[MOD]NOOBS Flash the Eng 85 H-Boot and CWM 5 the easy way!!!S-OFF ONLY(UPDATED 2/04)

Hey All,
Here are some PD15IMG varients. This is great for noobs who are unsure about flashing the engineering boatlader wich is highly RECOMMENDED as well as a custom recovery. Once you have achieved s-off use this file to continue your rooting process. Again this only works for those of you that currently have S-OFF!!!!
You may ask why do I need an engineering bootloader the answer is you technically don't. However, it can be your last line of defense against a soft brick and is strongly suggested by any experienced modder!!!
I have included 3 separate downloads. The first file contains ClockworkMod and the engineering bootloader. I did not offer a separate file containing just CWM 5 or just the bootloader due to a few reasons. One being I believe everybody should have the Eng. bootloader and second being this offers a true flash of a custom recovery where Rom Manager does not. If you would like just one or the other open up the zip file and delete the desired file. The second file is the most recent update offered from T-Mobile. That file will give you the update unrooted and as it is intended from T-Mobile. However, it will give you an eng bootloader with CWM 5 instead of the locked bootloader and stock recovery. Allowing you to return to another rom or previous nandroid backup. The third file is for if you ever want to go back to a stock splash image or yours begins to fail. Finally, I also added thee new ClockworkMod touch recovery with the eng bootloader for the last file.
I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device please proceed at your own risk. I have tested this myself and it works just fine. However, if something were to happen to your device don't blame me
1.Download which file you want
2. Rename it to PD15IMG and place on the root of your SD card
3. If using the second file make a nandroid backup first.
4. Boot into H-boot and apply the update (by holding volume down and powering on the phone)
5. Once the update has finished either re-rename the file to something different or delete it from the sd card otherwise you will keep installing the update
AGAIN THIS IS FOR S-OFF ONLY​
BLINGO BLAMO You now can either flash your favorite rom or restore a previous nandroid backup
The downloads

So this flashes the engineering bootloader, the latest ClockworkMod recovery, and the OTA Gingerbread ROM all in one shot? I've never heard of such a package, pretty cool! :thumbs up:
EDIT: I read it again, and apparently it's just the bootloader and recovery. Still pretty cool!

flashing a radio doesnt affect root

You're welcome, glad to help propose the idea.
How about a second version that flashes only the ENG HBOOT & CWM but leaves data/system as-is? That might also be useful for some folks.

Ah excellent, I see you edited a second version into the top post.
I will keep this method in mind any time I see someone ask the same question about an HTC phone with S-OFF. It all seems to work the same once security is removed.

Thank you cmstlist for pointing me in the right direction and Bin4ry in the sensation forum for coming up with the mod, all I did is take his idea and apply it to our phone.

I'm sorry to be so dense but can you tell me how to:
"3. Boot into H-boot and apply the update"
i thought i needed the eng bootloader to apply updates
I understand that i can enter hboot by starting up while holding [power] + [volume down], but beyond that do i choose fastboot or recovery or image crc or what?
Thank you for your patience! You have been super helpful and generous!

You do not need the Eng bootloader just s-off. Once you rename the file and it is on the root of your sd card. Power off the phone and turn it back on holding volume down. The phone will the check for the file and prompt you asking if you want to apply the update. To say yes you then press the volume up button and the phone does the rest. This will give you the clockworkmod custom recovery and the engineering bootloader

Might be helpful to reiterate: after you've successfully applied the zip, rename or delete the file from your SD so you don't accidentally apply it multiple times.

I feel ashamed to ask for more help but i am stuck again
i suppose i am an ADB sdk noob,
I ran the pd15img.zip successfully then I went to load CM7 following the sdk directions here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/TMobile_myTouch_4G:_Full_Update_Guide#Method_via_ROM_Manager
(great easy to follow command line tutorial, thanks so much!)
but i am stuck again :

what is chmod command, btw?
do i need to link this file to the shell or something?
I'm afraid to do anything with the phone while I'm halfway through this process, i apologize for being so very needy, but I'm super grateful for your taking the time to noob me thru this,
i promise I'll do my best to share my knowledge with the next poor noob when this is all said and done,

All of that is unnecessary, sounds like you want cm7 so just download it boot into recovery and install it.
The pd15img takes care of most of that and if you install a custom rom it will already have root

[Q] Lot of question about pre-rooting factory JB system.img on my Galaxy Nexus

I'm new o all this stuff, so go easy with me! :silly:
If I understand correctly the root process, this should be true (correct me if I'm wrong):
Unsecure boot.img is only used to booting as root
Booting as root user allow to use some adb command
Command adb is used to modify system.img, injecting su command and superuser/supersu apk
If this is correct, can i modify a stock JB system.img and put su/superuser/supersu apk? Will this work? Then if this is right:
How can I unpack and edit system.img?
Where I can get the original su command?
Where I should download superuser/supersu apk?
I'd like to learn this stuff and do not use any external tool, apart from fastboot and adb commands. I'm quite familiar with *nix.
Thanks for helping :highfive:

uh..am i misinterpreting something here? why not just boot a custom recovery with fastboot and flash a su/supersu.apk or superuser.apk cwm zip?

bk201doesntexist said:
you will be better off building from src, if you're familiar with nix.
if not, no need to inject anything, just boot a custom recovery with fastboot and flash a su/supersu.apk or superuser.apk cwm zip.

Not so familiar to build system from the sorce, unfortunatly. I don't use a custom recovery... so there is no way of building my own system.img?

As far as I know, you cannot unpack system.img using only fastboot and adb (which you indicated you ONLY wanted to use). I know you can use this to convert it to ext4 format and then you can mount it.

Superuser is here, or, if you prefer SuperSU, it is here.
EDIT: But this is a lot of work for nothing. You could just boot an insecure kernel (which you can get from the dev section, or you could build one yourself) and then copy the su and Superuser.apk files to your device, no?

Ok. The Samsung screen loads and there's text in the top left saying "loading recovery..." this is normal on stock recovery.
The screen then goes black and the device reboots. Nothing displayed on screen. Either it fails and reboots the device or there's instructions missing so with nothing left to do it reboots.

[TOOL](OneClick)Updated 7-8-13 ATT ROOT RECOVERY ODIN LOKIFYED

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

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][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!)
OR..
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-twrp-e98010g.lok
Run the following:
Code:
adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
adb push gkatt-twrp-e98010g.lok /data/local/tmp
abd shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 loki_flash
./loki_flash recovery gkatt-twrp-e98010g.lok
To boot
Download this file: http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg_pro/gkatt/recovery/e98010g/gkatt-twrp-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 not tested external SD cards, since I don't have one with me at work.
I have also not tested backups or restores in TWRP yet.​
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!
In no particular order, special thanks to all of you guys!

If I forgot anyone, let me know and I'll add you here!

Alright guys! Let me know if you find any bugs!

This is killer, I love twrp. So this will just over flash the cwm currently added earlier of course correct? Awesome work m8:thumbup:
EDIT: Not sure why but the Loki flash file downloads as a. Txt file for me

Touch doesn't work? You have the ATT version, right?
That'd be very strange if it didn't work because of something in my kernel... it's pretty much just stock...

sorry for the "newbie" question...but the file to download are getting to the phone right?

Everything works so far tried backing up restore flashing and external sd... very nice work I will keep playing to see if i find any bugs

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!)
