[TOOL](OneClick)Updated 7-8-13 ATT ROOT RECOVERY ODIN LOKIFYED - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development

UPDATED 7-8-13
WHAT THIS TOOL DOES:
1.ROOTS YOUR GALAXY S4 (motochopper exploit created by djrbliss)
2. PREPS FOR RECOVERY
3. INSTALLS CWM OUDHS 1.0.3.4 (7/8) RECOVERY(credit to shabbypenguin)
4. INSTALLS TWRP 2.6.0.0 (credit to dees_troy)
5. Flash phone back to stock using odin
(Full Version Only)
#FOR AT&T I337 ONLY WARNING MADE#
Heres a pretty amateur video I threw together:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlK3r81kQPw&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Ive updated this to a 3 way all in one tool. Tool can root device (using motochopper by djrbliss) and install either cwm or twrp. Great tool for all those just getting started. Both CWM OUDHS 1.0.3.5 and TWRP 2.5.0.2 are auto loki. They will apply loki patch to all compatible roms and kernels flashed. You can also flash back to stock via Odin
##EDIT I HAVE RECEIVED VERIFICATION THAT TWRP WILL NOT AUTO PATCH. THIS CAME FROM DEES_TROY HIMSELF. IF YOU USE TWRP BE SURE TO FLASH A LOKI KERNEL AFTER ANY NON LOKI ROM FLASH##
A huge thanks to djrbliss for his genius
And huge thanks to dees_troy and shabbypenguin for the recoveries
Also thanks to mostyle for the script help
Instructions:
1. Download 3way tool zip
2. Unzip on desktop and open tool.
3. Connect I337 via usb with usb
debugging enabled.
4. Click Run_Me.bat select number for option you desire and enjoy!
Use this tool at your own risk. I am not responsible for any level of destruction to your phone blah blah blah

O.K
I like to try it :fingers-crossed:

I installed the OUDHS Recovery yesterday and now either one of these will install.I'd love to have Loki'd TWRP. My phone has the same UCUAMDL

If you use either of these please let me know if it works for you.

Respond to sholsten
You mean Neither will work,
It didn't work on mine.

Ill recheck script when I get home. Worked on test devices prior to posting. Please post error messages here. ^^^^ already have yours

Did uninstall the recovery.sh file?

Fixed
On the line that issues the remount command there occurs 'Permission denied.'
In your batch file change line 25:
adb remount
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so that it reads:
adb shell su -c "mount -o rw,remount /system"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Of course this assumes you are rooted..
EDIT:
Still getting an error 'Failed to open aboot for reading'
I'm investigating.. Hang on.

Will change and repost in a few

You could just install goomanger and install twrp thats been lokified directly from your rooted s4

adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Press any key to continue

Here's the fixed script..
Just had to su -c all of your commands...
db kill-server
adb start-server
adb shell su -c "mount -o rw,remount /system"
adb wait-for-device
adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
adb push openrecovery.lok /data/local/tmp
ECHO.
ECHO Doing the hard stuff.............
ECHO.
adb shell su -c "mount -o rw,remount /system"

Make sure to thank mostyle for the script assist. Thanks bro

Tested both on my 32GB S4. Both working with no issues at all. Appreciate the work that went into this.

So if I understand this will allow you to flash a Rom that has not been Loki'd and it will loki it and allow it to boot with either TWRP or CWM?

[Recovery][CWM][ATT-ONLY!] Flashable CWM recovery!

Hello everyone!
Here's another release thread for y'all!
What is this?
This is a flashable ClockworkMod recovery for the Optimus G Pro.
Special thanks to @djrbliss
You can safely flash this to your phone's recovery and enjoy modding bliss!​
How do I use this, and where do I get it?
Good question!
There are two ways to use the files provided here.
To Flash to Recovery:
Download this file to somewhere on your computer https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/raw/master/bin/loki_flash
Download this file http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg_pro/gkatt/recovery/e98010g/gkatt-cwm-e98010g.lok
Run the following:
Code:
adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
adb push gkatt-cwm-e98010g.lok /data/local/tmp
abd shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 loki_flash
./loki_flash recovery gkatt-cwm-e98010g.lok
To boot
Download this file: http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg_pro/gkatt/recovery/e98010g/gkatt-cwm-e98010g.img
Use fastboot boot to boot it
DO NOT FLASH THE .IMG FILE TO YOUR PHONE. It is only meant for fastboot booting.​
Where can I find the source you used to build this?
All on my github!
http://github.com/thecubed/
Or, follow my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43514195​
What can I do with this?
Right now, the possibilities are unlimited. Once a security-lax boot.img is released, we can flash that through recovery and let the modding commence.
Please remember though, modding /system with the stock boot.img will result in a security error!​
What works, and what doesnt?
I have so far tested making backup images, however I haven't tested restoring them.
I have also not tested external SD cards, since I don't have one with me at work.​
Can you show me a video?
Why yes I can!
As usual, please pardon the crappy camera work.​
I <3 you so much, how do I show my love?
You are so kind
I most definitely do not expect donations of any kind, however they are appreciated a lot.
I purchased this phone off-contract just to get it unlocked, if you are a kind soul and would like to send me a token of your appreciation I would love you forever.
XDA has a neat "Donate to me" button that should be on the left side of this page under my name. Donations go to purchasing new hardware to work on and other neat stuff, so they're always appreciated.​
Special Thanks!

