I would be telling them they have a bricked compass.

Anyway, I'm about ready to pull the latest build even if it sucks and play with it.

I'd love to get in there and help but I'm no programmer/dev.

I've put together a FAQ with what I could think of for now. If you have any other information that you guys think would be particularly helpful, let me know. I do plan on putting together a step by step for flashing and what files do what. I also plan on compiling a list of useful commands for debugging (like dmesg >> /sdcard/log.txt)

the startup text is in tinboot. that is why you cannot change any boot options unless you recompile it. =P

Good Job Guys! Continue the great work. I should be able to test when I'm not as busy. Should be soon, I hope...

I'd figure you say something of the sort. WinMo has been backed up.

I still have my old MR2 RUU and I got the Custom RUU which I will probably use as well as my mighty rom version I am running now.

Provided flashing this 20 BILLION times doesn't brick it, I'll be good

Update:

Ran Task 29 just to be safe.

Flashed with Test 7: Single nbh file. Using 9-28 Kernel.

Boots and looks good so far. Text is smaller for Icons. Looks nicer IMHO. Everything is resized nicely.

Winmo is Officially Gone. Feels great too.... A newly liberated Windows Device.

Great Job!!

Works:
Data
GPS
SMS
Sound - Call and Normal
3d
Speakerphone - Sound and bottom mic


Not Working:
Wifi
Bluetooth as before
Screen not sleeping.
No LED status light
Anything else not working in other builds

I forget what else to check... lol

I'm taking a look into wifi right now. It should be working. After my work reading through what tinboot is doing, I noticed I'm missing compcache and ti from my modules. I'll be putting an updated NBH, zImage, and modules up on the first post within the hour. I just want to test them first

[natemcnutty]

OK, here's the latest update. I have refactored a bunch of the first couple of posts with some new information. After trying to make modifications to tinboot to make it work, I decided to create NBH files from previous builds and check those. On the plus side, they all worked; on the downside, that means the commits for 3D messed things up (at least for me).

I have now included the NBH file with the builds from the 23rd and the 25th. The zImage is only included with those for reference and is not needed for NAND booting since the NBH puts the zImage and initrd.gz onto the NAND.

If you guys could test the one from the 25th and let me know how it works for you, that would be awesome. As far as the latest build with hw3d enabled, I'm learning how to start with a base of the 25th and selectively add one commit at a time to find which one breaks it for me
