No. Sorry. Need to be a NAND Kernal.

:pale: NAND Kernal is hard to wake up, like SoD... Back to WM+android

This is not a SOD!
Press the Top power button and then the menu key... Works great for me. :)

I have a new boot.img that fixes WIFI.
boot.img <--- Place the boot.img file in your fastboot folder.

Process:
Remove wifi-nvram.txt from the data folder.
Boot into recovery by holding the top power button once you see the blue screen.
In ADB Type:
flash_eraseall /dev/mtd/mtd1
reboot
In Fastboot Type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
If your WIFI still does not work and you are sure you removed your wifi-nvram.txt please let me know.

ok, Im rather new to android on rhodium (full time android on..HD2 user ;) ), but I wanted to try it out anyway. Since there seems to be no feedback from GSM users (RHOD300 here) Im posting a bug I encountered: NBH flashes fine, Fastboot interface can detect it, but I am unable to access recovery from LK to install androidupdate.

I get following errors after holding power:
it lists partitions1-5
+gpio_keys_init
-gpio_keys_init
-target_init
calling apps_init()
flash read: recovery 0 800
flash_read_image: failed (2048 errors) EDIT: after flashing boot.img without installing android via recovery it changes to (3072)
ERROR: Cannot read boot image header
ERROR: Could not do normal boot. Reverting to fastboot mode.

and it stays in fastboot - again fully accessible by fastboot.

I tried desperate measures like insalling new boot.img via fastboot and it works partially - I get android console text rolling till it stops at lack of init.rc. I was hoping to access recovery at the prompt in android console, but without any luck.
Same results with and without SIM card and device had task29 run on it prior to installing LK, currently using SPL-0.85 Olinex. Both WM and Android via Haret work fine on the device.
..and yes, I realize you asked noobs not to install it till it's proven to work, but I hope this feedback can be of some use.

Anyway, huge props to you guys for doing what you do - many RHOD users appreciate it (even ones who moved to other devices).

Yes, use power and menu key, can not wake up, last night about 3 times, I have to remove battery .

Not rooted? Titanium.Backup hint me no root...

bootlog.txt, does ln fail?

Thanks for this! This is good info.
I'm pretty sure the offset of the GSM phones are different then the CDMA's.
Can you try this for me?

Download this recovery.img and add to your fastboot folder.

Then in your command window cd to your fastboot folder and type:
fastboot boot recovery.img

It will then load up recovery for you.
From here you can just type:
adb.exe shell
mount sdcard
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > sdcard/mtd0.txt
This might taken a bit to complete. It should give you a file around 48MB.
If you can upload this to a file sharing site that would be great! Then paste the link here.

Thanks!

For extra credit you can do the same for mtd1. :)

Everything is included for root.
Just load superuser right away and everything should work just fine.

I just select "install" menu at recovery, did I need to execute "update" menu too?

Nope the Install will work just fine as long as you added the androidupdate.tgz from my post.

I'm on it Lmiller, results below:
1. before you posted that, I did some research on my own - I flashed via fastboot recovery image from Index of /files/LK/ to recovery partition (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) and was able to access recovery via holding power. Couldn't access it reliably every time, but from what i read power button has issues now. Now, from recovery I flashed androidupdate.tgz and it seems to have worked as it took about 5min, so I think recovery is able to mount sd card properly (if it couldn't find and process the file on sd card installation of android wouldn't take that long imo). After that quick reboot from recovery and I flashed updated boot image from your last post to boot partition via fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img) and got boot loop.
when I got back to recovery and tried to pull cat from sdcard, i got error:
/ # ←[6nmount sdcard
mount sdcard
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory

oh, and battery just died on me in recovery - I'll update post when it charges and I install new recovery to boot partition ;)

EDIT: i could not pull mtd0 or mtd1 cats from setup above - didn't throw any errors, but created no file on sdcard

2. now per your instructions - recovery image
-task29
-flash NBH via RUU (btw. "XDAPOOP"? you guys really don't like each other much, huh? lol)
-fastboot boot recovery.img
-adb.exe shell
-mount sdcard
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblock0p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory.
-cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > sdcard/mtd0.txt
-cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 > sdcard/mtd1.txt
no results as before - no file created, no errors thrown

Hope that can be of help.

huge thanks for your time Lmiller - I really want to get it to work =)

Thanks for the Help! But the SDcard need to be found or mounted first.

Try pulling the files to your Fastboot folder.
adb pull /dev/mtd/mtd0 mtd0.txt
adb pull /dev/mtd/mtd1 mtd1.txt
