h2. Replicant status

The device has a modem that is not isolated, because of that the Replicant project isn't interested in officially supporting that device anymore, however it still wants to collaborate with other projects or people wanting to add support for it in various other projects.

To make it easier for other projects to support that device, Replicant can still try to make sure that libsamsung-ipc and libsamsung-ril work for that device.

It's also still possible to build Replicant 4.2, which support this device with a recent libsamsung-ipc and libsamsung-ril.

To do that you need to install Trisquel 7, which is not supported anymore by Trisquel.

It's possible to do that from within Parabola with debootstrap and run the resulting rootfs in lxc through libvirt.

There is also work going on to continue the support of this device. For instance there are some repositories being worked on here:

See also the [[Upstream]] wiki page about it.

h2. Freedom and privacy/security issues

Galaxy S (GT-I9000) freedom issues:

* The modem is not isolated as it is connected through shared memory: It probably shares some of the RAM with the modem like with the Nexus S.

* Proprietary hardware

* Proprietary firmwares, some of which are [[GalaxySI9000LoadedFirmwares|firmwares loaded by the system]]

* Proprietary modem system

* Proprietary bootrom
