  1. 01:03:48 <@HCDRJacob> http://kan.gd/aiu
  2. 01:04:09 -!- HCDRJacob changed the topic of #zteblade to: This is NOT helpdesk channel and we DO NOT WANT miuiuiui talk. || ALL ARGUMENTS WILL RESULT IN THOSE ARGUING NOT BEING
  3. ALLOWED TO SPEAK AND PUT IN THE DETENTION CHANNEL (#bitchfight) || CM7 Gen2 ROM: http://kan.gd/aiv || CM7 Gen2 gerrit patch: http://kan.gd/aiu
  4. 01:04:20 <@HCDRJacob> ROM in the topic if anyone wants it
  5. 01:05:38 <@t0mm13b> cool!
  6. 01:05:43 <@t0mm13b> thanks HCDRJacob :)
  7. 01:05:48 <@HCDRJacob> :)
  8. 01:06:00 <@HCDRJacob> I'm running it here
  9. 01:06:04 <@HCDRJacob> seems to be working good
  10. 01:06:23 <@t0mm13b> ok...time to back up with titanium...
  11. 01:06:53 <@HCDRJacob> t0mm13b, I did a nandroid, went through the Gen2 process, restored the nandroid and then flashed Gen2 CM on top
  12. 01:06:58 <@HCDRJacob> kept all my data that way
  13. 01:07:12 <@HCDRJacob> make sure you transfer the zip to the SD before doing the gen2 process thoguh
  14. 01:07:14 <@HCDRJacob> *though
  15. 01:07:45 <@t0mm13b> root folder of the sd card
  16. 01:07:51 -!- ChrisD1 [[email protected]] has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
  17. 01:07:54 <@t0mm13b> (btw does this require a clockwork mod update?)
  18. 01:08:06 <@t0mm13b> am on 3.1.x smth
  19. 01:08:07 <@HCDRJacob> t0mm13b, Gen2 thread explains everything
  20. 01:08:17 <@HCDRJacob> just do a nandroid as normal
  21. 01:08:22 <@HCDRJacob> transfer the zip as normal
  22. 01:08:25 <@HCDRJacob> then follow that thread
  23. 01:08:34 <@t0mm13b> great will let ya know how it goes :)
  24. 01:08:40 <@HCDRJacob> but when it says install SS, restore your backup and install CM Gen2 :)
  25. 01:08:50 <@HCDRJacob> awesome
  26. 01:14:58 < Daimaah> let's say I go with 128 MB system partition, what's the procedure to changing it in the future if it appears not to be enough?
  27. 01:15:01 < pagga> 02:07:34 <@ HCDRJacob> t0mm13b, Gen2 thread explains everything
  28. 01:15:03 < pagga> req link
  29. 01:15:37 <@HCDRJacob> it's stickied on modaco
  30. 01:15:38 <@HCDRJacob> -_-
  31. 01:15:48 <@HCDRJacob> Daimaah, it's not enough
  32. 01:15:53 <@HCDRJacob> use the 136mb one
  33. 01:16:03 < Daimaah> with 2 mb cache?
  34. 01:16:06 <@HCDRJacob> you guys are my test subjects
  35. 01:16:07 < h3sp4wn> Daimaah: It isn't enough for cm unless you remove a theme and rom manager for example first
  36. 01:16:10 <@HCDRJacob> lemme know how it goes
  37. 01:16:18 <@HCDRJacob> Daimaah, yeah cache is fine
  38. 01:16:21 <@HCDRJacob> CM deals with it
  39. 01:16:26 <@HCDRJacob> I think
  40. 01:17:01 < Daimaah> but if I decided to use SS, cache would be a problem? :)
  41. 01:17:07 <@HCDRJacob> i dunno
  42. 01:17:16 < h3sp4wn> unless you use cache to tmpfs
  43. 01:17:27 < h3sp4wn> there is a patch for that
  44. 01:17:33 < Daimaah> I don't mess with settings at all really
  45. 01:17:53 < h3sp4wn> Do you use the AHB overclocking kernel on SS ?
  46. 01:18:01 < Daimaah> I do
  47. 01:18:25 < h3sp4wn> You have to build it yourself if you want that on CM7
  48. 01:18:46 < Daimaah> I don't plan to run CM7 before USB tethering works :)
  49. 01:19:21 < h3sp4wn> No reason to not just use a 128MB for SS then really
  50. 01:19:39 < Daimaah> yeah, but that brings me back to my original question :p
  51. 01:19:45 < Daimaah> if i need to change it later...
