h1. Good Potential Targets h2. Good Targets A good potential target for Replicant will have: * Unlocked / Engineering bootloader or Root-capable Recovery capable of booting unsigned operating system files * Compatibility Works with standard tools (adb, fastboot, heimdall) fastboot) * GSM / UMTS network capability (CDMA2000 devices require proprietary libraries signed with a particular key in order to use the network) network.) * Components (e.g., Wifi, Bluetooth, Camera, Video, Touchscreen) with freely available documentation * Ability to flash via fastboot. (Currently Replicant does not publish update.zip files.) * Support in CyanogenMod or other AOSP-based Android build * As few binary-only drivers as possible h2. Ideal Targets An ideal potential target for Replicant will have: * All of the good potential target characteristics * Processor Isolation - Modem cannot spy on the memory of the Application processor * Components that do not require loadable firmware * Commonality with devices already supported in Replicant or other Free Software phone project * Zero binary-only drivers * Free-able bootloader
