GooglePlay Installation for Emulator (Marshmallow/Noughat) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Aug 28 (21 hours ago)
I have tried so many options/blogs/scripts to install GooglePlay for Emulator (running through Android Studio) but it never works. I have seen so many different errors
1. Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]
2. Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]
3. No space left on /system
Why is it so hard to install GooglePlay on Emulator, can someone provide steps or GApps that work with Marshmallow/Noughat.
Here's the gist of what I have tried :
1. Copy GApps from http://opengapps.org/ [ Platform: x86_64; Android: 6 & 7; Variant: full ]
2. Extract the zipped file to temporary folder and then extract following apks from it to another folder
* gsfcore-all/nodpi/priv-app/GoogleServicesFramework/GoogleServicesFramework.apk
* gsflogin-all/nodpi/priv-app/GoogleLoginService/GoogleLoginService.apk
* gmscore-x86_64/nodpi/priv-app/PrebuiltGmsCore/PrebuiltGmsCore.apk
* vending-all/nodpi/priv-app/Phonesky/Phonesky.apk
3. Try pushing these apks through this script
IMAGE_NAME=Nexus_5X_API_24 #Nexus_5X_API_23
emulator @${IMAGE_NAME} -no-boot-anim -writable-system &
adb wait-for-device
adb root
adb shell stop
adb remount
adb push PrebuiltGmsCore.apk /system/priv-app/
adb push GoogleServicesFramework.apk /system/priv-app/
adb push GoogleLoginService.apk /system/priv-app/
adb push Phonesky.apk /system/priv-app/
I would really appreciate any help !!

Hello and welcome to XDA Q&A section of the Forums.
In the .zip file you got from GApps, there should be a thing called "updater-script" located in the first folder then the subfolder of that and so on till you find it. In this script it tells your recovery what do you with the file rather than just smile at it . I guess you can say it is time for a human to do those steps manually instead (I guess you can say that).
If I helped, hit "thanks" .

Its not clear by your comments what you are suggesting, you mean to say that I should read this script "updater-script" and apply those steps manually ?

[Q] Some General Questions Regarding the editing of android.policy.jar

hello everyone
I have updated to kennethpenn's 4.5.91 Gingerbread Beta 4 (must say, it is truly a phenomally put together build !)
I have also noticed that many of the mods that i had applied to 1.8.3 have not been updated for 4.5.91, so i decided to make the changes myself.
Now, I have a pretty decent knowledge of Unix-based operating systems ( I have used Red Hat Linux, Ubuntu, SUSe Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, and now OS X) however, I would like to expand my knowledge to include Android.
The first one I attempted to do myself was the Wake on Volume Keys mod.
This is a very simple change to the android.policy.jar file, as you all well know.
For this, I used Windows XP, simply for the fact that I have 7zip and PeaZip installed on it. However, I can do all of this on OS X as well. The file archiver applications I have on OS X are:
1. The Unarchiver
2. Keka
I am going to list my method of applying this edit, and i would ask that someone with solid knowledge on this subject give me their feedback and guidance.
---------------------------------------------------------
My Method of editing android.policy.jar
---------------------------------------------------------
1. Using Root Explorer, I made a copy of /system/framework on my External SD Card
2. Mounting the Phone for USB Mass Storage on Windows XP that I have running in VirtualBox on my Macbook Pro, I moved the copy of the /system/framework directory to my Desktop
3. I downloaded smali-1.2.6.jar and baksmali-1.2.6.jar from code.google.com/p/smali/
4. I placed both of these .jar files in the copy of the framework-edited directory that I created on my Desktop
5. I renamed smali-1.2.6.jar to smali.jar and baksmali-1.2.6.jar to baksmali.jar for simplicity's sake
6. I moved the android.policy.jar file to /framework-edited directory on my Desktop
7. Using 7zip (I also have PeaZip, but for this, I used 7zip, if you think I should use PeaZip, please tell me) I extracted the files from android.policy.jar to end up with classes.dex and META-INF. I then moved classes.dex to /framework-edited so it is in the same directory as smali.jar and baksmali.jar
8. In Command Prompt, I entered:
Code:
cd C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\framework-edited
in order to be working from the proper location where my files are located
9. Now, having Command Prompt working in the proper location, I entered the following commands:
Code:
java -jar baksmali.jar -o classout/ classes.dex
to create a new directory within /framework-edited called /framework-edited/classout
10. I then opened the /classout directory, and navigated to /classout/com/android/internal/policy/impl/ and opened the file KeyguardViewMediator.smali with Notepad
11. I used [Ctrl] + [F] to locate the line:
private isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing(I)Z​
12. I then looked at the lines DIRECTLY below the above line, and following the Original Post on how to manually apply this modification, I removed lines:
0x18
0x19​
13. Upon removing these lines, I simply did a File -> Save As -> KeyguardViewMediator.smali and saved the file to my desktop
14. I [Cut] + [Pasted] the edited KeyguardViewMediator.smali file back to /classout/com/android/internal/policy/impl/ and replaced the original KeyguardViewMediator.smali file
15. With the edited KeyguardViewMediator.smali file in place, I went back to Command Prompt and entered the following commands:
Code:
java -Xmx512M -jar smali.jar classout/ -o new-classes.dex
To create a new file called new-classes.dex
16. Changing the name of new-classes.dex to classes.dex, I took the original META-INF file, and my newly created classes.dex files, and, using 7zip, created a new android.policy.zip archive
17. I renamed my newly created android.policy.zip to android.policy.jar, and transferred it to my External SD Card
18. Using Root Explorer, I navigated to /system/framework on my phone, and renamed android.policy.jar to 1122android.policy.jar.bac and [Copy] + [Pasted] my edited android.policy.jar to /system/framework
19. I then immediately powered off my phone, and rebooted into CWM Recovery, and cleared my Dalvik Cache, then rebooted the phone normally through CWM Recovery.
At this point, to my knowledge, I had successfully edited my android.policy.jar file and had manually added the Wake on Volume Keys modification, however, once the phone was fully booted and showing my lockscreen, I unlocked the phone as normal by sliding the slider to the right. As soon as the phone unlocked, I saw pop-ups for processes that had failed and were terminated. I'm not sure what the exact message the pop-ups had, but it was the normal pop-up message you get when a process force-closes. My only option was to click "Ok" so I clicked it, only to have another force-close pop-up.
Apparently, every single process on the phone had force-closed, BUT, the phone was waking when I press a volume key while the screen was off. I had no choice but to pull the battery out.
I decided to reboot into CWM Recovery and "install .zip from SD Card", Nottach's 1% Battery Mod / No Carrier Mod Uninstall Script
I installed Nottach's uninstall script because I hoped that it had an unmodified copy of android.policy.zip in it.
After installing the uninstall script, and rebooting the phone once again, I got to the lock screen, unlocked the phone, and found everything to be in perfect working order, just as before I edited anything,
But the Wake on Volume Keys mod was still applied!
So now, my questions / requests to all of you are:
1. Explain to me what I missed or did wrong that resulted in the force-closure of every single process on the phone prior to installing Nottach's Uninstall script
and
2. Educate me on the proper process that you developers use to apply small modifications such as this one to the android.policy.jar file, or any other related file on the phone for that matter.
My plan is now to change the color of the text on my lock screen (Clock, Date, and possibly Carrier) following this [Guide]
Any and all feedback is welcomed and greatly appreciated, as you will be helping me learn the beginnings of modding and developing
bump . . . . .
Perhaps this may help

