Flashing Your Build

Flashing Your Build

There are two methods to flash your device:

Common developers steps:

• Copy "rockdev" to windows (or map a network drive from linux to windows)
• Double click "rockdev\AndroidTool.exe" to run the flash application
• Press recovery key of the device and plug in the USB cable
• Wait for the Rockusb interface enumerates in windows
• You need install driver under "rockdev\Driver" for the 1st time
• Click Run button in AndroidTool to flash

Real geeks steps:

• Copy "rockdev" to windows (or map a network drive from linux to windows)
• Double click "rockdev\AndroidTool.exe" to run the flash application
• Change the Loader Image to "rockdev\RK30xxLoader(L)_V0.02_PRELIMINARY_EMMC_ONLY.bin"
• Press recovery key of the device and plug in the USB cable
• Wait for the Rockusb interface enumerates in windows
• You need install driver under "rockdev\Driver" for the 1st time
• Click Run button in AndroidTool to flash

From now on you do not need copy images around, since you can flash with fastboot under Linux. To enter fastboot, reboot with argument fastboot. For the partition name, check rockdev/parameter.

adb reboot fastboot
fastboot -i 0x930 oem unlock
fastboot -i 0x930 oem unlock_accept
fastboot -i 0x930 flash boot     rockdev/Image/boot.img
fastboot -i 0x930 flash kernel   rockdev/Image/kernel.img
fastboot -i 0x930 flash misc     rockdev/Image/misc_wipe_all.img
fastboot -i 0x930 flash recovery rockdev/Image/recovery.img
fastboot -i 0x930 flash system   rockdev/Image/system.img
