Just finished making an update zip of 107k4 stock.... This is via Android kitchen, PLEASE NOTE: I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE, I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT WILL WORK!!

Anyhow, I'm uploading now will post link if anyone cares to try it

[Finless]

OK FYI guys. I don't have the R89 yet but I do have the HPH box.
I was able to flash the 107K4 ROM to the HPH box and all works!

So this means it should also work the other way around
e.g. my finless 1.0 ROM for the HPH will work on the R89!
FYI R89 ROM is missing features like brightness and contrast adjust in display settings. My HPH 1.0 ROM has those.

no_spam, I have been trying to make a update.zip but no go!
I keep getting invalid package.
I have made 3188 update.zip files no problem! So RK changed something wither with the keys they used to sign zips, or the update binary in META-INF from 3188 will not work on 3288.

I have not tried it by booting into recovery I have just been using the built in update (it sees when update.zip is on sdcard and asks if you want to install it). This always worked on 3188.

Anyway, if you make any update.zip progress let me know but I have a feeling we need Oman to give us the keys or META-INF folder for 3288.

ADB

I) What you need:
1. USB-Driver via Moborobo (http://www.moborobo.com/)
(BTW: needs internet connection to install driver AND keeps USB-drivers after uninstall)
2. ADB by neomode (http://www.freak-tab.de/neomode/adb.zip)


II) Prepare system(s):
1. Setup android
I've these settings in android
Settings -> [DEVICE] USB -> Enable Connect to PC
Settings -> [PERSONAL] Security -> Enable Unknown Sources
Settings -> [SYSTEM] Developer options -> Enable USB debugging
1a. Unplug power

2. Install USB-Driver via Moborobo
2a. Connect device via micro-USB-cable at OTG-Port at the device with your PC
2b. Plug power to your device (starts up automatically)
(2c. uninstall Moborobo)

STOCK ROM

Untouched stock rom 106k4 dump (at R89 2GB/8GB AP6210)
(Done before starting the system; first start up directly to 'boot loader mode')
'All in one' with configured 'RKAndroidTools v2.3' => you only have to press [Run] (and to have to wait )
I also include the ReadMe by Finless (THX Bob) how to dump and the meaning of the partitions.
Partitions: parameter, uboot, misc, resource, kernel, boot, recovery, backup, cache, kpanic, system, metadata, userdata, radical_update
BTW: 106k4 IMG only contains misc, resource, boot, recovery, system(also 107k4)
=> http://www.file-upload.net/download-....dump.zip.html
download via this symbol at the download-link =>

I also generated a 'All in one' for
recovery_TWRP (2.7.1.0)
(http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...tible-with-R89)
=> http://www.file-upload.net/download-..._TWRP.zip.html
and
recovery_stock (106k4)
=> http://www.file-upload.net/download-...stock.zip.html
(107k4 recovery.img http://www.file-upload.net/download-...107k4.zip.html)
BTW: keyboard at recovery FLOP (also M1, only IR which I don't get , I found one with working up/down but NOT [ok], hmmmm, aaaah, power on/off reacts as [ok] )


Reboot_v1.2.2.apk is nearly a MUST to have

Next step: I will try to build update.zip versions for using by stock-recovery...

Just throwing that out there, connecting the R89 works more reliably if I do it this way:

- Connect the OTG cable to computer and R89
- Press the Button in the AV connector
- Plug in the PSU

The timeframe in which you have to connect the OTG cable (Or press the button) seems to be pretty tight, so -for me- it works more often (->all the time) if I reverse the order that Oman gave.

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried three times, but still would not connect.

He just recently updated his first post

Did you have any luck? I shorted the tiny, tiny holes , but still did not work

Ok, thanks, I must have missed that suggestion. Where did he mention that??

but thanks, will give it a try.

As Oman suggested Instead of pressing reset button before connecting USB to PC, short those points by something like this


thats it... you can install the new FW after PC (android tool)detects the R89 box ...

TMx, can you clarify a little more, thanks

[oman]

The version number in MBXSetting are wrong...

In the original setting is right..

Next time we will correct it..

Do you have any other feedback about R89?
