Zipalign question

Hi all, this thread was for the G1, will this work for the Desire also?
To "install" this, just adb push the two files in the zip below onto your phone with:
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
adb push zipalign /system/bin
adb push zipalign_apks /system/sd/zipalign_apks.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/zipalign /system/sd/zipalign_apks.sh
adb shell mount -o remount,ro /system
Then anytime you want to run the script just do:
Code:
adb shell sh /system/sd/zipalign_apks.sh
Or in terminal:
Code:
su
sh /system/sd/zipalign_apks.sh

Fix Permitions from Terminal ;) (Help apps not to force close))

To install from CMD - Terminal
1. Download the fxps script. http://www.mediafire.com/?o525y4b4dewdvor
2. adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system
3. adb push fxps /system/bin/fxps
4. adb shell busybox chmod 755 /system/bin/fxps
5. adb shell reboot
To Run it
1. adb shell fxps
2 adb shell reboot
To install from Terminal Emulator
"Download the fxps script and move it in your SD Card" http://www.mediafire.com/?o525y4b4dewdvor
$ su
# adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl6 /system (Puts the system in R/W mode)
# cp /sdcard/fxps /system/bin/fxps (Copys the script from SD Card to bin directory)
# chmod 755 /system/bin/fxps (Gives root access to the script)
# reboot
To Run it open the Terminal Emulator and enter
$ su
# fxps (It will start... When it finish reboot)
# reboot
This Script is not mine i just find it and gine it to you in simple way
Thanks the Dev of this Script i hope to see it in Power Menu some day...

Great tutorial but AFAIK all available recoveries have this built in as an option dont they?

Am I the only one who thought that the system-partition should be mounted from /dev/block/mtdblock3 ?

i believe it should be mtdblock3 or you can boot into recovery and just adb shell mount /system

[ROOT ICS] The hard way && Digging for roots

For anyone that doesn't want to root the hard way crossix has come up with a double click root for Windows forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23052186&postcount=105
Update 2/26/12
/system can now be mounted writable see the bottom of this post.
So the old Honeycomb exploit has now been patched in ICS. But there was an exploit found in the newer ICS kernels. Written by saurik,: called mempodroid
There is an offset needed as an argument to the binary, for the a100 we'll use what has worked for the a200 as noted in sauriks github linked above.
The issue with this is mounting /system as writable. I'm not sure if it's something in ICS, but it appears to be write protected. As noted here and here we will loop mount the system partition.
The tools needed are:
1. mempodroid under Usage Instructions, download pre-compiled
2. busybox 1.20 snapshot 3-10-12
3. su the latest from androidsu.com, extract from system/bin
4. mount.txt script
After downloading and extracting place them all in a folder called tools.
This must be done with adb. Issue the following from cmd or a terminal:
Code:
$ adb shell mkdir /data/local/tools
$ adb push tools /data/local/tools ; adb shell
$ cd /data/local ; chmod 755 tools/*
$ cd tools ; ./mempodroid 0xd9f0 0xaf47 sh
If all went well you should be at a hash # prompt. This is temp root.
mount /system rw the new way:
Code:
# PATH=$PWD:$PATH
# sh mount.txt -o remount,rw /system
Copy su and busybox to /system
Code:
# ./busybox cp busybox /system/xbin; ./busybox cp su /system/xbin/
# chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
Install busybox
Code:
# cd /system/xbin
# for i in $(busybox --list); do ln -s busybox $i; done; sync
Copy the mount script
If busybox is updated this step must be run again
Code:
# cp /data/local/tools/mount.txt /system/bin/mount
# cp /data/local/tools/mount.txt /system/xbin/mount
Done your a100 should be rooted
the old way:
Now lets loop mount /system
Code:
[b]This is no longer needed[/b]
# ./busybox losetup -o $((512 * 51200)) /dev/block/loop7 /dev/block/mmcblk0
Code:
# ./busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
# mkdir loop ; mount -t ext4 /dev/block/loop7 loop
Copy su and busybox to the new mount point.
Code:
# ./busybox cp su loop/xbin/ ; ./busybox cp busybox loop/xbin/
# chmod 6755 loop/xbin/su ; sync
If it worked your a100 is fully rooted. Make sure to install SuperUser from the Market.
Either get busybox installer from the market, and install it to /data/local/tools/loop/xbin
Or:
Code:
# cd loop/xbin
# for i in $(busybox --list); do ln -s busybox $i; done; sync
The mount point won't survive a reboot so in order to write to /system again run:
Code:
# busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
# mount -t ext4 /dev/block/loop7 /data/local/tools/loop
[update 2/26/12]
To mount /system as writable do the following from adb. We'll just make a directory called /data/loop for easy access.
Code:
$ adb shell
$ su
# stop
[b]your screen will go black[/b]
# mkdir /data/loop
[b]skip this if the loop is already set up
# busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3[/b]
# mount -t ext4 /dev/block/loop7 /data/loop
# mount -o bind /data/loop /system
# start
You can write to /system with any app but /system can't be remounted ro then back to rw.
This can be added to /etc/install-recovery.sh to make it permanent
Code:
busybox losetup /dev/block/loop7 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
mount /dev/block/loop7 /data/loop
mount -o bind /data/loop /system
Thanks to crossix as the first to get temp root, and Icewyng for pointing out the exploit and helping with the magic number.