[HOW-TO][TUTORIAL][WIP]DEODEX, BUILD KERNEL, BUILD CUSTOM ROM and MORE

Hi all,
In this thread, I will try to share the knowledge I have on deodexing, making custom ROMs, modifying initramfs, building kernel and much more.
Please check the below posts for each of these tutorials.
Hope this opens doors to many new ROM and Kernel developers.
NOTE: THESE TUTORIALS ARE WRITTEN FOR GT-I9100. WILL NOT WORK ON OTHER DEVICES. I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU MESS UP AND BRICK YOUR DEVICE OR ANYTHING ELSE. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Deodexing Stock Rom
For GINGERBREAD ROMS:
What you need to have:
xUltimate v2.3.3 - you can download it HERE (Thanks and Credits to Xeudoxus for this awesome app)
Rooted kernel with busybox
JDK installed on your Windows system
If adb is not available in your windows PC, in xUltimate folder open "jar" folder. You'll find adb there.
Extract stock app & framework folders and Deodex:
Connect your device to computer.
Start xUltimate (double-click on Main.exe)
Select option 1. (Pull /system/app)
Once option is done, select option 2. (Pull /system/framework)
In the same folder, now you'll see two new folders (origi_app, origi_frame)
Select option 3 in Main menu (Deodex /system/app)
Once its done, select option 4 in Main menu (Deodex /system/framework)
DONE!!
NOTE: If any apk/odex gives issues while deodexing, remove that corresponding apk and odex from origi_app folder and deodex again. (Mostly the apps which can be downloaded from play store might give errors.. ex: Maps, Voice search etc.)
Now you'll see two new folders done_app and done_frame.
Push deodexed app and framework to device:
Connect your device to PC in USB debugging mode.
Copy done_app and done_frame folders to root of sdcard (/sdcard).
Open Windows command prompt and type the below commands.
Code:
[LIST]
[*]adb shell
[*]su
[*]stop
[*]mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
[*]rm /system/app/*.odex
[*]rm /system/framework/*.odex
[*]busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
[*]busybox cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
[*]chmod 644 /system/app/*
[*]chmod 644 /system/framework/*
[*]mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
[*]sync
[*]reboot recovery
[/LIST]
In Recovery, Wipe Cache and Wipe Data/Factory reset.
Reboot.
Now you've deodexed app and framework.
For ICS ROMS:
For ICS Roms, the process is quite easy. (Thanks and Credits to jaydvn.)
Download the attached zip file.
Extract it on your windows PC.
Copy your /system/app to _app folder
Copy your /system/framework to _framework folder.
Run AutoDEOToolMain.bat
Follow the instructions.
deodexed jars and apks will be found in deodexed_APK and deodexed_JAR.
Push deodexed app and framework to device:
Connect your device to PC in USB debugging mode.
Copy deodexed_APK and deodexed_JAR folders to root of sdcard (/sdcard).
Open Windows command prompt and type the below commands.
Code:
[LIST]
[*]adb shell
[*]su
[*]stop
[*]mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
[*]rm /system/app/*.odex
[*]rm /system/framework/*.odex
[*]busybox cp /sdcard/deodexed_APK/* /system/app/
[*]busybox cp /sdcard/deodexed_JAR/* /system/framework/
[*]chmod 644 /system/app/*
[*]chmod 644 /system/framework/*
[*]mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
[*]sync
[*]reboot recovery
[/LIST]
In Recovery, Wipe Cache and Wipe Data/Factory reset.
Reboot.
Done.
Enjoy.
Building kernel
Okay. Let's learn how to build kernel for GT-I9100. There are many ways to build. I am just presenting here the way I build and make kernel.
NOTE 1: Follow the instructions exactly.
NOTE 2: Kernel is opensource. If you make any changes to it, you're expected to share your source. (Usually people share it over github )
NOTE 3: FLASHING KERNEL IS RISKY AND DANGEROUS. BE CAREFUL. BUILD AND FLASH ON YOUR OWN RISK.
What you need to have:
Ubuntu 10.04 and above (I use 10.04 )
ARM tool chain (Download HERE. Click on IA32 GNU/Linux TAR under Advanced Packages)
Samsung's opensource kernel for GT-I9100 (Download HERE. Go to Mobile->Mobile Phone-> Select I9100 (update 3 for Gingerbread and update 4 for ICS) and download the zip)
Setting up toolchain:
Extract the tar you downloaded(Suggestion: Extract to one folder where you can have everything. In my case /home/superatmos/build_kernel).
After extracting, you'll see a folder named arm-2010q1. Inside there will be many folders (ex. bin, lib and so on.)
Folder structure will be: /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/arm-2010q1
Setting up kernel:
Extract the zip you've downloaded from samsung's opensource.
You'll find two zips.
Extract GT-I9100_Kernel.tar.gz to /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/
Folder structure: /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel
Setting up initramfs:
Samsung's zImage is divided into two parts: Opensource kernel (which you downloaded from samsung's website) and initramfs (which is root file system to boot up the device).
You can extract initramfs from your zImage using the below mentioned links (Credits and Thanks to Chenglu) Original Thread: HERE
To extract initramfs from Gingerbread zImage: HERE
To extract initramfs from ICS zImage: HERE
Folder structure: /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/initramfs
Now the entire setup is ready. Let's start modifying kernel configuration.
Setting up kernel config:
For Gingerbread:
Go to /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/arch/arm/configs folder.
Copy c1_rev02_defconfig file and paste it in kernel root folder (/home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/).
Rename c1_rev02_defconfig to .config in kernel root folder.
Now open Makefile which is in your kernel root folder(/home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/).
Modify the below lines (I guess line 195 and 196).
For ICS:
Go to /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/arch/arm/configs folder.
Copy u1_defconfig file and paste it in kernel root folder (/home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/).
Rename u1_defconfig to .config in kernel root folder.
Now open Makefile which is in your kernel root folder(/home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/).
Modify the below lines (I guess line 195 and 196).
Code:
ARCH ?= arm
CROSS_COMPILE ?= /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/arm-2010q1/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
