The great devs from the dev section made it they bypassed the bootloader for our x8 device..... and that means we can get the most perfect roms ever..... and all the modules we want....

Greetings.
warning.
if you are not developer, please quit reading that post.
wait for user friendly tool with one big button.
here ( View attachment 712577 ) is toolset to permanently "unlock" semcboot of msm7227 semc phones.
that means, you can use own kernel and so on.
steps,precautions, etc.
unpack archive to any directory.
if you using eset antivirus or similar ****, it will find evil virus in adb.exe.
ignore that, it is not virus in any way, it is standard android debug bridge, bundled in one file to save space and usability.
now, if your phone unlocked officially:
flash phone with standard 2.0,2.1 android firmware,because kernel mapper module compiled for "2.6.29" kernel.
of course, enable "usb debugging"
run msm7227_semc.cmd,
( if you want, examine it before run, it is pretty straightforward. )
you will get similar output
Code:
process requires standard 2.x android firmware.

Second, we need to write semcboot ;)
1130 KB/s (596916 bytes in 0.515s)
successfully wrote 0003ff00
Press any key to continue . . .
bingo, your phone now has unlocked bootloader.
if your phone unlocked by setool2 software, use msm7227_setool2.cmd
if your phone unlocked by 3rd-party software other than setool2, do not run anything -
it will disable radio capability of your phone and you will need to unlock phone by setool2 software.
hopefully, mizerable flea and mOxImKo will release something similar for your phone.
okay, now about other details.
1.
unlocked bootloader require unlocked loader, yep ?
loader\loader.sin is special unlocked loader, which will be accepted ONLY after your "unlock" semcboot with previous steps.
to distinguish unlocked semcboot and original semcboot, first letter in version tag of semcboot output will be lower case, i. e. "r8A029"
( same applies for loader version tag )
so, all that stuff with signatures are not for us, so i removed them - loader will ignore signature part of SIN file.
2.
we should make SIN file somehow, right ?
for that i prepared "dumb" bin2sin utility.
[input] - is input binary file.
[partition info]
android implementation on s1 semc qualcomm phones based on partitions,so we MUST define it for our file.
you can get required partition info from standard semc sin files, it is first 0x10 bytes of DATA, right after header, i.e.
[type] - partition type, 9 - partition without spare, 0xA - partition with spare.
kernel partition is partition without spare.
if that parameter omitted, type = 9
[block size] - nand block size, if omitted, it is standard size 0x20000
there is example in sinTools\example_build.cmd
3.
kernel should be prepared specially to be accepted by semcboot.
for that there is tool bin2elf.
we need 2 segments:
segment 1 is unpacked linux kernel image, i.e.
( e10/kernel/arch/arm/boot/Image )
it looks like entrypoint and load address for segment 1 is always same for all msm7227-based semc phone, it is 0x00208000
attributes for image 0x0
segment 2 is ramdisk.
it looks like entrypoint and load address for segment 1 is always same for all msm7227-based semc phone, it is 0x01000000
set attributes for ramdisk 0x80000000, that is extremly important.
there is simple kernel example in sinTools\example_build.cmd
ps.
@blagus:
NAND MPU disabler has only one relation to rFoNe - he took it from setool2, together with entire idea for msm7227 bypass.
your 6-wings friend with many nicks done exactly same.
NAND MPU has nothing to do with memory firewall, so it will not help with kexec things, however, who will care now.

Synaptics doesnt support two or more fingers just one so even if bl is cracked it wont help. But we will be able to oc GPU for example and also Racht will continue porting sense ROMs to x8.
To be honest, I just don't believe it if the devs don't officially announce.
But synaptic phones like htc legend and nokia n8 support DT. So it might be possible and I 'm not the only one who says that. LOL

THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT SYNAPTICS DIGITIZER!!!!!! Its been explained sooooo many times (by real devs, with documentation from synaptics) that the particular synaptics digitizer that's in our phone doesn't support more than one finger! I don't mean to attack u personally cos I'm sure ur a great guy but it annoys me to see this everywhere.

Not the chips, you could replace the entire dizitizer.. it would work and it's easier
so does this mean major bugs will be eliminated?
what is next? like how do we get benefits of bl?
and btw do we have now new features?
and does this mean better performance and better oc?
if we unlock our bootloader with stock SE 2.1 firmware will we still be able to flash a custom ROM i.e. FroyoBread and still have it unlocked?

Unlocked bootloader is like super superuser. Basically it allows greater changes to your phone like custom kernel etc. So our kernel can be upgraded to a newer version, we can include overclock, underclock, swap, pinch-zoom, mddi fix and other stuff into the kernel, so we don't need modules any more.
So this will make more room on the rom side of thing then?

