Project Stardroid [Request To all developers]

Hello guys, i have heard that xda has got a potential of developers.
So i request you all developers that we need your help in porting android on samsung star S5230...You think star is not compatible to run android?? If you think so then you are wrong... Star has passed the minimum requirements of a hardware to run Android and we have seen an android mobile with 208 Mhz ARM9 processor, star has got the same processor too..
Here is the detailed description of Samsung star's hardware:
S3C2410
S3 (System LSI) : Microcontroller
C (Small Classification) : MASK ROM
2 (Core) : 32-bit ARM9
410 : ARM 9 Series (920T)
Features : MMU, NAND Flash Boot Loader, ROM/SRAM/SDRAM Control, STN/TFT LCD Control, Touch Panel Control, MMC/SD Card, USB, 10bit ADC
Speed : 200MHz,266MHz
16/32-bit RISC microprocessor is designed to provide a cost-effective, low-power, small die size and high-performance microcontroller solution for hand held devices and general mobile applications. To reduce total system cost, the S3C2410 also provides the following features: separate 16KB Instruction and 16KB Data Cache, MMU to handle virtual memory management, LCD controller (STN & TFT), NAND Flash Boot loader, System Manager (chip select logic, SDRAM controller), 3-ch UART with handshake, 4-ch DMA, 4-ch Timers with PWM, I/O Ports, RTC, 8- ch 10-bit ADC and touch screen interface, IIC-BUS interface, IIS-BUS interface, USB Host, USB Device, SD Host & Multimedia Card Interface, 2-ch SPI and PLL for clock generation. The S3C2410 is developed using an ARM920T core, 0.18um CMOS standard cells and a memory complier. Its low-power, simple, elegant and fully static design is particularly suitable for cost and power sensitive applications. Also, the S3C2410 adopts a new bus architecture, AMBA (Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture) An outstanding feature of the S3C2410 is its CPU core, a 16/32-bit ARM920T RISC processor designed by Advanced RISC Machines, Ltd. By providing a complete set of common system peripherals, the S3C2410 minimizes overall system costs and eliminates the need to configure additional components.
Display:
The Star has a resistive touch screen with a resolution of 240X400.
Buttons:
It has no directional pad. It has two volume buttons on the left side, along with a slot for the phones USB 2.0 cable. It has a lock button and a camera button on the right side. It has 3 buttons on the 'face' of the phone. A call button, an end call button and a back button.
Okay now the request to developers, please help us in developing StarDroid. (the bootloader, android build, kernel). we have got the original bootloader with us.
Waiting for your reply guys...
Thanks,
Yashuu.
StarDroid.

we are waiting for news

stardroid is also on at http://theteamk.x10.mx

guys a member of stardroid has also joined our team to complete aandrobada525 and both stardroid

[Q] Question Regarding Custom Hardware building for a Hardware project

Hi,
I am not sure how to ask this question yet i scribble a few words. Kindly ask questions if you are not clear. Thanks in advance.
We are doing a custom device for a industrial project. The project involves maintaining stock and functioning of electronic products using the USB API. The USB device(Our Product) and the android phone will be placed and provided to the end-user in an assembly. The end user sees the whole thing as a PDA/Device for use in industry.
I need suggestions for the following:
- The android Phone which we use must contain the following according to the Devs.
Android Version 2.2 or Higher.
Android Gingerbread 2.3 or higher is preferred.
- Touch Screen (Resistive or capacitive)
- Resolution 320 X 480 Pixels (Minimum)
- Screen-size 3 -4 Inches
- GPS or aGPS
- G-Sensor
- WiFi (any b/g/n or all)
- Internal Memory 512MB or higher
- RAM 384 MB or higher
- Processor 500 MHz or higher
- Battery 5 hrs or more usage time
- Partially assembled units with Display, Battery and Board.
- the outer case is not required (Optional)
- Bluetooth, GSM.. etc are necessarily required but if present can be used for any future projects.
Is there any board/ assembly unit or may be a mobile phone without the fancy housing or casing which we can buy for our project?
The BeagleBoard and AllGo boards already have android support but are on the expensive side.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Mods kindly help me to make this questions little more clear to the respected community.
Thank you.

[APP][2.2+] 3d-graphics app Spacedraw

Professional 3D modeling on tablets and smartphones is viable finally!
- Major new version of Spacedraw available, further extensive updates to follow soon and regularly
Spacedraw
is a full-featured 3D-modeling program for all Android tablets and smartphones
is developed from scratch to make use of multi-touch and motion-sensors throughout
introduces novel ways of viewing, drawing & modeling
Features include
CAD construction
advanced polygon & patch modeling
lighting & texture mapping
3d-painting
Since the release in October 2012, Spacedraw has proved suitable for creating professional artwork, see the images below, done 100% with Spacedraw on a 4" smartphone (using beta versions of the new release).
However, Spacedraw was not developed further for over a year, and serious bugs and shortcomings prevented its application in real-world projects. This will change with the release of version 1.1 today, that fixes over 20 serious bugs and adds more than 10 important features, e.g.
orthographic projection
backface culling
freezing objects
unselect tools
repeated extrude
completely redesigned reference CS management
The further development runs at full speed now, next updates soon will bring
fundamental usability improvements
interactive help and tutorials
substantial performance increase
stylus support
a complete revision of the painting tools
a multitude of new functionalities, e.g. advanced rendering capabilities, boolean operations
full-featured animation
Suggestions for improvements are highly welcome and will be taken seriously!
See the website for further information
Spacedraw is available as a free version without ads that can be used with the following limitations:
only scenes with up to 1000 vertices can be saved or exported as .obj files
the undo-history cannot be saved to files
A key can be purchased for currently just $2.99 (until March 8, then $11.99) to remove these limitations

This Android app is damn impressive. Nothing comes close to that on any mobile OS. Sure there are some serious bugs left. But in terms of pure poly modeling (complex splines skeletons and patches are still a bit bugged) it's possible to model anything. I did a lot of complex meshes using spacedraw while travelling. Only big thing missing in my opinion to make it a perfect modeler : unwrap UVW. Controls on texture mapping exist (UVs edit) but are far too hard to manage : you have to do the UVs editing in the 3D view ! instead of moving the planar projection of your wireframe.
But again : this is a perfect example that 1) phones are now powerful enough to handle generous amount of wireframes and complex geometry editing (before Spacedraw most of the devs were doing only "3D viewers"... a bit cheap innit ? 2) 3D modeling with your hands is the present folks.
I hope Spacedraw will improve soon. And I REALLY hope that Discreet or other major players in the business will wake up soon and realise that there IS a market here !
