[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue4004:
I'm not sure if this is a problem on my phone or my sim card.

I updated my phone thru samsung kies (it says it's a firmware for my phone even though I'm not sure if it's for Philippine-bought phone)

After updating I turned on my data packet and it seems that it's not working because despite that the icon is present in the notification part, the arrow pointing downwards(which I think refers to download) is not blinking.

And whenever I try to open the browser it says I don't have a connection.

I've already tried to compile ClockworkMod Recovery for the galaxy s+ using this tutorial:

http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/10/porting-clockwork-recovery-to-new.html

I've changed the recovery.fstab according to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1252686&page=9

Then I tried to reflash my device with my own modded rom (including bash, busybox and su and the new recovery.img). Unfortunately the ClockworkMod Recovery I've compiled this way has graphic issues (the GUI is shown 6 times on the screen) and there still seems to be something wrong with the mountpoints.

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------

I now definitely know the problem with the graphics. If you look at the recovery.log produced by cwm recovery, you see this line:

active fb swap failed: Invalid argument

This means the stock kernel doesn't support framebuffer swap. There are two possible solutions to this problem:

a) we port a framebuffer driver from another device and compile it into our stock kernel like some devs did that for the I9000 or

b) we mod the graphics.c library in our cyanogenmod source (bootable/recovery/minui/graphics.c). I've already commented the following code:

/* gr_active_fb = (gr_active_fb + 1) & 1;*/

This doesn't solve the problem, it only reduces the bug to two graphics instead of four. I've already tested that. I have a meeting this evening and I am not be able to work on it until friday evening.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] manveru0:
Update:

Following solution b I stumbled upon a patch for graphics.c:

https://github.com/ilarrain/android...mmit/5552c5b368d28434844a9b2810656f318711aae9

So all the credits for this solution go to Mr. ilarrain (Ignacio Larrain)

I've applied it and tested it and yes it works :) though if you scroll down the menu the recovery allways jumps onto the second next entry if you know what I mean :)

I've attached my compiled and modded recovery.img as zip. But be warned, there are still some bugs in it and thus my device can't get pass the cwm recovery. So I have to flash back in order to boot the device properly
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Stealthrider:
Looks like i just bricked mine while i flashed with Odin and the program crashed at flashing. Phone doesnt start anymore and also no charging symbol on USB connection...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] kebuder:
Does the download mode still work? if so no worry's.

I reckon you know how to get into download mode since you already tried to flash it.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] manveru0:
Don't flash just the recovery.img with Odin. I've never done it like that and I don't know if Odin is able to flash a single .img file!

The recovery.img is a part of the PDA file which comes from a leaked i9001 firmware (XXKP4 in my case).

My uploaded file right now is only for devs to work with it. It's not stable enough to use it!

As mentioned above there are still bugs and as soon as I get it stable I'm gonna release it as a part of the PDA.SMD file. By the way I've used the boot.img from XXKP4 as a basis.

Just also googled about this, i will get 2x150k resistors and make such one. But i don't think it will work as on the shown youtube vids the phone still can boot until the SAMSUNG logo or the phone->pc sign, which mine doesn't.

Edit:

Thanks for the link manveru0, the guy tells that

1. Pull out the battery for about 2-5 minutes, then inplace it back again. Do not turn it ON yet.
2. Connect the jig you just made. Avoid touching the resistor and pins on the back or just put a a non inductive cover around it, an electrical tape may work. The device will just turn into download mode in just a couple of seconds [B][U]without pressing any buttons[/U][/B].

So this "could" work, im gona buy the required stuff later after work and gona try it!

Give me the recovery.log, also disable /misc in the fstab & boardconfig.mk

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] manveru0:
unfortunately I've deleted the recovery log and my latest testbuld did output an empty recovery.log :)

Anyway I'm gonna upload it soon.

I've already deleted the /misc partition in the recovery.fstab. I don't see what I should change in the BoardConfig.mk since you don't define any fstab there.

Concerning the /misc partition I think we should symlink a /misc folder to the /etc folder (as they did it for the i9000 and other devices) because the recovery bootloader needs the /misc folder:

/* Read and write the bootloader command from the "misc" partition.

* These return zero on success.

*/

this is a comment from the bootloader header bootloader.h

In the bootloader.c file you'll find the line:

int get_bootloader_message(struct bootloader_message *out) {

Volume* v = volume_for_path("/misc");

By the way: where did you get the following fstab entries from:

/boot	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

/recovery	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

Update: attached my recovery.log
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] netchip:

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] manveru0:
thx for the answer. It's funny because I'm using XXKP4 as a basis for my work and the recovery_mmc.fstab in this firmware version only has the following entries:

[device]

# mount point	fstype	device	format option	mount option	[device2]

/cache	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p16	ext4	default

/data	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p17	ext4	default

/preload	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p18	ext4	default

/sdcard	vfat	/dev/block/mmcblk0p28	vfat	default	/dev/block/mmcblk0

/system	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p15	ext4	default

/efs	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p27	ext4	default

In the fw version you are using (I guess its the KG1 or KG3 version) there are the entries for recovery and boot as well. I've downloaded the KG1 version and found your named entries! Does anyone have a guess why samsung removed those entires in their fstab in the newer firmware version?

Flashed your kernel from the older thread and tried again. Can boot into normal system now, so it's much better, and I have been able to make full system backup. Somewhere in the CWM-related thread here was graphics.c patch to fix graphics issue, so you can try to apply it, if not already. Also, there was messages like "no sd-ext found, skipping backup..." but IMHO that can wait right now (if it is not desired behaviour).

Have just successfully applied some updates through it, so updating features are working too.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] manveru0:
no you ain't been told wrong. I've compiled a cwm recovery 5.0.2.6. The only problem with this version is:

random reboots and reboot cycle into cwm recovery. Both problems are known:

see here for the reboot cycle:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1291327

So either we compile a new kernel with the added fixes or somebody show me how to get the sources for cwm 4 since that one seems to work (at least netchips version does reboot into normal boot).

If somebody wanna have my compiled recovery, I've attached it. To copy it you need to use adb and your device need to be rooted (to get into root adb shell). But be warned:

You are not able to reboot into normal boot afterwards. So its useless in daily use!

push the recovery.img through adb onto the sdcard:

adb push /yourPathtoTheRecovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img

adb shell

su

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

I've tested the backup function in this version and the russian guys are right. Cwm won't finish the backup. I don't think its a bug in the backup function.
