Can we please have the ODin .exe version of this kernel/recovery.

there is no reason to go back to the old EL29 then

THANK YOU!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
I don't know how. Teach me. :silly: I'll go run a search and see if I can figure it out real quick.

Edit: Haven't found any good documentation to read on how to do this. I'll look around a bit later.

Most likely no good reading on the subject intentionally to try and mitigate the risks of other people trying it and borking something to no end. But if someone is willing to teach, I'm willing to learn.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Thank you so much! I got a new SGS2 from sprint and figured I will try whole bunch of ROMs back to back and try stuff before sendig my old one back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Yay! Agat has the S2 to play with again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
after a day of fun in different ROMs today from TW to CM10 to MIUI back to TW lol

my tumbs are tired of scrolling up and down then recovery lol

the best option I found in CWM recovery was the one that you hold the up or down button and the pointer just scrolls up or down instead of going one line at the time by each press of the button.

Just push and hold down and it scrolls down. Was wondering if that could be ported over to AGAT's recovery.

Again it would be very nice to have the recovery files uploaded in all the 3 formats of

.tar.md5

.exe for recovery flash

.exe for Odin flash
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
I've seen the hold to scroll feature request before. Someone was going to look into that, but I don't remember who, and haven't seen anything since. As far as distribution formats go, it's easy enough to make a tar.md5, it's like a 5 lines change on the build script, but I'd consider it a low priority. People should be checking their md5 sums against the ones provided on the download site anyway. It's just good practice. As for on-clicks... there are only a few people on here that have the knowledge to make odin one-clicks that I can think of... all of them are sxtp team, and I don't think it's as easy of a process. (someone can correct me on that if I'm wrong) So, you'd probably need to ask one of them politely to do that for you. ...But what I don't get about the request is that you specified .exe for recovery flash AND .exe for Odin flash... how are these different? Pretty sure you just want one for kernel/recovery install. I don't know what you'd need a second for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
the Md5 is good to have beacuase when you transfer it from computer to SD or anything happens you dont have to recheck the md5. I know how but it is one step less.

as for the odin .exe the only one arround odin .exe is the EL29 or the old ICS no new JB kernel is in odin format it would be nice to have at least one odin .exe of safe stable recovery. I will ask Garwyn perhaps.

http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=246&p=2791#post2791

ofcourse all the files will get you the same result but for different situations it would be nice to have them handy. that is all.

Thank you so much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Do you think you can fix the hold to scroll?

What about you AGAT, do you accept the challenge? once the feature ported to your recovery you can use it for other phones recovery as well perhaps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
Me? I could try... I've never built a recovery before... should be interesting for me... even if I don't end up producing anything out of it. :silly:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Looking forward to it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
I was right. It is interesting... I've made the changes that I want to make to ui.c to try and fix scrolling by holding a volume buttons, but trying to figure out how to build the environment I need to build the recovery is kinda weird and unclear... I'm pretty lost right now. It's not as straight forward as setting up an environment to build a kernel was. I go do MoAr searching/reading now while I start following this guide to get close to where I believe I want to be http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2060017 (?) :eek: then maybe on to this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1866545

After talking to agat, he might be able to help point me in the right direction after finding some files :fingers-crossed:

Extweaks settings ain't sticking, is this a known issue? [For the Kernel In General, Not your modded version Helix]
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackcanopy:
I was having trouble getting ExTweaks to stick too. I uninstalled it and tried using rom toolbox, but it does the same. Some settings sick, while others will not.

I noticed on the conservative governor if you change the sampling rate min to say 40000 it goes right back to 100000. So the max and min stay at 100000.

Profiles aren't sticking for me on neither extweaks or rom toolbox.

I'm still using Agat's 1.3 kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
If the settings aren't sticking check that you don't have some other .init.d scripts running or other tweak applicaions that are running soon after boot.

I had RomToolbox and Pimp MyRom installed. Along with Kobridge's tweaks.

I deleted everything in the init.d folder. went into the the tweak apps and made sure they were not 'set at boot/startup'. I actually froze them via Titanium at first, then unfroze and changed settings later.

Made sure I had the /data/.agat folder too.

Then used ExTweaks and it worked.

