Just Some Random Screen Shots Of TWRP, Not From This Phone
*oh and I have some new clockwork recoveries if you all want these too, they appear fine with the minimal test I've done, if you all want I can upload these too - built from newest source something like 6.0.4.6? cant recall the versions and am lazy now, but built for kitkat roms
For sure gonna try this out if I have some free time tomorrow. It's getting late or else I would already be testing it out now
demkantor as you advised me first i just booted the recovery .. works well
flashed recovery works as expected
i dont have sdcard so you know the broken section is not for me
Working ADB sideload confirmed
Mind sharing how did you fix that?
My idea is that the problem is in fstab.recovery, but I'm not entirely sure on that. Could you please share "device-related" changes for TWRP?
Sure thing, I hope have some time in front of a PC this next week, I'll put up a new build with sd-ext fix and post a github link and clean up the op. Sorry just haven't had like ant quality PC time in the past few months

Alright, finally got around to flashing this. All the basic functionality I used CWM for, works perfect in TWRP. Pretty awesome
Man, this is awesome! I was using some old TWRP 2.2.0 version i found on some weird chinese site after failing to build it myself. Thanks fr thins man! :laugh:
awesome job demkantor
and i can gladly take all the credits for this tool :d LoL
Why switch?
Hey @demkantor,
great work again, I guess, thanks. We vision users are lucky to have folks like you still working on our device.
One overarching question--why switch recoveries, and if I do, to this TWRP or your (or Nevergone's?) CWM? I have used 4EXT (I think at your suggestion, in fact) ever since I rooted my phone in August, 2012, and no problems. I have kept up with all the latest ROMs in the Flinny line (and a few others) including 11.0, though I have now stepped back to his last 10.1 build while KitKat needs fixing. My needs are pretty basic, I suppose...I just flash the occasional new ROM, make backups, occasionally restore them (like in going from 11.0 back to 10.1.) I rarely touch adb...it just hasn't been necessary. I am perfectly happy with my phone, and marvel at its longevity!
So, stick with the latest 4EXT, or jump to something newer?
Thanks,
p-d
ps still at the U? Go to Al's for me sometime, I miss breakfast there.
Thanks!
In truth I still prefer 4ext myself, its my favorite recovery but development on it has slowed over the past year. The only reason I bothered to make this was for @AYEHAN who has a broken SD tray and needed to be able to sideload a ROM, currently 4ext is lacking this feature. So if your current recovery is still working for you then I would suggest to stick with it, TWRP is nice and I use it on most my devices (as 4ext isn't available) but if it ain't broke don't fix it!
Yeah last few days of brake before the new semester begins, and for sure will go to Al's, best whole in the wall there is!

One major bug I came across, is it will no longer flash roms. Like, regardless of what the rom is it just won't flash it, it spits out
assert failed: get prop("ro.product.device") == "
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard ,
and I know these roms all work since it was flashing them beforehand. Just thought I'd let you know
*Edit*
So any rom other than G2Slim won't flash for me. CM10.1, Flinny's CM11, etc. It's so odd
*Edit 2*
I installed CWM v5 again just to make sure it wasn't a problem with the roms themselves or my sd card, and things install fine, so it must be a random bug with twrp, hopefully a very rare one at that
I just tried and found a similar result, without looking into it much I see there are a couple update-binaries used with various ROMs and this build works for one and not the other, at least that's what I see so far as I'm coaching my friend on how to do this as the phone is with him on the other side of town right now.
I'll look into a fix for this as it would be nice to be able to flash all Roms not just some, thanks for the bug report!

Fix permissions and terminal work fine, I'll try a theme if I can work out how to do it but I don't have a spare SD card I can test partitioning on. All in all great work
Thanks for running those tests, with school and not having my g2 in front of me I haven't had a chance to pick up this project, but I should have my phone back shortly. One of the things I was planning to do (after all functions are 100%) was make a few themes, which is quite easy if your interested
http://www.teamw.in/twrp2-theme-guide
It surprising how customizable and fun a recovery can be so if you get around to it I will for sure link any you make and hopefully will have a few of my on in due time

