Thank you for your answer, but are you sure? I already get the boot animation.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't S-OFF just to prevent me from flashing a custom OS and HBOOT is there to start the boot process, similar to a BIOS?

If I really need to downgrade my HBOOT, I am in real trouble. ADB and fastboot.exe won't find my device when it's in FASTBOOT USB mode. ADB will find it, when it's booted (USB debugging on) or when 4EXT recovery is running. I already tried my PC and my laptop and googled many hours yesterday after reading your post without any luck. I don't think the wire trick will work without this connection :/

* I run Win8.1 Pro x64. Could this be a problem with my Windows?

* Update on that: grabbed some mac, tried adb - no devices. But fastboot (`./fastboot-mac devices`) found it o_O

* Update: Live Ubuntu worked. I could do the wire trick with JuopunutBear :)

* Managed to downgrade HBOOT to 1.49.0007. But it got locked again and now has some stock Gingerbread on it. 4EXT was removed, too o_O

* wow... finally. Unlocked device, flashed EXT4, installed LS....... booted up :)

Thank you! This thread is resolved. I wrote down everything I did. Maybe it can be of help to someone.

Can anyone port the stock LG notebook app so that it works on AOSP
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rastigat:
Hi today I tried to use the LG G2 "Notebook" stock App.

In the contextual menù , there is also the possibility to set a Password, so I set it but the App never request this Password, even deleting the App from the background or restarting the device. Never.

Is it a bug? Maybe it was working in the first releases and then nobody has done the non-regression test?

Thanks.

Ignore this message. I found that the Password is not used to open the App, but you can choose a Note and select the "Lock" option. Then, to read/open the Note you have to digit the Password.

[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] gattytto:
Hello, I've been reading the thread about BinExtractor and it seems to work with original TOT firmwares that now we can download using some nice methods (like going to a url and putting the IMEI or there's even an APP that does the same).

In my case I'm trying with 10B_00.tot for my E431g

Now, the latest binextractor seems to properly read the magic numbers from my tot file header but it's not able to extract the img files from it.

So I have already asked the developer to add my model to the supported devices but I would like to have more understanding of the TOT file headers so we could develop our own apps or even do things manually.

Does anyone have any information on how to better understand those headers it'd be really nice. So far I got to the part of "reading the first datablock" from the file but I don't really know what the app does with those (as follows):

/*SET FIRST DATABLOCK*/
dataBlock.blockOff = 0x2010;
dataBlock.blockSize = 12;
dataBlock.numItems = 4;

dataBlock.items = calloc(sizeof(Item), 4);
dataBlock.items[0].type = DISK_OFF;
dataBlock.items[0].size = 4;
dataBlock.items[1].type = FILE_OFF;
dataBlock.items[1].size = 4;
dataBlock.items[2].type = FILE_SIZE;
dataBlock.items[2].size = 4;
dataBlock.items[3].type = SKIP;
dataBlock.items[3].size = 4;

I have attached the mentioned datablock, the red-square is that 0x2010 offset start.

[MENTION=4669225]xonar_[/MENTION] maybe you could give us some explanation of what those header parts mean and how can we know what to do depending on the differences. Here I'm trying to concentrate on L3 II header files.

Thanks to all in advance!

Here's a little find I did searching for "ro.secure" inside the TOT

for me it looks like something related to the persist partition with a residing anti-root consistency check.. this is why it would be great to extract all the partitions from the firmware, we need a full check to make sure all this **** is gone before flashing anything to a phone.

[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] gattytto:
Hi, thanks a lot for your repply and the info, I'd like to answer to your question at the bottom of you post:

what I'm trying to do now is to examine all the .img files included inside the latest original .tot available for download from LG, mainly because since the last update it's impossible to root the e431g using vroot or any other 1-click rooting tool.

so far I've been able to unpack recovery and apps img (9-APPS.img and 17-RECOVERY.img) with their kernel and ramdisk.gz.

there are some things that I still don't understand, for example the existense of secundary recovery.img and oemsbl.img, so I have 17-RECOVERY.img, recovery.img, 3-OEMSBL.img and oemsbl.img

also I'm still trying to unpack some of the IMG files since they seem to be some special filesystem like yaffs2 but I haven't found any tool to browse them (didn't try converters 'cause that's not the approach I'm looking for). right now I'm compiling a 3.16-r2 kernel with the yaffs2 module that I tried modding to compile for that kernel (was hard job indeed).