Yes you can, just do the following:

adb shell
su
dd if=/data/local/tmp/gkatt-cwm-e98010g.lok of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
Getting into recovery is as simple as "adb reboot recovery" or holding the proper volume keys.
I just recommend using Dan's excellent loki_flash utility since it checks to make sure you have the right bootloader in place already.
fastboot info
Would be nice to have more info on how to use fastboot with the .img file. I tried all I know with no results. Thanks!

Not sure what you're asking. To flash any .img file without any modifications requires our bootloader to be unlocked. What's going on here is everything needs to be "Loki'ed" so our phones are able to flash unsigned code through a custom recovery, bypassing our locked bootloader.
Fastboot is a way of testing unsigned code without having to necessarily flash it to any partitions.
Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm definitely not a developer. I just read a lot lol

If I have the old ClockworkMod, can I still do this or do I have to get rid of it somehow?
Are there any special precautions someone should take if they have this recovery already flashed to our phones?
Flashing with the latest "loki_flash" from dan's repos is segfaulting here and I'm too lazy to run it in gdb. The recovery works just fine with dd after zeroing the recovery partition out. Thanks mucho :good:
Coming from the Note I'm not use to locked bootloader.
Should we all install this if our goal is to eventually flash custom roms?

One of the memcmp commands is segfaulting. Perhaps @djrbliss can have a look when he gets some free time.

It's just an extra step I like taking before flashing a partition with data that might be smaller than the original. And yes, that's pretty much what I typed.

another issue:
I am using loki_patch v1.5 to patch my custom build kernel
then I flash this Loki'ed kernel to my E988 (by CWM recovery) and it keep re-boot loop
(with the wording => Cause: Device Unlock, so boot success!!....) ==> it is the same Ok msg with boot to CWM recovery
which I believe if boot image LOKI'ed should be good
PS: I fixed this by re-flash the good boot image by CWM
Here is the output of the patching msg
[email protected]:/usr/android# ./loki_patch-linux-x86_64 boot aboot.img myboot.img myboot.lok
[+] loki_patch v1.5
[+] Detected target AT&T or HK LG Optimus G Pro build E98010g or E98810b
[+] Output file written to myboot.lok
[email protected]:/usr/android#
call me lazy, is there a zip file I could flash to do this from within the 2nd init recovery? :fingers-crossed:
I have never used adb before...

[Recovery][TWRP][ATT-ONLY!] Flashable TWRP recovery!

Hello everyone!
Here's another release thread for y'all!
What is this?
This is a flashable TWRP recovery for the Optimus G Pro.
Special thanks to @djrbliss
You can safely flash this to your phone's recovery and enjoy modding bliss!​
How do I use this, and where do I get it?
Good question!
There are two ways to use the files provided here.
To Flash to Recovery:
I've created an easy installer for all you Windows folks!
Download this: http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg_pro/gkatt/recovery/e98010g/easy-twrp-e98010g.zip
Extract it to somewhere on your computer.
Enable USB debugging on your phone, if you need the drivers I've included them in the "files/drivers" folder in the zip
Run the 'install.bat' script.
Check for any errors, if it was successful, you can 'adb reboot recovery' or use an app on your phone to get you into TWRP now!
Profit! (and realize that this was pretty easy!)
(thanks to hkfriends for pointing out the errors in my script!)

That's weird... I've been testing with that exact command and it's not doing it.
Can you possibly pull the kernel logs and pastebin them?
Do this while you're booted in recovery:
Code:
adb shell
dmesg > /sdcard/twrp_kmsg.txt
[press ctrl-c after a few seconds]
adb pull /sdcard/twrp_kmsg.txt
Thanks!