Just tried a theme, works fine. I would make some but I have no working PC right now. Might be able to unpack and edit an existing one on device though
Needed to get a recovery compatible with SELinux support in order to install latest CM11 Alpha 3 (Flinny's).
Works fine. None of the errors above when installing CM11 and gapps.
Great work!
tried this alot of times , plus flash the recovery 3 times but could not sideload an image :/
e:/ sdcard not found something error
sorry for that, I'm sure it's a stupid question, but just to be sure...
there is no different way except flashing this .img using a pc...right? I tried using TWRP app last night but it wants to know which device is and it's not listed
thank you a lot
Alex
If you want I'll make you a flashable.zip or you can use a terminal emulator on your phone, just download to SD card and name it recovery.img
Then open up emulator
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

flash the zip
reboot
enjoy!
so....without further ado, I present you guys with boot2gecko for Nexus S 4g

So what works and what doesnt?
I'm still trying to figure that out, but from what I can tell so far, everything should work. I had to run out to do some errands after flashing it myself so I haven't had very much time to play around yet.
So I've never messed around with fastboot before, I'm looking up tutorials now. Will this wipe my sd card too or just the phone storage? And will this mean I would have to reroot if I wanted back on android? Thanks for all of your help man.

no, it won't wipe your SD card. You will have the exact same effect you would if you flashed a rom in recovery. This will replace android on your system, so if you want to go back to android you will have to reflash your rom. When you flash these img files you will lose all your device data (again....not the sd card data) just as if you've installed an android rom in recovery after a full wipe.

a thread for what? boot2gecko? This is a development thread. If you have some help to offer, please offer away!
I've been having a lot of trouble getting wireless data running. It appears that all anyone should need is the proper apn settings to input for it to activate....but I haven't had any luck finding a good deal of the necessary info I need. I even went as far as to contact tier 2 tech support at sprint, and they couldn't help me either.
after about a week of searching, calling, emailing, chatting, etc. I threw the project to the side burner for the time being. I decided to spend some time learing about compiling aosp, cm, etc...maybe the issue is in there somewhere. Since I'm a linux n00b I did a good amount of messing my system up several times...but I finally got it right. I formatted the whole hard drive, installed ubuntu, set up the boot2gecko environment immediately after installing, and only the b2g environment. I flashed a factory image to my phone for the proprietary blobs, just in case that was the problem, then I re-synced the repo and built b2g from source again. I sill have the exact same problem I did with the first build. Wireless voice works, wifi works....wireless data does not.
If you can help any, I would really appreciate it. I know ns4g has to be fully supported since it's in the list both on mozilla's site and in the ./config.sh list of devices.
Added some screenshots here:

Edit: Finally it is letting me comment. Yay!!
I sent you a PM hp420. A couple actually, sorry. I have tried the new ZIP and I am still not able to get voice to work, so I can't try anything APN wise with any hope of success. Are you doing anything special to get it going?
Also, in researching this, and my own experience. It seems it is required to manually wipe /system before installing the ZIP to boot properly.

You must not have wiped at all or you missed a partition
I didn't even think about my issue possibly being I am on an mvno, Ting. It shows as Sprint in android though. Might be my voice issue.
From android, try putting "*#*#3282#*#*" in the dialer. View>data profile. Maybe that username will help? Mine is different as I am on Ting.

First off, great job man :good:
But i was wondering how did you get it to boot, in my case, i was able to compile the ROM without errors, but when flashing the .zip, i would get past the two LG Logos and it would just keep bootlooping afterwards. I see you posted 3 files in your initial post, is there a special way to flash it, i guess i ll wait for the future instructions ... ... but i would still like to know if i was even close of having a working compiled ROM, still new to this kind of stuff hehe
Thanks
Nice! Ya beat me to it. Good on ya!
Anyway, I read in the other thread that quite a few things don't really work right now. Things like calls. Do you have a list of anything not working?
I wondered the same initially then I realized the only thing you missed was flashing the zip image from (I purposely split the http so you could see what file you are fetching, there are a lot of builds there ) http://
cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch-preview/daily-preinstalled/current/quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
After flashing both zips it booted up for me... I wonder how well the rom would work with other kernel configurations.. You dont need the recovery.img
But for some reason my own build failed with the following in the logcat
Code:
E/linker ( 841): ics/linker.c:1072| ERROR: Library '/system/lib/libubuntu_application_api.so' not found
E/linker ( 878): ics/linker.c:1072| ERROR: Library '/system/lib/libubuntu_application_api.so' not found

E/linker ( 973): ics/linker.c:1072| ERROR: Library '/system/lib/libubuntu_application_api.so' not found
Nz
P.s.
After install there are a few features missing like
Unable to use the Phone,
browser,
texting..
In all it is pretty much just a small taste of what it could be - which does look to have potential - but in general a waste of time using it.

