[ROM] i9000B deodexed froyo VJJPA

This is the froyo of Vivo from Brazil deodexed, its /system/app and framework inside a tar file
http://www.2shared.com/file/38XhmrXs/DeodexSysFw.html
just extract in / and then rm al the odex

Luis,
can you please post a more detailed procedure on how to update to Froyo using this file? btw... my Galaxy is from Claro. Do you know if all the functions will work normally?
thanks a million!

if you have the same rom it should work, but just to be sure, you can make a backup of framework and app under /system
what i do to use this is:
Code:
adb push this_file /sdcard/
adb reboot recovery
//choose apply update.zip (it fails, but it will mount the internal sd) in recovery
cd /
tar xvf /internal_sd/this_file.tar
reboot
and thats all, it should take a few more minutes to boot than normal until the cache is built

hi all
it is possible to put the full rom froyo of Vivo from Brazil deodexed for download.
I need it to install the theme beautiful ANDRODeNa GaLaSSiA because in my normal rom froyo I9000BVJJPAI can not install.

thanks.

you mean a full PDA/odin image ?

Yes
I am using this rom installed by odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858483) , but I do not know change these files of topic

Luis, i don't understand the procedure you suggested. If this file is .tar file, my question is:
1 - do i have to zip this file before flashing it?? Recovery will not recognize a .tar file!
2 - Why does it fail when flashed?

[APP][Update] SGS kernel flasher v1.6.2 - flash a kernel within android

This application *requires* root.
This app can flash a kernel within android on Samsung i9000, Captivate, Fascinate, Vibrant and more.
Features:
* backup kernel as update.zip (for recovery)
* flash kernel from zImage, any .tar or .zip that contains a zImage
* reboot
Usage:
backup kernel: creates an update.zip (for recovery) containing a backup of the current kernel with time and date in /sdcard/sgs-kernel-flasher/backup/
choose kernel: choose kernel image (mostly named zImage) or any .tar or .zip that contains a zImage
flash kernel: flashes the kernel
reboot: reboot the phone
Android market: SGS kernel flasher
DISCLAIMER:
The author of this app is not responsible for any damage to your phone that may be caused by usage of this app or by deficient kernel images.

Im curious, is it "bad" to flash to the partitions when in use ?
Shouldn't it be done via recovery ? Something like cwm where you'd choose flash kernel, it would safely restart your phone into recovery where it would flash your zimage and reboot.
Thnx

This partition is safe to be flashed from within android - otherwise i would not publish an app that can do that.
The partition is not used while android is running - only read at boot.
Just dont use the app with wrong files - you have to know what you are doing.

I improved the app:
v1.0.1 stable:
* added: manual reboot
* added: check selected file for valid zImage
This app is now stable - happy flashing.

oooh naice!

What are the benefits of flashing the kernel while the OS is running ?

This app does not use the redbend_ua binary - no forced reboot.
And the only purpose of this app is to flash the kernel, nothing else.

I will implement a check that will show a warning, but disablinf or removing of a lagfix is too much at the moment. There are too much different lagfix approaches and considering them all is pretty complex.

I keep most of kernels on /sdcard/kernals/ directory in .zip (CWM) format.
Any chances of adding support of such files?
Adding .tar should be straightforward too

I have updated the app one more time:
v1.2.1:
added: PDA.tar and update.zip file support
added: choose file starts in /sdcard/sgs-kernel-flasher/
added: lagfix detection and warning
That means you can now select any .tar or .zip that contains a zImage and the app will automatically extract and flash that zImage.
Major break through for easy kernel flashing on i9000, Captivate, Fascinate and Vibrant- please propagate this awesome news.
Btw. the app is now on market.

Ok this is awesome!
(you beat me to it, you know, congrats!)

I'm running the 2.2.1 firmware ( JPX trough KIES) and used the "SuperOneClick 1.5.5" application to root.
When I run the kerner installer, it would tell me that I have a lagfix installed (AFAIK I don't have any) and also tells me that my device is not rooted.
I can confirm that it's rooted by using the root-explorer and have super-user and busybox installed.

Did you see the root request dialog?
If not, you may restart the app or just have look what the superuser app says about the permissions of the sgs kernel flasher.

Does it support 'CWM' .zip files?
I mean these where not only zImage resides, but also some other thingies.
I ask this question because I wasn't able to flash SO_4_5_1 kernel using CWM file provided in this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811660

Kernel flash failed!

Hello,
Many thanks for this so nice app .
I have to inform You that he detects lagfix is running on my phone, but that is not true.
My phone is running on 2.2.1 Froyo, XXJPUI9000, and i flashed all .PIT, PDA, MODEM and CSC files trough Odin.
I rooted My phone with CF-Root.
And ofcourse differenc is visible, I charge my phone each 3 days .
So if this BUG can be fixed would be nice.
Thanks.

I will also check that - it is only a warning message, you can ignore that for the moment.
Edit: I need some mount listings, if you have working adb, please run something like this: "adb shell mount > mount-listing.txt" and attach that file to a post in this thread. That will help me to improve the lagfix detection. Thanks.

