Need Xoom WiFi boot.img - Xoom Android Development

Looks like the boot.img on the WiFi only model is slightly different. Flashed the rooted boot.img file and now I'm stuck at the Dual Core technology screen. Anyone have this available. All help greatly appreciated!
UPDATE
See thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12432218

Can someone post the stock xoom wifi dump of the boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, and userdata.img in case something happens?
Apparently it looks like its slightly different than the wifi+3g version. Also is the overclocked kernel file working posted by coolbho3000?

i need the answer too... i m comfused.

Alright I have a stock Xoom tablet now Just gotta figure out how to pull the boot.img file off. Any ideas and I'll do it ASAP.

No clue mate. From my knowledge you have to be rooted, or have the SDK on your pc. I think. Neither which are available as of now

So is the wifi only version able to be rooted as of now?

currently, yes. We need a new root method. Well I would not say a new "method" but their need to be some modifications done to the original rootboot img file. Shouldnt be hard for devs

Issue 1: Don't currently have root
Issue 2: No SD card access
But I did try it and got an access denied.

Think for the Xoom it would be from a windows command prompt:
adb shell cat /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/boot > c:\boot.img
I could be wrong but try it and see.

It's actually a Permission issue.
/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/boot: Permission denied

So someone with root needs to run it. Anyone wanna help out? Im not getting mine till tomorrow but by then I suppose you would have yours exchanged

That's actually the catch-22... can't get root because we don't have the right boot.img file. I think it's going to boil down to Motorola releasing a stock one.
If anyone is up for IRC chat - hop onto Freenode and room #Xoom

I can try if someone tells me what needs to be done. I tried copying it over to another folder in root explorer but no luck.

Update: Ran through the fastboot oem unlock in hopes that it would resolve the Permission Denied. It did not.

You'll end up with a (soft)brick

No luck
I also booted into fast boot, tried and still got no permission sometimes and no such directory some times... If some one will walk me through getting the img file I will gladly do so

how can I remove the softbrick, I saw this AFTER I tried to root and now I cannot even turn it off, just sitting on the Motorola Dual Core Technology screen.

ok I also now need to the stock boot.img from a wifi xoom. Can anyone help? I can flash it if someone can provide it please, if not I guess I will go exchange my xoom in the morning.

Whaha really Genius!
But rooting can't be far away now..... Because I don't think the Durex is sold out in the super market. I actually think they have a special offer...
It's precisely because of the lack of root access that I've held of unlocking my bootloader; I don't see any point of having to erase all my data and setting up my device when there's no pay-off in the form of root and custom ROMs
Yeah well you never know if SE change their minds and cancel the unlocking website
Better get your gift before Santa takes it back
I will try to convince Marc from MIUI to think about the Arc...
I don't think SE will change it's mind, but the longer you wait, the more adjustments you make on your device (well at least I do..). So that's why I unlocked the bootloader as soon as I had my Arc. Even though I had allready played with it. But what the h*ll, now I had to play a bit longer with it. I don't see the problem
They wont change their mind but the downside of unlocking is that you cannot update using SEUS
Hopefully SE will change that if you use stock firmware but have the bootloader unlocked

I don't see where that's a problem : if you unlock your bootloader, it's because you want to flash custom roms, isn't it ?
Who care about stock update when we get better functionnalities and often faster updates with all the leaks with custom roms ?

different image version

I sent my tablet off to get repaired after it was bricked. My new version is different when it boots than it used to be. the new build version number on my tablet is " Acer_AV041_A100_1.015.00_PA_CUS1 " and it is on kernel 2.6.39.4+. is this what others have? When i boot it now comes up with 2 acer logos one in the upper right and left. than changes to the normal center acer then android .

This is exactly what I've been waiting to see. If you can get adb up can you paste the output of adb shell cat /proc/cmdline ? The boot loader change may hint at Acer doing some work on the cause of the brick.

