After comparing ucld3 and the new ucld4 for a while. I gotta say I'm gonna stick with lcd3 seems better still to me. Although this new one definetly isn't a bad choice just not as good as ucld3.

Update:Actually you know what they're both like neck and neck I can't figure out which one is better. Damn it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rav4kar:
my experience :

ucld3 modem = ucld4 modem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Gutterball:
Yeah I see your point and you're in new jersey too so.. guess its just not me thinking that. Only thing that did seem a little different is. at work I seemed to have been getting more bars in certain places then usual on ucld4 but as far as speed I'd say they're neck and neck basically. Not that my speeds are great on any modem though! I'm lucky if I could hit 2 Mbps lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rav4kar:
except kk6 modem that i rolled back to kh7, rest uclc and ucld* all are one way road... :D

OK, I have searched. I have been searching since the first leak for the i777. How, please, how do I extract the images from this damn one-click? I understand all of the risks. I get the bootloader bs. I am sure that I will fry/brick/kill, whatever, this thing at some point. I just want to be able to pull the images and be able to flash them with my Mobile Odin if I decide to. Is anyone willing to point me in the right direction?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Seanbest:
Love it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
If you look at the old UCLD3 thread (I think that was it) I gave info on extracting the image.

The basic idea is:

Use a hex editor to find the start of a tar file. The start will be a file name 256 bytes before the string "ustar" in the file. There are three tar files within the oneclick.

Once you've found the start offset, on a machine with dd installed:

dd if=oneclick.exe of=mytar.tar bs=<offset> skip=1

The offsets for modem and factoryfs were given earlier in this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raduque:
For you, maybe. I disagree. If I wanted AOSP-stock Android, I'd have bought a god damned Galaxy Nexus.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Hulk smaaaash!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n2dp:
Thanks Entropy512. I did read the post in the UCLD3 thread and I am able to find the offsets using HxD. It is a good start. I am struggling with the dd.exe thing though.

I typed:

dd if=leak.exe of=factoryfs.tar bs=13914713 skip=1

I get:

The output path is on a local drive. Specify the --localwrt option if you want to write to a local drive.

So I typed:

dd if=leak.exe of=factoryfs.tar bs=13914713 skip=1 --localwrt

I get:

The input blocksize, 13914713, is not an intregral multiple of the sector size, 512!C:\FAV.x64\factoryfs.tar: A required attribute is missing.

There are no more files.

F/M...ijdk

But, thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. I don't know how I missed the UCLD3 post earlier, although wading through all of the "mean girls" bull**** that gets mixed into these threads does make it difficult at times.

And have to spend 400 on an off contract phone that Imo isn't as good?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nakedninja42:
Are you using windows or linux?

Factoryfs.img is not the first file to extract in this build. If you search the file with ghex in linux, you'll see zImage is first. So find zImage and get the hex code. Change hex to decimal and type in

dd if=leak.exe of=(name you give for the archive it creates) bs=(the decimal #) skip=1

It will extract the zImage and hidden,cache,factoryfs. Then search for modem.bin and extract.

I uploaded the one I put together. Its ODIN flash withOUT bootloaders. Waiting for AJ Newkirk to give me the greenlight to post it with his kernel.

I haven't tried on windows. I use a VM for Ubuntu. Check out VirtualBox from Oracle and download Ubuntu. It would be a lot easier for you to learn it from Linux since a lot of instructs on xda are for Linux. Its good to have if you decide to try to build CM from source.

uhm... at some point in time you used a ROM that was Samsung based - and used the banner in your sig.

This Samsung vs AOxP thing has been done & redone way too much.

This thread is about the UCLD4 leak.

I think it is the best i777 leak thus far. The modem is working nicely in my area as well. For a kernel, I compiled the latest Entropy512 ICS sources without mic swapping. It works very well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Frankly, yes. Why join xda if u want stock Samsung firmware? I guess if u want it EARLY it makes sense. Whatevs. After running AOKP I could never go back. You'd have to inject me with a mind controlling toxin. Good luck all, happy flashing.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
Yes... if you use the kernel that comes with this you may well be hard bricked.

I would not use this as it 1)installs new bootloaders and 2)may have a very unsafe kernel.

