2.3.3 drivers for crespo (i.e. Nexus S).

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

The following 2.3.3 drivers are now available for crespo builds from AOSP:

Wifi/Bluetooth and GPS drivers from Broadcom:
http://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/broadcom-crespo-gri40-5f3d0745.tgz
Graphics drivers from Imagination Technologies:
http://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/imgtec-crespo-gri40-ff7dd812.tgz
NFC drivers from NXP:
http://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/nxp-crespo-gri40-1a807507.tgz
GSM drivers from Samsung:
http://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/samsung-crespo-gri40-c33dae03.tgz

Those are meant to be used on top of the android-2.3.3_r1 source
release, which is the exact Android platform that's been used in the
GRI40 consumer release.

Thanks to the 4 companies mentioned above for making drivers available
to the Android Open-Source ecosystem under a license that should cover
a majority of cases.

Major thanks to the Nexus S Product Manager at Google who did all the
hard work behind the scenes so that those files could be distributed.

Hi JBQ,

How do I go about incorporating this into my crespo build? When I extract and run the files, I get a vendor folder with each vendors' drivers in the folder. Where do I put these to get the exact GRI40 Android image when I make the build?

Regards,

My mistake, I still need to write the precise documentation.

Each tgz contains a shell script that you run from the root of the
source tree. This creates the relevant parts of the vendor tree.

Once they're all extracted, you need to do a clean build
(unfortunately), and the full_crespo-userdebug config will
automagically use those files.

You can't quite get the exact GRI40 retail system image, for a number
of reasons (still missing a driver or two, no access to Google's apps,
the private keys for the signatures are private). You can get to a
build of the Android platform from the exact same source code that we
used for retail builds, which will be functionally equivalent.

I hope that helps.

It did. I compiled it, and it works pretty well so far :-)

Thank you!

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Those files are now linked from
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/drivers.html so that they're
easier to find.

In turn, that new page will eventually be linked from
source.android.com so that it is itself easier to find.

Enjoy,
JBQ

I hear that the page hasn't replicated to all the mirrors yet, sorry
about that, I was so happy that I wanted to share the news immediately
after it was visible from the US.

For the curious who are still getting a 404, the page in question
contains links to the drivers mentioned in my original message in this
thread, as well as the graphics driver for 2.3.1 that was discussed
here a few months ago.

Will these drivers work in android 2.3.2

I have compiled android 2.3.2 for Nexus S , Bluetooth, camera,

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

They probably only work on 2.3.3.

For 2.3.2, the graphics driver released for 2.3.1 will work, but other
drivers aren't available.
