h2. Status
4 46 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
5 49 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* The Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) boots (with graphics hacks) under AOSP9, without having to import nonfree libraries. Not much has been validated beside that.
6
* The kernel used is based on Linux 5.0-rc6 and has ~150 Android specific patches on top and some patches for the Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) on top

|_. Task |_. Time estimation |_. Comments |
31
| -Boot a device under AOSP9- | DONE | Only boots with graphics, not much more |
32
| Build it under a "FSDG compliant distribution":https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html like Trisquel8 | 8h | It's difficult to do precise time estimations as it could work out of the box or require one full time month of work depending on how much issues are encountered |
33
| Port the changes from AOSP9 to LineageOS 16 | | |
34
| Find and remove proprietary software in LineageOS 16 | | |
35
| Find and remove privacy issues in LineageOS 16 | | |

40
| Add support for the i9300 modem, touch keys, and flash led | | |
41
| Add internal WiFi and external WiFi dongles support | | |
42
| Make the modem driver and libsamsung-ipc work together | | |
43
| Port libsamsung-ipc and libsamsung-ril to Android 9| | |
