[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
No...Samsung devices don't support fast boot as far as I know...and heimdall doesn't work either...only thing that will flash is the boot.img with heimdall
[Samsung Infuse 4G] blscallions:
flash_image can flash recovery.img on infuse. flash_image is available as part of git. i actually made another version of your twrp package that includes flash_image and got a different result from cwm. now it says that ramdisk-recovery is not being copied to /tmp/. i read somewhere that some devices have a cap on space available on /tmp/ in mtd. i wonder if we fall under that because i did confirm that the package isn't extracting ramdisk-recovery. we DO NOT need fastboot to flash recovery.img
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Its very likely the reduced the size of tmp to make more took for system...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] blscallions:
/tmp/ must have a limit cause i changed script to place ramdisk-recovery.img on /sdcard/ and it copied fine. that might be why in some mtd builds of twrp deez_troy was placing a few pieces in /system/bin/. that being said boot.img still contains no ramdisk
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
I was looking at the link I posted a page ago with all the things changed for mtd...saw something a little interesting...it was saying that the ramdisk-recovery.IMG is located in .../.../stage1/recovery-ramdisk.img

I'll look a little more later and see if I can make any sense out of it...but right now in visiting my sis at the hospital nothing serious...just got her tonsils removed
[Samsung Infuse 4G] freestylejunki32:
Im confused....the thread title says for ics/jb but does not work with mtd? Isn't all ice and jb Roms mtd format?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zacharysblubaugh:
The phone stock is bml which is how the phone handles partitions, data transfers to your hard drive, and pretty much anything else that has to do with reading and writing

The problem with bml is that you can't change partition sizes which is a problem for JellyBean because it requires more than the ~300mb system partition

So they converted it to mtd mainly because mtd is open source allowing for many modifications the most important changing partition sizes

This causes a problem for custom recovers like this because they open your kernel and change your recovery (usually when you flash cwm it replaces your whole kernel) which using the method replacing your whole kernel doesn't work for twrp because its constantly changing and the dev would have to make a new recovery build every time its updated which takes away time of updating the recovery and there would have to be a kernel for each JB ROM and he would be copying other peoples work which is something a respectable person doesn't do

So with all that said the old method was to open your kernel and insert the tarp recovery it doesn't work with mtd because all the partitions are now different and it doesn't know which to use and or there isn't enough room in the cache partition or ram to store the file while changing it

As you can see a very complex system to have twrp on your phone

Someone else can probably give you a a better and more accurate answer but I think that's the basics hope it helps

I also wasn't aware that cm9 was mtd I think its still bml

[Samsung Infuse 4G] freestylejunki32:
So having said all of that, if we are already running jb on the phone will Twrp work? I have twrp on my kindle and like it much better than cwm....and my kindle in running cm10 as well
[Samsung Infuse 4G] psal217050:
I believe all the JBs are on MTD format, so TWRP should NOT work.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Golden response :D

But yeah...as far as I know no ICS ROM has been converted to mtd... and when I first started this jellybean ROMs were not yet mtd format which is why it says it works for ICS/JB...at the time it did, I just switched the title to say no mtd because there was still the chance that others may still use the bml system for their job ROMs...time has proved that theory false
[Samsung Infuse 4G] freestylejunki32:
Ok thanks for the explanation :) hope you guys can get it working for mtd soon. I
[Samsung Infuse 4G] blscallions:
MG,

I think I narrowed down the problem before I hardbricked my Infuse, got the insurance from ATT so I'll call in and get a replacement. Anyway it looks like the problem with twrp is in bml_over_mtd. At the end of that script it should call flash_image to reflash the image, but for some reason on mtd it never calls flash_image. So, I rewrote part of the install script to skip over the bml_over_mtd script and go straight to flash_image to flash ramdisk-recovery directly to recovery it does try to write it according to the cwm log, but it gets a "write warning" and it doesn't take, but we never got to the write on the old method so some progress anyway. I would post the log, but like I said I hardbricked and the log was still on it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
BML_over_MTD is necessary, it is the only way to flash things to the boot partition on our device and many other Samsung devices...at least from what I've read about it...I read that info some where in our device/kernel source

Bml over mtd should not require a flash image reference that should be called on by the updater script...and I believe it is

Anyways, I'll try and find the exact info and I'll quote it here for you to read...I might've misinterpreted it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] blscallions:
If you look in bml_over_mtd.sh in your zip it does call flash_image after the bml check, which is really all that does i think. It looks to me like flash_image actually does the writing to the partition, just throwing ideas out there at this point anyway... was just excited to finally see a write dialog in the log.

