I'm guessing you had privileged access to the datasheets for those chips and you're not legally allowed to tell them what they misunderstood? I imagine I would feel super weird seeing something being done wrong but not being allowed to tell someone. I mean I understand why, but it'd be frustrating.
- tmzt 10y agoBeen on the other side of that working on the HTC Linux project and chatting with Android developers at Google. I knew they were laughing to themselves as we tried to figure out what were modem differences and what were SoC differences between MSM7x00A and non-A.
- mrlambchop 10y agoWell, I wrote the RTL as well as implemented the SW so I guess I do have propriety information on the topic... In theory, all the code and sequences for the BootROM, 2nd stage, ARM loader and peripheral control functions is available by disassembling the binaries (and extracting some code from the ROM with a mempcy) - it just requires reverse engineering / re-implementing inside and this is part of the fun / why this project is so great. I might suggest they poke at the linux port and u-boot of the BCM2835 from Roku however :)
