However I probably did some mistakes trying to install my Replicant build on it, and the installation probably fails because it cannot mount system. Do you know if there is some documentation on how LVM is used on that device, and how to recover when the partitions content are messed up?

If we do we'll probably use something like mdev from busybox instead as it's probably more easy to integrate. > Should I wait for the modem separation changes to stabilize?

I'm also involved in upstreaming patches in several other projects, and I'll get more time when this will be done. For libsamsung-ipc I tend to do the work in burst as the code to change is very similar, so it gains a lot of time doing similar things one after the other, but at some point I have to stop and wait for the next burst because the code is too similar and it becomes too error prone, hence the importance of code review too. I've found a way to catch more mistakes but I didn't find a way to apply it to C code yet: using a rendering that is different from what you work on (like a pdf rendering when you work on the TeX version) helps spotting more issues as my brain doesn't tend to skip the things it skips when staring at similar code for hours. I also do understand way more the point of good code style as it helps here too. Denis.
