Hi there!
Following the hadk pdf from jolla porting guide.
I've got the sailfishos working on terminal android running. Booting on top attempting since monday tonight.
I'll explain more and I'll give more shots on working.
My issue now is to build the boot, recovery image to flash and boot it. The jolla sailfishos as a GUI operating system on Galaxy S3 I9300 model.
FIY : filename = sfa-i9300-ea-1.0.8.19-my1.tar.bz2
Instructions for chroot co,pilation on ubuntu amd64 x86_64 bit:
Code:
sudo mkdir -p /srv/mer/
mkdir -p $HOME/mer/
nano .bashrc
export $MER_ROOT=/srv/mer/
export $MER_ROOT=$HOME/mer/
ctrl +x to save and y
but type sudo apt-get install -y curl
for do the downloading file.
next do the following commands on terminal:
export $MER_ROOT=/srv/mer/
cd $HOME; curl -k -O https://img.merproject.org/images/mer-sdk/mer-i486-latest-sdk-rolling-chroot-armv7hl-sb2.tar.bz2 ;
sudo mkdir -p $MER_ROOT/sdks/sdk ;
cd $MER_ROOT/sdks/sdk ;
sudo tar --numeric-owner -p -xjf $HOME/mer-i486-latest-sdk-rolling-chroot-armv7hl-sb2.tar.bz2 ;
echo "export MER_ROOT=$MER_ROOT" >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'alias sdk=$MER_ROOT/sdks/sdk/mer-sdk-chroot' >> ~/.bashrc ; exec bash ;
echo 'PS1="MerSDK $PS1"' >> ~/.mersdk.profile ;
sdk
Now, do the following instructions:
$HOST>
nano $HOME/.hadk.env
export MER_ROOT="[/home/$user]"
export ANDROID_ROOT="$MER_ROOT/android/droid"
export VENDOR="[samsung]"
export DEVICE="[i9300]"
ctrl +x and y for save it.
nano $HOME/.mersdkubu.profile
function hadk() { source $HOME/.hadk.env${1:+.$1}; echo "Env setup for $DEVICE"; }
export PS1="HABUILD_SDK [\${DEVICE}] $PS1"
hadk
save it again
nano $HOME/.mersdk.profile
function hadk() { source $HOME/.hadk.env${1:+.$1}; echo "Env setup for $DEVICE"; }
hadk
now save this file.
Now in ctrl + alt + x, it will show a terminal:
type this:

back again for
hadk
cd $HOME
mkdir -p $HOME/mer/android/droid
repo init -u git://github.com/mer-hybris/android.git -b hybris-10.1
repo sync
after this, you will have HABUILD_SDK
DEVICE=i9300
export $DEVICE
source build/envsetup.sh
breakfast $DEVICE
now type
make hybris-hal
But now as a ota file for flashing on i9300, in this last 2 days in my laptop core2Duo Extreme I'm facing overheating.
So, everyone can test it.
Code:
A little change on mount fixups.
Go to the directory hybris/hybris-boot
nano mount-fixups on i9305| encore)
put the "i9305" | "encore" | "i9300")
Script for booting sailfishingos on an android terminal. This script is to mount the binds folders and for fixing for preventing the /dev/null issue when we all boot the chroot sailfishos.
name of the script : sailfishos.sh - made it on the /extsdCard/ folder.
1) nano /extSdCard/sailfishos.sh and copy the following code
2) ctrl +x to save it
3) bash sailfishos.sh
Code:
su
mount -o bind /dev /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/dev
mount -o bind /proc /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/proc
mount -o bind /sys/ /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/sys
chroot /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/ /bin/su -
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
Code:
Procedures:
1) get cm 10.1 flash it.
2) recovery mode to flash it.
3) download my sailfish i9300 tar.bz2 from d-h.st
4) Copy it for your /extSdCard
Code:
Procedures inside adb:
1) sudo adb kill-server
2) sudo adb start-server
3) adb devices
4) adb shell
5) su
6) cd /extSdCard/
8) mkdir -p /data/.stowaways/sailfishos
8) tar --numeric-owner -xvf filename -C /data/.stowaways/sailfishos
9) mount -o bind /dev /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/dev
10) mount -o bind /proc /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/proc
11) mount -o bind /sys /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/sys
finally:
chroot /data/.stawaways/sailfishos/ /bin/su-
you'll see sailfish os version something 15
try this on it:
cd /
ls
[LINK] http://d-h.st/gX5 [/LINK]
See folders on it.
PS: I'll give more shots also more instructions very soon. Thanx.
Another PS: I'll give more news about Jolla sailfish os very soon.
But I need to tell this, I've got i9300 defconfig kernel for Jolla sailfishos very similar to defconfig i9305 kernel and I got it compiled with very success on hadk Ubuntu chroot on mine Ubuntu 14.04 LTS version.

