Dissapointment

I wanted to play Turrican 2 the other day so I fired up an Amiga emulator, but playing it via the keyboard really wasn’t cutting it, so I broke out a USB game pad I had floating around the place.  That also didn’t feel quite right 🙁  What I needed was an old Atari style […]

Objective-C to Java and back again via JNI and Unix pipes

I’ve been working on a piece of software for some time now that is almost ready for a public release.  For part of it I needed to connect to various databases, some of which are only accessible via JDBC.  My problem is that my app is written in Objective-C.  For the first version of my […]

My boy has died

For those who have been following my blog for a while will know that my son has (had) an incurable disease.  On Wednesday he finally succumbed.

More Yealink VP-2009 stuff

I have to admit is a little disappointed with the phone when I got it.  I updated the firmware as far as it would allow me, but the more recent versions of the software would not install 🙁  After a bit of googling I found that there was supposedly a procedure for updating the old […]

Yealink VOIP phone back doors

Yesterday I took delivery of a Yealink VP-2009 VIOP phone.  I was hoping it would be a nicer phone than it actually turned out to be.  I have a Yealink T38G and was really happy with it.  Unfortunately a lot of the features I like in the T38G are not present in the VP-2009. Ah […]

The replacement PCBs have arrived and they look good :)

I now have the replacement PCBs from circuits.io and they look great.  They also included some free PCBs, so hopefully they will work.  🙂 I’ll post some pics when I have some

It’s alive!

I spent a little time on my lunch break putting in the last few wires and the board has come up 🙂 The flash from my phone has drowned out the LEDs on the board, but they were blinking as they should. Since I didn’t have another voltage regulator handy I have used the voltage […]

Some more pictures of the failed boards

I took a few more pictures of the failed boards and sent them to the fantastic people at circuits.io.  They have very generously offered to send me new ones at no charge 🙂  Hopefully these new boards will work out. I also had a quick go at getting one of the boards working.  After soldering lots […]

My PCBs have arrived

Unfortunately they don’t appear to have worked out as well as I was hoping. On the top side many of the tracks are incomplete, while the bottom side has no tracks whatsoever 🙁   The boards look really nice though.  I’m going to have a go at making one of them work soon as I […]
