Debug board, flat cable: unless we ship a debug board with each phone, the special hardware solutions are a problem because the guy you need to have one won't have one. The flexible cable is like renting the guy a solution, you know it will degrade rapidly / tear easily and he will be lost again. The optimum answer is hiding it inside the phone where it is just accessible when needed by standard interface, ie, mini or micro USB. It doesn't break, can't get lost, everybody has one the same, is always willing to nuke the phone back to factory no matter what outrages were done (short of actually killing the NAND). And it is the factory path itself. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkij8P0ACgkQOjLpvpq7dMpkPgCfSatVoMN9y3Uf3pxUQb2tlYf+ eFsAn3ua4GW7js0w4tkqhDDbocE9FYTV =qJD2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ hardware mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/hardware
