h1. Galaxy S Proprietary

This is the list of the proprietary libraries, binaries and firmwares shipped on the Galaxy S and the status of their replacement.

h2. Note on shipping non-free programs

*Note that we don't ship any proprietary binary, library or firmware.*

*First because our goal is to reach a 100% free Android distribution and also because sometimes, these are not even distributables.*
