Installation
Using uniLoader
This device does not use U-Boot. Boot is handled via uniLoader, a secondary bootloader that chain-loads the mainline kernel.
Build uniLoader with the kernel Image and device tree in blob/, repack into boot.img (header v4, kernel only — ramdisk lives in vendor_boot.img on this device), then:
fastboot boot boot_test.img
to test without touching the boot partition, or fastboot flash boot boot_test.img once confirmed working.
Touchscreen
Working on driver for touchscreen.
