ASKING IF ANYONE CAN COPY THEIR AUGUST BOOT.IMG, VBMETA, AND WHATEVER ELSE YOU CAN COPY, MAYBE THE RADIOS TOO IF POSSIBLE. AND POST IT HERE FOR EVERYONE
anyone reading this and considering contributing to the community please read the "how to root any n20 after bootloader unlock" thread for a list of partitions NOT to include if you decide to provide everyone with a full backup. contributions would be greatly appreciated. What better way to give back if you've found anything helpful here?

I've seemingly exhausted every thread here, looking for a guide, tools, advise etc. on how to make a usable (flashable) ROM dump of the OS, Radio, SPL... essentially a full back-up for a "Stock" US Cellular Titan (I know that there's no such "stock" ROMs for US Cellular... furthermore, that the current "stock" ROMs are old non-gps).
I have a replacement US Cellular Titan which is unaltered; therefore, I would like to copy it's "Stock" ROMs so that I can:
1- Have a back-up
2- Re-flash my old unit which I'm required to return to US Cellular
3- So that I can UL the originals here on XDA for others to have available
if needed.
Again, I neither know what tools are required, nor how to properly make a ROM Dump; so, IS THERE ANYONE THAT CAN HELP ME ON THIS? Any advise and/or resources that you guys can provide would help immensely!
I've PM'd the "usual suspects" here (i.e. GC, & DCD) but these Gurus are, i'm sure, flooded with requests and/or other commitments. PLEASE HELP in any way you can! THAnkS
UPDATE: OK, Found a good thread on this HERE with a nifty little application too! Please feel free to continue the discussion on this thread, though; ANY other methods or advice will definitely help! Now, How do we use these bin files and convert them into a flashable ROM?
Got a question.... Are you currently running the ROM your device was shipped with? If so pm me, I have a file I need to pass to you so you can help me compile your OEM ROM.
Can anyone post up the stock veim.dll? I am having a hard time getting it off my device. I made a thread in general about how to build the dll from the SYS folder, but this is a different request so I think I am justified in making another thread.. thanks!
Suggested Thread Idea(Sorry if in wrong section), if devs do not want this, could a mod please delete this? Thanks!
This thread is meant to relieve the load on devs and provide a source of ideas for them. No offense to devs, I'm not insulting your capabilities. Besides, I hardly know any programming.
Anyway, I'm thinking of collecting suggestions from the many people who make up this X10 mini developing community. I'm sure all of us would want to help as this benefits everyone. Also, some of us here have knowledge of Linux Kernel programming(although not in android) and could help. No questions are to be posted.
Here is an example of the format needed -
Kernel Unlocking - Fool the bootloader! <- This is the title.
Concept: Instead of trying to deactivate or skip the locked bootloader, is it possible to actually fool the bootloader into thinking the one you are trying to load is legitimate? Perhaps by imitating the properties of the kernel that the bootloader looks for, we could load a custom kernel onto the phone.
So, a question to devs - would you rather want or not want this? Thanks!

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.
maybe this will work?
im in the same boat here but as far as i can tell you need to unlock the bootloader with this
(search this unlock bootloader lg "m257" its the first thing that comes up in google im a new user and cant post links yet)
then use that to get twrp to get supersu on useing the zip
the problem is that the guide is very vague on how to get the commands to word, it basicly says get this and use it with no real explanation on how it is done.
anyone here has an LG M257, please dump the system.img

I have the dump of system.img, but I do not know how to upload it here. It seems too large.
Hello XDA,
I wanted to ask this question more specifically since I feel my last questions was too specific and maybe difficult?
Can I edit a stock rom? Like editing the recovery.img and the system.img, then flashing the phone with smart phone flash tools?(SP flash tools)
Can I do this on a rooted phone? Or does the stock rom have to be not edited in any way? Is there no way to pull certain apps from the apps folder?
Thanks
bump,
I was told to make a thread in this forum yet no one has even replied to any of my threads.
At this point, I may have to make a sense and post in every forum I can find until I a moderator comes to clean up my mess. I don't want to have to do that but I have nothing to lose and no one has replied back to anything I have posted on here.
If I don't see a reply on this thread or the other thread I made about this. I will make a thread in every forum.
Waited around for awhile but now its time be obnoxious. I will bump my other thread as well and just start hi-jacking other threads until mods ban me or someone answers me for once.
