[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
Hello All,

I'm working on porting KexecBoot, the kernel-based graphical bootloader to the A500. While we already have a wonderful multiboot bootloader, it's fairly limited. Being able to load up a Linux environment before booting into another kernel allows us to mount virtually any sort of filesystem, boot images from a networked drive, and change boot configurations by just editing a text file. Nothing really "works" as of right now, but hopefully something cool will come of this. I'll clean up this post once I get the kexec kernel to boot properly.

Changelog:

14Nov2014

ext4 detection and boot.cfg loadable from data partition!

Initial touch control working, no keyboard needed!

Fixed up graphical errors. No more random black streaks of debug on screen.

Initial release

Crappy proof-of-concept. Nothing works.

To Do:

Boot Android from kexec-enabled kernel

Boot kernel from USB

Current Version

kexecboot-picasso-14Nov2014.img

Original, crappy demo:

kexecboot-poc.img

Just run:

fastboot boot kexecboot-picasso-14Nov2014.img

Kernel Source (Thanks digetex!)

Excellent!! - Mr. burns (Simpsons)

Can't wait to see this working. I have a Nexus 7 using MultiRom, really cool. So something like that for our A500's is going to be awesome. Wish I knew more about developing to help you out.

Have safe and merry holiday.
[Acer Iconia A500] HasH_BrowN:
Need a Guinea pig?

Will do some testing for you if needed. Just let me know what I can do to help this venture out. I have V8 bootloader right now.
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
I'll be posting all updates publicly, so you'll be able to test things out as soon as they're released. My Uni courseload is a bit heavy this semester, which has slowed development down significantly. I'm still working on things though, don't worry.
[Acer Iconia A500] HasH_BrowN:
Not a problem, I'm just looking forward to this. This is a big leap for our tablets. What limits will be set on how many ROMs can be installed side-by-side? (Secondaries would be ramdisk?).

Thanks for the fast reply.
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
Eh, not really. The current Alt bootloader already supports booting multiple kernels. This is nothing more than a way to achieve the same goal through kexec, with the possibility of booting images from extsd.
[Acer Iconia A500] HasH_BrowN:
But with V8/V9 boot loader you can only have 2 OS's installed. With kexec MultiRom on the N7 the limit on how many ROMs would be how much storage space you have. I've had 14 ROMs installed at one time (for testing purposes).

While the V8/9 boot loader is good, it still has its limitations; I am absolutely in no way putting down the developers work. The interface can be daunting to some, where a GUI would be inviting and end-user friendly (to me it isn't relevant what interface it has). The ability to have more than just those 2 ROMs, that would be the icing on the cake.
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
The v9 bootloader can boot as many different kernel + initrd combos as we want. There's no limit in the amount of things it can boot. Even though they're both based on kexec, I am not porting MultiRom to the A500. I'm just getting a kernel-based bootloader up and running.
[Acer Iconia A500] HasH_BrowN:
Glad to hear, I was hoping you weren't just going to port multirom. So I'll just wait to see what you do with this. Take your time with classes, enjoy it. I will keep checking this thread for updates. Thanks

Ok. So. I am looking to flash an AOSP ROM on my Note along with updated modem, new kernel, and gapps. However. after I've downloaded all my zips and rebooted into Recovery, I cant find my files. They are just gone. Like they were never there. I make sure to put them on the root directory of my storage. I've also tried re installing TWRP as I thought it might be an issue with the recovery .img

But no luck.

So Any thoughts?

im interested to buy the lg g3.. but if you sell it.. why are you sell it up? what would be the next phone?
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
I've been wanting to trade to a Nexus 5 actually. There's just a couple of things about my G3 that bug me.
[Sprint LG G3] zikario507:
why do you sell it?
[Sprint LG G3] Will32:
I planned on selling g3 to get n6. I have since changed my mind. Too many lg features i love about the g3 that id hate to lose, such as quick memo, cliptray, ir port. Plus we're likely to get lollipop very soon.

The longer i keep the g3, the more attached i get to it.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
I bought the G3 about 6 weeks ago, and at that time I didn't see anything else I liked better. The GS5 was in the running, if only it wasn't so ugly. But nothing that's been released since then has changed my mind. The Nexus 6 is just too big, and the reviews of it haven't been all that stellar.

