<naobsd> oh I didn't notice this is active http://sourceforge.net/p/rkflashtool/Git/ci/master/tree/
<valdur55> yes. it is.. :)
<valdur55> but i have deeper probem what rkflashtool can`t do
<naobsd> rkflashtool just write data, it doesn't fix any problem except the problem which is fixed by writing data.
<naobsd> oh, it seems Ivo van Poorten ported and tweaked some of my code again...
<naobsd> I have to say sorry because I was lazy, I didn't clean my code for long time ;)
<valdur55> naobsd:
<valdur55> ^^ has your tablet been in maskrom mode?
<naobsd> if bootloader is erased, or nand kill switch is pushed on some device, it goes maskrom mode
<naobsd> but if NAND is fine, new bootloader can be download
<valdur55> ok. bootloader is corrupted.
<valdur55> but rkbatchtool can't dowlead it...
<valdur55> sorry for typos... i am using mobile's keyboard
<naobsd> NAND may be damaged
<naobsd> you may try low level format (not erase by "rkflashtool e")
<valdur55> how?
<naobsd> actually I never try upgrade_tool yet
<naobsd> some Rockchip official tools for Windows are also can do format
<naobsd> but I'm not sure for now
<naobsd> btw
<naobsd> you're using update.img for rk292x, right?
<naobsd> bootloader for other chip cannot be used to download
<valdur55> i used rk29
<naobsd> ah, wait, maybe low level format needs working bootloader :(
<naobsd> rk291x and rk292x is different
<naobsd> rk29[01]x <-> rk292x
<naobsd> "rk29" is used for rk29[01]x
<valdur55> yes. fist issue was with rkbatchtool. i manually edited conf.ini
<naobsd> what issue? generally editing any file is not necesarry
<naobsd> I have rk2826 tablet and I didn't edit any file
<naobsd> which update.img are you using?
<valdur55> don't know anymore...
<valdur55> i lost my track...
<naobsd> well, sorry, I couldn't understand 'lost my track'
<naobsd> when/why your device goes maskrom mode?
<naobsd> and do you have any official update image for your device?
<naobsd> I know some web site (blog/forum/etc) says 'do EraseIDB' even when it's not necesarry
<valdur55> it goes to maskrom mode when i hold ppwr button or connect power plug
<naobsd> it erases bootloader, then you must have bootloader binary which is really working on your device
<naobsd> I asked when problem is started
<valdur55> after eraseidb
<naobsd> then, do you have official update image? please answer my question
<valdur55> no.
<naobsd> do you have bootloader binary for rk292x?
<naobsd> not rk290x nor rk291x
<valdur55> not yet.
<valdur55> i have cwr backup
<naobsd> 'downloading bootloader' must be failed without bootloader binary
<valdur55> or wronly choosed bootloader
<naobsd> CWM doesn't backup bootloader, it cannot be accessed from Linux/Android/anything else
<naobsd> please answer my question
<valdur55> wrongly*
<naobsd> which update.img are you using????
<naobsd> you have(use) wrong image, or you don't have anything?
<naobsd> hm
<naobsd> please ignore my last question
<naobsd> all you need is proper update.img(and/or bootloader binary) for your device
<valdur55> it's like wrong image
<valdur55> for rk29
<naobsd> it's impossible to understand something from 'rk29', 4 chars are too short
<naobsd> I have some RK292xLoader(L)_V1.??.bin
<naobsd> taken from some update.img for some products
<naobsd> I can't guarantee they are compatible
<valdur55> ok. better than nothingg..
<naobsd> wait a min...
<valdur55> my device is goclever tab r140
<naobsd> if official update is not provided, please keep your cwm backup
<valdur55> yes i will. :)
<naobsd> it's just bootloader binary, please use RKAndroidTool or something which accept bootloader binary file
<naobsd> (RKBatch needs update.img form)
<naobsd> v1.22 and v1.24 are included
<naobsd> I have v1.16 and v1.18
<naobsd> I don't know difference
<valdur55> ok.
<valdur55> damn.. it is midnight ...
<valdur55> naobsd: or over that :) 5:28am ( +3 GMT )
<naobsd> good morning :)
<naobsd> probably RKDevelopTool_v1.37 is latest
<naobsd> (very)old driver pack and tool was specialized for some specific chip, but recent one is universal
<naobsd> latest driver/tool is recommended
<valdur55> .37 is latest
<valdur55> damn.. windows terminal.
<naobsd> you may use upgrade_tool on Linux
<valdur55> to late for that :D already booted to win :)
<naobsd> it seems UL/DB/EF sub-command accept loader file
<naobsd> I have no time to try upgrade_tool yet :(
<naobsd> tooooooooooooo busy :(
<valdur55> ok . download finished:)
<naobsd> boot or recovery can be booted now?
<valdur55> need flash recovery then :)
eval- has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
<naobsd> if your recovery.img doesn't include kernel, you need kernel.img too :)
<naobsd> parameter is fine? if you just eraseIDB before erasing/modifying other parts, other parts should be kept fine
<valdur55> bad news. parameters might me also corrupted.
<naobsd> well
<naobsd> probably you used my CWM for RK292x
<valdur55> yes.
