All you need to do is to use custom kernel on JB. :) And for rooting GB, you have all written here. You just need to repack your stock kernel, from your firmware file. In second post on first pafe is written how to do that too.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] CrushedBananas:
I've used two different custom kernels, wasn't any better. I tried once I'll try again rooting GB, but again by device is not rooted even after step 9.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] shut_down:
As I said, use your stock kernel. Do this, remove md5 extension from your firmware (that you doenloaded from sammobile or samsung-updates). Open it with winrar or 7-zip, remove all except kernel.bin.md5. And you will have nameOfYourFirmware.tar with kernel.bin.md5 inside of it. Use it for second flash, step 10. Install superuser (not supersu) and you have root.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] CrushedBananas:
Yup that's it, after installing SU, root was acquired. Thank you.

I just don't understand why I need the kernel from my original firmware. I use this kernel. It seems that any kernel for I9070 GB will work.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] shut_down:
Because that root kernel is buggy. And yeah it should work with any other kernel later, but we didn't have confirmation of it. :D I suggest you use CoCore for GB. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] CrushedBananas:
I installed i9070_kernel_CoCore_v4.1_TWRP thanks for the advice, but if you can use a kernel from any firmware why is everyone requesting to repackage their firmware kernel, why not just use the XXLD1 kernel.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] shut_down:
In time that root is created we didn't have any custom kernel. :angel: And after that, no one tried that way you did. So it left like it was, that we need stock kernel to overwrite old one. ;)

Hello Advance users! I can't belive that this tread is still active from time to time. I am very pleased that people can still suprise me, after few months I got another donation, from an advance user and I was very surprised. I chek on your forum from time to time, just to see how the community is doing and how this phone has developed in last year. I am happy for you, that you can now choose from different roms and kernels. Allmost all the donations that I have recevied, were used for donations to other developers, that is my way to give something back to the community. Well thank you for every thing :D!

Have a nice day everyone!

You should remove the md5 endin, and unpack it again with WinRar or /zip, then send mi kernel.bin.md5 file from there. I will make a flashable tar for you to root your phone.

Yes you can root it with no problems, in step 10 just use XXLD1 kernel, it is packed in the GT-I9070_root.rar file.

Good luck!

You could try root it, but be sure to have the original firmware from sammobile.com on your pc, if you needed to restore your phone. I don't know about custom roms, some must first port CWM recovery.

How have you rooted the phone?

I mean did you unsecure the kernel or integrated the superuser binaries?

Well, if anyone gives me output of

in terminal emulator then I may attempt for Building CWM Recovery although I don't promise, just for a user request visited here :)

Also I need stock recovery image :)

Recovery image cannot be such big

Pass on kernel to me and also I need output of mount command in terminal emulator
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] qzem:
I've added su binaries, cause I didn't know how to make it insecure.

You can download GT-I9070-root.rar, and first extract xxld1.tar.md5, then from this extract kernel.bin.md5. This is the kernel, you can unpack it with this script:

https://github.com/mistadman/Extract-Kernel-Initramfs/blob/master/unpack-initramfs

like this:

chmod +x script.sh
./ script.sh kernel.bin.md5

I hope this will help you, if you need kernel source, you can get it here.

Good luck
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] qzem:
Yes it does trigger binary counter. Flashing original firmware won't remove it, cause samsung doesn't provide this in their public firmwares. There are some options for removing this but I don't know if any of this options for for this phone. Try searching it over the xda, and maybe contact some developer, who made such method for other phone.

Hello!

First, I apologize for this case here (because there is no posting on the subject in this forum. I9070 smartphone).

I seek a way to make recordings of calls made and received on my cell and to record both sides of the conversation. I tested about 20 applications assigned to this function, and ALL they recorded only my own voice.

I did a quick search and found that it is not problems with the applications tested, but with the kernel (in my case VJLD1) that does not support this type of recordings.

Could anyone help me with this?

Any tips?

Is there some kernel to our phone that supports it to?
