The OpenEZX project tries to gather information about the Linux-based
Motorola EZX phone platform (mainly the A780, E680 and E680i phones).
It further tries to provide a 100% free software stack for those phones,
especially a way to avoid any proprietary filesystem and/or device drivers. It
also aims to provide a current (2.6.x) kernel with all required hardware
support for the EZX phones.
The project is currently in a very early stage, so none of the abovementioned
goals have yet been achieved. Progress is going on quickly, stay tuned.
The OpenEZX project is not affiliated in any way with Motorola.

New Developer to work on ROKR E6 and Motorola Q CDMA
As we are a small team with a core team of only three people we sometimes suffer
from the fact that we only have a limited amount of time we can offer our hobby
project.
Getting more people involved is often a good way to spread the load. So we are
happy to announce that two new developer have joined the project.
GM Zhuo is working on his ROKR E6 for a long time already. He is now working on
getting the E6 in line with the support we have on the other phones and also
write new driver like the pcap-rtc.
Timothy Meade is working on the Motorola Q. This is the first non-EZX device we
have support for. Normally delivered with Windows Mobile it is pretty similar
from the hardware platform, especially using the PCAP2 chip.
Welcome on board guys.
Thanks to the work of Bart Visscher and Antonio Ospite we now have a working setup
for the A910 camera. The MT9M111 CMOS sensor driver was already in mainline and
just needed a small fix to work correctly for us. Here is a picture to
show the raw image quality.
Some versions of the A780 are also using the same CMOS sensor. Sadly we only get
images with wrong colors out of it. Either the sensor driver still has a bug or
we need a special setup for the A780 for it. Stay tuned, we will find it out.
