[UI] GN Fastboot Flasher[v1.5.0][27/7]

I'm proud to present you the GN Fastboot Flasher (GNFF)
I love the simplicity and the convenience of Odin, but it's close source and also there a few files to flash with Odin. So I decided to create an Odin-like app, but for using with fastboot.
Remember that this app is in Beta stage may not be a complete and safe way of flashing. By using this software, you accept its danger.
This app only works on Windows. I have no plan to distribute it to Linux/Mac. The reason is clear, I know nothing from coding on Linux/Mac .Also I'm sure there are lots of work to do in the windows version.
GNFF Functions:
Flashing boot.img, zImage, zip file containing zImage
Flashing radio, bootloader, recovery, system
Flashing stock image files (.tgz)
Flashing stock image files automatically by downloading from Google servers
To do:
Add other options, like unlocking bootloader - Done
Make logging better and complete - Done
Add other languages
Bugs:
You say!
Changelog:
Version 1.5.0:
Fixed image downloading problem.
Added ability to update the program(Wait till the next version).
Added a part named "Addons".
Added ability to unlock/lock the bootloader.
Added Console to execute commands using adb and fastboot.
Some aesthetic changes.
Added support for JB ROMs.
Now you can inter "Custom" for your current ROM, and GNFF will download and install the latest official ROM.
Added a button to clear the log.
New icon.
Added abiliy to use drag & drop for flashing files.
Adding ability to use "open with..." for flashing files
Version 1.0.2:
Added an option to download and flash stock images from Google servers
Added an option to reboot to bootloader
Fixed the bug that was causing the log part don't be scrollable
Now GNFF doesn't let stop the flashing progress using repressing "Start" button
Version 1.0.1:
Added bootloader control, now it doesn't flash anything on devices with locked bootloader.
Added zImage control, now it gives an error in the log section when the zip file doesn't contain a zImage.
Added some more log informations.
Version 1.0.0:
Initial version
Sources:
To be honest, I'm not pro in using Git and publishing open source apps. Anyway I pushed them to github. You can compile them using AMS.

looks interesting. looking forward to test it out later

It seems a good idea, good work, carry on

Added 1.0.1 version to the first post. Enjoy!

I have no need to use this at the moment so won't try it. It looks very good though and I hope you keep up the development.

Super cool idea. So we can use this app to install latest stock images from Google. Could we install also Cwm images ( is this the recovery part)?

Yes.
That option is for flashing recovery image files.

I think the potential for this app is really great. It could be used for senarios like:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) update image
3) install an image with root
etc...

Yes. I will add this features soon, but now I prefer to focus on fixing bugs rather than adding features.
Also, I didn't catch what you mean about update image.

Unfortunately ALL of the USB ports of my laptop are broken since yesterday. So I cannot test anything and you may see a lot of errors in this build. However 1.0.2 is ready and you can download it from the first post. Enjoy!

Looks good! Great Job Sina
Thank you

Bumping this thread. Any further development?

Fortunately, yeah.
Since last month, I was working to fix all the bugs and make GNFF fully stable. Now I think I have done it. I hope you enjoy this software.

is there already an option to show the Gnex's current version of bootloader / firmware / baseband etc etc?
By the way nice work there.

this app is great but how to use it ?
i tried many time but the app said my phone wasn't connected,
but it shown connected in android.
please release the tutorial mate.

Have you installed adb drivers ? If not that's the issue . Boot in to bootloader ( power off the device - press volume up + down + power button ) then it'll ask for adb drivers . You can find the gnex adb drivers from googling .
After installing drivers , you are good to go .
.. Beamed Directly Via GNEX ..

Modified CWM image for Defy Mini

Sometime it is handy to have tool which help us when we are not able to boot to normal image.
When this tool is in fact multitool it cannot be better.

