[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Ok - we need a chat that is better to talk and we can send files. But first i have to solve DSIXDA's kitchen problem in my PC!

Ok- NOW WE HAVE A UNLOCK TOLL ONLY APPLICABLE TO PHOTON Q LTE. BUT i'm trying to extract our bootloader, since in the source code, appsbootsec is named as bootloader. So, when you extract a SBF, you exctract the bootloader too!
[Android General] :
It's very hard that motorola MSM7227A/7227 devices use 2ndinit&bootmenu.

These devices have locked bootloaders,and are not allowed to flash recovery image.

The first work of all is porting CWM recovery to these devices,we have 2 ways to make the phone enter CWM recovery:1.through bootmenu 2.through flashing fake update.zip.

However we failed to use the method 1,because it don't have any binaries that can be hijacked.Maybe we can use method 2 for entering CWM recovery.BUT,it needs motorola sign for update.zip.I didn't find out any GMS update packages that can be used for XT316/XT615.
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Using an existing update.zip signed by motorola and changing some things inside don't work ?
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
BUT Take a very close look on the source code! There's A LOT OF KEYS! Platform, Media, EVERYTHING! I'm impressed!

EDIT: @Mazen.Kh WHERE ARE YOU????? Need to talk with ya!
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
OK, i changed init.goldfish.rc value

FROM=battery_charging

TO= charge_only_mode

AFTER REBOOTING, it gets back to battery_charging. STRAAAANGE!

BTW, here is a GMS Package!

Found a way to flash custom roms for my xt311 that worked

Flashing custom rom ? FASTBOOT WORKS :)

1- Port your own custom rom

2- Make system image with mkfs.yaffs2

3- Wipe your phone

4- Connect the xt311 / xt3116 / xt317 / xt530 / xt531 / xt532 to the computer with usb debugging Enabled

5- Type "adb reboot-bootloader"

6- Type "fastboot flash system <Name of the image file>"

7- Type "fastboot reboot"

Then enjoy custom rom, i need more people to test this method please.

If bootlooped, wipe again from recovery

if still didn't work,

flash sbf and add these steps before step 6

5.1- Type "fastboot erase system"

5.2- Type "fastboot erase data"

5.3- Type "fastboot erase cache"

If you still bootlooping, then your rom is corrupted :P
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
BETA TESTER!!!!

OMG - Now it's real - i can't BELLIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVEEEEE!

Please mkyaffs!
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Haven't test but awesome !
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
I only made a modified rooted stock system.img and tested it,

i'll try to port cm7 and tell you the results.
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Anyway, before exiting myself (wanna have miui ^^ ) I would like to backup entirely my rom.

How can I do that ? I'would like to reflash it via fastboot in case of pb (I haven't any other phone if something goes wrong)

Anyone can help me ? Or give some hint.
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Ok - you can upload and pass to me via PM, since i'm not using GTALK anymore. That was the last time before upgrading to a Mac! But first - we need to support ALL of the languages, MoreLocale 2 doesn't work in your ROM, so we need to translate manually. This ROM is already rooted, but have your data, your apps and much more. If we want to get a new ROM working, we need a ROM:

- ROOTED

- With NO DATA

- A couple apps (like: Play Store, Google+, Facebook, Evernote, Foursquare, Instagram and such other things. My ROM will be modded with those apps)

- A BASE (Like: VIVO 2.3.5 Base)

Ok? If you want some help, PM me.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Well, this won't be my perfect rom, i'll just make more tests, then we will start real romming

and @asphaltsnatch search for online nandroid backup here on xda you can make nandroid backup without cwm it's awesome,

then you can restore backed up images with fasboot, i tried that with system.img

and by the way i'm at the final stage in my second test, i just need to make the system yaffs2 image with correct permissions to the files and folders

and @mr.indigo you can still use gtalk on web from gmail. and we can send files on 4shared
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
NP, but i will use a SBF files, i have them here and it will be easier than NANDROID-ing my system to get my ROM. I will include:

Instagram

G+

Asana Unofficial client

SuperUser

PlayStore UPDATED

Xda free

And a couple more apps.bstay tuned for our ROMs in a few weeks!
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Nandroid backup online appear to have worked well. I hope my backup will work.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Alpha testers

Asphaltsnatch, Mr.indigo

i need Pre-alpha testers

This is the rom link :) ported cm7, try it for me i need testers ! if it worked i will make my mods and start real rom making for this phone, i hope to god it boot

And i have new and easier steps:

Put the system.img in the same folder with adb and fastboot, and make sure all phone drivers are installed and fone is connected.

1- Type : "adb reboot-bootloader"

2- Type : "fastboot erase data"

3- Type : "fastboot erase cache"

4- Type : "fastboot flash system system.img"

5- Type : "fastboot reboot"

I JUST WANT IT TO BOOT !! AS LONG AS IT BOOTS THEN WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK!

