h2. Projects and/or hardware that can be used to do functional testing

h3. Lava

"Lava":https://www.linaro.org/engineering/projects/lava/ can be used to do functional tests on real hardware. It can be easily installed on PureOS, an FSDG compliant GNU/Linux distribution.

h3. OsmoGSMTester

The "OsmoGSMTester project":https://osmocom.org/projects/osmo-gsm-tester is able to be interfaced with the Android RIL through ofono and can emulate a GSM network with the help of a compatible GSM base station or SDR.

h3. Simtrace2

The "Simtrace 2 project":https://osmocom.org/projects/simtrace2/wiki can be used, along with SIM card readers to programmatically feed a SIM card to a smartphone. This can be used to run test on real networks.

h2. Replicant supported devices and testing

h3. Requirements

* Antenna connector for the modem

* The ability to control the device buttons in order to be able to programmatically power on and off the device, and trigger boots into the bootloader and recovery

* Optionally a way to connect to the serial port, programmatically

h3. Galaxy S2 (I9100)

* The Galaxy S2 (I9100) has:

** An antenna connector

** The SOC serial port that is accessible behind the USB connector at a low voltage

** A full size mini-sim (easier to interface with)

Holding the smartphone in place:

* The smartphone could either be screwed on a metallic surface or an external case could be screwed on a metallic surface enabling the smartphone not to move.

SIM cards:

* Simtrace 2 lacks screw holes so a way must be found to make sure that it doesn't move as it uses flex cables to interface with the SIM socket of the smartphone.
