Hello!

I spent hourrrrrs writing and testing this, for my dear Linux comrades, to make the automatic installation of Xolo ICS on your San Diego, an automated BREEZE! :D

I'm very proud of having taken a lot of work out of the process for you (it even downloads the ROM!), so I hope you like this :D

Please test, and if you like it, maybe buy me a beer if you like (that is not compulsory!)

Screenshot:

Pre-requisites:

1/ Linux (d'oh!) - [ I tested this in Linux Mint 13, 64 bit, but Ubuntu will be fine :) ] oh, and 'wget' needs to be installed!

2/ More than a modicum of common sense :P

3/ Root (or sudo) priviledges (VITAL!)

4/ "USB debugging" *ENABLED* in the San Diego

>>>> HOW TO ENABLE "USB DEBUGGING" ON YOUR SAN DIEGO, RUNNING ICS <<<<

Click on "Settings", then follow these simple steps:

The script will ONLY download the XOLO ICS "update.zip" *once*, and it checks it is downloaded every time you run this, saving your precious bandwidth.

Test, test again, and enjoy it!

Here's the source code, for interest's sake:



#!/bin/bash

chmod +x adb fastboot wget



# WARNING BLOCK FOR SUDO

echo "???? ARE YOU A USER WITH SU OR SUDO PERMISSIONS? YOU NEED TO BE! ????"

Little of topic but how do you learn how to do this? Would love to be able to make a program like that

That seems totally on topic to me :)

Well, it's years of making mistakes, installing many Linux distributions and way too much typing, that allows one to develop these skills. Don't ever allow anyone to make you think it is a "L33t skill" or some other utter nonsense - it's not magically imparted knowledge, it just takes practice, patience and determination; so long as you are comfortable with Linux bash shells and DOS command prompts, you should just experiment, typing commands and arguments in, and see what works (and what doesn't!).

Don't ever think, as I used to, that this is a "them and us" situation - "them" being all the (imaginary) "whizz kid" hackers, who profess to know everything, which, sadly, often makes "us", the one who doesn't, then we feel worthless, and as if they know it ALL. I can say with one hundred percent certainty that there is not ONE SINGLE programmer alive who knows every conceivable thing there is to know about the language, programs or scripts they write. We are all human - some of just like to show off and make out that we are exceptional - pride is not good, and I know enough to make scripts like this, just through trial and error, so I encourage you to make as many errors as you need... YOU WILL get there, I have faith in you - have faith in your abilities my friend :D

Take care, God bless, enjoy yourself :)

glossywhite i'm sure you could unlock the bootloader,unlock the sim,create a custom kernel,create a custom rom (even ubuntu works on phones now) and make it have free calls for life if you wanted it to :D

you could team up with zhiming zhou , he/she is a whizzkid like yourself ;)

Together i think you could work wonders !!

:P

Flattery will get you:

1/ Nowhere, in the context of "flat battery", aka "flattery" :P

2/ It has gained you my gratitude, but I am not sure that alone will "get you everywhere"! ...

hehe!

Thank you very much, I am not sure I am quite at that stage yet, but as and when I discover things and release them, my good Modaco friends will see them here first!

God bless you, that was very kind of you :)

PS: Did you test it? Oh, and I have ported it to Windows too - check this sub-forum for my other thread :)