my approach is to try modify the files present in my original downloaded TOT to root and unlock the bootloader to flash them back into my phone, thus trying to avoid bricking the phone.

you use skype or something?

here's a list of what I get:

10-MODEM_ST1.img: empty
11-MODEM_ST2.img: empty
12-MODEM.img: data
13-MODEM_BACKUP.img: data
14-SYSTEM.img: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (extents) (large files)
15-PERSIST.img: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (extents) (large files)
16-CACHE.img: empty
17-RECOVERY.img: data
18-DRM.img: empty
19-FOTA.img: empty
20-USERDATA.img: empty
21-DLOAD.img: empty
22-BOOT_LOGO_IMAGE.img: data
23-MPT.img: empty
24-ENCRYPT.img: empty
25-CUST.img: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (extents) (large files)
26-rct.img: empty
2-QCSBL.img: x86 boot sector; partition 1: ID=0x4d, active, starthead 0, startsector 1, 40 sectors; partition 2: ID=0x45, starthead 0, startsector 41, 2048 sectors; partition 3: ID=0x46, starthead 0, startsector 2089, 8192 sectors; partition 4: ID=0x5, starthead 0, startsector 10281, 7501784 sectors, code offset 0x0
3-OEMSBL.img: data
4-EXT.img: x86 boot sector; partition 1: ID=0x47, starthead 0, startsector 120791, 8192 sectors; partition 2: ID=0x5, starthead 0, startsector 1, 1 sectors, extended partition table, code offset 0x0
5-APPSSBL.img: Hitachi SH big-endian COFF object, not stripped
6-WALLPAPER.img: empty
7-MODEM_BACKUP.img: empty
8-misc.img: empty
9-APPS.img: data
oemsbl.img: data
recovery.img: data

also I've seen some info on mounting boot sector files like 4-EXT.img and 2-QCSBL.img but the file systems from those sectors don't seem to get recognized by the mount command.. so I'm guessing there's a filesystem module missing in my linux distro (that's why I'm compiling this other one).

I see :)

i have tried unpacking .dz before but i was never successful as all of tools are outdated :(

only way i found to extract the .kdz is flashing it to phone and adb dd and pull from device but for that you need root (did you check the latest vroot ?

anyway i have made tool to dump and name all(skipping the sdcard) partitions from phone(L3 II) found HERE

also i made a tool to list ALL of files in phone in easy to read directory format found HERE*this also includes my filelist.txt for compare in case you want and does not require root

also here is my boot.img unpacked BOOT BROKENDOWN

i think you did not get a chance to read the attached file yet but inside you find that lg flashing software does :

it means none of these are inside the .kdz

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baga255:
Well, you can't flash any stock-based ROM with Flashtool. WIth FlashTool you can flash Stock Rom (Official Sony firmwares - .ftf files), but for other custom ROMs based on Stock, you need to have a recovery installed (XZDualRecovery, CWM or similar).

Is your 4.2.2 rom rooted? If yes, you can install a recovery on it (following this thread), and then you can upgrade to KitKat following this thread. After that, you can basically install any custom stock-based KitKat ROM of your choice, from by flashing from recovery.

Goes without saying, read the threads really carefully before doing any actions.

If you're unsure how everything works, you always have a reference in this thread.

hey folks I've got a huge problem and I hope someone can help me or forward me to someone who might know!

So I had some very important data on my HTC One on the sdcard folder (/data/sdcard/Android is the specific folder) and I did a little ROM flashing on monday. So far everything went quite brilliant but today I recognised the data was lost so I googled for 3 hours and tried to do an IMG Backup of the whole /data path with the terminal on my mac. It went well so far with the commands

./adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p35 of=/sdcard/databackup.img

But the problem is that this command does a full backup of /data which is far bigger than the free 7GB on /data/sdcard where the backup will be saved on. That means it throws errors after half an error of backing up and canceling the process by saving the largest possible file on the sdcard.

Does someone maybe know one of these points:

1) how to specify the path which folder should be backed up

2) backup via mtp

3) transfer the data directly to the computer without saving anything on data/sdcard

I really don't know if this is the right category to post in but I trust in you guys and I think that this is my last chance to maybe save the lost files

What about using an OTG and mounting a larger SD Card to backup to?
