Reborn Product UI v2 candidate receipt

Debian-based Linux with a fast clickwheel interface for the Innioasis Y2.

Instructions published by the project, shown here word for word.

Reborn Product UI v2 candidate receipt

> **Software receipt, 2026-10-01.** Built and software-validated. **Not > flashed, not physically qualified.** The [Fix02 physical report](Y2-CPU-FINAL-FIX02-PHYSICAL-QUALIFICATION.md) > remains the latest observed hardware state; the [Fix03 receipt](Y2-CPU-FINAL-FIX03.md) > remains the CPU platform change set this candidate is built on.

This candidate is the CPU Final Fix03 platform with the Reborn Product UI v2 pass (product UI, navigation, platform boundary, pass record).

Platform changes in this candidate

ChangeSourceEffect
Early splash shows the Reborn marktools/graphics/reborn-splash.c, reborn-splash-mark.h, make-splash-mark.pyThe mark is generated from Reborn's own boot frame; a test proves the splash frame and Reborn's hand-off frame are pixel-identical. Only the gold rule breathes while startup continues. Console policy, handoff protocol, charger/voltage gate and 60 s failure timeout unchanged.
Backlight off before power-downtools/platform/y2_platform/power.pyAfter stopping or killing Reborn and before busybox poweroff/reboot, every backlight's bl_power is set to 4. A crashed or hung Reborn can no longer leave the fbdev-restored buffer lit.
Release identitytools/production/release.jsonRelease 1.0.0-reborn-product-ui-v2-candidate.1, root 2025.02.18-platform-v1.10, build Y2LINUX-REBORN-PRODUCT-UI-V2.

The kernel, its configuration and modules are the Fix03 source: the built zImage and display.ko are byte-identical to Fix03's. In the initramfs only sbin/reborn-splash changed intentionally. sbin/blkid differs because Buildroot overwrites the build-time RPATH with X filler of the build directory's length (a different worktree path). Symbols, versions and behaviour are identical. The device tree differs only in /chosen/linux,initrd-end.

A first build from Reborn 94e79d8 was superseded before sealing by a wording fix (two empty states) and documentation; its logs are kept in out/reborn-product-ui-v2/superseded-94e79d8/.

Candidate

out/y2linux-reborn-product-ui-v2-candidate/ — MT6582_preserve_data_scatter.txt selects only BOOTIMG and ANDROID/Y2ROOT. No Y2DATA/USRDATA, preloader, LK, NVRAM, PROTECT, calibration or factory payload. Nothing was flashed or pushed.

What the owner should look at on the device

  1. Power-on: stock LK logo, then the Reborn mark on a dark background with a

    slowly breathing gold rule, no console text, no white frame, then a short dissolve into Home.

  2. The wheel: one detent moves exactly one row in Settings and short lists;

    only a sustained spin in a long library list moves faster.

  3. Hold Power → Quick Settings → Power Off → Power Off: UI fades, the mark

    shows, the screen goes black and dark, then the device turns off with no white or console frame.

  4. Settings → System → Diagnostics holds every technical detail previously

    on normal screens.

The Fix03 CPU qualification plan (qualify-cpu-fix03.py) is unaffected and can run on this candidate. A first boot of the new splash after flashing is the only way to measure splash-visible, Reborn first-frame and ready times.