Probably do accessing that file to output. You could try adb root then try again but it'll probably deny that too. If you don't want to root that's cool I'll wait to see if I can pay for mine to get fixed then do it when I get it back.

try:
Code:
adb kill-server; adb root; adb wait-for-device; adb shell cat /proc/cmdline
If you are rooted and adb starts as root you shouldn't get permission denied. If you still do get permission denied give output of :
Code:
adb shell ls -l /proc
This will be quiet large, but we really only need to know the specific line like this:
-r--r----- root radio 0 2012-08-12 02:44 cmdline
And make sure that you aren't getting any messages like "Root isn't available in Production builds"
Thanks.

have you seen it start out with 2 acer logos when you are not rooted or unlocked? That was the first thing i noticed that was different.

I doubt it. I would be more interested to see if it's checking for root to change or disable something.
It only does it about once every other day though.

It happens to me too. Running BoneStock 1a. I have it set to deny and not prompt me and haven't noticed any difference whatsoever.
The phone app asking for root randomly seems like a dirty hack someone made and those tend to be sloppy. What if you could symlink the chmod target, or adjust the path variable to have it execute something else?
I am now pretty interested to see the command it's trying to run, lets turn on logging and see if it happens.
I have gotten it a few times, not since v1.0f but nothing I changed would make it stop, not sure what the hell it wants permission for and wy it's asking for it, but I also denied it.
I've also been getting it several times in the last few days.
I get it on my stock rom just after unlocking bootloader and installing supersu on launch day. Like others I just denied it. Haven't seen any side effects yet since then.

No... the Phone app. I haven't had any other system app request root access on any of my devices, it completely undermines the security platform.
If the Phone app is being granted root on a stock phone, that means that app is whitelisted for root access somehow. And wasn't there a recent Android vulnerability that allows you to alter the code of a signed APK without affecting the signature?
---------- Post added at 04:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 AM ----------
This is the command it is trying to run: chmod 666 /sys/devices/platform/mdm2_modem/msr_info
The mdm2_modem is public rx only, but would it be possible to change the app's PATH variable maybe and have it execute a different chmod since I can't tell if it is using the full file path to execute it.
Well my little newb investigation turned up nothing.
The Phone app is run as user "radio" uid 1001 which, unlike root, does have a PATH set to outside /system. Write access to /data/local/ would almost certainly give root but I'm sure that's probably known already.
Android bug 8219321 would have given root to original versions of The One running 4.1, but the Verizon version runs 4.2.2.
Oh well, obviously couldn't have been that easy.

Wouldn't chmod 666 make it writeable? That would be a sneaky trick is they put that request in there to check for root and change something. I feel like root = free tethering to Verizon lol.
I would think that there is a root exploit available for the one, but there is no point in using it right now because system is protected and the phone resets whenever you try to change system.

Yeah it makes it world writable which could be relevant depending on how that file is used by other processes. I'm sure there are others who have been at this longer so I won't waste my time looking for a unicorn.
And I think people would still like root even if they lose it on restart.
I'm getting this issue on a stock Rogers HTC One with root. Has anybody been able to gather the SU logs?

As was posted, it's trying to make a modem file writable. Fixing permissions might make sense. It also probably means that this is no big deal.

need help from someone who is s-off and not *TAMPERED*

ive got a dump from andy,whom is tampered.
now id like a dump from someone who is s-off,rooted,and NOT showing tampered in the bootloader,please

adb shell
su (if needed)

exit (exit again if needed)
adb pull /sdcard/mmcblk0p7
youll find a file named mmcblk0p7 in your adb folder. please upload somewhere and pm me a link. i have successfully changed my t mobile one from tamper free,back to *tampered*,and then back to tamper free again. i just need to make sure you vzw guys are the same
dont worry,this is harmless- just dumping a partition,not making any changes.

I can confirm that you need root to read mmcblk0p7. Permission denied otherwise. With a stock device, someone would have to be "in the know" with a root exploit thats being withheld to get at that partition.

