[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
ill leave that one up to you. but afaik its only been tested in cwm.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
Yes ran it on cmw
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
OK when I get some time later I'll test it with twrp.

Edit: testing with twrp now, I'll post back battery % used and total time spent nullifying when it completes. Dual wipe, so just half it for a single pass.

Edit 2: here's my findings using dual pass on twrp:

Starting battery 81% at 11:31am

Dual wipe end 77% 11:46am

Install hfks

After flash 76% 11:47am

Reboot

75% 11:51am at system start

Using this information you should get an idea of how much battery is minimum required for nullifying and flashing a rom then rebooting into the system. Works perfectly fine with twrp, so twrp and cwm users rejoice, we have nullifire for the KF! Thanks to Volk and hell for releasing this tool.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BrooksBlood:
Sorry to sound like a noob, but I've never used a script through twrp. How do you do it? I usually just run scripts with from toolbox but don't want to try and have it get screwed. Thanks a lot, I know its probably really simple, just wanted some steps to do it.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
Its the same as flashing a rom, just pick the nullifier zip instead of a rom. I'm working on a video to show the process in twrp, but for now here goes....

Boot into your recovery ( twrp or cwm doesn't matter), pick install zip from SD card, go to where you have the nullifire.zip, select it, and hit flash. After its done be sure to restore a nandroid or flash a rom, never power down or reboot without one or the other being done first! Also make sure to have 30% or more battery, or be plugged in before starting.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
its simple. Download the script. then reboot into twrp or cwm then install the script.. once its done then install your chosen rom... wait for it to be done. fix permissions then reboot and enjoy.. super simple and super cool..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BrooksBlood:
Holy crap I'm stupid, if I would've noticed it was a zip I would've known that hahaha sorry guys :-P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
No biggy, I think its a little confusing as its referred to as a script, and generally those are in a zip file, extracted, then run in system, not flashed through recovery.

Tapatalked from my A100 - Flex Reaper RF1.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stage:
Ok, I'm really going to come across as a noob, but what are the benefits to running this? I guess I'm confused to what it actually does.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
The concept to its use is to minimize bugs caused by left over data. The wipe process of cwm and twrp is a format, it deletes the arrows pointing to where data is, but the data remains intact. It allows the system to overwrite the data. Nullifier overwrites the data itself with zeros, making it so no leftover data is there to cause problems later, then formats afterwards for rom use. Essentially leaving a blank slate to read and write from without worries of old data creeping in.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] YaKillaCJ:
OK 1 more noob question. If say I do this and say oops power off or reboot b4 flashing a new rom.

Would I be able to boot into my bootloader and/or recovery?

Gotta ask. I know after this, I can't get into a Tom but does it mess with any other partitions is what I'm asking. I know the risk but just wanna know exactly how risky basicly.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
If I had to say one thing it should have no affect on your recovery partition or your SD card good chance you could still get to recovery without a system I have before but I highly don't recommend trying it. Being that your recovery and your boot loader are still intact when booted you should still be able to reach recovery but after the bootloader you will even more likely come to a black screen. Hold the power down for 30 seconds fully power off then power on this time go straight to recovery but its risky to say the least could brick you!!!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
being that this doesnt nullify boot.. you should be fine to boot back in recovery. It only nullifies cache, data, & system. Although I wouldnt suggest powering down or rebooting after just to be safe.. Its only if we had it set to nullify boot would you be in super trouble and the paper weight making process.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
I think the no reboot or power off advice came from when Volk was first working on this script cwm was throwing errors about /cache because it stores data there. That lead to thinking maybe it could interrupt rebooting into recovery, a better safe then sorry thing. Still not a good idea tempting a brick for no reason.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
actually no it was from nullifing boot... when you in cwm its running in ram.. and when you nullify everything (including boot) and then reboot there is no recovery.img there to be loaded and so your s.o.l for the moment..... so just fyi..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
Ah ok good to know, I just remembered something about cwm throwing errors about the cache being done, so it wouldn't nullify or format something like that. It was quite awhile back when Volk first released it. Never knew it did boot, though.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
yea that was because of ext4 and cache being picky.... but yea ive always been against nullifing boot and I didnt include that in the o2x nullifier I did... but Volk liked it and it was his project to begin with so I wasnt going to tell him how to do things.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] YaKillaCJ:
Ah good to know. So basicly this nullified leaves recovery and bootloader alone.

Hey not that I'm trying to brick it. Just wanna be informed on how much this nullify.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
/data /system /cache leaves restore and boot sections alone. Its safe, just recommended strongly to restore or flash after it runs.

