[Nexus 7 Android Development] bftb0:
As it turns out, I built a "slightly rooted" JOP40D stock flash kit yesterday (mods to build.prop in boot.img, and su/SuperSU in system.img). I'm posting this reply from that.

I started with the Google JOP40D (grouper) distro to do that. I thought I was going to need to unpack the boot.img from the OP's .zip to do comparisons of the kernels (to answer your question) ... but it turns out that his boot.img has the same MD5 sig as the boot.img from Google's JOP40D... and the OP's updater-script merely flashes boot.img to the /boot partition.

That means one of two things: either the two successive Google releases (for grouper) had identical boot images (which implies identical kernels), or there is some mistake by the OP. (I don't have the 40C distro to check ... only picked up my N7 a few days ago.)

It should work in your specific case though, as you are on JOP40D.

In any event, flashing boot.img is way way more than just a kernel replacement. I haven't looked at it for a while, but I would suppose that Koush's kernel flasher is a much more appropriate technique for switching ONLY the kernel out from underneath an arbitrary ROM.

cheers
[Nexus 7 Android Development] annoyingduck:
That's great info there. I'm searching for the simplicity of just flashing a kernel instead of pushing the entire boot image. Thanks for a step in clarifying this question ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bftb0:
I had a peek at the Google OTA patch set for 40C -> 40D (see here), and indeed it appears that there are no changes to the boot partition (and thus the kernel) between the two.

The full grouper 40D distro is available here if you want to dig the kernel out of boot.img (via split_bootimg.pl).

Repacking boot.img with a different kernel can be accomplished on Windows so long as the ramdisk is left unmolested and you can find a windows version of mkbootimg; but if you want to mod the ramdisk (e.g default.prop or init.rc) while you are at it, Linux is needed. At a minimum that gives you something that can be used for fastboot flashing of the boot partition.

Do a search for "koush anykernel" from the top of XDA. Basic idea is that it does boot image unpack/kernel replacement/re-packing on the device in recovery during flashing so that the .zip being flashed only needs to contain the kernel image file (plus scripts/executables supporting this process). The existing ramdisk is left unmolested.

It's been around for a couple years now... I'm not sure if there are dependencies on the recovery busybox which might vary depending on the particular recovery being used, or if the updater-script would need reworking (e.g. I found some notes on the TeamWin site indicating that their newer TWRP recoveries had changed to "api 3").

So, YMMV ... and take backups before you dive in.

cheers
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cripwalk:
I extracted the stock boot.img from the google factory image - 4.2.1 JOP40D which you can find attached. Works perfectly on my Nexus 7 32GB Wifi.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
Is this for tilapia only, or will it work with grouper as well ?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bftb0:
It seems to contain the identical boot.img file as the zip in the OP (as determined by MD5 sig). That is consistent with the claim that the (grouper) stock boot partitions are identical in the 40C and 40D releases.

To your question, the installer script in both of these zips has a *grouper* assert at it's beginning. So it will only install using a grouper custom recovery. I haven't checked, but I am quite doubtful that the grouper and tilapia boot images are the same. (BTW, this is the grouper dev forum, not tilapia.)

cheers

thank you for this!

Does anyone have a flashable zip with the stock kernel for Nexus 7 WiFi Version (Grouper) 4.2.2 (JDQ39) for me? :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rusty.gh:
JDQ39?

If you get time can you make a flash zip for the new 4.2.2 JDQ39?

I change the settings for the data to on, in roaming area, and the settings will not stay the way i changed it. I have frozen out the sprint device manager, and a few more management apps. why will not my changes stay? I even tried the Note 2 Toolbox to change the settings and that does not work either. I figure by now I really could use some help with this.

if you remove ConnectionManager.apk from the system apps. along with the CSC folder in the system folder. you should be able to see the menu normally and roam normally. gets rid of the annoying connection optimizer and roaming guard. backup before attemping just in case ;)

but this is what works for me! no issues!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mpoehling:
Gave this a try..

Thank You That seemed to work, But there were two files in the System and I took them both out.

If I made a mistake I did back-up and I did reboot and so far it has not come up . I wanted to say again Thank You

I also have a ABD Lock on from Boot, yet it is always on since I had to add a lock. Didn't seem to work, every time I

rebooted it would not keep certain settings. You have any ideas for fee ABD Locks that work better?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mpoehling:
Did not work, rebooting to get in to TRW wipes the settings out, this is starting to really freaking me out! I have read and tried things and nothing is working.

