Hi Android gurus, I am thinking about porting Android to my Samsung F480. For this I would like to do a preliminary investigation, whether it is technically possible or feasible. What I know about the target HW is this: Proc: ARM11, 307Mhz, using ARMv6 instruction set. Chipset: BB: Qualcomm MSM6280, PM6658 RF: Qualcomm RTR6280 Bluetooth: Braodcom BCM2048 Screen: Capacitive Touch Screen, 320x240 Memory: 3Gb ONENAND + 1Gb SDRAM (this is from the service book, I guess these are just the maximum values. I doubt, that the phone would have 4Gb of total RAM, when the usual free memory is just 227MB without an SD Card)
In addition I have the logical block diagram depicting every single module and its modell numbers too, but I hope I won't have to use it. --- What are the Android minimum HW requirements? I know this phone lacks a physical keyboard, but I understand there will be a soft keyboard in Android in the very near future. Are there other things that would effectively mean a port is not possible? What are the risks associated with porting? How would I go around them? And what would be the very next steps in doing the porting? (I already have a complete UBUNTU installation + a flasher tool + cable). -- unsubscribe: android-porting+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
