<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hello Radek,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">thank you very much! I tried v46 at
once yesterday evening and can confirm that the problems with phone calls
seem to be gone. Especially qtmoko now passes my standard test successfully:
Trying to call another phone and then hanging up while ringing. Now the
other phone indeed doesn't continue to ring any more. Great! Also asking
for pin after booting now seems to work reliably. Further tests need to
be done, but the first impression was very good.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Then I tried to send and receive SMS
and both worked fine. Especially I had to *lol* when seeing that the new
dreamlike keyboard in earnest wraps around the current input line. What
a crazy and fantastic idea! I like qtmoko more and more.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">After that I enjoyed a little bit playing
qtmaze, charged the battery while looking at the new current indicator
on the title screen and so on. The next days I'll try GPS again and this
time I also intend to find out from where to get suitable maps and how
to load them into neron.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The only severe thing that qtmoko is
still missing is to establish 3G connection to the internet with some fingertips,
but IIRC this has already been anounced for v47.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">So in the end I came to the following
results:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">a) This v46 seems to be the first qtmoko
that is *really* usable as a phone and especially that I can show to owners
of common commercial phones without earning too much stupid patter.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">b) I decided that now it's definitely
time to donate you for your work. Will you send me your bank data (switft,
iban, etc.) to my mail address so that I can transcribe to you, let's say
100 EUR?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Best regards,</font>

<br><tt><font size=2>Hi,<br>
QtMoko v46 for GTA04 is out! You can download here[1]. For more info please
<br>
visit our homepage [2].<br>
<br>
There are many changes since v45 so please consider this version a bit
<br>
experimental. List of changes is here:<br>
<br>
* upgraded to qt 4.7<br>
* checking for new SMS after resume (Neil Jerram)<br>
* HW voice routing for GTA04A4 (Andreas Kemnade)<br>
* not closing serial port on suspend now, it's not needed anymore<br>
* CLCC polling after resume to avoid missed call<br>
* make hangup of dialed call working<br>
* killing all programs that have open card on GSM call<br>
* using AUX led for missed calls now<br>
* accelerometers are now working on GTA04 (Neil Jerram)<br>
* accelerometer code is now in separate library (Neil Jerram)<br>
* fixed keyboard popup in nerongps (Neil Jerram)<br>
* instructions for building with emdebian toolchain<br>
* big always visible button for keyboard showing/hiding<br>
* yberbrowser - new touch friendly browser<br>
* qmplayer has now option to lock screen<br>
* qmplayer has reworked volume up/down<br>
* german keyboard layout installable from qtmoko apps web<br>
* fixed umlauts in german keyboard layout (Peter Fey)<br>
* removed simplefm from image<br>
* many debian package changes/workarounds for Qt 4.7<br>
* current_now value is displayed on the home screen<br>
* depend on libjpeg8-dev now and lsof package<br>
* system info now displays nice version info<br>
* downgraded to 3.2 kernel<br>
* gta04 init has fixed booting from mmcblk0p5..p9<br>
<br>
As you can see the most breaking change is Qt 4.7. It took me 3 years to
<br>
upgrade Qt. So now we have recent changes which mainly means:<br>
<br>
* we can have and we now have good web browser<br>
* it's possible to port new apps using qml and other new Qt features (monav,
<br>
marble, etc...)<br>
<br>
The new web browser is yberbrowser. It's fast, nice and touch friendly.
It's <br>
first time i have enjoyed browsing we in QtMoko. You can check this [3]
video <br>
or try it yourself.<br>
<br>
As for other changes. Most important is telephony and SMS. Since i upgraded
to <br>
GTA04A4 i had many problems - missed calls, SMS. I hope we have now found
<br>
workarounds and fixes for them. Thanks SHR guys for the idea of polling
SMS <br>
after resume and Neil Jerram for implementing them. Missed calls should
be now <br>
fixed too with CLCC polling after resume. I have been using this version
for <br>
some time and telephony looks good.<br>
<br>
GTA04A4 users can now enjoy HW sound routing thanks to Andreas Kemnade.
It <br>
works really good. Call volume can be now much louder without echo. MIC
volume <br>
could be probably higher - i'll leave this for v47.<br>
<br>
I have currently problems with ringtones - they cause no sound in calls.
This <br>
can be GTA04A4 specific bug, because i never had it with A3. Maybe this
is <br>
somehow related to this [4] message in kernel log. The workaround for now
is <br>
to use vibra motor - this is default in tar.gz image. You can do it manually
<br>
in settings->Ringtones and profiles->Meeting->activate from context
menu.<br>
<br>
Neil Jerram has also imlemented accelerometers for GTA04 and put it together
<br>
with GTA02 accels into separate library. You can test it in QtMaze. It
will be <br>
base for auto rotation in some next release.<br>
<br>
You can now always see how much energy is the phone drawing - on home screen
<br>
there are values for current_now/current_now_after_resume. It seems that
i <br>
have current_now after resume 35mA. This used to be 25mA on GTA04A3 - so
i <br>
wonder what can be problem. I tried older qtmoko releases and always had
<br>
33..35mA - i couldnt get to 25mA. I dont have A3 anymore so i cant check
if <br>
it's HW or SW problem.<br>
<br>
I think most of the other changes are quite self explaining. I am now working
<br>
on making GTA02 version. But my 2 week long holidays are starting on Monday
so <br>
it can be after holidays.<br>
<br>
<br>
Enjoy the release<br>
<br>
Radek<br>
