h2. History

15 56 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
Long time ago, we had reports that the "Galaxy SII" had an unsigned bootloader, but we didn't manage to confirm to which exact model it applied to, or if people assumed that the bootloader of the GT-I9100 was unsigned because it uses Xloader which is GPLv2. Samsung also published the source code of various Xloader versions they used on the GT-I9100G for different Android versions. However until now we weren't able to confirm that any device were able to run unsigned bootloaders. Though we verified that at least the bootloader of the I9100G_CHN_CHN is signed.

h2. Rationale
18 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
19 57 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Uses the samsung-ipc protocol
20 17 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* The modem probably uses MIPI, so it should be isolated
21
* 1G of ram => it should be enough for Replicant 6 and 9

35
(08:47:20 PM) sensiblemn: GNUtoo: i just got a report from a postmarketOS developer saying that booting works with that free software x-loader repo for the i9100G that I found. they had to make a one line commit to get it building, but it boots. https://github.com/hpagseddy/i9100g_xloader/commit/0505138dd163959443f09b7178142c0472f60582
36 62 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
(08:48:24 PM) sensiblemn: so early reports suggest that we found a Galaxy S2 that has a free software bootloader. they said it doesn't even need to be signed with signGP.c.
37 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
(10:36:35 PM) hpagseddy[m]: So i have an i9100g and compiled this without any errors in case you guys are interested https://github.com/hpagseddy/i9100g_xloader
38
(10:49:32 PM) freekurt: thanks for jumping in here hpagseddy. we have been trying for quite some time to find a way to liberate the first stage bootloader on Exynos4 SoC based i9100 and i9300 devices. this is great news that the i9100G seems to have a free software first stage bootloader.
39 14 Kurtis Hanna
(10:51:08 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Yep, also there is a thing that i9100g is based on TI OMAP

43 14 Kurtis Hanna
(11:01:27 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Btw Droid 4 has mainline
44 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
(11:02:42 PM) hpagseddy[m]: i9100g uses same display and digitizer with i9100, has a broadcom wifi but sadly a PowerVR GPU
45 64 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
(11:10:48 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Since it uses same display and even same connectors
46
(11:11:06 PM) hpagseddy[m]: I know it because i am using i9100 display on my i9100g :)
47
(11:11:17 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Besides capacitive buttons, all functional
48
(11:11:48 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Even capacitive connector plugged in so if i do some kernel hacks i can get them working too
49
(11:11:50 PM) freekurt: we really appreciate your willingness to do testing if we decide to proceed with trying to mainline this device, which has yet to be determined.
50
(11:14:38 PM) freekurt: it seems as though this device would be quite attractive to other pmOS devs as well, now that the freedom of the bootloader appears to have been determined.
51
(11:15:19 PM) hpagseddy[m]: I hope so, i was the only maintainer over 2 years :)
52
(11:15:27 PM) hpagseddy[m]: Of this device
53
(11:15:37 PM) freekurt: :-) thanks for holding down the fort!
54
(11:15:52 PM) hpagseddy[m]: But if the device gets mainlined, things will definitely change

h3. OMAP4 blaze reference platform related
57 14 Kurtis Hanna
58
(07:17:23 PM) sensiblemn: GNUtoo: ah, it seems like some OMAP devices are GP and others are HS, so the question is whether we can find smartphones and tablets that are GP. Looks like the Blaze Tablet released by TI is GP. https://wiki.tizen.org/Tizen_IVI_Getting_Started_Guide_For_PandaBoard#x-loader_config_files [...]
59
(07:22:26 PM) sensiblemn: also this very odd looking OMAP Blaze cell phone seems to be GP rather than HS. https://www.slashgear.com/texas-instruments-omap-blaze-on-sale-now-1485657/

74
(12:52:49 AM) hpagseddy[m]: <freekurt "yeah, that might be it. https://"> i9300T has the same SP6260 naming as i9100g as this shows
75
(12:53:10 AM) sensiblemn: you're correct
76
(12:54:16 AM) sensiblemn: also, not sure if this is the correct defconfig, but this kernel from samsung suggests it is xmm6260 also https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_samsung_t1/blob/10ca03795f659f6f1fa995e8c300a08c3a133354/arch/arm/configs/android_t1_omap4430_r03_eng_defconfig#L1097

