The command you have listed for the V510 as:

mkbootimg --base 0 --pagesize 2048 --kernel_offset 0x80208000 --ramdisk_offset 0x82200000 --second_offset 0x81100000 --tags_offset 0x80200100 --cmdline 'console=ttyHSL0,115200,n8 androidboot.hardware=palman lpj=67677 vmalloc=300M' --kernel kernel --ramdisk ramdisk.cpio.gz -o boot.emmc.win

For the v500 is listed by the unmkbootimg command as:

mkbootimg --base 0 --pagesize 2048 --kernel_offset 0x80208000 --ramdisk_offset 0x82200000 --second_offset 0x81100000 --tags_offset 0x80200100 --cmdline 'console=ttyHSL0,115200,n8 user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0x3F ehci-hcd.park=3 lpj=67677 androidboot.hardware=awifi vmalloc=600M' --kernel kernel --ramdisk ramdisk.cpio.gz -o boot.emmc.win

So your note about it being different for the v500 seems correct. I have followed your instructions up to this step and all seems well to this point.

I may have something that I can try to flash sometime this weekend... if that works I will document what the last part of the process is for the V500. If anyone else has been following along it looks like the kernel package that is going to be flashed to the gpad in recovery will need to use the loki tools in the updater script (at least that is what the example kernels I've been looking at do). I'm currently carefully tearing apart a couple of kernels for the GPAD and the G2 to see how they have done their updater-scripts as examples.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
That is really cool! I am going to be trying the same soon. If you get it all figured out I would appreciate it if you could outline what I would need for the 510 as well.

I'm assuming you will start your own kernel thread, but if you decide not to for whatever reason, I will be happy to host yours, both here and on github, with proper credit of course. Good Work!!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
I now have a working Anykernel script.

So, as it stands, I should have a flashable zip from recovery reeeaaal soon! I need to get the stock situation sorted first. I could release My latest kernel as it would flash, but there would not be a way to go back to stock yet. Guess I'll let ya know! -

EDIT- Released sleekai4.1r installable zip in recovery.

[MENTION=5143648]muiriddin[/MENTION] , Sent you a message-
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Canadoc:
Does this mean you are closer to having a kernel that can be flashed for us v 500 people?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Read the whole page. Muiriddin is working on a 500 kernel. It may still be a while as there is a lot to do!

You should send me a 500 device! I'll get a kernel for you! Lol.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Canadoc:
I did, but thought your issue with v 500 was no way to flash it to the device. Since v 500 has CWM or twrp recovery options I thought maybe you crossed that barrier.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Nah, same issues about not having the device to test on. Sometimes that takes a while. Getting the kernel into a flashable zip for the 510 took at least 15 trys to get it right, and I still can't get a flashable zip for the original boot image made. I decided people could restore from their backup so I let it go for now. There is a lot more to it than just slapping the image into an existing flash file. Muiriddin is on the right path. Hopefully he will get it figured out!

V500 Progress

First of all, I want to apologize for potentially distracting V510 users from Sleekmason's kernel. That is not my intention and in fact when I get something that I think is ready I will start my own thread.

Sleekmason was nice enough to post the instructions on building a V510 kernel, this got me started on my V500 project. With his instructions (posted in the first and second post of this thread) I have been able to build a V500 kernel. The problem is once you get a kernel to build the installation and testing process diverges between the V500 and V510. In addition the last thing I want to do is to accidentally brick my device. Therefore I've been very carefully analyzing several things in order to prevent creating an expensive paper weight.

So, here is what progress I have so far (and I too wish I was further along at this point).

1. I have a kernel that has built from LG downloaded source based upon the instructions in post 1 and modifications in post 2 of this thread.

2. I have looked closely at the dyn-kernel's installation script since it uses loki for installation which us V500 owners have to deal with since we have a locked boot loader.

3. I am currently worried about the fact that the source I downloaded from LG does NOT by default create the same list of kernel modules that I have on my device by default. However I have flashed my device to Mahdi and back and am starting to wonder if I have some "left overs" or not on my device.

The kernel modules I appear to be missing in my kernel build are:

cfg80211.ko

texfat.ko

vpnclient.ko

wlan.ko

I'm not sure yet what this means... Time for me to poke around some kernel source and see if I can find out some additional things...

