![LINUX KERNEL](/assets/categories/linuxkernel.webp)
The DeviceTree additions are currently staged ahead of the Linux 4.19 kernel for these S5Pv210 Aries based smartphones. With this code in place for Linux 4.19, the Galaxy S should at least see working mainline support for storage, PMIC, RTC, fuel gauge, keys, USB, and WiFi working in order.
The Galaxy S support in Linux 4.19 is being staged by this commit as part of the forthcoming ARM SoC/platform improvements for this next kernel cycle.
The Galaxy S launched with Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread and was using a Samsung Exynos 3 SoC, 1GHz single-core Cortex-A8 and PowerVR SGX graphics with 512MB of RAM.