Save and close.
Modifying kernel configuration:
Now open .config file(which you renamed). If its not seen, it might be hidden. Go to View->Show hidden files and there you go.
Do the below things:
Adding local version:
Change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=" " to anything you like. I add this way:
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-I9100-superatmos"
Adding initramfs path:
You need to let kernel know the path from which it needs to take initramfs.
Change CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE=" " to ../initramfs (In this tutorial it's the path. If you had copied anywhere else, give the path properly).
Enough for now. Once you get experience, you can modify many configurations as per your liking and save. This configuration can be changed by GUI too with the command make menuconfig.
The Important part: Building the kernel:
For Gingerbread:
Open terminal.
Go to path /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/
Type make.
For ICS:
Open terminal.
Go to path /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/
Type export USE_SEC_FIPS_MODE=true
Type make.
THAT'S ALL. YOUR zImage is ready and is available in /home/<your_name>/build_kernel/GT-I9100_Kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage.
Install the zImage on the device:
Go to the path where zImage is present and type the below line in command line.
Code:
tar cvf I9100_kernel.tar zImage
Flash the tar using odin.
DONE. CONGRATULATIONS. NOW YOU'VE YOUR OWN KERNEL.
Give me your feedback so that I can improve this tutorial. And post here about how your build went. All the best.
Making custom ROM
Let's move on to make a custom ROM.
Inputs/Feedback/Suggestions are more than welcome. Lets improve this tutorial together for the betterment of the android community.
Steps involved in making a custom ROM:
Getting the system dump from the device.
Deodexing app and framework folders.
Creating various mods by modifying framework and system files.
Modifying build.prop and adding tweaks.
Making META-INF folder and writing an updater-script (edify scripting).
Signing the ROM and making a flashable zip.
Folder Structure:
Before going forward, let's follow the below structure folder to make the tutorial more understandable.
Let our ROM name be CustomROM. The folder structure will be C:\Users\<your name>\CustomROM.
Let's move step by step. Are you ready??
Getting the system dump from the device
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Make sure USB debugging is ON and connect your device to the PC.
Open command prompt on your windows PC and go to CustomROM folder path.
Type adb devices. You should be able to see the device detected. (If not check environmental variables whether adb is in system path or not. If not present, add the adb path.)
Type the below command to get the dump of system folder.
Code:
adb pull /system system/
Now inside the folder CustomROM, you should be able to see system folder with many folders like app, etc, framework etc inside.
Done with first step.
Deodexing app and framework folders
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Look HERE how to deodex app and framework folders. Copy the app and framework folders to xUltimate folder, rename them to origi_app and origi_frame and follow the given link to deodex.
NOTE: After deodexing, merge origi_app folder with app folder under C:\Users\<your name>\CustomROM\system\app and origi_frame with framework folder under C:\Users\<your name>\CustomROM\system\framework.
Creating various mods by modifying framework and system files
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay. This the section where your hardwork, innovation and talent comes in. You can use the mods available already, create your own mods, port various mods from other devices and so on.
Below is a list of various mods which can be ported on to GT-I9100. All the credits go these respective thread owners. Thanks to them.
Lidroid 14 toggle mod
Extended power menu with/without header
CRT Off Animation & SIP Over LTE/HSPA
Swipe to remove notifications
NOTE: Let me know more mods with links so that I can add here.
Modifying build.prop and adding tweaks
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay. This is one of those files where you name your ROM(to be visible in settings. ) and add many tweaks.
To name your ROM (to be visible in settings), change the below code.
Code:
ro.build.display.id=CustomROM v1.0
Check the below links for many other tweaks. All credits go to respective thread owners. Thanks to them.
build.prop tweaks by TheFrankenstain
build.prop tweaks by dhlalit11
Making META-INF folder and writing an updater-script (edify scripting)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Once you're done with all the modifications, mods and additions, its time to create META-INF folder and make the updater script. Once the user flashes the ROM zip, this is the script that runs and does everything written inside the script. PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH THIS. TAKE REFERENCE FROM OTHER (SAME DEVICE) ROMS' UPDATER-SCRIPT. (In this case, take reference from other GT-I9100 roms.)
Check the below links for tutorial and how-to on writing edify script and making updater script. All credits go to respective owners of the threads. Thanks to them.
Edify Scripting, Making Flashable ZIPs, ZIP Signing & Key Creation
Edify Scripting Notes
How to Write an Updater-Script with Edify Code
Edify Installation Script Syntax's
NOTE: system folders path, boot/kernel partition path, modem partition path and so on are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT for DIFFERENT DEVICES. Check the partitions for your device properly, carefully and then work on updater-script. TAKE HELP OR REFERENCE FROM OTHER ROM DEVELOPERS FOR YOUR DEVICE.
Lets move on to last step. Making a signing and making a flashable zip.
Signing the ROM and making a flashable zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Make sure, now you should be able to find two folders (META-INF and system) inside C:\Users\<your name>\CustomROM.
Check in THIS thread for test signing your ROM. It WORKS with GT-I9100.
or Check THIS thread to create your own signing key and certificate.
Now you're done with making a custom ROM. Hope to see more custom ROMs from many users.
Give me your feedback so that I can improve this tutorial. And post here about how your custom ROM making went. All the best.

