Hello, I would like to create a new kernel for the Sony Xperia m4 Aqua E2303.

On the forum xperia site.pl got information that here in this forum Sony mobile

Has released information on how to compile a new kernel and information about wastewater.

I am very grateful to you for your support.

[Acer Iconia A500] Birdhead111:
I have an Acer Iconia A500 with Honeycomb 3.0. How can I install Acer Recover Installer or another recovery that will work. The tablet is rooted but when I put it in recovery mode to upgrade the ROM it starts then gives me A triangle with a "!" It won't take the Google Play Acer Recovery Installer app. Are there any ROM's that had good success on this tablet with 3.0? I will be happy with anything above Android 4.
[Acer Iconia A500] turnert:
You need to unlock the bootloader
[Acer Iconia A500] Birdhead111:
Thanks...but

How do I unlock the bootloader on this tablet? My Android experience is thus far limited to Samsung and using Odin and Kies.

[Acer Iconia A500] Birdhead111:
Won't unlock

I've tried what you suggested. Even downloaded adb and fastboot to my Windows 10. My Acer Iconia A500 is recognized by ADB and I can get it to reboot from adb back into the tablet on status but I can't get it to reboot into bootloader.
[Acer Iconia A500] turnert:
Is the custom bootloader installed? Or is it the stock bootloader that you can't get to?

If you can get the custom bootloader installed try turning on your tablet and typing

Adb reboot bootloader (make sure USB debuging is enabled)

Once the tablet restarts type:

fastboot oem unlock

This probably won't work, it works on the A200 so I guess it's worth a shot
[Acer Iconia A500] Birdhead111:
Recover

It is original. Debugging is enabled. I tried "Adb reboot bootloader" and tablet rebooted then "fastboot oem unlock" and it just comes back "waiting for any device" and just sits there.
[Acer Iconia A500] turnert:
You need to have USB debugging enabled or it won't work.

USB debugging is enabled. I understand that is necessary and have had it enabled for everything I've tried.
[Acer Iconia A500] Birdhead111:
Got TWRP Recovery installed

I finally was able to get TWRP recovery installed on my Acer Iconia A500. I was able to erase cache and Delvc cache. I intalled a custom rom that I had downloade for this tablet (Kitkat4.4.4) but when I tried to reboot, it just hangs on the Acer screen. So I tried a different ROM - and ICS version for A500. It still sticks on the Acer sceen on bootup. Could the problet still be that the bootloader is locked? How do I unlock it or get past the hang at boot?
[Acer Iconia A500] turnert:
Most likely that's the reason but with twrp it should make it easier to install the custom Bootloader. The bootloader may look difficult, but it is easy to install if you follow the instructions. I would recommend installing a stock bases custom ROM(ICS would be best) for now so that you can try and unlock the bootloader.
[Acer Iconia A500] mayur6522:

You need to go to the tegraowners website there is a twrp thread you can get it from.

About the ROM

This is a build of LineageOS 14.1 (Nougat) for the Samsung Galaxy SL (GT-I9003)

Things to take a note of

This ROM is still a Work In Progress. As such, some features do not work, as listed ahead

Make sure you keep a backup of your files. This update WILL wipe every partition (/system, /cache, /data, /sdcard).

IMPORTANT: Returning to an older ROM is non-trivial because this update applies a different partitioning scheme. To return to another version, flash the boot.img (possibly using heimdall or bml_over_mtd) of the ROM you wish to install, reboot to recovery, and flash.

ADB does not authenticate any requests. Hence, ensure you disable ADB if you're not a developer.

Steps to flash

Reboot to Recovery.

Wipe Data / Factory Reset.

Select the ROM zip from your SD Card and flash. It will reboot to TWRP.

Flash the ROM zip again. It WILL fail on this flash to let you go back to an older boot.img to stop installation if you wish to. Flash again to continue.

Flash GApps (OpenGApps pico package recommended).

Reboot. First boot can take 15mins or so.

NOTE: When upgrading from an older version of this ROM, it's recommended to wipe /system due to certain issues with the installer not updating the boot image correctly.

Just curiosity- what is the sense in 7 android on so weak hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Just to show that it can be done, and a passion for reusing old hardware :p
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] smsry:
Can someone pls enlighten me as soon as possible.....?? Is this ROM stable?? And it is written in the post that the status is given as Beta........ wt does that mean??.......Nd i did not understand......Why is it not possible to go back to an older ROM?? I need a detailed instructions (if pssble) how to get back to the previous ROM...... Currently iam using CM 11.......Can't I get back to my previous nandroid backup of this current ROM ?? pls answer this ASAP......Want to try how this ROM actually looks like on my GT-I9003......And i sincerely request someone to post the screens of this ROM pls.............. :)

And would like to know wat is the difference btwn This Lineage ROM nd the Omni ROM....??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
You don't have to double post :D

This ROM is *somewhat* stable, however there are features missing (mobile data, GPS, video playback, etc.). Alpha and Beta are measures of how stable a version is (Alpha < Beta < Stable, in order of stability).