Edit: forgot to say it leaves internal and external SD alone too.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
And btw this utility isn't to be used for every new rom... think of this tool as a clean under the rug cleaning ability.. whereas the HF cleaner is to be used before every flash... In comparison the cleaner is the sweeper that sweeps the stuff under the rug for a 'fresh' basis to flash a rom...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] powerpoint45:
Good job
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
Update to 1.1 Single and Dual passes.

Ok Hell, with Volk's graces i've updated the HF Kindle Nullifier to 1.1 and now there are the options for the download of the single and dual passes. Also I have added a line to copy the log after the nullification is done. It's just something I like to do. Please update the OP since I cant...Gracias! :)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] B3L13V3:
Hey having a little trouble here and don't know how to get a logcat. My problem is I flashed this on twrp followed by a ROM, but before flashing the ROM twrp was giving me a unable to mount /system /data and /cache. Flashed ROM just fine but just shows bootanimation and never boots. I've let it go from full battery to dead trying to boot so I know i waited enough. Also everytime I go back to twrp I get the same errors only excluding /system this time around, any help is greatly appreciated.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
try switching to cwm, twrp isnt supported anymore. but first do a factory reset with twrp.. that should help it.. then of course reflash the rom...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] B3L13V3:
Thank you sir! that worked out just fine, kept twrp just factory rest within recovery and flashed rom all is working as it should :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Волк:
Since I was poking around, I want to clarify a few things.

On this device there is no need to worry about powering off after usage, the issue is that if /boot is wiped and no kernel is present on the system before powering down, something (likely RAM or some other essential component) isn't initialized and the device can't boot. Though, on the nook color there is a CWM for external SD which will boot even if there is no kernel, so I could be wrong and it's just some glitch or 'fail-safe' of most or all devices. The reason for not including /boot is simply because different devices react differently and not all can be easily recovered from that bricked state, or at all. Thankfully the G2x can have a kernel flashed via NVflash and the nook color has a bootloader which looks to external SD and will boot CWM from that even in the absence of a kernel.

Recovery images aren't stored in RAM, once you power off, the data in RAM is lost, if CWM/TWRP were stored in RAM every time you powered off, you'd loose recovery. It's stored on a physical partition on mmcblk0, which partition depends on the device.

The reason Hell released it, not me, is that I'm too tired of the elietism and the noobs who don't read stuff which is written in big, bold letters.

As I've told other people, if you want it ported to a different device, I need a number of people requesting the port and the partition info for data, cache, and system.

Edit: Assuming Pharoah changed nothing but the number of wipes, you shouldn't need to format afterward, I have formatting set in the script.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
Thank you for clarifying some things about this tool Volk, but a couple things. I don't think he meant recovery image is stored in ram, but loaded into ram and so you can wipe or delete the recovery without it impacting the recovery running at the time, which could cause issues on different devices. Mostly someone not reading or paying attention wipes recovery then doesn't install a new one.

As for porting, I didn't think it ever would be, just expressing that I would like to see your tool available on other devices I run, that's all. A vast majority of A100 users don't use a g2x or KF so they won't know to ask for a port if they don't know this tool exists. So, probably the only g2x and KF user that knows of your tool asked about a port to another device that he uses, that's all. I would attempt the port myself but the a100 is one of those easy to brick hard to get back devices.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] pio_masaki:
Everyone has their opinions. What he says makes sense, however I prefer to error on the side of caution. Formatting in recovery does NOT delete data, just the arrows pointing to it. So in a weird way I suppose data berries or whatever he chose to name left over data, do exist. If I didn't believe that would I port nullifier to the a100 and sit for 40 minutes per pass?

Tapatalked from my A100 - Flex Reaper RF1.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
so yea idk about that either. not that I doubt arcee but seriously data is data.. and if doesnt get deleted properly then things get jacked up. believe what you want but I did major research when we did this nullifier project and only bad thing I ever found was bad sectors handling... nada about its pointless and no databerries are left there... its logic for me to understand that a low level format, aka dd in this case, works just as good as any other wipe tool. so its hard to believe this info specially being there is no actual factual data to support thats it no bueno...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Волк:
I just wanted to pop in and ressurect this, even if for a little bit. In a moment of clarity I was looking at the sample AROMA and realized how of works. I have made a release for the G2x which simply combines the single and dual wipes. It's sort of a cross between a development rease and teaser. I could port it over to here, if people are interested.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mthous01:
I'll resurrect this as well. I've had a few Fire's that this has saved from an unending startup. No amount of formatting in CWM or TWRP would work, but running a single pass "nullifire" fixed everything.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BrooklynNY:
Would like to make sure b4 flashing, my kf is running dual boot, so if I flash the single pass zip, it will leave my alt ROM/data alone and wipe only primary ROM/data? And if I flash the dual pass zip then both ROMs/datas/caches will be wiped? And in any case the KF's internal SD card will stay intact, right? Sorry to sound like a noob, but I since I can't make a nandroid of my alt ROM/data (because an alt boot backup recovery software is in the oven), I gotta make sure my alt ROM/data stays there. Thanx in advance!!

