Attached is the patch for change 20506, to be applied in the build
project. Its original parent was commit
27016763c7c0e568fb8eb26ab3d30282f027a72d. This probably goes with
other changes, but I don't know which one. If you have any further
information in that domain (at least the change numbers, possibly the
project in which each change was made), I can manually recover them
one by one.

The changes 20506-20509 were all part of it. I know 20507 was for
frameworks/base and I have part of the comment history for it exported
from my gmail. Can be downloaded as a pdf below.

History: http://www.mediafire.com/?590id32tc9gca1r

ST-Ericsson documentation:
https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0Bx0OR2cNmeUrOWJlZjE3NDUtMjUwMi00ZGY5LTgwYzctMDg5ZWE5OWQwYWI0&hl=en&authkey=CNHnytQO

Change 21829 also seems to be part of it and is for the project
platform/development.

Change 23522 was supposedly a hardware plugin submitted by Marco
Sinigaglia (according to ST-Ericsson) for the changes listed above.

The information above is what a search in my Gmail provided. Some more
information might be had in the issue-tracker (start reading below
post 434).
