13 | h2. Replicant status |
||
14 | |||
15 | 10 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | While that device is Very similar to the [[GalaxyNote2N7100|Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)]], some peripherals are wired differently on the two boards, and the two boards have different cellular modems. |
16 | 2 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
17 | h3. Replicant 6.0 |
||
18 | |||
19 | To get partially supported by Replicant 6.0 we can either: |
||
20 | 10 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * validate that the device boots with the GT-N7100 images. The downside is that the images would have support for libsamsung-ipc that could probably be disabled after boot, but it would make the installation instructions more complicated than they should be. |
21 | 2 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * Building images for it without libsamsung-ipc. That would be better. Ideally we could also look if the ofono ril has some support for its modem and the one for the Galaxy SIII 4G (I9305). |
22 | |||
23 | h3. For Replicant 9 |
||
24 | |||
25 | 10 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | As it uses the same dts as the GT-N7100, it might just be possible to make an image without modem support for it, however the GT-N7100 also need to be added in Replicant 9, which requires to port (and upstream!) some display drivers. |
