What is crt animation I see it in my rom control options on aokp

Its the little flash whenever you turn the screen off like an old crt TV.

Stupid me thinking encryption my data would be cool.. after I installed custom Rom (Eclipse ROM), now I am having trouble mounting my SD Card.

Now the phone often reboots itself after the ROM install, it's killing me.. so I want to do factory reset, and go back to original condition. but not able to because of the encyption.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Have a look at this thread. Otherwise, go back to stock by following this procedure.

After 2 hours, i am getting no where with their instructions

I am offering $20 via paypal to anyone who can help me restore to factory condition (Factory image)

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Did you follow the procedure here as I had suggested?? That will take you back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
Wouldn't it still not work because of the encryption?

Anyways, unless you have lots of business documentation, there's no reason to encrypt your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What I posted WILL work, as it wipes the partitions using fastboot. Fastboot does not even look at what's on the partitions - it just flashes and/or wipes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolfx35:
Step 3: I didn't get any any prompt on my device.

That's because your bootloader was already unlocked. You are good to proceed!

Did you unpack the zip file that contains the system.img, userdata.img, boot.img and recovery.img??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolfx35:
efrant, you are the man.

since I am a man of my words. :)

Send me your paypal id. I will send you the $20
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:

I do not take donations -- I'm not here to make money, only to share my knowledge, just as those that came before me did with me. ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolfx35:
you are a good guy. I respect that.

thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mickliddy:
To remove encryption from my device, I didn't have to touch the system partition. I used fastboot to erase the userdata partition (this does irreversibly destroy all user data, as is implied).

fastboot erase userdata

Didn't require anything else after that.

added boot.img support in kernel

thus for us, it means we can tinker with locked bootloader kernels too now :)
[Android] TAL333:
That sounds really neat. Thats really impressive. So, is it possible to tinker with the kernel.sin file in an update package and get a working ftf file from it, kernel cooker? Hmm? And if so, how? :p
[Android] championswimmer:
thats easy

take a kernel.ftf file which was meant for unlocked bootloader.

open it wit zip/rar/7zip/bzip software (yes ftf = zip )

replace the kernel.sin inside it with the one you have.

while flashing, the version might not show correct but once flashed, you'll find your kernel running fine :)
[Android] TAL333:
I got impatient waiting so I tried a bundle creation through Flashtool. Since my phone isn't bricked I figure that works too.

Any chance at getting rid of a boot splash screen when it's been compiled within the kernel (zImage)? Adding to this, the developer refuses to release their source code (needless to say, he does not post his ROMS / kernels on XDA)!

Hello Champ, I hope all is going good with your studies and life.

I was using the kitchen to work on my ION and have noticed that in some menus you state what phones this works with ,2010, 2011,2012. but I have noticed in your OP it says different things than in the menus. My question for you is what parts will work with my 2012 ION? And have you any suggestions for boot.img tools?

as always thank for your time and be well.

[Android] Toledo_JAB:
I think it is set during kernel compile. In the configuration menu

~Jaramie

from my LT28at tweaked with Ice Cream all over it. :)
[Android] mpoendi:
No, it's not that. It just name when i flash using flashtool. But not kernel version name that appear on the "setting > about phone > kernel version"
[Android] Deadly:
yes you both are right.. @mpoendi.. you need to edit this file to get what you want in setings-->about-->kernel version..

/common/scripts/mkcompile_h

Edit that file and you can get the name you want..

and ToledoJab was right... you need to edit it before kernel compilation..
[Android] mpoendi:
Well, got to try this. Thanks mate... :D:D:D:D

But, where /common/scripts/mkcompile_h is?

Is this command on my linux, or in ramdisk on my kernel?:confused::confused:
[Android] Deadly:
That's the path for the file I gave.. you execute make command inside common folder right? In that folder open scripts folder and you will find mkcompile_h file.. edit the lines I told u in quote.. your file won't have compact and nitubhaskar.. so edit those lines..

Using Android Kernel Kitchen

championswimmer, thanks for the instructionals.

I'm kinda having difficulties though. I'm using ThP's kernel for Xperia P here. Currently trying to decompile it myself and edit (actually, remove) the bootsplash image that it has. I managed to decompile the kernel (boot.img) but to get to the image, I have to extract the initrd.img, right? Trying to do that but the terminal returns this error:

I'm pretty sure I'd have to install that cpio thing...could anybody tell me how to do that? :p I'm a really newb noob here, so yeah..

-or- if anybody can help me straight up and change/remove the boot screen, it'll be much appreciated. :) I'll be attaching it here. Again, this is ThP's kernel for Xperia P.

Cheers!

EDIT:

Got to compiling the kernel now, but when I flashed it, it didn't work. Only showed a blackscreen (essentially bricked my phone, but managed to restore it)

it returned this error btw:

Type the name of the configuration file you want to use and press [Enter] to contiue

Hi,

Am I late to this party? ;) Great work and great ideas, championswimmer, although I have yet to try it out.

Sorry to bring up an old topic, but I saw this post from your thread, from a few months back, and it referred to my kitchen:

Just want to make it clear that my kitchen does not download or contain a boot.img from any ROM (which potentially is a GPL violation if someone posts it publicly in a ROM), and I'm not sure where this idea came from. Of course, you can use it to edit a ROM that you would've needed to download separately.

So were there any 'illegal' issues with your kitchen that needed to be addressed and fixed? (Hacre's always been a grumpy guy.. :P but he usually means well and has been helpful to people in the past.)

Sorry to hijack this thread, carry on... :good:

Guys

Just need a little help.

Managed to extract kernel.sin from my Xperia V.

I ended up with my

zImage

ramdisk.cpio (which includes the cpio image)

header-file

[Folder]

ramdisk contents

I make my changes to default.prop

Repack using option 4 from kernel kitchen

Which give me my new ramdiskcpio .gz which includes the new cpio image.

What do i need to to get the new kernel.elf made?

I have the zimage, RPM, cmdline.txt and ramdiskcpio.gz, but, no ramdisk image

Do i need to convert or make a ramdisk image from the cpio file for it to compile the kernel.elf file?

Quite new at the kernel side, any pointers are appreciated.

Cheers
[Android] championswimmer:
Rename it to initrd.img and will do :)
[Android] spida_singh:
Nice one, regarding the .img extention, how do I change that from .gz, renaming the file wont change its file type will it? Or do I need to extract the new image from thr .gz file, and rename that to initrd.img?

[Android] spida_singh:
tried it it, no go, i have a feeling it's cygwin, ill set-up a linux vm, always best way, and try again.

Extracting the contents of the .gz into the input dir allows me to continue the build, i select xperia v, but, kernel doesnt boot.

I tried your RPM.bin and cmdline from your .484 kernel.elf, still no joy. Will keep trying.

[SOLVED]

I found the issue, when packing ramdisk:

Option 4, then 3, it would create a .gz file, this was never read by the kitchen, it always threw an error advising it was not found

I followed the ramdisk pack command in This Thread

After performing my default.prop edits.

Navigated to the ramdisk folder and executed the following command in cygwin

find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip > ramdisk

Looks to be option 4.4.. :D

I took this new 'ramdisk', the 'zImage' from the extracted .10 kernel.sin, your RPM and cmdline files from the extracted .484 kernel and created the kernel.elf using option 3 then 2.

I fasbooted the kernel to my phone, and it boots fine.

Only thing is, will the cmdline file cause any issues? as this is the only file which may differ from firmware to firmware. Ill see how it goes, and will create another kernel.elf using the required cmdline from the source readme of the .10 kernel for the Xperia V.

Cheers
