i900_EXEcutor ___ [23.05.09] ___

v 1.9 wIK
- The opportunity of work with pda_section (tab PDA) is added at presence of
files "Kitchens" (subfolder Kitchen)!! Disassembly pda_section in dump/packages
and assembly pda_section from files of dump/packages is accessible.
For disassembly PDA_section it is necessary to specify file PDA_section,
folder, where it will be unpacked also and type of the formed data on an
output.
For assembly PDA_section in image_folder should be :
for DUMP data_in - folder DUMP with files and original OS.NB
for PACKAGES data_in - folders OEM\SYS\ROM with files and original OS.NB.
The name new PDA_file is formed on mask PDA_YYMMDD_HHMMSS.bin
- The opportunity of viewing of the information on eboot_section (tab Eboot) and
it saved in a text file is added.

dude YOU ROCK!

does that mean we can use LZX compression on roms now? because we used XPR now. do we have to follow a different procedure?

thanks again man. i have to check this out.

Also how much shall we increase the pagepool value?

[shokka9]

wow Pako, this is a huge improvement..

same questions as sector tho...

any recomendations on Page pool size?

thanks for your work bro, cant wait to try this later

[Pako777]

pagepool : sorry guys .. i don't know me ask this option include.. i'm used osnbtool - it can do 1-24 Mb pagepool.. but in programm i do edited checkbox (0-99 mb) .. but i think that osnbtool will be only 1-24Mb

i'm NOT_customizer.. sorry..

[lastnikita]

thanks for the pagepool trick, I was too lazy to do it manually

if I understand correctly, can we now use it to convert dumped rom into flashable format ?

[Ryrzy]

it will be nice Pako when you make in EXE/Assemble option "Open all"... when click on it we can chose a folder with all files and proram open all of them itself... and you can make tick boxes to chose what we wont to be made in exe (see picture, sorry for english)

Ok guys here is the report from Omnia for pagepool.

We use 8mb pagepool for cooking.

The ratio goes like if we increase pagepool you get less ram but speedier system.
Although maybe we could increase a bit the pagepool or decrease it to see how it reacts to the phone.
Dont over do it and use it at your own risk.

[shokka9]

is it possible to calculate minimum OR maximum thresholds, so we dont crach the system?

Or is it trial and error (as usual ).

[sector]

Another update i just found out in a thread:

It says that,
"Experience from xda forums tells that PDAs with 64M RAM would benefit from setting PagePool to 8M. And for PDAs upgraded to 128M RAM, 16M is a reasonable value. Some people set it to 24 and even 32M, since their devices have enough memory anyway."


Meaning? We have 128mb ram total. Phone uses around 30mb shared for video graphics, bootloader, radio, DMA, camera etc.
So what is left is around ~95mb.
Main Memory | 27322 | 111910912 | 106.73mb

An ideal value could be between 12-16mb of pagepool. Although i would start from lower and go to higher.

You will notice speedier system!

Someone can correct me if im wrong.

[MickyMax]

Can we use this tool to create an exe to flash dumped roms ?

[sector]

pakko pagepool doesnt work sometimes.

it doesnt grab the os and xip. i dont know why. i think it is a bug when u grab the "path-string" on textbox.

can you check it please?

edit: nevermind. i think it is windows7.

works on vmware on windowsxp
