Can someone who has an EZX phone with working BP and who can send it AT
commands send AT+CLAC to the BP and post the results? (AT+CLAC is a
standard GSM command for listing all the AT commands that the device supports)
My question was: does the BP act as a "simple file vault" or does it
process
something?
As far as I know all SMS access on the BP is done via GSM standard SMS AT
commands. (I think there might be motorola specific commands too but I
don't know if the BP uses them or not, either way all access t
I just bought a new ROKR Z6 and would like to know if there is anything I
can do with it that would help OpenEZX (or should that be OpenMAGX for the
new platform :) with this phone.
Note though that it is my main phone and I do not want to do anything that
would ruin it as a usable phone.

Is there anyone here who knows how to program USB stuff (e.g. libusb) and

and stuff

Can anyone help me obtain a toolchain for motomagx/z6?
I have tried the one at http://www.inr.ac.ru/z6/ but I cant get it working

I am looking for some help writing a kernel module (and userspace app to
talk to it if need be) that I can then use on the z6 that can read a

My vote also goes to the MOTOMAGX phones. They are the only linux phones
still being made by moto. The kernel is a 2.6.x kernel and if a method can
be found to overcome the signature checks, it should be fairly simple to
migrate up to a newer kernel. The tricky part will again be the various

I have the possibility to test stuff on a V8. Not my device, but
possible. Also Wyrm may can test on a Z6 from time to time.

With the recent news of the RSA removal for MOTOMAGX phones (still a little

Looking at my own Z6, the things I think we will need to write specially
for magx phone:

calls, send GPRS data etc)

BTW, if a way is made that I can boot from both the stock moto firmware and
from whatever new kernel and firmware people are working on, I will be
happy to test stuff out on my Z6 (and even contribute code where possible)
As long as I can do all this from my Windows PC (as my linux box is

Is there a way to read raw data from the flash (such as the baseband

Would I need to somehow write a kernel module to do it (and then use the

If i understood correctly your question,
There is actually some ways to do so, some (if not all) are documented on

that now can read and write to/from the flash chip.

Would it be possible to build a cross compiler that could run on windows
