HTC Touch Pro2 (htc-rhodium)

From postmarketOS Wiki
Note The HTC Touch Pro2 has different codenames for different carriers (Barium for AT&T). Rhodium seems to be the original codename for the carrier-neutral version.
Icon WARNING: This device is not recommended for future use with postmarketOS due to its armhf architecture. Alpine Linux (the distribution that postmarketOS extends) pmaports#599 has been considering dropping it.
The processor of the device may support the armv7 architecture. If so, you can modify the device package and change the architecture accordingly.

Mainline

The MSM7200(A) had initial mainline support with DTs written by Stephen Boyd, but these patches are lost as of 2020. The board files in mainline were dropped. Those can't be merged back but can be used as a starting point for mainlining.

Freedreno does not support the Adreno 130