The reason you cannot go to a previous Android version is because I have repartitioned the phone's internal storage for a bigger /system partition and no internal /sdcard storage (it is now emulated storage). You can return to a previous ROM by flashing the stock ROM (to be more specific, the boot.img), rebooting to recovery and restoring your ROM backup.

I can post some screenshots soon, if needed :)

I started by porting Omni to our phone, to see if it was possible. Then I went for Lineage because it contains more features. So the Omni port is no longer active, It's recommended to use this LineageOS port.

Also, the Omni port uses the same partitioning format as older ROMs but at the disadvantage of having no system partition space for GApps and lesser fixes.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] smsry:
Thanks fr the reply!!!!

YES!!! i would love to see some screenshots....... :D

sorry but iam a noob at all this......I actually have another doubt too......

As u said that i should flash the stock rom..... here wt does a BOOT.IMG mean??

If u reply to this As soon as possible i would like to know wat all precautions should i take before flashing this rom.....

Bcoz this is the frst time iam seeing that u can't go back to the previous rom....

Usually i would take a nand. backup and test out a new rom nd then i wld go back to my previous backup......

Iam askin all these because the first time i flashed the Omni Rom a month before....... Nd i actually bricked my phone......

I got this "phone -exclamation-pc" icon everytime i try to get into BOOT mode or RECOVERY........

Then i recoverd safely after flashing the stock rom.......

Nd Instead of 7.1.2 for i9003 I would love to see 5.0 or 6.0 for this device......

Cant find any Lollipop or Marshmellow ROMS for the SL......

And i sincerely thank you for creating this NEW ROM for the SL..... :)

Have'nt seen any new ROMS lately after the CM11

(nd plssssss once think abt making a 5.0 ROM fr the SL.......What is ur opinion abt it......?? Iam sure it would look great on the SL.....) :)

Once again thank u for the reply.....

(ppl on xda surely are pretty friendly..... :P )
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Will send screenshots soon :D

You can ignore that and just go ahead with flashing the stock ROM. The boot.img file is essentially the file that contains the boot code and recovery of the phone (in simplified terms)

The main precautions you should keep in mind are that the Internal SD card is now emulated, so wiping data will wipe any photos/music stored in internal storage. The safest place to keep your files are on an external SD card (keep your CM11 backup there, too)

The exclamation mark error is when the phone can't find the boot code, that might've been the ROM flash geting stopped partway. You can recover from that using Odin.

I actually did make a 5.0.2 NamelessROM build, but it's not very usable as such. Lollipop had an issue which used up phone RAM too much. Our phone having 512MB of RAM just made it worse. In between I was away on other tasks and so, by the time I returned, Nougat was latest. Hence, it didn't make sense (atleast to me :p) to make a Marshmallow ROM when Nougat was the one in development.

You're welcome :D

As said above, a 5.0.2 build exists, which isn't very usable. A Marshmallow ROM doesn't exist for our phone but if one wishes to build CyanogenMod 13.0 for our device, I can give help :D

XDA and other internet forums are not all that friendly, just make sure you follow the rules of the forum :D

Cheers!

i need stable recovery for i9003
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
In the i9003 and other Samsung devices, the recovery is part of the boot partition. You can't switch recoveries independently of the current ROM (unless the main reason you want the recovery is just for the recovery or you patch the boot.img)

If you want to run a recovery, you have to get the boot.img file (taken from a ROM or otherwise) and flash it to the phone using heimdall/odin/flash_image. You'll have a recovery but it won't boot into Android.

Hi,

I have the same problem. Is there a solution ?

When , i choose "Toggle script asserts" on CWM , this error disappear and the installation continue.

But at the end, the phone has a loop reboot on TWRP . No way to boot on LineageOS.

Thank you.

LineageOS 15.1 Oreo (Go edition)

[MENTION=6570040]Technohacker1995[/MENTION] , do you plan to support LineageOS 15.1 Oreo (Go edition) for our devices ?

I Think it will be a great idea to get this device to work with "LineageOS 15.1 Oreo (Go edition)".

The OS is built to deal with a device with low ram and with optimized apps for better performance and lower space
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
I'm thinking of doing that, actually (more for Project Treble, rather). I can't guarantee anything though :P

If I get enough time, I'll try porting it over :D

What remains to be fixed in the 7.1 port, however, is Mobile Data, GPS, H/W Video acceleration and other features listed in the main post. The same pains would be applicable here too.

Technohacker

(P.S. MAN, what happened to XDA? It never notified me for all these posts :eek:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
This ROM uses LVM partitions for a bigger /system partition. Hence it isn't compatible with previous partitioning schemes. I've actually added a part in the script to make sure it flashes and boots into TWRP first, because it acts as an intermediary for the actual install. You'll want to flash the ROM thrice: 1) Install LVM-partitioned TWRP (Reboots), 2) Act as a confirmation step (fails) 3) Actual install by wiping everything (should succeed) (there were supposed to be messages for each flash) .