You're quite fast Updated Deodexing and Building kernel section..
Great thread Superatmos. I'll definately have a go at this.
Quick question ? Am i right in assuming that although your tutorial says to connect your device this line from xUltimate seperceeds that ?
"Alright xUltimate has been updated to v2 What this means is that you do not need your phone connect to your computer to deodex. So you can just manually place the .odex files in (\origi_frame\) and (\origi_app\) and it will deodex. You can also transfer the .odex files from your phone like the last version."
where do I get the zImage to extract the initramfs from? I can't seem to find the zImage on my phone or in the source anywhere.
Great
Very useful.. Added to my favorite.
Thank's man, i'll read that

Click to collapse
Connect your device to the PC and double click Main.exe inside xUltimate folder. Follow the instructions you see from then. Its quite self explanatory.
If you already have origi_app and origi_frame folders, then just double click on Main Skip.bat.

Use ktool (available on market.. compatible with I9100) and click on Dump current kernel. You'll find it on sdcard.
One more way is when you download firmware from sammobile.com, just extract the file and you'll find zImage inside it.
Nice thread,
I m waiting from long time.
Thanks for your work.

[ROOT] LG Optimus L9 P760 P765 P768 P769

Follow thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173465
First of all , I'm not responsible for any damage..
Of course that's a rough explanation(i really need to hit the bed) but I hope you get the idea and someone will create more clearer and friendly instruction/guide/how-to/whatever.
When flashing L9 , LG App extracts files into C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone ,
LGP769_AP[6].bin (contains /system partition which includes hdcp.sh) and that can be easly modified(image) and replaced during flashing process.
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/
adb push rooting.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/rooting.sh

Downloading 10g kdz now. Will post back after I try to work this out. Thanks alot dude.
@lelus,
I am old dos buzz, so looking at the hexediting done by you in the BIN file, I can say that I am getting some hints.
You are suggesting to quietly replace the BIN file, in the middle of flashing KDZ file (when it is extracted to following folder), right?
C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\LGP769_AP[6].bin
The question is at which point the BIN file is to be changed? I still am confused with the sequence of BIN file replacement, scripts and files pushed via ADB. When these procedures are to be done? before flashing or after flashing?
I get hint that, you have modified BIN file to bypass the script file "hdcp.sh" which is used by LG Tool while flashing and instead of that, you are instructing to push+execute modified script "/data/local/tmp/rooting.sh". This new script is added in the beginning of BIN file, does that mean it will be executed everytime we reboot the phone? I may be wrong, just wanna clarify.
I dont have P769 device (good for me ), else I would have try that by now.
You can push the files and set permissions.
Flash your phone once to copy LGP769_AP[6].bin (it goes up to [10] and takes some time to extract the files, there should be enough time) from C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\ to some location.
Modify LGP769_AP[6].bin with a hex editor
Flash you phone once again,just like before you'll see lg flash tool decompressing files into C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\, when you see it done with LGP769_AP[6].bin copy/replace original with modded file, like before there should be enough time for it. Phone should be rooted after reboot.
hdcp.sh is setuid root and is executed at boot
Re: root p769 v10g and possibly other variants
Im very new to rooting. I've only rooted one phone(lg optimus p509). I now have my fancy new p769 and want some superuser action. I've been doing a lot of reading, and frankly, im worried about bricking or screwing up my new phone! When the more indepth description of your new found genius is released, could you please include details on exactly how to keep my phone safe and unbricked..THANKS!

As you say you are very new, I advice do not try this method at the moment. its very serious and you may brick your phone.
OK. My phone now rooted. But I only get root in adb shell only. Other root required app in phone don't popup Superuser dialog. My app cannot gain root access even I set "Automatic Response" to "Allow". Any Idea?
My phone firmware is p768f V10D, hdcp.sh is in LGP768_AP[5].bin. For other model I think your method should work if you can find proper file to edit (with hex edit).