Twrp 2.3 was released today and it's based off aosp jellybean. Would that help us at all?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Don't think so but I will give it a try anyways and see what happens....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] alexischino:
Hey i'm running Scott Beanstalk 1.300 jellybean 4.2.2 on my samsung infuse he have integrated TWRP recovery to this build and i wanna know if i can install twrp on other jellybeans roms using goo manager....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andros11:
Goo manager won't work.. Our device is not supported.

grab the boot.img from beanstalk & place it on the rom you want. Hopefully it boots & you end up with twrp
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
No, it has be built into the kernel (boot.img) there is no way that I know of to flash only the recovery on mtd roms...I spent countless hours trying to figure it out and never got it...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terr20114:
How can the infuse 4G get twrp on CM10.2?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] FauxAffliction:
Build it into the boot.IMG. if you're trying to implement it yourself check out their site and they should have a tutorial.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terr20114:
I'm not a dev, never tried coding in my life. Graphic designer with a great knowledge of other areas but not coding. Do you think i can pull it off n bring twrp to our i997?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Yes, its pretty simple, however as soon as a user flashes a differnt rom their rrcovery will be replaced with the recovery included in that roms kernel

But heres the basic steps

1) get Ubuntu or other linux

2) set up a building environment

3) sync the cm10.2 source

4) download the twrp source

5) replace /bootable/recovery of cm10.2 with the downloaded twrp source

6) add a few lines to the board config of the infuse

7) compile

make bootimage

-makes boot.img only or

mka bacon

-makes full rom

Again...anytime a new kernel is flashed twrp will be replaced, this is the reason I stopped working on twrp, it was to time consuming to make a new twrp everytime a new kernal was released.

When I first started there was a way to extract the a users current kernel and "inject" twrp into it...this allowed twrp to be installed on any rom with any kernel version --- however, when we switched over to MTD format this method no longer worked and I was never able to figure out a work around.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rainbowkisses:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dugan1017:
If you want/need wifi calling, Darkside Evolution with one of TDJ's kernels and eugene's CUP sleeper app is light years better than stock in terms of smoothness, battery life, and the ability to customize.

I found stock to be super laggy and slow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rainbowkisses:
I just started using Darkside Evolution with Darkside Venom 3 #5 kernel, I like it but mms over wifi isn't working.

I really need wifi to be working, The new location I moved to has sucky service and without using wifi I'm runnning one, two or no bars at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
Try Samsung's fix. Open Gmail app with the acct linked to your phone. Send an email with a pic attached to yourself via Wi-Fi. You should get it right away. Now try and send an mms to yourself. If you don't get it, turn Wi-Fi off, then data off, and Wi-Fi back on and try again. This has worked for me several times.

I'm far from a noob, Thank you very much.

I knew aopk and cm9 roms don't support wifi calling, I'm sure even a noob would know that. you pretty much told me something I already knew that's why I kindly asked about the wifi calling app you were talking about. One question makes me a noob, funny. I'm sure you asked more questions, wouldn't that make you a noob too? Ha, I don't need why some people have to be so rude, keep your comment to yourself. Sorry for having a life!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sombionix:
It really depends on what you're wanting out of your device. If you're an average user who really has no intentions on modifying your phone and only wants stability, then stock is always a good choice. Even with stock, you still have options. You can root stock, remove the bloatware, and if you choose, flash a modified kernel on top for some additional performance and battery life. There are some really solid custom roms out there, but there are also a lot of buggy roms that will cause you more issues than you're probably prepared to deal with. If you're new to the android modification world, I suggest browsing some of these threads and doing some research to get a feel for everything. Start with the basics and work up. Learn to root, learn to flash, backup/restore (very important!). Luckily there is a lot of support in these forums so an answer will always be there.

EDIT: I read one of your posts wrong. Apparently you know the basics. Either way, the rest still applies. Cheers and good luck!
