2ndboot with working radio - Milestone XT720 Android Development

First I want to say thank you to czechop for his patch and all his work and for telling me wich files to mod to have radio working.
I want to say thank you to fjfalcon and Mioze7Ae too for kernel sources and all their work for our phone.
Currently phone boot on 2ndboot kernel from OpenRecovery with a script.
It boot slow and with some bugs but it boot and ask for pin code and radio is working (I was abble to make a call)
So 2ndboot kernel sources are here : https://github.com/Zachary57/android_kernel/tree/kernel-mod
Kernel image is attached
To use (at your own risk) :
1-Download zip attached
2-Extract 2ndboot.zip to /system (2ndboot.zip is on attached zip so you need to unzip 2 zip) and 2ndboot_system.sh to /sdcard/OpenRecovery/scripts
You should now have /system/2ndboot folder on your phone and 2ndboot.sh in /sdcard/OpenRecovery/scripts
3-Reboot phone holding volume up to boot into OpenRecovery
4-Select run script / 2ndboot_system.sh
It will run script /sdcard/OpenRecovery/scripts/2ndboot.sh that call file in /system/2ndboot
Specifications :
-Kernel OC to 1GHz stock voltage
-SWAP
-Smartass V2 governor
Problems :
-It sometimes fail to boot.
-Sometimes 2ndboot stop to work (you have infinite reboot) so you need to erase files and download them again to make it working

Yes it is possible to load custom kernel without pc. kern.zip contain custom kernel only.

Do you continue working and updating 2nbdoot for best working and what is functional of kern.zip?

For now I am learning kernel developpement but I will try to update this.
In kern.zip all work like with stock kernel. I just applied czechop patch on Mioze7Ae kernel sources and czechop tell me what line was wrong.
I don't know if swap work. I think it is on kernel but I can't make it working for now.
[UPDATE]
Swap not implemented on kernel. I will try to implement it.

How long need wait script installing 2ndboot in OR?

It doesn't install it just script and files that you copy to sdcard. Then you run script that load 2ndboot kernel. You have to do that on each reboot while we don't put a script that make that automatically at startup.
When you hit 2ndboot.sh in OpenRecovery/run script it take approximately 2minutes to start boot.

where put kern.zip,and where put core with swap support? for example boot3.img.I run script 2ndboot.sh and its install and reboot,but how use 2nbdoot?

When you run 2ndboot script it run custom kernel that is provided in zip. kern.zip is already on other zip. It is kernel image.
You can't boot boot3.img you can only boot zImage (it is what is kern).
Kern is a zImage it contain custom kernel modded to keep radio working after 2ndboot.

how install kern.zip? and where put him?

Great job done man.
I will look at cm10 for xt720.
i had been working this and very happy you succed in 2ndboot working.
I will switch back to xt720 and try this.
Thanks for your work!!!

Don't install it. Just extract files from 2ndboot.zip :
Extract 2ndboot to /sdcard and 2ndboot.sh to /sdcard/OpenRecovery/scripts
2ndboot.zip contain all files needed. kern.zip is for developpers that have 2ndboot module.

We can install .zip files,and we need .zip core

vadims746 said:
ok thanks,and how i can now install boot.img?

The only way to use boot.img is to use fastboot on each reboot : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990735

It suggests that we need .zip core?

Kerel reboot take about 2 minutes. It is long but it work everytime (with usb wire disconnected) I tried.
Can you explain more "do put kernal main storage card ?" I didn't understand that part of your sentence.
I use Mioze7Ae 2ndboot files from here : forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1388600&d=1349812889
with zImage I compiled (zImage is kern) and source are available here : https://github.com/Zachary57/android_kernel/tree/kernel-mod
In fact custom kernel is kern (it's a zImage file) and is located in /sdcard/2ndboot.
2ndboot.sh script load it using 2ndboot.

Yes the kernel i downloaded were do i put it.
Also on italy sbf just let you know.

[Q] ANSWERED!! NAND.. can you change kernels?

Hi guys,
Is it possible to change the kernel of a nand build at all?
I am an Extended Battery user and find only NAND builds with Hastarins kernel work at all..
Is there a way of mixing and matching Kernels with builds?

