I've updated to the latest titchy-phoneui-glossy, very elegant.

However, it kills the mplayer in a rather nasty way if receive a call while playing the video. It affects -vo fbdev, don't know if other -vo options elicit the same behavior, however since fbdev is the fastest for playing video, it's a problem here.

When a call comes in, the video freezes on the screen, the ringtone plays, however the glossy frontend doesn't come up. You can accept the call, talk, and hang up, but then there is no way to get back to the console, or redraw the screen. I could suspend. Upon resume, the glossy frontend comes up, but it doesn't react to keypresses, and I didn't figure out a way to get back to the console, ESC doesn't help...

Further to dialing from titchy-phoneui:

It currently doesn't enable the advanced dialing functionalities, don't know if that's called this, but basically, for instance if you use a prepaid card, then for example to check the level of credit you just dial *104*# hit the dial key as if dialing a call, the phone queries the network for info and comes back with your remaining credit, in one of the networks that you use...

There are many other advanced dialing codes like this.

This currently doesn't work and would be desirable, as the only way to do it now, is to switch back to WM.

Do you have the ramdisk image installed?  Have you tried formatting the card for Linux using the phone itself?
I'm trying to do that, however not succeeding with this ramdisk, I have it installed, when it boots, I try to mkfs the card however there is no /dev/mmcblk0 node only a /dev/mmc/ directory that's empty. I've googled around tried mkfs'ing on /dev/mmc/disc however that doesn't work, so not sure how to progress.

As far as I can tell, the following should give some kind of result:
Code: [Select]
titchy-phone-daemon atcmd 'at+cusd=1,"*104*#",15'The command returns immediately, so you'll need to check the log after a few seconds for the result.
Code: [Select]
tail /var/log/titchy-phone-daemonI get "+CUSD: 5"; I don't know what that means.  If you get something more useful, I can add this functionality to the daemon.

I sent it to www.srsgmbh.de They were very responsive, I just prediscussed with them on the phone, then mailed the Uni in with a letter requesting the memory upgrade and my contact info. It took them 4 days to finish with the upgrade. At the end of the upgrade process, I received an email with payment details. You can pay by bank transfer or via Paypal. It cost EUR 131.50, including postage back to my country. I should receive the unit within a couple of days now. That's all.

So I got my upgraded Universal back, and seems it's not so easy...

When the Universal boots first into Windows Mobile, it reports only 48 Megs of memory, (What the?...) In the Device info then it shows 128M RAM, but in memory info only 48M. This I've seen at xda-developers.com. So it'd seem consistent with it.

However now I'm having problems booting Linux getting it to recognize the extra memory. By itself it just reports 64M still.

I got so far as to pass memsize=0x8000000 to haret before booting linux, but still 64M. Haven't found any ref of running linux on the Universal with 128M.

If anyone is running it on an memory-upgrade Universal, can you please share the options you have to pass to Haret for it to boot with the full extended memory?

Hi ShiroiKuma

I have no memory upgrade jet, but I made some pre research... So I have two, probably stupid, questions:
Did you install a 128M aware Windows ROM?
Did you try the test program for the memory size?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286861&page=5)

Perhaps the author of that software might help, he claims in his profile to have a 128M Uni
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=224595)

Please let me know how things are going....

Greetings

I stay in a moment with 64Mb, May I studied how they are running and benefits from 128Mb, I don`t want to give money for nothing
For WM 128mb know that Page Pool should be changed to 0 to work correctly
I think you know that
But if you don`t help anything to Linux is not a win in this upgrade

Probably there is a solution for this

They reflashed the Universal, with what should be an acceptable ROM. Don't know though, am gonna call them tomorrow.

I think it's useless, as the author says right below, that his prog is not working correctly...

I'm hoping it's just a wrong ROM, in which case a reflash should fix it, OTOH from what I've read, if you don't flash to a ROM supporting 128M then the Universal shouldn't boot. So it's looking complicated. Anyhow something is definitely wrong with my current setup...
