There is no driver support for the front camera, and noone has figured out what 
camera it is or how it is connected to the msm7200.

After sniffing the i2c bus on a phone running wince I am now certain that it is 
a ov6680 camera. It does not respond to i2c transactions to the address 0xc0 
that is used under wince without some kind of gpio setting.

there is a comment in the board-htckovsky.c file about a "VFE Mux" with a front 
and main setting. There might be something there to work on.
