[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technecium:
I have a Korean Tab 10.1 wifi (shw-m380w). It seems there is no development going on with this device on this side of the pond so I'm kind of on my own. There are no ROMs or updates at my disposal so I need to get the kernel off my device before I start flashing new ones onto it.

Here is what I've done and know ...

I've dumped the partitions mmcblk0p1-10. There's a system, cache, etc. which can be mounted via "mount -o loop PATH PATH" and obviously the kernel does not reside in any of those. The remaining partition dumps (mmcblk0p{2,3,6,7,9}) vary in size and I am guessing from past experience the kernel is between 6-8mb. These dumps do not mount as they are not "formatted" like system. cache, etc.

Can anyone suggest how to use the dumped data for getting a kernel that can used to extract initramfs and be flashed in the likely event my kernel does not work as expected? I have seen mention of using a hex editor to locate unique strings that match the kernel start and end points.

Currently the only other option is to wait for another update and extract the kernel from there, but I'd rather not wait and who knows if there will be a kernel in it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
No idea how to answer your question, but since you're Korean: there's a rumor that Korea got the android 3.2 update about 2 weeks ago. Can you confirm/deny? Here's the link:

(BTW- I can't read it, so forgive me if it's totally wrong. Google translate seems to say that theres a 3.2 update, but maybe something is lost/wrong?)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technecium:
I'm actually not Korean but don't fault me for that, just live here.

Yes, this model is on 3.2 and at the time I had no plans to work on a kernel, so, I didn't think to store a copy of the update. Kicking myself in the ass now for it.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
!!! I don't know anything about it but is it possible to use Odin to put CWM on there, then flash an old ROM, then try updating again? I'm sure some of the Devs here would love a copy of the 3.2 update...

Wow. That would be very upsetting if it took that long for an official ICS update.

And to think I actually left my device S-on and unrooted in hopes of getting this update before Christmas. Shame on me.

As soon as we get CM7 stable, I'm done with stock. Done with HTC Sense. Done with waiting for HTC and T-Mobile to get us updates (I know I'm late to the party :) )
[HTC Sensation] nory82688:
Lol you thought we'd have an update this year, that's kind of funny dude. HTC is good with updates, but not that good. And I've been running cm7 since the cm team dropped it on September 11 and its very stable. Just because they call it an alpha doesn't mean it's buggy or laggy.I think it runs very well like the nightlies. But if I were you bud I'd s-off and root because when the galaxy nexus is released, Google will be releasing the source code for ICS and there will be ICS roms asap and cm9. Or just get the galaxy nexus like I'm planning on doing if you want ICS lol but seriously, you'll have ICS soon, it just won't be official.
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
The moment ICS gets dumped on XDA, it's gonna be a race to see who mmcan get it stable first. A "friendly" competition, if you will. #yearightlol.

[HTC Sensation] unfnknblvbl:
I am confident that we'll have CM9 running on our phones long before HTC deigns to give us their Sensified interpretation of ICS.
[HTC Sensation] ilbulgaro89:
I remember the Galaxy S situation last year......

Same phone as NEXUS S , but the updato to Gingerbread (released in mid dicember) is arrived in May
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
I'm probably not gonna wait around for HTC.

soon as stable ICS rom becomes available from our wonderful developers I'm upgrading.

lot of the Sense features are on ICS anyways.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
How long does it take to turn source code into a stable ROM? I'm not a programmer or developer so I have no idea lol.

I'm gonna stick with my sensation, but I'm scared to unroot and flash haha.
[HTC Sensation] UKseagull:
Interesting, that may cost HTC some sales if other phones will get similar features to Sense.
[HTC Sensation] -juanito-:
we will get offical ICS if apple devcies get iOS 6 !!

htc should just send ICS for sensation..then after 3 months bring Sense 4.0
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
Based on past experience, HTC won't release an update until a few months after a new flagship device shipped with a new Android version is launched.

So let's say HTC announce a ICS flagship device in late Dec or early Jan, which will be shipped earliest a month after that. Say early Feb. Add two months to it, April sounds plausible.

As soon as ICS source code is released, probably within days you will start seeing custom ICS roms popping up here. Most of which will be crappy and unstable (although everyone will claim "lighting fast! Super stable!" in their thread title). I would say a month after ICS source code being released, quality ROMs will start rolling out.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
I hate the break the bad news to you, but the Sensation is now officially the "red headed step child" for both HTC and the carriers around the globe. It was intended to be the flagship Android device when it was released last June, but HORRIBLE quality control lead to massive shipments of faulty devices. HTC still won't admit the issue, although the carriers now openly mention it and will even offer you an LG or Samsung device as a replacement no matter how long you have had your Sensation. With the new Nexus device about to ship, and a handful of other ICS devices on the way, HTC is in a world of hurt. They didn't get awarded the contract for the Nexus phone and the Motorola/Google merger is going to crush their bottom line. Let's also not forget about the snooping software HTC "mistakenly" installed on this phone, which they have just started rolling out updates to remove. In summary, the Sensation was intended to be a market leader. Due to multiple internal/external issues at HTC that never happened, and now they (HTC) are trying to play catch up. The other issue is that HTC has newer phones on the market which have pushed the Sensation to the back of the line when it comes to upgrades. The Sensation is caught in the middle of the newer phones who are competing against the newest version of Android. Sure, ICS will likely come out for the Sensation by Spring/Summer, but at that point the phone will be a year old and nobody will care.....
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
Thanks for your insight
[HTC Sensation] vitusdoom:
lol. nice thoughts! but for some years here in xda, whos still waiting for these "updates" when there are devs that surely be porting this as soon as source comes out? @_@

and to add to that, haven't you learned that HTC is like a brick itself? like the unlocked bootloader they promised? so many people asking them about that and trying to tell them stuff, but they decided to play by their book and it just ended up xda devs coming up with a different way to unlock the bootloader. so, don't trust them, they put some crazy stuff on your phone and won't tell you that they bugged your phone for some unknown reason. thats why there's xda-developers :)
[HTC Sensation] izmenar:
i dont think it will be that late ,january at the latest we should have something, beta, leak , CM8