Ha. Finally work. I replace su and Superuser from their website (After trial and error I don't know what the problem at first). I'm not sure if improper edit .bin file will brick your phone. So wait for some dev to confirm it. If you're not familiar with Hex editor I don't suggest you do this for now.
This may make me sound stupid, but could someone please post a clear set of directions to follow for this method. I think I understand it, but this is my only phone at the moment, and I don't want to screw it up because I swapped up a couple of steps.
For people who want to root LG L9 ICS Phone, please follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173465
The method in this thread lack some steps to clean out rooting staff and script
For those who interest, below are the steps I did to root my phone from Lelus post info.
*** Please read it carefully and understand every step before you try. I cannot help you if you brick your phone. And please note that I'm not a android dev and these steps work for Lelus P769 10G and my P768f 10D. It should work in all variants but I'm not guarantee. ***
0. Find your KDZ at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107971
1. Manually extract my kdz with LGExtract 0.2.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566532
2. Copy kdz (my file is V10D_00.kdz) and LGExtract.exe to C:\root\ , In command prompt just run
C:\root>LGExtract.exe -kdz V10D_00.kdz
3. You got V10D_00.cab
4. Extract cab with 7z or other zip program that can handle .cab (Google for it if you don't have it yet.) you got 2 files. LGP768.dll and V10D.wdb
5. Extract wdb with following command
C:\root>LGExtract.exe -wdb V10D.wdb LGP768.dll
*** don't forget my model is P768, you should change it to match the file you got ***
6. You'll found extracted files in BIN directory. After this step use your favorite Hex edit to search for hdcp.sh . I found it in LGP768_AP[5].bin. If you copy text from hex edit it look like following
# hdcp.sh
#
# [email protected], [email protected] , [email protected]
#
# HDCP sh file
#!/system/bin/sh
if ls /persist/mhl/key.bin ; then
echo "alreay exist" > /data/mhl.log
/system/xbin/hdcp-init 1 3 >> /data/mhl.log
echo "step 1 : hdcp on" >> /data/mhl.log
else
if ls /persist/en_hdcp.bin ; then
rm /persist/en_hdcp.bin
fi
echo "not exist" > /data/mhl.log
fi
7. In your hex editor, try to edit that file to following
#!/system/bin/sh
/data/local/tmp/rooting.sh
#.com , [email protected]
#
# HDCP sh file
#!/system/bin/sh
if ls /persist/mhl/key.bin ; then
echo "alreay exist" > /data/mhl.log
/system/xbin/hdcp-init 1 3 >> /data/mhl.log
echo "step 1 : hdcp on" >> /data/mhl.log
else
if ls /persist/en_hdcp.bin ; then
rm /persist/en_hdcp.bin
fi
echo "not exist" > /data/mhl.log
fi
*** for those who not familiar with Hex edit you must edit both left (HEX) and right side (TEXT) of editor because some characters is not on keyboard (ex. ENTER, just type 0a in left side editor to make ENTER key).
8. Trial and error until your copy text look like code above (you can copy your edited text from hex editor to text editor to examine it). Then save your file.
9. Next step is download all required file from Lelus link (or from my root.7z) and place them in C:\root
10. In command prompt run
cd C:\root
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/
adb push rooting.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/rooting.sh
*** You can use adb.exe from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344 thread if you don't install android delveloper tools
11. All files should upload to your phone. After this step try to flash your normal unextracted kdz. You should open C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone while flashing your rom. After kdz flash program show about 8% progress you should see that there are extract .bin files in that directory. Just quickly copy your edited .bin file (only the file that contain hdcp.sh script) and replace extracted file with it. *** you should wait for flash program to finish extract your file before replace it. ***
Read about how to flash your phone at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344
12. Done. You phone reboot with Superuser app install. If you have any problem like me that Superuser app don't popup to ask permission, please download latest version from http://androidsu.com/superuser/. I also upload updated files in root.7z below.
13. From Lelus' suggestion : After rooting I would probably suggest
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/rooting.sh
adb shell touch /data/local/tmp/rooting.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rooting.sh
Thanks Lelus for sharing this, :good:
Edit : Add updated Su, Superuser, LGExtract.exe, hex editor image and rooting.sh
Good one artit.
Do you think all LGP768_AP[5].bin (or other variants) are the same file (so we can uploaded a modified one and everyone can use it)?
Would this be a universal way of rooting all LG phone?
Thank You Lelus!
If this works everyone should click the "Thanks" button on Lelus' post.

