Notes
Device is still heavy work in the progress. The following is known not to work:
- Brightness control (screen is always max brightness)
- Keyboard backlight
- Modem interrupts, it is visible on USB but other communication with it doesn't work
- pstore (needs figuring out what the reserved memory is on Android)
- See if we can use 512MB ram instead of 509MB (see dts)
Additionally, the device suffers from random hangs while in use, causing resets. When pstore works, we can hopefully figure this out.
