[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Paging Dr B:
You might just need to odin to stock then re-root and try flashing this rom again. Somewhere along the line it sounds like something got messed up.

What's the problem if flashing CM10 using this rooting tool? I didn't quite catch up. Can I still flash CM 10?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] karipay:
Will this tool still work for rooting T999UVLH2 (TMobile update)?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Orical:
Man this works great, I love all of the options and it makes it easier for people to do what they need to if they don't understand Odin. This is my first venture with it myself.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darren.wlsn1:
yes i can confirm it worked for me on 2 phones.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] karipay:
Thanks for the confirmation. What rooting option did you choose?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pappuhathi:
I rooted my phone using the rootkit but now cant unroot. I think the problem may be that after rooting, I got my phone unlocked, not using an unlock code but some other method (all I know about this method is that my phone says"restricted access" for a few seconds upon restarting.)

Any suggestions on how to unroot? Also, if I unroot, will I loose the unlock?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
Does anyone know if rooting with this toolkit, or any actions therein affects hboot at all? I've been having lots of issues with symlink errors when trying to flash JB roms and researching it seems to point to issues with either not having stock hboot or a partition issue.

Also, should ODIN stock and system wipe reset these things regardless?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrisram88:
Did you root it yet? I was going to root it today but didn't have time and I'm on latest ota update.

Would this toolkit unlock wind galaxy s3 ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] overground:
Really depends what you actually mean by "unlock"?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] karipay:
I was not sure what option to choose for rooting and I'm afraid I might mess up my phone so I took a different path.

I used the turorial in this thread instead up until rooting the phone without CWM (I only need to root my phone anyhow).

Try it out it is really easy.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mskip:
Wind is supported in the ToolKit but if you mean Sim Unlock then that is not possible right now.

Mark.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mskip:
Nothing in the ToolKit will affect hboot in any way. Your problems are most likely coming from the fact that you are flashing a rom that isnt from samsung. AOKP and AOSP roms are also having problems so its best to stick to the samsung based roms.

Mark.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrisram88:
Yea I was gonna go that route just wanted to make sure someone in the same scenario confirmed it working. Why didn't you flash cwm?

Thank you, worked great! Donating...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] karipay:
I'm not into flashing roms and root for me is enough.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Davidion:
Interesting, I've not heard that response to this problem before. Most people associate it with an outdated CWM, wrong ver. hboot, or something along those lines.

Thank you for the insight. If you have any other resources pointing to why these repeated symlink failure happens, I'd love to read about them. I'm confused as to why few others' phones here seems to experience this problem and would like to see if there's a workaround.

Appreciate it much!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EL_REY666:
getting the OTA from tmobile update thing..

already rooted, if i DL the update will it affect the root or would i have to re-do it again?

thanks!

edit: also now the toolkit is not reading the serial # thing and the drivers are installed but pc isnt reading that i have my s3 connected; cant access the memory etc...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
I decided to give this a try.

Its a very simple flash and I guess an easy beginner task.

All I'm doing is adding S_opener.ogg to the notifications directory.

It's not in FJs AOSP rom and I just want to flash it after flashing his updates.

I found a tool that makes creating the zip pretty easy AFAIK

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1248486

I want to mount the system, copy the file, unmount.

The default script is below.

I have three questions before I create and flash this....don't wanna brick it

1)What's our mount point?

2)On the extract directory, can I use the parent like it is or do I have to specify by drilling down? (/system/media/audio/notifications)

3)Does it unmount? Is that part of the extract command?

THANKS!

Here's the script:

ui_print("Preparing to update");

# mounting system as r/w - ATTENTION - set the the mount point

# to the proper for your device! Example mountr command is

# mounting system for Samsung GT-I5800 aka Galaxy 3

mount("/dev/block/stl6", "system", "/system", "rw");

ui_print("Copying....");

# copy system content to the system directory on your device

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

ui_print("Done! You can reboot your system now!");
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Cool project. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Yea. I thought it would be a cool way to get a better idea of what it takes for these developers.

Any developers able to lend me a hand here?

I think my questions are clear....