I've tried to build cwm recovery with online tool http://builder.clockworkmod.com/
Although build was successful it was not very useful because there worked only keys
Volume Up and Volume Down for moving cursor and no key for selection.
Then I tried to replace recovery binary with binary from custom recovery of 2ndinit
for defy 2.3 and it seems that it was success (needed also change some configuration
files because partition layout is different). So here is it. Don't try to flash
it because you end up with soft bricked phone and need to reflash phone with RSD
lite with stock sbf file. Currently only usage is to boot it via fastboot when
phone in fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery-defymini.img
Maybe somebody will be able in the future port also 2nd init.
You can use Volume Up and Volume down keys for moving cursor, Menu key for selection
and Back button for return back, adb is also working.
If somebody has build environment setup he can create cwm from sources with recovery.fstab
from image and next key codes:
Code:
key 68 CAMERA
key 115 VOLUME_UP
key 114 VOLUME_DOWN
key 116 POWER
key 139 MENU
key 102 HOME
key 158 BACK
key 217 SEARCH

I successfully create a CWM image. All keys are working (http://builder.clockworkmod.com/done?build_id=3de865398fcafa141514c2a5f343a8e6)

This time I repacked TWRP created for HTC Explorer (Pico) to Defy Mini. Try it also only via fastboot mode.Thanks original developers for theirs work.

Thanks for TWRP.
I created CWM 6.0.3.0
Any custom ROM, please?

CM10 HTC Explorer (Pico) port
First thing: What SystemROM size showing in Titanium Backup?
Model name will show as A310 (Explorer). Try that because I don't have Defy Mini. Build contains stock defy mini kernel. Defy Mini recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2187074. Make nandroid of stock rom. Tell if you can boot to it. If yes i will try made custom kernel (kexec or 2ndboot) & simpler cwm usage (2ndinit or 2ndboot) ,Model name will show as A310 aka Pico. If not, when restore nandroid or reflash stock rom via RSD Lite.

Also: if it boots make screenshot (better photo cause i will know if you didn't faked) of About Phone.

No bootoader can intall the UNOFFICIAL Rom :s
All becomes the Error "Status 7" E Failed to load cm-10-20130314-UNOFFICIAL-defymini.zip

Currently not much time for it, so only screenshot from TB. If useful I can put here also stock boot and recovery.img
BTW we have complete firmware on http://www.droidevelopers.com/defy-mini-xt320-xt321/
If I have more time I will try to boot into this cm with suplied boot.img via fastboot.

It's same cm10 version there i posted earler. Same Pico port, but without defy mini boot.img (maybe it will remove installiation aborted errors) & also zip made by sample.zip (also to avoid instaliation aborted errors). This CM10 zip doesn't include bootmenu from
Some offtopic: Did somebody know what is Defy mini codename? etc. HTC Explorer is Pico.

TinBoost is the name.

i try to install the Unooficialcm10 with ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.3 but it's the same.

I think the only way to make install this CM10 it's to copy files from zip manualy using ADB. Also I will try to change modules lib files from pico to timboost, but I think it will be useless. Also could you make flashable zip of system/bootmenu files?
I think error appears, because DMini uses different system mount point (it's in Meta-INF). If we want to make CM10.zip work we need to copy system files using adb in bootmenu or we need to have 100% working zip on defy mini and when DON'T TOUCHING Meta-INF we need copy rom content....

Looks great! At last some nice looking tool for linux. Will try it tomorrow when i get my G2 back from warranty service.

Hello
I'm thinking that something would be good can Flash the stock recovery, by issue of updates via OTA.
I have an international D802, I don't have the recovery of other models, and I do not include them in the program.
Whoever has the original of these models I can post the download link here.
Thank

Hi mate!
Thank you so much! That's a great tool for Mac!
It's a must! If you have another OS.
Btw would be great if you can also add the stock recovery just in case!
Cheers!

Hi, you have to unzip the TAR inside your personal folder, if you unzip it outside it execute permissions are lost

I apologize
I have detected an error in the scrip that could cause it not to run correctly.
I'm uploading the version revised and expanded, with the "restoration EFS" included

I'm sorry but can you please post the installing instructions for mac? Also, will it work with OSX10.5.8? Thanks.

