[PC-APP] Recmod and Reversmod in one click! [28th Oct]

Hello,
many people don't have native 6.5 kernels so they must recmod and not all of our kitchens has any recmod-options and sometimes even this isn't enough so I built an Windows Shell extension ("extension") - it adds to Right Click menu "Recmod this folder" option

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What it needs: C++ Runtimes and .NET Framework 2.0 and newer
Installation
Download osRecmod.zip included in this post, extract it to C:\Program Files\OndraSter\osRecmod and run RightClickInstaller.exe.
If you previously had installed previous version, click Uninstall first.
To finally install it, click on Install.
And voila, without rebooting or such you can recmod or reversmode easy!
(Recmod is shown only on folders, reversmode on exe, dll and mui files.)
PS: It has been tested on Win7 x64 with disabled UAC.
PPS: I'm not author of Recmod or Reversmod!
PPPS: If you want to distribute this, please link to whole thread (post), not just download links. Also reuploading to different servers without permission is not allowed. Thanks.
PPPPS: To uninstall this "extension", run again RightClickRecmodInstaller.exe and click on Uninstall. Also, no reason to reboot!
Donate - thanks.

Nice idea my friend, but sadly it doesn´t work on my pc, i´m on win7 32 bits, all framework versions installed, c++ also, and get this error:

Have you got the RightClickRecmod.exe and recmod.exe in:
C:\Program Files\OndraSter\osRecmod
?
I think it should work when using portugese "Program Files" folder since it reads from system vars, but try it creating in English.

I may have the problem solved, I forgot to delete one line, try it now

Thx for the help, problem still remains.

When you click recmod, console window should pop-up what's the last thing in it?

Ehmm......sorry for stupid question but ....when after have recmoded the folders they disapear and some 0 bytes files appears.....what i have to do now ?

Are you recmodding just module like adc.exe, not whole folder like browsing, right?

OndraSter
Congratulations for this great tool, even if I've noticed only after moving from Kaiser to Topaz
Keep up your Super Work

I encountered a problem, here my Screenshot:
and the module name change, there is _ in the tail.

it gets renamed. Check that folder if there is inside of it the right named module (tapres.192.dll). If yes, try getting the version I posted as second in about 5th post, it fixes one problem, it might help you too.
// it gets renamed because NTFS can't handle in one folder both same named file and folder, so I rename it to _, move the recmodded file and delete the old module folder.

OK, new version with Reversmode option avaible:
Recmod - displayed at folders
Reversmod - displayed at EXE, DLL and MUI files
So now you can Recmod eg tapres.96.dll, modify icons with PE Explorer and with Reversmod pack it up back to module. All with two-clicks (right-left)

very easy solution! thanks for this

Hi y friend,
I would like to use your tools but unfortunately, i have a bug :
I think you need to use the NTFS permission in your tool in order to set the folder to recmod as owner permission
How can resolve it ??
Thanks a lot

You can't recmod whole BLuetooth folder, you must go one file by file. I'll add support for whole (or multiple) folders at once later.

Two issues:
1. If there exists no "Shell" key for the dllfile or exefile registry keys (ie HKCU\dllfile\Shell or HKCU\exefile\Shell doesn't exist), installation fails
2. Attempting to Reversemod multiple files at once fails - due to the file being reversemodded being renamed to "tmp" (may I suggest renaming it to <the_old_file>.tmp (eg shell32.dll becomes shell32.dll.tmp))

1 I write it to HK classes root, so I thought this is sooo common that it won't fail . I'll add that possibility to installation.
2 It doesn't do more at once, it goes only for first parameter. I'll add it too.

1. Sorry, HKCR not HKCU. Also I think it is quite common since most people don't have any application associated with dll's
2. What I meant by this is that if I select multiple dll's, right click on them and select "Reverse mode this file" then multiple instances of Reversemode are launched and each instance attempts to name its file to "tmp"

First help here Bob, after you changed device. You download program then you have a main folder where inside there's a folder named ghost. Cd to main folder=>cd to ghost folder and write ./ghost to start kitchen, if you get "permission denied" write chmod a+x ghost then again ./ghost

No Bob, I wrote that thing about permission denied just in case. You don't have to setup again: after you download kitchen rar file extract it and rename the folder in "ghost". Paste this folder in cygwin folder->home->YOURNAME and start up cygwin

@ kentandrei
go into this folder scripts/ghost/menu_base/base_tool
open sgs2toext4.jar and drop the system.img.ext4 into the sgs2toext4.jar
then rename the converted img file to system.ext4

