Great. Your system dump is corrupted. Did an MD5 check and it matches.

heres a deodexed version of a different system dump: http://d-h.st/F4v
script hasnt been verified for flashing at all, but might give you something to poke around with (read dont flash it)
i dont have the phone yet, so havent been able to see if there were any issues with apks and jars that were deodexed

Interesting.. the boot animation is in: system\customize\resource\hTC_bootup.zip

you can always change the bootani path in /system/customize/CID/default.xml
but wont work w/o a data wipe though (usually changed in roms)

Thanks for the pointer. I seem to be inching closer to actually getting my hands dirty playing with some ROM guts.

Appears to be fine on my end.. is the zip corrupt or the data within? If its the zip I will reupload.

I don't believe it is flashable (OP can chime in). There is currently only two options for you if this isn't flashable:
Install the Stock/Rooted/Deodexed ROM in this forum.
Go to Fastboot, "fastboot oem lock" and the use the RUU to return to stock (RUU program is sticky on this forum).
If anyone can correct me on this, please feel free.

Then your best bet is to flash the only ROM currently available if you don't want to return to stock. It's deodexed so you can mod all you want.
I just flashed the RUU and am starting from scratch... I did something to mess up some widgets, etc. so I wanted to start over.

Are you able to Unlock after you Re-lock to RUU?

di11i kernel beta .01 (unsecure boot.img- root shell, adb remount) ext4 tweaks/init.d

This basically (for right now) the stock kernel image with some tweaks to init.
-unsecure boot.img-(perma- rooted adb shell)
-adb remount(mount /system r/w)
-init.d support added in for init scripts(survive after reboot)
-ext4 filesystem mount tweaks-/system/data/cache(faster I/O)
(Actually have a full ext2 version for,****s and giggles, but it boots into the encryption error screen, so cant release that. May have a fix though)
-mem and cache tweaks coming soon
still working on the actual kernel, will release that next, still have lots of work to do
boot.img MD5- fca41dba8f4699b67fd461a1632b65cf
MAKE BACKUP FIRST
You will not have issues if you wipe data, chances are youll be fine if you dont, but if anything starts acting up just wipe data, then install boot.img
This is the actual boot.img and for now has to be flashed with adb with these EXACT commands--
Code:
adb push boot.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 seek=3968 bs=4096 count=2048
reboot
#Thanks Diamondback and friends for offsets
This is not the ideal way to flash this, but i can not get the blob file to staging partition to actually write the image. Im pretty sure its an issue with the signature of the blob file, so if someone wants to pack this into a blob id be glad test it and then update the OP.
My primes been using this boot.img for a few days, along with one other. Flash at your own risk.

Great! I'm not the only one who as this problem. For what ever reason I too cannot get the blob to write.
I've tried running the blobpack -s to sign the blob but after trying to write it to the staging partition its a no go.....
EDIT: how are you working on the kernel if it has not been released yet?? JW, not trying to say your not but it would be cool if someone found a way to edit a compiled kernel.

True, I don't know how much they have changed since then. Surely they need to be releasing new source pretty quickly to be in compliance with the license. I don't know enough about that side of things though.
prime has a BLOBSIGN signature in the first 28 bytes of the blob files for prime.
you just need to copy those 28bytes from an existing blob file that works.
this is of course only working on a unlocked prime. then the BLOBSIGN signature is not checked, so anything can be pasted in front of it.
Rayman will update the packblob to include the signature later on.

Yes it flashed but later I realize non of my settings/changes took effect.
When I stated it work, I had took the stock kernel/initramfs from asus blob, extracted, made no changes at all, recompile like we talked about in our PM's then flashed it. It work but then after I made changes, recompiled. Non of my changes took effect.
Again Jermaine you have been a BIG help. and can only hope one day I can return the favor!!!

Flashing blobs does NOT always work. No idea why yet. Directly dd'ing the boot.img to the right place works BETTER than flashing a blob in some cases...
Asus really screwed up with this Unlocker thing....