No. All bin files will be different since it holds the partitions and files that are loaded on the devices.
What I means is within the same variants, would it be the same kdz file downloaded? Then we can upload one bin file corresponding to each kdz file?

Welldone! Artit! Thanks a lot.
For this same above process I have made a quick and small batch file of KDZ extraction tool and it keeps LGP768_AP
[*].bin files in single folder for further use.
By the way, when I looked for hdcp.sh in P760V10I, I found hdcp.sh in LGP760_AP[6].bin exactly as mentioned by Lelus. It seems the location of this text is different in BIN file and when extracting it goes to any piece of BINs, not always in 6th piece.
EDIT: Are you using Offline Flash method? Or online?

I think you have a little problem because of the recovery. If you only deleted the Play Store apk, go HERE and install the apk.
The play store installed by APK crashes all the times or doesn't download any soft or update

Try clearing your cache via recovery or deleting Play Store and Google Play services data in Applications.
You don´t have a TWRP or CWM recovery so that makes so much harder to help you since idk how the stock recovery is.
I already wiped cache and user data. I thought that make lost my play store. From this CM11 Gapps zip, I moved these 4 files to your phone storage: "GmsCore.apk", "GoogleLoginService.apk", "GoogleServicesFramework.apk" and "Phonesky.apk" to /system/app/ That doesn't solve as play store crashes again and again

This is not done this way... Which apks did you delete the first time? Not all apks goes to system/app, some of them goes to system/priv-app and they need to set specific permissions, that´s the main reason why it is not working to you.
Here the content of /system/priv-app
HTML:
http://pastebin.com/9e2W9it3
Phonesky.apk is not present
and here the content of /system/app
HTML:

You can see that GoogleLoginService.apk doesn't have tthe good right I corrected it with a chmod 644 on this APK but that did'nt solve the PB.
Thanks

OK I Found and solve my problem
First I uninstalled the ineffective Google Play Store
In SDK package of Android, there's a little tools "aapt" which gives you information about the version:
Code:
#~:./aapt dump badging GoogleServicesFramework.apk
package: name='com.google.android.gsf' versionCode='19' versionName='4.4.4-1288895'
sdkVersion:'19'
targetSdkVersion:'19'
#~:/aapt dump badging GoogleLoginService.apk
package: name='com.google.android.gsf.login' versionCode='19' versionName='4.4.4-1227136'
sdkVersion:'8'
targetSdkVersion:'17'
#~:/aapt dump badging GmsCore.apk
package: name='com.google.android.gms' versionCode='5089038' versionName='5.0.89 (1307510-038)'
sdkVersion:'9'
targetSdkVersion:'19'
I did these commands in a terminal on my linux workstation, after exported the APK files from my /system/priv-app folder was in my phone.
So, I downloaded com.android.vending-4.4.22-80240022-minAPI8.apk as I didn't find the 4.4.12 version, and I copied it on my phone SD card with the version com.android.vending-5.3.5-80330500-minAPI9.apk. Then I did the following command :
Code:
adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # mount -o remount,rw /system
[email protected]:/ # cp /storage/sdcard1/com.android.vending-4.4.22-80240022-minAPI8.apk /system/priv-app/Phonesky.apk
[email protected]:/ # chmod 644 /system/priv-app/Phonesky.apk
[email protected]:/ # reboot
The Google Play Store was in my phone but I can not connect as this is an old version. That's mean under Android 4.4.4 the main directory is not more the /system/app but /system/priv-app. I did the difference with other phone under 4.4.3. There is no /system/priv-app folder. I read on internet the /system/priv-app is the directory where there are the system applications need special access.
For have the Play Store connecting, I installed com.android.vending-5.3.5-80330500-minAPI9.apk from Andriod throught the internal file explorer, accepting unknown source when the system asked.
:silly:That's great because I didn't wipe one more times, I didn't pass throught the recovery, and the system told me that Google Play Store was updated
I learn a lot, enjoying lot of times. (not true).:angel:
Thanks for your support anyway and sorry for my poor english