Ill be testing this when I get home, if it works Ill attempt to write a 1 command script to do it.

OK...
Testing this out and found there were a couple of bugs.
You didn't have a "loop" folder created so I made one in the "tools" folder.
and, when mounting, you need to specify -t ext4.
Here are the revised commands for # mount /dev/block/loop7 loop
mkdir loop;mount -t ext4 /dev/block/loop7 /data/local/tools/loop
I noticed that the files /data/local/tools/loop/xbin/su and /data/local/tools/loop/xbin/busybox don't exist on /system/xbin until after a restart.
Finally, the busybox we are using to install doesn't seem to make all of the links to all of the nice commands we are used to, so things like grep, cp, etc... they won't work. I'm trying to figure out how to re-run the GUI busybox installer and point it to the loop folder, but haven't had much success.

You beat me to the punch... was about to point it out.
Not sure what version of busybox this is but I will try with 1.19.2 and see how it goes.
Edit: Got root! It works great... for Busybox, use Busybox Installer to be able to get the latest version (1.19.4) I confirm that system is R/O for now.

I did have some typos, think it's right now. That is an old busybox, it was just a quick find and it includes losetup but it's not one to use full time. Maybe sync is needed at the end so files are written properly. I didn't have to use -t ext4 with HC, but Ill add it to the OP
[edit] you have to use "busybox cp or busybox grep" I didn't include a way to add all the symlinks. Wow I have typos everywhere it's the end of the day for me, working nights.

Ok ... Got root!
Titanium works, Busybox Installer works, Superuser works, Root Explorer works...
Only thing is that System is R/O but we will work on it.

Waiting for a R/W system...and then, no one will stop my update

I can't get it to root :-(

At what point, need some more details.

The tools folder gets pushed (the 3 files are copied) but then it says there is no such folder.
edit: never mind - i created the folder manually and pushed the files into the folder
edit2: rooted - thakns guys

Brilliat work, will try this later (need to get the sdk all set up again, I've been distro swapping). Got a pool match tonight too, so will try as soon as I can, will give whatever feedback I can later.

I forgot adb can't push a whole directory, it instead only copies the files within the directory.

wait how is it rooted if it's r/o I thought point of root was to make the file system r/w... er is root just allowing you to view all directories? Sorry for a noobish question, but you gotta start somewhere right?

Well I think if we have su working we will be able to mount /system rw in some way if not directly. I cant imagine not being able to.
In any case though being able to write to /data as root is very useful. Example: Hulu flash fix.

You can't view /data if you're not root. That's one thig. Also, other functions may require root, like advanced networking things, etc.
I agree, not being able to write to /system is a major inconvenience, but most of the root programs will still work, as long as you're not writing to /system.

Since this is a temp root, does it mean that I will have to reroot every time I reboot? Will apps like Adfree work on this?

better yet is there a way we can do this solely on the tab? im away for work for another 4 weeks and only have my cell and a100 with me :-(

After you are rooted the above can be run without adb from a terminal as su.
The mount point can be anywhere ex. /sdcard/loop instead of /data/local/tools/loop

[Q] Reading usb drive in cmw and in adbfire.

The first question I am not sure can be done but if it can I would like to know how. When applying prerooted firmwares in cmw recovery is it possible for it to look on mounted usb storage? I see the usb storage folder but when I click it is always empty so to install new firmware I have to transfer it to the internal sd of the fire tv first.
Secondly there is an option in the adb fire program where it asks if the firmware you want to install is located on a usb storage. Everytime I try to use this feature it can't find the drive or it finds the drive but does not see the firmware I have on it and again I have to transfer it to the unit.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I'd be interested in knowing more about your issue with adbFire not finding a drive. This is the first report I've seen of that. Regarding firmware installs...From adbFire's Help system:
Install AFTV firmware
Install firmware to AFTV. Upgrade (or downgrade) your AFTV firmware. This works for firmware on a mounted USB drive/stick and for firmware on your PC. When updating firmware from USB storage, adbFire looks on all devices for files with an extension of ".bin" or ".zip" and presents them for your choice.
Installing firmware from a usb stick/drive is nearly twice as fast as installing a firmware file located on your PC or LAN.
Please note that installation of firmware via Amazon's Native Recovery (this method) has been effectively obsoleted with the availibility of ClockworkMod, compiled for the Fire TV by [email protected]
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to install custom Clockwork Mod firmware via Amazon Native Recovery. It will not work!