Please someone has to have an answer why I can not make some changes and keep the ones I want. SOMEONE HELP!!!

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sifat3d:
My phone is the htc intruder/aria.

it has a serious problem.

in any call the guy on the other end hears a static noise, like a helicopter noise and it comes and goes.

this does NOT happen if i use a headphone with a mic(a cheap nokia one) when making the call.

tried Wifi,gprs,bluetooth off and on.

2g network.

tried stock 2.2 (nandroid) and cm10 by Mr.winsuk.

I live in a place with no htc care or anything.no warrenty etc.

audio recording is kinda faint,i have to speak loudly but the in call noise is NOT present but a faint windy noise is there.

I know this isnt a repair forum and i have searched a lot.

what could be the problem? and possibly how to fix it?

sorry for bad grammer,english isnt my 1st language and i cant type well on touch.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sifat3d:
Now my mic has gone completely mute.

Using another phone atm.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butters149:
Hello,

I am about to purchase a Note 2, but deciding to get the international and go with HSPA or 3G or go with the AT&T version with LTE. I currenly have a HTC One X international with AT&T media data plan. While Im at work I see full bars but the data signal really sucks, it would connect to such apps as imo but not facebook, web browsing is also slow. I thought that if I had full bars then I wold get fast data speeds.

My question is, will have 4G LTE improve the data speeds at work?

[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Hello all,

I am suffering from an weird issue, that I had never aware of...

After found some issues with "Memory card Unexpectedly removed" and "Screenshot couldn't be store in SD card"

I tried to format SD card, but what I found --->I can't Format SD card... :confused:

I tried :::::

--> Scanned with Antivirus (Kaspersky) and removed 1 Trojan from 3rd Party apk file..

--> Unmount the Card and Format it via Phone...

--> Formatted via 4EXT recovery

--> attached with PC and Formatted with FAT32..

--------------------------------------------------------------------

CAN'T SUCCEED.... :(

--------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT :: I can't write any data as well

--------------------------------------------------------------------

And by chance, if Format succeeds then after when I insert the SD card again to device or attaching with PC, ALL THE DATA COMES BACK again without any Data Loss

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Help Me.....My device details are listed in My Signature...
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Are you sure the sd card is sitting in it's housing properly ?

Does it still click in and out?

Could there be some dust or fluff preventing it from making good contact with the phone?

Is there any way you could get a card reader,and try it directly into the PC

What about trying a different card?

:)
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Not an issue with Housing and Phone, I think It's an Issue with Micro SD itself...

I tried it with connecting with PC via Card Reader, but If i Format the card and again read it via Phone, All the Data comes back without any Data loss..... :confused:

It's the Problem with SD card only...I know that diff SD card solve this, but as this is my 32gigs, i have to solve it cause I can't afford any other 32 gig SD card... :(

EDIT:: Any way to Forcefully Format SD card.... ??
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I know this is a silly question,but some sd cards have a lock.

Is yours locked?

:)
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
No..It's not Locked....

EDIT:: My Memory card have ONLY Read Permission, NOT Write Permission
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Here's how I formatted my 64gig. SD card. Pull battery, put battery back in, press power and volume down at same time, when in bootloader choose recovery, press power to go to it. Once in 4ext. Recovery choose format SD card. It will ask are you sure. Hit yes. Let card format. This will work. It worked for me. Remember to back up data if any on SD card because formatting will erase it. I did mine this way because the device wasn't recognising my card in the phone. It worked perfectly. Hope this helps! Best wishes. It worked for me. Hopefully this will also work for you!

[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Already mentioned that I tried by Formating from 4Ext, but after completion the data will remain as it is.....

The Problem is Data is remaining As It is.....No Write...No Format...Only Read..
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
use SD formatter and format the SD card...(google the tool)
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Error while formatting via SDFormatter ::

The Memory Card is write-protected.Please release the write protected switch

P.S.:: I had not put any lock and as I have multi-card reader so no any locking system in Card Reader...:(
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Sounds like the SD card is locked some how. Maybe you can return it to the seller for another one? He should return it without issue after you explain to seller what's happening. You have tried just about everything. Perhaps return is an option now? Seller should give you another card free of charge. Wonder why it's locked in the first place?? If I we're you, I'd contact your seller right away. I don't see why he wouldn't replace it. Best of luck to you. Hopefully you can resolve this issue.. best wishes!