Flashing them to staging seems to work perfectly for me. That's how I made my insecure boot.blob and flashed it. It doesn't matter whether you're on unofficial CWM or Official since if you start your updater-script with unmounting staging, it doesn't hurt anything if staging wasn't mounted. Then you can either dd the blob to mmcblk0p4 or you can directly flash it via:
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.blob", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p4");
I have not found an occasion where this didn't work. You need to make sure that you don't add any --cmdline parameters when you mkbootimg or you will get a bootloop. Staging is definitely the safest way to flash to any partitions on the Prime.

The kernel versions seem to be the same with the latest .15 build as the previous one. I wonder if they just recompiled the same source and that's why the host name changed to Mercury.
EDIT: I'm going to pack this kernel into a flashable blob and attach it here.

Hmm.. not sure whats going on but I did use this command
Code:
mkbootimg --kernel boot.img-kernel.gz --ramdisk newramdisk.cpio.gz -o newboot.img
To recompile the boot.img then used the new blobtoolsv2 to repack the blob
Code:
blobpack -s kernelblob blob.LNX newboot.img
I know staging is unmounted because I'm using your updater-script

if you copy the blob, while p4 is mounted to staging in cwm, you will have a problem when you reboot, as the filesystem umount, and that cause a small change to the mounted filesystem, to indicate it is umounted normally. and the p4 partition becomes invalid.
so it can easily become a problem if p4 is mounted.
at least thats how i experienced the problem when seen initially.

That's why I said to always add an unmount("/staging"); to the top of your script. The attached flashable zip works perfectly on the official CWM; staging is not mounted by default, but I told the script to unmount it anyway in case someone with the unofficial CWM tries to flash it. If it's already unmounted, the script just continues.
Anyone may use this as a template for consistently flashing a kernel to staging.

Hmm... That all looks good. What happens after you attempt to flash this and what changes did you make to the ramdisk?
EDIT: Hey, I just re-read your PM. It sounds like you're editing the wrong file in the ramdisk. To make an insecure boot image, you should be editing init.rc, NOT init.cardhu.rc.
Here's a great guide to follow. It's the same procedure for the Prime as the original Transformer:

Okay that makes sense. One f my changes was to default.prop for insecure boot.img
Code:
ro.secure=0
This did not show after I flashed. But I will try again in a couple hour's once my workload calms down... SysAdmin life is not easy...lol

LOL! I meant to say default.prop and not init.rc. I totally understand. I used to be a SysSdmin too. Now I moved more towards the networking side of things. Much more calm.

Would love to be on that side of the tracks. I'm banging my head against the wall right now trying to figure out how to implement Microsoft System Center Service Manager 2010 and on top of that one of our Citrix Broker boxes went down last night... Not a funny day at all. But I'll keep this thread about Android...for now....
No, unfortunately flashing a blob does not always do the same as dd'ing boot.img directly. We recently had a case were someone lost root access. the only way to recover was to directly dd a boot.img.
Flashing the SAME boot.img via blob did not work (nor did any other blob we tested)
So blob flashing obviously has some quirks....

HTC Desire X - Root

Servus...
I just rootet my new HTC Desire X by just following 3 Steps
1. Unlock the Bootloader using HTCDev website
2. Build a custom recovery image using the clockwork image builder, use the touch version (buggy but it works)
(signed recovery image can be found in "RUU_PROTO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.14.401.1_Radio_10.18.40.05U_1.09.45.201_release_284072_signed.exe" or just make a backup)
builder.clockworkmod.com
flash the recovery image using adb / fastboot
(fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
3. install Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip using the custom recovery image (cwm_su doesn't work)
androidsu.com/superuser/
REBOOT.... DONE
(couldn't put this thread where it belongs, there is no place for the HTC Desire X yet)
For all other users, you can download RUU_PROTO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.14.401.1_Radio_10.18.40.05U_1.09.45.201_release_284072_signed.exe (note that this board adds a space into the filename between 1 and 0) from one of these mirrors:

- hotfile.com/dl/174799524/42af8df/RU...5U_1.09.45.201_release_284072_signed.exe.html
have you tested it?
Can't do backup or find the .exe file?

