[KERNEL] T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Stock Kernel // UVKID

T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Stock Kernel // UVKID
Finally guys we have root access and with root access that brings goodies, this is one of those goodies.
Explanation
What we have here is a stock boot.img (imagine that Samsung changing things up again on us) pulled from a rooted (via recovery) T-Mobile SGH-T989 (Samsung Galaxy S II).
With this you can recover your phone using ODIN, in the case of a brick or just to return to a factory state.
Initramfs for Developers
I have extracted the boot.img and posted it up for all developers on my github.
Code:
https://github.com/bubby323/stock-initramfs-UVKID-galaxysII-tmo
Downloads
Also to restore you're phone I have a nice little tar file that will take care of the job for you that you can grab from here.

How to Flash
We are going to be using Odin in this explanation to flash the stock kernel to your phone.
Downloads
First you are going to want to start by downloading all the needed files onto your computer and then place them onto your Desktop.
Samsung Kies
Odin3-v1.85.zip
SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar
Process
Once you have everything downloaded and on your desktop, you are going to want to first install kies.
After this is done you should restart your computer for proper driver installation.
Next, extract Odin to a new folder on your Desktop. Leave the tar in the form it is.
Now, open up Odin by double clicking the .exe in the folder you extracted it to.
The most important step is now, you need to put your device into Download/ODIN mode so your computer will recognize it and be able to flash to it. To do this simply turn your phone off completely (or pull the battery). Then you are going to want to use the following button combination to force your device into download mode:
Hold the volume up/down and power button all at the same time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now ODIN should have recognized your device ( it may take a while for the drivers to complete installation so don't panic the first time).
Lastly, we want to click on the PDA button and then search for the SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar we download earlier and placed on the Desktop.
If all of the above has taken place you are free to hit the Start button.
Done!
If all has gone well at this point the flash should be proven successful and your phone should reboot like normal.
If so, please feel pressured to give yourself a pat on the back, that was tough!

Is this method better then slayher?? Method?

You are A ok man! Nothing has done wrong for you so you are in the clear you only need this kernel if you need to get back to stock.

This is not a method for obtaining root. It's reference material, and also a way to return yourself to stock if you flash a hosed kernel.
If you already have a stock kernel, I am 90% certain that this will do absolutely nothing.
But having a "return to stock kernel" path AND a fresh initramfs are major milestones for development.
You're not at risk, you should be perfectly fine using slayher's method, but if you screw up, this will be a component of your path back to a working phone. But it's only useful if you screw up, you're a kernel developer who wants a clean initramfs for reference, or need to return your phone back to 100% stock. However, if you're in one of those three categories, this is a critical milestone.

This will put stock recovery back on also right?

[Q] Files from a ROM around?
I've asked this before and I should probably shut it, but if anyone has files from a ROM that works with ODIN or a ZIP file (CWM compat or not), root or unrooted (doesn't matter), or a NANDROID backup, could you let me know?
I got stock kernel up, CWM recov, but broke my actual OS- since it broke, I done flashed /data /emmc /system to empty out my stomach. I really just need everything from / (minus your personal data, of course) - can get it to work with a recovery by myself (and can post that up if I do).
Thanks in advance, bruvs.

[Q] Bricked Samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch

HELP!!! My brother heard me talking about rooting my phone and installing cool ROM’s so he gave it a shot.. He has a Samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch, he loaded some ICS rom that does not have WiFi working, it also does not have USB working? He also didn’t load any recovery making it hard to bring it back to stock.
So I have a Samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch with some weird ICS rom, the Wifi does not work, no SDCard access, it has NO USB support.. it does have Bluetooth working so I have been able to move files to it but the rom he installed is not rooted and I can’t install a recovery app…
I can boot into download mode but with no USB support oden will not see the phone 
Any advice on how to root the phone or get a recovery app installed from the phone?
I can boot into the default recovery and I have the option to “Apply Update.zip from external storage” but the phone will not see an SD card, I also have an option to “apply update.zip from cache” then I see a lost+fount and recovery directory but I don’t know how to get my update.zip to this folder?

