Android suggestions
by Tim Hamilton 01 Feb '18

01 Feb '18

Evening all, My Nexus 5 has today decided to enter the bootloop of death and nothing I've tried has been able to recover it.Therefore, I'm looking for some suggestions for a replacement. I don't need the latest and greatest, but I do want something that will last a few years as I'm not one to change my phone regularly. Something that receives regular security updates would be great. I'd also like an unlockable bootloader, so I can replace the OS with Linage when it's inevitably abandoned by the manufacturer. Budget is probably sub $400. Any and all suggestions welcome. Cheers, Tim

Morning Philip, Bu 'bootloop of dealth' I mean a continuous bootloop when on charge, when off charge the phone wont boot at all. The bootloop cycle is so short I can't even enter the bootloader. It seems to be a reasonably common problem with that particular phone. Hope yours keeps on chugging away!

Apple store at Fed Square - last year: my conversation with my local MP, Martin Foley (Labor)

Thanks Peter Besides media reports I'm not aware of any formal proposal before government of an actual proposal to turn what is a significant cultural location and civic space that is aged Square into a retail precinct One that would from those media reports transform the architectural location aligned to the river into a seemingly big glass box ( although i stress again this is only from Media reports leaked apparently by a consultant for apple ) would have little architectural or civic value As to the labor office in Docklands - it's architectural significance is nonexistent and as the office is rented other tenants and the owners might be a little upset I will investigate the reports and advise you as to the outcomes Thanks for sharing your views I appreciate the trouble you have gone to Yours sincerely Martin Foley Sent from my iPhone > On 17 Nov. 2016, at 10:53 pm, Peter Ross <Peter.Ross(a)alumni.tu-berlin.de> wrote: > > Dear Martin, > > what happened to your colleagues? > > Apple, a multinational company with a proud history of tax avoidance, talking to the Labor State government about knocking down the building of the Koori National Trust to build a megastore at Fed Square. > > Really? > > Maybe the St.Paul's Cathedral instead?

Cordless VOIP phone
by Brian May 07 Dec '17

07 Dec '17

Hello, Just wondering what a good cordless VOIP solution is? Last time I asked somewhere, the Gigaset was recommended. Think I might have the C610 IIRC (can't see how to double check). However I am now finding that the batteries don't last - possibly due to memory affect. I tried getting more expensive AA batteries, but it hasn't helped. Seems like this might be a common problem, seems like the recommendation is not to leave the phones on the chargers. Which means trying to manage when batteries are going flat and recharge them before they go dead flat. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r27397159-Gigaset-C610H-Batteries~start=30 Looking at Gigaset's website, I am somewhat overwealmed with choices, and there doesn't seem to be any easy way of identifying the differences between the different model numbers. e.g. what does the C, E, S, SL, CL prefix mean. Or if any have better battery solutions then what I already have. http://www.gigaset.com/hq_en/telephones/voip-phones/ So was wondering if anybody could suggest alternate solutions? Thanks -- Brian May <brian(a)linuxpenguins.xyz> https://linuxpenguins.xyz/brian/

They offered me one of the above instead (which is a good deal as they are newer and higher spec than the old phone).