-Install daily-preinstalled/current/quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
-Reboot & enjoy the preview
I got mine to build last night and installed it.
Nothing happens... It boots up and says that there are "14 tweets received"... I even downloaded the links in the last post and installed them with the same result.
Is that all it does right now? If so, I'm kind of angry that I just wasted my time doing this.

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to let you know that I'm going to be attending a port clinic with the ubuntu touch team tomorrow on IRC in order to learn how to port the new flipped image. I wouldn't want us to miss out on the awesomeness that is going to be Ubuntu Touch .
Feel free to join us/me, details quoted below.
We noticed that some of the port images linked from [3] haven't been
updated in a while. If you should need help to update to the newest
version of Ubuntu Touch, we are running a Ubuntu Touch Porting Clinic on
Thursday, 1st August in #ubuntu-touch on irc.freenode.net ([4] has a web
frontend, if you don't have an IRC client). Simply ask your question on
IRC and we'll have some folks around to help you out.

Awesome! Learn anything good?
MODIFY A 4.4.x BASED ROM'S UPDATER-SCRIPT TO FLASH WITH TWRP 2.5.0.0!
WARNING
This is a disclaimer: While this has been tested I am not responsible for ANY damage done to your device. I take no responsibility for bootloops, soft bricks, hard bricks, living brick monsters, your phone proving an omnipotent being fallible(thus negating all existence), your great aunt smoking bath salts, flying monkeys, hot pockets, obamacare, dingleberries, carnivorous dingleberries or Sundays. Use at your own risk!!
Secondary disclaimer: If you have carnivorous dingleberries then you have bigger problems to worry about - but for any phone related questions feel free to message me on here either privately or in the thread.
In honor of my 300th post here on xda I thought I should do my first guide. I decided to make this guide because some people have had issues with TWRP 2.6.x which is the version you need to flash kit kat roms. However TWRP 2.5.0.0 has been beyond stable for me and everyone I know who has used it on our wonderful ls970. So how do you flash 4.4 based roms from TWRP 2.5.0.0?! Edit the updater-script, ofcourse!!!!
Now keep in mind, the screenshots I supply will be on Linux because it is what I use - the steps should be the same for Windows, however the programs used will probably be different(Archive Manager vs 7zip/WinRar for instance). If anyone wants to do this on Windows and take screenshots I will gladly post them or give OP privileges so that you can add them yourself.
Are there any downsides to installing roms this way?
Yes - it will essentially break OTA updates for the roms. 4.4 roms built from source will always have an updater-script meant for the newer recovery versions and will not flash in 2.5.0.0. So if you want to dirty flash an update to the rom you are using, you will have to modify that updater-script as well.
Well, let's get down to business!
Things you will need:
A flashable zip file for your rom of choice(I use Vanir for this guide)
An archive manager(7zip/Winrar for Windows)
A text editor(I use gedit but Windows users will want to use Notepad++)
A working brain
Step 1: Open the flashable zip file with an archive manager
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 2: Navigate to the updater-script found in META-INF/com/google/android/
Step 3: Open the updater-script from within the archive manager. Keep the archive manager open during this process. I'm using Linux Mint 15 so it opens in gedit. Once open, scroll down until you see a bunch of lines that say 'set_metadata' and 'set_metadata_recursive'. These are the lines we need to edit.
Step 4: Now everywhere you see 'metadata' in these lines, you want to replace 'metadata' with 'perm' like in the images below.
Step 5: After replacing metadata with perm, we need to re-organize things a bit to look more like a 4.3 updater-script. After the parentheses you will see directories/files in quotation marks like in the picture below.
We need to move all of these to the end of the parentheses like so.
Step 6: The next thing we need to do is delete everything else in the parentheses EXCEPT the numbers. The numbers and quotations we just moved will be the only things left in parentheses when we are done. Also keep in mind that '0x0' will also be removed.
So - everything highlighted below, needs to go!
When you are done, it will look like this:
And when you are done with ALL of it, here is what it will look like!
Step 7: Remove asserts. This isn't always needed but it also won't hurt. The asserts placed in flashable zips are to protect you from installing a rom that isn't compatible with your device. The problem we lgog users frequently have is that our phone is called many things(ls970, geehrc4g, geespr, etc). If you've ever gotten a "Flash failed this isn't a geespr" error in TWRP, it's because that particular version of TWRP doesn't recognize your device as a geespr(even though it is). So as long as you know the rom was built for your device, it is safe to delete these lines. They are found at the very top of the updater-script like shown below.
Step 8: Save and update! Once you are done editing, simply hit save in the text editor and your archive manager should give you a warning similar to this one below.
Hit the update button and the updater-script will save inside the flashable zip!
And that's it! Your 4.4 based rom will now flash on TWRP 2.5.0.0!!
Just be careful that you edit it exactly, pay attention to the punctuation. This is not difficult but can be time consuming. Using your text editor's "Replace" function properly will help speed up the process!
So why go through all of this?
Certain users here on the lgog forums have experienced a problem with TWRP 2.6.x that essentially bricks the device. Randomly and mysteriously, the phone won't boot into the system. When trying to boot into TWRP, it will ask for a password - even though the user never supplied one in the first place. If you cancel the password, TWRP loses all functionality.
Users in other threads(specifically the nexus4 and nexus5 users) have experienced the same problem but not to the extent our lgog users have. In most cases it is because the data partition became corrupt/encrypted. The solution is to format your data partition(So best case scenario, you lose EVERYTHING). Nexus users seem to still be able to do this after cancelling the password - some lgog users haven't been as fortunate. When they cancel the password, nothing mounts, so nothing works. Even using LGNPST to revert back to stock gives an error so the phone is essentially a paperweight.
What is the cause of this?
It still isn't certain however it may be a bad emmc chip. Can't an emmc chip go bad using TWRP 2.5.0.0? Ofcourse, so this may all be superstition. It may just be a coincidence that a person's emmc chip fried while using the updated versions of TWRP. But until someone has this issue on TWRP 2.5.0.0(None have been reported as far as I know, if it happens to you, please prove me wrong), I'm going to err on the side of caution and stick with what I know works.
For most users it will just be easier to flash a different recovery like Clockworkmod but I personally wanted to stick with one recovery. Using this method, TWRP 2.5.0.0 can flash everything from stock to 4.4.x! You can look here in the lgog forums for working recoveries and their uses/limitations. But at the very least I hope this guide helped you to understand updater-scripts a bit better and the role they play in flashing roms.
QUESTIONS?
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. If it doesn't flash, get a recovery log(from TWRP go to advanced->copy log to sd, then boot back into your system and it will be on your internal memory as recovery.log) and send it to me. Or open the recovery log yourself and look for E: (For error) around where the flash failed. Usually you will see a syntax error and it will tell you what line it was on - that means the edit wasn't done properly but you will atleast know where it went wrong.
Thanks
@xboxfanj - for showing me how to do this in the first place
@engine95 - for all of his guides here in the threads
For Windows, use 7zip and notepad++. They work good.
Nice guide for those of us that prefer TWRP. Thanks.
Edit. That info was in the spoiler. My bad.