Hi oscar!
A brief explanation:
MAC, uses kernel Darwin, that means that it is UNIX, so it will operate like that on Linux, that is compatible with UNIX.
Having that clear we can say that MAC and LINUX are supported in the use of bash script, but are not supported in the use of binary, but that's the script that knows to differentiate that binary used at each time depending on your system operatrivo is where running the script (Linux or Darwin)
Instructions for use, for Mac and Linux:
- Download the file.tar.gz, unpack in your personal folder, to not make mistakes you unpack in your desktop.
- With the file manager navigate to the folder where you unpacked.
- Now it stings twice on the file menu.sh
If you do it from console:
- Open the terminal
- Browse to the folder where you unpacked
- type:
Code:
./menu.sh
If I'm wrong correct me please

Hi,
Found an error in the English version tools/re.sh line 143, you are missing an "r" in the CabFlasher module.
Additionally there is an issue flashin a recovery, did not have a chance to troubleshoot this, but you might want to have a look at loki.sh:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot: cannot open for read: Permission denied
[+] loki_patch v2.1
[-] Failed to open /data/local/tmp/loki/aboot.img for reading.
I was trying to flash the TWRP recovery on an OPEN (d802) 32GB device.

This looks like a great tool for those of us on Linux. I am trying to root my LG G2 D801 from T*Mobile, but have already upgraded to kitkat. Will this enable me to downgrade to the Jelly Bean ROM that shipped with the phone so that I can root it?
If not, I would really appreciate being pointed to directions of how to do that. I have not had any luck in finding those.

Thanks...

IMEI backup/restore tool for Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SGH-I337 & Bell SGH-I337M
Brought to you by AntaresOne​
NOTE: This is only for Galaxy S4 with Qualcomm Snapdragon 600, Galaxy S4 Active version is here, Exynos 5410 (GT-I9500) version is here.
To devs: modifications & redistribution are not allowed. Contact me before including my work or any part of it in your stuff.
Explanation
What is IMEI?
Wikipedia
Why should I backup it?
When you start to mod your phone, sometimes may happen that you lose it (a bad flash, a wrong mod...) and without your phone is like this. Shortly, you lose mobile network forever.
The Qualcomm variant of Galaxy S4 doesn't have IMEI stored in EFS as most people think, it's stored in another place. Partitions to backup/restore are 8, each is required by the system to have IMEI. These are: EFS (there is IMEI's country code), modemst1, modemst2, m9kefs1, m9kefs2, m9kefs3, backup and fsg. It doesn't do miracles, so if you lose IMEI and don't have a backup, you're lost.
Features
Complete IMEI backup
Autozipping of saved partitions
Installation
Download tool from the link below
Put the zip file in your sdcard
Reboot in recovery
Install zip from sdcard
Choose downloaded zip file
Reboot system
Usage
When installed, the "imeibkp" executable goes in /system/bin. Obviously root is a must. This is not an app, so to run it you must use Terminal Emulator. It's very user-friendly and n00b-approved (joking :laugh, normally you shouldn't run into issues while using it.
Open Terminal Emulator
Write su and press enter (this is to obtain root access)
Invoke this tool by writing imeibkp and pressing enter
To restore just invoke again imeibkp
In case you want to export your backup, it is in /sdcard/IMEIBackup and called IMEIBackup.zip (Internal Memory on PC through USB connection)
If you change ROM you'll lose this tool (you'll not lose a backup already made), in this case just follow again Installation steps

unknown device! GT-I9295 , GT-I9505....SGH-I337 is required
Also tells me busybox not found(not sure if that is required)

Thank You so much DEVS for your time and efforts for all of us in the Android community!!

Thank You for your awesome work!! works flawlessly.:good:

I didn't realize the i337 and i337M were so different that this very useful tool can't work on the M version.

