Wow that's super cool, how did you do that? I have no idea how opengl works but I'd love to learn.

I think u need to put your recv command in a main loop otherwise your program is expecting the answer to come immediately.

Thanks that's good info. That never worked for me, I could never find the service and wasn't sure why win 7 didn't advertise it. As it is, bt_discover() is totally flawed, it only works once then you...

Thanks. It's worse than that. When the computer starts up the serial port is channel 7

After standby and resume it then becomes channel 5

When you try to connect to channel 7 it asks if you...

HELP! Bluesoleil is randomly changing the service channel of my comport 4.

Sometimes it's '00:19:0e:05:ad:59', 7, and then after I standy windows and resume it changes to '00:19:0e:05:ad:59', 5

Great replies. Thanks guys

but both images decompress to the same bitmap size right? so it's a case of whether the phone decompresses the jpg faster than the png. Does jpg quality affect decompression rate as well? Thanks for...

Thanks. I have enough room on c: to put them there, that may be the delay problem. And which is quicker to decompress and display, jpg or png? Thanks

Which is the 'fastest' file type to use with graphics.Image.open ?

Ie, which gives the phone the least cpu work to open? is it bmp, png, jpg? I have images at 640 x 360 for my 5800. Sometimes I...

I've found the only way to set up a bluetooth serial port to which pys60 can connect (eg in the bluetooth console) is with Bluesoleil.

I've never figured it out with just windows. Does anyone know...

what device that can run the latest version of python has the largest screen please? I have the 5800 with res 640x360 but I'd like bigger please. Thanks

I hope I am wrong, and I see there's a new Nokia with python built in already, so that's promising. But I'll wager that noone high up in Nokia cares about pys60, otherwise they would have cleaned it...

Yes, those docs are hidden now, as I think they were for the previous version, 1.9.7

A lot of us complained that we needed a pdf document so we could search it, so now we're back to the old style...

You can certainly do this with the vision library developed by nokia, with python bindings and examples

I'm glad you've achieved what you needed to with pys60, sid. But the future is pretty bleak. You only need to google "pys60" to see how ludicrously fragmented, outdated, and user unfriendly the whole...

OK I got it to work on 5800XM, inspired by previous poster. Here is how:

1. Go here http://www.hiit.fi/files/fi/da/miso/utils/download/ and download...

Really? How do you sign it? How do I get a certificate? I really want to use miso.vibrate in my project but it always says no module named miso.

Can you tell me how I might be able to sign it, or...

Really disappointed you didn't include a call to make the phone vibrate. None of the old tricks (eg MISO) work on my Nokia 5800 XM Touch Screen.

I really want vibrate to provide feedback to users...

The information in the pys60 pdf help file on 'btsocket' module is totally useless. The examples are just copied and pasted from main python, and use INET instead of AF.

This is a joke.

The...

But before I forget, why did e32 sleep not work as I thought it would? The help says: Sleeps for the given interval without blocking the active scheduler.

What does this mean? Why did ao_sleep not...

Thank you, perfect. I have not used the time module before.

For any noobs, you need to say 'import time' to use this module, which is documented here:
...

Sorry I thought I was being clear. Let me try again:

In the first line I want the program to sleep. I don't want it to execute the second and third lines until the sleep period has expired. I...

This is a few lines in the middle of my code:


e32.ao_sleep(2)
img.clear((0,0,0))
canvas.blit(img)

For some reason lines 2 and 3 are being executed right away. I expected them to be executed...

Please please please x 1000

Why can't we have a standalone, downloadable, offline source of help? Why?
