<lanik123[m]> barni2000: have you tried to run mainline on phones with dtbo?
<barni2000[m]> <lanik123[m]> "barni2000: have you tried to run..." <- Yes on xiaomi-onclite Redmi 7
<lanik123[m]> barni2000[m]: Does this dtbo only work with lk2nd or can fastboot use it too?
<lanik123[m]> * use it for booting too?
<barni2000[m]> I have flashed with fastboot
<barni2000[m]> It needed for lk2nd also
<barni2000[m]> But you cantry erase dtbo partition first
<lanik123[m]> barni2000[m]: Nope, on redmi 7a fastboot is crashing if you try boot something with erased dtbo partition or filed by zero
<barni2000[m]> Than try to make similar empty dtbo img
<lanik123[m]> barni2000[m]: dtb not found
<lanik123[m]> lanik123[m]: I checked it recently
<lanik123[m]> Hmm
<barni2000[m]> Did you modified the values?
<lanik123[m]> barni2000[m]: Yep
<barni2000[m]> Maybe some other values are needed also idk
<barni2000[m]> Or you could try with lk2nd
<lanik123[m]> barni2000[m]: lk2nd on sdm439 is broken
<lanik123[m]> It can't boot anything
<lanik123[m]> Oh, nice
<lanik123[m]> Ty
Daanct12 has quit [Quit: WeeChat 4.1.2]
<lanik123[m]> Maybe anyone can test mainline on santoni now?
<barni2000[m]> Is sdm439 better than sdm632?
<barni2000[m]> I wonder why redmi 8 has that
<barni2000[m]> Sdm632 is an updated msm8953
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> <barni2000[m]> "Is sdm439 better than sdm632?" <- i don't think so
<barni2000[m]> Only advantage it use less power a bit ( because it much weaker than sdm632)
<barni2000[m]> Redmi 7 has sdm632 Redmi 8 has sdm439 the price is very similar
<Danct12[m]> <lanik123[m]> "Nope, on redmi 7a fastboot is..." <- still better than mtk :D
<Danct12[m]> on my volla phone (mt6797) if i erase dtbo you can't enter fastboot anymore
<Danct12[m]> s/mt6797/mt6763/
<lanik123[m]> <barni2000[m]> "Is sdm439 better than sdm632?" <- I don't think so. sdm439 is OC version of msm8937 with new mdss 12nm pll
<lanik123[m]> > <@barni2000:matrix.org> Is sdm439 better than sdm632?
<lanik123[m]> * I don't think so. sdm439 is OC version of msm8937 with new 12nm pll for mdss
<lanik123[m]> * I don't think so. sdm439 is OC version of msm8937 with new 12nm pll for mdss/mdp
<lanik123[m]> <Danct12[m]> "on my volla phone (mt6797) if..." <- lol, cafebabe says sdm439 has same issue but fastboot recovers after 7th try
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> lanik123[m]: + paired with new PMICs
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> s/+/plus,/
<Danct12[m]> lanik123[m]: ah, so there's probably some failsafe built in
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> lanik123[m]: s/sdm439/mi439
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> > <@lanik123:matrix.org> lol, cafebabe says sdm439 has same issue but fastboot recovers after 7th try
<M0xCAFEBABE[m]> * s/sdm439/mi439/g
<Danct12[m]> or probably because boot failed multiple times and it switched to different slot
<barni2000[m]> <lanik123[m]> "lol, cafebabe says sdm439 has..." <- Edl solves "everything"
<barni2000[m]> for conclusion redmi 8 is worse than 7
