OK, I need to think what to do next.... I imagine there are HTC-specific hacks in their source trees to support their specific platforms, so switching to an entirely codeaurora tree might be tricky. Perhaps backporting the relevant pieces from the codeaurora tree might be the way to go forward, but I'll have to have a look at code quality/applicability etc. -- unsubscribe: android-kernel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel
