Will the user.log and especially the last-kmsg + the .bak one be produced as well if kernel is tar'd that way?

It will helps (me) a lot if a Devil .tar could get someone out of bootloops with no recovery access...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
yes, it is. this is done at boot time, independant from the way you flash it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
hmm, odin is stuck while flashing.

did prepare the tar exactly as i wrote...

any suggestions what i did wrong?

greetz,

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Sorry, no. It should have been working.

Flashing it with cwm seems to be "save", too, with the new initramfs.

Could depend on the soft used to create the .tar?

If I remember on ginger i was using izarc to get working tar.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
to me nothing feels safe these days... *sigh*

right now it seems i'm forced to odin my device back to life and restore some backup and hope it doesn't end in this damn bootloop again.

this is making me mad, no fun at all, my sgs doesn't like me anymore i think.

greetz,

sUsH
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
Sorry it's not the place but... @sUsH667, you have kind of complications to get out of a cwmless bootloops issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
yes, i do. get it really often, can't even safely wipe dalvik without being thrown into this nasty bootloops again... so often that i'm thinking to put odin into autostart, armed with the FixRecovery.tar.md5 or some old gingerbread-kernel-tar... ;-)

why you ask?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
Same for me :( ,seing you trying to get a Devil .tar version (tried Izarc?) i thought you may didn't know ways to get out of it (now i know it's not the case,sorry for thinking that) and even if you'd know sometimes it's more complicated to recover from this than just (for me) cm7 initial .tar+any other kernel or MnIcs.tar...thought you were on same "complications"

My main goal behind is understand those f*** bootloops process ;)

Hmm,if by "chance"you grab a last_kmsg of any unexpected nocwmbtloop you know the place?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1627689
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
for me, after all the bootloops i'm thru, it is absolutely not understandable what triggers it, one time it's cleaning dalvik, other time restoring (a good running) backup, then flashing some kernel (doesn't matter if odin or cwm), and so on. and for me too the cm7initial isn't always working, often enough i end in what i call the recovery-bootloop, i think you know what i mean. this is even more disgusting cause you can flash what you want and wipe as hard as you want, you end up in recovery all the time, so you have to go to gingerbread via odin and do the whole damn dance again... :mad:

i'm really looking forward to the day, when finally the cause for this bootloops is found... for now, i say ics is the cause, lol, cause i never had it on gingerbread...

greetz and thx that you wanted to help me!

sUsH

EDIT: yes, reading the bootloop-thread, too, thx...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JimmyNZ:
I'd also suggest odin didn't like the .tar. I recommend generating it in Cygwin if you're on a windows box.

7zip, winrar etc all ended up giving me the same result as you're experiencing, but that could of course been user error ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SGT John Doe:
Maybe a dumb question, but i want to do it right.

If i want to flash devil2 kernel "running with icy glitch atm" is it just to flash it, or do i have to change some settings first?

I've read somewhere that changing from mtp to mass store is a good thing before flashing, but i have no idea if it is the same for devil2

GT-I9000 @ Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
IZarc is the key ;) (for windows at least)

Well it's the same as boot.img with Heimdall but if it helps peoples (as me) not used to it here's an odin .tar of Devil2_0.92_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25071013/zImage.tar

Unfortunaly,on my way to identify cwmless bootloops (presuming this one will help me to recover from as initialCm7 and MnIcs does) i didn't get any /data/last_kmsg log,just user.log and boot.txt
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
have you flashed the created zImage.tar already? with success?

greetz,

sUsH
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
Yup, but if in the future it helps me recover from CwmlessYouKnowWhat i didn't got no last_kmsg, so it'll be same thing as MnIcs:recover but no informations on what happened before (I'm unable to get last_kmsg via adb every time i tried :o)edit:but this one has logger by default, it could help?

Oops:@DerTeufel, sorry for creating off topic discussion here, i don't even know if a tar is needed by users nor if it hurts you in a way that i posted it so let me know...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Bejda, I'd suggest to Odin a gb firmware with repartition ticked, this seems to have helped me a lot. I still get occassional recovery bootloops, but the normal repareable ones are gone and the overall frequency of them has reduced significantly.

I can't use 0.92 kernel on latest MIUI scotland build. Because it breaks video playing + recording. Tried f4k patch no chance. bigmem option enabled.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
I don't get this I think. Bm always breaks 720p and there never has been a fix.

I must tell more clear,

When I enable bigmem

echo "2" > /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable

I can't play any videos like youtube and cannot record 480p videos.

but when I enable XL Ram

echo "1" > /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable

I can do everything.

I modded semaphore manager. Now it works for your kernel. It enables XL ram or Bigmem. TWRP options etc
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lippol94:
Try enabling bigmem via init.d script echoing 2 to /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable and then flash the F4k zip for huge ram support.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lippol94:
Have you tried removing the xl folder in the root of you phone and then flashing F4K patch? AFAIK every boot if bigmem or hugeram configuration is active, the kernel copies libs from /xl folder to /system/lib/

It's just a guess..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
You can't remove the libs, they are compiled into the zimage.

But I also suppose, that they are causing it. In latest version there only are copied xl libs, if xl is selected. For bm, no libs are copied, because I thought it is useless. On previous, " non mem selectable" versions, the xl libs were used for bm, too.

I know, but he should be able to remove them from his phone after flashing the zImage, shouldn't he?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
Maybe Galnet kept the habit of tweaking the media_profiles.xml and it conflict in a way?

Really don't know but i'll try to grab one,let's say "stock", from cm9, other miui v4 or else to check if there's differences or just put it system/etc, reboot and see...just a based-on-nothing feeling i have (and they're often stupid ;) ).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Yes. It should work until next reboot. But would be good to know, if this really is fixing it. Then I can change it later.

It's also not working for me, so it is a not miui related

I'm very sorry if this has been mentioned, but I haven't seen it. Will you ever implement some sort of control app, like midnight and semaphore? Using command center works great, but I imagine it would be a bit more user friendly with an app.

Just flash it

This script is not doing anything by default. Just delete it.

Maybe there is something in the updater script... can you upload it?

Flashing a kernel worked just fine.

I don't know anything about java. If none is going to code it for me, there won't be an app.

I also did not want to simply take hm cabride's app, because it is know as Stratosks app.

THAT is the warning you're talking about i presume,it's on glitch OP:

WARNING : THIS KERNEL IS USING MASS STORAGE USB MODE BY DEFAULT (TEAMHACKSUNG'S CM9 DEFAULT SETTING). IF YOUR USING A DIFFERENT ROM AND IT IS USING MTP BY DEFAULT, MAKE SURE TO SWITCH TO MTP IN GLITCH RECOVERY JUST AFTER FLASHING THE KERNEL, OR YOU'LL END IN A BOOTLOOP. YOU CAN THEN SWITCH TO MASS STORAGE IF YOU WANT AFTER A FIRST BOOT.

I don't think you got anything to worry about this when coming from glitch to devil. Furthermore you are already using mass storage so... If problem you have (never knows) it shouldn't be related.

Hi,

I'm sorry for the noobish questions but I have to ask them:

1. How do I flash the ODIN version? I tried to put the .tar.md5 file in PDA and flash but it says something about md5 sum invalid.

Meanwhile I flashed via CWM but I still want to know the answer for that.

2. How do I even write the commands in command center? I want to change the RAM and all I see is two dump commands(?) I don't know what they are.

3. How do I enable smooth UI for the governors? Or are they already enabled?
