We need a sampling of chipsets for the graphics team to work with. Ted will follow up with specifics.

Ted -  Please provide a link with specs.  Thanks!

Comment 2

Brad and Ted - I have a similar request for ARMv2 phones in Toronto.  Are these the kind of phones you need?

Bug 764806

Since the phones in the bug are discontinued and hard to find, is there a chance you might be able to share the phones with Ian Barlow's group?

I can't see that bug, can you CC me? I don't think this will be a problem since they're all in Toronto.

Okay, I finally found time to look at this. It seems like the selection of phones there only encompasses two different chipsets:
Samsung GT-i5700 Galaxy Spica,Samsung S3C6410
HTC A6363 Legend,Qualcomm MSM7227
Samsung GT-B7510 Galaxy Pro,Qualcomm MSM7227T
Samsung GT-i5510 Galaxy 551,Qualcomm MSM7227
Samsung GT-S5670 Galaxy Fit,Qualcomm MSM7227
HTC Wildfire A333,Qualcomm MSM7225

All those Qualcomm chipsets are basically the same thing. I'll go back and look at the original list of ARMv6 phones and see if we can find a few more that would give us better chipset coverage.

Okay, after going over a large list of ARMv6 phones, it turns out that there are only about 4 different chipset types in use. Two of them are covered by the list above, but if you could find one of these:
Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro
(Qualcomm MSM8255 chipset)

and any one of these:
Samsung GT-i7500 Galaxy
HTC Hero; G2 Touch; Dopod A6262
HTC Magic; A6161; T-Mobile MyTouch 3G
(Qualcomm MSM7200A chipset)

I think we'd have pretty good coverage of the types of phones that are widely used.

Comment 7

[Ann Ignacio [:anni]]

The order for a Sony Ericsson Xperia and another ARMv6 phone has been placed.

Comment 8

[Ann Ignacio [:anni]]

ETA for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is 7/20.

FedEx Tracking #: 537270755719

Xperia Mini Pro received in toronto, Asset tag # 09273. Let me know who I should deploy this to.

Comment 10

[(not currently active) Ted Mielczarek]

Anyone on the graphics team is fine, Joe Drew or Jeff Muizelaar are the most obvious candidates.

Comment 11

[Jonathan Lin - Not watching NI/offline [:jlin] [[e-mail]]]

#09273 assigned to Jeff

Comment 12

[Ann Ignacio [:anni]]

Regarding the last phone from the remaining list (comment 6), I have checked with 3 vendors and they do not have any of these.

Samsung GT-i7500 Galaxy
HTC Hero; G2 Touch; Dopod A6262
HTC Magic; A6161; T-Mobile MyTouch 3G
(Qualcomm MSM7200A chipset)


It would be helpful if you can provide me a link of a vendor who does have this in stock.

Comment 13

[(not currently active) Ted Mielczarek]

I wouldn't know where to start to find one of these. I simply built this list based on a list that Irina Sandu produce based on usage statistics. If we can't get one, then I guess we can't get one.

I'm going to close out this bug, since there's no other action item.  If you do have another request, please open a new ticket in ServiceNow.
