Hi all, just wanted to share my experience with QT Extended:<br>
<br>
1) First off - I put [QtExtended] in the subject - hope this is okay.<br>
I have found it extremely convenient when others have done it, as it<br>
makes it easy to (quick)filter on subject. I would encourage other qt<br>
users to do the same.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Good idea, hope it is standardised across the list through regular chiding of posters.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>The first time I tried to add my local wlan network, I really didn't<br>
understand the logic in the settings: First add wlan, then add<br>
networks.<br>
To add new networks, I need to a) select wlan, b) Options->wlan<br>
detection, c) wait for autoscan to end, d) options-> add new<br>
networks..., e) select new network.<br>
Okay, it works, but is it the best way? Am I doing anything wrong here?<br>
</blockquote><div><br>I will try connecting to wlan tonight. However, I have not been able to get a successful internet connection through usb0, although the setup is the same as I had under OM2008.x. That is, Freeproxy on my Windows XP laptop bridging the otherwise uncrossable chasm between the corporate lan and the FR, alternating between OpenDNS and <a href="http://192.168.0.200">192.168.0.200</a> under resolv.conf, declaring environment proxy variables under both SSH and bash, etc.<br>
<br>Has anybody faced a similar issue and resolved it?<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
Main issues:<br>
7) volume/mic not properly adjusted when making a call: other part<br>
can't hear me, and I get too much noise to call it okay.<br>
I tried the gsmhandset.state provided by Franky (attachment to "Re:<br>
one day usage of qtextended"), but it didn't really solve the problem<br>
for me. Manually tweaking mic1/2 (and others) in 'alsamixer' during a<br>
call (usb, ssh) convinced me that it really can be done, but it is<br>
really hard to find the correct ratios.<br></blockquote><div><br>I think if someone even works out why the headset requires speakerphone mode to be set, and which too only works halfways, that would be a big leap forward. The interference problem is a hardware bug, and looking at the history, it may be one of the hardest ones to be solved through software. <br>

12) Great to see ppp support in the lates mwester kernel<br>
(uImage-gta02-g291a9d50_mwester-stable.bin)! Too bad I didn't manage<br>
to get it working. Anyone had any luck? Do I really have to tweak all<br>
those /etc/* files?<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Did you try GPRS? Where and how did you specify the APN? I can't figure it out either. <br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
15) Terminal: The "Back" button doesn't seem to work. Choosing<br>
Options/Exit does the trick, but gives an error: "Application<br>
terminated: Terminal was terminated due to application error."<br>
</blockquote><div><br>That is rather cosmetic. What really bugs is those duplicate calls and messages.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
16) Any timeframe on a working AGPS mapping software with<br>
autodownloadable maps....?<br>
</blockquote></div><br>Sadly, all great software currently uses pygtk. The developers might not want to do it under QT and their licenses...I hope I'm sadly mistaken here.<br></div>
