I can safely say now that the freezing is low-memory based - left my 770 working all night on stand-by and found it working in the morning. I'm using software watchdog (which judging from dmesg is not working :), because the OMAP one restarts the device too often.

You can minimize the restarts by limiting the number of running processes in Android. BTW if your adb disconnects often - probably was killed for memory :) After that you need to reconnect the cable, then kill the adb server and start it anew.

Do you compile in CONFIG_LOW_MEMORY_KILLER=y kernel option? That will make Android kill uneeded apps when low on memory.

Will try to compile out uneeded software for the next release as you suggested (phone services to start).

Yes, but seems its not enough :(

Yep, Camera is just a stub too... :)

Hopefully not forever!

I can't find out why it is not scanning the WiFi.

It just says

CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS Ready

over and over...

WiFi works, and it seems to be trying to scan, but nothing is happening. And it auto connects to predefined access points, but can't find new ones.

Camera will certainly stay a stub on the 770 :-)

Bundyo, impressive reverse-engineering work !
That almost makes one sympathise with Nokia dropping the platform after OS2006 :-)

Heh, that's not reverse-engineering :) But thanks anyway :)

This actually surprises me a bit. Isn't the G1 a 64 MB machine just like the 770?