<naobsd> it doesn't backup parameter (if I memory is correct)
<naobsd> if you didn't backup by rkflashtool p, you may use parameter for other rk282x device
<valdur55> downloaded from here: http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/
<naobsd> do you have any parameter with 'MACHINE: 2928' ?
eval- has joined #linux-rockchip
<valdur55> found first wirh MACHINE: 2929
<naobsd> it's for RK29[01]x
<naobsd> please wait
<naobsd> some parameter in some product have it's own name in 'MACHINE_MODEL:rk2928sdk', but I'm not sure Android/recovery system refers it or not
<valdur55> original was with rk2928sdk
<naobsd> most RK device uses same or similar partition layout, but you should check partition size
<naobsd> it need to be same or larger than your backup
<naobsd> btw your device is android 4.1? there are(were) few product which is android 4.1 with rk292x
<naobsd> (but my memory is very old)
<valdur55> 4.1.1
<naobsd> googled
<naobsd> it seems there are many(not few) product with 4.1(.1)
<valdur55> goclever tab r104
eval- has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
<naobsd> probably 4.0 was only for old product ;)
<naobsd> anyway
<naobsd> I think you can restore your backup with bootloader, parameter and recovery(and maybe kernel)
<naobsd> sorry, I can't understand ru-lang...
<valdur55> me to :(
<naobsd> I can't find 'interesting' part :(
<naobsd> it seems he erased nand without backup/official update
<valdur55> RK292X_ANDROID 4.1.1-SDK-v.1.00.01
<valdur55> ok. got back to recovery mode.
eval- has joined #linux-rockchip
<naobsd> update for other rk2928 product may work in some case but it will have some problem (it will work fine on name-is-different-but-same-hardware)
<naobsd> hmm, some update files for some product I collected around '13 Apr, doesn't have info about SDK version
<naobsd> (and I noticed I confused Android ver. about RK292x and RK281x. 4.1 should be major for RK292x... 4.0 is for RK291x)
<naobsd> errr, "Android ver. about RK292x and _RK291x_"
<naobsd> RK products with same chip are very similar, update for another product may work fine if you replace kernel and some other files from your device
<naobsd> (some information like "if wifi is same, firmware is compatible" is basically wrong)
<valdur55> android userland is full of windows users...
<naobsd> btw
<naobsd> I don't have RK282x product which has UART pins/holes for serial console
<naobsd> your tablet has it?
<valdur55> dunno... it have reset button
<naobsd> I see, thanks
<naobsd> can you restore your tablet?
<naobsd> well, sorry
<naobsd> restore can be done?
<naobsd> well
<naobsd> I just wanted to ask 'finished w/o problem'
<naobsd> english is difficult ;)
<naobsd> (or my brain is too poor)
<naobsd> needs upgrade file
<naobsd> to naobsd 2.0
<naobsd> hm
<valdur55> :) yep. i loaded into recovery mode... now ican use rkflashtool
<valdur55> system is system.tart.a
<naobsd> (my not-latest)cwm makes tar format for ext[34] partitions
<naobsd> and splitted into some files because of FAT(32) limit
<naobsd> (I want to update my CWM for RK)
<naobsd> you may flash backup files with rkflashtool if it's raw partition e.g. boot, recovery, kernel
<naobsd> you should use restore function on CWM if it's ext[34] partition
<valdur55> :) system.ext4.tar.a
<naobsd> you may use cat and tar command on shell for tar backups
<valdur55> or dd
<naobsd> but you can't use rkflashtool and dd for tar backups to write to nand
<naobsd> you have to mount partition, then extract tar file
<naobsd> CWM restore does it
<naobsd> you may need mkfs before mounting
<naobsd> I recommend to use CWM to restore
<naobsd> after restore(flash) recovery with rkflashtool
<valdur55> loader, parameter, kernel and recovery flashed with rkadnroidtool
<naobsd> it should be ok, of course.
<valdur55> and it doesn't make /sdcard or /exernal_sdcard ...
<valdur55> so.. i can't use external_sdcard....
<naobsd> well, on CWM?
<valdur55> yes.
<naobsd> well, / is on ramdisk, directories under / should be made while booting
<naobsd> I forgot config of my CWM
<naobsd> maybe I used /sdcard for external one...
<naobsd> hmm, /sdcard for internal, /external_sd for external
<naobsd> anyway, they should be made on boot
<naobsd> is there any problem to restore your backup with my cwm?
<valdur55> :D no /external_sd so can't access to backup
<valdur55> oh damn.. "no files found"
<valdur55> ok... other issue ...
<naobsd> strange, is there no 'mkdir /external_sd' line in /init.rc in my CWM?
<naobsd> I'l check it
<valdur55> no... just "no files found"
<valdur55> i have moved my folder
<naobsd> hmmm
<naobsd> what files are saved in your folder?
<naobsd> mkdir /external_sd exist, checked
<naobsd> do you use menu item like 'restore from external sd'?
<naobsd> non-external one is for internal storage
<naobsd> if you can see folder like clockworkmod/backup, SD card is mounted
<valdur55> ok. i have remove this folder from sdcard :D going to linux
<naobsd> well
<naobsd> sorry, I'm not sure your current condition, and I have to do other things
<naobsd> I hope you can restore your backup
<valdur55> don't worry...
<valdur55> giving right loader was enought :)
<naobsd> I see
<valdur55> thank you!
<valdur55> ok. started restore... i needed restart cwm after storing my files.

<drynish> Hello... I read here https://github.com/aloksinha2001/Linux3188/issues/23 that someone was able to create a kernel with the latest Rockchip SDK Kernel for an MK908...
<drynish> Is there any way I could retrieve that person and get the kernel?
gunthi has joined #linux-rockchip
<drynish> No answer... so I'll try to compile it myself :)
