Revision as of 20:13, 10 February 2007
There has been some talk about various Linux based standards and frameworks, and there are a few open software based phones that include applications and frameworks. Here we collect an overall summary of these, so we can figure out what we can leverage from elsewhere, what we need to build from scratch, and any dependencies. Please correct and extend the info on this wiki page.
- Base OS
- Linux sourced from Gumstix, includes cross compiler and has
Java support - Gumstix Software
- GSM device driver
- Tuxphone? Gumstix? Matt knows...
http://opencellphone.org
- EDGE device driver
- basic slow IP over GSM
- Wifi/Bluetooth/LCD/Touchscreen etc. device drivers
- hopefully basic Linux stuff?
- GPS, accelerometer, power management
- More advanced things we may need
to develop
- Application frameworks
Qtopia open source release This does not include all the phone apps provided with the greenphone
- OpenMoko homepage
- doesn't yet have links to code, but they have some info at [ http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/OpenMoko The LinuxToGo site]
- Phone calling application
Basic call management stuff, GUI to dial a number
- Web browser - Qt has Opera support
Not sure how viable Firefox might be on Gumstix
Flash for Linux? Adobe has x86 version only, not sure about others
- Address book application
- Calendar application
- Notes taking
- Mobile oriented email client
- MP3 player
- Gumstix includes some audio player support.
- GPS mapping
- perhaps google maps mobile java version? Not sure how to
feed it GPS coordinates, I think some versions of Gmm do interface to GPS, but Java sandbox makes it hard.
