Re: I have a bigger problem...

I don't know about Australia, but certainly there is the recent 1.72 from O2 UK. I have uploaded it

here

.

Basically, if you are able to save your current settings for GPRS, etc then you could re-apply them after an upgrade. Or they may be available for you on the provider's website.

Thanks - I guess anything is better than bootldr. Downloading Xda_II_172187_Final.zip and will follow your instructions religiously. Fingers crossed. (Seems like a long way round just to get Bluetooth GPS working :)).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorDbx:
Hi there, long time reader, first time contributor.

[Edit: Sorry I just read this should go in Q&A and I do apologise. Can a moderator please move if appropriate?]

I'm hoping some of you on this forum can help me with a Rockchip 3066 TV Box I am working with. The situation is thus:

I have a number of these boxes, 12 in my possession currently with more on the way

I have successfully rooted the boxes through ADB, none of the one click or other methods worked, but rooting through ADB did.

I have tried using rkdump but unfortunately it cannot find the update.img which I assume to mean it doesn't have one.

What I would like to do is setup a box exactly how I want and then image this off and copy the image to the others

As I mentioned, even though it's a Rockhip based chipset, there's no way I can identify to extract any kind of update.img from it. I have seen through other postings that some of the 3066 based boards no longer use the same cramfs file header/structure the previous 2xxx chipset used so this is probably why.

The big thing is, I just want to mirror the setup to other hardware of exactly the same pedigree.

Here is the MTD/partition map:

1|root@android:/dev # cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00400000 00004000 "misc"
mtd1: 00800000 00004000 "kernel"
mtd2: 01000000 00004000 "boot"
mtd3: 01000000 00004000 "recovery"
mtd4: 18000000 00004000 "backup"
mtd5: 08000000 00004000 "cache"
mtd6: 40000000 00004000 "userdata"
mtd7: 00400000 00004000 "kpanic"
mtd8: 20000000 00004000 "system"
mtd9: 6ac00000 00004000 "user"

My thoughts are I could just dd off the partition to the sd card, and dd this back onto the other devices. I could write a shell script easy enough that could do all this, but obviously trial and error could be an expensive process if I start bricking boxes.

So a couple of questions:

Would the DD thing work?

If so which MTD partition(s) should I dd off

any ideas on what the precise format of the copy to and from commands should be assuming this is the way to go about it?

Is this the wrong way to go about it? Are there better suggestions / ways of achieving this i.e. mirroring devices?

There's a number of applications that ship on the box by default too I need to remove as root, and I'd like to automate everything, hence the idea of imaging as opposed to stepping through all the tasks manually.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolet:
Use rkdump to dump kernel, boot and recovery (use /dev/block/mtdblock# as an argument), dd'ing system partition should work, but i wouldn't suggest it because it can be modified during creating dump, and this may corrupts image , so its better to copy all files from system using adb and then create ext4 image using make_ext4fs.

After you done use RKAndroidTool to flash dumped images to your device :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorDbx:
Thanks very much for your reply, unfortunately rkdump cannot find the boot and recovery.img in any of the mtdblocks, only kernel.img. I had read this is because of the FS Rk3066 uses for some images.

Hence the DD route.... but as you said, there is a possibility of corruption.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolet:
You can dd boot & recovery image safely, then strip 0xFF in hex editor from end if you need lower size of images. Try my tool I attached.Type:

"dump.bat info", to get partition structure you will need later to flash the images, then

"dump.bat recovery o",

"dump.bat kernel",

"dump.bat boot o",

"dump.bat system"

Good luck.
[HTC Droid DNA] Byohnk:
I had a few problems with my DNA it kept going into "Car Mode" not a car docking or dock mode. Anyways it would put my homescreen into landscape. Which is exactly what I wanted for my car. I believe the phone was thinking it was being connected to a certain device that would put it into this mode. So is there any way I can get my homescreen into landscape without the HTC's car docking feature. You can't use Google Music with it.

I just flashed Faux123's first release for the note 2. I was a big fan of his with my Sensation back in the day with Intellidemand. His intelliplug is a new feature and I'm having trouble finding what exactly it does. Any links or help would be most excellent.

TIA - Vin

Found it in his dev thread

Intelli_plug is a total replacement for Qualcomm's proprietary mpdecsion.

it hotplug/unplug cpu cores based on load demand of the system.

mpdecision is a closed source proprietary solution from Qualcomm and it's not very efficient at hotplug/unplug cpu cores leading to hotter cpu and poor battery. My intelliplug is a complete OPEN Source solution to mpdecision and it is done in kernel instead of userspace (which it has to poll the kernel in order to make its decisions therefore inherently slower than in kernel solution like intelliplug).

[Nexus 10 General] another581:
I bought the Nexus 10 32GB out of curiosity last week, unlocked it and installed AOKP And all the goodies, but now I ended up not even thinking about using it for anything.