EDIT: LOL, just found out there's another post here from witch you can download it ^^
@MaartenXDA please paste that link here.
You can extract from RUU_PROTO_......_284072_signed.exe by starting the installation and then extract rom.zip from the windows temp directory (its about 370MB)
Unzip rom.zip and take recovery_signed.img (there will be some unzipping errors, but recovery_signed.img is clean).
Then put recovery_signed.img into builder.clockworkmod.com, wait for it to build and download recovery.img.
Has anyone else done it successfully?
For all of you that just want to do the last steps, here is my build of recovery.img.
flash the recovery image using adb / fastboot
(fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
3. install Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip using the custom recovery image (cwm_su doesn't work)

Just a summary of _all_ steps to root your HTC Desire X, because it was a little bit of work to figure out all the steps:
1) Unlock the Bootloader using the HTCDev website: http://htcdev.com/bootloader (choose other supported devices in the drop-down list)
2) Download recovery.img two posts above this one) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32789024&postcount=6
3) Download Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip from http://androidsu.com/superuser/
4) Put recovery.img in C:\Android\ (just like in the unlocking guide)
5) Put Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip on the root of your sdcard (/sdcard/)
6) Start with vol.down and power to get into the bootloader
7) Choose fastboot
8) Start the command line again and goto C:\Android\ where adb.exe etc reside (just like in the unlocking guide)
9) Now type into the command line:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
10) on your phone choose bootloader
11) choose recovery
12) Now choose install zip from sdcard in the clockworkmod menu, locate the Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip and choose install.
13) Reboot

Yeah, but i'm still waiting for an own Desire X Forum. Some devices like the S3 mini have one - and they aren't even on the market yet.
not writable
Guys your method works. Phone looks rooted, but I cant access to as RW.
Second, that recovery.img doesnt work properly... Fix permissions etc doesnt work, screen size doesnt fit..
Sorry, but I cant declare that using above root tools doesnt help enough.

Isn't the RUU mentioned in this thread enough? Otherwise how can we do that?
Need a few people to see if the recovery works. If some can confirm it works, then I have a toolkit ready!
Also, can someone adb and type this in. Then upload the file?
cat proc/emmc > emmc.txt

Extracting boot image on HTC One XL no mtd??

I only started android kernel dev less than a week ago, but I have managed to successfully modify and update the kernel for my HP touchpad without too many issues.
My issue now is I'm trying to update the kernel on my HTC One XL (AT&T One X), and reading through guides like (h ttp://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Unpack%2C_Edit%2C_and_Re-Pack_Boot_Images), I need to make a copy of the boot image. However I can't find the boot image!?!?!
The following folder does not exist:
/dev/mtd
or
/proc/mtd
Am I missing something? I'm sure this is a total noob problem, but can't find a solution anywhere.
In my TWRP backup folder I have a 'boot.emmc.win' file, can I extract the boot img from this?
Any help would be great!!

:victory: that works!!!
However, now that I can see mounts, how can I copy the required image? For instance the output is:
#cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mmcblk0p23: 000....0 000....000 "misc"
mmcblk0p22: 00500000 00020000 "recovery"
mmcblk0p21: 00280000 00020000 "boot"
etc.
cat /dev/emmc/mmcblk0p21 gives me a file not found error.
There is a '21' folder under /dev/emmc? Assume this is the image??
Something along the lines of this should work: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096
Make sure the info is correct for your device.

[ROM] Stock ROM Base for Devs --- WORK IN PROGRESS

What is this?
These are pre-rooted Stock ROM Base's for Developer to use to create modified stock ROMs or for the average Joe to restore their device's to working order if they are stuck in a bootloop. You must have an unlocked bootloader and a working Custom Recovery to use this.
Downloads:
T-Mobile / Retail US - 139.11.6 - Odex ***Tested, will not go past the boot logo.
Instructions:
Put the .zip on your internal storage.
Boot up to your Custom Recovery of choice (example: Clockworkmod Recovery).
Make a complete backup of your device using the Custom Recovery, and store that backup on a computer or alternative storage.
Wipe data using the Custom Recovery.
Mount system using the Custom Recovery.
Format system using the Custom Recovery.
Install the .zip from your internal storage using the Custom Recovery.
Reboot and enjoy! (If it asks to disable recovery install, tell it not to.)
Thanks:
My testers.
The Firmware Team.
mhous33 for the base script/binary for the RAZR M DST ROM.
I'll try to get some more bases up since we now have the means to install them and have them working correctly.
Amazing!
Thanks alot man. Never hurts to have an extra backup on my Google Drive or something should the worst happen.
Flashing in 15 minutes or so, when it's done downloading.
THANK YOU for this!
I'll need the /tmp/recovery.log after the flash if anyone could provide it
Something isn't going right so I'll need it to see what isn't.

