Iam trying to build the recovery. i keep gettting this error. even when i change the recovery partition size in BoardConfig.mk

Target boot image: out/target/product/rise/boot.img
out/target/product/rise/boot.img total size is 4464640
error: out/target/product/rise/boot.img too large (4464640 > [3784704 - 270336])
make: *** [out/target/product/rise/boot.img] Error 1

Anyone with more experience know what to do ?

EDIT: Actually i seem to get that error when i try to build a recovery for anything, tried the warp for the hell of of, same thing

 

Now i j just need to get one of these phones, and we need to unlock the bootloader, which i hope is possible.

here is my first contribution to the Keyocera Rise/HYDRO phones.

CWM6 Recovery and installer (For Windows Users)

Have you actually built it yet, or are you going to build it? I've tried building CWM5, but it doesn't boot on the phone. Probably because of the bootloader?

 

yeah, it's my thread I just was interested to try out somebody else's build of CWM for this phone.

 

OKAY, First off. There is no need to post this multiple times. If you look at the Kyocera Rise thread you posted on, this was debunked to be the work of a popular spam. We will not be able to use methods from other manufacturers to unlock the bootloader on the Kyocera Rise/Hydro. Case closed, move on.

 

I'm a newb at this, but is there anything I could do to help?

 

The bootloader can only be used by the factory or an Authorized Distributor are allowed to flash the firmware through a desktop software.

No no that just won't do

 

Without skill at hacking Android, for now probably not directly. You can do what I'm doing though, field problems/questions so those who have the skill to h4x0r the phone have time to do it without distraction.

Or if you're rich you could send Amazon codes to the most skilled developers so they can buy guineapig phones. That seriously would help though, nobody wants to brick their daily driver.

 

You should look in to a warranty phone if you can. This isn't likely to ever be able to bring locked phones back.

 

WHERE IS YOUR FIRST CONTRIBUTION..my HYDRO almost smoked a HTC and GALAXY

 

i built it, but cant test lol

The delta folder in /cache is the update but for some reason mine won't install gives error 8507 and says contact service provider

 

I zipped the delta folder looks like a lot of .bin files uploading to google drive now so can give link for download hope this update file helps yall to shed some light on getting access to bootloader and unlocking will post link when upload done

We did that with the Rise, nobody had any luck decoding it in to anything useful yet.
