Rockbox as mobile phone soft?

(1/5) > >>

RavMahov:
I've got unused Sony Ericsson W300i. Is it possible to make Rockbox it's main firmware? I don't care about it's telephone and text messenger functions and Java is too slow and limited. If it will be possible to convert this phone to music player with many playable formats, cool options, full customizability and many additional features (playing Doom?! maybe some use of camera and second screen? maybe sim-card reader utility? IRDA? Bluetooth?)

saratoga:
No.

RavMahov:
I wanted more complicated answer like:
-there is no compiler for SE processors
-no one is going to do it (I wanted to do it btw, but I need some help)
and some technical info. I just disassembled mobile to look in it, I can send photo of mainboard with chip symbols

Ah ok.  The wiki is offline now, but you can still see the google cache of the newport page:

Since thats a cell phone, its an ARM processor, so at least theres a compiler for it.

RavMahov:
Thanks for some info. Hmm, if these mobiles can be upgraded with soft from PC (some key needed to be hold) it shouldn't be that hard to install new soft. Worse if I'll broke something xD Is there any W300i owner interested in work on it? Any help will be appreciated :)
