System.IMG is a flashable image that contains all of the files within the system partition of your phone. If you can manage to mount the system partition, you could in theory capture the system.img
[Moto X General] malcolmputer:
Using debian, it wouldn't mount as a loop with either ext4 or "not specified". Unyaffs2 ran successfully, but didn't dump any files. It did complain about it not being an integer of 2048 bytes though.

My kernel doesn't have f2fs in debian, I can try compiling it into my gentoo kernel tomorrow if need be.
[Moto X General] glarepate:
man page needed! (o:[>

Thank you. I am trying to mount it but not having any luck. :crying:

Just to clarify: I have unzipped the Kit Kat 4.4.2 SBF package ghost_repw-user-4.4.2-KXA20.16-1.24-1.12-12-release-keys-cid6.xml.zip from the SBF developers site and am trying to mount the file 'system.img' that is contained within the zip file. The SBF passed the MD5 checksum test and 'unzip -tvv' tells me that everything inside the zip file is "OK".

But I can't get any leverage on it with the 'mount' command by using ext4 as a parameter, by letting mount try to figure things out on its own nor with 'unyaffs', which just chokes and segfaults. I'm certainly open to suggestions on how to proceed from here ...

As I mentioned, I have Debian Wheezy but haven't booted it up yet. I will try that next and see what luck I have and then report back. :fingers-crossed:

_____________________________________________________________________________

Well Synaptic has no notion that yaffs, yaffs2 or f2fs even exist. My kernel really only supports ext4. All other filesystems are virtual ones liks sysfs, rootfs, proc, tmpfs, etc.
[Moto X General] Cyphir:
What exactly are we trying to accomplish by decompiling the system.IMG? Just curious. Are we trying to develop a custom ROM?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rabid platypus:
Hello Everyone. Well, I just found out that my 16 month old son is tall enough to reach up and blindly fish for things on the edge of my kitchen counters. I heard him laughing and banging something against the linoleum floor, so I went to investigate. That something was my phone, which was just previously on the edge of the counter. I recovered my phone and replaced it with his old cricket phone that we gave him to play with. I inspected the phone, and there were no cracks, dents, or any other physical damage. The buttons, touchscreen, speaker, and everything else worked. My phone worked liked normal, so I didn't think anything else of it.

Two days later, something funny happened. I turned on my screen, and it just showed a screen full of multicolored pixels. I plugged my phone into the charger, and the screen returned to normal. This started happening more frequently, and I would just turn my screen off and on until it returned to normal. Two days after the first incident, the screen now permanently displays the full screen of multicolored pixels. Nothing I do will correct it. Every single other aspect of the phone works correctly, even the touchscreen.

So, I am here hoping you guys can help me figure out what is wrong. I can take the phone completely apart and fix or replace a part that is broken. What do you guys thing is wrong or broken?

Here is a picture of what my phone displays.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] igobytony:
it is a known issue, and especially not uncommon after drops. mine just started doing it intermittently. the thread below is one that I was actually just reading before popping over here and noticing this thread.

I'm debating between taking it in right now (and risking them giving me trouble because of rooting) or just waiting until the screen stays static and then taking it in.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
Mine did this today. Hasn't been dropped at all. It happened when I tried to turn screen on. When plugged into pc, nothing is detected. I have to bring it to a Sprint store.

I've lost two Evos to this problem. If you have insurance take it in...there are intermittent reports of Sprint replacing broken Evos with a new HTC One.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lreyes:
You'll never get in trouble for rooting. As long you have Sense on. You'll be good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
Turns out that the Sprint store closest to me doesn't do repairs anymore so I was going to have to go 40 miles to another one. I called Sprint and after some waiting, they are sending me a new phone via UPS. I just have to send the other one back to them.

Thanks for the link! When I press down on the bottom left of my screen my phone returns to normal. I switched from sprint to ting so I will replace the digitizer myself.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karsaliar:
I recently bought a Note 3 (very excited about the device), and once i got it, i started playing around with it. The capacitive buttons were working fine and were only lighting up whenever i touched the sides of the home button (as they should). After some time with playing around with the phone, i decided to install Nova Launcher just to check it out and see how i liked it (i was running the standard touchwiz before). The first thing i noticed with Nova Launcher was that once it was running, the capacitive buttons would light up every time i touched the screen. If i went to unlock the phone, they would light up. If i swiped to go to another home screen, they would light up. If i scrolled a webpage in the browser, they would light up. This really irked me, and so i decided to uninstall Nova Launcher (hoping this would make the buttons light up normally again). However, i have not found the solution to this issue. I don't want to completely disable the capacitive buttons so they don't light up even if i press them. I simply want to go back to the standard capacitive button routine where they light up only when i touch them, not whenever i touch the screen.