If someone has a stock device that has only been rooted and at most had recovery added and is willing to, please do the following and post the results:

1. Install terminal emulator from the play store

2. run it

3. type cd /system/lib/modules

4. type ls *.ko

copy the output from the command and post it or pm it to me so I can see if it matches my device.

My device reports the following:

adsprpc.ko

ansi_cprng.ko

bluetooth-power.ko

cfg80211.ko

commkm.ko

control_trace.ko

dma_test.ko

evbug.ko

gspca_main.ko

hid-logitech-dj.ko

lcd.ko

mcdrvmodule.ko

mckernelapi.ko

msm-buspm-dev.ko

mvpkm.ko

pvtcpkm.ko

qce40.ko

qcedev.ko

qcrypto.ko

scsi_wait_scan.ko

spidev.ko

test-iosched.ko

texfat.ko

vpnclient.ko

wlan.ko

Thanks!

-- Added after above was posted --

Thank you for sending me a listing... The additional listing I saw matched what I have above except the prima_wlan.ko was not inside a separate directory. So poking around I next thought I would try lsmod on the device to see what modules the kernel believes are loaded. The result on my device was:

adsprpc

wlan

vpnclient

texfat

Three of those four are ones that are "missing" from my build *sigh* going to have to take a look at some source and configure files in the kernel source again...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Are you using the correct def-config? The "readme" attached to the source will show which one to use. Doesn't make sense that any modules would be missing or unidentified in the source code.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muiriddin:
I believe so but I need to double check what I have done.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] AndroidUser00110001:
Are you just trying to flash boot.img from zip file in recovery?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Already took care of it for the 510, and have a kernel that can be booted from recovery on my kernel thread for download.

The 500 device does not yet have a zip from recovery, but does now have a kernel.

I would like to have a copy if you have a script laid out for the 500.

Both [MENTION=5143648]muiriddin[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5534237]Bob2702[/MENTION] are working on 500 kernels, with Bob having one released on his own thread.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] AndroidUser00110001:
Did you figure out yet how to make boot.img file? If not, I believe if you put your kernel source into the CM source and run make bootimage you should get a boot.img file.

Ignore this if you have a different method :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Yep! Part of my zip in recovery for the sleekai kernel... But, thank you for the info! ?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] AndroidUser00110001:
I have a part of the device tree for the v510 for AOSP based ROMs. It's what [MENTION=4557482]Drgravy[/MENTION] helped me with and what is used to build recovery. I asked you in another thread about kernel help, can you check CM Kernel source and v510 kernel source so I have a working kernel when I am ready to build and test CM for v510. I am not 100% sure if stock kernel source will work with CM build because there might be some tweaks that might need to be made for CM.

Thanks!

Hit me up on G+ or PM. My G+ is my user name here on XDA [MENTION=5499064]gmail.com[/MENTION]
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] sleekmason:
Howdy, probably just the opposite, maybe. CyanogenMod wants us to use CyanogenMod sources for anything dealing with their rom. That being said, the kernel for the V 510 should work adequately to get us started. Afterwards, it would be an issue of finding errors that are specifically CyanogenMod based and patching it up. This would go either way.

That is, whether you used the CyanogenMod kernel or the stock kernel. Either one will probably need some tweaking but, we know the stock kernel works with this device so that would probably be a good place to start. if you compile the stock kernel into your ROM you should find if there are any compile errors based on CyanogenMod discrepancies / dependencies.

honestly, I don't think there should be any as the ramdisk is made for our device and the kernel will control options that will work on our device they're just may be a few missing the CyanogenMod natively uses. If that is the case, I can compile them into a new kernel or adjust the CyanogenMod kernel to work better with our device.

if you think I'm missing something in my thinking, please let me know and I will try to figure something out. I will be happy to look at the CyanogenMod based sources. Do you have a link to what you would like to use? you get us up and running and I will start tweaking the kernel for that rom as well. I would love to have the opportunity. It sounds like a lot of fun.

Have a question regarding your process. I have loaded CM12.1 onto my V500, and downloaded the source code to by PC. My questions is, are there any issues in using this same process on the CM12.1 as opposed to the source code you grabbed from LG? Thanks.