  52. 01:19:53 < h3sp4wn> Its pretty trivial
  53. 01:20:23 < h3sp4wn> adb shell
  54. 01:20:29 < h3sp4wn> adb reboot bootloader
  55. 01:20:31 < pagga> 02:15:04 <@ HCDRJacob> it's stickied on modaco
  56. 01:20:36 < pagga> i don't see it...
  57. 01:20:40 < pagga> in the blade forum
  58. 01:20:55 < h3sp4wn> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (stock recovery)
  59. 01:21:10 < h3sp4wn> Daimaah: then you follow the guide again)
  60. 01:21:25 < Daimaah> reflash the 2.2 with the upgrade program?
  61. 01:21:25 < h3sp4wn> *stock gen2 recovery if its a repartition
  62. [u][b]01:21:38 <@t0mm13b> pagga: http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blade-roms-rom-customisation/336281/how-to-upgrade-gen1-to-gen2-windows-only/[/b][/u]
  63. 01:21:53 < h3sp4wn> All the update program does is install recovery and change the partitions its been hacked up
  64. 01:26:21 < Daimaah> mmkay, i might finally have the courage to upgrade one of the 3 blades to gen2
  65. 01:26:29 < Daimaah> tomorrow, gonna sleep over it
  66. 01:26:41 < h3sp4wn> why do you need 3 ?
  67. 01:26:50 < Daimaah> let's just say they were cheap
  68. 01:26:58 < Daimaah> and came with unlimited broadband contracts so
  69. 01:27:29 < h3sp4wn> legal or illegal ?
  70. 01:27:39 < h3sp4wn> or no comment
  71. 01:27:43 < Daimaah> legal ofc, how would they be illegal?
  72. 01:29:01 < Daimaah> well, i guess they could be "illegal" in a way, after I ordered the 3rd one, they said that one person should only be able to have 1 contract at a time but...
  73. they still opened all 3
  74. 01:29:37 <@t0mm13b> downloaded the gen2_136mb_system_no_oem_2mb_cache.zip
  75. 01:29:39 < Daimaah> it was a bit of a surprise to hear that, everyone i know, me included, believed that anyone could have as many as they can, for as long as you're able to pay
  76. for them
  77. 01:29:57 < h3sp4wn> t0mm13b: swap the recovery.img out for the later one if you can
  78. 01:30:06 <@t0mm13b> downloaded the update update-cm-7.0.0-Blade-signed.zip and shoved into sdcard
  79. 01:30:11 <@t0mm13b> root folder btw :)
  80. 01:30:21 <@HCDRJacob> coolio
  81. 01:30:29 <@HCDRJacob> h3sp4wn, I have my own recovery
  82. 01:30:21 <@HCDRJacob> coolio
  83. 01:30:29 <@HCDRJacob> h3sp4wn, I have my own recovery
  84. 01:30:30 <@HCDRJacob> :3
  85. 01:30:35 < Daimaah> there's a newer recovery somewhere?
  86. 01:30:40 <@HCDRJacob> ROM Manager will be Gen2 soon
  87. 01:30:49 <@HCDRJacob> about the same time CM7 goes Gen2
  88. 01:31:05 < h3sp4wn> I would rather just have fastboot than rom manager
  89. 01:31:20 <@HCDRJacob> i like ROM manager
  90. 01:31:30 <@HCDRJacob> I get free ROM Manager premium
  91. 01:31:32 <@HCDRJacob> :P
  92. 01:32:35 < h3sp4wn> never used it never will

  111. 01:37:15 < Daimaah> "it's gen2"
  112. 01:37:32 <@HCDRJacob> flibblesan, signal seems better :P
  113. 01:37:33 <@t0mm13b> rebooting into clockworkmod recovery
  114. 01:38:05 <@t0mm13b> perform backup (nandroid)
  115. 01:38:16 <@flibblesan> thats a good thing
  116. 01:38:44 <@flibblesan> the other good thing is now you have proper 2.2 libs to borrow for CM7 :p
  117. 01:39:40 <@flibblesan> did Tom_G update his phone too?
  118. 01:39:55 <@t0mm13b> oops
  119. [b][i]01:40:31 <@t0mm13b> forgot to download the stock recovery meh....[/i][/b]
  120. 01:41:27 <@HCDRJacob> flibblesan, not yet
  121. 01:42:18 <@t0mm13b> will reboot back into cm7 gen1 temporarily to push the stock recovery onto sdcard... then resume... (HCDRJacob - I will copy paste the steps from this session
  122. into some thread somewhere to make it easier for others to follow!)
