| 1 You are looking at the source tree for FreeCalypso Citrine, which is one of the | |
| 2 several Calypso GSM firmware offerings developed under the FreeCalypso umbrella. | |
| 3 The key distinguishing features of FC Citrine are: | |
| 4 | |
| 5 * The firmware is built from full source, no blobs; | |
| 6 * The compiler used to build the fw is gcc (free software) instead of TI's | |
| 7 proprietary compiler; | |
| 8 * The way in which the firmware is put together is "from the bottom up". | |
| 9 | |
| 10 Our Citrine firmware can be built for the following targets: | |
| 11 | |
| 12 Mot C11x/12x | |
| 13 Mot C139/140 | |
| 14 Mot C155/156 | |
| 15 Openmoko GTA01/02 | |
| 16 Pirelli DP-L10 | |
| 17 | |
| 18 However, only minimal functionality is implemented so far: whichever target | |
| 19 device you are using, it can only function as an AT-command-controlled voice+SMS | |
| 20 pseudo-modem; because there is no UI code integrated yet, the LCD stays dark | |
| 21 and the buttons do nothing on those target devices that have such hardware. | |
| 22 No CSD, fax or GPRS support has been integrated yet either, and in general this | |
| 23 Citrine firmware has not yet reached the level of functionality and stability | |
| 24 offered by its blob-laden, Windows-built competitors. It is a work in progress. | |
| 25 | |
| 26 Please refer to the write-ups in the doc directory for instructions on how to | |
| 27 compile and play with this firmware. |