I tried scanning past threads for this issue but I am not seeing anything recently that is close.

Here is my issue....I rooted my i545 from Verizon running 4.3 , build ver. MK2. Got Rom Manager, installed ClockworkMod 6.0.4.4 and it flashed without issue...so it said.

So when I reboot into recovery mode, it tells me it errors out but it's saying the recovery mode is Android Recovery mode, like the CWM recovery did not take. Is this an issue with my Verizon i545 or is this a new issue?

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I have rooted some Droid phones in the past but this is my first attempt at this Samsung...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ictdog:
Riker- Thanks for the links for the education. Not being a guru in development, I usually don't use this site when I have been researching for the last week at "other" sites that have never mentioned all that was shared on the links you provided. Unfortunately, with there being so many different flavors of builds, models, providers...it's hard for us to weed out the bad info and know what to do with the good. I know that having the same question asked numerous times is bother to "some" gurus out there, and it is pleasing to see some of you that help directing us even when we make a forum faux pas...

I am not a 14 year old kid trying to brick my cell to be cool. I'm a 26 year veteran detective in a major city doing computer and mobile device forensics. I try to keep up on what the trends are to assist in doing extractions on mobile devices by trying out some techniques with my own. So, where I am not anywhere near the expert in what you guys do, I have some working knowledge, and soon to be trained in JTag and Chip-Off extraction recoveries...so if I miss a few posts and land here by mistake, please be easy on me.

Again, Riker, the help was appreciated and I'll try and not bother the rest of you with my insanely ridiculous requests...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ictdog:
Bob- Understood.

All I was trying to state is that after weeks of searching "other" forums for "i545 recovery issue" and ignoring the XDADevelopers forum hits as I felt they were not relevant to my situation, I finally looked in this forum, ran a search for "i545 recovery issue" in XDADevelopers and did not see the posts that Riker linked to. Even with some of the terms I was searching for, I did not see situations relevant to my device and issue...but, a lot of that was my interpretation of what was being discussed...some of which was WAY above my head...

If they had a "Newbie Samsung SCH-i545 Root and Rom forum" and they spoke r-e-a-l slow, I might have half a chance at understanding all this stuff. Until then, I will lurk in the shadows of the forum and glean what I can off of your higher powers of Android Knowledge.

[General Questions and Answers] bimfi:
In January of 2011, I rooted and unlocked my Samsung Captivate running Android 2.2. Now that I have upgraded to a new/different phone, I want to factory reset my Captivate before giving it away. I was looking on my PC for my unlock code, in case the factory reset re-locked the phone, but could not find it. I tried to get the code again from my phone using the "SuperOneClick" app, but when I ran it it failed. It gave me the following message:

So, my question is really this. Will factory reset re-lock the phone?

Update: I took the plunge and went ahead with the factory unlock. After it rebooted, it was true to word reset. Except that it DID remain UNLOCKED. That was good to know.

Hi!

I have an Indian Tablet called penta T-pad, and I have problems connecting with Tp-link Td-W8901G router. The First one is that the tablet doesn't connect instantly to the router using Wi-Fi . it shows in the Wi-Fi network list that the Wi-Fi access point is "saved, secured with WAP/WAP2", And it doesn't connect until I tried several times and when it connected (this is the second problem) it sometimes doesn't send or receive and data. And I have tried resetting the tablet and the router and changing the broadcast channels and use static IP... But, this doesn't work.

By the way, other devices (smart phones, laptops...) can connect to the router without problems, and my tablet was working well during the last six months connecting to the same router. And now, it can connect to other routers or access points (i.e. portable Wi-Fi hotspot).

Thanks in advance, I am looking forward to your replays.

Hi I have very similar problems with my devices!

I noticed it is extremely popular problem being discussed everywhere, but no general solution is ready yet, neither straight way of diagnostic...

Only some particular solutions sometimes appear, but they are for particular cases, usually involving deep and accurate adjustment and "pairing" of gadget and equipment.

It would be good to know any general tips like where to look for any info about the wifi connecting process, what are the possible reasons to fail to connect when the signal is high, wifi is visible, password is 100% correct, etc.

Perhaps we can find the log of wifi connecting process, switch it to debug mode, show to experts?

Please, experts, we are all waiting for your replies!
