i was in chat with him tonight and he was either with somebody at eken.. maybe they want to give the service 2.1 android pack to their devices but maybe want to do it faster or they are at a dead end with kernel or else.. don't really know.. i had to go as it was 3 am and i was a little sleepy
XD lol, yeah he sent me a message about if i had any success and i just told him what i got so far. With source we can get it ported to 2.1 and i should be able to get a public beta out withing 1-2weeks after its released.imayoda;7517 said:thebubzie should have sent you an email or a message.. i had to sleep last night: old continent time is a little nastier than it is in east coast
yep.. distributed developing could impact eken sales... 1.6 is old now.. they have all the interest in being helped by the community. Just look at Smartq..projectgus;7752]Just to correct what looks like a common misunderstanding said:not GPL licensed[/URL], so Eken is not legally obliged to release those parts. I hope they do though, as a gesture of goodwill to the community..![]()
objdump ?!?! what is this, the stone age?projectgus;7752]Just to correct what looks like a common misunderstanding said:Project Gus Notes on porting Android 2.x to Eken M001[/url] (link was on forum before but got lost during the last outage.)I thought this would be part of a GPL release, but I just realised that Android userspace code is not GPL licensed, so Eken is not legally obliged to release those parts. I hope they do though, as a gesture of goodwill to the community..![]()
Here's the hex-rays output of libwmtapi.so; I haven't spent any time cleaning up the structure references and I wouldn't even bother to try to compile it, but might be fun to look at.http://dl.dropbox.com/u/694931/libwmtapi.c[/QUOTE'] Heh. There I was thinking objdump was the state of the art. Given I have no fancy hex-rays license and no Windows to run it on, any chance you feel like putting the same program over libui.so and posting the output for us?
Thebubzie, this is just awesome! Thanks for all your effort in this. I have the netbook version of the WM8505 and I've been trying a lot of different things on it. One thing I noticed was that WinCE booted FAST. Literally start to desktop was under 15 seconds. It was painful as hell after that, but bootup was fast, even on this slow device. I also was able to get Angstrom Linux working with the kernel we've got, and it took forever to get to the desktop. After getting console working, I finally saw that the kernel was doing a lot of stuff we don't need. It looks like the nbd module was compiled in, and there's a good delay just for that!I bet a cleaned-up kernel will make any Linux-based system (including Android) boot quite a bit faster. And given that there's no hibernation support to speak of, the only way to preserve battery life is to be able to start FAST from a powered-down device. Migrating the WM8505 code to a newer kernel would be nice, but just a cleaned up 2.6.29 would be enough for me.thebubzie;8389 said:
