[TOOL][DISCONTINUED]x :: DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE / DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE :: x - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

*WARNING! I Am Not Responsible For Anything That Happens To Your Device*​​
** PLEASE BE AWARE! THIS SCRIPT IS FOR "T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II" WILL ALSO WORK ON "AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket" ONLY! IF YOU FLASH THIS ON ANY OTHER DEVICE YOU MIGHT HAVE A VERY EXPENSIVE PAPER WEIGHT! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! PLEASE CONTACT ME FIRST IF ANY OTHER QUESTIONS **​
:: DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE ::​
:: DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE ::
..A DARKSIDE DEVELOPMENT..​
This is a small script i threw together a while back. I have incorporated in many of my ROMS, usually runs with a installation flag '-wipe'. The script does exactly as the title explains. It is SUPER.WIPE that does the most thorough wipe possible. This exceeds anything that CWM is capable of from the menu options. This will format and erase EVERYTHING on your /system, /data, /cache partions with EXT4 file system. It WILL NOT wipe SD CARD or EMMC... After it is complete with format and earse, it will align all disks partitions properly. This is a great tool to flash right before installing any new ROM on your device. No need to worry if you have wiped properly. Let the script do it for you! ENJOY! ​
Instructions on using DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE:
* WILL NOT WIPE SD CARD OR EMMC *
IMMEDIATELY BEFORE FLASHING ROM OF YOU CHOICE, DO THE FOLLOWING...
1. Place on ROOT of your SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery Mode
3. Do a NAND BACKUP!!!
4. Flash DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE
5. Stay inside recovery
6. Flash desired ROM.
7. After flashing is complete, Reboot...
8. Done!

"so that is the reason for the darkside.cache.wipe... because you cant wipe the cache in recovery... recovery as in CWM right? except through script like in your Darkside.cache.wipe?" (Quote from @Rushing)
ONLY USE THIS IF YOU NEED TO WIPE CACHE'S OR FIX PERMISSIONS IN CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY. THIS IS TO BE FLASHED IN RECOVERY! This replaces the need for using the broken built in CWM recovery functions. The DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE script will wipe both the /cache partition and the dalvik cache. After its has completed the wipe, it will then fix permissions (the correct way). This should hopefully fix that damn ICS reboot hang issue once and for all. ​
** PLEASE respect my work and ask my permission before posting mirrors or using any parts **​
you underestimate the power of the DARKSIDE

not sure why yet???

Thanks from this. I've been waiting for something like this as a seperate flashable. comes in handy when you do a lot of testing.

This is awesome, I saw this in some of your ROMs and wished I could use it with other ROMs. My wish was granted. Thank you!

Thanks for this! One question though: What is the benefit of formatting to ext4, compared to what it is formatted as by default?

Hi,
Seems like a great tool. I have a suggestion. When posting such tools that aren't device-specific and work on all (or a majority of) Android devices, please consider posting them in the appropriate Android Development and Hacking forums (should be either Android Software and Hacking General or Android Software Development in this case), rather than device-specific forums. Once posted there, you can then make a post here as well with a brief description of the tool and provide the link to the main post in the appropriate section.
This way, the tool will get more exposure, plus it'll make things a little less confusing for the new users who might think the tool is specific only to that device in question.
Well, that's my two cents. Keep up the great work! =)

Different devices have different partition mappings so one tool will NOT work for all devices .......... sorry but you are incorrect in telling him to post in a general forum.
IE
Mmcblk2 might be /boot on one device, or /recovery on another and /system on yet another.
Wiping a recovery partition accidently could cause bricks ....
PS
Awesome tool bro. Ill use it for sure

[REQ] A Good Guide To Sztupy's Universal Lagfix. Sztupy Chips In Here.

Hi,
I for one is an eternal seeker of a lagfree SGS. But, being Sztupy, he can only spew out TECH. Most people either misunderstand, misinterpret or misdo things that he says & get into trouble.
My request here. Can a dev put things into perspective & give out a simple detailed guide for everyone? It needs to be lucid & comprehensive, & to be understood by both a layman as well as Einstein.
Thanks to all of you for the good work. I now feel proud I chose SGS over X10, my daughter gave me 10 seconds to choose.

