Re:Hacking Ubuntu Touch on Monday July 20, 2015 @12:01PM (#9916930)
In section "MediaTek details: Partitions and Preloader" - "CPU Init", he is talking about setting the mode to SVC:

/* set the cpu to SVC32 mode */ MRS r0,cpsr BIC r0,r0,#0x1f ORR r0,r0,#0xd3 MSR cpsr,r0

Does anybody know in which mode the system actually starts. Is it HYP or even Monitor?