Just made something for you, note: haven't tested it:
Kernel Theiving
How to:
- Install Nand version which has the kernel you want.
- Run "extract_kernel.bat"
- Install Nand version you like, and want to keep.
- Run "install_kernel.bat".
- Et voila!
Now, you only have to use "install_kernel.bat" if you flash another rom.
Note: You need adb installed on your PC
Quickie on how to install adb:
Moon2 said:
You need adb:
-Get this installer: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
-Go to Available Packages, Expand Third Party - Google - select USB Driver
-Update adb driver, if not already installed from: C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver
-Copy "adb.exe" and "AdbWinApi.dll" from "C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools" to "C:\Windows\System32".

I read the batch file and
you have created a folder called boot under data folder and pasted the zimage
so everytime when we boot out Hd2s it going to replace the zimage with the one in boot folder, so i guess its going to delay the booting process (correct me if im wrong) so is it possible to delete that folder after booting our Leos?

No, that's not what it does. it mounts the boot partition temporarily to /data/boot, and after it's mounted, adb copies over the zImage file, and overwrites the preexisting kernel image, after this, the partition is unmounted. So it's not repeated at each boot.
works a treat...
I just used Android commander..
made sure it was connected..
then ran the extract batch file
installed the nand build i wanted...
then ran the install Kernel.bat
and it works a treat!!!!

Is all that done on the phone? It seems you installed the kernel on the phone somehow. I'm clueless about adb, I tried to use it before but was dumbfounded by it all.
Do I need Eclipse? Downloading the SDK stuff...installing JDA SE and it talks about Eclipse.

[CWM] [Flashable] [Only for Aurora 4.1a] Updated init.d support

I'm sorry to have to open another thread just for this, but I was waiting for zephyr1988 to update his files for aurora 4.1a. As he didn't do it yet, here it is
I had posted these in the other thread, but the files are now outdated and there was some confusion regarding the kernel inside the zip. These files, fix this, because I updated the kernel and services.jar for Aurora 4.1a.
Please, to understand what this does, read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710233
Notes:
- This is only for those with Aurora 4.1 + 4.1a update. For other versions, there will be auto-reboots, especially with the gallery, so, if don't have the latest aurora version, don't install this.
To install, flash both zips in recovery. Boot takes a little longer, but believe it, it's worth it

Sorry if this question was already answered.
What are the changes in the boot.img?
dzo already added support to run init.d scripts already in kernel of the versions 4.1+, correct?
Why you need to add it to your zip?
Another question, what does the OOM_Priority_Charger_Aurora_4.1a.zip?
Couldn't flash OOM_Priority_Charger_Aurora_4.1a.zip through recovery, says installation aborted..

It's the same one that's in update 4.1a, I kept it because there was a boot.img in the original script, I don't know if removing it would lead to the script not working...

It's working here, I tried it again just now... what CWM are you using? You can also just extract the services.jar that's inside the zip, and copy it to /system/framework, replace the default and set permissions like the default and reboot.

If I already have the 4.1 or 4.1a installed I already have the boot.img in my phone and It already have the support for init.d. So I think you do not need to add it to your zip.
That is creating problems only.
This is just a comment to improve your work and correct me if I'm wrong. I'll appreciate.

It doesn't create any problem at all, because I didn't modify the 4.1a kernel in any way, it's the same that it's in dzo's 4.1aupdate zip.
On the other hand, removing it could cause problems with the updater script in this flashable zip, that's why I kept it in my flashable zip. You are not forced to install this zip if you don't want, but I can guarantee the boot.img is the same that's in dzo update, there's nothing bad coming from flashing it.

Hello fjsferreira,
Thanks for updating the zip, I was away for a week with no access to a PC.
I have updated the original thread with 4.1a OOM priority charger and a init.d zip that does not mess with the boot.img now that dzo has included it in his ROM, so it should be compatible with newer versions.
I ve read the threads but still dont know what is OOM priority charger or any charger and init.d . Can someone explain it to m?

These are scripts that run at boot time to change memory management so that you always have a good amount of memory available. The package also contains some scripts to fine tune screen sensitivity, sdcard and CPU performance, those require editing the script files to uncomment some lines. Read the instructions on the other thread to fine out how to use this.

Help-v6 supercharger script

HELLO EVERYONE
I AM CURRENTLY DEVELOPING A ROM AND I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO ADD V6 SUPERCHARGER SCRIPT TO
MY ROM
--abhishekr700
just run v6 supercharger in your rom - set it all up then pull your system to your pc either with adb or use the tar command in android terminal emulator on phone and copy to pc
then use the tar file generated in android kitchen to set up working folder

i started building rom from stock rom and stock kernel
i added int.d support via android kitchen
so will init.d work

Hi, I test it on cm13 and I unpack recovery.img for HTC desire 816, I think it work fine.
If the apk didn't work properly that's means the boot image doesn't not following Google's standard format so you'll need to find other tools to unpack and edit your image.