You can try downloading one of agat's ics kernels and flashing it through mobile Odin. You don't need USB for that. If that works then download a rom from xda not some random one you found on the internet, put it in the internal storage and flash from agat's recovery. May not work can't say 100%

Yeah, that's what confuses me. USB support in Odin Download mode of the phone, which I thought was driven by Kernel, not rom, leaves me to wonder if he flashed the international kernel.
Or I thought..
But it's odd you get the rom to boot and all of that is broke..

I wonder if you can get to the playstore and download supersu, if that wouldn't be a root method? Total shot in the dark since I haven't followed Chainfires SU thread that close. :edit: Doesn't look like it would work. :/

I for sure can not get access to the play store i can download APK files and move them to this phone via bluetooth but with out root access supersu will not work..

Hmm. So the only options in recovery is externel SD and cache? You may be sol. You can try downloading agats kernel in
Zip format and putting in the internal storage and pray it works. Unless one of the e4gt gurus knows another way

Unless you can push recoveries through the bootloader as an img like HTC phones but with recoveries tied to the kernel I doubt it unless its possible to unpack the kernel and just pull the recovery. But that's far beyond me.

Agat is a developer here for the e4gt. You can find his kernels in the kernel repository thread in the Android development sub forum

[Q] [HELP] I bricked my Glide

First of all, to make it totally clear how noob Im at this... I dont even know if this post goes in this section, so feel free to move it wherever fits best.
Second, excuse my english, its not my first language so ill try my best to explain what I did
Last but not least, thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this post and tries to help me.
So, I finally felt courageous enough to try a non-stock ROM.
The first thing I did was search for a rooting guide for the Glide on the forums. And I found one that seemed pretty straight forward. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082). I downloaded Odin, the CarrierIQ free kernel, started the phone on download mode, started Odin, PDA the kernel file... and when the phne rebooted it got stuck on the samsung sign.
I think my problem is that the guide was old and for GB devices. I was running the stock ICS.
After that, I downloaded from samfirmware the ICS file (is it the kernel or the rom? <-yes, thats how of a noob i am). Tried to use odin with it, but it gets stuck after a couple of mins.
After searching for a while, I found on another forum that it says that I need to downgrade back to GB, and said to install CWM Recovery (I installed it -v5.0.2.7-). And now im downloading the inception ROM (the same post on that forum said to downgrade using that ROM). Since the download is really slow, Im writing here to see if someone knows what happened and how to fix it.
Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I downloaded the Stock Kernel but cant seem to install it. Im using CWM and trying to install from SDCard, but it only shows me the internal memory from the phone, not my SD. I already formatted it in FAT32 format. Same results.
Can I do this via Odin? Any idea why my SD isnt showing?

Not sure about cwmr 5 but in ver 6 (touch) you can mount the internal memory, use your usb cable and transfer the zip to the phone with your pc. UN-mount and disconnect the cable and then you should be able to find the file to flash!

Do you have a link for it? The dropbox one I found isnt working... dont know if the CWM is specific for each device, i found others on google, but since they are on another devices forums, I dont know if it will work with my glide....
Thanks for the help....

The other thing you can do is download the leaked ics that it's a Odin one click file that will flash the kernel and boot loader, should get your phone booted back into stock ics where you can get a fresh start. I'd recommend going to Thegreatergood's LiteRom ver 4 or 5 afterwords. At least until Dman gets cm10 going!

Also, can you point me into the Odin compatible ROM... I downloaded the LiteRom and Kernel, but both are zips, and cant use them with Odin.

ok here is the CWMR v6 its in a zip file. just unzip to your desktop, the tar.md5 file is useable in the pda mode for odin. just follow the guide listed in the CWMR 6 thread.

I would also suggest making a backup if the /efs folder on your phone. that folder contains all the imei information that identifies you device to the networks. there is a thread in another forum that uses a tool to easily make a backup and gives the ability to restore! I have never had to use it to restore, but there have been reports on rare occasions where others have lost that information and the imei numbers turned to all "0's" I'm also not sure that you can use the tool until the phone is booted up. here is a link to that thread...

that's great, you might consider making a nand backup using the recovery and also once rooted, use titanium backup!

