Why these Tags: an agent read the README and quoted it
- Device firmware from the readme:
flash the image inside to the recovery partition of the slot the phone runs from
- Mobile OS modification from the readme:
Install zips, system update packages and partition images, from internal storage, a USB drive or adb sideload
An agent gave these Tags from the fixed Tag list in the AwesomeRepos source code. A code check kept each Tag only when its quote is in the text. A wrong Tag? Report an errorwith the form at the end of this page.

The timeline comes from the creation date and the releases on the Repository Host, the Admission, the Star History, and the Observations. Star milestones show only when the Star History records the day. The list shows up to 5 stable releases from the latest 10 releases recorded. When none of them is stable, one item counts the pre-releases. On the chart of net stars each day, a solid line marks each recorded release.
