Loading a new build is going to mean clearing everything from both your SD card and your telephone’s memory – including the boot-loader. Backup any personal files or modified config files you want to keep from your Freerunner now! Everything else (kernel, file system and boot-loader) can be restored by flashing if required.For Android to work properly the Micro SD Card in your FreeRunner needs to have 2 primary partitions. The first needs to be a VFAT/MS-DOS (16 or 32) partition which is used is mounted as ‘/sdcard’, this is used as a storage area (for pictures, movies, music, etc). The second is an ext3 partition which Android mounts as ‘/data’, this is where it stores settings, caches, etc. Experience has shown that sizing these at a ratio of 3 to 1 works best. So if you have a 4GB card make a 3GB vfat partition and a 1GB ext3 partition.

Android cupcake for Neo Freerunner v15.

First you need is to download dfu-util and copy to /usr/bin (if you are windows user then you need to download dfu-util.exe and copy to x:/windows). Now download kernel and rootFS . Plug your FreeRunner into a USB port and boot it into the nand boot loader, hold down the aux button and then the power button until nor appears. The FreeRunner will only stay in in the nand boot-loader state installer for about 30 seconds with no activity. You have 30 sec to start flashing kernel or rootFS .
dfu-util -a kernel -R -D uImage-v24.bin
and then rootFS

dfu-util -d 0x1d50:0×5119 -a rootfs -R -D freerunner-cupcake-snapshot-v15.jffs2
