[TOOL] Improved Version of Seven-Eighter

Over the past few days, I have been working on a new version of Seven-Eighter based off of the source code that Jaxbot kindly provided. I have made numerous improvements to the original version.
One of those improvements is instead of embedding the links to the update files as strings in the actual program, my version of Seven-Eighter downloads a config file from the internet which contains the links to the update files. In this manner, you, the user, do not have to download a new version of the program every time Microsoft releases a new update for Windows Phone 7.x. All I have to do on my end when a new update comes out is to just update the config file once I find links for the new update.
Some more improvements include improved error handling and some better instruction to help you with the update process. If you haven't yet, you should really check it out. I am curious as to what people think of my version compared to the original.
You can find the link to download my version of Seven-Eighter on my blog here: http://bit.ly/ZOzAz9
Now as such, I am always looking to improve. I welcome any and all suggestions. If you want to throw something my way to help with development you are welcome to do so, but not required (your satisfaction works just as well, check my signature for instructions).

Nice work!

To be honest, I didn't test my version of Seven-Eighter with a custom rom image (only stock factory rom image). What build is it currently running?

I have the exact same question.
I pretty much bricked by bootlaoder on my AT&T HD7S using the initial version of SevenEighter from jaxbot and now can't even use the gold card method to downgrade since I need it unlocked.
My RGB bootloader screen only shows one line of text at the top in the red and nothing in the white space where it should say USB HOST/Loader Mode.
But at least I had a 7.5 Zune backup that I can restore to, the only thing being that it doesn't restore my bootloader.
So, question is, can I use your software to upgrade to a custom unlocked 7.8?
Thank you!

I was finally able to get my Focus S upgraded to 7.8. Got tired of waiting. I had a problem with the application and had to close it. when I relaunched, it continues where it left off. Nice! I left the update.log just in case.
Now I just need to unlock it for side loading. Anyone recommend ways that still work? Thanks.
Will

Screenshot please ?

anybody updated at&t titan 2 to 7.8?

Yes. The seveneighter app worked perfectly. I just wish I could install the version of htc connection setup I had on my hd2 so I could change my apn settings for my carrier instead of being locked out of my mms.

Porting Firefox OS to FP1

Continuing the discussion from Firefox OS is the way to go!
Hi guys!
I am new to xda-devs, but have been visiting it for useful information in the past.
I own a FP1 (First Edition) and am seeking to port FFOS to the FP1.
I do not have any developing experience, I have just done C and Java and I am comfortable with Linux's CLI.
I am following this guide: Porting Firefox OS
Currently I am stuck at the following: Create a manifest for the new device
[edit]
Which changes do I have to make to the hamachi manifest mentioned there?
I figured out, that most of the stuff is hamachi-specific and thus not required. My current manifest is attached. Could you please take a look and tell me, if this is enough?
These files are at hand:
madde on Fairphone Forum said:
Well there already is a recovery file for the fp1 + fp1u by chrmhoffmann up and running. The MTK6589 source code is kind of released and there has been a lot of work on the android code by the omnirom project, which might come in handy.
Should be definitely manageable to build and try out Firefox OS on the FP1. UnfortunatelyI'll just don't have the time to really dig into that. Maybe someone with a bit more experience can give it a shot. I'd love to see and try out the result...

I am inviting @madde-, @_keesj and @chrmhoffmann, I hope you, or others, can help me out.
Thanks in advance, Stefan
PS.: As I am new to xda-devs, I do not know, if my thread is in the right position and/or tagged correctly. Please give some advice on how to improve my original post.
Edit: My current manifest is attached.

I'm very interested by a portage of Firefox OS to the Fairphone
Don't have enought time to test for now, but I stay connected

Did you try your file out? I's think it's probably best to cut down on just the relevant settings.

Yes, the config.sh got stuck at like 93%.
Also I have no idea, what exactly I have to include into the manifest file. I think I need a toolchain, but I am not sure where to get one, and how to apply it. (I somehow know what it is though, I think... )
Ok, running the config.sh comes at the very end, so I probably should continue with the configuration tree[1]...
Does everything in here [2](@chrmhoffmann's repo android_device_fp_FP1) go to the configuration tree?

No haven't been able to work on this.
I still have no idea, where and how to build this configuration tree. Do you have advice on this?
Thank you, Stefan

Fyi, a build is now available. As a new user on XDA, I can not post link here (what a ****ty rule), but check bug 1139642 on bugzilla and search Fairphone on the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) to have more info.

Wrong phone (FP1(U) vs FP2)
The build, you are referring to, is for FP2, not for FP1.
A Firefox OS for FP1 could possibly be built using the source by @chrmhoffmann: http://forum.xda-developers.com/fairphone/orig-development/rom-fairphone-fp1-kitkat-4-4-2-t3243623

WIMBoot For Surface 2 (RT) Guide

WIMBoot for RT devices.
You can build it yourself. The complete guide is here, http://tech.myonlylonely.com/wimboot-for-surface-2/(This article is based on a post in PCBeta, http://bbs.pcbeta.com/viewthread-1576145-1-1.html.).
I'm the author of this article. And it also provide a built recovery image for you to reset your device to a wim boot implementation state. Both the guide and the recovery image is in simplified Chinese, but you can add your own language pack into that image or build your own image. The image is only for Surface 2, but you can follow the guide to build it for your Surface RT and other RT devices.
Please use it at your own risk!
Edit:
I have translated my article into English. New Link: http://tech.myonlylonely.com/wimboot-for-surface-2-en/.

So you are making a Windows RT install image with a smaller footprint, right? How much space are you saving? Or is there some other benefit that I'm missing?

There is no other benefit. For those who has a 32G device, it can save a lot of space. I post this just because it is possible. You could use it or not.

I realized after reading my question again that it might seem like it had a negative tone. Sorry about that. I was really asking so I could understand the reason for making such an image, as I have a 32gb device myself.

That's OK. The benefits: 1. You can save space. 2. And you still can recover to an origin state without making a recovery flash drive. If you read the Technet article to learn how it works you can understand why it can save space and still can recover to an origin state without a flash drive at the same time. Here is the article: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn594399.aspx.

Is root possible on Verizon Note 4?

Or even just custom recovery?
Google searches result in both yes and no answers i dont know what info to trust
SM-N910V on 5.0.1
I've been out of the phone modding scene for a whille
Thanks to anyone who can give me the correct answer. Dont want to download these files only to brick my only phone

Check out the 'New Note 4 owner' thread above yours. Nothing definitive yet, but it's kind of a lead. Once you click the link, search for 'Verizon' and it'll show our phone, the download links, and the version of Android you need to be on. I haven't tried it yet, but want to. Someone in that thread said someone about the zip file saying Europe in the name, but 'Verizon(USA)' in the description on the first page that loads.

Yep, sad but true. That little unfortunate fact was pointed out in the thread I directed to by another in a not-so-polite way. I didn't even think about checking the date in the post until it was pointed out. Good thing I didn't bother trying it, yet.