Can anyone please help me fix this issue? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Settings > Device > Display > Touch light key duration and just set your desired time
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karsaliar:
I have looked into that already, but my issue isn't the time limit. My time limit is at the standard 1.5 seconds (which it has always been at), the issue is that the capacitive buttons light up whenever my finger touches the touchscreen, and i want to go back to the buttons only lighting up whenever i actually touch them next the home button.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Yeah they will light up when you touch the screen, it's been like that for a while now. Mine does it to.

EDIT::

Actually mine doesn't do it all the time only sometimes, - disable it then clear cache and clear default launcher then try it again
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karsaliar:
When do the capacitive buttons light up for you? I did all of that and it doesnt seem like anything changed, and i even did a settings reset through the menu.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
I have the 6 second time set on mine, they light up when I use certain apps, or text msgs via hangouts - I use a kitkat launcher too
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NissanNick:
When I touch the screen they light up as well...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karsaliar:
What confuses me is this article then:

" connect(dot)dpreview(dot)com/post/7967117746/ "

If you scroll to the third paragraph in the subheading "Body & Design", it says:

"To the left and right of the home button you'll find two more capacitive buttons but they only light up when touched"

This is what i thought was true to - that the buttons only light up when you touch them, not when you touch the screen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bulbous:
Strange - Mine only light up when I touch them.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karsaliar:
Does anyone know if the capacitive buttons are supposed to light up when you press the screen? It seems like different people have different situations of when the buttons light up.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtl999:
They only light up when I touch the buttons or turn on the screen when the phone is locked.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
Hello,

I'm a little late to the Razr M game, but I just got a device off ebay since it's only about a year old and in great shape and quite cheap :good:

In any case, I've so far managed to unlock the radio for Tmobile in the US (GSM), and root it the device. Unfortunately, I didn't know when i bought it about the inability to unlock the bootloader with OTA from May and beyond, which mine is according to fastboot. I believe I came across the actual number being 98.18.78 somewhere.

So I've been doing a lot of reading, got SafeStrap running, made a stock backup, and am testing on slot1. However, I can't seem to get any CM ROM's running! Most of them 'boot' but then all I get is a blank screen, though I can connect with adb and therefore confirm that it does actually run some CM build.

I'm first of all somewhat confused on what ROM i should be using. I've found several links that should seem like they work, but none have succeeded (all have that halfway functionality that only works in ADB):

http://d-h.st/FgU

http://skrilax.droid-developers.org/cm10.1nightly/razrqcom/index.php?device=xt907

http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/scorpion_mini/cm10.1

http://skrilax.droid-developers.org/cm10.2nightly/razrqcom/index.php?device=xt907

I found these in various threads on XDA and droidrazr.com. I basically read the entire 55 pages of http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012093 and since the link in the first page is dead I tried all the links that came up on the thread, which got a couple of the links in my list above.

Also, I did run across the tip that I had to mount system in SafeStrap to get these working, no success. And what's this thing about having to wipe dalvik and system and cache two or three times??

Basically I'd like the proper, up to date link that should be working, along answer to above question and and other tips!

Thanks!!! I love the phone otherwise it's great :)

UPDATE:

I did manage to get an CyanogenMod spinning forever startup screen with an ancient rom described here http://www.droidviews.com/install-first-aosp-based-unofficial-cm10-rom-on-motorola-droid-razr-m-xt907/ which appears to have come again from the thread mentioned above. The link is now gone but I have the .zip that I must have snagged right before it disappeared!

Your boot ,which includes the kernel & recovery are locked. All the roms you list use a non stock kernel.