I tried posting a safe version for people to use that has no bootloaders and a known good kernel, but Red5 closed my thread because I won't offer official support (hey it IS a leak...and I don't remember task offering to support the leaks he released in the same manner...but whatever.).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
He stated why he closed it. There's already a thread posted by Kenn about this. Red doesn't do shtuff for no reason. But it is cool yer trying to help the community bro. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Well difference is this is a one clicker, that is an actual flashable zip. ;)

I was thinking the same thing, but Task is known around here so you might want to shoot Red5 a message he might have mistaken what you posted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
Yes, there is a thread about the leak. There is not a CWM flashable release for the leak that has been deoxed/zipaligned/rooted/bootloader removed etc and has a known good kernel.

Just trying to save people from more bricks. I hope people know better by now and will not use that 1click.exe file.

South here trying it now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trell959:
Were you going to upload it I a flashable zip? I think red5 mistakenly thought it was just an Odin packaged leak.

Yes.

Yes and notice it is a gingerbread rom, I used it on gingerbread and before it was discontinued. ICS is a different story and stock android is far superior to gingerbread.

So if we are coming from stock kernel from UCLD3 leak, are we safe to flash AJ's zip normally? I remember hearing of CWM hard-bricks while using the UCLD3 kernel few weeks ago.

Also, I thought Entrophy's kernel wasn't compatible with ICS leaks?

Also, thanks for the zip. Looking forward to the upload.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
If you are coming from the "stock" UCLD3 kernel,

make sure that you do not perform a wipe while that kernel is installed.

Just flash another kernel such as the 1 in this post without wiping.

After you have replaced the kernel, then it is safe to wipe and/or flash a new ROM.

Entropy's kernel is compatible, but by default it has the microphones swapped - more of an i9100 configuration. This allows us to use i9100 ROMs on our i777.

I simply did not enable that microphone swapping when compiling the kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raduque:
I still like to modify and customize my phone, but I prefer to do it on the stock Samsung firmwares. I also still like reading about what the devs are doing.

Hello there, Just realized there have been issues with stock UCLD3 kernel. I've been running that leak on my phone without problems but from what I see other people have got serious bricks.

Am I in risk just by using the stock UCLD3 leak? Or the risk will really be if I do a wipe with that kernel on...

thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karate104:
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's only if you do a wipe/restore with that kernel on. I probably would stay away from making a nandroid with it too. Just flash a new kernel over it without wiping anything, then do your nandroid and go from there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bookem11:
I've used UCLD3 leak since it was released without any problems, but it seems some people are having problems hardbricking. Just to be safe I flashed Siyah's kernel over the the stock UCLD3 kernel before flashing/wiping/backup/restore/or anything else. (I wanted to try out AOKP).

I then did full wipe data/reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The UCLD4 one-click downloader includes the modified bootloader, but the return to stock with root does not. So you still have the custom secondary bootloader installed, it looks like.

Edit: Wait, what is this "¢ w/ SGH-I717" ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
That would appear to be the result of your new bootloader, installed when you used the 1click.exe .

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Correct - Don't wipe (not even from stock recovery or Settings - Note users have gotten nailed that way), don't flash anything (most packages format system before flashing), don't Nandroid restore (partitions get formatted before restore)

The structure of tar lets you start midway through the file. factoryfs is the first file we actually want, since we absolutely don't want the zImage.

WARNING: Even if I777 ICS goes official, there is a VERY good chance the kernel will still be affected by Superbrick. It just happened to the Note community - XXLPY has been killing at least 1-2 devices/day since it was released last week.

I believe my STT SGS2 is hard bricked from the UCDL3 Leak, does any one know of any fixes?:mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The bug was in the kernel that came with that distribution. If you did a file operation, I think a restore of nandroid, using that kernel, then if your phone has an emmc chip that was at risk, the bug damages the emmc chip. If that was your case, then jtag repair will not work. The only fix is to replace the emmc chip which probably means replacing the mother board, which probably means you'll have to replace the phone. I havn't heard whether Samsung is taking responsibility for the damage, but the bug was theirs. I doubt it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Diesel5187:
Thank you, but KMN!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Specifically, the following operations can cause damage:

Wipe in stock recovery

Wipe in CWM recovery

Nandroid restore in CWM recovery (formats/wipes before restore)

Flashing some firmwares in CWM recovery (If it's an ICS update-binary and it attempts to format a partition - bad news)

Once damage is done there is currently no way to repair it. Google has the ability to repair it internally but it appears to be covered by an NDA with Samsung, and Samsung has not given permission to release information on recovering dead devices.

Even with this information, it would require JTAG recovery as it requires fully wiping the entire chip including the bootloaders. (Right now, JTAG recovery can't fix these devices.)
