C1000/3x00 Hardware / Smallest (physically) Cf Wifi Card Available?

« on: November 10, 2010, 09:34:02 pm »

No, no Netgear.
The other card I have is a Symbol LA-4137. That sticks out about a mm or two more than the Ambicom.

Smallest protruberance with a card, is probably (still) the Ambicom series. All others I have stick out more, if only a mm or two.

I just checked all my Zaurus files and backups, and don't have them. Sorry.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Video Playback On Your Cxx00

I bought a 2000MaH battery for 15USD shipped from ebay/Hong Kong.  I imagine it's shown up but for complicated reasons, I can't get to my mail until the end of the month.  The price was right, though, if the thing did ship.

Let me know how that battery turns out. I have seen it as well and there is also a website that sells them for $10 but probably a little more with shipping. I asked the ebay seller when these batteries were actually manufactured (because lithium-ion degrade even when not used). I did not receive a response so I took that to mean a bad thing and didn't bother buying any.

Probably better than my current situation though. My current battery (official Sharp 5600 battery) seems to last an hour or so, less if I watch a movie or connect to wireless. With the original C3100 battery my Zaurus will complain that the battery is dead and put its self to sleep as soon as I try to connect to a wireless access point.

I have bought several of those batteries over the years, still have 2 that I have never actually used. They work perfectly fine, seemingly identical in capacity to the original Sharp battery............and SO much cheaper. Last time I bought one was about a month ago, got it from an ebay auction BIN for $12 shipped.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Status Of Pdaxrom

« on: September 12, 2010, 09:44:31 pm »

Agreed, much pdaXrom stuff has disappeared from the web.
I got this link 3 weeks ago from Meanie himself, and it's one of the few resources left I believe

Ubuntu / Howto: How Do I Restore A Zubuntu Installation Back To Cacko 1.23?

« on: September 07, 2010, 11:54:01 am »

Ok, finally got my a** moving and restored my akita back to Cacko 1.23 a few days ago.

So, care to say why you decided to switch back to Cacko? Besides ubuntu, have you tried other ROM's??

Pretty sure I have used a 8GB Micro Drive to restore a NAND backup. "Standard" formatting: Fat32, on a sl-c1000 with Cacko 1.23 ROM.

FWIW, I often stray plus or minus 10% from the "recommended" voltage without issue. YMMV.

They might have come with a remote built in too (not sure about that).
If you have a set let me know.

Software / Sdhc Card Driver <32gb

« on: August 13, 2010, 12:40:59 pm »

Well, I have owned a sl-c1000 for about 5 years now, and have semi-regularly patrolled around the oesf forums, but I had never seen mention of this thread before.
https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=27186
As it's really good news for a lot of zaurus owners, and it seemed to be a little misplaced in the forum it was originally posted, I thought I would spread it around a little more, and give it some love.

Accessories / C1000 + Twiddler

« on: August 12, 2010, 11:52:45 pm »

I plugged a USB mouse into my sl-c1000 and got a working cursor with nothing installed softwarewise.

Was that with the stock Sharp ROM, or the Cacko ROM (as listed in your signature)?

It's possible that Cacko has all the necessary drivers/software pre-included (mouse driver, InputHelper, etc.).

- ashikase
- osaka, japan

That was with a stock Cacko 123 ROM, except for the SD driver update to handle <4gb sd cards.

Accessories / Cf Wifi Card With External Antenna?

« on: August 12, 2010, 11:45:19 pm »

Well, I bought a Symbol LA-4137 off of Ebay. I don't have it yet, but the pic of the back of the card clearly shows a couple of antenna connectors. There's still a bunch more currently on Ebay, a seller in Hong Kong sells them for $12 shipped.

I read somewhere recently (forgotten where, sorry), about someone using a 32GB CF as a hard drive inside their 3100 or 3200.

Looks interesting. Not feeling like "risking" $500 though, personally.

I believe the card needs to be Fat32 formatted.
