hmw_metalabI got a mint condition N900 with package and all accesoires for €100. It even has the protective foil on. But I bought it to use it as my main phone. Uhm. I _really_ need to fix my old N900.04:38

brolin_empeyhmw_metalab: All N900 are old. ;-)07:18
hmw_metalabHeheh. Didn't say, it was "new", did I? :)07:19
hmw_metalabAh, IC. Well.07:20
hmw_metalabMy _previous_ one refuses to charge. I inspected the USB port with a microscope and the solder looks fine. :(07:21
brolin_empeyStrange things often happen with electronics.  At my company, the integrated Ethernet controller on a desktop motherboard stopped working seemingly on its own.07:25
KotCzarnythere are points on the board nearby you can check continuity07:36
hmw_metalabTried that, could not get a beep from the other end of the USB cable to any of the test points07:37
hmw_metalabIs there a service manualß07:37

hmw_metalab"Do not paint the phone"... Uhm. Okay, I won't07:46
hmw_metalaband07:47
hmw_metalabUse only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  ...  All of the above suggestions apply equally to the product, battery, charger or any accessory.07:47
hmw_metalabI want a battery with antenna!#07:47
brolin_empeySamsung Galaxy smartphone batteries have an NFC version, which I think means the battery contains an antenna for NFC?07:49

KotCzarnynope09:43
KotCzarny~ping09:43
KotCzarnybot still missing and i dont have a link in history09:43
bencoh<+infobot> extra, extra, read all about it, usbfix is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=75920 - and **NEVER** use epoxy (unless you want to seal your device for underwater), or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYz5nIHH0iY#t=1866, you will basically need two irons: a small good one (or better hot-air reflow) and a 60+ Watt, or to avoid breakage, see ~usb-unplug09:52
Vajbfacebook-purple seems to be broken. Whines about invalid username or password. Haven't change neither and it still works with browser so I suppose blame is on purple.09:59
sicelomine was working, Vajb ... but let me confirm10:02
sicelotwo messages just came in ;)10:03
siceloclosed and re-opened pidgin .. works fine.10:05
Vajbhmm. For me it does not work. Tried re-starting pidgin with same results10:39
siceloyou can start pidgin in debug mode ... hopefully that'll tell you what's wrong10:45
Vajbit gives me nothing more detailed. It accepts cert and tells me that username or password was incorrect11:01
Vajberr invalid11:01
siceloVajb: how about deleting the account and re-add it13:50
* sicelo starts looking at KaiOS, longingly13:50
brolin_empeyWhy do humans exist?15:48
Vajbbrolin_empey: they provide electricity for machines. Didn't you see Matrix.15:53
brolin_empeyVajb: Are you saying that god is in the television?15:56
brolin_empeyI recently realised that, in around a decade, I went from not having a spreadsheet application on my handheld computer because I did not want to spend something like around thirty dollars on TinySheet (correct name?) for Palm OS to using Google Sheets for Android over a cellular Internet connection.16:01
