometimes the patches OpenMoko wants to
add to U-Boot do not fit anymore. Later on the build fails.

A workaround would is to modify ''openembedded/packages/uboot/uboot-gta01_svn.bb''
and change the first entry in SRC_URI to: '''git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git/;protocol=git;tag=c0c292b2852a12e9d93e99b3aaf5b0dac5f36fdc'''

'''IMPORTANT''': As this is only a workaround do not flash the resulting U-Boot image onto the device. Use an official [http://buildhost.openmoko.org/tmp/deploy/images/ build] instead.

Explaining carriers versus phones

2007-07-17T06:18:16Z

C.M: Fixed the Neo1973 wiki links

This page is to develop an explanation to help people who are confused by the separation between carriers and phones, and the different technologies involved.

== The question ==

Some questions being asked:

* "Which service do we provide"
* "Which plan do I need"

== Carrier/phone separation ==

The [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is only a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone phone]. It's not tied to any specific [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_network_operator carrier], nor to any specific plans. If your carrier uses the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM GSM] technology, you can take any unlocked GSM phone which uses the same [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies frequencies] as your carrier and use it.

== Different technologies: CDMA versus GSM ==

There are several different technologies used in the cellular world. The two most important are known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IS-95 CDMA] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM GSM]. These technologies are not compatible; a phone designed for one of them will ''not'' work on a cellular network which uses the other technology. Unless your carrier is one of the few who use both technologies, you must chose a phone with the same technology your carrier uses. You could also do the opposite—chose a carrier who uses the technology of the phone you have or intend to buy.

The [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] works only on GSM networks.

== Technical details: cell phone frequencies ==

There are several different [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies radio frequency bands] allocated for cell phone use. Each carrier uses one or more of them; which frequency bands are available depends on the country the carrier is in. A phone will only work with a carrier if it can use the frequency bands the carrier uses. Most phones can use more than one frequency band; [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_band dual band], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri_band tri band] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quad_band quad band] phones are very common. A quad band phone will work with almost any GSM network in the world.

The [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is a quad-band GSM phone, so you do not have to worry about this.

== Technical details: SIM ==

The reason you can take any unlocked GSM phone with suitable frequency bands and use it on your carrier is that your cellular phone line is not tied to your phone, but to a small (25 mm × 15 mm × 0.76 mm) miniature [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_card smart card], usually hidden behind the phone's battery. This card can be removed and inserted in another phone, which will then be able to use the phone line.

The [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]]'s SIM card slot is hidden behind its battery.

== Technical details: subsidy lock ==

Some phones, usually phones bought together with a carrier's service plan, are [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsidy_lock locked], and will work only with SIM cards from the same carrier (or sometimes only with one specific SIM card). You can still, however, remove the SIM card and use it on a different unlocked phone (or a locked phone from the same carrier, if the lock is not specific to the SIM card). Usually only phones sold by the carrier itself are locked, and some carriers allow you to ask for your phone to be unlocked (usually either asking for a fee or after some time on your contract).

The [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is an unlocked phone.

== Conclusion ==

You need a plan from a GSM carrier to use your [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]]. Only buying a [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] will not give you the ability to make phone calls (with the possible exception of emergency calls), since it does not come with a SIM card. You need to have both.

== Analogies ==

Some useful analogies:

* A [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is like a conventional fixed phone, and the wireless carrier is like a conventional phone company. Your phone service is independent from the phone device; you must have both, but you can replace either independently.
* A [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is like your computer, and the wireless carrier is like your Internet connection. While you can buy your computer with an Internet connection plan, they are most of the time completely independent.
* A [[Neo1973|Neo 1973]] is like a TV receiver, and the wireless carrier is like the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-the-air over-the-air] public TV network.
