[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
Amazingly I can't even find any of those adapter tips on UK eBay, and if I set to search other countries they trying to charge on average £20 delivery so the cheapest I can find one for is £27.

So can someone point me in the right direction to get one at a reasonable price.
[Galaxy S III General] boundy:
Mobile fun had them on there website for £10 a pop
[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
Been checking them for weeks and asked them to send email notification when in stock but every day I've been checking and says out of stock and last week started saying they only available for pre-order.

HML adadapter 5pin to 11 pin

http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Samsung...to-11-Pin-Converter-Adapter-TIP-/400316561767

US$9.99 and $1.59 shipping worldwide. Mine works well with one of the cheap ebay $8 5pin HML units.(just search for 'Samsung HML')
[Galaxy S III General] ebod:
Guys! am I missing something here??? I'm correct to assume my S3 is 11-pin right??

Lets go back to my ebay link : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130752544096?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

This item is £7.59GBP inclusive of shipping and clearly states S3 &

11 pin

in the body of the text.

So is this item good to go ? :)
[Galaxy S III General] Arthur Hucksake:
Would the Galaxy Note one work?
[Galaxy S III General] Erahgon:
Am I right in thinking that the 11 pin SGS3 MHL cable is compatible with the S2 and the Note (i.e. backwards compatible)?

Don't confuse this with the S2 and Note MHL connector working with the S3 - I know it doesn't.

Can someone actually check with an S3 MHL connector and an S2 or a Note and confirm please?

I only get that after wiping dalvik/fixing permissions in cwm.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
it depends on your kernel.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noraizrox:
Will it work for the G version?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spiralzz:
Oops... I'm sorry, I missed that part. No, you need to find a kernel for the G version. Since I don't own that version, I'm not so knowledgeable about kernels for that device. Try searching xda and google, and I'm sure you'll find plenty of kernels.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noraizrox:

first off, i do hope it has not been covered anywhere else, my searches did not find any answer.

I am currently running PA JB 1.991

all is fine and dandy, but i can't seem to make my note put pictures it takes to the

in the past i thought there was a setting for this, but i cannot find it anymore in this version.

any help will be greatly appreciated !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
cant help with original Q, but good point, why name sdcard confusingly sdcard. Its like inviting us to hack hardware and place bigger sdcard in. However, that is not possible, because I dont think it even litterally is an SD card, lol. Probably a workaround in android. Who knows.

Changelog:

Full release of SoupKit w/SoupKit Utility v1.0

8-27-12

Initial release of the SoupKit_a Installer
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Thank you VERY much. What perfect timing, yesterday I set my PC up to dual boot Ubuntu. I got everything setup and followed the directions in Sblood86's instruction thread to Enable adb under Ubuntu but I messed something up because adb devices didn't find my KF. Just found your thread, installed the Soupkit and success first try. Now I don't have to figure out what I did wrong. :) Saved me a lot of time so thanks again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
UPDATE: It appears your "Idiot-proof" comment may have underestimated some of us. I was playing with adb today and ran into a problem. Some adb commands, devices and push for example, work perfectly. However I could not use adb to change boot modes.

When I enter

adb shell ome idme bootmode 5001

I get an error

Invalid permissions

So I tried putting sudo in front of it and I get

sudo: adb: command not found

I am confident this is easy to fix but I am just learning adb and Ubuntu. I have been reading all of the beginner guides I can find but I haven't found a solution yet so any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Edit----

NEVERMIND - SOLVED- I obviously combined the fastboot and adb commands together. Leave the ome part out and it works perfectly. I said you underestimated us idiots.

Thanks again for the great kit.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Nope, not at all. ;)

Oh, No...Thank You

In all seriousness, I'm glad everything worked out for you. If you ever need anything or have anymore "questions", please, don't be afraid to ask.

Just a little configuring in the control center if your using a touch pad mouse..

And keyboard shortcut for terminal can be added as well...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] cowsquad:
Great script. Thank you
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Fallon9111:
Idiot proof you say??
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
1) The "Idiot-proof" part of the title is out of humor and fun, get over it.

2) Pay attention. The Soupkit is for people who otherwise have no other working options with Windows (and there are plenty), not people who ALREADY know Linux, although it does make the process a lot easier. I thought I made that perfectly clear.