Google I/O 2012 is on April 24 and i think they will launch another version of android then
[HTC Sensation] gypsy214:
i thought their said the that ics will come to others devices after 2 months its released! well i wont say nothing the fat lady aint sang yet
[HTC Sensation] jdkzombie:
Im not really worried about the ICS update from HTC. I myself have been lucky and have had ZERO issues with my sensation, but as fast as the quality devs here can roll stuff out we will have 4.0 before too long, and this being a back of the line phone? i dont buy that. It can be considered an entry level dual core phone, but with the custom ROM's and mods available for this thing, it has the ability to blow more powerful phones off the chart.

I must admit im waiting for the Nexus Prime, but until then i'll enjoy the sensation, and probably always will. :)
[HTC Sensation] unfnknblvbl:
do you have some kind of source for these claims? I've not heard a peep about this stuff from other users here or any news sites.
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
They didn't say anything about releasing the source in july right? Hopefully it releases the same time as Galaxy Nexus. I don't see why I would want an OTA when there's a CM9

I could provide you countless other links, but in this case Google truly is your friend!
[HTC Sensation] apex84:
If I'm not mistaken we would have to wait for HTC to release the source for an Android 4.0 compatible kernel to be able to run CM9 on Sensation. Or maybe the devs can patch together an Android 2.x kernel for compatibility? I'm no programmer so I'm not sure what I just said makes any sense... but apache (provides the CM7 kernel for Sensation) said that they based their kernel on source code from HTC, I guess due to the aSMP CPU in Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
Don't think so. The g1 had kernel till 2.3 when official was till 1.6 only
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
His source is his brain. The nytimes link he posted has nothing to do with the "HTC Sensation problem" he claimed. The xda link he posted is just user rants that you can find similar threads in every device board here on xda. I had my Sensation since July and has 0 problems so far. Don't forget that people who have problems with their devices are way more likely to post in forums like this, and so these are not random samples.

And honestly, from HTC point of view, not getting the Nexus device contract really doesn't matter. The Nexus One and the Nexus S were never the best selling Android devices, and I should say they sold fairly poorly compared to other top Android devices. And since Android is open-source, not making the Nexus device doesn't mean that HTC can't make ICS phones. They never cared about producing devices on their own with stock Android to start with anyway.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
I never claimed that link had something to do with the HTC Sensation problems. My comments listed (among other things) Google's acquisition of Motorola Mobility as something that will have a tremendous negative impact on HTC. Motorola Mobility is the division that makes Android phones for Motorola. Now that a major competitor is out of the market, and now that Google can manufacture their own devices, do you honestly think they will be outsourcing handsets to HTC any longer??
[HTC Sensation] unfnknblvbl:
So basically what you're saying is that you're trolling, right?

you claimed multiple major manufacturing defects but could only pull up a link to a thread here on xda to back it up. I follow many news sources on a daily basis and haven't heard a peep about any of this.

The Google buying Motorola thing is old news. It's doubtful that it will have any real effect on HTC's bottom line. In case you hadn't noticed, Google haven't outsourced to HTC for a while now anyway.
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
Does it matter? As I said earlier, the Nexus devices were never the best selling Android devices, and they merely served the role as a reference design for each Android build. Honestly, they never felt the love from the carriers and thus never got heavily advertised and never sold well. HTC has not made any Google branded device since the Nexus One, and yet its sales broke its own record every quarter. In case you haven't read the news, they are the highest selling smartphone manufacturer in the US the last quarter.

It doesn't matter whether Google would outsourcing Nexus contract to HTC in the future. Android is open source, and HTC can continue making their own Android devices.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] voluptuary:
Ok so I was reading in the Focus forums and I came accross this thread and thought perhaps we could build/find a really good set of combinations for the Samsung WP7 devices using all the ROM that have turned up in the wild.

For example perhaps we could use the Rogers ROM mixed with a AT&T rom to get an unbranded (i.e. no carrier apps/boot logos etc.) but still retain all the proper regional setting. As I stated in the other thread I don't know enough about what each file does myself I need some help in that area, but as they are all signed they can be mixed and matched and still flashed to the device.

Here is the thread with Omnia ROM's.

Here is the thread with some Focus ROM's.

I think becuase we don't have an unlocked boot loader like HTC phones this may be the best shot Samsung devices have at 'custom' ROM's.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
You could try extracting the system.sin from the stock FTF (with winRAR or similar) then do "fastboot flash system system.sin". And if you want the stock kernel, extract kernel.sin and do "fastboot flash boot kernel.sin", or flash DooMKerneL which I find is vastly superior to a stock kernel

This is a direct FXP046 port to xRecovery so that people with locked BL can also enjoy this great piece of work from FXP Team.

It is 99.9% FXP. I only add in some files to make it run on Free Kernel (4.05.4 with modified ramdisk) and using xRecovery.

Credits:

1. FXP Team - for this beauty and their dedication in this project

2. Z & J, doomlord, azuzu - for too many things to mention

3. Tkymgr aka Goro - for the kernel

4. All X10 devs - for keeping the phone alive

5. All rom users - for testing and helping each other.

I mentioned in his thread that the problem could be kernel related but people can run fxp44 kernel on fxp30 with no problem so I'm confused.

My intention is to let people with locked BL to enjoy this rom too. Did I claim credit for this or anything? Why are you so upset about it?