You've done everything correctly. There is no need for adb pull, simply plug in your phone and mount it as a storage device like you would if you were going to add music to it or get pictures off. You will see the file in the root of the mounted volume.
Or, use a file manager on the phone to email the file to you, or upload to dropbox, ect.

thanks dspcap,i saw exactly what i expected.
since the revone tool no longer works on hboot 1.54+ im not sure if this will work or not,as i asume it is doing something very similar.
but if you want to try it,im pretty sure the worse that will happen is that tampered wont go away. ive flipped back and forth a few times on my phone(hboot 1.44) and i dont *think* anything bad would happen except for the failure to work. but at any rate,try at your own risk.
in the booted OS,in a shell,enter:
echo -ne '\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 bs=1 seek=4265988
then back out,and boot to bootloader. hopefully tampered is gone. give beaups a high five for telling me the command so yall didnt have to dump,hex edit, and dd the partition back.
anxious to hear if it works for you or not

but if you want to try it,im pretty sure the worse that will happen is that tampered wont go away. ive flipped back and forth a few times on my phone(hboot 1.44) and i dont *think* anything bad would happen except for the failure to work. but at any rate,try at your own risk.
in the booted OS,in a shell,enter:
echo -ne '\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 bs=1 seek=4265988
then back out,and boot to bootloader. hopefully tampered is gone. give beaups a high five for telling me the command so yall didnt have to dump,hex edit, and dd the partition back.
anxious to hear if it works for you or not

I really want to try this, but without any warranty if something goes wrong, I'm screwed.
Seems pretty safe to try though, so if no one else steps up I most likely will.
-- @scotty1223 would it be easier to flash the 1.44 revone htboot remove tampered then flash back to our stock 1.54 hboot?
EDIT: CONFIRMED WORKING!

just copy and paste so you dont mis-type the command
if i had a vzw version i wouldnt hesitate to test for you,i wouldnt have posted if i thot there was risk. but you never know,so the usual disclaimers. i have brought my tampered back a couple times now
im thinking of leaving the flag in place and hex editing what the tampered banner reads,lol

Now that would be an awesome idea!!!
I really like that!
would it matter if I am stock CID?
also you don't think the hboot matters?
trying to code above?
also are you able to make us a RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer
that some brave sole may be willing to test??
EDIT: CONFIRMED WORKING! Thank you so much Scotty!
SOO nice to finally get rid of that Tampered flag!
Code:
C:\apktool>adb shell
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *

IMO its not safe at all to flash an hboot that wsant really intended for your device,tho sonic has done it with no apparent consequences.
im not 100% sure what revones tool is doing,so its hard to guess what might happen. i dont know if hboot is asserting some write protections,despite being s off,or why exactly their tool does not work with 1.54 maybe some other firmware is preventing the tool from working,im not really sure.
in theory,the adb command is a bit simpler and more probable to work. if 1.54 is in fact asserting some write protections,then it will fail just the same,with no harm done.

[Needed] G4 H812 Rogers KDZ File

Hey guys,
So I attempted to root my G4 with the H811 firmware from T-Mobile in the States... Obviously now, I cannot boot into recovery (as far as I know) and only have access to Download Mode. I can, however, use the send_command to connect to the phone (Only in Download Mode).
However, I cannot access the storage device to upload the Rogers "rooted" img file. Using the information found here. Is there anything I can do right now? Seeing as this phone is literally my home phone and internet, nobody can get a hold of me.
I need to find a fix for this as soon as possible!
Thank you very much for reading.
EDIT: Just so everyone knows, I cannot use ADB because my system does not boot.
EDIT 2: http://i.imgur.com/nxNpzqt.png - Looks to be bricked entirely, unless this can be fixed?
EDIT 3: The phone as been sent away for repairs; warranty replacement inbound.
There is rooted Rogers firmware in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3135162
K get stock or rooted Rogers system img and try comands from and see if you can push it to phone and and install it

Thanks for your reply, what command do I use? Is there a tutorial?
I was trying for 2 days.. The issue is that it is caught in a boot loop and ADB would not recognize the phone.
Had to get the phone replaced as dead, no way to revive it!

Doesn't work because I cannot boot into Android, adb push does nothing... The device doesn't show as attached.
The phone as been sent away for repairs; warranty replacement inbound.
