NAND Testing - 05-25 Update: New LK, Recovery.img, Kernel Updates through Recovery

[coolsilver]

Well that must be why I had a glitchy boot animation.

The package before only contained the graloc file for the sd card. No libGLES.

Putting them both in seems to be good now.

its good as long as you modify the conf file as well. Thats how its done in haret anyways..

I did cook it into the rootfs, so you no longer need to modify the conf file. If gralloc, libGLES, and build.prop are there, it will use it instead of the default files. If they aren't there, it just uses the default files.

I made this specific change because gralloc is already added in rootfs by the time the last commands go through. I thought perhaps that was causing issues and decided to make it an either use the SD card or use the default file.

Also, this method makes it much easier for those who weren't sure what to do with the conf file (especially since tiad's commands are wrong in his post).

Awesome news. Once that fix is pushed through, I'll build one giant package like reefer does for haret builds. I kind of go under the presumption that people know what they are doing flashing this to NAND, but I've gotten a lot of PM's about making a full package because they can't get it working.

Yea it's funny you'd think those green newbies would shy away from something as bold as flashing Android... I guess people's hatred for WinMo drives them to do crazy things!

With that said, I would like to see a full bundle. Less silly questions to answer (hopefully!)

lol.. careful.. people can be really dumb and kill their phones and all of the sudden you are the evil guy.

Like i always say.. nand is for the bold and brave.. and majority of the folk out there aren't ready for it. They wont be until we go full nand where everything is managed.

took the words right out of my mouth..

this is just dev only and should be treated as so. Or else this thread will get flooded with noob questions and will kill our progress. We should make like a written test to see if they can dump crap from haret before they use :-p

had the second to latest build working off a 1gb because i assumed i'd only be testing with it. however, it's pretty darn solid, so i'm useing my 8gb instead with the latest build. couldn't get it to boot last night n now the bats dead and i'm stuck in a boot loop. gains enough power to turn on n start booting, then it dies while booting... etc.... ima try n catch it when it gains charge to boot n be holding bootload buttons down? idk lol got n idea for me?

lol This n00b seemed to figure out NAND. I'd like to do more for you guys.

I can't say I wasn't flamed before when I thought I bricked my phone from a dead battery. But I learned quite a bit so far. Still plenty more to know.
