| 22:49.36 | *** part/#openezx p3t3r__ (n=p3t3r__@wlan.net-you.de) |
| 23:20.11 | ghane_ | jonwil: great work |
| 23:20.55 | ghane_ | jonwil: i was going to work on my program earlier today, but it seems like there is no need for that one anymore :-) |
| 23:21.01 | jonwil | nope |
| 23:21.16 | jonwil | although if you wanted to make my changes to the flash-tools code better, feel free :P |
| 23:21.40 | jonwil | I am now working on the first release of what I call "openmagx". Release #1 will be a download you can download and install on a linux machine |
| 23:21.59 | ghane_ | i might end up making a smaller and cleaner utility more like the openezx ones later on |
| 23:22.10 | jonwil | ok |
| 23:22.21 | jonwil | Once you download and install it, you get a set of tools and scripts (including the flash tools) |
| 23:22.57 | ghane_ | but dont release a tool as openmagx |
| 23:23.04 | jonwil | hmmm ya |
| 23:23.10 | jonwil | I need a name though |
| 23:23.39 | jonwil | The main script, when run, will reboot your phone in flash mode, read the CG43 and CG52 from the phone, back them up, mount them then copy them somewhere |
| 23:23.50 | ghane_ | yes, but i think it is sort of wrong to use that name for that since openmagx will be the project to free the magx as the ezx/openezx is |
| 23:23.58 | jonwil | good point |
| 23:24.24 | jonwil | although I seriously doubt we will be running a selfbuilt kernel on magx anytime soon |
| 23:24.31 | ghane_ | not soon |
| 23:24.33 | jonwil | or on z6 |
| 23:24.41 | ghane_ | but i think we will |
| 23:24.50 | jonwil | so the script then sits there and waits whilst you make changes to the copied data |
| 23:25.12 | jonwil | After you tell it to continue, it rebuilds the cg43 and cg52 and flashes them back to the phone |
| 23:25.29 | jonwil | Release #2 will actually do stuff to the phone firmware for you (telnet, ftp, custom skins etc) |
| 23:26.13 | ghane_ | that sounds more like uncripplemagx.sh than openmagx.sh to me ;-) |
| 23:27.04 | jonwil | hmmm yeah |
| 23:27.15 | jonwil | Ideas for a suitable name would be appreciated |
| 23:27.33 | ghane_ | or as you said before |
| 23:27.35 | ghane_ | magxjb |
| 23:27.54 | jonwil | magxjb sounds good |
| 23:29.10 | ghane_ | might be a good starting name |
| 23:29.32 | ghane_ | or something like magxunlock etc |
| 23:29.33 | ghane_ | well |
| 23:29.40 | ghane_ | what do you think |
| 23:29.51 | jonwil | I think magxjb is better |
| 23:29.55 | ghane_ | i should stop with my magxflash utility and try yours instead? |
| 23:30.04 | jonwil | unlock implies removing subsidy lock |
| 23:30.10 | jonwil | yes you should stop with your flash tool |
| 23:30.13 | jonwil | and go with mine |
| 23:30.18 | jonwil | since mine actually works :) |
| 23:30.40 | ghane_ | i go and test the flex bits now |
| 23:30.43 | jonwil | mine could be better though, feel free to fix my code where needed :) |
| 23:31.00 | ghane_ | have you tried flashing too with flash-tools? |
| 23:31.15 | jonwil | yes I did |
| 23:31.36 | ghane_ | so i can safely reflash with flexbits and stuff changed now |
| 23:32.11 | jonwil | yes you can |
| 23:32.33 | ghane_ | i probably will rewrite a cleaner and smaller utility just for flashing and reading the magx devices, but that can wait now (I must tell you that as you probably noticed, i've been very very unfocused on coding the flash thingie) |
| 23:32.57 | jonwil | Any such "cleaner" tool still needs to be able to read back from the phones too |
| 23:33.06 | jonwil | since thats important for hacking the cg43 and cg52 |
| 23:33.26 | ghane_ | i'm actually going to race Swedish Nationals with r/c cars on monday - thats sort of where my focus has been the past week |
| 23:33.33 | jonwil | nice :) |
| 23:33.55 | ghane_ | yes, first step was to do a utility with just the bits needed for reading |
| 23:34.09 | ghane_ | but i only got so far as writing functions for sending commands |
| 23:34.40 | jonwil | Figuring out the SBF file format for the SBF support was interesting |
| 23:34.43 | ghane_ | started on the ram-uploader code but got too much other things to think of so i couldnt focus |
| 23:35.13 | jonwil | the ezx tools that claim to deal with sbf files dont actually work with the ones I tried |
| 23:35.20 | jonwil | so maybe fixing those up should be a goal too |
| 23:35.34 | ghane_ | yes i've noticed that too |
| 23:35.37 | jonwil | i.e. making a proper tool to take any sbf or shx file, parse all the headers and dump them |
| 23:35.41 | ghane_ | they dont like the magx sbf files |
| 23:35.43 | jonwil | since the headers are now known |
| 23:37.09 | ghane_ | yes |
| 23:37.20 | ghane_ | well i should start with reading my phone now |
| 23:37.25 | jonwil | ok, so for now I am calling it magxjb |
| 23:37.35 | ghane_ | sounds good |
| 23:37.54 | ghane_ | just so we save the openmagx name for the possibility of booting own kernels |
| 23:39.07 | ghane_ | by the way you should try to upgrade to A3.C9 as far as I understood that is the latest one which works with "all" firmwares |
| 23:41.36 | jonwil | Since I dont intend to upgrade the firmware, I have no need to upgrade the bootloader |
| 23:42.23 | jonwil | I dont plan to upgrade the firmware unless something newer than what I have with an australian flex becomes available |
| 23:42.25 | ghane_ | mine already came with a3.c9 so i had to find a matching ramloader |
| 23:42.38 | ghane_ | btw openmagx |
| 23:43.01 | jonwil | btw what? |
| 23:43.05 | ghane_ | go there :) |
