Depending on your usage of the SD card you could also workaround the issue

With my 8G Sandisk SD card, i can reliably fix the problems i have been
having by turning on the SD clock all the time. To do this type the
command
echo 1 /sys/module/glamo_mci/parameters/sd_idleclk
then do something that will access the SD card before doing a suspend.
This of course won't do

As overall organiser of the first batch I am happy to put my hand up to

another batch of 50 phones if there is enough demand and i resolve a
legal issue that is worrying me.
I have resolved the legal issue to my satisfaction. For those that are

Thanks for that Andy,
There are some numbers here:

Could you tell me what exactly you are measuring, radiated power? and
under what conditions.
How was the noise floor measured.
Thanks Simon
Surely the hardware and software 'fixes' can only be seen as a total fix
if they make the SN (signal to noise ratio) of the GPS the same as if
the SD card is not present.
FWIW and IMAO, this definition of a total fix is impractical almost to
the point of uselessness. There will always

Is the noise from the SD card itself, most likely or from pcb

Here are some ideas.

I would like to know if the SD card noise is desensitising the external

This would point to noise getting into the antenna mux and front end of

Hi,
I think there are a few mistakes in the calculations i have seen for
importing the Freerunners into Australia.
Here is my take on all this.
From Steve at Openmoko's email on shipping costs
Subject:RE: Shipping questions, customer organized distribution

Due to regulatory requirements over wireless frequencies, power and
modulation i can't see it being possible for the low level software that
controls the RF transmitters being Open Source.
Moving the software that modulates the transmitted RF and demodulates
the received RF onto the user space
agree more. I have seen a number of engineering projects fail
due to overcomplexity and inattention to low level design resulting in
unacceptably slow response and too much power consumption.
If anyone thinks this is a good idea i will flesh it out more in the
wiki.

I noticed that Australia is not mentioned on the list of countries you
can ship to direct. Is this correct?
I have done done a quick search on bringing mobile phones that are not
covered by the A-Tick telecommunications regulations into Australia.
The system of regulation in Australia is that a

I have used a similar scheme for some time now and it has been bullet