Edit on May 7. Waiting for response.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mthous01:
I'm not sure that is the case. This (from my understanding) was developed for a single rom setup. PM the OP about dual boot... but I suspect that YMMV and that they can't be certain that it will reformat things properly.

Did you try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2086652 to back up your alt ROM/data?

[Q] how to install/run?

Hi Guys,

Sorry if noob question, but just want to be sure on how to apply this Nullifier.

(1) Backup....as mentioned in the post

(2) Boot into Recovery (i.e TWRP)

(3) Flash Hellfire_Kindle_Nullifier_1.1_Single_Pass.zip

(4) Flash ROM / Nand backup

Is this correct? thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mthous01:
That's what I did. If you're going this far, back up your SD Card to a PC as well, clean up the folders you don't need anymore and wipe that SD Card. Your external storage partition will thank you.

My sensation was working perfectly till it froze. So i took out the battery to restart it. When i tried putting it on, it just vibrated, screen didn't come on and it kept vibrating in short intervals. I took out battery, SIM card and the SD for some minutes and still didn't work. The phone is not recognized when connected to PC and the LED only lights up for some seconds when connected to a charger. I have 3 tried different batteries and still the phone can't start up. I can't get to bootloader and it is not detected by adb but was detected by fastboot just one time.

Just to add, i updated to ICS and was working perfectly for about a week and my digitizer has been replaced before but that was about 2 month

Pls, how can i get my phone to boot again?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shchiam1978:
Hi

I am pretty much obsessed with battery life.

I have been trying few roms and I have yet to find the perfect one for me.

1) gingerbread 2.3.6 stock rom unroot

Performance wise is so so. Battery life, not what I expected

2) gingerbread 2.3.6 rooted

Tweak the CPU and does see a lot of improvement in battery life.

3) ICS stunner. 19

Great rom but I feel that the battery does drain a lot.

4) ICS cyanofree

Smoother compared to stunner but battery wise is worse than stunner

5) Gingerbread 2.3.6 rooted

Back to gb to see if there's any difference in terms of battery life. Better than the Ics

I do have a lot of my friends who are using the custom ics and their battery life is superb. I don't know why mine is bad.

6) stunner 19

Back to stunner again. Still feel the battery doesn't last. Heart pain when you have to under utilize the phone just to save the juices.

7) litening rom 1.0 (currently using )

awesome even thought that its not as smooth compare to the ics. Battery wise improved a lot but I am still searching for even better one.

Question.

Anyone using speedmod or Franco kernel before and could you share your experience especially the battery life?

By the way. The testing are based on my observation. It may differ from other people.

Appreciate it very much.

My AT&T Status offered me an FOTA update today. I said Yes, and it downloaded, but when the phone restarted it said it couldn't find the update files. It repeatedly tried to restart and reload, with failure each time. I thought I was holding a brick in my hand.

I got things back to normal by removing the SD card and rebooting. It then asked me to reinsert the card and when I did, it offered to download the update again. This time I declined. BTW, my phone is rooted and I suspect this was part of the reason it wouldn't update.

I want the opinions of people out there that ride or walk the trails, or simply like using supportive apps.

Here's the deal. I got tired of riding the same trails around my area, but found it hard to locate other trails.

Because of this I developed an Android Application that allows you to find trails traversed by other riders or walkers.

I uploaded a videos to youtube: youtube.(com)/watch?v=Y_cj4x_6Z18

This is directly from the description: "This app allows you to find popular off road trails where ATV, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, or walkers traverse.

You can broadcast your location so that other users of the app can see where the action is.

The application automatically records your traveled coordinates and publicizes them so that others can find traveled trails

visit VVS Sites for more information"

What do you all think? Would this help you out? (find popular trails, see where the action is)

Perfect! Keep them private as in only phones with specified cell numbers, i.e. 240-555-6789, can view trails posted by a particular device.

So, say a person is recording a new trail. This person can then "send", which really approves, phones with certain numbers or people in his/her contact list.

If you were not approved by said [ :) ] person/phone, then even if you have the app, you cannot view the trail.