Has anyone really tried to replace the original bootloader e.g. with one from familiar linux or redboot?
Though I didn't manage any of these loaders execute in RAM I found at least that BootBlaster 3900 from handhelds.org runs on the XDA. I only was not brave enough to click "Flash -> Program" :wink:
BTW: Is it true that Windows boots without a bootloader? I read it in one of the posts.
Thanks in advance

I think it is good you were not brave enough, cause it would have been stupid. Chance is very high you brick your XDA II forever. I have a half ported version of bootldr for XDA I, but haven't even flashed that into it. Never assume that something that works on one pocket pc will work on another. Especially at this low level.
BTW: Is it true that Windows boots without a bootloader? I read it in one of the posts.

It was certainly not on the XDA I. There has been talk that it was the case for iPaqs. I have no idea about the XDA II, but I'm not prepared to test it to find out .
Well, if there is no replacement bootloader at hand, how far could we get using the original bootloader. I would like to boot some linux kernel at least to see what is working and what not.
As far as I can see the l command should do the job. My main questions are:
0. Can I (accidentally) load anything to ROM with l (and thus screw up windows)?
1. Can the bootloader be used to pull an initrd and a linux kernel over USB-Serial to RAM and run it from there?
1.a) How do I address RAM?
2. Does the kernel have to be preprocessed / formatted in any way?
3. How do I actually setup the connection for l to load something from my linux box?
Thanks in advance, I'm looking forward to your replies.

Hi all,
I realize this is a post about a Motorola phone but please bear with me.
As you might know, the Milestone firmware is firmly locked, unlike its cousin Droid. Among many things, this forbids overclocking because we can't change the kernel and unlock new frequencies.
However I developed a solution that allows overclocking by changing key structures directly in the kernel memory in runtime. All you need is a rooted phone; no flashing involved. For this to work, the module must know two memory addresses that are specific to each kernel. Fortunately, Motorola appears to have reused its kernel on most 2.1 firmwares, and I've yet to come across a firmware where it doesn't work by default. Confirmed working are Central Europe, Telus and Brazilian firmwares. Testers are welcome to give it a try.
Now for the relevant part for XDA: in theory this can be applied to any kernel on any other phone. You may say it's unneeded because you can already overclock; but you must flash a specific kernel to get a particular speed. It would be much better to be able to set any maximum frequency/voltage on the fly without flashing or rebooting. For instance, you could overclock to 1.0 GHz before a browsing or gaming session and then return to a lower frequency like 600 MHz, though still overcloked, for battery savings and safety. It's up to you.
Milestone users can try it out now:
http://code.google.com/p/milestone-overclock/
For the rest of you, what do you think?
sounds fantastic, I'd love to check it out but for the life of me I can't find the page.
If you want to pm it to me, I'll post it.

what's the problem with rooting the milestone? There's plenty of solutions for that. Just no custom kernel/ramdisk, which this works around by using a kernel module.
hi,
i use the 2.1-reu version on my milestone,
but in order to prevent the 2.1 introduced alarm bug,
i have updated the kernel (only) to the 2.1-telus

is possible to use this mod to overlock my phone?
how?
if not, how help you to obtain the addresses?

Has the app something like a setting where you can just change the address to the one you found with the method above?

The overclock.ko is created automatically when you press the "Load module" button in /data/data/pt.com.darksun.milestoneoverclock/files/overclock.ko. You don't need to copy it. I'm providing it separately so that people can load/bundle it without ever running the apk.

but in your wiki page says to execute "insmod overclock.ko max_rate=800000 max_vsel=62"
please, provide me instructions to set overclock in boot time
The module created by the apk is preserved across reboots. However, if you want to run the module completely standalone I recommend you put it in /data/local/overclock.ko and run insmod /data/local/overclock.ko max_rate=800000 max_vsel=62

Cool. I'm no programmer but I'll try and get a developer to share the X10 module, and then you can perhaps give it a shot If a developer jumps onboard, it'll be brilliant ofc.
@Others
From what I've heard, this has been done and ought to work. Since you dont need to push a new kernel altogether, that step is bypassed.
If it worked, would it be implemented on official 2.1 only, or could it be ported to non-official roms too?