As for a solution, if you're comfortable with Heimdall, flash the NORMALBOOT partition in download mode with the boot.img in the zip file. Then boot into recovery (TWRP) to continue for the two flashes.

Download mode is ALWAYS accessible, so don't worry, your phone isn't dead.

I've been quite busy with other things, so I couldn't put much focus onto this.

It's a nice possibility, and if I'm able to get Project Trble support for the device, it'll get equal support for later releases as any other launch-Oreo device :D

No, it doesn't, because it's an unofficial build.

Again, sorry for not responding earlier, XDA never notified me of these posts

K.....I know i may sound frustrating, but when can we expect the new update for this rom??

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
A while ago, I noticed that postmarketOS has a port for our device. It's oriented toward legacy devices. I might jump ship to it rather than continue with Android, but it's still in active development. I'd recommend all users to move to pmOS with maybe Plasma Mobile or any other UI later on.

Just install Gboard or any other keyboard...

Thats what i did...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] logan666jas:
hey thanks for help....i got the solution byr not to install gapps..... btw the another big issue is com.android.phone crashes every time during call annd after that no sim card error but people can call me but no notification ring or vib shows on screen............hope it will fix in the update.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Sorry for the late reply :P

For the keyboard issue, go to TWRP, mount /system, delete every file in /system/app/LatinIME/lib/arm/ *EXCEPT* libjni_latinime.so. Remove the files with the same name from /system/lib as well. Reboot and it'll work :D

As for the call issue, my development environment's been a mess for quite a while. I don't know how much time I can keep for the device so I can't guarantee updates :/
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] logan666jas:
alright bro just keep it up......any good news yet?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Well, academics and other side projects getting in my way, so I doubt I could devote any time :(

However, I really want postmarketOS gaining speed. Android is getting heavier and less usable for old phones. pmOS will offer a much, much lighter alternative.

As for that call issue, I remember fixing it. I've uploaded my changes to my device repository on GitHub so if anyone can spare their resources, they can compile using my repository :D

Cheers!

It's somewhat stable, but it's very constrained on memory, so expect slowdowns :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Awfully sorry for the delay but I finally made an update to the ROM :P

I've fixed the call crash, but most features remain incomplete.

First post updated with the link: lineage-14.1-20170826-UNOFFICIAL-galaxysl.zip :D

On a side note: What do you feel about me providing a CoinHive shortlink (Like those link shorteners that show ads, but without ads) to the ROM, which will support me when the link is clicked? It won't annoy you with ads, it just uses your CPU for a short duration and redirects you immediately. Of course I can always provide a direct link if necessary :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bageraz:

Nothing too great really, just a sync up to the then-latest LineageOS code and a fix for the RIL crashing after a call :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bageraz:
Ok thanks for the reply. Still it is a surprise this device still get community support. I still want to revisit this device but until i have replaced the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Well, I made this port just for the fun of it, cuz this port is borderline useful due to increased memory usage :silly:

As for the battery, any place I can snag one for my phone? My battery's pretty puffed up :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bageraz:
Yeah that is why most of my apps goes to SD storage, to coupe with storage issues. Just want to use for business phone, mostly for whatsapp & Telegram.

For battery replacement, u can find in lazada, alibaba or amazon. But in my country (Malaysia) the battery replacement are plenty and quite easy to find in most smartphone shops. I prefer Lazada more for discount hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
postmarketOS development seems to be picking up pace. I think I'll focus on helping the existing porting effort :D

It just bootloop on twrp without getting to lineage. I'm keeping flashing only rom and rom+gapps but it wont boot
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] MauriJ2001:
try this

Flash XXKPE

Flash CWM

enter to cwm and flash CM 11

Boot to CM11

in CM 11 do a factory reset

Flash the rom

in TWRP flash the rom again 2 times and try to wipe /system and cache with EXT4 and Wipe /Data first with EXT2 and then wipe with EXT4

flash the rom only

Reboot

wait 15 minutes to boot the rom and reboot to recovery

Flash Gapps

Enjoy! :good:

this rom willl get another update or the proyect is dead :confused:

and nice work the rom is working fine in my I9003L
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] LR7875:
The OP said that he is moving his support to postmarketos, which is a mobile edition of Linux(linux is the enemy of windows).

This ROM, support-wise, is mostly dead and probably, if you want something new and more secure(like android 11 or what), better upgrade to a newer phone.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Technohacker1995:
Yes I'm unfortunately unable to continue support for the device as my i9003's battery died a long time ago with no replacement :/

That being said, I've been getting multiple share requests for this ROM so I'll fix the download link again :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] huguitovi:
In my country you can still get the batteries for this equipment, let me know if you want one. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the great job you have done. Thanks to