how to install ?
When I had the rom for flashing in recovery. I'll explain it.
For now, it can be installed through the adb, to work it inside the android terminal.

any update on this?
I followed the above procedure and I can see the Sailfish version and the files list from adb. What next?
EDIT: Just saw your PS in OP
In the end of the week probably I'll release the boot kernel working on.

I've successfully built boot and recovery images, packed the zip for flashing in recovery but there is a problem with the boot.img.
I'm trying to find out why it doesn't boot (the phone stays at the galaxy logo)
The actual guide for porting misses some stuff and there are errors here and there. Besides, there is a problem with the trusty chroot, quantal is working.
Aye. I've notice that.
I'm fixing some issues in quantal chroot.
E.g. inside the sources.list I add the 12.04 lts mirrors. Made by a website with the sources.list for 12.04 lts mirrors.
Yeah. I've done the boot kernel image and it made the same as you.
But with meld diff I've compared the i9305 defconfig with mine i9300 defconfig.
I'm going to test it with the changes meld diff made with a comparison with i9305 defconfig.
Now I made a make systemtarball and I'll try a make bootimage or a make factory_image for it.

It would be great if you could make it to boot.
I will try to compile the kernel with CONFIG_CMDLINE="console=tty0" . I'm hoping that would direct kernel panic message to the screen so we could idenfity what the problem is with booting hybris-boot.img
So... Any development?

Hi, I've also been trying to port sailfish os to i9300. I've been successful in creating an image that works, i.e. got it to boot into sailfish but there are some issues that I haven't been able to fix, like for instances, the wlan is detected but fails to establish a connection with any network, GSM is also not working. A full list with details can be found here https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris
Maybe we should try to work together to get a fully functional sailfish os image
Cheers

The phone may be stuck at the galaxy logo, but there's a way to debug to find out what's wrong, follow this steps (only tested on linux):
1) connect your phone with the computer, the initramfs in boot.img will create a network interface (phone's ip is: 192.168.2.15) and enable a telnet deamon (default port: 23) and also a udhcp server, so luckily the computer will ask for an ip that everything will be set up automatically. If not try configuring static ip (192.168.2.20 and adding a route to 192.168.2.0)
2) telnet 192.168.2.15
3) when you're in the telnet session, you can check /diagnostic.log (i think) it will show why the boot failed. It is possible to execute commands into the init, by writing to (/init-ctl/stdin)
When logged into the telnet session it will dump a bit of information, be sure to read it as is useful .
Also check HADK 9.2 Operating Blind on an Existing Device
PS: the files may contain mistakes as I wrote this post without checking for the correct names (I don't have sailfish flashed at the moment).
Also consider visiting the IRC channel (#sailfishos-porters), if you're not doing it already
Hope it helps

well maxAndroided all I can say at the moment is that the OS looks very promising... the UI is very smooth. Is another approach to mobile interaction based on gestures. I'm really loving it, sadly I can used it for day to day activities yet.
The jolla phone at the moment is able to run android apps and hopefully soon that will be available for any image built for android phones. So what that means is that if you don't find a suitable native app for sailfish os, you can always run your favorite android app in sailfish os
Anyone that wants to help bring sailfish os to i9300 is welcome to help, so if you have any idea on how to debug and fix the issues let me know
PS: if any one would like to try it, take a look at my previous post here

@rusty88, I am no developer/expert, but is there any way we can try and use I9300 native libraries or binaries to make GSM (or some other functionality for that matter) work? maybe RIL libs/binaries for GSM?