A guide for a kernel that is meant to be for people to make experimenting easy... kinda strange
Of course there might be a guide which tells you how to achieve the most stable config with ultk, but I'd rather flash voodoo in that case as it's much more stable. (but it's not really meant for people who want to experiment with different hacks and tweaks).
Btw. some cookers already use ultk in their config, and provide some guide on which option to choose (usually they tell you use no-rfs advanced ext4). They also have the added benefit that using the same rom there are less problems and more people can actually try to guess what went wrong (as all of the people on that rom topic are actually using more or less the same config).
The ultk, because it's just a kernel can be flashed to a lot of different roms, and it's possible some of it bugs are there because it's in some way or another incompatible with that particular rom.
Although a simple guide would be:
- Reboot to download mode (by holding voldown+home+power while switching on)
- Flash a complete JPM or JP6 based ROM, using Odin (re-partition ticked, use the 512 pit, and use a package that contains all images (dbdata,cache,system), although dbdata might be optional)
- After flashing reboot to download mode.
- Flash the kernel image over on that rom, using Odin (re-partition is not ticked, only the image is set as the PDA part)
- After flashing reboot to recovery mode (by holding volup+home+power while switching on)
- In the recovery menu chose Advanced ULK features->Lagfix options->No -RFS Advanced (a=e4)
- Press "reboot to recovery"
- After reboot chose not to create a backup, nor a restore
- After it boots up in recovery again press reboot again.
- You'll have a clear system with ext4 on all data partitions
Comeon... he is as human as me & you. I meant his WORK.

Yep, it's actually preferred to use that rom as a base.
Ok, I'll try and flash it. Sztupy, your ROM is the only Froyo ROM I'm using. Thank You GREAT JOB!!!!
Pls correct me if I am wrong (still learning):
'Ext4 + ext2' means loop means buffer does not fsync ? It this safe? Not always 100% sure everything if saved?
Bind means using a faster but smaller partition ? Safe except for 'running out of space' problems ?
Correct? or?
I still need to test read speeds: How fast is RFS reads compared to EXT4 reading speed? I still believe an ALL EXT4 would be the best lag-fix!
Can /efs be made EXT4? I know /SYSTEM can. I need 48 hours in a day!
Thanks

more detail please, like tweaks and kernel, what miui kitchen(nothing fancy?) have you added something besides what is in the kitchen(mustard, ketchup?)
What is in the ROM? MIUI has come a long way though. They need to work on their camera app still.
Hey, let us see some screenshots. 'Your needs' isn't enough as details. I am looking forward to it because you might have really combined some good combos which might be worthy enough of a additional download.
sorry for the leak of info...it's my first rom. i hope i can link a video with my rom running soon in post #2

No offense intended, but if you cooked a ROM using the MIUI Kitchen then the only apparent effort on your part was making a few selections using spasms website (MIUI Kitchen) and downloading a zip.
Does sharing the above mentioned ZIP file make it eligible for the Development section? It's not your creation right?
Wouldn't we rather cook our own ROM considering that we all can? Just saying you know.
Do correct me if any thing I said is incorrect. Or perhaps, just out of line.
If we all begin to post the roms that we cook using the MIUI kitchen, then development section would be a mess. With all my respect, I think this doesn´t deserve a thread in this section.
sorry for my behavior. i supposed this could be a nice choice for someone else tahen me. if admin think this is spam close che thread. what skiddhard said is correct. i don't think i'm a developer. just trying to share something i thought was good.

Don't worry fella. I wasn't out looking for a war of words either. I was honestly confused as to the purpose of this thread in the Dev section.
As a side note, if you have been around on this thread for a long time, you might recall the Doc's kitchen. And I don't mean the current iteration. I am referring to the original Kitchen where the Dev section had about 10 - 15 odd ROM's. Many Dev's built their ROM's around the ones generated off that online kitchen. But they always added their bit to make the ROM stand out of the crowd. Some made it better. Some skinned. Some added new features.
If you have a development background, you might consider doing the same.
i would like to have the knowledge to bouild my own rom. i don't know either where to start

Here is the beta 3 to 4 update.zip I talked about earlier.
All credit goes to Feb and the other awesome devs. I just created an update.zip that seems to work for me. If you break your phone using this, it's not my fault. I have only tested it quickly.
creamed_glacier_beta_3to4_wifi_fixes_apns_extras.zip (34.95 MB)
The above patch includes a bundle of updates from feb's beta 4.0, an APN list, exta live wall papers, an add blocking hosts file and a few other things.
Calendar sync, market, wifi, talk, and headphones all worked for me.
How to install:
---------------
- Reboot into Recovery
- FULL WIPE (factory reset,delvik,system) [i had issues when i didn't full wipe]
- Install Feb's creamed glacier beta 3.0
- Install TDJ's v13 beta ICS kernal
- Install this zip
- Reboot
- On first boot select "Setup Wizard"
Note: If the APNs don't load go into the APN settings, hit the menu button, and select "restore defaults"
As I said if you break your phone don't come crying to me, no warranty!
If this helped hit the "Thanks" button

If you want to fix it. You can:
1. grab the apk from the beta 4 zip
2. push it to /system/app
3. change the perms to match the others.
4. reboot.
That is what I did and it seems to work.

Nice, was waiting to see if we got a CM9 then was going to start a new F.A.Q. but yours will do

[Q] How do you make flashable zips?

I've looked around and can't seem to find a proper guide of how to make flashables I know newer cwm's use an amend script as opposed to the older edify what ever that may mean xD .... anyways I want to start creating my own shiz I don't want to give details but I think it might be kind of special and could interest some nerds anyways if someone can point me in the direction of a proper guide/ tutorial I will much appreciate it.