It's not booting, so I can't retrieve the file you need. Adb won't detect the device
Gonna have to restore my backup.
[edit] actually ADB is seeing it once I go to recovery... how do I retrieve the file you need?
figured it out, here is the file you requested: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/l2s290vdcokf38i/Ej6iIe2dqK
Extracted using adb while phone was in recovery, after flashing your file. Have to restore now =P

On it. download eta 20 mins
No luck. Uploaded the new recovery.log https://www.dropbox.com/sh/l2s290vdcokf38i/Ej6iIe2dqK
Let me know if you need any other files/logs off the phone.
would a copy of my nandroid backup help you at all?
[Breakthrough?] After flashing your ROM I did Advanced Restore and selected to ONLY restore System (from my backup) and I managed to boot! No FC or anything - seems to work perfect. I suppose that's where the problem lies? [sidenote: I always follow the instructions in OP for flashing your ROM i.e wipe data, mount system, format system, just thought I'd mention I'm not taking any shortcuts]
I dunno when I flash the ROM it does it a little too fast (under 5s?)... faster than it took my N4 to flash a 96MB Rom lol. I wonder if it's writing to system at all.
It did that for me on the first rom, I don't know if Matt put something in the build prop to differentiate it from the stock rom

Sounds like its not flashing to system at all
Shame the log isn't saying what is wrong with the ROM zip. Heck its not even showing it attempting to install the zip at all!
No sense.

Could it be a recovery issue? The updater script looks way different than what I usually see, normally the system is formated and flashed , sym links, permissions and finally the kernel is flashed

Once an OTA update comes out for any Moto X variant we'll have a much better idea of the META-INF folder as a whole. In the meantime everyone feel free to keep playing with it to try to get it to work right. Making small updater-script changes to re-upload the entire ROM.zip is a huge pain. Soon enough we'll have the Dev Edition and more Developers will be joining us to get everything squared away.
Thanks testers!

Can't turn off OTA notification

AKA "For the love of all that's good and holy, how do I stop this?"
I've deleted the FOTA folder, and when I get the notification (about 30 times a day), I long press for App Info, but the Show Notifications checkbox is checked and greyed out so I can't uncheck it.
I tried downloading Disable Service from the Play Store, but it reports that SystemUpdateService is disabled, yet I'm still getting this notification.
Clearly, this is quite frustrating. Thanks for any help.
How did you disable it? I have seen people say TI didn't stop it, and the hidden menu didn't do it. Those peeps had to do both.

Just delete system update.
Did you try disabling ota in the hidden Verizon menu? Dial ##3328873 + send + 000000, uncheck ota, then delete fota files in cache again and rename LGDMSClient.apk and the same for the .odex file to .bak. Renaming seems what's working for most people instead of freezing.
Reboot
That should take care of it for you.

Dang! I was looking for that info last week after I received my G3. I finally just took the OTA from 10B to 11C. Yeah, I can flash back but geez that would have been easier.

What is that app called that I need to rename?edit: found it
Total noob here but know enough to be dangerous. I'm rooted and unlocked and was able to turn off OTAs this way. Question I have is whether there are simple and straightforward instructions on downloading and installing the lastest KDZ updates available. I did download 11C (and decompressed with LG Firmware Extract for Win) but I'm lost as to the proper steps to take from here to make sure I don't brick my precious Any resources would be much appreciated!

The IMG files are not in the update zip. They are somewhere in that ota incoming thread. I can post the links later if you can't find them. I'm hosting the system. IMG and have the modem.img, not sure if I have the boot, probably.

I also get that I will place modem-11c.img and system.img in the same folder, then in TWRP, flash the zips. Is that it? I presume that I no longer really need teh KDZ I downloaded since that's basically in these files you're providing. Thanks again!