yes @msri3here technically that is what i'm doing, its using RIL lib based on cm10.1.3 that was working fine before I flash sailfish, but on sailfish the log that RIL daemon dumps is really a mess and haven't figure out why is failing. One thing that I've notice is that RILD (one of its child process) creates the socket at /dev/socket/rild but it's killed afterwards, the sockets disappear and the process restarts all over again
Stracing RILD is not helping either as it seems that everything is Ok.
I'm trying to buy a new smartphone for day to day use so I can dedicate more time to debug on my i9300.

and in su
Please add *.dat files to repacked tar.md5 file
Thank U so much for this Great tool, It is the first time I use it, And when I test it on SM-G360F firmware, All steps runs very well, But when I use the Build Odin Flash ROM to make the tar.md5 file there is a file lift behind it is the sec.dat , This file is included in some new samsung models, So it will be very helpfull to add it to the tool
for this SM-G360F model I used the Qualcomm Snapdragon option, But can what option to use for Samsung GT-S7582 Galaxy S DUOS 2?
Thanks Again
Update: I opened the build_flash_rom script and add this line into it
Code:
find . -maxdepth 1 -regex '.*\(.dat\)' -type f -exec mv -v -t "$INPUT".tmp {} \;
echo -e
So is it right? Now the sec.dat file is inside the repacked flash rom
I9060 - I9060i
Please any one test or know if I can use this tool for:
Chipset Broadcom BCM23550
Spreadtrum SC8830 - GT-I9060I
CPU Quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7
and what option to select?
Please Any Help
I need some help in using this Great tool, But until now I got no answers
And I do not want to just make posts here and there to get my first 10 post to be able to ask in main thread

I do use it to unpack and repack one file for SM-G360F, But i do not know what option to select for working with other models like I9060i, S7582 for example, I looked at gsmarena for cpu type for both and none of them is on the tool.
Anyone Test this tool to unpack and repack the SM-G920F firmware files?
and how can I use the new:
android-5.0.0_r2
android-5.0.2_r1
android-5.1.0_r1
android-5.1.0_r3
as when i run the tool aI only find 4.4.4 version and below
I tried to rebuild the image of "system.img". After removing unneeded applications I get a working system image. But if I add a file or directory (for example, SCS), the firmware does not start, hangs on the splash screen.
I have added the SElinux contexts to all files, but i still have a problem.
PS. Yes, i use an android-4.4.2_r1 tools. System version is 5.0.1.

My phone has 16mb recovery part but the recovery.img I made is 25 mb so I can't flash it In BoardConfig.mk, I can wrote at least 24.936.448 at the line of BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_SIZE to compile the recovery image. How can I solve this problem? Can I reduce the size of the .img file to 16 mb?

I don't understand how you ended up with such a big recovery... The biggest ramdisk I saw (in TWRP) is not more than 4-5 Mb. Do you have a kernel over 20Mb? It can't be, otherwise the stock recovery will be oversized too. Somewhere you made a mistake probably.
And to answer your question, no you can't reduce the size of recovery that big; if you have a kernel compressed in xz, you may try to compress the ramdisk in xz too, and the size will be smaller, but not enough... you need to downsize it with 9Mb, which is not possible.
So check again, to see if there isn't a mistake somewhere.

I took a screenshot of my CM11-0/out/target/product/msm8226/root folder which is 25 mb. There is a boot.img file. I think the problem is that file. I unpacked a few recovery.img files but none of them included that file. If problem is this, how can I remove that file from my ramdisk?
I removed that file and flashed new recovery.img but now my phone isn't booting in recovery mode.

No, for checking recovery root you need to look here: CM11-0/out/target/product/msm8226/recovery/root . But anyway that folder looks strange (I see a perl script there)....
Check my screenshot below.
And type a
Code:
make clobber
before stating a new build, or
Code:
make clean
between repetitive builds.