Got it working yay but when I was setting up a work folder I got this error:

You read it right, here's a functional port of BDS Menu for Lumias unlocked using WPInternals.
Note: I observed some weird behaviors on early x30 devices, including prototypes that had BDS menu out of the box, where the menu would simply act like if it was broken.
The bootarm.efi loader has been taken from the grub package posted here and modified to load menu.efi instead of boot.efi, credits belong to the original person that developed this efi in 2016.
Note: attached two variants, a normal one (fs3) and a fs4 variant, if you get an error about the menu not finding its configuration files, please try the other variant.
Installation instructions:
Download the files attached in this post.
Place all files downloaded in the EFIESP partition of your phone.
Configure BCD exactly like this to have an entry loading BDS menu:
Load the entry using your favorite method.
Have fun.

That shim file might not work on 950XL, it simply reboots my phone - haven't figured out why, probably due to new CPU architecture or the firmware itself

Thanks gus ,
you can also restore the USB Mass Storage picture by adding attached bmpx files in EFIESP\Windows\System32\BOOT\ui.

To be fair as some of the capabilities of BDS menu can be very destructive (hence the big disclaimer), if you really don't know how to do this, then you may stay away from it, it won't bring you anything cool

Please, y have the lumia 530 lab rat.
Nevermind, ill modify EFIESP\efi\Microsoft\Boot\bcd using visual BCD.

You shouldn't use visual BCD. Use BCDEdit since some of the options aren't available and Visual BCD isn't built for phones.

Note: currently looking at a problem where the block id for efiesp might differ between phones, if you get an error message saying can't load menu configuration file, please tell me your device model.
Edit: Fixed for some other problematic devices, I'll send an alternative version of the menu to see if it fixes it for most with the two variants

also need add device
bcdedit /store .\BCD /set "{7e1bd2b8-0ab0-11e8-aa3b-1c3947b79a68}" device partition=f:\efiesp
and(in my case) add it to customactions( activation by vol up/down )
bcdedit /store .\BCD /set "{bootmgr}" custom:54000002 "{7e1bd2b8-0ab0-11e8-aa3b-1c3947b79a68}"
(custom:54000002 == vol down, custom:54000001 == vol up)

The first time a came across this menu was on the Mi4 W10M rom. Thanks for sharing this.

Does not work on my lumia 950 it just seems to fit into ARM V7 with 32 bit architecture

Someone can copypaste those commands instead of attaching pictures?
Nevermind, i OCR that photo:

Install official AOSP GSI using Odin

Hi,
I have the latest stock ROM (G960FXXSFFUB3) on my Galaxy S9 (SM-G960F, Exynos) and my goal is to install official AOSP Android 11 GSI using Odin. I pretty much succeed, but I got bootloop as a result. Can you please help me to resolve this problem?
Steps to reproduce:
1. OEM Unlock [source, by @georgeburduli ]

3. Build the AP file to use with Odin [source, by @kkoo ]
3.1. Download lz4_win64_v*_*_*.zip
3.2. Using 7zip extract lz4_win64_v*_*_*.zip to "lz4_win64_v1_9_3"
3.3. Download vbmeta.img
3.4. Place vbmeta.img into "lz4_win64_v1_9_3/bin" and run the following command:

lz4.exe -B6 --content-size vbmeta.img vbmeta.img.lz4
3.5. Download the latest aosp_arm64_ab ROM and using 7zip extract system.img, vendor.img and cache.img into "lz4_win64_v1_9_3/bin"
3.6. Run the following command:
Code:
lz4.exe -B6 --content-size system.img system.img.lz4
lz4.exe -B6 --content-size vendor.img vendor.img.lz4
lz4.exe -B6 --content-size cache.img cache.img.lz4
3.7. Download your phone latest Official Stock ROM (I got my using Samsung Smart Switch)
3.8. Extract the downloaded file (you'll have the BL, AP, CP, CSC, HOME_CSC .tar.md5 files)
3.9. Using 7zip extract the following files from AP_*.tar.md5 into the "tools" folder from step 2.2:
- boot.img.lz4
- dqmdbg.img.lz4
- recovery.img.lz4
- userdata.img.lz4
- vendor.img.lz4
3.10. Move vbmeta.img.lz4, system.img.lz4 and cache.img.lz4 from the "lz4_win64_v1_9_3/bin/" into the "tools" folder
3.11. Double click on the "tools/batch.bat" file
3.12. Once it finishes go to the "tools/temp-folder". Inside you will find the AP_TAR_MD5_CUSTOM_FILE_ODIN.tar.md5
4. Flash the ROM

I heard that many users have issue get GSI running in their S9. Endless Bootloops.
Don't users could fix it flashing stock firmware.
Others by doing a factory reset.
Others by flashing TWRP recovery:

Hope that your can find a way to get your device up and running again.