3) Seriously? No. KF only.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] beekah:
Well the xda-developers portal post that links here definitely makes it sound as if this works with other android devices. I was about to install this. Sorry to bug ya, but would you care to explain why this is KF only. I apologize, but am curious and this would make some things much easier for any droid noobs. like me
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
It is just a simple shell script that installs and configures the adb driver and sets udev rules for the Kindle Fire. You can edit the script and add that particular information for your particular device pretty easily, if you know what to look for.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jason_cheng:
Hey soupmagnet install_it.sh contains Debian- and APT-specific commands, packages and paths so it will not work on non-apt distros (apt-get, dpkg, ia32-libs).

The script also makes use of addgroup, which may not be available on other systems. /etc/init.d is also distro-specific, as for e.g. Arch has rc.d.

Otherwise, it's all good. New users (that is, for this use case) should be directed to get Ubuntu or Mint anyway. Just thought this info should be up at a glance in case someone's interested in the Whys.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tmlhodge:
Yeah this guy must think debian is the only linux out there. How bout some arch support?

Edit: Just checked and nowhere in the OP does the word DEBIAN come up. Even though it is the only type of linux this will work on.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Just for that...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:

The full release is finally here...OP Updated.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
Thanks for the update!! I am hoping this will bring my Kindle back to life as I have exhausted all other methods.

I have a LiveUSB running Ubuntu.

I can connect to the internet.

Program only states "Device Offline"

Kindle is stuck at Kindle fire logo.

Any other suggestions? Or am i doing something wrong?

Thanks!!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
The stock bootloader is screwed, thanks to Amazon. Go ahead and select an option. It will tell you what to do when you have the stock bootloader installed. I would suggest installing custom recovery and then FireFireFire. The rest should be simple after that.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
I have tried every option... no success.

My device is "offline" or hangs at "waiting for device"

I am new to linux. Is there any other special things in need to setup besides access to the internet?

Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Works perfectly bud congrats on the release!! Thank you for hard work!

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------

Are you using 32 bit Ubuntu 12.04?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
The stock bootloader has been handicapped quite a bit. One of the things that happens is it will always show as "offline" which is why a lot of people have problems with it. Another thing that happens is you can only send one fastboot command at a time before having to perform a hard shutdown. I have had it to where I had to perform a hard shutdown while it's "<waiting for device>". If that doesn't work, it's likely something went wrong somwhere else.

Try the hard shutdown and if that doesn't work, open a new terminal window and enter:

lsusb

...and post the output here.

It is actually 11.04. When I created the LiveUSB It stated it was 32bit...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Are you using USB 2.0 or 3.0?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
I had some issues with 11.04 I had to really cheat to get it to install correctly. I suggest you download 12.04 32 bit ubuntu or linux mint mate 13 32 bit these are the very best canidates for a new linux user.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
I did an lsusb -v and it states 2.0
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
What I'm asking is what the device is plugged into because it isn't even being detected by Linux.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
It is plugged into my USB port on my latop.using a Motorola micro USB. I have also tried using my Samsung USB cable. The laptop is an HP. I guess I am unclear what you are asking me to specify?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Switch ports and do

lsusb

again. Then switch cords and do it again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Do you know the USB specifications for your laptop? USB 3.0 won't work, you need 2.0 (or lower) for the Kindle Fire. If you don't have a 2.0 port, you can try plugging in a 2.0 hub and plugging the KF into that.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Removed: duplicate post
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
You should also reboot the device and check lsusb again, and try different ports and cables if you have to.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
Well... I ran the command on all 4 USB ports on my laptop. No success. I even shutdown the Kindle and opened an new terminal each time. I tried this using my Motorola cable and my Samsung cable.

Funny thing is when I plug my Kindle into each port with the power off it powers up in each port.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Mosy any cable will do that but not every usb port or cable will allow good adb and fastboot. What state is your device in?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
That's normal. When the KF detects a power source, it boots up to load the ramdisk for charging.

You need to make sure your laptop doesn't have all USB 3.0 ports. If it does, you need to use a 2.0 hub or a different computer. If you do have 2.0 ports, it's likely a problem with your Linux installation or your BIOS settings. It's rare that Linux wouldn't detect something connected to a USB 2.0 port.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
Device is stuck at kindle fire screen

---------- Post added at 07:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

My laptop has 2.0 USB ports
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Okay, I would suggest making another LiveUSB with Ubuntu 12.x if possible and see if there's any change. Also check your BIOS settings to make sure USB hasn't been disabled.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
If anyone needs it here`s the link for ubuntu 12.04 http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/. Use the desktop version intel x86 is 32 bit. I have yet to test out 12.10 will later though.