Can you check to ensure that you have the ADB driver installed for your system? It is possible that your desktop hasn't installed the ADB interface while the phone is in recovery mode.
Start -> devmgmt.msc [enter]
Look to see if you have any unknown devices or "Android Phone" entries with no driver installed. That should do the trick.

Here's an interesting question... if you flash CWM instead, and press the softkeys at the bottom of the phone (the normal back and menu buttons) does anything happen? It looks like your touchscreen is being brought up successfully (despite the "[ 8.270257 / 03-05 11:00:29.766] Reflash Completed. Please reboot." line)
If softkeys work in CWM, then it means that something in TWRP isn't registering your touchscreen right. I'll look into that, should be fairly straightforward.
If softkeys don't work in CWM... that means something more strange. That means my kernel (or the boot commands I'm using) aren't compatible with your phone... which is indeed possible, since there are many revisions of each phone. (I hope this isn't the case!)

Hello Everyone! I would like to make a guide for Rooting our Sony Xperia Z1s for T-mobile, I tried this with Android 4.3 Firmware 14.2.C.0.159.
This is my first Post so if i make a mistake please let me Know.
Thanks to Jcase and his pwn file to make this root Posible.
This is just the way how i did it and worked for me.
I AM NOT RESPOSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES, THIS IS JUST A GUIDE FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE JCASE EXPLOID.
Requirements:
Well, first of all you have to make sure that your computer have the correct adb drivers installed and you can go into it.
Debugging mode On. (Developer options, USB Debugging Checked)
Download the JCASE pwn (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53407127&postcount=1004)
Download the Adb Drivers Updated (http://www.mediafire.com/download/41lx6p71xxit1ax/ADB+Drivers_Updated.zip) Thanks to Droidextra.org, UJJWAL KUMAR.
Process:
1- With the two zip files downloaded you will unzip it in the Local Disk (C), Create a folder with a name like "Root Tool" And unzip the files there, just like these: Check attached picture.
2- Press Shift on the keyboard and right click and then "open a Command Prompt here"
3- Check if your Sony Xperia Z1s its working well in the adb typing: adb devices. If it says failed, you have to check your adb drivers, if not, you're going good.
4- So if all its going well, just type this on command prompt (Thanks JCASE)
adb push pwn /data/local/tmp/pwn
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/pwn
adb shell /data/local/tmp/pwn
5- wait for the adb to finish.
6- Unplug you're phone and restart it.
7- Install Super Su apk (Can download it from Play Store or latest Apk)
8- Open SuperSu and update binarys with Normal Mode
Now you must be Root, if SuperSu can't update Binarys try again from 2.
If you are not able to Write to system try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...57358331140130
If this works for you please say thanks to Jcase who made this can be possible.

Sorry about that, SuperSu its giving to you this error because the rooting it's not done, please check that your phone its adb recognizable with "adb devices" in CMD, Remember to Unistall Super Su if you get the error and Reboot in order to try again.

Okay so after working at this for a couple of hours I finally got it to work. For some reason, I wasn't able to uninstall SuperSu because it had been installed as a system app and I could only disable it, or uninstall updates from it. After trying over and over, I found this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53442704&postcount=1075&nocache=1&z=9157358331140130
Here, they include the exact same method in this thread, with one extra step; creating a boot script to maintain root/system permissions. Im not exactly sure how it works, but i followed the instructions provided by the links and then, after rebooting, was able to install binaries, and achieve full root (FINALLY!!) So if anybody has the same problem I did, try this out

Nice! I'm happy To heard that! JCase said in his post that some people will have this problem to write to system, but in my case i was able to, now we have to find a working recovery in order to have a custom rom or something like that, Some people say that xzdualrecovery works for z1s, but it is in beta version, if you find something please let us know.

Hey Thanks for Reply, that's the reason because i said de Final Acces, because we can acces to bootloader because branded phones can't have bootloader unlocked.:fingers-crossed:

Throw an "su" command in the shell before anything else. It will only work if you're rooted.
I don't really get it how to connect via shell to my watch. Is it the same as installing apk's over adb bluetooth debugging bridge?
Could you provide further instructions how to install the update manually?
Thanks!