---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

There are others but they are not current.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Well, none of the custom ROMs out now will work with SS. Their are some stock based ROMs, one of which was posted by Avi, that will work with SS. There are some older ROMs that were designed for SS and they were built prior to April (when our bootloader was unlocked). You'll have to dig back a couple of page to find them. I know there was SS compatible CM10 in that link you posted, but I don't think the link is active for it anymore. If you decide to run an older SS compatible ROM on your newer system version, you're going to run into kernel issues. Things like the gallery not working and WiFi signal being weak. Your best bet right now is to load a stock ROM on slot 1 and start tweaking that with XPosed and enabling Init.d so you can get some performance tweaks going.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
Thanks for the response, I'll check those out. Glad to find some up to date roms haha

This is something I didn't realize/know before, good to know! That would explain some of the problems. May I ask how you know they don't use stock kernels? Just experience in the development process or is there a way to check?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
Thanks for the info, I'll have to do some research if aviwdoowks's pointers dont work out! Second day fiddling with this stuff on android so I don't know what XPosed is/what Init.d does (although I think Ubuntu has that file too...)

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
Thanks for the help and links, I have the deodexed SS version from your link working. I see that it is not a debloated version; is the odexed version debloated?

Also I was originally hoping for a ROM with functionality like Cyanogenmod, but I guess the situation is too specific for that too happen. I might be interested in getting to ROM making/customizing at some point, I did some preliminary reading, I should be able to edit the deoxed SS ROM and then 'stitch it up again' in simplest terms, and it will still work on my device, correct? I feel like editing a ROM would be a great way to learn more about Android/Linux/bootloaders etc before I go to college.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
The odexed is DST which means a debloated to the same specs at the Telstra build. The SD swap works on both.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
What is the telstra build? Is that the name of the stock motorola ROM that came with the device? Also I'm guessing SD swap is just a way have the phone treat the SD as internal memory?

Also, any idea if it would be possible or how difficult it would be to modify the ROM you linked me to to turn it into a Cyanogenmod port?

Thanks for all the help
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Telstra is the Australian firmware, I believe. If you want to port CM, you need to pull from their source. The DST ROM is a stock Moto ROM that's built by the Moto software team. You can't really take that and change it into a CM port, but you can make your own build environment and start building CM.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
Telstra is a carrier for the xt905. There are builds posted in our dev section. Any telstra rom is encrypted & if flashed w/ Rsd or Fastboot will brick an xt907.

Very difficult. Edit impossible.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyingsilverfin:
Alright thanks for the info. I was just doing some reading on the Linux Kernel. Since I am stuck with the stock motorola kernel, but this implements all the things I need to make the upper level, platform independent sys calls and other api's, there shouldn't be a need to build a special kernel for a cyanogenmod port, correct? If i port the higher level things everything that is implemented in cyanogenmod should work... am I getting this right? I'm trying to figure out what the OS kernel requirements are.
[General Questions and Answers] muddslang:
I'm trying to get an app to operate properly. The developer gave a few vague suggestions (didn't work) and then kinda blew it of as a device issue (don't entirely believe this). Any way, I'm trying to get Echovox 2.4 to work properly on nexus 7 2012, it works on the 2013 version. Echovox is a spirit communication app. It is supposed to use a random phonetic generator in combination with a realtime recording echo loop and delay function. The phonetics work without issue. My issue is the echo echo's but does not loop. Also the delay reverts to instantaneous repeat after a few seconds. Developer said this is a buffering issue. Im new to this and not sure of my options. I have unlocked, rooted, flashed custom ROM and kernels. Hasn't helped. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williem3:
Alright here is the situation I am in.

I rooted my phone so I could flash some custom roms. After realizing I can't receive MMS without being on stock I decided to return to the original state of my phone. I followed the Guru unroot thing but I downloaded and flashed the wrong recovery/radio file. Now my phone won't go to recovery because it's the touch screen recovery I am guessing which mine does not support and for some reason usb debugging isn't enabled and I can't enable it so going to fastboot and reflashing a new recovery isn't working.

When I do go to recovery I just see my screen light up a bit to a grey color but then it ends up turning into a black screen with a red triangle (error I'm guessing) that I must reboot the phone in order to get back to bootloader.

I'm lost right now at what to do because this is seriously scaring me. I'm currently on the World Wide Stock Recovery Guru file thing.

Please help!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeevan:
That sounds like the stock recovery. Can you try press the volume up button on that screen? That should get you into the stock recovery menu rather than your old custom recovery.

Is the phone booting ok? ie. Into Sense? What info is displayed on the bootloader screen?

Edit: I might be assuming a few too many things, as your description is very vague. Can you post links to what 'things' you downloaded, steps and options selected

It was booting to sense fine but it's okay now. I finally got it working, for some reason my USB port on my computer wasn't working so I switched ports and I was able to flash a new recovery and do the entire process over with the correct recovery/radio. Thank you though for your response!