Thanks guys! My laptop is so old I cant even attempt to build anything worthwhile(damn you 32 bit!) so I can only modify stuff but will pass on what I learn to you all. As soon as I get a new computer I will be learning how to build so stay tuned.
Good job man!! Hell yeah!

Official CyanideMod built with SABERMOD 4.8 Toolchain
What we have here is going to be CyanideMod 4.4.4 builds for your Galaxy Note 2 with the bonus of Sabermod toolchain. I will continue to add tweaks and change things but this will also be stay fairly current on rebasing with CyanogenMod source as well. This rom is LOADED with features and I will continue to add more features and tweaks. CLEAN install is recommended for your first time but dirty will be fine after that unless I notify you differently.
HOW TO INSTALL
Make sure you are on a KitKat compatible recovery
Download the zip
Download compatible Gapps
WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET
Wipe Cache/Dalvic Cache
Flash the Rom
Flash Gapps
Reboot
Enjoy
Install from my previous build:
Download the zip
WIPE Cache
WIPE Dalvik Cache
Flash the ROM
Reboot
Current build:CyanideMod-V2
Downloads: Cyanidemod
Recommended GAPPS: GAPPS
(Others may work but I've only tested these)
I highly recommend using my Shift kernel as the kernel built with the rom is less than impressive
Custom kernel: Shift
Google Camera: Camera
Play Services Update: Play Services
SUPERSU:http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip
Thanks goes out to: My tester @razen_kain. He tests on the S2 but I build the same ROM for both devices. I test the Note 2 versions
Also Entire CyanogenMod Team for making their source open and available to the public. Pretty damn awesome of them if you ask me.
Features: This has all CM11 features with added stuff as well and I will continue to add more. Lock torch glowpad, non intrusive calling, PIE control, color control, Navigation bar support and shortcut support and MUCH MUCH MORE. Developer options by defualt as well as the advanced reboot menu default. I know there is more but I can't think of it right now.I will update 2nd posts with screens and features
DISCLAMER
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Due to failed attempt to make it checked default. HOWEVER if you enable it, it does work even if the check isn't sticking. I promise, I just tested it and installed earlier. Didn't realize the check didn't stick as it continued to work. Saw when you posted this. It's weird, but it's good. It'll get cleaned up
Will you be adding support for the galaxy gear 2 neo?

