anybody else tried an andriod phone in direkt sunlight ?
was thinking of getting samsung galaxy S2
Oddly the best ones for direct sunlight would be the ereaders using e-ink screens.
(Kindle etc have been hacked, but might be too slow)

Not sure how TS would look in 16 shades of gray... will have to try it.

I'm looking if somebody did any code for Android in order to get logs from megasquirt, but didn't find anything...I will try to develope an application in first order to connect and get logs in my Android phone. I don't know a lot of Android programming...But I will try it. If all works well, next stage will be show in screen things like AFR, Ign Advance, etc..

I need to buy another module... I lost my last one before I could install it, otherwise I would have a full OpenGL rendered Android dashboard by now.

Don't worry this isn't going to be forgotten :)

I do keep getting side tracked with other stuff though. Hopefully about 2 months to and early something for the android.

Why not to make it like open source project. GIT can be used as version control. It should be fine. I like to be involed to Android and I think some people like as well.

Git and OSS would be great, but unfortunately all the TunerStudio stuff and MLV is all closed source pay-for-ware. Don't expect an OSS version from efianalytics. Maybe someone else will devote the time/energy to it. (I'd like to but have more pressing commitments at the present time).

Even the equivalent of the Palm tools would be better than nothing... I actually found 2 palms (a 3xe and a Clie SJ33) in working condition I'm playing with, waiting on serial cable for the 3XE to see if the palmlog/etc work with MS2-extra3.1x. (there was a post about it working with the alphas)

The CLIE SJ33 makes for a neat little MP3 player for 2003...

Unfortunately the basic compiler(?) seems NLA.

I have some old palm pilots, and they're plenty cheap on E-bay (5x Ithink?) but I've never tried to develop for them. Are the tools even still around?

The company that sold them (free for non commercial with a nag screen at startup) seems to be no more or at least no longer answering the phone/emails etc.

You used to be able to DL the compiler/interpreter or whatever it is, but I haven't found a link (yet), although there seems to be a pretty decent user community.
I have no idea but suspect there was another dev environment for Palm than HB++...

Hell, the Clie I dumpster dived for is as fast//faster and has ~as much memory as my Amiga 3000 did in the day, and I ran Linux/NetBSD/MacOS7.5 on it

Right now I'm trying to figure out if I can just use IRDA for comms, would save a lot of headaches buying/making cables and logic level adapters, if IRDA would work I could make an adapter and run it out over 200um plastic fiber to any reasonable distance.
A good IRDA transciever costs like $10, and it would work (AFAIK) with ANY Palm derivative.
(Some of the later Clies were pretty badass with wifi etc, I'd own one now)

After waking up (this AMs post after 28 hrs day) it looks like PalmOS std dev environment is std C/C++, SDK etc available, there is even a gcc port from 2003 etc

http://prc-tools.sourceforge.net/

I'll start another thread as I find more info.

msefi seems to have forgotten I exist (user since 2004), is it worth starting a Palm forum here? Seems dead over there.

Explain that to linux and other FOSS developers....

I'm not a fan of the free tease semi-featured edition, to nag-ware, to pay for only transition that TS has utilized, its similar to how Microsoft gives out severely discounted windows to schools and other entities in order to lock-in users to their monoculture to build future market share. I find it highly unethical, and selfish. Phil or whomever writes/markets TS is free to do whatever they wish , its just not a policy I agree with or condone.

Not agreeing with someone is something but calling him selfish because he's making people pay for his work is totally retarded. You do whatever you want with your tuning software and same for Phil. I paid for TunerStudio and the 50$ (or whatever how much he want) is not much for the time saved and everything.

I would love to give your ethical software a try but I can't figure out how to install it. Last time I figured it out, it was crashing every 5 seconds :D

Unfortunately, I don't feel the intent of this thread was to enter the religious debate of Open Source. Supporting a niche market like MegaSquirt is quite different from the mainstream large FOSS efforts that are mostly driven by large companies such as IBM or Oracle. However with that said; As the user base of my applications has grown, so has support. In order to properly support the MegaSquirt community and continue to provide new applications such as the coming Android logger, I have needed to leave my previous day job as well as cover many additional costs. I fully support the free versions of my applications too and require no one to pay. There are thankfully many others that are fine with paying a few bucks for the time I give. I do appreciate it and consider myself lucky as I do enjoy this work. It is work though and I'm not sure I understand why software developers are selfish if they don't work for free or for a large company that has figured out how to indirectly take your money.

So whether it is selfish to spend 50-60 hours a weak using the skills I have gained by working in the fields of automotive, aeronautical, nautical and computers for the past 30 years to provide support to other enthusiast while hoping to make a living; well that can be your own opinion. This is well beyond a hobby and is a real job, a job I enjoy, that makes it no less work. But in the end, my wife and kids do appreciate shelter and food.

Locking this thread as it has very much deviated from the original intent.
I hope to see a similar thread opened that stays focused on the topic.
