			== Root access via SSH ==
			If you need to access root via ssh, there are two choices on the most recent builds. First is to use <code>sudo</code> after having logged in as the <code>ceres</code> user. The other option is to copy ssh keys as described in [[OpenEmbedded#A_word_about_root_access]]

Created page with "Hi! I rejected the edit to add asteroid-local-music but wanted to let you know why. The app looks interesting and useful, but it's not added to meta-asteroid-community yet. Also, there should probably be a way to have both the existing music app and the local one coexisting on the same watch."

Hi! I rejected the edit to add asteroid-local-music but wanted to let you know why. The app looks interesting and useful, but it's not added to meta-asteroid-community yet. Also, there should probably be a way to have both the existing music app and the local one coexisting on the same watch.

			=== A2DP audio playback ===

			Tested on the Huawei Watch 2 (`sawfish`) with a Bose NC 700 headset.

			AsteroidOS configures BlueZ for BLE-only operation by default. To use ordinary
			Bluetooth audio headsets, enable both BLE and BR/EDR:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			sudo cp -a /etc/bluetooth/main.conf /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.before-a2dp
			sudo sed -i \
			's/^[[:space:]]ControllerMode[[:space:]]=[[:space:]]./ControllerMode = dual/' \
			/etc/bluetooth/main.conf
			sudo systemctl restart bluetooth.service
			</syntaxhighlight>

			Pair, trust and connect the headset using `bluetoothctl`. A successful A2DP
			connection lists `Audio Sink` in `bluetoothctl info HEADSET_ADDRESS`, and
			PulseAudio creates a sink named like
			`bluez_sink.HEADSET_ADDRESS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.a2dp_sink`.

			On current images, `module-stream-restore-nemo` can restore the `x-maemo`
			media role at `-20000` volume (silence). Fix its fallback rule:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			sudo cp -a /etc/pulse/x-maemo-stream-restore.table \
			/etc/pulse/x-maemo-stream-restore.table.before-a2dp
			sudo sed -i \
			's/^sink-input-by-media-role:x-maemo[[:space:]]\+-20000$/sink-input-by-media-role:x-maemo 0/' \
			/etc/pulse/x-maemo-stream-restore.table
			</syntaxhighlight>

			Reload the module as user `ceres`:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			pactl list short modules \| grep stream-restore-nemo
			pactl unload-module MODULE_ID
			pactl load-module module-stream-restore-nemo \
			restore_device=no restore_volume=yes restore_muted=no \
			route_table=/etc/pulse/x-maemo-route.table \
			fallback_table=/etc/pulse/x-maemo-stream-restore.table use_voice=false
			</syntaxhighlight>

			A previously stored stream setting can still set a new playback stream to 0%.
			While playback is active, inspect and fix it:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			pactl list sink-inputs
			pactl set-sink-input-mute SINK_INPUT_ID 0
			pactl set-sink-input-volume SINK_INPUT_ID 100%
			</syntaxhighlight>

			Set the headset as the default output:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			pactl set-default-sink bluez_sink.HEADSET_ADDRESS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.a2dp_sink
			pactl set-sink-mute bluez_sink.HEADSET_ADDRESS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.a2dp_sink 0
			pactl set-sink-volume bluez_sink.HEADSET_ADDRESS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.a2dp_sink 100%
			</syntaxhighlight>

			Test playback with a tone:

			<syntaxhighlight lang="sh">
			gst-launch-1.0 -q \
			audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=880 num-buffers=430 ! \
			audioconvert ! audioresample ! \
			pulsesink device=bluez_sink.HEADSET_ADDRESS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.a2dp_sink
			</syntaxhighlight>

document 2.2 changes regarding root login and sudo

@@ Line 1: / Line 1: @@
 Configuring an IP connection on your watch has to be done manually until a GUI settings option is available. On watches that support WLAN, you can enable Wi-Fi and configure the connection using <code>connmanctl</code> like described below. Forwarding IP requests to a connected PC via USB is another option, explained in the second paragraph.

 Connect to your watch using <code>ssh root@192.168.2.15</code> or <code>adb shell</code>.
