[DEV][2012/06/18] TouchBootmenu

[m11kkaa]

Description:
I spent much time learning C to realize that.
Currently, only the UI works and the features needs to be reintegrated.
The goal is to get a bootmenu with an better and (in future) touch operated UI.

Everything is Android4-oriented and this fits the needs of a bootmenu really good!
Currently I have problems with the font which doesn't looks very well.
Maybe someone which has knowledge with bitmap-fonts can help me with this problem

Changelog:

[B]2012-06-18:[/B]

m11kkaa!!

as long as it's bug free and it does what it does, I don't think anyone would complain about the fonts!

can you post the zips so we could test it?

 

[m11kkaa]

As I already wrote in the OP it's not ready for usage yet.
It's just the UI which works. I'll keep you updated.

 

[neo.ank]

Definitely going in a very good direction..

Touch Recovery; touch bootmenu its amazing whats going on here!

 

[m11kkaa]

Just want to let you know, that there's still much progress with this project
Touch is working and the future-plans are that this mod will replace multiboot completely.

Here is the github-repo: https://github.com/M1cha/android_external_bootmenu

Thanks for sharing. I assume the bootmenu can not be compiled without a cyanogen branch (e.g. Quarx's or Epsylon3's CM7/9 branch). Am I right?

 

[m11kkaa]

That's right but maybe I can make a flashable zip which let's you start new bootmenu via 2nd-boot/2nd-system just for testing/preview-purposes.
But this would kill multiboot.

 

[nepotu]

That will be perfect. I will gladly test it. Atm I don't have enough space to download and compile the entire cm repository.

WooHoo!!! I going to compile a build later with this after i finish trying to port gummy rom ..... M11kkaa Thanks for your work and making this possible luckily i don't use multiboot since i don't have enough memory on my SD card

 

[m11kkaa]

So, here it is. A precompiled test-version of the new bootmenu.
It updates your bootmenu(to 1.8.8) and installs TouchBootmenu as 2nd-System.
The update-package is based on the one from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24573782&postcount=605
Happy testing!

PS: added new Screenshot to first post