87
(01:01:27 AM) hpagseddy[m]: yes i compiled and ran it on my device with no problem
88
(01:01:59 AM) hpagseddy[m]: also fixed the old build a bit

91 14 Kurtis Hanna
(01:06:35 AM) hpagseddy[m]: well i dont know how to use it so just compiled and flashed with odin
92
(01:06:45 AM) hpagseddy[m]: also one line fix hehe
93
(01:07:33 AM) hpagseddy[m]: it compiled with no problem on 4.6 gcc
94
(01:14:47 AM) sensiblemn: hpagseddy: it is my understanding that, since x-loader is EOL, and since Replicant wants to upstream as much code as we can, we would have to upstream what x-loader is doing into u-boot SPL, which i don't know how long it would take to do. the fact that very similar devices are already in upstream u-boot likely will help though, if we decide to pursue it.
95
(01:16:01 AM) hpagseddy[m]: Since it is open source, it is ok to keep it untill we have the device booted in my opinion
96
(01:16:17 AM) sensiblemn: yes, for sure.
97
(01:17:00 AM) hpagseddy[m]: but well last decision is yours since you guys are the replicant devs :)

h2. Recovery
221
222
The device is not supported by TWRP, but it was supported by cyanogenmod recoveries:
223
224 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
https://web.archive.org/web/20190328070606/http://download.cyanogenmod.org:80/?device=i9100g
225 41 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
226 31 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
That recovery is a zImage. Note that this recovery may not be FSDG compliant, so the first step would be to make a Replicant recovery for this device/
227 43 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
228
h2. CyanogenMod support and stock Android with the version that has a signed bootloader
229
230
According to the "I9100G CyanogenMod installation instructions":https://web.archive.org/web/20161224202727/https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_i9100g , "Users running Android 2.3 on their I9100G MUST first upgrade to stock Android 4.x before installing CyanogenMod, or the device won't boot into the system due to it relying on a newer bootloader. A 4.1 bootloader is recommended."
231 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
232
However this approach has several issues.
233 43 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
234
The update doesn't work anymore. 
235
236
It also requires you to put a SIM card in the device, which results in privacy issues.
237 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
238 43 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
In addition to that, it requires you to give the device a network connection, knowing that the device is running a proprietary Android distribution.
239
240
Once you do that it still fails with "Processing failed".
241
242
Right before the failure you can see "Signup for a Samsung account" on the top of the window with "Terms and conditions".
243
244
So it probably tries to access some page like https://bada.com/contents/deviceterms/china/208.txt which doesn't exist anymore, and it probably does that to show terms and conditions which were probably unacceptable. 
245
246 44 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
They might also have legally prevented you to work on some part of Replicant if you agreed to them, depending on the country you are located in or you intend to travel to.
247
248
This is most probably not an issue with the versions that don't have a signed bootloader as the first stage bootloader could simply be replaced by a free software xloader.

As far is we get from what we've seen on the motherboard itself, here are our guesses about chips and what they do:
282 53 Hpag Seddy
283 55 Hpag Seddy
* 6030B1A5 21ZEDL9G2 G1 --- Power IC based on sellers on the web
284
* TWL6040A2 22AH9SW G2 --- Audio codec made by TI https://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/pdf/862981/TI1/TWL6040A2.html

And on the right side, there is F2076538 written.

322
There is a small battery soldered. That might be interesting if it's able to keep the correct time when the battery is removed. 
323
If not you need to run disable-modem.sh then to turn off the phone and remove the battery, and then put on the battery, set the correct time, and then enable-modem.sh

The links talk about things like LPDDR2. The links are not for the same chip but, for the second part number, the reference is pretty close ( K3PE7E700M-XGC1 )
339
340
The third link has a description with "Mobile DRAM LPDDR2" and "Package: FBGA"

FBGA is "Fine Ball Grid Array based on ball grid array technology. It has thinner contacts and is mainly used in system-on-a-chip designs" "according to wikipedia":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball%20grid%20array
