[HD2 Android SD Development] datagr:
nativeSDMultiBoot Version 10

Hello all,

Here is the latest version 10 of the app.

Change log :

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 10 :

Fixed : Small aesthetic changes

Added : Website button

Added : Backup nativeSD rom

Added : Restore nativeSD rom

To backup a rom, click [Backup rom] then click a rom that you wish to backup.

The app will create sdcard/RomBackups/toEXT4/rom_name/rom_name.ext4.tar

and sdcard/romBackups/toSD/rom_name.ext4.tar files.

These are your backup that you can save them anywhere before you do any tests. :)

To restore a backed up rom, click [Backup rom] then click [Restore].

You will see that the app is switched in [RESTORE MODE].

In [RESTORE MODE] click a rom that you see in the list.

(Note that you must NOT change anything in sdcard/RomBackups folder.

If you changed anything from there then you must put the files and folders as they were,

before you enter again in the app and restore or backup any rom.)

PLEASE READ THIS

:

You must NOT touch the app while backup or restore operations.

It will be unresponsive during the operations

(You can use a debugger to see what is the app compressing or decompressing).

Enjoy the app and please hit the thanks button (yes, it's still free!) :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 9 :

Changed : no need the rom_name.txt method anymore. (requested by Tytung)

Added : Thanks to the guidance from securecrt now the app is getting the name through linux shell command.

Changed : colored text to [Switch rom] section. Blue color means the current running rom.

Added: Tabs in switch and delete sections for bigger buttons and more beautiful interface.

Changed : improved performance of the app (I hope it's ok now Szczepanik :) )

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 8 :

Fixed : [Delete rom] section that was messed up from a bug that I found and now it is ok.

Added : colored text to [Switch rom] section. Cyan color means the current running rom(or the latest clicked rom).

Added : rom name in the [Tools] section so you will know in which rom the changes will be applied.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 7 :

App supports switching and deleting up to 18 nativeSD roms.

App will read from /proc/self/mountinfo the rom name and compare it with the rom_name.txt

that is automatically created in sdcard/nativeSD folder.

If the name matches, then it will enable the [Delete] and [Tools] buttons.

If not it will hide those 2 buttons to avoid any mistakes.

Also some small bugs have been fixed from previous versions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 6 :

Added : fix permissions in nativeSD roms

Added : clear Dalvik cache in nativeSD roms

Added : kernel update(*) for nativeSD ONLY roms (thank you master Tytung for the guidance)

(*) How to update kernel :

1) Download the zip file of the kernel (tytung 3.5 and securecrt 24Sep2012 kernels work perfect)

2) Rename it to [update.zip] and put it in the sdcard/nativeSD folder

3) Run the nativeSDmultiboot app and click [Switch] -> click your current running rom -> [Back] -> [Tools] -> [Update kernel]

4) Reboot IMMEDIATELY! (this is really important to avoid any force closes...)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 5 :

Now CLK users can use this app to switch roms! (You must put [mkbootimg.sh] and [mkbootimg]

from [flash_sboot_v2.zip] inside the folder sdcard/nativeSD/)

The interface has been changed also.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 4 :

On first enter please click on the rom that you are running now! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

It will create a rom_name.txt inside the nativeSD folder with the name that you are running (thanks for idea securecrt).

I have also added the delete function with confirmation message (requested by Xylograph).

It will hide the rom that you are currently running to avoid any mistakes (requested by securecrt).

P.S. All fellows developers are free to include it in your nativeSD roms. :)