Yes I have tried both .zip and .bin but had no luck. The farthest I have gotten is I mount the drives via adbfirm and it will recognize a drive then tell me there is no firmware on the drive. Could it be the brand of usb stick I am using or does it need to be a powered usb?

If the drive is mounted, the linux find command should locate any *.bin or *.zip files, your brand or hub won't have any effect. I'm mainly replying to let you know I've read your post -- I won't have access to my rooted ftv until Monday morning at the earliest. It would also be helpful to see a log captured after you attempt to find firmware on your mounted drive. You should see something in the log like this:

"./adb" shell su -c find /storage/usb -name *.bin -o -name *.zip

How would I go about capturing a log for you. Also just curious about my first question I wasn't sure is it possible to read a mounted usb in the custom recovery menu or must the fire tv be fully booted.
Also.. not sure if this helps but when I mount the usb stick using stick mount on the fire tv it does not give me the error of nothing found but the select firmware menu comes up and this is the only choice I have available "sh: find: not found"

None of my comments apply when booted to a custom recovery, you need to check with rbox for that.
adbFire logs are found using the File-View Log menu command. The various non-Kodi commands also require my busybox and the various support scripts, aka System Tools; I don't support busybox from other sources. I also ask that you be using the current version of adbFire when seeking support, currently 1.22.

The find command is missing. Install System Tools. This will install busybox as mentioned above, which will give you find.
The Install Firmware command should check for System Tools and warn you if they are missing. That will be fixed in the next update.

I just noticed you're not using adbFire to mount your drive; I can't support stickmount, sorry. If you can change your mount location to be under /storage/usb it might work, idk. I know it does work with System Tools installed and adbFire mounting the usb drives.

I used adb Fire to mount my drive originally and it gives me the message that no firmwares are on the drive. Here is a log of me mounting in adb fire succesfully but then it unable to find the file.

I used adb Fire to mount my drive originally and it gives me the message that no firmwares are on the drive.

Sorry, I can't duplicate your error on a clean system, with System Tools installed , multiple drives mounted with firmware sitting on each, just for purposes of testing. All firmwares were found, every time. The find command is pretty straightforward.
You may have some weird edge case I've overlooked in code, but I'd need to see a log from a clean system w/o third-party busybox, mount tools, etc. If we can spotlight a bug, I'd be happy to fix it.

I tried this when i first unboxed the unit and was unable to get it to read anything could it be the way I have the usb stick formatted or the way the zip file is named?

adbFire drive mount supports vfat,ex-fat,ext2-4,hpfs+ and ntfs. Install Firmware will find files with embedded spaces ,e.g. "test file.zip" or "test file.bin" but not "test file zip" or "test file bin".

my stick is a fat32 and the files is named update.zip so it should work?... The weird thing is it seems to get farther when I mount it using stick mount (it brings up a menu) then it does when I mount in adb fire although I have yet to get either method to work. I am gonna restore one a little later and do everything from adbfire and see if I can get you a log or mabye it will work.

Ok so I started from scratch and I am having the same issue here is the log.. I notice it saying the mount is busy I am not sure what that means.... I also installed es file explorer and I do not see the mounted usb storage anywhere on the sdcard even after it says it has mounted succesfully.

[Q][ROOT] Root cannot access /data (adbd insecure).

Hi there everyone!
I'm trying to `adb backup` a device with no screen. I installed CWM, a rootkit, and SuperSU/adbd insecure, fully updated. Now I have the following problem:
Code:
# Without adbd insecure, su simply fails, no message on phone from SuperSU:
pc$ adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
1|[email protected]:/ $
# With adbd insecure, validated in SuperSU
pc$ adb shell
[email protected]:/ # cd /data
[email protected]:/data # ls
opendir failed, Permission denied
255|[email protected]:/data # su system
DIE: credentials different than expected
1|[email protected]:/data # whoami
whoami: unknown uid 0
1|[email protected]:/data # su
[email protected]:/data # ls
opendir failed, Permission denied
Again, nothing shows up on the screen (I'm checking that using ADB Control, which, incidentally, has to be killed before launching `adb backup`, otherwise adb stops after a few seconds.)
Any help is wholefully welcome!
Configuration:
Hardware: i9195 with dead screen & digitizer, 8gb internal memory.
OS: Android 4.2.2
Mods: CWM installed using heimdall, RootKit from this thread, then SuperSU updated
Additional apps: adbd insecure, adb up to date on computer