Just something to look at.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kvevand63:
Great job on update! Question.. is it possible on perhaps next update that tsp_threshhold value (touchscreen sensitivity) can be changed by user? Apparently possible with Extweaks, however when I check tsp_threshhold it is still at default value of 50, Agats is set at 0. I do have /.agats folder in /data, all 4 files show in it, no conflicting scripts in init.d, nothing set to go on boot. All other Extweaks values do update, but not tsp_threshhold.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackcanopy:
I'm aware of the scripts over powering extweaks, that being said... I have a script that changes sampling rate min to 40000 for conservative. However, it doesn't change. If you try changing it with rom toolbox it doesn't change either. instead it stays at 100000 fit both max and min by default. If you go into sys/devices/system/CPU/cpufreq/conservative folder and open the sampling_rate_min file with text editor and change the value to 40000, save and exit.. It changes right back to 100000 instantly.

I did not make the directory .Agat when trying to set profiles with extweaks but was really trying to see If it IT would make the change on the above issue. When Trying to set profiles with rom toolbox, after placing a check on the profiles you want active... Exciting the app and reopening it the ones that were checked became unchecked and the ones unchecked became checked... That could be an app issue perhaps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Warboy:
Yea I heard it was a issue with ExTweaks 0.32 tho, Does anyone have a backup of Extweaks 0.31 so I can test this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
I remember seeing some tweaks that really shouldn't be set in the kernel being set somewhere... don't remember where I saw it, or even if its related, but next time I do a build... after I get recoveries building and play with that... I'll rip those settings out. Won't be tonight... I'm heading up to party at a cabin in sundance for the night.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JCred:
It's running good. Did you revert to 0.3.4 recovery or did something go awry during my flash?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
I just did a git on his repos and modified from there. So whatever was there is what I built. Don't know if he checked in anything after I forked it or not. I'll check and see whats current tomorrow... Heading up the canyon to sundance soon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JCred:
Have fun and don't sweat it- 0.3.5 isn't an upgrade it just removes the pre-reboot fear-mongering. Can anyone else confirm/dispel HelixMod is using tRec 0.3.4? Just trying to make sure I didn't break something.

K, so just checked and it is 0.3.4. I got the ramdisk I'm using from garwynn's repo, so it's the same recovery garwynn is running in his latest 0.5.0.... meaning all of the recovery fixes that were discussed over in his thread should be included.

SO i put Agat 1.3.0 GB27 on my mom's Virgin GB28, everything works great!

Just wanted to share if anyone else was curious about doing so.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
Found what I was looking at before in the kernel source when I said there was stuff being set that might have to do with your problem. I was wrong. What I was looking at was unrelated.

However, I'm doing some reading and it MIGHT be a restriction of having CONFIG_NO_HZ kernel feature enabled. It looks like with this enabled it fixes sampling_rate_min at 10ms. Or it might be that in the same defconfig CONFIG_HZ=200.

My phone has been randomly rebooting about once a day (that I notice) while doing nothing but occupying my pocket... and I have no idea why. It did not play well with Comadose 1.5 and I'm wondering if there might be residuals that tweak removal scripts miss? I can still find plenty of exit_only, Kobridge, crossbreeder etc... references in my file system. Is the absence of an init.d folder all.that's required to render them useless?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Helix4u I have been on your moded version of Agat, noticed it is actually 0.3.4 not the newer 0.3.5 AGAT recovery. I believe he just cleaned up a bit in the newer version. When you get a chance do you mind updating your moded version (removed adaptive governor).

Also any progress on hold to scroll?

Despite his wife's old S2, Agat is mesmerized by the new S4 lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
No. That's not enough for full removal. Usually whoever made your tweaks will have something for you to flash back to stock with.

---------- Post added at 11:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

I've seen mention of not only 0.3.5, but 0.3.6 out there somewhere as well... but in the version thats in his git repositories it shows tREC_v0.3.4. I don't know what the difference is but if its changes are not in his repositories then we can rip an already built version out of the ramdisk of an updated kernel. Only thing is, I can't modify an already built recovery, so the best way to do this is find the source for 0.3.5(6?).

Hold to scroll is going to take some changes to ui.c. I'm recovering from a failed disk on my main machine right now (there are 5 hard disks on this guy). I have a backup of the VM, but it pre-dates setting up an environment for recovery builds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
3.6 is specifi to GS4.

I did edit mount points in it.

Unfortunatelly I didn't push changes of 3.5 to git. :(

I'll have to try to do reverse changes to 3.6 and try to push it to git.

