Could I get a quick explanation of what the term "bad block" means?

Memory is allocated into blocks, each block is basically a space to store information. Sometimes you get a bad block that can not be written to or read from. Same thing happens on hard drives.

I'll post here when that's ready for a last formal test. do not nag testers for any files until then, they are far from final (not all features included in HardSPL).

2) can the people who know how to use mtty, do the following check:
enter bootloader and do "info 8"? and if the result does NOT show "samsung_kby00n00hm" for DEVICE NAME, then PLEASE post the different DEVICE NAME here! this is just in case there are imagios with a different nand version (my code should handle that, but I like to check things out properly). thanks!

Com... I have a fone that's going back to verizon within a day or 2 due to the end and return key not clicking, if you need me to flash a rom let me know ASAP and PM me the download for testing..... If not i look forward to your updates

[hesantos83]