@AntaresOne
I'll attach the output of my commands here as a zip to make it easier for you. I have the i337M version.
AFAIK i337 is the bootloader locked AT&T version and i337m is the Canadian version with unlocked bootloader but no other differences.
Thx for making this tool and now fixing it for us Canadian galaxy s4 users !
Cheers
//edit
The zip name isn't the best lol there's no actual imei files included, only the output of the 2 commands your asked for

Update!
Now compatible with SGH-I337M
Download: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934537090

Ya thanks i337m user here. I had to CD to the system/bin to get the command to run

Thanks for this amazing tool...

This is a multi-function utility app with the following features:
•BACKUP your existing multi Rom to your internal or external memory using an accelerated multi-core GZIP binary PIGZ.
•RESTORE a previously made backup to your multi ROM slot
•DELETE a Multi-ROM
•DELETE a Multi-ROM DATA only (factory reset)
• DISPLAY detailed info of your Multi-boot setup AND backups
•RE-PATCH a zip already patched with the patcher snapshot app to a specific ROM slot. Allowing Note4 recoveries to flash without freezing. This uses a ZIP binary which doesn't need to unzip and process everything inside. Making a copy of your zip will take time tho.
• Switch ROMS and reboot within the app
Things not working (yet)
•ONLY FOR DUAL Sorry since you can't fit a multi ROM in the NOTE 4s tiny cache partition I can't test this function. I have an S4 but it's in repair. Once I have it functional I will add multi support.
•RE-PATCHER ISSUES Since Chen updates the info.prop for regularly I am going to fine a way to edit the file as it is without needing to constantly update along with patcher snapshot.
FAQ
Please be aware this early release does not have much in the way of tutorials and limited safety checks be sure you make TWRP backups in case something goes wrong.
Patcher app Snapshot
My app is only a complain companion to this amazing piece of work! thanks to Chenxian for making this all possible.
Check out the patcher thread here:

Latest snapshot link
Download the patcher snapshot here:

DOWNLOADS

First app run will install a custom busybox and binary folder which will NOT interfere with any other system functions
Once installed you should see this message
The main screen shows you active multi boot information tapping the button above will toggle between ROM and backup info
You can toggle the storage path too and choose your external microSD or internal memory to make backups
Tap on the ROM slot you want to access. This brings up the operations menu which has real time info of backup/restore progress
You can cancel this operation or force close the app from the notification bar
You can select a patched file generated by patcher snapshot app and re-patch for a specific ROM slot.
Note 4 users must do this since AROMA won't work from recovery yet and the only other option is to use patcher snapshot app to make your install.
If your primary ROM fails to boot having a re-patched zip to flash from recovery is essential
My basic file manager allows you to select your file by long-presing. Then you select a slot and a re-patched zip will be created in the same folder as the original
You can also switch ROMs and reboot into it from within my app!
It is a stand alone app that will need to be installed once and can be quickly accessed later from your launcher independently as well as accessed within this app.
Enjoy! And please give feedback to help improve this app.

First Trial Run
@rlorange, I ran this (48) on my SPH-L720 (Qualcomm Variant), first on CM-12.1 , AntaresOne & Alucard24 then on TW 5.0 Kushan02. Both recognized all of my slots dual, slot-1, 2, both did a backup to my external sd. I ran it on TW 5.0 last so did the restore from there, everything appeared to work but after waiting a while had to flash kernel then restored backup booted. Here are a few screenshots from CM-12 & TW 5.0.

Only Dual is supported atm sorry. Hang in there my S4 should be fixed soon so I can get multi working...
I'm glad they are being recognised at least

Is there any step by step faq for creating a patched ROM....
Or is this guide still valid ?

Hey
Is it possible to at data backup ?
Data works great on note 4 (ATM cmremix on primary and tw on data )

During backup of roms, the app makes *.tar.gz files of system and data, but did not do this for the kernel, why?
