2011-08-08T16:14:49Z

Halihassan: Added media volume.

NOTE: You have to run with root perms..

Kick off a manual Palm Backup entirely from the command line:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/launch '{"id":"com.palm.app.backup"}'
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.backup/startBackup '{}'
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/running '{}'
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/close '{"processId":"(GET ID NUMBER FROM /RUNNING)"}'
</nowiki></pre>

Connect to any (known) WAP in range (or simply turn on WiFi):
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.wifi/setstate '{"state":"enabled"}'
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.wifi/findnetworks '{""}'
</nowiki></pre>

Disconnect from WiFi:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.wifi/setstate '{"state":"disabled"}'
</nowiki></pre>

Using luna-send to refresh the Launcher panel.
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/rescan {}
</nowiki></pre>

Get a list of all installed apps:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 "palm://com.palm.applicationManager/listLaunchPoints" "{}"
</nowiki></pre>

Using luna-send to launch an application:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/launch {\"id\":\"com.palm.app.browser\"}
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/launch {\"id\":\"com.palm.app.browser\",\"params\":{\"scene\":\"page\",\"target\":\"http://www.google.com\"}}
</nowiki></pre>

The second command shows how to open www.google.com when the browser is launched.

Using luna-send to download a file to /media/internal/downloads/:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.downloadmanager/download {\"target\":\"http://www.google.com/index.html\"}
</nowiki></pre>

Replace www.google.com/index.html with whatever file you want downloaded.

Using luna-send to first import and then set the wallpaper image:

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.systemservice/wallpaper/importWallpaper {"target": "/media/internal/wallpapers/your_file.jpg" }
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.systemservice/setPreferences {"wallpaper": {"wallpaperName": "your_file.jpg", "wallpaperFile": "/media/internal/wallpapers/your_file.jpg"}}
</nowiki></pre>

Replace your_file.jpg with whatever file in the wallpapers folder you want for your next wallpaper.

Using luna-send to control the palm progress animation (The pulsing "palm" logo seen at boot):

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.systemmanager/runProgressAnimation {\"state\":\"start\"}
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.systemmanager/runProgressAnimation {\"state\":\"stop\"}
</nowiki></pre>

TODO: These should probably be plugged into the Tracker app.

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.location/setUseGps {\"useGps\":\"true\"}
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.location/setAutoLocate {\"autoLocate\":\"true\"}
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.location/getCurrentPosition {}
</nowiki></pre>

List all of the processes which are running:
<pre><nowiki>
sudo luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/running {}
** Message: serviceResponse Handling: 2, { "running": [ { "id": "com.palm.launcher", "processid": "1006" }, { "id": "com.palm.systemui", "processid": "1007" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.email", "processid": "1000" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.phone", "processid": "1001" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.contacts", "processid": "1002" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.camera", "processid": "1003" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.messaging", "processid": "1004" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.calendar", "processid": "1005" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.phone", "processid": "1008" }, { "id": "com.palm.app.camera", "processid": "1014" } ] }
</nowiki></pre>
Interesting note:
Seems everything with a processid below 1008 are static. As seen above, open camera app has pid 1014 and startup app is pid 1003

Close a process:

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 "palm://com.palm.applicationManager/close" "{\"processId\":\"1058\"}"
</nowiki></pre>

Activate the vibrator:

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.vibrate/vibrate {\"period\":1,\"duration\":1000\}
</nowiki></pre>
The duration value is in milliseconds and can be adjusted as desired.

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.telephony/dial '{"number":"8001234567"}'
</nowiki></pre>

Hash command RTN: ##RTN# aka ##786# commands using Luna-Send (Becarful Palm calls this Nuking your phone and do not remove battery when using

<pre><nowiki>

<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.telephony/hangupAll {}
</nowiki></pre>

Send a text message - only need to change phone "value" and "messageText"

==Finding luna-send Command==

These commands come from inside given applications. The best way to find luna-send commands is to do a search for the term "method:" in the Applications code. Once you find method: you might see parameters: which is also used by luna-send here is an example.

searched for "method:" in the com.app.palm.AppYouAreTesting

found

"method: test"

luna-send command based on example:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.AppYouAreTesting/test {}
</nowiki></pre>

General luna-send command:
<pre><nowiki>
luna-send -n 1 palm://ApplicationName/MethodValue {ParameterValues}
</nowiki></pre>

==Searching for services with dbus==
<pre>
Run dbus-util capture and search for services/methods/parameters. - xorg

# dbus-util --capture 2>&1 |tee /tmp/dbus.dump

Perform functions on device that you want to trap, such as setting phone to automatic roaming.
Ctrl-c from dbus.

Searches to try...
# grep // /tmp/dbus.dump
# grep com.palm /tmp/dbus.dump
# grep palm:// tmp/dbus.dump
# grep roam /tmp/dbus.dump

This is found in the dump...
com.palm.luna2 com.palm.telephony //roamModeSet Â«string=â{"mode": "homeonly"}

com.palm.telophony is the service
//roamModeSet is the method
"mode":"homeonly" is the parameter

Translate to luna-send...

luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.telephony/roamModeSet '{"mode":"homeonly"}'
</pre>

Important Personal Data Locations

Halihassan: /* Quick Overview */

==Quick Overview==
As anyone who has had their WebOS device replaced at least once knows, the Backup app does not backup all the personal data from your device to the Palm Profile. In fact, anything that is not explicitly a part of the Palm Profile is most likely not backed up.

The Palm Profile Backup/Restore covers the following:
* Account Information for Contacts, Email, Calendar, and Messaging
* Calendar
* Email
* Memos
* Tasks
* List of Installed Applications

The Palm Profile Backup/Restore does not cover the following:
* Messaging History and Text Messages
* Calendar View Options
* Application Settings and Data
* Associated Wifi Access Points
* Background Image
* Synergy Links
* Flash Drive Contents (naturally)

Fortunately I had been using rsnapshot from my home server to regularly backup my Pre when it is connected to Wifi, so I have spent some time trying to recover some of this lost data.

Note: See [[Backing Up via Rsync]] for instructions on setting up a full backup from the Pre to a linux desktop or mac. I did not feel comfortable performing a full rsync restore, so I installed the basics per [[Portal:Accessing Linux]] and incrementally restored files from my previous backup. I did try restoring all of /var, but for some reason much of that did not stick.

Here is a list of files and folders that contain important personal data. Restore all files within a folder at once, and reboot the device for the changes to take effect. Be sure to stop LunaSysMgr when specified.
* [[PalmDatabase.db3 File]] is located at /var/luna/data/dbdata. This file contains all text messages sent and received and all IM chats. It also seems to contain Synergy Link information and Web bookmarks. LunaSysMgr must be stopped before this database is restored, and the device must be rebooted before the data will re-appear.
* Application data is located in /var/palm/data. This entire folder must be restored and the device must be rebooted before the data will re-appear in your favorite applications. This may not apply to Preware applications.
* Wifi system preferences are located in /var/preferences/com.palm.wifi. This folder also contains preferences for other hardware devices.
* IM buddy icons are located in /var/luna/data/im-avatars.
* Facebook and LinkedIn pictures are located at /var/luna/files.
* Sprint Navigation data is located in /var/telenav.
* Pages that were "Add to Launcher" are in /var/luna/launchpoints. Restarting luna is required for these to appear.
* Browser page icons are in /var/luna/data/browser/icons.

Please feel free to add to this page as others find out more. Hopefully Palm will backup more of the above within the Palm Profile, or at least provide the option to do so.