Well theoretically I could if it's cm11 supported but if it requires a different build and if this doesn't work I'm sure it would I'm not sure I'll have the time. Have 3 rom threads and 3 kernel threads as well. I could maybe get you a build sporadically but I build for devices have mainly so I can test everything first hand

Whatever you can do, when you get a chance would be very much appreciated, but with everything as you mentioned, you're already doing I understand the low priority. Like I said if you get the chance it would be really cool. I know it needs Samsung apps, which in turn, comes with s health, gear manager, s voice exc. I'll just wait and hope. Great ROM nonetheless. :S :thumbup:

Flashed to give it a go, it's always nice to see new Roms pop up, considering this is an older device. Rom itself is really nice and fluid and a got a few nice extras that CM doesn't have.
One note though, I tried flashing with Shift Kernel 1.8 and just got stuck at logo. I haven't read through the whole shift thread yet, which I should have I know, but a heads up for others. On stock kernel though, things are running really nice with no complaints. Thanks heaps!

To run with shift you have to flash the sensor update as well. I'm running it right now

Well I'm sure it won't boot for you with shift since you can't run it, but regular kernel no idea why. Just know I'm glad I don't have that bootloader lol
You could pull a log
Installed rom per instructions along with shift kernel and sensor fix and noticed that back light illumination was not working (hardware keys always lit) and charging limit was capped at stock values ( what's the point then) back on agni and all is smooth and snappy thanks for the awesome rom and keep up the good work
Might flash this ROM later today, one question though didn't see it under flashing instructions but saw the link under downloads. Is superuser built into this ROM or do we need to flash it (to get root access) with the ROM and gapps?
Thanks and looking forward to giving this ROM a try

Proximity sensor issue when in call. Trust me I'm a flashaholic so I don't miss anything at all. Always format Internal memory too. Weird...

Must be an error in zip, Ill fix that and Re-Upload it..
Update: Do to a problem with the Zip file, I had to Redo Zip. New one has been tested by me, And works.
Sorry for the inconvenience..
BTW: This kernel is worked on all the time, So new updates will be released alot. I already know of a few more things that I want to add.
My Goal is to make this Operate at low temps while keeping its performance as well at Longer Battery Life.
One of my test builds, The battery lasted me 3 days on a single charge. Without heavy usage.
My temps range betwen 87f /30c - and - 100f/37c (Stabilize around 97f/ 36c).

You must have gotten the zip that was bad before I replaced it with new one...........

@Eliminater74
Keep it up! It will get easier over time and its nice to look back and see how you have become more adept at what you are doing.
Just some friendly advice:
1. Always give proper credit
2. Always make clean commits.
1. is just because we do this for fun and for some sort of recognition (Even if some Devs won't admit it) and 2. because it makes troubleshooting, and reverting WAYYYY easier. When I started, I learned this the hard way. This way if you get into a situation where you have to make reverts or reset the branch, you are able to be more surgical about what you remove. If you have a commit that has alot going on in it then sometimes you cannot revert cleanly and it will have to be done manually. This can sometimes leave you more prone to make simple mistakes. Ones that we ALL make when Dev'ing late at night after a day of hard work and should really be getting more sleep. lol
Oh and 3. Learn to use Meld properly. This will make merging so easy, and will save you a metric crap ton of time.
If you need anything, feel free to PM me.

Anybody get a successful boot? I flashed on my existing 20e Rom and even on a fresh install of the Rom and doesnt boot. Stays on LG splash screen. Thanks.

This Kernel is for Aosp only that is why your rom is not booting past the splash screen.

Wow, I would of never thought that someone like you would stop in to say anything. And very positive feedback indeed..
When I saw your name, I thought I was seeing things. I had to look twice.
But thanks man... I appreciate everything you said.. It all makes perfect sense..
It's a pity this kernel won't work with slim based roms. I really wanted to try it. Running Tesla ROM and it gets stuck on boot-up screen.