Worked (almost) perfect! Except, the "mv" command caused it to error out with "Invalid Arguement:Cross-Device Link" (Due to the implementation of blocked cross device linking with the mv command, bypassable by just cp'ing) Just replaced it with "cp" and the problem was solved.
Though this has already been said, the 4.4w1 insecure boot.img no longer roots 5.0.1. Probably due to incompatibilliuies, I'll work up a new rooted boot.img this weekend. Sadly looks like its going to require flashing the boot.img, not just booting it.
How do you go on a shell on your watch?
You have to have the bootloader unlocked and rooted hooked up via Modded USB cable. Then use the super tool script iin the dev section to install drivers for fastboot. Then back out to that folder make sure you not clicked on anything right click anywhere I think but I right click on the fastboot file while holding the SHIFT key and open in command window the type adb devices to make sure you hooked up right and you have accepted it on your phone Witch you must click accept the adb on your phone to accept the computer access. Once you know your hooked up right type adb shell and boom there you go.
having some trouble.
I've got shell, and then su, i've got a prompt with #
Tried the mv command, and like that other guy, got a cross link error. So i tried cp instead of mv, and now get no such file or directory...
I should mention I'm doing this from adb on Windows. Am I missing something??

Try this its what worked for me
coming from KNX01S, but I keep running into "Status 7" with the stock recovery and "Error executing updater script" with TWRP. Anybody have any better luck flashing this?

latest update: https://mega.co.nz/#!dNBnyT7Q!qtPkmgOV-jrajJAAKDLE6cQWVHyDGi3OsEwmTq5jfOU LWX48T-from-LWX48P follow OP's instructions but change teh file names

[TWRP][BL LOCKED][TEST][RootNeed] Twrp for Lg g4 with the BL locked, untested

I whipped up something quick based of stuff I used to do with the Droid X and what the Sony SP guys did.
This is twrp with a locked bootloader, the recovery partition is untouched, you can still get into that recovery. When the phone is booting, a green light will come on, hit volume up and then phone should vibrate within 3 seconds. If you hit the volume up then it should start loading twrp, otherwise it should continue with booting.
This is untested and I have a feeling the system will either not boot recovery, or not boot the main system.
This needs root.
This installs busybox, i know i should be using toybox
Someone please test, just extract the zip to your computer, plug in your phone, and run the appropriate file.
Do not test, I've tested it and I need to make changes
Sorry I was busy creating a new root method, got it working, almost done

Yup, in the future I might be able to make a marshmallow zip that'll let you run marshmallow with root and twrp. For that I need to relook into kernel modules because the kernel would have to be reloaded.

Hopefully this will allow for us to write the drivers that would allow us to unlock the band's that are locked. If this allows us to write drivers.
So, just extract and run install.bat? On normal mtp mount?

This is twrp with a locked bootloader, the recovery partition is untouched, you can still get into that recovery. When the phone is booting, a green light will come on, hit volume up and then phone should vibrate within 3 seconds. If you hit the volume up then it should start loading twrp, otherwise it should continue with booting.
This is untested and I have a feeling the system will either not boot recovery, or not boot the main system.
This needs root.
This installs busybox, i know i should be using toybox
Someone please test, just extract the zip to your computer, plug in your phone, and run the appropriate file.

does it work with (vs986) version model
I'm interested to see if this works for the Canadian model (H812). Will keep watching this thread so good luck!
So the hope here is that we could downgrade to L, root, and then run this to get TWRP and install custom roms all without touching the recovery partition?
Has anyone had a chance to test this? I have a VS986 but it's the only phone I have with me right now so I'm hesitant to try myself

Yeah it should, in fact it may work on yours but not the Verizon because I used the twrp from the international. Easy fix tho if that's the caw

Hopefully this will allow for us to write the drivers that would allow us to unlock the band's that are locked. If this allows us to write drivers.

No that probably won't be as the drivers are probably locked at bootloader level not system
Wait. I'm confused.

I ran this with a Verizon G4 and it doesn't appear to work. I don't get a green light when I boot up nor does pressing the Vol Up button at any point during boot up appear to have any affect. Perhaps I'm missing something in order to get into TWRP but from what I can tell it does not work.
One other note, the batch file for the windows installation needs to be edited: In this section PUSH needs to be changed to INSTALL. Not sure it matters if it doesn't work overall but wanted to let the you know.
USH <------- Should be INSTALL
 @ECHO Let's go!

It should not be install it should be push.
Did you use install or push
Does your phone still boot?
I had to guess the led paths so they may be wrong
It made a log, I'll send you the path of it on your phone so you can send it to me

I used install, otherwise when I tried to install it, Option 1, the CMD window just closed. When I changed it to Install it ran and showed TWRP Successfully installed.
Yes it still boots.
Let me know the path, I'll send the log file.