Your script works great extracting the .img file. But it's not able to create zip file. Let me edit your script with the missing file/info.
Download this file and put in folder tools;
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sevenzip/7za920.zip
change this line;
"%LOC%\tools\7z.exe" a "%LOC%\update.zip" "%LOC%\out\*"
to;
"%LOC%\tools\7za.exe" a "%LOC%\update.zip" "%LOC%\out\*"
and it should work. it will create a zip file.
Enjoy

[Tool] [SS/DS] [LB] [Deprecated] Nicki Root - Full root on latest firmware

UPDATE: check out TowelRoot app by @geohot! One-click root solution that works with latest firmware released for Xperia M single/dual (provides half-root only, don't forget to apply root fixer)
Nicki Root is deprecated, it got merged in my new dd Flasher tool and works across many devices, not only Xperia M. The attachments and changelog from Nicki Root were kept below for archiving history, but I won't provide support for it anymore. For any problem you may encounter, go to dd Flasher thread. If you want to root Xperia M through dd Flasher, downgrade your device to Android 4.1 or 4.2.2 firmware, root it with Cydia Impactor and follow the instructions from dd Flasher thread.
Changelog
Version 2.0
• Nicki Root now is called dd Flasher
Old versions
Version 1.3.3
• Bugfixes for Linux script
• Updated SuperSU to 2.02
Version 1.3.2
• Make sure the temporary folder exists before pushing the script
Version 1.3.1
• Now compatible with Linux
Version 1.3
• Implement log capabilities (users can pull last log by selecting appropriate option in main menu)
• Drop "reboot in flash mode" (after using dd, system partition layout is different and device can't be rebooted)
• Check if LED can be used to indicate status, otherwise disable it
• Minor code changes
Version 1.2
• Rewrote most of the code
• Script now uses LED to indicate status
• By popular demand, dropped choice command in favour of set command (should work with Windows XP again)
• For every single command, script will now check if it failed or not and warn the user if anything get wrong
• Rewrote the mount/umount routine, loop device is selected automatically and resource busy issues are fixed now
• Can be used with half-rooted devices now (script check if device is fully rooted and apply root fixer at runtime if needed)
• Implemented "reboot in flash mode" command to avoid needing to pull/reinsert battery manually (experimental, sometimes doesn't work)
Version 1.1
• Make sure busybox is installed after first boot (previous versions pushed busybox but didn't install it)
• Drop choice32/choice64 applets and use built-in OS command (Windows XP no longer supported)
Version 1.0.1
• Typo fix (Nicky => Nicki)
• Updated busybox to 1.22.1
Version 1.0
• Initial release

Will test as soon as Indian Firmware Update show up...

It works perfectly, I'm now rooted on 4.3 thanks to this. The only error I had was when the tool first tried to push the system.ext4 to the SD Card, it said there wasn't enough space, I just deleted the incomplete copy and then ran the tool again and it worked.

Hmm, I'd not thought of mounting the image and doing dd, that is pretty tidy.
Balls, It didn't work for me first try, error mounting the loopback device, said it was busy. I'm re-flashing the phone back to 4.1 now. I've split the shell scripts into 2, first one does the modifications of system.ext4, second one does the dd flash, with a press any key between. That way if the modifications to system.ext4 fail, you're not stuck with an unrooted phone where system partition has already been written, and you can happily start again. I was flashing from sd card if that makes any difference.
Also, would it be possible to copy the reboot executable into your temp folder before you do the dd, so that you don't have to do the battery out reset in the middle of the process, or won't reboot work once you're in that state?
Edit: Second time lucky, thanks ever so much. Maybe I just needed to start from a blank slate version of 4.1, blimey that first boot takes some time though!
cheers,
Joe

mbc07 said:
It took me a lot of time and I tried a lot of methods but I finally managed to root the new 4.3 update without unlocking the bootloader, let's root that thing.
Requirements:
You will need FlashTool and the FTF file of 4.3 update for your phone
You should be running Android 4.1.2/4.2.2 firmware with full root. If you already updated to 4.3, sorry, you'll need to downgrade to 4.1.2/4.2.2 and root it, otherwise this method won't work
You should have at least 1.5GB of free space in your Internal Storage or in your SD Card. If you don't have enough space, the installation will be aborted and your phone will be left intact
Make sure you have full root (eg. your phone doesn't reboot when you remount /system with RW access). Using this method without full root may reboot your phone during the procedure, getting you in a bootloop
Currently the script works only on Windows, I'll try to get a Linux version soon
Getting system.ext4 file: before continuing, we'll need to extract system.ext4 from system.sin present in the update. Open the FTF it with WinRAR or 7-zip and extract system.sin somewhere, then open FlashTool, go to Tools => Sin Editor, locate the system.sin file extracted previously and then click in "Extract Data". You'll get system.ext4 in the same folder you extracted system.sin. Now you're good to go
Procedure:
Download the attached ZIP and unzip its contents somewhere
Move system.ext4 extracted previously to the same folder where root.bat is
Open root.bat and follow the instructions
After the process finished, the script will tell you and your phone will be in a frozen state (it's normal). At that point, you should manually remove the USB cable and then pull/reinsert your battery. DON'T TURN IT ON, we haven't finished yet (turning it on now will get you in a bootloop).
Open FlashTool again and flash the entire 4.3 FTF, but exclude system (if you forget to do so, the root will be removed and you'll need to start over)
After flashing finished, disconnect the USB cable and start your phone. If everything went well you should be in 4.3 now, with full root access
NOTE: I'm not that good with BASH/Shell scripts, and although I had implemented some sanity checks, something may have escaped that checks. So, if you do this procedure and the shell script finish with errors, it's better to start over since something may have not worked and you may be in a partial root state...

