Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*
 

The update for today is a good one I think anyways. I discovered a problem with the program I was using to flash the phones with. RSDLite. It wasnt working right, and I had 2 different devices get stuck in the bootloader and wouldnt flash or anything anymore. the flash would fail everytime at 95%,

to most this might be a bad thing, but it was a really good thing. because I was then able to figure out how i can use Motorola Software Update program to flash the file. So now there is no browsing for your file, all it is doing it plug phone into USB and load up program and press GO, and this is doing custom roms. So that is a good sign.

I am still getting Stalled in bootloader when I do a custom, and I am still working on figuring out what I am missing or over writing. I saw someone post that I might be missing a line that tells it to read from Internal Storage. Does anyone know what this line will look like or anything it would be very helpful.

but to recap, I am not able to use Motorola Software Update program to Flash the files, so that is a plus for the day. But I am still working on this, and oping to get it soon.

It is something in the OS part that is not booting, beucase I can copy the XIP, ULDR and header, into that file right from a working build, and it will not get out of bootloader, so I am going through that with a fine tooth comb now trying to find something that looks out of place.

Just curious, is the chipset driver the same between these phones, (original Q and 9qc ect.) if they have different chipsets, would that not cause the same problem?

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*
 

mega cool. I upgraded to a TP earlier this year after I bricked my Q....I still paid to have my Q unbricked (bootloader error and was unable with RSDlite or Moto upgrade to reflash) since I really wanted to have it as a backup....

looking foward to this, the girl I work with has a q9c and I'd be a hero (if you know what I mean..hehe) if I could hook her phone up..lol Ive been looking all over for a custom rom for this unit but cant find anything. :(

It feels like an eternity waiting for good news on this subject.

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*
 

a suggestion... have you tried installing HardSPL? if I am reading things correctly that could very well be what is causing the problem.... shoot me a PM with a link and I will happily test it on my q

Q9m = 32bit Intel XScale PXA270

Q9h = Texas Instruments OMAP 2420 RISC Chipset
