You'll also find a lot of other useful repos in there related to SHIELD (aka roth)
rel = Release (as opposed to dev)
roth = Jumble of the word THOR
mp = Original shipping image on the device
ota-1 = Day 0 OTA

Did you just say 4.3?

I'm not able to talk about that. That would be internal schedule details.

Ah NP I completely understand!

He did, as did google. The 2nd gen nexus 7 is shipping with 4.3 and several high end devices are getting 4.3 updates too. Kinda logical that the shield would get it eventually.

 

[Character Zero]

One review I read said the target was 4-6 weeks after the google update. Is that still the goal or could it be faster?

You can run the extract blob script. It contains a license which I haven't bothered to read. I'm hoping to have a github up this weekend with all the required blobs.

No idea on wifi, but the config is available on the device in /proc/config.gz

Don't have the device yet, was just wondering about the wifi driver used. Could you perhaps fetch the config.gz for me please? Thanks for the info.

 

[Gnurou]

Wifi driver is bcmdhd (drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd) on Android kernel.