If the rom didn't boot you have to know that now the error is in the rom not in the phone, because i tried this method with rooted stock rom and worked

If you want to revert back to stock/ or what you've been before flashing, flash SBF file or flash nandroid backup with fastboot
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
how can i be sure that my rom backuped is not corrupt (i can't use sbf file because i'm running Kubuntu -no windows at home- )

I would like to try to reflash my own rom first before yours.

Thx
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Ok, what do you mod on your ROM and what ROM we will use?

Oh - and post mkyaffs2image
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
adb reboot-bootloader >>> reboot my phone and freeze it... :(
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Normal. DON'T DISCONNECT THE PHONE OR FASTBOOT WILL EXIT!
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
no no i've writed a mistake it's adb reboot-bootloader that fuuu- freeze my phone.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Here's the link for the alpha rom :)

http://www.mediafire.com/?i600hwcky2astz1

download and test for me please ?

and for asphalt snatch, when you adb reboot-bootloader it opens fastboot mode which consists of motorola logo only ! that's not freezing

all the fastboot comands are made from windows not the phone

and for mr. indigo, i didn't use mkfs.yaffs2 i use another tool for windows called yaffey here on xda
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Ok but then, the fastboot command didn't work, adb command still showing : <waiting for device> no more.
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Ok, i will test! You mkyaffesed it?
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
OK. I will hope it works. WISH ME LUCK AND PRAY TO WORKS!

It goes to recovery. Wiping data now...

NOT WORKING!
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
I'm praying little green droid
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
NOT WORKING

Stays on M Logo, then reboots, then goes to recovery.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Maybe the problem is in the rom we ported from!
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
BASE is 4017-DMQ

PORT is....?

[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Porting from c660 lg , can anybody logcat to see why ain't booting ?
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
I dunno WHY it's not booting. I will try to get a binary, something like that ^^
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
At least we found a way to nandroid backup and restore without cwm

and we can flash system images with success that means that the problem is in the rom
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
What if we manually delete cda partition before flashing ?

i think we should do this and fix libs permissions with yaffey and retry, one by one
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
Edited somethings in the image and saved and flashed it..

Doesn't boot to recovery but doesn't boot to anything at all.

whether stuck at splash or stuck at bl
[Android General] vasuhsm123:
Well, I have an XT311, if you want I can test your roms on my device, if they work for the XT311. but you have to guide me on how to flash the rom and how to revert to stock sbf, I am kind of a noob here. I see that this is quite a work in progress, been waiting since a long time for a custom rom for this device.
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
Start by doing an android backup thanks to Nandroid Backup Online.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
well i think that onandroid backup doesn't work well on our phone, the data.yaffs2 is always corrupted

system and sd-ext2 work fine
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
And why it is corrupted ? Onandroid backup propose to install yaffs, i've did it. So... ? I don't why it should not work.
[Android General] vasuhsm123:
made the backup, now trying to uncompile it using unyaffs.

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

Corrupted it is.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
yeah, lucky me that i had pulled some /data/data and /data/app files to restore them with adb manually

any way i found something wierd

there are files or file inside /data/data when deleted the lock screen doesn't work

and the airplane and silent mode in the power menu disappear and the home doesn't work, lights up keyboard but doesn't function

and search button work but the quick access option doesn't work and quick search boxdoesn't respond when pressing search in homescreen

can somebody look for that/these file(s) ? i want to disable the lock screen totally without using an app like nolock

if somebody did "fastboot erase userdata" will notice the changes i mentioned above.
[Android General] vasuhsm123:
Do you have the name of the file?? Because I have access to the data/data folder using root explorer.

and one more thing i need to know, because Motorola are complete asses and aren't allowing unlocking of boot-loaders of more than 4 devices I need to know whether the phones are somewhat signed by different companies using some sort of a signature. I unlocked my friend's htc explorer and I was wondering if we could use their website to generate the unlock code file for the device. Might just work. I might be completely wrong here, I have just started android development. Sorry if I'm just being stupid.
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
Uh... i tried to unlock BUT stays at the 3 dots....

What's different in ATRIX's unlock SBF? What changes?
[Android General] asphaltsnatch:
I think that you're hypothesis isn't so stupid, because that motosh*t is assembled and configured by foxconn like many other devices so...

