The init hacks are in this week's work. I won't be able to get the |
| 10 |
UART cable that my friend made until May 12th, though. I'll mention how |
| 11 |
it goes when I get the cable, so stay tuned. |

I've linked the referred articles inline; is that not enough (and I need to |
| 32 |
Explicitly list the references at the end of the article)? |

The problem is that I can't find a repository for angler's kernel source at |
| 48 |
https://android.googlesource.com/ , and angler is approaching its EOL deadline; |
| 49 |
what's more, the problems I encounter are located in the sources that are not |
| 50 |
used by Android (they're off in the device defconfig). I'll try though, but I |
| 51 |
don't expect much in this. |