I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Why not team up with Jessooca. She wants to learn too. Plus I think she will get more attention than you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gwbard:
1) I find it easiest to use the "busybox" mount

-- this will always be compatible with just about any custom ROM. (no need to know the mount partition)

2) Yes, just use the parent directory

3) No, it doesn't unmount automatically (not that it really needs to anyway)

If copying system apps, you can also save some time by wiping dalvik-cache and rebooting right here in the script.

Here is a generic script good for just about anything you might want to throw into system/

ui_print("Updating System...");
show_progress(0.1, 0);
ui_print(" ");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Wiping Cache & Rebooting...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/reboot");

Hope this is helpful for you :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Thanks! I found busy box in xbin. I also looked at fjs rom script and that's what he uses. I'll give it a shot :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Bummer. I feel like I'm so close...

I have flashed three times and luckily no side effects but the file isn't there....

sbin doesn't have busybox in it but system/xbin does

So I did this:

ui_print("Preparing to update");
ui_print("Updating System...");
show_progress(0.1, 0);
ui_print("Coying Opener Notification");
run_program("/system/xbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/system/xbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Done! You can reboot your system now!");

And that doesn't work either...

The cool thing is that I'm learning quite a bit with all these failures :cool:

That's why I chose a 'simple' task
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Tried this to but it didn't work.

It flashed and said it went but the file isn't there....

Guess I'll try again tomorrow.

ui_print("Preparing to update");
ui_print("Updating System...");
show_progress(0.1, 0);
mount("/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "system", "/system");
ui_print("Copying files Opener Notification");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Done! You can reboot your system now!");
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gwbard:
You see /system/xbin/busybox while booted normally; however

when booted in recovery it sees /sbin -- trust me on this.

If you still want to use standard partition mounting try this:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "/system");
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Thanks for your help on this. I'll try sbin today. I trust ya:-)

I did try that string but it threw an error and said I had four variables and it only wanted three.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gwbard:
hmm yeah well I just plucked that one out of a ROM installer

the /sbin/busybox mount has worked well for me over lots of zip and lots of different ROMs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
Yep, that did it! Thanks

My first successful zip :)

Now to figure out how to make that the default notification.

It looks like it's in the build.prop but I haven't searched enough on xda yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
I found the default notification for the ROM in build.prop but can't find where the current default notification is.

Is that in a file similar to build.prop?

you can try putting a new one in /data/local still named bootanimation.zip

that should work.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
What are you using to move the files around?
[Motorola Atrix 2] PhoenixNghi:
1. Use Root Explorer

2. Copy to /system/media

3. Rename to bootanimation.zip

4. Set permission: tick all

5. Reboot
[Motorola Atrix 2] gvsukids:
Should this be moved to the q&a section?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Now someone (IE a dev) with more knowledge can correct me if I'm wrong but you may have a problem with the permissions. You usually want to stay away from setting 777 permissions (IE all of them ticked like you do) I have found instability that way with various files.

My bootanimation is altered from stock and is set to 744 permissions. So it should look like this:

XXX

X X

X X

In otherwords all of them ticked but "write" on group and others.

Give that a whirl and see if it fixes your issue. :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] PhoenixNghi:
^

Actually bootanimation.zip must be set to 644

x x .

x . .

x . .

To be briefer, I tick all, haha

777 in PC Linux is dangerous, but I think in this case it's ok.

Please tell us if there's something wrong
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Really? Weird. Mine is set to 744. Good to know it doesn't HAVE to be set to 744 ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] gvsukids:
Download rom toolbox. There is an option in there to install different ones.
[Motorola Atrix 2] at2smithjason:
But I heard that the boot ani changer in rom toolbox would brick the phone. And I dont think that our phone is supported for that function either.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Actually the boot animation changer in ROM toolbox works great. No issues on ICS at all.

There are certain things in ROM toolbox that can cause you to loop, or cause you headaches, ie installing a one percent mod when you're on stock 20% increments. But this is not one of them. ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cyberman007:
I am getting an error "The paste operation failes. it may be that there was not enough free space on the target file system."
[Motorola Atrix 2] PhoenixNghi:

Make sure that you change from R/O to R/W in Root Explorer or remove some app from system partition
