The invention discloses a novel packaging and burning as well as updating methods for an Android ROM (
read only memory)
system and provides a solution for burning and updating the overall Android ROM
system. The burning efficiency of the Android ROM
system can be effectively improved, the complicated degree of a burning process is reduced, and the
correctness of burning can be guaranteed, so that various problems in current burning of the Android ROM system are greatly solved. The packaging method comprises the steps of integrating all files, which are required to be used and comprise a partition table, uboot, uboot environment variables, a
Linux kernel, uramdisk, system, data,
recovery and the like, of an Android ROM into a single file according to a specific
file format, and guaranteeing the
correctness and the completeness through CRC (
cyclic redundancy check) codes. The aims of quickly, effectively and securely issuing, burning and updating the Android ROM in processes of developing and using an Android flat computer or an Android intelligent
mobile phone are fulfilled.