Edit.. search on google unlocking micro SD card, or unlocking write protected SD card. It said there is a small sliding lock on the adapter, look carefully on the side. It said to place micro SD into adapter and slide tiny lock in opposite direction. Towards contacts is unlocked towards top is lock. You will see the lock switch if you look carefully on the adapters side. It's a tiny switch. This is suppose to unlock the write protection. Check it out on Google! Hope this helps you out! Best wishes!

Please press thanks if I helped in any way.
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
I know there is a small unlock key provided on card Reader for Locking/Unlocking the Card Write Protection, But I'm not using Single Card Reader, I'm using Multi-card reader (which is capable of reading 4-6 different types of card at the same time) and in this Card Reader there is no any Lock/Unlock switch...

I also tried Format from RECOVERY...Also tried by connecting via data cable and tried to format it from Windows...All the possible tries i had done so far...

As Ganeshp suggested I tried SDFormatter,

But didn't work----> It says can't Format..Write Protection..
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saiko*:
My stock Touchpad has a weird color problem. Anytime there is some shading/gradient type effect, red/green/blue hues appear. Solid colors seem fine but when I try to watch something like a movie...every person looks like Obama's HOPE poster. Even the normal grey backgrounds of the UI/Cards look like they are running in some 8bit mode or something.

HP live chat previously ASSURED me it is not a hardware problem but rather a software problem. I have done all the updates/factory reset/etc. Nothing has improved. Has anyone seen this type of problem? Is there a 8bit color switch somewhere? Thanks for reading/any help!

I attached a tiny low res pic of the problem. The problem is pretty obvious :(
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmarble:
Does it work correctly in WebOS? That would tell us if it is a cm problem or a hardware problem. Boot over to WebOS and try watching a movie. I haven't heard of this being a cm problem.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saiko*:
It doesn't even have CM on it. I'm actually wondering if I flash android on it...it'll get fixed. Will give it a try when I have more time but might just try to call warranty on it. My warranty has passed 1 year but hopefully my credit card company should cover it. I'm thinking I should try that first before wasting time on flashing.

Such a weird problem that has stopped me from using/enjoying my TP :(
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
Its hard to even tell what the problem is in your picture. But is your screen discolored in that one spot or is the whole screen discolored? I've never heard of a software issue causing that. And if it was a software issue, running the webOS doctor should have fixed it. So if its still under warranty, i'd go that route first.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saiko*:
The issue is the entire screen. The picture is supposed to be mainly dark grey/grey/white. The blue/green tints pretty much appear wherever there is slight color gradients. Its quite obvious on non-solid colored UI and skin. It looks like basically watching a person while on acid.

Anyone know if its possible to have a faulty GPU or something on it and still boot up? The TP does feel sluggish in other aspects as well...open up just a few cards and it becomes pretty damn sluggish. Doesn't even have to be a web browser card...something simple like calculator can sometimes cause problems...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
If its your whole screen, it could be that your screen is messed up. If you have the warranty still, I'd see if you can get it replaced.

I disabled s memo via android settings (there are two s memo apps actually in android applications-i disabled them both), but after some days s memo is still in my ram services in cached applications.

Is this normal? If so any way to get notifications on the icons?

That's normal on a nexus because app icon notifications are added by manufacturers. I've been doing this for the longest time since n1 days. Use a launcher and get their app notifies. Currently I have nova prime with tesla unread notifier.

[HTC One V] served24:
Hello, i've been having this problem with every single Jellybean ROM that i've tried lately and its beginning to bug me. I can't send text messages more than 160 characters (the amount alloted for 1 a single text message) if it goes over, say 165 characters then the message doesn't get sent and 3 minutes later i get a "message not sent error report." All the while the message just keeps saying "sending." What's the problem? I've been using jmz's primoc+ kernel and have experimented with Pacman and Evervolv and they both yield the same problem. I used to be able to send as long of a text as i desired in previous JB roms but now i don't know. This seems to be a problem only to me as other people's phones are working properly. Any of you guys have any suggestions or ideas as to why my SMS messages are not sending?