Its a bit premature to comment on that. First we need to get developers onboard. But once the kernel module is modded, it should work across all ROMs.

it says
"In an attempt to combat those problems ,
symbol versioning data is placed within the
. m o d i n f o section of loadable ELF
modules . This versioning information can
be compared with that of the running
kernel before loading a module ; if the
versions are incompatible , the module will
not be loaded."
Maybe the module can be customized, and the symbol versioning data added, so that the kernel doesn't reject it?
Just a thought. Somebody has managed to.do this for another device. I'll try and get in touch with him.
Check out this thread. Here is where the discussion about such a possibility started:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976948
Background:
My Desire Z is a phone from work, so I guess it's not meant to be fiddled with, but having rooted the other Android devices I have, I was somewhat annoyed that there is nothing similar to the Super One Click for my device.
I have hence produced a front end, that basically does nothing more fancy that proving a GUI front end to existing procedures.
It has two buttons, one for downgrade and one for the rooting.
I use the description (and files) from Cyanomod and I would welcome feedback on the procedures:
Downgrade:
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Desire_Z:_Firmware_Downgrade_(Gingerbread)
Rooting:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Desire_Z:_Rooting
Releases:
0.1 - Initial release - framework established, not fully working
0.2 - Second release - Downgrade works to the point where PC10IMG.zip is to be installed. Returns "CID incorrect!"
0.9 - Public beta - has been proven in battle by working on my phone. If DOES state that it failed rooting due to mismatching MD5 hashes, but they do match and it does work so this is still confusing. Very limited error handling, so you can easily fool it in a gazillion different ways.
Files available:
http://www.bergatrollet.se/root/ (will make something a bit fanizer that the plain dir ;-)
Here you find the distribution package, but also the full source code (Delphi XE2).
Please mind; the distribution package does NOT contain the pack of tools needed. Please feel free to suggest where I can place a 300MB package now that Kimble got bust and megaupload is no longer an option...
The following tools are needed/used:
busybox
embedwpthis.pl
flashgc
fre3vo
gfree
hboot-eng.img
misc_version
PC10IMG.zip
psneuter
recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-vision.img

Correct; automate the two processes of downgrading and of rooting. They are made into two buttons as not everyone would need the downgrade.
I am uploading the two zips to www.bergatrollet.se/root.
The distribution one is quite heavy (300 MB as it contains the old ROM) so I also uypload a version with only the exe file and a reference to the binaries needed.

Quite a few people rooted their phones using Single Click options, and not all of them are lamers.
Fiddling with ADB is IMHO not mandatory knowledge for benefiting from a rooted handset!
That would be awesome if you can do it. I rooted mine quite easily from froyo using scripts or what have you. Visionary for temp root and gfree to finish the job. Abd doesn't work well with this phone.

The only prerequisite is that you need ADB installed, but all the applications needed and packed in the distribution ZIP.
Do you need your env variables set?

You mean like path? All the tools needed are in ./bin/ relative the exe file (regardless of where you put it), so the only part where I see a need is if the adb needs something of the usb drivers...

To keep you updated on the progress:
Downgrader:
- There are differences between the Cyanogenmod downgrader guide and the XDA guide. The XDA one features a gold card thing which seemingly isn't necessary. (Can't anyone explain this in a human language?)
- It fails in the part where the mobile validates the PC10IMG.zip where I get an error on the CID.
Rooter:
- Can't test this until the downgrader works, but it could already be OK ;-)
Will update the stuff on the site in a few hours so please don't pick up the version there just yet as it's the old one.

The best things in life don't come easy
Well, to be honest, I stayed with version 4. 4 gives you the ability to use your own custom bootloader image, and also Fastboot options. Fastboot options are great when you fubar everything else The other versions are only needed if you plan on running a Linux partition for dev work. You can also boot to different kernels, but most users wouldn't need that.
I used Blackthund3r's exe application to get the version 4. Selected bootloader only, do the automatic install. Over and done with in 1 minute without having to install the rom again. (pay no attention to the windows error).
With version 4, you also can do a CWM flash to any future bootloaders, so no need for the NVFlash stuff.
But if version 3 is working ok for you, then hey, let it be. Nothing wrong with it.

That alone makes going to at least 4 worth it in my book (I'm on 6). That way it will make it easier for you in the future in case some other future bootloader stuff comes that you are interested in. Flexibility is good.
Thanks MD , I'll be doing that when I get a chance this weekend!
I got V7 , but I would recommend beeing at least at V4- 0.03.14 version , V5 , V6 and V7 are all variations of that 0.03.14 ICS bootloader.

Exactly. Ver 3, will suit most of all people.
Ver 4, you can change to your own boot logo (within the guidelines of image size).
Ver 4 gives fastboot options. Do you need it? Probably not in most cases. But for me, I believe in overkill.

Don't forget , V3 is 0.03.12 and not 0.03.14 like V4 and up.
well if you look at my signature ,I too believe in "overkill" MD , thats why I asked , just needed clarification on what the newer versions give me, I think Civato needs to change one part of his signature to "dont be a chicken , just do it" , I like that in all his posts !!!
Ok I went with V6 what the hell!!!