Edit: It does work on 12.10 but the installation acts differently I recommend a reboot after any install of soupkit and if any Linux distro you use asks if you want to install it or try it "always try" unless you want it installed on your computer. Try other distros other than the ones recommended at your own risk. I did test all the dangerous stuff on 12.10 at my own risk and it works fine "for me". Download the release of 12.10 here http://www.ubuntu.com/ not the nightly. I still would recommend using 12.04.

Side note: There happens to be a shortcut on 12.10 to of all places but Amazon? :p
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
I ran 12.10 with the same results. It does not see my device. Gonna give 12.4 a shot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Start a new terminal, enter the following command and tell me if there is anything there or if it's just blank.

#fastboot protocol for blaze / otter +Amazon Kindle Fire)

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0660", OWNER="root", GROUP="androiddev", SYMLINK+="android%n"
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
It was suggested to me that if the udev rules didn't get set properly, it might prevent Linux from detecting your device (although that has not been my experience). But as you can see, your udev rules have been set.

From my experience, the only things that would keep Linux from detecting your device in fastboot are....

Using a VM instead of LiveUSB (not the case)

Using USB 3.0 ports instead of 2.0 (not the case)

32 bit libraries not installed correctly (not the case)

Bad cable or USB port (likely not the case)

BIOS isn't configured properly (unclear)

The only thing left is the bootloader. It is possible there is something wrong with the bootloader to the point that it will still power up but won't communicate with the USB. The only option you would have in this case is with the Firekit, and hope that by putting it in USBboot, Linux will detect the omap4 device. Unfortunately, it would probably require the shorting trick to work properly.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
I was able to push twrp recovery to it. I see the fire fire fire logo and it asks me to press power for recovery. After that if I power down it boots right to the kindle fire logo.

How in the world do I push the boot loader to it? And which boot loader should I push?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
If your bootloader is stock select the option to change bootmodes even if the device appears offline then select option for normal boot and follow the onscreen instruction and wait If nothing happens then you will need to pull the back cover and you firekit supplied with soupkit . Copy and paste the line from above

usb_fix_parts_and_ install_fff_twrp

(hit enter)when it says waiting for omap44xx short the test point against the small surrounding metal frame and plug the kindle in (that is powered off at this moment) at the same time keep it shorted till the script runs through 4 stages.

---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 PM ----------

You are confusing bootloader and recovery the bootloader has the menu to select recovery the recovery is twrp or cotr, select twrp for now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
This is where I am confused. I do this $sudo ./usbboot aboot.bin u-boot.bin; ./fastboot boot twrp-blaze-2.0.0RC0.img usb_fix_parts_and_ install_fff_twrp

I get...

waiting for OMAP44xx device...

[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Try it again, but hold the short until the whole thing is completed.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:
At the end of the cannot load statement it returns to the /Desktop/rekindle$
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
I don't know much about rekindle but as far as I know, it's the same as Firekit only everything has to be in the right place. Use the Firekit, there's less chance of user error. The commands are still the same.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hackercity:

I was able to get this back up and running. using the USB short method.

I appreciate the help. I am sorry I hijacked your thread!!

No worries.

After all, I did say...

I'm glad you got it worked out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Gromlakh:
Soupkit is quite awesome, got my Linux Mint setup working for adb/fastboot with my Kindle Fire quite well.

Two quickie suggestions for the install script would make it even better, though. Specifically, this part of "install_it.sh":

echo '# adb protocol for blaze / otter (Amazon Kindle Fire)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1949", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0006", MODE="0666", OWNER="root", GROUP="androiddev", SYMLINK+="android%n"

# adb protocol for CM10 (Amazon Kindle Fire)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1949", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0004", MODE="0666", OWNER="root", GROUP="androiddev", SYMLINK+="android%n"

# fastboot protocol for blaze / otter (Amazon Kindle Fire)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0100", MODE="0660", OWNER="root", GROUP="androiddev", SYMLINK+="android%n"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules;

As written, that will properly set up 51-android.rules for a Kindle Fire. The problem is that it will also overwrite the user's existing rules file, if one currently exists. So if a user already owns another Android phone with udev rules already set...this will delete them.

You can change that by adding "-a" to the last line I quoted. So, instead of:

sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Make it:

sudo tee -a /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

That will make it "append" to the end of the file rather than overwrite the whole file. Also...

if [ /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules ]
sudo cp /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules.bak

...before echoing the udev rules should backup the existing file if there is one. My syntax may be slightly off.
