For sure. When you guys get ready for the first build, I'll find a way
to help. I'm open to donating some parts and time. This is a great
project!
Wonderful, thanks a lot ! Access to parts is probably the single
most important condition for the success of this project.

There are already a number of projects that do exactly this, such

Great news indeed!
Are there plans to change uSD placeholder?
Every single person I showed my phone to said that it's the most idiotic
(that one of the most calm of used words :) design he\she ever saw.
Personally I completely agree with that - making uSD unaccessible
without disassembling half

either you do not get them at all or you have to buy large quantaties of

Oh yes. You wouldn't believe just how often we had that sort of thing
happen to Openmoko. I've learned to treat sourcing with

No - changing uSD holder isn't part of the GTA02-core plans.
In GTA02-core the intention is that the uSD card contains the full OS
image including kernel. The NAND will only contain QI, and the
expectation is that QI won't need to be

One thought is that future phones should include two uSD cards - one
'internal' for OS/kernel etc. and one that is 'removable' for data

If you want any FPGA or CPLD work doing, I will do it.
Been doing this kind of stuff since fuse blown devices with Palasm. (20
years!)
Any glue logic, hardware acceleration, bus interfaces etc.
If anyone has ideas about what we could put in a low powered CPLD/FPGA,
please come forward, will

Q3) What is role of OpenMoko organization now? Sell remaining GTA02s?
As far as I know, Openmoko is selling GTA02s and, besides that,
concentrating on the project B. Openmoko is friendly towards the

For me, I think you've hit the nail on the head. We're trying something
new with gta02-core, and by working on the small changes we've proposed
we can focus on the tools that we use, the organisation of individual
contributors and the stages we need to go through to get functional
hardware.

The wiki says:
# Remove one accelerometer and connect both interrupts of the remaining one
Is connecting both interrupts of the remaining one an expected
benefit? Do both current accelerometers only have one interrupt
connected? What does that even mean?

Many of the parts in the GTA02 cannot be reasonably placed by hand.
There are almost a dozen (or more?) BGA chips which are extremely hard
to handle (you do not see if the balls match the pads). Then there are

No, and Openmoko wasn't actually asked for such a commitment, as
it would not fit with the current focus of Openmoko. If Openmoko

Hi everybody,

Is the second accelerometer genuinely useful? IIRC due to the small distance