I am glad you sorted out the problem. The PrebuiltGMSCore.apk goes always in system/priv-app , save it for the next time.
What you did is great, and is what the developers try to say users, giving a try and trying to get the problem solved by yourself is the best way to do.
Finally I did not help you, you solved it!
Now that this trouble is solved, @dubis22 next time you want to ask something like this go to this place here. It is where you have to ask if is not related to a specific phone

[GUIDE] How to make a custom android rom with DragonFace.

Whats sup guys?I been using dragonface to make custom roms for my android device.So i decided to make a guide showing you how to make your own.Enjoy.Make sure to thank me! alright lets get started
Basic Requirements: - Dragonface V2.2.0 V2.2.3 (download here in this Forum)
- Dragonface Tutorial, and knowledge of the basic functions (download here in this tut)
- Windows Explorer
- Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.6.9.html)
- ROM you want to modify
- Phoiexcard
If additional tools are requiered, they are mentioned in the regarding Instruction.
Common Steps for all modifications: STEP 1: extract your ROM (*.img) with Dragonface
STEP 2: change to Windows Explorer
ATTENTION: don't shut down DragonFace or copy the needed directories and
files some where else if you want to work "offline" (Directories: CPFOP, fsop -
Files: sysconfig.lhs), because DragonFace erases everything while shuting
down
STEP 3: Save the modified ROM with Dragonface
ATTENTION: If you worked "offline", do first Step 1, and then replace the
created Directories/Files with your modified
STEP 4: Flash your ROM (.img) with the Onda Suite
So let`s start.
PS.: If you try your own modification, it would be good to make only one after the other, and test between two modification. This makes it easier to solve problems when it´s not working like you except it, because you know what causes the problem.
HowTo - Increase the available space for your Apps (Firmware V1.0.0 - V2.1.3 all Versions)
1. You have done Step 1&2 in the first post
2. Now navigate to the following directory with the Windows Explorer ( must be set to show hidden Files/Directories!)
c:/User/..your Username../AppData/Local/Temp
3. Find the file sysconfig.lhs
4. Open it with Notepad++
5. Navigate to the following:
;------------------------------>mmcblk0p8/nande
[partition]
name = data
size = 4194304
user_type = 0x8000
6. Now change the value of size to the space you want
The current value of 4194304 stands for 2GB, that means you have to multiply 2097152 by the amount of GB you want to have for your Apps
for example: 6GB = 12582912
7. Save sysconfig.lhs
8. Save .img in Dragonface
9. Flash your ROM - Done!
Her is a link to a video tutorial (in chinese): http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XODEzODEwNzQ4.html&usg=ALkJrhhE_ACHQznY8ibrYYK7wMCYzcWCJg
Since the test version of Android 5, there is no seperat app partition in the firmware anymore.
HowTo - PreRoot your ROM (Firmware V1.0.0 - V2.0.2 all Versions)
1. You have done Step 1&2 in the first post
2. Now navigate to the following directory with the Windows Explorer
.../Dragonface_2.2.0/CPFOP/bootfs/skel
3. Find the file init.rc
4. Open it with Notepad++
5. Insert after Line 293:
su root
chown root root /system/app/superuser.apk
chown root root /system/xbin/su
chown root root /system/xbin/daemonsu
chown root root /system/bin/.ext/.su
chown root root /system/etc/.installed_su_daemon
chown root root /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
chown root root /system/etc/init.d/99SuperSUDaemon
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/daemonsu
chmod 0777 /system/bin/.ext
chmod 6755 /system/bin/.ext/.su
chmod 0644 /system/etc/.installed_su_daemon
chmod 0755 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d
chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d/99SuperSUDaemon
chmod 0644 /system/app/superuser.apk
chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
6. Save init.rc
7. Now navigate to the following directory with the Windows Explorer
.../Dragonface_2.2.0/fsop/system
8. create the directories and place or replace the needed files if not already present (check filesize, paths and files see
Step 5)
Download needed files here: https://mega.co.nz/#!XU5EFaBK!9ZFnDrzJnlGWoMOISkzQ-dczBKUB6cM8O3aswEjI2IY
Attention: Windows Explorer is not able to create the directory /system/bin/.ext, because it doesn't like the
leading dot.
So open "Command Prompt" and type mkdir .ext to create the directory (navigate before to ..system/bin)
9. Save .img in Dragonface
10. Flash your ROM - Done!
HowTo - PreRoot your ROM (Firmware V2.1.0 - V2.1.3 all Versions)
Step 1 - 10 are the same, only change:
Step 5:
chmod 0755 /sbin/busybox (Instead of: chmod 0755 /xbin/busybox)
Important: If you reopen a prerooted ROM with Dragonface, you have to recreate the .ext folder again and place .su again in it. During the extracting the .ext folder disappears due the restrictions of Windows. Saving without recreating breaks the prerooting!
HowTo - Theming your system:
The following instructions are made for the new V2.1 Firmware and should work with all Versions.