Any clue, idea or other must be logged here, because we have many way to explore.
[Android General] Mr.Indigo:
HINT: Look at the source code. Interesting things are there !
[Android General] vasuhsm123:
I guess we go into the fastboot mode by giving the command adb reboot-recovery? Then when I give the command to give the unlock data, it stays stuck on the 3 dots :(

porting the rom is not so difficult a job, I recently found out. One thing that I need to know is that I need the motorola stock rom. I made the backup and unpacked the system.img file. Is that what I need to edit and flash or is there something else I need to edit as well? And how do I flash it? Will flashing work if I sign the zip and flash it from the stock recovery?
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
i think you meant adb reboot-bootloader

anyway you can't flash with stock recovery unless your rom is signed with motorola signature

and you can flash system.img with fastboot
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
i tried to flash xt317 recovery

now the phone doesn't boot anything except download mode

the pc doesn't recognize it in rsd lite

what the f*ck should i do
[Android General] vasuhsm123:
if you made a backup, why can't you try flashing system.img with fastboot??? anyways i'll be making a custom system.img after some time before i gain all the knowledge required to do the same.
[Android General] Mazen.kh:
it doesn't boot anything ! except mbm flash mode !

i need somebody to provide me with the correct newest drivers

somebody help me pleeeaaasee !!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] telephonemike:
Hi,

I have searched the forums here and not got a clear answer so this is the reason for my post.

Lets say, "my friend" has a Android phone that has official ICS in it but has yet to be released to the public. If this friend was to share it with another friend how might he go about extracting the ROM including the radio file so that it could be flashed to another device?

I see that Jade kitchen is talked about quite a bit but not a simple process and from what I can see it might not copy the radio file.

Any help would be great.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whodisname:
Hehehe not sure if this will work but I'm interested to see. How about the friend with the ics root it and cmw, then make a backup, make sure its in the SD card. Then restore it on the other phone by switching cards? Just an idea from a noob ;)

[LG Optimus 3D] andriu123:
Well, I have questions about O3D

1. It's safe to flash v20p (from p929 AT&T) to my p920 ?

2. or if I have V10k (froyo) can I safetly install roms from p925 LG Thrill from LG Thrill 4G android development (ex. Mokee for p925) ?
[LG Optimus 3D] MinedSafe:
Generaly I would not recomend flashing with a software not designed for your model. Just look how many people have bricked their phones by playing around.

1. 20p has US baseband so if u live in Europe then dont flash it.

2. Before u start flashing GB roms u need to bee on GB baseband. So the first thing is to flash Italian 20E kdz or I would rather recomend HonKong 20g. Then root the phone and install CWM ( do not use the app from play store, use the program provided here in the forums )

If you are on ext4 u need to change it back before doing anything. And do not use nandroid restore made with froyo ;)

Hello

I'm running quite low on space on my Desire and I would like to get the CM7r2 hboot, but I can't seem to find any posts saying if it's safe to flash a new hboot without losing data?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Depends what ROM you're using, and whether it supports the hboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swedishbob:
This might help:

1) Nandroid backup in recovery.

2) Verify the MD5SUM of the file you downloaded against the one in the table.

3) Flash HBOOT with your phone in fastboot mode (Back+POWER) -> 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img' (change into the correct filename for the HBOOT you downloaded)

4) 'fastboot reboot-bootloader'

5) 'fastboot erase cache'

6) Boot recovery, wipe everything and restore.

So i haven't used link2sd but i've read many good things so i'm trying it out on my OG evo while I wait for best buy to call me and tell me my evoLTE is in. For those that already have the phone can you give me a simple walk through for partitioning and which format to use, ext2, ext3,ext4, etc

i just did a partition using amon's recovery and made a 2gb ext3 on the OG evo. about to download link2sd and give it a try

edit...i have my evoLTE but I'm hesitant to partition my 32sd card.. any input anyone??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
double post
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] notsointeresting:
I don't think you'd need to use link2sd. Maybe phones with 1gig of storage like on the OG EVO but the LTE has 16 gigs internal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
16gigs internal but i thought only 2gigs was for app data...did i read that wrong, i'm pretty sure only 2gb are allocated for apps
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
yep i triple checked....2gb for apps
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
for anyone interested Link2SD works fine if you make the partition ext2, I made a 8gb ext2 partition on my 32gb card and moved apps over to the sd just fine. I saw multiple posts about people wishing they could store their apps on the external sd, well this is one way
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ailima:
As of version 2.1.1 Link2sd will NOT work on El Tevo. It doesn't recognize the external sdcard. It only recognizes the internal flash ram - which is not something I want to partition at this time.

Particularly since I'm waiting for a non-HTC method of unlocking the bootloader and I have no custom recovery/nandroid.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
i have v2.1.1 and it works just fine...i moved apps to my partition on my external sd card just fine and i saw the memory on my internal memory get larger as i moved. All the apps that i moved work just fine as well
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] megabiteg:
Hows performance? Most of the time you take a hit on that area when you run any type of apps to SD programs ...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dahray02:
I haven't noticed any change in the apps i moved to link2sd....i didn't move any apps that deal with music or video though like Netflix, slingplayer, YouTube. so just be smart about which apps you move, but it works great

How would you change the partition? I've been trying to figure out how to save my apps on my 32gb since I got this phone. Link2SD doesn't detect my external at all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jre1981:
Use a programm like Minitool Partition Wizard, there are others that are similar but i like this one because it is simple to use and allows youcreate a second partition on your SD without having to format it. So you don't have to backup and then put everything back on the card again.