All I did in 3.5 was removing all NO's but one in zip install etc...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
Agat to the rescue! :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Thanks AGAT and Helix.

I guess AGAt can just remove the culprit governor and release a new version with 3.5

AGAT did you look into the hold to scroll?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Nope.

Been pretty busy with figuring out S4.

It way different from everything I had before.

Very time consuming at this point since I have to learn a lot of stuff all over again.

For instance non of the known governors are working with new kernel source.

I spend better part of sunday editing/overwriting pegasusq governor and finally got it compiling with the source but

now I have an error on kernel final build stage.

As I said. A lot to read and alot to try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Helix.. what do u say? Up for it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
Here's the mod with 0.3.5 recovery.

http://d-h.st/dTn in tar.md5 format

http://d-h.st/A65 in zip format

Lol, I messed around with the recovery .png image files. :silly: They'll be back to normal next time I build.

Attempting the scrolling request will have to wait until I have 0.3.5 source to work with... I also still need to rebuild the build environment needed for recoveries that I lost this morning.

UPDATE: Problem fixed. Ended up being human error... as always. lol .

First off, thank you Helix for the update on 1.3. I just flashed the .tar via m/o then flashed a zip. I noticed that my device did not go thru the usual "android upgrading" process upon reboot. I did wipe cache/dalvik. Goes straight from recovery to boot animation then lock screen, tried it twice to confirm. Btw.. I like what you did with the recovery .png image, it is sort of refreshing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
Thanks :) I haven't thoroughly tested this recovery yet. If others can confirm that wiping isn't working then I can try and look into it. I'm going to try and not obsess about it tonight. I need to be awake in the morning for work :silly:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Thanks Helix..

I will play around with it tomorrow, but will flash it now to check the basics.

again THANK YOU for the tar.md5

I am back to the old version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Pushed recovery v0.3.5 and v0.3.6 to git.

Now all edits are available for further development.

Feel free to pull it and use it.

Just make sure when pulling for GS2 pulll v0.3.5 commit.

Last commit wont work with this phone. The changes in last commit are specific to GS4 mount points.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Helix4u,

I tried you're modded kernel. I was able to wipe caches. But upon reboot I still got the "android upgrading" process upon reboot.

Also ExTweaks app didn't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
ExTweaks is very picky and works only with couple of versions of busybox.

To make it work I'm using busybox from my old ramdisks.

Just a heads up.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
So, you seem to indicate that you are able to get the upgrading screen that the other dude couldn't... I guess I should try this stuff. lol. My test cases may be different than both of yours.

The only real differences at this point between agat's and mine should be the disabled adaptive governor and the recovery png images. What I ended up doing to get 0.3.5 in there is I unpacked the ramdisk from the 1.3.0 zImage and copied them into my build's ramdisk directory and fired off a build.

I haven't (ever) played with ExTweaks, but I guess I should do that too. :laugh:

Anyway, I'm moving this girl in to my place tonight, so I don't know how much I'll be online.

What is the lowest setting I can undervolt to?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Every device is different. There is no general rule for it.

Some can undervolt -100 MV and for me -50 was max.

If you undervolt don't make it as boot settings till you absolutely sure the voltage is OK.

With low woltage phone might crash and if you have those setting on boot you might have problems booting again.

So first run it for few hours or may be days and if you sure it works you can set that voltage on boot.

What app should we use to undervolt?

Hey Agat has there been any changes to the SmartassV2 governor? Reason for this question is because is not playing well on my GB27 rom. Pegasuqs and noop scheduler playing friendly though... I'm not undervolting whatsoever and SmartassV2 giving me some hiccups...

An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
If there were any changes that would be not the governor.

Don't forget it's new OS now.

E.G none of the governors work with GS4 at all.

All need some editing and adjusting to make them work.

It really depends on what you're wanting to flash... if what you're wanting to flash wipes data, then yeah, I'd get an SD card to flash from, but for other stuff you should be fine flashing from internal storage. The good news is that even class10 32GB sdcards are only around $20.

Well, eventually I want to flash roms. See its the wife's phone & she could really care less. But I figured I'd just get an 8 gig card.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] helix4u:
So, if you don't have an external sdcard, you can still flash some things from the internal sdcard.

I think you might just not be looking in the right place...

-Install zip from sdcard > then "choose zip from internal sdcard" its like the 4rth option...

If you had an external in there, you'd want to usually install zips from it, but for just mods and minor things you can use the internal usually.