Often it's as easy as gutting another flashable .zip that you know works, then replacing the directory structure and files with what you want to install. If you want a neater solution with more customization, adamdelozier found benzyniarz1's UpdateZipCreator utility, which provides much more customization possibilities. It currently has a bug that causes scripts to fail, thus causing the entire flashable .zip to fail, but I've let the developer know what's up so hopefully a fix will be out soon. If you want to learn about the bug and the workaround, see pages 5 and 6 and pay close attention to the "Error 6" and "EOL" related posts.
Customization kind of like what the script shows ex: after flashing rc it says your phone is now legendary?

Yes, you can create a custom script from scratch within the utility, and it has the most used commands available to drop into your script, along with a very brief description of syntax for each. Read the OP for the utility to get an idea of its range of features.

Yea I typed that knowing it was misuse n abuse. Sorry. I meant the link above I provided to this thread where the people were struggling to find out why it was broken and you explained the bug you linked to here. Jedi's always pop in, save, then boogie. Not choad chomping or anything but I also read your proposal for documentation formatting and lmmfao at your example.

Awesome. Not my personal cup of tea but I am sure someone somewhere is thinking you are the motts! Well done.

Most people aren't picky about their cwm zips, basicly it consists of the items you want to flash, the stuff to flash it with, and an updater-script and updater-binary. I usually just take someones updater-binary and write my script from scratch

Ah, now I understand, my young padawan. Awww, no choad chomping? But seriously, I'm glad I got a laugh out of you! Unfortunately, I'll have to clean parts of it up to get the Mods to sticky it.
Back on topic, the dev of UpdateZipCreator hit me back and said he'll release a fixed version of his utility soon.
UpdateZipCreator has been updated to use UNIX newline / end-of-line / EOL characters in the script generator / editor, which should eliminate "Error 6" when flashing .zips in CWM Recovery.

Edit nevermind took a look at. Any way to change what the binary script displays ie. What it shows in the script when flashing..." your phone is now legendary"

This has example scripts, but I don't remember it dynamically generating scripts based on what you install. You must customize the scripts yourself, to include mounting the partition you wish to install to, install package, and screen output. FYI, IIRC the screen is 48 fixed-width characters wide in CWM Recovery. That should help make pretty output screens!

Samsung Galaxy S3 Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script
WHAT UKC DOES​
The script cleans the left over files of a kernel, to prevent issues or compatibility problems when switching between kernels, kinda like Ccleaner for windows.
It does a cache wipe / dalvik cache wipe and a few other operations, basically it does the maintenance job for you, no need to manually do those tasks before flashing a new kernel.​

Operations performed:
Formatting cache partition
Wiping Dalvik-Cache
Deleting old kernel settings files
Cleaning up old Modules

Wiping Dalvik-Cache for Security Purpose
COMPATIBILITY​
ROMs:

Can you make a small correction in the first post?
It should be Galaxy S3 and Galaxy 3 because there is another phone called Galaxy 3 (GT-I5800)

Is the lack of download link to emphasise how useless this is?
Due to an inability to provide a download link - thread closed and moved to Themes and Apps. This is also not Development.
EDIT: Thread reopened since download link is now available

Hello guys,
here is the ultimate-kernel-cleaning-script for the sgs3.
The changelog is the same like sgs2 now but if you have kernel parameters from other kernels as sgs2, I would be glad when you post it here...

Really? REALLY?
I've just looked at it and it took me a minute to stop laughing long enough to post.
Ok people, here's the low down.
ui_print("Formatting Cache Partition");
delete_recursive("/cache");
Why?
ui_print("Wiping Dalvik Cache");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
What the christ? Why? What has dalvik got to do with kernels? PRECISELY NOTHING. Why are you making the boot time longer than it needs to be?
So far, we're doing things not related to kernels, that people can do themselves via recovery.
Code:
delete("/system/etc/init.d/S91voltctrl");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/S98bolt_siyah");
delete_recursive("/sbin/siyah");
delete_recursive("/data/.siyah");
delete_recursive("/system/.siyah");

There's a -lot- of stuff there more related to applications on the market rather than kernels. Why are you deleting them?
Especially hilarious is this:
Code:
delete_recursive("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq");
delete_recursive("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu/cpufreq");
delete("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings");
Why do you not understand that these files are generated at boot time? They're created based on the kernel running. In fact, deleting these files has no effect whatsoever because when you reboot out of recovery THEY ARE GONE ANYWAY, to be replaced by whatever kernel boots under a normal boot.
You clearly do not understand this. I could go even further into how utterly retarded this zip file's existence is, but to do so is a severe devaluation of my time because of just how hilariously a waste of time your "tool" or "kernel cleaner" is. You haven't the first clue of what you're doing so why are you encouraging people to download and use this crap, which is at worst a detriment to their system and themselves and at best does nothing of value at all?
I mean you don't even clear out old modules!
