Thanks for pointing out that bluetooth wasn't working. I missed a patch
to carry forward. Accelerometer are working, however, it is just the
only thing they are used for at the moment is to flip orientation when
playing a video. GPS was also working. How are you determining that it
is not? There used to be a dev tool to let you see location fix
information, but it is no longer available. Finally, I've had Wifi
working on several occasions, but it is somewhat picky in the various
kernel version. Android is setup properly for Wifi, however.
Cheers,
Sean
