Kernel Source

[Guest jdtanner]

Hi all,

So I contacted @ConnorFromOrange and emailed ZTE direct regarding the compilation issues surrounding the kernel source for the Blade. However, there hasn't been any response yet, so has anyone else had any luck?

It could take a few days for a reply. I suspect Connor is trying to contact somebody about this for us.

Not heard anything back from anyone I emailed, I think they have gone through the motions of releasing the kernel and that will be that, I doubt they understand why they have to release it or why it should work. Hopefully someone will get us to a stage where we don't need zte anymore by porting froyo without their kernel. On the other hand zte did release an update for the bluebelt so fingers crossed on that one, but source I doubt we will get a working version from them

Maybe contact http://gpl-violations.org/ to see if they can help?

Looks liks the source they released is for the R750 and P726N phones, there is a flag in the Blade .config (CONFIG_MACH_BLADE) which doesn't exist anywhere in the source they provided which is why it won't compile.

It's only a single 'n', hence the missing profile.

I've sent messages to the account concerning the source too, but I naturally didn't expect a response over the weekend.

I think we want the source code for our blade

Lets be clear - Do we want a clean version of the Blade source - Or are we after a Orange branded version - or do we not care?

Clean is best, Orange branded will do if needs must :)

I dont think it matters, any kind of working source code is helpful and anything Froyo (android 2.2) related would be handy :)

We need the source for the linux kernel which was released with the sanfrancisco in the uk. ZTE have released source which they say was for the blade/sanfrancisco but it wasn't the correct source and will not compile with the configuration for that phone.

Just to be clear, there is a phone called the Blade in china which is slightly different to the sanfrancisco in the UK, it's the source which was used for the kernel present in the uk version that we need.

Thanks