I pointed to the anykernel2 link because I know its scripting handles dtbs.
the whole kernel device table thing is new to me, and so far only on this device, so I'm not very savvy with dtb work. been lucky enough that it was preconfigured in the build system for cm.

The scope of my tools is for Google's Android image standard as defined in the bootimg.h header from AOSP/CM. My tool forks have the widest support available for images which are standards compliant, supporting all commonly used ramdisk compression formats.
Supporting Sony's ELF, MTK's labeled and Samsung's headerless image formats along with the standard images (not to mention Samsung's and others' various deviations based on the standard header) and having the script/app differentiate between them would be a very large and difficult undertaking indeed. If that's your plan then I wish you the best of luck in your efforts.

Thank you for adding the appropriate credit back to your post. Patching, cross-compiling and scripting has taken significant work. :good:
The only other thing that I'd ask is that you do not use the name of Android Image Kitchen or AIK in the title of your app. I'd like to suggest maybe "Image Editor and Flasher" as a snappy alternative?

it's a useful project, definitely worth a little testing and feedback.
besides, i remember what a pain it was getting my xda account eligible for posting the project i was all gung-ho about sharing (optimus v boot from sd card if i remember correctly)
sharing is cool, but a lot of the feedback tends to be annoying when there's no logs or other usable information, just "it's broken" or "can you implement for me on device XYZ."

Please use a different name for your app as I have requested.

[Utility] Android boot Manager APK

Android Boot Manager (ABM), my goal is to make the procedure (Backup, Unpack, Edit, Repack and Flashe boot.img or recovery.img) so easy and accessible to all users without resorting to the command prompt , only a single click to get a quick and successful outcome at the same time .
This is the third version of the program.
Source (GITHUB SOURCE https://github.com/aToxyD/android_boot_image_manager_apk).
WHAT'S NEW
- Some optimization.
- Add new Text Editor with high syntax.
THANKS
* xiaolu, original author of boot.img tool(GITHUB SOURCE https://github.com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools).
* Modding.MyMind, for his heavily modification of boot.img tool.
* Tah Wei Hoon, for TextWarrior.
* Dmytro Tarianyk, for Android Floating Action Button.
* Anthony Restaino, for Grant.
IMPORTANT
- Root is only necessary for Unpacking boot patched by "superSu or Magisk" and Backup/Flash Operations, so if you want to unpack stock boot or you have your favorite flasher apk like "Rachr", if so you dont need to check "Root Access" in settings menu.
- Please uninstall any previous version of ABM before installing the newer.
I do not like people to coming here and take what they wanted and leave like a thief , at least leave a comment. . .
This work is for all, so help your self.

This is the second version of the program.
WHAT'S NEW
- Corrected some bugs related to compatibility with Android 6.
- Use xiaolu mkbootimg tools (GITHUB SOURCE https://github.com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools)
TODO
- add support to x86, mips arch.
- add support to put files to unpacked folder.
- add support to combinedboot , in Xperia device recovery ramdisk is combined with system ramdisk.
IMPORTANT
- The apk need root access to work.
- Note that make change by adding files to unpacked folder with root explorer, the owner will be root and the apk will not work, if you do this you must change the owner to ABM apk.

But beware when you add new files to the unpacked folder , you must take into account that owner will be. root , so you must set owner to ABM apk.

So I tested with twrp IMG, and successful unpack to /data/local. Then I tried with my current kernel, and nothing's happening. I get a message that's not clear to me, (screenshot 2), and no output. Any ideas?

It seems that you delete the directory /data/local/ABM, So close the apk and open it again or wipe apk data and try again, if any problems tell me please :thumbup:

That was my original thought, so I wiped data and tries again, but no different... I'll just uninstall and reinstall, and probably be fine. Thanks

It seems that the image you want to unpack it is not an android image.

It's the AOSP kernel from the ROM I'm currently using.

Try to edit devices.xml in /sdcard/ABM directory and backup kernel using ABM app, after try to unpack boo.img backed up, you find it in /sdcard/ABM/backup directory.
