I’ve spent quite a bit of ImageUpdate the last few days – many hours on ImageUpdate. I did manage to find out:
1. Module –> MNGE conversion is not working perfectly
The current tools for converting modules to the flat MNGE file format need to be updated before we can use ImageUpdate to work with modules.
2. A GSM Kernel will boot on CDMA phones
In a desperate attempt to figure out why one of my packages wouldn’t work, I put uldr from a GSM Raphael on my Diamond. Guess what? It booted, past the splash screen, but reset soon after.
3. Packages without modules are easy.
I’ve written several tools to automate the generation of .cab.pkg files, including tools to change certificates in DSMs. Once everything is done, I’ll have it packaged up and posted shortly.
