CyanogenMod (froyo) for Scroll tablet

[fun]

I've made CyanogenMod port for Scroll tablet.
you can download from here: http://teamtelechips.naobsd.org/experimental/20101212/
please download Scroll-fixpack.zip, Scroll.zip, recovery.Scroll.img.zip, and system.img.zip.

please forget everything about CyanogenMod for CherryPad/NanoPad. it is for CherryPad/NanoPad. it is NOT for Scroll tablet.

instructions

0. pull /data/softmac from official eclair environment
e.g. adb pull /data/softmac

2. reboot recovery and make backup

3. prepare to install(restore) CyanogenMod images
make new backup directory in SD card. e.g. /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/CyanogenMod
unzip Scroll.zip and system.img.zip. copy all 3 files(boot.img, system.img, and nandroid.md5) into above directory.

4. reboot recovery and restore CyanogenMod images

this is based on my CyanogenMod port for telechips tablets, built at 20101212 from froyo-stable branch.
kernel and modules are taken from update.zip version 1.02 from Storage Options.

my (team telechips) CyanogenMod port is still in development. many issues are exist. please don't use if you want stable, well supported, well documented, production quality software.

dont know if basing parts of 1.02 is a good idea as that has no working touchscreen (for the ones of us who have tested anyway) so if you are using those module for this it wont work.
Same question as My pm btw how are you building the boot.img? I know android etc are open source and you can build your own thats the point. but boot.img is (meant to be) specific to each device/os revision so you have to build it for that device on its own.

I don't have Scroll tablet. I don't know anything about Scroll tablet and firmware versions.
What I have is, only one file, update.zip version 1.02 from Storage Options.

OK, 1.02 will not work. then, what do you want? working CM image?
can you tell me how to make working image without working firmware?

here is short ver. of my reply,

Android, CyanogenMod, and ClockworkMod recovery are open source
project/product. anyone can build it freely. all procedures to build are
described in their web sites.

there is no source code for telechips tablets. so kernel binary and some
other telechips/device specific binary modules need to be copied from
official(stock/update) firmware.

in addition to above things, many fixes/modifications are also needed to
make things better.

fortunately, telechips tablets use standard boot.img format (kernel +
ramdisk). it is default format in Android/CyanogenMod. many sites
explain about it.

please read official documents to build Android/CyanogenMod.
of course contents of boot.img is device specific. this is the reason I made CM port for Scroll tablet and posted here.
this is the reason I said "CM for CherryPad/NanoPad is NOT for Scroll tablet" in 1st post.
I also explained what I used. i.e. CyanogenMod froyo-stable, kernel and modules from update.zip for Scroll tablet.

sigh. I got 2nd PM "how to build boot.img?" from another person.
I don't like PM which does NOT contain any private message. nothing is secret.

I'm not sure what you really want.
name of command? then, it's unpackbootimg and mkbootimg.
complete procedure? please read official documents, and use google...

that pm would be me

ive tried building a boot.img using normal procedure (i build them all the time for my main dev device which is the dell streak) but none of the images i build will boot on the scroll so im wondering what variables you pass to mkbootimg to get them to work as you have obviosuly merged the 2.2 inits and 2.1 kernel which is what im trying to do also

[Warpedflash]

We have done... the other guy has been hacking android for years and produced 2.2 for the streak months before dell did. He knows what he is talking about so just give the exact process lol

do

unpackbootimg -i boot.img

then you'll get variables.

sorry hackers. I started to use android 6 month ago, and started to dev in spare time 3 month ago.
probably I don't have anything to tell you.

I'm happy if someone test my CM image, or someone give me working official firmware if 1.02 is useless.