You need to be more specific: what recovery you try to build, in what environment (if it's not cm-11), and post a link to your device folder tree. That error means that the compiler can't find an init.rc file to add in ramdisk.
Compiler stops after a few segments
This is shown in my terminal:
Code:
cp: cannot stat ‘/home/paul/cm-10.2/out/target/product/Ultra/root/init.recovery.*.rc’: No such file or directory
make: [/home/paul/cm-10.2/out/target/product/Ultra/recovery/root.ts] Error 1 (ignored)
mkdir -p /home/paul/cm-10.2/out/target/product/Ultra/recovery/root/system/bin
cp -rf device/CherryMobile/Ultra/recovery/root /home/paul/cm-10.2/out/target/product/Ultra/recovery/
cp: omitting directory ‘device/CherryMobile/Ultra’
make: *** [/home/paul/cm-10.2/out/target/product/Ultra/recovery/root.ts] Error 1
[email protected] ~/cm-10.2 $ make clobber
And you wrote about the problem:
During the build process you may encounter some errors or warnings.
*********************
Code:
Code:
cp: cannot stat `/home/carliv/CM11-0/out/target/product/P780/root/init.recovery.*.rc': No such file or directory
make: [/home/carliv/CM11-0/out/target/product/P780/recovery/root.ts] Error 1 (ignored)
This will not stop the build, and it appears if you don't use a init.recovery.{hardware}.rc file. Can be ignored, as the build process does.
Though in my terminal it just stopped at that part so I had to rename mine which was originally init.recovery.qcom.rc to init.recovery.*.rc
--edit--

I fixed it... Turns out that it was just a BoardConfig.mk parameter that I forgot to complete
Calculate proper BoardConfig.mk partition sizes
I have this log:
Code:

Meaning I have wrong sizes for the partitions so I need help on it...
When I ran the following:

they both return: No such file or directory...
Now If I run the command: cat /proc/partitions
it comes up with this:

Help required for compiling CWM for android 4.4.2 version only?
I am on Ubuntu 14.0.4 and I am trying to build a CWM recovery for Celkon Q 5009android 4.4.2, Broadcom processor). I have set up build environment and currently working on syncing repo. I have heard that it takes too much time and disk space to complete this process. I am interested to know in the following particular scenario : want to build only CWM recovery from source for an android running on version 4.4.2. So do I have to download all repositories or is there any shortcut that would enable me to not download all, but a certain part that is required for android 4.4.2? If yes, how to go about it? please help.
Please help. I do not undertstand why 'repo sync' always fails at a particular stage, though I have 30+ GB of disk space available in my working folder named 'cm12'. Following is the last screen message :
Fetching project platform/external/ant-glob

Now should I run 'repo sync' again or should I use 'repo sync -j1' ?

Hey,
In which size are the values in BoardConfig.mk at BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_ZISE? bit?
And how I can convert blocks to this size because my lge only print out the partition sizes in blocks.

Hi. Your guide is the most useful I found on the net. Much more than the official cyanogenmod wiki's porting one. Thanks a lot.
I'm trying to use it to build a cm 12.1 (lollipop) cwm on a mediatek device.
1) My stock rom (also Android 5.1) already ships a fstab.mt6795 file into the ramdisk. I moved it inside /recovery/root, and copied its content in /recovery/recovery.fstab
This is its content, should I make any change inside it?
Code:
# Android fstab file.
#<src> <mnt_point> <type> <mnt_flags and options> <fs_mgr_flags>
# The filesystem that contains the filesystem checker binary (typically /system) cannot
# specify MF_CHECK, and must come before any filesystems that do specify MF_CHECK

3) My stock rom obviously already ships a init.mt6795.rc. Should I merge any of its lines to the one I copied from /bootable/recovery/etc in my /recovery folder?
Thanks in advance for your time and your efforts.

