Ok guys,

So after having seen a million and one questions on how to extract RFS files and all the complex answers we keep getting on mounting rfs files in linux and blah blah blah (all a waste of time if all you need is to view/extract files from an RFS file from some firmware)... and now there is no excuse for those few requesting other members to extract stuff for them.. you can do it yourself! :p

Here is the easy/fast way to do it without having to go through all the trouble

NOTE: This, mind you is mainly for extracting/viewing. Not for editing RFS files.

Go to:

-http://www.magiciso.com/

-Download MagicISO (its free trial but that don't matter for viewing/extracting)

-Install

-Open MagicISO

-Hit File->Open

-In the section "Files of type:" - Click the drop down and select "All Files (*.*)"

-Select RFS file of your choosing (For example: factoryfs.rfs where all firmware apps are located)

and..

VIOLA!

Browse/Extract anything you need... No hassles.

To extract you can simply click and drag to another folder/desktop as needed

Cheers!

Just tried it with UltraISO. It seems to work, too.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chuckbeasley:
MagicISO didn't work for me. I copied the .rfs file to a directory on Linux and mounted as read/write and was able to modify the file system. Then, I unmounted it and flashed the changes to my GT using Heimdall.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] seven2099:
This guide is only for browsing and extracting RFS files hence the name. It is not for modification. :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] chuckbeasley:
I'm aware of what the original post was explaining. I tried that solution and it failed. That's why I suggested another method. MagicISO didn't work for me. If others try it and it doesn't work for them either, at least they have another solution that will always work and the option to modify the file system, if they so choose.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] daniel.weck:
That's the Linux command line, right ?

#mount -o loop factoryfs.rfs /mnt/rfs

Otherwise on Mac OS X, you can use this:

#sudo mkdir /Volumes/RFS

#sudo hdiutil attach -imagekey diskimage-class=CRawDiskImage -nomount ARCHIVE.rfs

#sudo mount_msdos /dev/disk{n} /Volumes/RFS
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Adapt0r:
Please don't forget when you finished on OSX to run:

sudo umount /Volumes/RFS/

hdiutil detach /dev/disk{n}

i can't open the factoryfs.rfs of a samsung galaxy s. can anyone send me the /lib folder from galaxy s and the flash apk in the app folder...thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Robin M:
Didn't work for me either. MagicISO did extract four files only from factoryfs.rfs.

Two were exe files of significant size... Samsun_Mobile_USB_Driver.exe, and ToolLauncher-Bootstrap.exe.

All the files apk files are probably empedded in the first of those, but no further extraction was possible from the .exe file using MagicISO.

I'm trying to find the origianal VZW Vcast apk files that I stupidly deleted instead of just renaming. I need them so the EC02 update script will run. Any ideas, anyone?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] seven2099:
you could look up the long way of mounting and extracting RFS.. Its a major pain though, why dont you make a post asking for those missing files in the forum.

EDIT: Since I'm not allowed to post links directly to the Swype version that is fixed, I will instead show you how to make it work.

Since its a simple fix, here is the version of Swype that properly scales in widescreen/landscape!

It is a lot better than the one that comes with stock JM6/JMA.

Noob friendly installation guide: :D

Go to:

Now, to open the RFS file:

then

-Move files over to your device

-Go to Settings-> Applications-> All-> Swype

-Select Force Stop

-Clear settings

next

-Use Root Explorer (mount as R/W) to copy over Swype.apk to ->System/App

-Overwrite old apk

-Set permissions to rw-r--r-- (to set permissions tap the file and hold for menu)

-Copy over libSwypeCore.so to ->System/lib

-Overwrite old apk

-Set permissions to rw-r--r--

-Exit, switch to swype

-Switch to landscape mode and test..

-Delete facebook

-Hit the gym

-Profit...?

The end!

Folio Accelerometer Fix - BETA

This is a first BETA version of the rotation/accelerometer fix for the Folio 100, tested on FolioMod 1.2 only.

