i found the content he posted at 7S and it works but whats this about patches?
I do see there identical but is that bad?

The FbBuild patches need to be ported for each kernel revision. The addresses of instructions/functions change and the registers may even be different. You can have a good file system in the build dir, but if you don't have a proper patchset it isn't going to work very well.

i understand a little of what you said above. ^

so who made it and when will it be fixed? Did RUBBERS make it because that's who posted it?

I do not know. I was just shown a 13604 file system. Which is a start, but it is essential to port the patches to reflect changes in the 13604 HV and kernel.
I believe you would also need to modify the builder/firmware to accommodate 13604 correctly.

In this case not so much... between 13599 and 13604 hv and kernel only changed version numbers.

well hopefully whoever made it fixes it the correct way.

As a matter of interest do you know what exactly has been changed in 13604?

That's always the mystery about these updates. (-;
xam.xex changed and other files may have changed as well. It is very hard to tell exactly what has changed.