First let me ask you where did you find a cwm for lollipop to build it? I'm interested to see that.
Second in recovery fstab you may want to add emmc partitions like boot, recovery... Check my github and look at elephone p6000 device folder (it's close enough to understand). If internal sdcard is on data/media you don't have to add it at all in fstab (at least that was the rule for kitkat... again I need to see the source for that lollipop cwm to tell you exactly). In elephone device recovery fstab you can see that usb and external sdcard are defined as auto for type not vfat because it is better to let minivold manage that.
Normaly for cm12.1 ther is no need to copy any rc file in root, only the fstab. {hardware}, which you said you did.
Again I can tell more if I will see the source code for the recovery, and last thing my guide is quite old now but I'm glad you found it useful.
Thanks for your quick reply.
I think I've not been so clear explaining what I'm doing: when I talk about "Lollipo CWM" I just mean that I'm working on 12.1 branch of cyanogenmod source tree, that as you know is based on the same sources of Lollipop, instead of the one the guide was originally aimed to.
1) I feel really dumb at this moment. I don't know exactly how many time I read that fstab file, and I never noticed that it lacks entries for partitions not managed by stock recovery. Sorry if I wasted your time with a stupid question.
2)For sdcards, then it's better to leave untouched the voldmanaged options, but change the filesystem type to auto?
3) I don't need to copy any other .rc file (init.mt6795.usb.rc, init.xlog.rc, etc...), nor to merge anything from init.mt6795.rc of the stock rom. Right?
Thanks again.

I did understand it's cm12.1, but that was my question since there is no cwm for cm12.1 only cyanogenmod recovery which is different. At the moment I only recommend twrp for cm12.1+ and for that you have to use a different fstab, easy to find on github or here on xda in twrp threads.
Then, if I'm not too much confused:
- since CM12, Clockworkmod isn't anymore included in its source tree
- if I don't set any RECOVERY_VARIANT it defaults to CyanogenMod Recovery, not CWM anymore
- the recovery.img I built is, at its best, a Cyanogenmod recovery
- the recovery.fstab I used (the one i posted before, but now with /boot, /recovery and /nvram entries added) is in version 2 format, that twrp doesn't understand. So I have to find out how to convert in the old fstab format.
Am I right?
Another question: I used the last version of your CarlivKitchen. That doesn't offer anymore the choice to re/pack for standard android or for mtk images, because it automatically detect the format. But when it repacks, it adds the mtk header if the original image had it? Or am I forced to use a custom boot image maker?

Yes for all and for twrp fstab I think you can study device folders from twrp github (few are mediatek).
My kitchen now detects if image has mtk header and will repack it the same way (it stores a variable in unpacked folder which will tell that it must add a mtk header).
I decided to follow this guide to integrate the changes needed to build twrp instead of cwm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943625
It doesn't cover all the preparation steps like yours do. Do you think there are changes to be made to make your guide suitable for cm12 and twrp, or I can follow it until the " Build a CWM-based Recovery " paragraph?
Hello! After many years without development, today I'm sharing a new kernel with ZRAM and swap support for this device.
The kernel is based upon weritos' Cyanogenmod 13 kernel source code and should work on both rev. 1 and rev. 2 devices.
Installation procedure is as follows:
1. Download the latest TWRP, kernel build and modules.
2. Install the kernel and TWRP from ADB shell (the device must be booted into Android) or a terminal app:
Bash:
su (from a terminal app; not required from ADB shell)
cat </path/to/TWRP_image> > /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
cat </path/to/kernel_image> > /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
reboot recovery
3. Install the kernel modules:
Bash:
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 /system
unzip -o </path/to/modules.zip> -d /system/lib/modules
4. Done! Reboot into Android.
NOTE: The < and > symbols should never be issued within the commands!
Version Information
Status: Beta (Bluetooth, camera recording and screen recording do not work.)
Created: 2021-05-11
Last Updated: 2021-05-12 (Import and enable Ultra KSM driver.)
I still have this device, will this kernel with twrp installed fix the crashing problems in cm 13, thanks for your effort
@Krush206 it's saying can't open zip file on the last step, how to fix??

fixed it, I was supposed to write:
Code:
unzip -o /sdcard/modules.zip -d /system/lib/modules
instead of:
Code:
unzip -o /storage/emulated/0/modules.zip -d /system/lib/modules
in TWRP terminal.
However, how do I know if it successfully worked?? My phone booted up normally but no sign that shows if it worked 100% or not. @Krush206
not working

This is the reason I exported the ZRAM driver to the kernel. However, I have noticed it breaks Wi-Fi, so I will have to fix it for proper testing.

Either install Termux (or a terminal app of your choice) or use ADB and issue the free -m command.