I got an s9 too, but it got stuck into a bootloop but I can't access anything and it won't allow me to completely power on the the device. It took to Samsung service centers and they get an error called "binary corrupted" the device was already setup with twrp but by the time it got in the loop a thief who had snatched it was trying to flash it after I locked it with my "Samsung find my device"

What model do you have? sm-f936b?
Is it rooted?

f936b/ds. yes. it is rooted!
i tried every different variant of methods of installing: magisk modules like narsil, amc...
tried the 2.5.0.5 and 2.7.2.1.
it cannot find driver. it ends in a loop. i let install drivers (so in 2.7.2.1 there is an info that it will install magisk module.). after restart it asks me for installing drivers again... and again... and again.....
i remember when i was on Android 7.1.1 there was a way to get it installed by renaming audio_effects.conf.
i assume that is obsolete i guess?

sry for repost, but editing did not work!
So i did read that it has to do something with the mounting paths in "post-fs-data.sh"
This is, what i have got in my post-fs-data.sh
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# Kill audioserver PID if it was initialized already
SERVERPID=$(pidof audioserver)
[ "$SERVERPID" ] && kill $SERVERPID
mount -o bind /vendor/etc/audio_effects.xml /odm/etc/audio_effects.xml
magiskpolicy --live 'allow audioserver audioserver_tmpfs file { read write execute }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow audioserver system_file file { execmod }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow mediaserver mediaserver_tmpfs file { read write execute }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow mediaserver system_file file { execmod }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow audioserver unlabeled file { read write execute open getattr }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow hal_audio_default hal_audio_default process { execmem }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow hal_audio_default hal_audio_default_tmpfs file { execute }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow hal_audio_default audio_data_file dir { search }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow app app_data_file file { execute_no_trans }'
magiskpolicy --live 'allow mtk_hal_audio mtk_hal_audio_tmpfs file { execute }'

This is the way to make it work :
1. Install Audio Modification Library module in Magisk and reboot (this is installed automatically by the third zip for you - just needs activating)
2 when rebooted - load up V4a and let it install drivers and reboot
3 when rebooted - disable the AML module and reboot
4 when rebooted - load up V4a and let it install drivers and reboot - v4a should now be working ok (be sure to check legacy mode!!)

thank you for your instructions.
one question: can you confirm this? do you owner of a z fold 4 and do you have successfully installed V4A?

This doesn't work on the Fold 4 anymore.
I used this process with AML 5.1 and Viper 2.7.2.1 on the Fold 3 successfully.
On the Fold 4 Viper still, after the last reboot, will tell you the drivar is not installed etc. and asks to install and reboot - this continues forever.

Okay, so that means viper4android won't work on Z Fold 4!
Okay, then i will install JamesDSP as an alternative and live with this issue :/
:edit:
but i think it just has to do with the post-fs-data.sh and the mounting paths. if we would edit this file with the proper path it would work i guess!!

I'll try fiddle with it to see if I make any progress…

I don't have any such mounts in post-fs - both the Fold 3 working and Fold 4 non-working post-fs only have the first part with kiling the audio server - so it's not associated with the mounts you list…

Sure, I'm using it with my rooted fold 3
Edit : Just reading it wont work with the Fold4 , what a pity , too bad

so guys! this is so sad!!
JamesDSP is so bad and i miss V4A so much!
why does it work on Z Fold 3 with Android 12L and not on the z fold 4?
is it because of the snapdragon 8 gen 1 ?

It would take some expert with knowledge of how how Viper works. It checks for presence of the driver - which should be mounted by Magisk on boot - something is not clicking there.
I thought the above mounts in the post are not working, in which case it would be easily fixed - but it's not that, as I'vegchecked against the Fold 3.
Something else is causing it to detect drivers as not present - might be actually the Audio Modification Library is not working itself on the Fold 4 and not allowing the driver install as per the above shortcut.
Anyway - seems it'd be fixable - but it takes someone with knowledge of what the AML and Viper are supposed to be doing on Magisk mount - to check what's not working.

so we have to wait for a 64bit driver right?

oh no. did you try the 0.2.0?

It does work — wow! I wasn't aware of version 2…
Not everything works in it yet — but it works, processes the sound — in Legacy mode.

please check whether convolver and viper clarity works

Convolver — no, clarity — yes.
