[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
This tablet is no different than any other dell 3840 tablet, yes it's been rooted long time ago via tethered recovery method.
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
Thanks a lot [MENTION=2472806]vampirefo[/MENTION] for your reply. I finally got it rooted with simple guide recently made by cmahindra (thread) based on your tool only. Huge thanks to you and him. Grt job u pals r doing. :good: :o

But the guide uses old tool of january by you. I tried with your new version, but TWRP buttons are not clicking options in first few attempts on my merrifiled 3840.

I took some backups in CWM but boot.img is not backing up. Also checked in TWRP version but BOOT.IMG line is missing in backup. So technically the nandroid backup is not completely working.

Can you please tell me how to take "manual backup" of boot.img of this device? I am pretty familier with adb and fastboot methods and drivers are properly installed. Please help. :(

EDIT: Is boot.img hidden in this device? Strange as I could not fine /proc/mtd like mediatek partitions.
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
Boot.img and recovery.img are both hidden, using these tools https://github.com/pm-cz/dell-venue-boot-tools by pm-cz you can get recovery.img and boot.img
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
thanks [MENTION=2472806]vampirefo[/MENTION]

oh my my, why on earth they want to hide boot.img while they give source code at the same time? Strange company. I will look into the tool and will inform if I am able to extract or not. Is there any ready guide for this you may know? please inform.

Can you give be one more information? I got 4.4.2 boot.img from unbrick folder and tried to extract it in dsixda's kitchen and it failed to get ramdisk. Ramdisk folder was missing. Do you know where does ramdisk is stored and how to unpack and repack (ramdisk+kernel) of this device? Sorry for all noobish question. But I am new in intel chipset phones/tabletss and want to learn

Thanks in advance. :good: :o
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
To unpack and repack these files are complex, you need hex editor, and I also use packing files from dell 7840, they are on Dell's open source site.
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
hex editor? Do you mean splitting file in hex-editor from particular starting location to ending location on a large file (first 100mb)? I can actually do that if starting and ending locations are known.

Are we on same track? I mean I dont want to pack kernel (zimage or boot.img) from source? I need to extract existing boot.img from fully updated rom in tablet. :( Am I lost? :(
[Dell Venue] vampirefo:
Gzip magic number 1f 8b 08

This number and everything after is ramdisk everything before is kernel minus header.
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
hi [MENTION=2472806]vampirefo[/MENTION] thanks for above hex file splitter value

I did not know its called Gzip magic number (newbie here :) )

I searched this hex but I found the first split file I got is only 30KB. Possibly my file is wrong.

I tried to split from 100mb file extracted from following partition with following command.

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 count=$((100*1024)) bs=1024 > /sdcard/mmcblk0.100megsonly

1) Is it correct partition for boot.img and recovery.img extraction from where I took first 100mb? :confused:

2) I did not get any perl scripts on 7840 developer folder on dell site. Can you give me direct link?

I am working on windows but also have working Android Kitchen. But if seriously required I will install Ubuntu and try learning on it.

Thanks in advance :o
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
[MENTION=2472806]vampirefo[/MENTION] or anyone else who can help me to extract boot.img and recovery.img from this tablet?
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
What issue are you having what tablet?

Ok Venue 3840 they're contained in what's known as the osip / osii (forgot what the acronym will update later) this here was compiled with the android ndk https://github.com/pm-cz/dell-venue-boot-tools/tree/master/merrifield_bin push the dump_images to /data/local/tmp make it executable set se enforcing to permissive and run as root it will display all images in the osip / osii and give you instructions on how to dump them.
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
THANKS A TON DEAR [MENTION=4821597]social-design-concepts[/MENTION] :good: YOU are the man friend, you are the man :D IT SIMPLY WORKED!!! This tablet have many secrets and its fun to learn :)

-a = for all known images (boot, recovery, fastboot)

Files were found extracted to same folder where dump_images was kept ( /data/local/tmp )

Was fighting since long time for extracting OTA updated boot.img and recovery.img "for BACKUP Purpose"

There was no issue but I was worried about missing Boot.IMG in Nandroid Backup. Now I can restore Nandroid Backup without boot.img and can flash latest boot.img from fastboot mode.

