I see these phones as having great potential for distance training, since projectors and speakers can be set up with them. What ACN's service cannot do is broadcast a video call to multiple video phones, their latest model only allows for a conference call with three people. So.....<br /><br />I am interested in how to unlock these phones and make them work with an Asterisk server to be set up in our office. I see elsewhere that some people have been able to do this to receive calls, but not place them.<br /><br />Unfortunately I am a Linux novice, though all of our office systems run Mint and Ubuntu. Any takers on this or anyone who can offer understandable instructions? rpbcentral@gmail.com 503-970-1876.rpbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12157317967609079754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-84902178974210197572012-12-05T08:29:21.758-08:002012-12-05T08:29:21.758-08:00Interesting...

Where is Doom failing? The phone is pretty limited in the options to the SDL initialization code -- it supports 640x480x16bpp and very little else. Try a couple of bits and pieces of SDL sample code to find out what variations work before heading into Doom wholesale. But I would *love* to see Doom running on that phone. Will write up the rest soon.AUTUINhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713793126615904139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-34881538590060308702012-11-17T18:30:14.638-08:002012-11-17T18:30:14.638-08:00I was inspired by this post and purchased an Iris ...I was inspired by this post and purchased an Iris 3000 for similar tinkering. Mine came with bash and strace available, but most utilities were indeed busybox-ed.<br /><br />So far:<br /><br /> * Loaded a copy of Debian Squeeze on a SD card and manually chrooted into it<br /> * Compiled a static version of dropbear to replace the one that came with the phone; there was a bug that prevented modern SSH clients from authenticating successfully<br /><br />The one thing that I can't do for the life of me is access the framebuffer and run SDL apps. I would love to rewrite the UI for the phone and extend the featureset beyond what the stock ACN provides. I wonder what you did to get your Office Space simulator to start; and methinks it has to do with the sltp script called from your SD card. My attempt to simply kill the admin interface and fire up a copy of SDL Doom from the chroot hasn't gotten me anywhere.<br /><br />Well, I'll be patient for the guide like everyone else in the thread. :D<br /><br />Thanks for documenting what you have so far!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-76703605067623474592012-11-06T11:51:09.945-08:002012-11-06T11:51:09.945-08:00Definitely, but not in the next couple of weeks.

The Ciscos are pretty solid phones, but run a proprietary OS and not much fun to hack around with. The Nortel is a pretty cheesy phone as well -- buggy features, "meh" interface, VGA camera, etc. As soon as I saw your entry on Hackaday, my mind immediately went to the Nortel 1535 on my desk that I've been playing with lately. I didn't get a chance to open it up yet today, but did get a few minutes to telnet in and look at the /dev devices. Very different layout from yours, but your project here gave me good inspiration to continue to bend this phone to my will. :) Keep having fun with cheap electronics!Jeremy Brainardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16653486950085159507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-77667938314041598952012-11-02T09:19:43.653-07:002012-11-02T09:19:43.653-07:00I LOVE the idea of using the phone itself as an in...I LOVE the idea of using the phone itself as an interface.

The ACN device is made by UMEC in violation of the GPL; Cisco has been burned by GPL violations in the past and is unlikely to play that game again so soon. I'd also like to hope they make better hardware; this phone is just a little bit cheesy. In summary, I kind of wish I had your phones instead :)AUTUINhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713793126615904139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-8240860081335335262012-11-01T23:23:49.914-07:002012-11-01T23:23:49.914-07:00Bought mine from the thrift for $7.50 Plus Tax :)....Bought mine from the thrift for $7.50 Plus Tax :).<br />Have not dug into it nearly as far as you have.<br />Thanks for the Links!Dennis Ray Nestor Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03696406804260551627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534060879324399856.post-45911647091993481752012-11-01T19:45:05.068-07:002012-11-01T19:45:05.068-07:00How very cool.

I recently picked up a few Nortel 1535s for our firm partners and one for myself to use in lieu of our standard issue Cisco 7940 SIP phones at the office, and they seem very similar to your phone. Linux, busybox, SD card, telnet access, but I have yet to crack mine open to see what chips lie inside. I wonder if there's any relation to your phone. Will certainly do some investigating tomorrow afternoon if I don't get too busy. I have successfully transplanted some pre-built armv4l binaries to it (busybox, bash,) and intend to do some repurposing soon. Keep us posted on your progress.
