Hi Mychaela, You are unfortunately correct, that trace is on L6. Looking at L7 and bottom layers, there are many traces and I can't see any easy way that trace could be cut without a PhD in PCB microsurgery. :/

Thanks for the explanation. For the curious: https://imgur.com/a/3Jife If you look at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Who_is_Who apparently Tim Lee was the hardware manager, Allen may have been Allen Chang (hw engineer), Shawn was most likely Shawn Lin (RF Engineer), Jean and Shanny I'm not sure. --DS _______________________________________________ Community mailing list Community@freecalypso.org https://www.freecalypso.org/mailman/listinfo/community
