Just wanted to ask if anyone want to help to run alternative is on playbook. This guy (quackquack147) can port some cool stuff like alternative os and other things to our pb.

Due to a lot of workload he need someone to help him out.

Contact him here.

Hi Dr_acula,
I believe you posted it already, as did quackquack147.
Flooding is not a good way to promote

Superfly_FR,
he is not promoting, he is calling for help. multi tasking. since the time and effort from me is not sufficient. if others join in then things will go much faster and also much efficiently.
since RIM created playbook and left us on the street like b@$**** child we need to do pull our socks and get our ego sorted (if any) and get into act.
this is a lovely device. and its way cheaper even a brand new compared to other devices.
reason? "the friggin OS" the person selling me his playbook is fedup with this playbook.
we use multicore CPU these days why? things go fast and smooth, like that, what i can do in 2-3 months if more plunge in then it can be done faster. workload is shared between the users.
i hope i did put my thoughts properly and its upto you to understand.
thanks

I expected more of a technical answer from someone looking forward to porting other OSs to playbook. Something along the lines of parallelism (also how it can actually be worse/slower than serial workload in some cases) and the power savings due to the ability of power gating the non-primary cores entirely.

Paul. I just said that multiple threads wasn?t useful.

your hopes will shine only if we know something of whats going on. why inventing an exploit wont help on long run? because "RIM WILL FIX THE BLOODY HOLE!" pissed @ rims policy and not @ rim or their device. i have two device and i am buying one more. now coming to your point technical answer. Ti has released 5554 pages of jargon/bible/literature/thesis etc etc et al
if you are suicidal then please read it and be my guest. i will only read the security section of the document. else things are there in code.
now some part is under NDA viz trust core. we got absolutely no friggin info. its given to OEM/ODM only. and unless you present TI with a strong case and a business interest of more than 50,000 plus or more chips on a regular basis you are out of luck. which is why you in as much dark as i am or others are unless they are OEM/ODM. arm holding corp wont release much info either. bastids!
if i understand things correctly then TI's trustcore is like intel's AES-NI. if you have used any intel 1 st gen or 2nd gen or 3 rd gen i5 and above cpu you will have it. i guess this is the same. TI releases 2 modes of CPU GP and HS. GP stands for general purpose and HS stands for high security. GP is mostly like panda board and beagleboard and et al and a few TI boards plus blah blah board. IIRC. and HS is highly specialised ones and a different beast altogether.
we got almost no documentation as its under highly signed NDA docs. so i will pull the lines from core boot "we know the EC and working in general, but we dont know how specific they are. we dont have the docs nor any support from vendor. else binary only. which leaves us to *we dont know because we dont know*" got it? thats the problem mike. follow the thread by dr_akula and you will have shyte loads of info. i have decided to release info under gfdl (gnu free doc lic) to save my *** from a legal process. gnu will take care of it. no sensetive info will be disclosed and we aint going after anything sensetive. we are using the available tools by TI and OE (open embedded) and RIM's SDK/NDK and Simulators.
rather than asking why not participate and also provide us information, we are looking forward to more support and co-op.
if i understand parallelism properly, which i dont understand properly care to explain the question so i understand correctly. my guess is are you trying to bruteforce? if its so then?
STOP! HOLD! this is a massive distributed computing job. your CPU will be wasting precious cpu cycles. and the key bit is 3072 i guess the boot loader is 4096 bit keys. insane? i dont think so. i may be wrong. press the eject button this is not des cracking.
power saving? well the cores can be clocked to 1.2 ghz max w/o unit getting heated up (officially). you can over clock it even more then be prepared to touch insane high temperature on your BB playbook. we have dont this overclocking on n900 and we reached pretty high temp prettry soon. and also pretty soon we were drained of battery power.
so if omap3430 can be clocked to 1.6 ghz which is 600 mhz to 800 mhz (official max speed is 800 mhz) then this is 1.2 ghz official do the math yourself as whats the max clock speed. and power goes equally to all cores this is not like intel's phq where you can control power of different voltage to different cores. i am not sure about phq either havent tried the the patch on kernel. and lastly i dont think you can get a great deal by over clocking you are slowly killing the cpu. i would never do it. and i will try something like on-demand cpu frequency scaling ideal than everytime using an over clocked cpu.
hope i did answer your questions.
thanks

relax and chill. mate i am a thick skin guy. extra thickness. :-D so you didnt offend me anyway. and dont worry i wont get offended either. these eenie weenie talks and misunderstanding if for sure bound to happen. dont worry and i can assure you one thing. you will never see me flaming you. thats my word on a signed bonafide paper. ;-) which you can count on and keep it in a high security safe. :-D
sorry mate i never misjudged you. its that this is a community of frustrated BB playbook user. if we go so thin skin then RIM's BB OS wins and we loose.
for me this is an unacceptable terms and conditions. we cant let RIM's BB OS frustrate us anymore. i dont know about others. But i want to break free. free from the clutches of the fsck's sake OS which is ugly in working and nasty, just asthetics are nice, else it sucks totally.
my war is against OS and neither RIM. so relax and chill and here have your lemonade.
;-)

Hey I'm all for Qracking the Playbook for an alternate OS. Sure sounds like a mega challenge. I've seen the TED talk with those guys in the Cell shops in India , their amazing . Assuming you could get Android on it , that would be another year and 50devs to get most of the bugs out. Dosn't seem worth it if Blackberry won't unlock it. Besides there's enough cheep android gizmos out . Just another OS with a backdoor , and tracking . FirefoxOS that might be interesting or Ubuntu . But on a Playbook ? unlikely. Good luck with it. I 'd like to see OPENVPN and updated news360 and pulse news and a few more apps. But do those dev's care about the Playbook .? Till then it's got good enough features to use as is , mainly for Computer training courses in my case.

my intention is not android. i want to port coreboot. coreboot
50 dev? we hardly got 2-3 except me. others are hoping for BB10 which if my guess is OK will be another sh1t.
blackberry wont unlock it its fips 140 certified. and they are locking bootloader with 3072 bit RSA key. this is my device key.

backdoor? BB uses a thing called firmware update like how MS uses windows update. thats the backdoor for them and also for us.
i got a cheap mtk mobile and i really dont like it. its quadcore and a7. errrrrrrrrr
your prime usage is not the same as mine. i am going deep. replacing x-loader and u-boot with coreboot. YMMV (your mileage may vary)

______A116?

no please not that micromax canvas a116. no seriously no thanks.
i got myself a zolo q700. i like it and its cheap too.
i dislike anything from micromax. they make Mt everest out of a grain of sand.
