Compatibility With Nitdroid And Sillyboot

__________________________________________________ __

Before Installing This APP !!!

OPEN MODE :

This App Needed Openmode Kernel ! so if you Not installed it , you can use this Tutorial http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=241.0
And ONLY Do these :

1. run following command in shell (as user) : ( For Dont See Preventing display Scary Warranty Void message )
disclaimer-cal remove View-openmode

3 . Prepare for openmode ( this Step REMOVE ALL YOUR Accounts !!!! )

4. Flashing to dualboot kernel
My Multiboot :
You Must Use my multiboot because the Sillyboot menu or juicemenu not support my app

__________________________________________________ __

Download :

v 1.1 _9 (2012-10-07) :

Without Bootit Shortcut :
Backupmenu v 1.1_9
With Bootit Shortcut :
Backupmenu (Bootit) v 1.1_9
__________________________________________________ __

Installations :

Download Backupmenu ( I Puted the My Multiboot and Backupmenu One a tar file )
And Put It On MyDocs
if you installed older version dont delete it , only again do this step
Execute following command in terminal ( as root better is SSH over USB or Wlan)

Code:

tar -xvf /home/user/MyDocs/backupmenu_1.1_8.tar -C /

And Now , You Can Reboot and see the multiboot menu
touch the Backup Icon in up left
after 49 s if you dont choose any boot menu , it booted Meego

__________________________________________________ __

IMPORTANT :

- For Use My App First You Must Know its a Touch App ! this esay than Keyboard BUT Any Wrong Choose Maybe You Lose your data or unbootabel device so Very Be Careful
- Your N9 Must have More 50% Battery , the app not showed any error or warning , but maybe phone turned of when on Restoring or Backuping

- For First Use : Backup Home ! And Reboot phone , Boot Meego . Use mass storage mode , and see the files in dir "Backupmenu" in MyDocs , open it , if File is Ok , test the restore mode of Home
After this test Rootfs ( maybe some things in my n9 different with other n9 )

- the backup and restore rootfs process in Minimum of time take 3 or 5 minutes
- in first version you can only backup the rootfs and home and nitdroid folder
- you can backup how much you want but for restore only " 5 " the first backup can choosed !for example if you have five backup on mydoc , and now you do new backup , the app for restore show the all backup it can display on screen , but you have only 5 choose ( five first backup ! and last backup can not be to choose ! ) ( this is a bug , if i can fixed it later )
- Backup Menu N9 Worked if you dont modify the /sbin/preinit /opt/backupmenu and /opt/multiboot files
- in the Start Menu the button B and R and Q Now working , other not working
- B for Backup and R for restore
- in both of menu Backup and Restoring , the Backup All ( rootfs and home ) and the Restore all ( rootfs and home ) not , i fix next version
all backup Stored in MyDocs/Backupmenu/
- Not tested on N950

__________________________________________________

I Tested My App For Some times after the Restoring Full Worked
BUT ! if any body can, test it and feedback here

__________________________________________________

a Way to Restore your backup if the phone not booted or multiboot not worked
Using a linux Pc
do these actions step by step

1- Install flasher for your linux
2- Download this file N9.zip and put on your pc
3- open terminal
4- cd to dir of these files
5- type this command ( as root )

Code:

flasher --load -k vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader -n initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 --boot

now after a min , all partitions on N9 ( rootfs home mydoc ) showed like a usb flash on linux ( if these not showed , you must using " fdisk -l " to know whats the addres of N9 partitions on your pc , and mount these )

For Backup : ( in terminal Linux PC )
6- cd to /media/rootfs ( locations of rootfs partition on my PC )
7- type

Code:

 tar -cvf <the backups location you want> .

in end of this command is " . "

FOR Restore : ( in terminal Linux PC )
do step 4 & 5
type

Code:

tar -xvf <locations of backup file> -C /media/rootfs/

this way is good way for first test of my app

Oh yes, sorry. Spelling corrections. It's an old picture.

I need some help still. Having "charging mode" is very necessary. I can't find anything about it in /home (mmcblk0p3). Any suggestions of where it could be?

Current Status :
* Backup Proccess is Fully Complete
* Am now working on restore
* Mass storage and SSH to be worked on after restore is complete

maybe you can make it like this? You can not boot in the backupmenu if you do not have 70%+ of battery left?
Phones engine software is always on before normal software (fiasco) and even the N9 fiasco is erased, it will recharge.. so.. maybe it will charge, even it is not showup?

That is a good suggestion, but I have already thought about that.

Selecting Backup Menu does not run dbus, or bme (of any kind). I can not even see battery status.

I've never worked with init and daemons on meego, so I don't how to do it.

There is a charge.sh in the N900 version. I've uploaded it if anybody can work out how to modify it to work for the N9.
