HTC Nexus One (htc-passion)

From postmarketOS
(Redirected from HTC Nexus one (htc-passion))


Note This device is still running on armhf, although the processor supports armv7. If you own it, change it and test it that way.


Icon WARNING: This device is not recommended for future use with postmarketOS due to its armhf architecture. Alpine Linux (the distribution that postmarketOS extends) has been considering dropping it.
In some cases, the processor of the device may support the armv7 architecture. If so, you can modify the device package and change the architecture accordingly.

What does not work

How to enter flash mode

While powering on, hold trackball plus volume-up.

Port Status

Code is at https://github.com/scintill/pmbootstrap/tree/device/htc-passion .

Code should be cleaned up. Notably, I backported gcc 4 because the kernel compiled with gcc 6 doesn't boot. It's a bit Frankensteinish and not ideal, so it would be good to figure out how to get it working with gcc 6.
