MID7024 "Official" and Custom ROMs

Seems prox32 has deleted all links to his firmware and is now charging money for it

So I no longer feel right basing my ROM on it.

The next ROM I cook will be based on the Alldro2 2.3 firmware.

idea, prox32 states that the evo firmware is based on fonix232's phoenix mod which is still there.
[ROM] PhoenixMod - SlateDroid.com
i read that fonix232 got a asus tablet and thoroughly sick and tired of urbetter garbage, so he moved on.
i have some honest opinions from reading those threads over there on statedroid a month or so ago. it was interesting to read. in a nutshell, prox32 is a super tweaker, over and over. UOT kitchen to the rescue. but he is not a modder - who was fonix232. prox32 had a 3G bug driving him nuts and a brazilian jolo ? fixed the bug for him. and jolo is given credit. the static wifi address was trouble and a jean lady made a dynamic one to fix it. so ! you steev are a fonix232 level and type of a person. prox32 should be working for you.
oh, and i read yesterday that tuen still has the firmware files. or he did... i'll go check... yes they are there...

yep..actually im going to take down the one i shared yesterday which is based on his genesis mod which is "phoenix+tweaks"

Alldro2 2.3 release is actually a newer build of gingerbread than evo or genesis 805...

Well I don't know about that, but thanks

Hmm I'll consider using Phoenixmod as a base, or at least get some ideas from it.

Thanks for the link.

@lfom:

That's what I'm thinking also

@Mystic:

The attached utscript.sh will display the nand size during installation.

On mine it says, "nand size: 128MB"
Can you try it and tell me if yours is different?

If it says, "no nand flash found" then you don't have a NAND

@steev

Sorry for the delayed reply; finally got the chance to try the above file, and guess what? It reports "nand size: 128MB" just like yours! So I guess that means that it does have a working NAND after all, and we've still got the mystery...

"Can i upgrade the dropad right-away ? "

"I would say as long as its already running gingerbread you can go straight to a custom firmware, but if it isn't running gingerbread then flash a stock 2.3 ROM and then move to the custom firmware. I know that the formatting process which happens when flashing erases everything, so why do you need to update to 2.3 first? Well I don't actually understand it but I have flashed from 2.2 to one of my custom ROMs to find out that none of the drivers worked. Turned out I needed to downgrade and upgrade again and it worked, no idea but hey! "

here is some additional 'new' stock gingerbread firmware. . Here is a stock firmware 0922 for Haipad M7X.

Friend, I have an 8GB internal card. Could you help me modify the script of "Evolution MOD v2" for my Kyros came to have 2GB for applications?

See ya!

Search for "SIZE_DATA=1024" and change it to 2048

I'm working on a new utscript.sh based on the PhoenixMOD upgrade system.
It will include a simple program to change the size of the data partition.

I will change with "DEV- C++". Can it be?

The new utscript.sh based on the PhoenixMOD is better?

Yeah that should work.

The new utscript will be better, but it's not finished yet.

that is simply not true that you need to upgrade to stock 2.3 then cfw...cfw and stock firmware are both 2.3 in the first place... he just made a mistake

imho, there is 'something' going on with the update process that we don't understand yet. i remember i came up bad / non-functioning and it scared the crap out of me. thankfully a power off re-boot let it come up okay. that was my first.

 

[steev]

Hmm just noticed a bug in prox32's evo ROM

In update/mbr there is a file named "4g.dat".
This is incorrect, because the file it tries to write is named "4gb.dat:

dd if=/mnt/mmc/update/mbr/4gb.dat of=/dev/mmcblk0

4gb.dat does not exist, so the partition table is unchanged on 4GB tablets.

That explains why I had a small data partition after upgrading from the stock froyo.

 

[flxrms]

All his release have that bug..

 

[steev]

PhoenixMOD has it too.

Guess that's where they inherited it from.
