Re: NAND Boot Testing - 03-11: FRX05 on NAND (data working again!)
 

hey nate.. i didnt test this at all but i did implement the sdcard loop wait for the recovery. pain in the ass to restore and lose the modules .. so im still trying to master mind a way around that.

new install method WORKS! now if only I could use my other phone with android with a sim card haha, thanks alot! joys of having multiple phones, if only this could go on my lg IQ with the snapdragon and bad ass camera... :(

how far is gsm nand development?
any stuff you want me to test?
i got an rhodium-100 gsm

Re: NAND Boot Testing - 03-11: FRX05 on NAND (data working again!)
 

I think 100 is the last device on the list. But we are too behind on it for you to test anything. sorry.

Re: NAND Boot Testing - 03-11: FRX05 on NAND (data working again!)
 

What about something like this?

tar -cvzf /cache/modules.tgz /data/modules/
/bin/flash_eraseall /dev/mtd/mtd3 > /dev/null
/bin/mount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /data > /dev/null
tar -xzf /cache/modules.tgz -C /data

GPS works flawlessly on my phone. Takes about 2 minutes to get the initial lock, but after that, it's great.

Perhaps he means the XTRA interface or the 'warm-boot' injection...?

Those would be nice, but it seems like they're going to be difficult as they're undocumented.

i ran my first test yesterday to restructure the modules path. I tried to port over sqsh4 so i can try the other method but the patch is too massive. So ill try to night with yaffs2 instead. If it works, then we will just do as you said and copy them over to system and mount looping them. This way we can wipe data all we want and not loose anything. Only thing we need to make sure is that people wipe their old modules or else system will just baloon up.

Also because the recovery is only 8mb, we will only have room for 1 extra kernel in there.. ohh well.. better than nothing

Re: NAND Boot Testing - 03-11: FRX05 on NAND (data working again!)
 

Couple of easy fixes there. We can make recovery 16 MB or something larger if you'd like. It can come from cache or from data.

For modules, I think very very few people will be wanting to hold onto their old kernel once they upgrade, but if they do, we could require a sd card for that. Just move them into a tgz on the sd card using the old uname as the name so that the kernel can grab its appropriate modules :)
