My C (female) --> micro adapters came in.  Plugged it in to Shamu, now to test.

[SamuriHL]

Alright.  I'll have an update here in a little bit.  I got the progress bar working for OTA updates so you can see the progress as it flashes.  Seriously kuel stuff.  That also means I got your real time status back in the UI as it's flashing.  I multithreaded this bitch cause I've had enough screwing around trying to make it all work.  I want to clean some stuff up then you'll get a new release.

[SamuriHL]

Hey do you need a reboot command added to the end of the factory image flash?  I can't remember if it needs one or not.

[johnlgalt]

Yeah, it was one of the little things I was gonna pass on to you later on.

[johnlgalt]

Although, a better way would be to provide the user with the option to reboot after or not (or live boot a custom recovery) - I assume those are also little things that can be worked out later though.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Clicking continue allowed it to continue the DL process (actually, it was never actually paused - it threw up the exception and still continued on).  And this is when I opened CMD in the D:\HouseOfGoogle folder and ran HoG from the CL, not from my Xplorer² window.

And Now it is just sitting there after Download complete, and my Shamu is 'b0rked' lol. (I say 'b0rked' because it had the dead Andy recovery icon on the screen for a while, but apparently the last reboot allowed it to boot back to the installed OS).

D:\HouseOfGoogle\IMAGES\shamu\shamu-ngi77b-factory-5cd75e2a.zip exists...checking validity.
SHA256 FAILED! Expected: 5CD75E2A3BBBE5D7CF886F6DBA4DBFC16A04076E6ACE11B4DEEB1DC4E43B7465| Received: 96164FF8E9159485395DA594E214F9E72F5A87CE64691C7FA4712146BAAD9DF3
D:\HouseOfGoogle\IMAGES\shamu\shamu-ngi77b-factory-5cd75e2a.zip
Download complete...

So, I manually verified the hash with both HashTab and Hash Check - uh, the check matches in both of my apps.  So, uh, something ain't right with the check routine.  I checked several other hash types, as well as hashing the original hash string, but could not get the string your app got.

[SamuriHL]

Yea for now I'm going to reboot.  This is just trying to get 100% stock flashing done.  Once I get everything where I need it to be, you and I will work on the magic extras that you need from this util.  But for now I'm focusing on just getting the basics done.  New version incoming momentarily.

 

Woops...new version up I forgot to hit post LOL

[SamuriHL]

Your error is self explanatory.    The file was open somewhere else and it tried to overwrite it.  The new version won't even allow you to download it if it already exists.  I suggest a reboot, grab the new version of the tool, and try again.  DO NOT open it from your file explorer.  We already know that doesn't work and I'm not working to fix that bug any time soon as there's no clean way to do it.  Your file explorer masks the location of the exe which is complete BS IMO but something we'll look at some other time.  Right now it's low priority.

[SamuriHL]

P.S. Continuing after an exception....not a good idea. 

[johnlgalt]

PPS - the file couldn't have been open anywhere because it was just downloaded.

 

Something wasn't right.

 

I didn't go looking at the file until I saw the dead Andy, then saw the log where the Hashes didn't match.

[johnlgalt]

OK, I just tried it as follows:

 

Opened Xplorer² and navigated to D:\HouseOfGoogle

Opened .CMD in this folder, closed X2

ran HouseOfGoogle.exe from CL, closed CMD

 

Still getting the error.

 

So, I decided to run it from normal Windows Explorer:

 

And I got the same exception error - the only thing at that HoG folder is Windows Explorer, X2 and CMD are both closed.

[SamuriHL]

Sounds like the download never finished.  Here's a hint...the filename contains the first few characters of the SHA256 hash.  So if you check the hash and the start doesn't match what's in the filename, it's fracked.  There's literally no error handling in this thing yet (hence alpha status) so if something like that goes wrong, it probably didn't finish writing the file and had a filehandle locked.  I added exception handling around the checkHash method for now.  These things are going to leave the app in a VERY messed up state though.  If you get an error like that, kill it and rerun it.

[johnlgalt]

Only thing I can figure is that Defender is getting in the way?

 

Windows 10 Insider Preview build (Skip Ahead) ver 18841, if that makes any difference.

[SamuriHL]

I didn't read where you rebooted...   Remember when we discussed following EXPLICIT directions?

Yes, and I wrote that I did that - with 2 dif apps.  And the hash *MATCHED* what it was supposed to.

[johnlgalt]

I'm only up to here:

 

 

• Download and unzip preferably to a root directory somewhere.
• You *MUST* have fastboot in the path!!  It's not coded to look for it so if it's not in the path it won't find it and will likely hang the program.  Even if it's in the path, I've not tested it with fastboot so it may also hang the program.
• Run HouseOfGoogle.exe
• In the Device drop down, select your device
• Image Type, choose FACTORY
• Versions probably 9.0.0 unless you're doing it on your whale
• In the list box, select the image you're going to flash, and click download
• Select a directory to save it to.  I'd make it a clean directory with nothing else in it if I were you....cough cough
• Watch the pretty progress bar as it downloads your image
• When it's done, you'll get a dialog popup that hopefully tells you the download was successful and the SHA256 matched

 

 

I haven't even gotten to the point of rebooting into the BL yet.

That makes no sense at all.  I'm using the built in functionality for hashing and it's not once failed on me and I've run it against a bunch of issues.  Like I said, reboot and try again cause it sounds like there's an open handle somewhere f***ing things up.

Lol Oh.  OK, gonna do that.  Report back in a bit.