Indroduction: now we start modifying existing APPs. In the first step there are HowTo´s which can be easy done without using any app tools. The simple reason for that is, as long as we don´t take away or add graphics inside an app, and only modify them, for Android everything is fine. When we start to add or remove files inside the app or we want to change the behaviour of an app or add Features, for example in the Settings menu, we will need to de- and recompile and sign the app, ortherwise it won´t work. But this will come later.
Change the default Wallpaper:
additional needed programs: WinRAR
1. First find a Wallpaper you like with a Resolution of 2048*2048 and .jpg format, and save it to your computer
2. Rename the Wallpaper to default_wallpaper.jpg
3. Do the steps 1&2 in the first Post
4. Navigate to fsop/system/framework and find: framework-res.apk
5. Open it with WinRar and navigate to the folder drawable-nodpi
6. Now insert your Wallpaper with drag´n drop
Attention: There is now a Window popping up and asks you what to do. Choose under "COMPRESSION
METHOD" on the left side the option "SAVE".
When you look on WinRar you see that the pictures aren´t compressed, so just leave them
uncompressed.
7. Close WinRAR and you are done!
8. Save .img in Dragonface
9. Flash your ROM - Done!
Change the Wallpaper on the LockScreen (Firmware V2.1.0 - V2.1.3 all Versions)
additional needed programs: WinRAR
1. First find a Wallpaper you like with a Resolution of 2048*2048 and .jpg format, and save it to your computer
2. Rename the Wallpaper to wallpaper_03.jpg
3. Do the steps 1&2 in the first Post
4. Navigate to fsop/system/priv-app and find: JuiKeyguard.apk
Alternativ, on a running system, copy JuiKeyguard.apk to your PC, make the changes descriped in the next
steps and copy the modified apk back to the tablet. Don't forget to set the right permissions for the apk.
5. Open it with WinRar and navigate to the folder drawable-nodpi
6. Now insert your Wallpaper with drag´n drop
Attention: There is now a Window popping up and asks you what to do. Choose under "COMPRESSION
METHOD" on the left side the option "SAVE".
When you look on WinRar you see that the pictures aren´t compressed, so just leave them
uncompressed.
7. Close WinRAR and you are done!
8. Save .img in Dragonface
9. Flash your ROM - Done!
When you chance the Lockscreen Wallpaper direct on the tablet (already running system), wipe the Dalvik Cache, otherwise the Wallpaper won't change.
Change the icons in the Statusbar
additional needed programs: WinRAR
Paint.net (optional)
1. Do the steps 1&2 in the first Post
2. Navigate to fsop/system/priv-app and find: JuiSystemUI.apk
3. Open it with WinRar and navigate to the folder drawable-xhdpi
4. Look for the icons you want to change and notice the resolution
Optional: you can edit the icons by using Paint.net
5. Replace the icons you want with drag´n drop or replace the icon with an already existing in the folder (make a duplicate and rename the duplicate to the correct filename)
THEY SHOULD HAVE THE SAME RESOLUTION AND MUST BE IN .PNG FORMAT!
DON`T ADD OR REMOVE ICONS, ONLY REPLACE THEM USING THE CORRCT FILENAME - OTHERWISE YOU
CORRUPT THE APP
IF YOU WANT TO ADD OR DELETE ICONS OR ADD NEW FEATURES YOU HAVE TO DE- AND RECOMPILE IT
Attention: There is now a Window popping up and asks you what to do. Choose under "COMPRESSION
METHOD" on the left side the option "SAVE".
When you look on WinRar you see that the pictures aren´t compressed, so just leave them
uncompressed.
6. Close WinRAR and you are done!
7. Save .img in Dragonface
8. Flash your ROM - Done!
Enjoys and press Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A83T
I have tried using Dragon Face for A83T image file. But looks like I am stuck.
The Software does unpacking properly. But during packing image, I am not sure what goes wrong, the initial Green Progress bar of Flashing Firmware also does not show up in the device.
I have in fact tried - unpacking stock firmware and packing the firmware without making any changes to the Image.
It fails!
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
bumping this old thread trying to root this POS irulu tablet I got the firmware image rooted and resaved
flash it but it hangs at the pre-boot splash
edit: I am pretty sure its either a int.rc or su binary problem, if I flash just the stock boot/env it boots
so there is something in the init.rc it doesn't like
here is my init rc
https://pastebin.com/NwZ9ntEB
after hours of monkeying about with it I am pretty sure its a issue with dragonface
any attempt to modify int scripts results in it hanging on splash, possibly some form of boot image checking
I can modify system all day long but I can't touch the boot partition
I don't have the capability to build a generic twrp image for the A33 so I can't even get to a decent recovery
Bringing this thread back to life, is there a way to set the default launcher through file manipulation (as with the above tutorial) rather than with ADB or in the Android Settings app? I've been searching, but haven't found any good information.
Edit: Nevermind, it was an issue with the default launcher and possibly pheonixcard. Got it resolved