But all of the premium phones have plusses and minuses, so whether the G3 is the best choice for you depends on what's important to you. I think the GS5 has a better screen overall, the HTC One has better sound, etc.
[Sprint LG G3] mrvoodoodaddy69:
I researched phones for months before I decided on the G3, and I am glad I waited. The Nexus 6 was a strong contender but it doesn't have an IR port and in my house either the remote is lost or somebody took the batteries to put in a x-box controller. The specs on the phone was the other selling point. I figured if I hated the LG UI i could always load a custom ROM. I have been using it for about 6 weeks now and I actually like it right out of the box of course the added bloatware sux, but I wanted to see what I thought before I changed anything. so far so good, and battery life is great. I wouldn't trade it for anything else at the moment.

This. Coming from a GS3, I thought the first thing I'd do is get rid of stock but now I'm wondering if I won't stay on stock once AOSP Roms start coming

just got a small ota today... what was it?

Stock note 2, (no longer rooted/aosp'd). It is up to date with 4.4.2. Now... last night I did a full factory reset, but I do those anyway every other month or so, just to keep things tight and fresh.

I can't tell a thing that this ota did.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gtalum:
I got it too, though I haven't applied it. I'm rooted and running a custom kernel and Clockworkmod recovery, so I was surprised to see the update come through. Now I guess I'll have to look at that stupid icon until my Nexus 6 arrives, as I don't dare apply it and risk losing root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] braddman:
DO NOT apply this update until someone who knows what they're doing tells us what it is. It's 93mb, and after I applied it on 4.4.2 rooted, I couldn't get past the Galaxy Note II screen. It would freeze at a black screen after that. I had to apply the 4.4.2 firmware again to get the phone to boot. After it booted and i was completely unrooted, I tried the OTA update again, same result, it wouldn't boot past the Galaxy Note II logo screen, just went black and froze, so again I flashed 4.4.2 and rooted the phone.

Not sure why it wouldn't flash when I was unrooted but maybe it has something to do with KNOX being disabled on my phone from SuperSU.

Forgot to say after that I completely disabled the ability for the phone to update. It actually did it without my permission which pissed me off.

[General Questions and Answers] Kings_County:
First I'd like to say excuse my ignorance. So my note 3 was lagging bad after the update to the newest software so I decided to root my device. Not running a custom rom or anything but the main reason I did so was to be able to set my cpu to certain frequencies. So I have done the root. And have tried multiple app from no frills to trickster mod. But each one I have. It will not let me change the frequency above 1497600 mhz. Each time I click on save no matter what frequency above that one it always reverts to 1497600. I use xposed installer and thought I found a module to fix it (dvsf disabler) but if that is what fixes it ive still had no luck. The phone doesnt run horrible but there is a little bit of lag. Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I coukd fix this?
[General Questions and Answers] Kings_County:
Anyone have any idea? If this is posted in the wrong forum please let me know, I'm just looking for a way around this.
[General Questions and Answers] rubyist:
If your CPU frequency is anywhere close to 1,497,600 MHz, I would like to have a word with the laws of physics, and inform it that it is broken. Simply put, there is a limit on how high your CPU can be clocked before it becomes hot as hell and unstable. The highest clock speed I have even heard of a CPU reaching is around 7,000 MHz, which was a very highly overclocked Pentium 4. Newer high end x86_64 CPUs generally don't tend to get overclocked to much higher than 4,000-5,000 MHz, although they are much more efficient with those cycles than a P4, and have the advantage of hyperthreading. Your phone's CPU honestly shouldn't be clocked higher than 3,000 MHz, and if it's a rather weak CPU, it might not even be able to be overclocked to higher than 2,000 MHz.

Or is it perhaps the case that you meant to say your CPU is clocked at 1,497.6 MHz (decimals are important!), and it won't go higher, because as I have just mentioned, there is a limit to how high you can go?
[General Questions and Answers] Kings_County:
Basically 1.4 ghz. There have been people overclocking at way above that as the cpu is supposed to be around 2.3ghz.
