[PRJ] Updating Telechips kernel to 2.6.35

[billquinn1]

Have fun and remember to take a Sonic M&M Blast every now and then for strength. Your brain works better when the brain freeze subsides

Just a quick progress report: I've managed to get up to the drivers/mmc directory with the edits. Still not enough to attempt a build yet..

Thank you for working on updating the Kyros. I'm actually pretty happy with the tablet on 2.1 I only wish I could get a updated and overclockable kernel.

Danny, can you provide a link to the Froyo Cyanogenmod that you were talking about with specifics for the Kyros. I don't mind the brick, we have 2 zt-180 that we use, I bought this one to learn and use the android OS, after being in the IOS jailbreak community for years.
Thx!

Thanks already loving this because it can see adhoc, maybe I can finally use the wifi tether on my rooted Huawei and loose my mifi. Any issues that you have encountered with this? Do you have access to regular market on this build?

 

[sndplace]

on the 2.2 mod? I haven't installed it yet. I have been just reading around on info. I just rooted and added the market. I'm going to wait abit to see if l_n can come up with something to test it. If its simple enough for me . I'm not to great with this but am looking forward to learning and trying it out.

an interesting thing i've found while poking around in the SD/MMC drivers... the Telechips 92xx/89xx chipsets support SDIO... which means you should be able to add SDIO gps and/or 3g (if they make such an SDIO card....)

EDIT: after digging around on google, i've only found one compeany that has made microSDIO devices, and there's not much info about them (the products on the company's website (Spectec)). if anyone has any more info, it would be nice to know if these types of devices are possible to connect to the telechips boards.

Ok take your time. But I dont think thy or going to release 2.2. I dont think thy think it well run on the tablet.

On their website they are already showing 2.3 tablets for the future. I might wait for one of those.

Did you see the price of the GPS thingy on the Pacific geek site! 280 for a refurb!

I'm looking to port gingerbread 2.3 to my m701 4gb HY, and I would love to help port the kernel too, any chance I could get your files, or I can start working from the bottom folder up appling diffs?

 

[l_n]

To avoid duplicate work, I'm not going to put anything up for d/l until I get through the diff. As soon as that's done, I'll post a source tarball, untested (i.e. before I try to build it myself).

 

[shacklesmcgee]

how much longer do you guesstimate for the tarball?

 

[l_n]

Don't know. I'm at the usb drivers directory. Hopefully there's not much changed after the drivers...

 

[shacklesmcgee]

How's it going? I've managed to get clockwork recovery working on the HY m701, but not the 2.2 release by asure and venomous. I'm starting to think i might need to build a new kernel for the HY memory.
