Software specifications

Android HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) > Audio

> For access to the voice functionality through Alsa APIs > GPS

> For access to the GPS functionality > Radio RIL (Radio Interface Layer)

> For GSM and CDMA radios > Provides an abstraction layer between Android telephony services and radio hardware and consists of a stack of two components: a RIL Daemon and a Vendor RIL. The RIL Daemon talks to the telephony services and dispatches “solicited commands” to the Vendor RIL such as DIAL and HANGUP. The Vendor RIL is specific to our particular radio implementation, and dispatches “unsolicited commands” up to the RIL Daemon, such as CALL_STATE_CHANGED and NEW_SMS

> Main features > Voice calls, USSD calls, SMS, MMS, DTMF > Call waiting, forwarding, conferencing, muting > Data connection > Automatic and manual network selection > SIM toolkit support

Linux Kernel > HSO driver available in all Linux kernel versions 2.6.27 and above

Android versions > Versions currently supported: 1.6 (Donut), 2.1 (Éclair), 2.2 (Froyo)

> Support for version 3.0 (Gingerbread) is planned for Q4 2010

Software deliverables > All Option deliverables are in source code and verified on the Option reference platform > The default delivery package contains a source code license, one year of maintenance on the delivered code and 10 days of integration support > Other delivery packages are available on request, f.i. with source code verified on your development platform