Well Im finally using the literom and its great. Cwm6 didnt read my sd card, but it allowed me to mount my phone as a drive on my pc, so i made a folder and copied the zips there, and installed from there.
I will try the backup thing later. Im so glad to have the keyboard backlight back!
I was really frustrated yesterday. I have a lot of experience with computers, but not that much with android phones. It was quite an experience.
Thanks again.

I am unfortunately stuck in the same position at the moment. I stupidly followed the root guide thinking it'd work for ICS and was horribly wrong.
My phone is now also stuck at the Samsung logo and is driving me crazy. Can you give me some instructions on what you did to restore back to GB? Thanks in advance.

I do not know about smoothness or battery but after updating, Bluebox Security Scanner shows I am patched for both the 8219321 and the 9695860 bugs. I cannot remember which one it was but before the update I was only patched for one. Root also survived.

Just curious how the update isnt breaking root. It is breaking mine, just on stock with UCAMA4 rooted fine, grabs the update and installs and *poof*, no root

OK, maybe I'm just really really stupid (probably HAHA) but every time I've tried to DL this and the thing reboots, it reboots into TWRP, and there I'm stuck - would have thought it would have tried to install itself outside of TWRP recovery, or am I really missing some point here?

OTA update requires stock recovery to install.

I did a recovery install via Kies to get my Note 2 back to stock which removed root. I then made my phone download software updates which now has it at 4.1.2 with Baseband Version I317UCAMH3. I changed the day numerous times and tried Software Updates again but it says I am now at the most current version so I then rooted the phone again! Mine still has the ripple lockscreen as well. I'm not sure why yours disappeared!

+1 There are a number of folks posting they took the MH3 OTA update... what is being asked here is if one of you could kindly post the OTA update file (i.e., on dropbox, then share the dropbox link). In the past, ATT OTAs were stored in " /cache/fota" folder. There are folks here on XDA who can extract the kernel... extract the modem... etc from that OTA and repackage in flashable zips for the rest of the community to try (those who either cannot get the MH3 OTA to download/install... or for those who do not want to flash back to stock in order to take the MH3 OTA). Can someone who has updated to MH3 take a look (via your favorite file explorer) and see if they still have the MH3 update in /cache/fota folder? Thanks.

I just set up the fingerprint lock screen, and it works just fine. I do not know have any other fingerprint related applications.

Cool, thanks for testing. Thats just what I read from other S6 threads floating around, that it would break Samsung Pay probably other apps that use security features like the fingerprint. I havent had a chance to test yet since Im not ready to root.

Hai guise

Wow 1st rom so fast, thanks NunHugger

Thanks for this! I had been having some serious issues trying to deodex things myself.

Shouldn't take that long. Maybe wipe and retry? I downloaded and tested this morning and she worked fine. Let me test again.

yea. i tried 3 times. no luck. wiped everything. maybe it was a bad download? but that doesn;t make sense because it flashed fine no errors in twrp.

Just downloaded a fresh copy. Wiped, installed, and it booted fine.
...did however have a Google Maps fc. Anyone who flashed have this issue?
Edit. Updating maps cures the fc. But...will add updated maps to zip tomorrow to see if it fixes the issue on boot.

I also had the maps FC but update solved it. I did have a weird issue were google play games would just sit there trying to update not allowing any other apps to update. Couldn't stop it or install any other apps while that was going on. Cleared data on playstore fixed it. Facebook is seriously bonked atm... really slow scroll/loading. Not sure if that's related though.

Yeah. I was noticing Facebook as well. Going to look into that.

How does this differ from the rom that originally comes with the phone plus the update to OCF? Whats the benefit of flashing this? I have a rooted phone with the latest TWRP recovery. Thanks

No difference really. ..other than it's been deodexed...which needs to be done to, as mentioned above, mod and theme. If you are already stock rooted, there is no benefit flashing this.

I am going to whip up an odex version, which I think will fair better. Going to do some research on this issue.

Nope...but you could remove any bloat you don't want from the zip. I was creating this as a base for a custom rom i will be working on. Wanted to leave this stock so if others wanted to use it for modding they could remove/keep what they wanted.

I have a question for you NunHugger... did you leave any files odexed when you created this? I deodexed it myself as well but had issues with Bluetooth, Nfc, playstore and most of the sprint/samsung apks. Mine booted but FC's on above mentioned.