Thank you for the feedback, I'll try to add some sanity checks before using dd. About reboot, I tried using busybox reboot but nothing happened, the same for adb reboot. Apparently after using stop, the reboot command doesn't seems to work

Uh, I forgot... Anybody tried pushing to SD Card? Did it worked?

Yes it did, sort of. The first time I did it I got an error saying there wasn't enough space (I had over 10GB free however). Once I got the error I deleted the incomplete file from my SD Card and then I ran the script again, this time it copied the file fully and then installed properly.
This occurred on the Single SIM C1905 Xperia M by the way.

Yes! Finally rooted. Thanks a lot!
Btw don't forget to change usb mode to mtp instead msc (I've tried msc and it can't copy files)

Before your script use dd it should check:
1. That there is no any apps mounted in /dev/block/loop0 (for example Swift Key). If yes, you will see 'mount: mounting /dev/block/loop0 on /data/local/tmp/system failed: Device or resource busy' (you can it by type losetup)
2. Phone is in MTP USB MODE. If you set to memory storage mode, Android will not access to sd card with system.ext4 image (script would check that can it access to /sdcard) and you will get mount argument error

The easiest way to root xperia T2 ultra dual { 5.0.2 & 5.1.1 } {.472 & .182}

well friends, its my first post here on xda.
Eventually I found the easiest way to root D5322 (.472 lollipop 5.0.2 firmware)
and
that is
just run kingroot (I tried english version)
kinguser works like a charm
no need to have superuser or superSU
every app that requires root, works as smooth as butter
like busybox force2SD and all.
I attached the english version of kingroot with this post
those who had rooted their (.470) phone with kingroot and repented later , can also try..
well..
.
.
and if you want to get rid of kinguser that had gotten installed after rooting with kingroot
here is a trick..
I am attaching a zip (thanks to @edwuard )
download that zip
put it in internal memory
extarct that zip in internal memory
now you will get a folder named mrw in your internal memory
..
..
install terminal emulator from market
write the following commands
su
(now grant superuser access)
$ will change in to #
now write the second command
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
(there is space after sh . You can copy this command from here and paste to terminal emulator)
after some sequences in terminal emulator..it will launch SuperSU
and ofcourse remove kinguser
update the binary of superSU
verify root with root checker
.
.
that's it !!
Sequel: Rooting D5322 (Android 5.1.1) :
Well it's for those who have a rooted phone (any previous version) [/COLOR]
Download the ftf file of latest firmware 19.4.A.0.182
Download latest version or V 0.8 of prf creator
Download SuperSU.zip
Now put the prf creator somewhere in your PC (let's say on desktop) extract it there.
Add ftf file and superSU.zip in prf creator
Mark all the boxes on right side of prf creator window
Hit create. In 15-20 minutes you will get a zip file named "flashable" in prf folder
Copy this flashable zip and put it in root of SD card of your phone.
Now reboot your phone in recovery
Follow in sequence :
Wipe>Advanced wipe >select cache,dalvik,system,data, internal memory >swipe to wipe>go back to recovery home>tap install>select external sd card >select that flashable zip>swipe to flash>wipe dalvik>reboot to system.
To install recovery:
Download latest nut's xzdr installer zip
Put it somewhere in your computer
Extract it, you will get a folder of same name
Connect your phone to pc in USB debugging mode
Open the extracted folder
Double click the windows installer batch file
Grant superuser access on your phone's screen
Follow the instructions on terminal
(press 1 on your pc as you have SuperSU in your phone)
After successful instalation of recovery, your phone will reboot into recovery.
Reboot the phone into system
.
.
Now you have a rooted 5.1.1 D5322 with latest Dual recovery.

No.. You don't need to unlock the bootloader

I'm really interested on following your instructions on how to root this, but first... Will this trick also work on the LTE version?

Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for sharing. I can now transfer some of my apps to ext sd card. I can now install more games. Though it can't be changed to supersu using the script and the file you've provided due to unable to update binary, foldermount is working perfectly with kingroot. By the way, I'm using the LTE version D5303 with lollipop .472 and it's now rooted.

Great

The Xposed is not working in our unit, the installation makes the device has bootloops.
