board: lg: star: add Optimus 2X P990 support
The LG Optimus 2X is a touchscreen-based, slate-sized smartphone designed and manufactured by LG that runs the Android operating system. The Optimus 2X features a 4" WVGA display, an Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core chip, 512 MB of RAM and extendable 8 GB of internal storage. UART-B is default debug port.

U-Boot for the LG Optimus 2X P990
|
||||
=================================
|
||||
|
||||
``DISCLAMER!`` Moving your device to use U-Boot assumes replacement of the
|
||||
vendor bootloader. Vendor Android firmwares will no longer be able to run on
|
||||
the device. This replacement IS reversible.
|
||||
|
||||
Quick Start
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
- Build U-Boot
|
||||
- Process U-Boot
|
||||
- Flashing U-Boot into the eMMC
|
||||
- Boot
|
||||
- Self Upgrading
|
||||
|
||||
Build U-Boot
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi-
|
||||
$ make star_defconfig
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
After the build succeeds, you will obtain the final ``u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin``
|
||||
image, ready for further processing.
|
||||
|
||||
Process U-Boot
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
``DISCLAMER!`` All questions related to the re-crypt work should be asked
|
||||
in re-crypt repo issues. NOT HERE!
|
||||
|
||||
re-crypt is a tool that processes the ``u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin`` binary into form
|
||||
usable by device. This process is required only on the first installation or
|
||||
to recover the device in case of a failed update.
|
||||
|
||||
Permanent installation can be performed either by using the nv3p protocol or by
|
||||
pre-loading just built U-Boot into RAM.
|
||||
|
||||
Processing for the NV3P protocol
|
||||
********************************
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/grate-driver/re-crypt.git
|
||||
$ cd re-crypt # place your u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin here
|
||||
$ ./re-crypt.py --dev star
|
||||
|
||||
The script will produce a ``repart-block.bin`` ready to flash.
|
||||
|
||||
Processing for pre-loaded U-Boot
|
||||
********************************
|
||||
|
||||
The procedure is the same, but the ``--split`` argument is used with the
|
||||
``re-crypt.py``. The script will produce ``bct.img`` and ``ebt.img`` ready
|
||||
to flash.
|
||||
|
||||
Flashing U-Boot into the eMMC
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
``DISCLAMER!`` All questions related to NvFlash should be asked in the proper
|
||||
place. NOT HERE! Flashing U-Boot will erase all eMMC, so make a backup before!
|
||||
|
||||
Permanent installation can be performed either by using the nv3p protocol or by
|
||||
pre-loading just built U-Boot into RAM.
|
||||
|
||||
Flashing with the NV3P protocol
|
||||
*******************************
|
||||
|
||||
Nv3p is a custom Nvidia protocol used to recover bricked devices. Devices can
|
||||
enter it by pre-loading vendor bootloader with nvflash.
|
||||
|
||||
With nv3p, ``repart-block.bin`` is used. It contains BCT and a bootloader in
|
||||
encrypted state in form, which can just be written RAW at the start of eMMC.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./nvflash_v1.13.87205 --bct star.bct --setbct --odmdata 0xC8000
|
||||
--configfile flash.cfg --bl android_bootloader.bin --sync
|
||||
$ ./utiils/nvflash_v1.13.87205 --resume --rawdevicewrite 0 2048 repart-block.bin
|
||||
|
||||
When flashing is done, reboot the device.
|
||||
|
||||
Flashing with a pre-loaded U-Boot
|
||||
*********************************
|
||||
|
||||
U-Boot pre-loaded into RAM acts the same as when it was booted "cold". Currently
|
||||
U-Boot supports bootmenu entry fastboot, which allows to write a processed copy
|
||||
of U-Boot permanently into eMMC.
|
||||
|
||||
While pre-loading U-Boot, hold the ``volume down`` button which will trigger
|
||||
the bootmenu. There, select ``fastboot`` using the volume and power buttons.
|
||||
After, on host PC, do:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
$ fastboot flash 0.1 bct.img
|
||||
$ fastboot flash 0.2 ebt.img
|
||||
$ fastboot reboot
|
||||
|
||||
Device will reboot.
|
||||
|
||||
Boot
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
To boot Linux, U-Boot will look for an ``extlinux.conf`` on MicroSD and then on
|
||||
eMMC. Additionally, if the Volume Down button is pressed while booting, the
|
||||
device will enter bootmenu. Bootmenu contains entries to mount MicroSD and eMMC
|
||||
as mass storage, fastboot, reboot, reboot RCM, poweroff, enter U-Boot console
|
||||
and update bootloader (check the next chapter).
|
||||
|
||||
Flashing ``repart-block.bin`` eliminates vendor restrictions on eMMC and allows
|
||||
the user to use/partition it in any way the user desires.
|
||||
|
||||
Self Upgrading
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
Place your ``u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin`` on the first partition of the MicroSD card
|
||||
and insert it into the device. Enter bootmenu, choose update the bootloader
|
||||
option with the Power button and U-Boot should update itself. Once the process
|
||||
is completed, U-Boot will ask to press any button to reboot.
