[edit] News

2009-08-16 first version with austrian stuff, and focus on everyday usability
2009-08-30 now with a-gps and cellhunter
a-gps uses your GSM cellinfo to get location from cellhunter, then reads a-gps data from u-blox
have fun ...
2009-09-01 navit svn version was unstable, now fixed. also uses intone as musicplayer
2009-09-12 moving to SHR, since om2009 is dead

[edit] Installing

  • have at least 1,5 hours of time ready, for the whole procedure
  • have fast internet, you need to download lots of stuff
  • download exactly these versions of Om 2009 from z0ph
    1. [1] qi boot loader
    2. [2] kernel (kernöl)
    3. [3] root image


these are the original names of the files:

qi-s3c2442-1.0.2+gitr3b8513d8b3d9615ebda605de4bda18371aa3f359.udfu
fso-paroli-image-om-gta02.jffs2 (daily testing image from 16-Jun-2009 04:35   88M)
uImage-2.6.28-stable+gitr0+f19f259d3c1afde8eae53983fd19f61831927413-r3-om-gta02.bin
  • download customize pack from z0ph
    4. [4] customize pack (400 MBytes)
  • if you want it quick, you can instead download customize pack without navit maps, its much smaller
    5. [5] customize pack without maps (50 MBytes)

to download (or update!!) the austrian map file later do (you need fast internet on your neo):

cd /media/card/navit/
./get_austria.map.sh # this will download about 350 MBytes!!
  • unpack the customize pack to your SD-Card (to /media/card). my /media/card partition is type VFAT

[edit] Startup

  • boot up your neo, and let it run until paroli has logged in to your GSM net
  • then shutdown the neo (press and hold power button for a few seconds)
  • boot up your neo again, and let paroli log in to your GSM network again.

[edit] Localize for AT

  • for GOD's sake try NOT to get any phonecalls while you do this part
  • if at ANY time you get messages "Error loading Module: would you like to unload this module, bla bla" just press "yes" !!
  • if at ANY time you get messages "Fehler beim laden des Modules: möchten sie dieses Modul abschalten, bla bla" just press "yes" !!
  • now connect your neo with usb and login via ssh
  • you NEED internet on your neo for this, otherwise dependent packages can't be downloaded
  • start (as root on your neo):
cd /media/card/
./init_om2009.sh
  • this will take some time !! have coffee ready :-)

* just before this script is done, you have to comfigure E17 again. # select "Deutsch" als language (then press next) # select "paroli-serenity" as profile (then press next) # select "systemstandard" as menüs (then press next) # don't checkbox any applications in Quick Launch (then press next) * now wait for the customize script to finish

  • now start (also as root on your neo):
cd /media/card/
./do_opkg_upgrade.sh
  • hopefully no errors have occured

[edit] Test it

  • reboot your neo, and let paroli settle down and login to your GSM network
  • now navit should have austrian maps, and speak in german to you :-)
  • you can suspend/resume anytime! even when navit is speaking! yeah really, it works
  • date and time should also be correct
  • press AUX button quick and zedlock should come up, draw a big "Z" to unlock again
  • hold POWER button for 2 seconds, and neu will shutown
  • if shutdown with POWER button fails, go to illume home screen, pull down the menu and press the big red "X", a menu should appear

[edit] Test it (german)

  • Navit sollte alles in deutsch anzeigen, österreichkarten laden und vor allem der neo sollte beim laufen von Navit nicht blanken oder suspenden

[edit] Startup Times

0:00 press button to boot neo
0:12 splash logo visible
2:24 enlightenment splash screen visible
2:36 illume topshelf visible
2:48 illume desktop icons visible
3:17 paroli visible (GSM not yet logged in!)


those times seem pretty catastophic in comparison to a normal mobile phone yet for the neo they are not really bad :-)