I have been using the HTC DNA since it was released, so I wasn't impressed by the N10's screen quality but not disappointed either. For the first few hours, I thought it would replace my laptop but I found myself using my ASUS Zenbook more so than N10 or the DNA. It's not because the N10 Doesn't have any practical utilities, but rather because my laptop do things far more better. Also, I just can't figure out how to comfortably hold the tablet. I thought of buying a case with a built-in stand, but I figured that it would be more convenient to just carry my laptop around instead.

So I'm about to sell my N10 but I just wanted to know how you guys utilize it before I do.
[Nexus 10 General] michael_ta315:
ehhh :eek: that's based on your usage really :rolleyes: I like to go out and travel a lot, I'm an amateur photographer and i also do vfx stuffs so my laptop is pretty bulky. I only use it when I have to. Other than that when I go out for coffee or photo day I usually carry my nexus 10 and otg usb so I could view them in a bigger screen and sort out what I don't need or need. I also use my nex during relax for youtube, web surfing...etc, I also found myself using it for a recipe in cooking lol :silly: and yes it is not as practical as a laptop :rolleyes: but I use it because of portability. But maybe it's not for you since you have the Zenbook :silly:
[Nexus 10 General] oysteivi:
In addition to checking bookmarked news sites and social networks, I use the kindle and comixology apps (the latter mainly for marvel comics). For reading, I find the N10 superior to a laptop, and for web it's most of the time only slightly inferior (except when you're thrown into an ugly mobile site designed for 3" screens).

As for holding it, I slouch with my feet on the table and find I can keep the N10 at a usable angle and distance by dropping it in my lap. You may want to experiment with various couches/tables to find your ideal position ;)

I'm a unix system administrator by profession, and I wouldn't ever consider using the N10 for work. I still have my cheapo laptop with linux for when I need to work from home.
[Nexus 10 General] CWalkop:
I use my Nexus 10 for a variety of things, but mainly for reading, gaming, communication through apps like Hangouts, Voxer, and others, and study. I use EZPDF for annotation, best annotator out there. I also use it for music, since the speakers are quite loud. I also use it to time my efforts in volunteer work and record any necessary information (Ministry Assistant), and more. I've been trying to find more uses for it myself, I've only owned it for a week now. Best Android tablet I've used, for sure!
[Nexus 10 General] mustbepbs:

[Nexus 10 General] Carter0108:
I found that whenever I owned a laptop it would always sit in one place plugged in constantly. I now stick with a more powerful and more reliable desktop and have a Nexus for when I go out and about since they're much more portable.
[Nexus 10 General] danielsf:
I'm at university studying computer science. I use it all the time to type notes and read pdf versions of the numerous textbooks I need, so saves a huge amount of space and weight in my bag. I also use it a lot for the web, like if I'm on a site that requires a lot of reading, I'll often load it up on my tablet even if I'm on it on my laptop just to read it, just because the screen is so much easier to read off for me than my laptops. I use my n10 a lot and it's possibly the best thing I have bought in years, the 10 inch tab fits in my life perfectly. Although I am used to the 10 inch form factor as I had the galaxy tab 10.1 for a year before I got the nexus 10 and 7.

I also have the nexus 4 and the nexus 7. The nexus 7 I mainly use as a ebook reader, to play some games that are awkward on a 4.7 and 10.05 inch screen. Also use it a lot between the large amount of time it takes to charge my n10 up :)
[Nexus 10 General] SilentGaia:
I do the same as the person above. Also use it for reading books in general, my friends steal it to play games, and it's useful for long car rides even without internet.

Only problem is, is that I am too lazy to figure out how to compile my programming assignments on my Nexus 10 :/
[Nexus 10 General] abejoker:
Is there a way to connect my phone with my Nexus 10 besides Bluetooth? Like, if I get a text message or a whats app message on my phone, I could see it on my N10?

[Nexus 10 General] espionage724:
I generally don't really use mine at home unless my Desktop is in some kind of inoperable state (I used my N10 earlier to look up some info on a few BIOS settings for my Desktop). If I hear a notification go off, I usually go to my N4, or just minimize the game I'm playing on my Desktop and check Gmail.

I'd love to get some more use out of my N10, just need to figure out how... lol

I gave up my PC when I bought my nexus 10 so I use it for everything. Most days I just use it for the basic email, news (while on the toilet :P ), calendar, phone. I have a galaxy nexus but when I'm home I usually just use hangouts,Facebook, or Skype for calls off my tablet.

Its also my Netflix, hooked up to a TV. I went through 3 HDMI cables before I found one that worked on the nexus 10. For some reason it's picky.

Torrents, I have a wifi external HD I use to back things up.

I really want to add a Bluetooth speaker but I spent too much money on my Bose back when I had iPhone 3gs. Now I have to suffer with it.
