The other day I got a new, shiny freerunner. This is my
dream mobile phone/ wearable computer. The HW spec can be found here [1] . Reading the wiki I pleasantly discovered that two HW problem were fixed in my phone release, namely the battery problem and the GPS problem. I can boot my freerunner without the battery. Before because the charging circuitry wasn't activated but after the boot, it was impossible to boot the phone without a battery, or with a dry battery. Now this problem seems gone. This is the reference [2] . The second problem is related to an bad interaction between the sd card and the GPS chip. The fix is to add a small resistor. From a visual inspection of my phone, the resitor seems already in place. I haven't try it yet, but I hope this is the case. Reference [3]

I think my freerunner is the GTA02v6