  123. 01:42:35 <@HCDRJacob> t0mm13b, okay
  124. 01:42:37 <@HCDRJacob> good luck

  137. 01:44:34 <@HCDRJacob> I had one of those
  138. 01:44:38 <@HCDRJacob> thought I had a brick
  139. 01:44:40 <@HCDRJacob> but it was fine
  140. 01:44:42 <@t0mm13b> ok... what I should have done is put the stock recovery rom onto the sdcard
  141. 01:44:49 <@t0mm13b> along with cm7 update for gen2
  142. 01:45:01 <@t0mm13b> that should have been done first prior to doing a nandroid backup
  143. 01:45:39 <@t0mm13b> rebooting handset as normal so that I can copy across the stock recovery....
  144. 01:45:53 < Daimaah> on the sd because....?
  145. 01:45:57 < Daimaah> you're not using fastboot?
  146. 01:45:58 <@HCDRJacob> heheh
  147. 01:46:08 <@HCDRJacob> don't install stock recovery before backup though ;D
  148. 01:46:14 <@HCDRJacob> anyway I'm really going now

  157. 01:47:36 < Daimaah> I'm just picking up pieces of information so I dont end up with a paper weight myself
  158. 01:47:52 <@t0mm13b> ok handset back up and back to the ould screen
  159. 01:48:47 <@t0mm13b> pushing across restore_stock_recovery.zip to root folder of sdcard

  178. 01:56:02 < Daimaah> sneaky updater is sneaky, stopping at 98 is like the worst possible idea of an updater
  179. 01:56:05 <@t0mm13b> progress bar moving smoothyly
  180. 01:56:10 <@t0mm13b> 96/100
  181. 01:56:15 <@t0mm13b> green man appears
  182. 01:56:28 < h3sp4wn> Daimaah: You can cancel it at 98 and its fine
  183. 01:56:29 <@t0mm13b> back into clockwork recovery
  184. 01:56:55 <@t0mm13b> now... restore the nandroid backup
  185. 01:58:24 <@t0mm13b> uhmm.. am hesitant here.... any suggestions... should I just run cm7_update_gen2?
  186. 01:59:11 < Daimaah> I'm gonna ask something when you're done.
  187. 01:59:13 <@t0mm13b> h3sp4wn: you do not cancel it at 98....btw, a dialog box appears with message saying [b]Download successful[/b]
  188. 01:59:34 <@t0mm13b> f**k it I'll go ahead with restore....
  189. 01:59:42 < h3sp4wn> t0mm13b: You can (I did it by accident once messing around in clockwork before it finished)
  190. 01:59:43 <@t0mm13b> then flash the cm7_update_gen2 on top of it...
  191. 02:00:08 <@t0mm13b> restoring....
  192. 02:00:52 <@t0mm13b> nearly there... (process was not painful)
  193. 02:01:16 < Daimaah> Why do you do a nandroid back up when on 2.1 and then restore it when on 2.2? Just to save apps and settings or because it's actually required?
  194. 02:01:29 < Daimaah> 2.1 = gen1, 2.2 = gen2*
  195. 02:01:43 <@t0mm13b> save apps/settings
  196. 02:01:57 <@t0mm13b> that's my answer :)
  197. 02:02:00 < Daimaah> ok, so for a fresh installation, no nandroids are required
  198. 02:02:35 <@t0mm13b> well... the topic ^^^ the linky to the file is a cm7_update_signed.zip
  199. 02:03:25 <@t0mm13b> which is the gen2 that goes on top of it... (tbqh, hcdrjacob said to me earlier to do a nandroid backup, go through the motions, then flash the newer zip on
  200. top of it) all settings etc are retained
  201. 02:03:33 <@t0mm13b> so I went along with it...
  202. 02:03:58 <@t0mm13b> now the next nightly that comes out later on after this weekend will be gen2, so it would then a good time to do a clearout of cache/data
  203. 02:04:14 <@t0mm13b> and treat it as a fresh installation :)
  204. 02:04:18 <@t0mm13b> make sense Daimaah ?
  205. 02:04:20 < Daimaah> ok, I thought it was needed for keeping IMEI or something very, very important
  206. 02:04:38 <@t0mm13b> Daimaah: lol... what IMEI :P
  207. 02:04:39 <@t0mm13b> lol
  208. 02:04:49 < Daimaah> you know, the universal 0
  209. 02:04:58 < Daimaah> works everywhere!
  210. 02:05:04 < Daimaah> or nowhere
  211. 02:05:05 <@t0mm13b> I took a leap of faith and trusted the procedure after reading the darn RTFM :)
  212. 02:05:42 <@t0mm13b> restore still running
  213. 02:06:18 <@t0mm13b> nearly there now....