Checked with these applications:

- Wave Blazer Lite

- Raging Thunder 2 Lite

- Abduction! 2

Known Issues:

- Compass is not working, i.E any Compass app or for example Google Sky Map does not point you in the correct direction.

Note, this is NOT an update zip, at the moment I have no SDCard to verify that the update works, therefore you must push the files manually onto the device. Or wait until someone provides an update zip for these files.

Installation instructions.

- unzip the attached zip file into any directory you like

- enter the bin directory, where you should find 2 files (framework.jar, libsurfacflingeR_client.so)

- verify that your device is connected by running adb devices from a command line

- Remount the system partion read/write by entering: adb remount

- push the framework.jar to the device: adb push framework.jar /system/framework/

- push the sufraceflinger library to the device: adb push libsurfaceflinger_client.so /system/lib/

- reboot the device

Make sure you make a backup from the original files, I wont be able to fix any issues until next week, as I am away from my PC, still as my Folio is with me I'll check the boards to see if any issues have come up.

For developers/dexter:

the zip also includes the files I've modified for the fix, these are based on the NVIDIA tree. I hope that all modified locations shoukld be marked with // XXX:

Any easier way to do this ???

this is done on the Toshiba Folio itself or from a computer?

How do i "verify that your device is connected by running adb devices from a command line" ?

Is there any software required to do this ?

Sorry for asking so many questions, really a noob here and really tempted to get my folio fixed. I am running on dexter's foliomod 1.2, so far it works great, but the accelerometer doesnt seem to work correctly. I've tried some games like ibeer, the orientation is totally out. Hope that this can be fixed.

been busy with other tasks, so the orientation is working with some new games now or simply handled like we got a portrait tablet?
[Folio 100 General] weeds2000:
It should handle things like a portrait device. The changes in surfaceflinger library do just that. Within the Sensormanager class sensor values are rotated back 90 degrees. The fix for compass could be as simple as not rotating the sensor values if the sensor type matches the compass sensor.

The fix does not work with TNT mod because the framework jars are different (a plain Nvidia framework.jar does not work either) However it should be possible to add these changes to the tnt framework.
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
i tested it with the 3D Tilt game, it works (not perfect but close).

its worth including for sure..

3G USB modem support possible ?

The ZT180 has support for 3G USB modem (Huawei make).

Assuming there is no hardware support in that machine I would speculate that

what is needed is,

a) A driver for the kernel

b) Changes to the framwork (?)

c) An app to handle it (AT commands probably).

Anyone have input on this ?
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
find out if its part of kernel already, or how you can extract from their kernel, if its public.. then it might be possible to compile and include into our kernel, if its 2.2 based.

Before all

remove the previous install and

An option for ad_hoc added to the demand of dexter.

Used for future release.

If you enable lights you can close them using the widget but they

thats all it takes with my recovery image which comes with all mods (busybox is in recovery then.

it extract a folder in update.zip called "mbr" to /tmp folder.

of course the "mbr" folder should contain the "mbr.fix" file as previously mentioned in my foliomod thread.

then execute the busybox/dd command with parameters needed, and thats it.

Orientation Fix RC1

I would consider this a first release candidate for the Orientation fix, thx to all beta testers for the feedback.

fixes since BETA version:

- accelerometer fix for portrait orientation (my test game used the legacy API, therefore it was not working with Labyrinth Light)

- compass / orientation sensor fixed - Google Sky Maps and Compass Apps should work correct

Known Issues

- mouse pointer has wrong orientation

Tested with:

- Wave Blazer Lite

- Raging Thunder 2 Lite

- Abduction! 2

- Labyrinth Light

- Google Sky Maps

attached are two files:

- orientationfix.zip - this is the update file, copy to sdcard, rename to update.zip, and flash using recovery - this patch is for FolioMod 1.3

- source.zip - contains the modifications for this patch, this can be used to backport to 1.2, TNT or other devices.