Hi, thanks for your response. Just did i and looks like it worked, 59 total swap, used 58, and free 541.
Are you sure you checked the correct line? The total should be 255 (256), not 59.
can you compile a kernel for overclocking in stock room or cm 11 please our quttro needs it now
overclock kernel pls
Sorry for the delay. The battery of my device has swollen, so I cannot really check whether overclocking is possible or not.
However, though overclocking may be possible, it may cause system instability and crashes.
I could probably have a look at the code and see how to get it done, but I cannot post results and would not recommend overclocking.
The battery in my device was swollen, I found a battery and the best software for this device is 4.1.2. I want to try overclocking for this version. Bide 4.1.2 also does not play hd videos in the original software. Is there a code or a mod for this?
1.5 Ghz overclock pls
any update?
If you two, @Fever070720, @Turkish developers, are still looking into overclocking, please, send the output of the following command:
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq

Me too... TWRP is tricky, since it can only be done by this OneInject-function of TWRP, but it's possible. I tried the 'current' unofficial release of TWRP for this, but all i got was a reboot to BL.

yshalsager, who created the Firmware-script, told me the same.. here is his answer.

Hi,
Thanks for your words, glad to hear my work helps.
You can use LineageOS extract files script that will generate vendor tree for you. It is available in any device tree but you should use one of your device so it reads from its proprietary-files.txt or something.

Maybe LOS is closer than we think.

I'm a total beginner, so i might be wrong. But as far as i can tell, the makefiles of the extracted device tree need to be update or even completely rebuild.
Hi, it seems like I was able to execute the script successfully.
It didn't work on Windows because it got stuck on the execution of unpackimg.bat.
I ran it on Linux and it worked (after chmod 777 of boot.img). This is the command I ran:
python3 -m twrpdtgen -o ./odin ./boot.img
output:

Done! You can find the device tree in odin/xiaomi/odin
I took boot.img from the latest MIUI 12.5.7.0 China Stable
Now I have what it seems to be the device tree (odin.zip) but I don't know what to do it it or what it is.

This is great, so we know this script works and does what it is supposed to do...
I checked the makefiles to see if there are any differences, but there are none. So it suggests that it doesn't matter, from which version you get the files from. I love, that the users of the Mi Mix 4 are more open so compiling than the community of the MI 11 Ultra is..

I'm trying to replicate your steps but I get the same "Can not locate config makefile for product "twrp_odin"." as you did above. In the other topic I see you managed to get past that step.
I see you get some output after executing envsetup.sh and it seems like this is related to the device tree.
Can you please share what you did with the device tree before attempting to compile twrp? I'd like to try myself but I can't find clear instructions.

Acutally i left it completely unchanged, the only thing i did was to change the repository. I deleted the aosp-repository and took the omni-twrp-repository
(https://github.com/minimal-manifest-twrp/platform_manifest_twrp_omni)
mkdir twrp
cd twrp
repo init -u git://github.com/minimal-manifest-twrp/platform_manifest_twrp_omni.git -b twrp-10.0
repo sync
after syncing was complete, i followed these instructions
4. Build TWRP from source
A Python library/script to automatically generate TWRP-compatible device tree from a boot/recovery image - twrpdtgen/twrpdtgen

Thanks! Now I managed to get the same result as you. The error seems to be raised by mkbootimg.py:
Python:
def write_header(args):
BOOT_IMAGE_HEADER_V1_SIZE = 1648
BOOT_IMAGE_HEADER_V2_SIZE = 1660
BOOT_MAGIC = 'ANDROID!'.encode()
if (args.header_version > 2):
raise ValueError('Boot header version %d not supported' % args.header_version)
To me it seems like this Omni repo includes old version of mkbootimg.py, because in the google repos I can see that the current version of this function looks like this:
Python:
def write_header(args):
if args.header_version > 4:
raise ValueError(
f'Boot header version {args.header_version} not supported')
if args.header_version in {3, 4}:
return write_header_v3_and_above(args)
It seems like Boot header version 3 was introduced with Android 11: https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/boot-image-header
I think we can't do much with the Omnia repos until they get updated with current mkbootimg.

My question is, do the makefiles from the devicetree need to be adjusted or completely rebuild to android 11 parameters? I.e. rhe command "add_lunch_combo" is obsolete and "COMMAND_LUNCH_CHOICES" took its place..
Sorry in advance for this nooby questions...
