Phil3759 · Apr 2, 2014

New repack:
- based on stock 1.54.401.5
- load texfat modules (will be enabled later once stable)
- properly use dtb msm kernel image

Hope it boots at least so that we can start fixing up things

not quite sure how to take a photo, if I slide to the left it toggles the screen brightness, if I toggle to the right the screen goes blank and restarts the phone

edit
actually it's the other way round (slide right brightness, slide left blank and reboot)

Ah,
I forgot to edit op
Long press of 2 sec takes pic
But, since screen is tiner you say, a camera shot is better

Try to disable screen saver: set screen off to disabled and remove it from slide left gesture actions

I will increase font size too

Did so and still restarts after a minute or two :/

Btw, THANK YOU FOR BUILDING THIS! I've been wanting to throw my phone and claw my eyes out over Twrp the last few days, corrupted my cache and system partitions among other things, fun time to fix it.

idk if this will help you or not, restart happens regardless of touching it. tried doing a backup and later starting aromafm and it restarts. Log is attached ^^

Update fix2:
http://d-h.st/74F

- bigger font
- enable exfat on external storage (sorry, will need an extra derp on next update)
- fix mount point for external storage
- disable some QCOM display parts
- more stock parts, include selinux permissions

Let me know how it goes. Seems to be a long debugging step by step until we get a dev with a device release a proper device tree or repack from my base

Downloaded and installed!

Menu Looks *perfect* now!

Still getting the same random reboots after about 2 minutes in recovery, already tried disabling 'Dim display' and "screen off" to no avail.

For me it's not yet, Idk about anyone else. I get about 2 minutes to do whatever I wanna do in recovery before it restarts the phone.. was successfully able to flash a couple small quick things tho.. just not enough time to flash a Rom or do a backup yet.

I need a log
When it reboots by its self, let it go to the rom
Grab all files in /cache/recovery and post them in a zip here.
That way i can see what is happening