I hope sizes of each dumped files are correct. Please check if there is any doubt about sizes ? (Screenshots attached) :good:

:highfive: Extremely thankful :)

EDIT: Ramdisk is missing in boot.img unlike boot.img from mediatek devices. This one holds only kernel. Can you suggest me tool to extract+unpack+repack Ramdisk dump also? I want to learn making changes to ramdisk. :D
[Dell Venue] social-design-concepts:
Post the boot images I"all look at them
[Dell Venue] indiacam:
thanks [MENTION=4821597]social-design-concepts[/MENTION]

[Motorola Droid RAZR] acaprez:
this morning i noticed that my secondary email account (it's an imap google server, but not the main account) stopped syncing. when i hit the sync button i got a response saying 'unable to connect to imap.vzw.net'

when i couldn't change/check the imap settings, i tried to delete the account, but it wouldn't let me. when i go into account settings and try to remove the account it lags on 'removing account' and then eventually tells me it is unable to remove the account.

i called verizon and spoke to both a verizon and motorola rep and both said that i would have to do a master reset on the phone. i'm finding it hard to believe that you need to do a master reset just to delete an email account.

also tried creating a second account, changing the default to that one, but still won't delete, and now i can't delete the second account either. tried clearing cache for all for email apps (email, email accounts, email engine, and email authenticator) and email accounts is grayed out, but after clearing the others, still can't delete the account.

to specify this is not the gmail account required for android, but an additional account under the 'email' app. after lots of searching it seems that other android phones don't have this problem, and can't find any specifics to the razr.

thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
This happened to me about a month ago. Same response from tech support. The factory data reset works to fix it & it hasn't happened again. Do you use an app called Root Call Blocker?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] acaprez:
No, the phone doesn't have that app. It's not rooted. Kind of ridiculous that you need to master reset the phone to delete email accounts. Luckily phone is a few weeks old and doesn't have much on it, but if this happens a few months down the line it would be a huge headache to reset. Do you know if this is a Razr specific problem or related to android or motorola specifically?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] acaprez:
took the phone back to verizon today, and then it started working. not sure what happened. but second account is deleted and first account works fine. best guess is that it was a problem with verizon's imap server which locked up the mail application.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
Glad it got worked out. Mine happened right at the beginning of the first major 4g outage so it may have been related to that.

I will share galaxy Gio SystemUI with transparent and semi transparent statusbar, without any patch :), just rename the file to be SystemUI.apk, push to system/app, and you can use root eksplorer set permissions to rw-r-r and root-root for owner and than reboot.

If you like my work, hit thanks buttons :)

NB: - In ADW, go to ADW settings and uncheck wallpaper hack

- It's not appear in theme that use backgraund Statusbar

- I has changes in SystemUI, you can check out :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] c20h25n3o:
Is the clock in the center? Or just on the right where it belongs. :P.

[edit]

Clock is centered, but so is the date. So it looks fine.

But it's not transparent. Same problem I had with all the other files. It must be the theme I am using (ice10ni1c.apk). In other themes it is transparent.

Too bad. I love ICS theme, but would love to have a transparent bar.

problem

I've downloaded and replaced the SystemUI.apk from Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 ROM with the Cm7 semi transparent statusbar for galaxy gio

the problem is that the notification bar disappeared completely from the phone's screen.

i have the original kit of the Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 ROM on my sd card and i extracted the SystemUI.apk file and replaced the semitransparent one that i have previously copied to system/app . i have rebooted the phone, but no luck, the notification bar is still missing.

any suggestions and ideas are welcomed

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] AdamOutler:
I changed up my UART connection. I feel this is much cleaner and runs less wire through the nook. This makes it into a really good development device.

This new setup is made with a piece of perf-board from Radio Shack and it's held onto the nook using double-sided tape. Here are some pictures:

The wires are routed through the crack in the back cover and run to the same points mentioned in the Original Post. The 3rd connection (middle) here is Ground. Ground is the point on the board closest to the edge and furthest from UART TX in the staggered group of pins..
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] AdamOutler:
I thought I'd update this... I though I'd update this after a few weeks of working with it. The external connection works very well. It is easy to remove and replace if required with just 3 solder joints if required. The external perf-board is very unobtrusive, and does not interfere with operation.

I also found a case that works well with this modification. it's called "Mini Suit" for Nook Tablet.

If you go with this method and need a case, Mini Suit will suit you.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] acruxksa:
Adam,

In picture 3 you have a diagram that shows the pinout for uart tx and rx on the nook tablet (appears to be the left two pins of the 4 in the diagram), but if you look closely at picture 4, the top wire appears to be soldered to the top right pin rather than the top left pin as show on the diagram in picture 3. Is this just an optical illusion?

Thanks Again for all you do on these forums.!

[HTC Amaze 4G] verkion:
I just purchased this case...couple problems with it though. First it is missing the three holes in the back of the case. Not a big deal for two of them but the third hole, (just above the camera), is either a noise-cancelling mic or the microphone used for video recording. Major design flaw in this case if you ask me. I've emailed Incipio already to ask if they are going to put out a new revision but they basically just offered to replace it as "defective" under-warranty. Bleh. You guys would probably be better off going for the Case-Mate case which is essentially like the Incipio but HAS the three holes in it.

Thanks!
