Porting boot2gecko to AT&T GS3

cpu999 · Jan 2, 2013

Im trying to port boot2gecko to the at&t gs3.
Im using the cm9 kernel, and it gives me the bootloader, the screen goes black for about 10 seconds, then it starts bootlooping.
Here is my boot.img:

are you building this from source?
i spent a bunch of time messing with this at one point, gave up after a bit
was hoping they'd rebase on 4.1 but it didn't seem to be in their agenda

Yea, that probably isn't going to work. You'd need to hack up a working ramdisk (assuming b2g doesn't create one for you) from like the gnex or something.

sorry if this is a noob post here, but did you try to boot it with the siyah kernel first? its what they are using on the S2 dual boot setup

Ok I messed around with this for my last device the HTC Sensation. I noticed that the OP cpu999 said he thought it was something in the ramdisk. I know you may be following these instructions already. But have you rebuilt the boot.img per the instructions here. Also I this is my first Samsung device so I have a lot to learn about working with them so if I made any errors in this post please over look them.
