[MOD/TUTORIAL] Change Firmware folders to root

Well,I just received my OndaVX747 and i updated the firmware and made a new skin.

Every time i tried different skins on the Onda i had to downgrade to v1.0 and then back to "Moded 1.20" so i knew i had to do something to mod themes,logon/off animation,fonts and more,more easy and faster.

So i went to my hex editor and looked at the ccpmp.bin and what i found was really interesting.

I immediately found that the internal flash (where the firmware and all the firmware folders are) is in drive Z and the root of the Onda is drive A (where the music,video,and all is).

So i edited the drive letter of the folders:codecs,game,system and user_data->logoff.ani/logon.ani folders/files to drive A, and added those folder/files to the root of the Onda Player.

And it worked,i could change/edit the files and themes freely without having to downgrade the firmware.

NOTE:I'm making header files from the functions in the firmware to make a SDK for the Onda,the only problem is that i don't have a make compiler to use Makefiles to compile the projects to a ".dl" extension,wich is the executable extension of the OndaVX Firmware.

(Like an exe in windows)

So,if some one has a Makefile compiler, it will be greatly appreciated,or if some one knows C++ and wants to
join,you're welcome to.

TUTORIAL=============

IMPORTANT! This can potentially brick your OndaVX747 if you do something stupid so,do at your own risk!

Things you need:
any Hex editor (i use Hex Workshop)
HXF Packer/Unpacker
OndaVX747 Firmware (1.0/1.10/1.20 Any version will do)
A bit of knowledge and common sense

Things to do:

1:Unpack the VX747.HXF with the HXF Unpacker



2:Open ccpmp.bin with the hex editor

3:Search for z:\



4:Change z:\ to a:\



5:Save it

6:Move all the folders that you edited the drive letter from the VX747.HXF you are about to compile to the root of your OndaVX747.

Just leave the Firmware (ccpmp.bin) and any other folder you wish to let in the z:\ drive.

7:Compile your HXF

8:Update your Firmware to the modded one

NOTE:Remember to Move the folders you edited the drive from the firmware to your OndaVX747 Root!

9:Happy Modding!


Tell me what u think!
