Samsung Galaxy S3 Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script
WHAT UKC DOES
The script cleans the left over files of a kernel, to prevent issues or compatibility problems when switching between kernels, kinda like Ccleaner for windows.
It does a cache wipe / dalvik cache wipe and a few other operations, basically it does the maintenance job for you, no need to manually do those tasks before flashing a new kernel.

DON'T FORGET TO SAY THANKS TO Mecss AND MadMurdoc !
Can you make a small correction in the first post?
It should be Galaxy S3 and Galaxy 3 because there is another phone called Galaxy 3 (GT-I5800)

Hello guys,
here is the ultimate-kernel-cleaning-script for the sgs3.
The changelog is the same like sgs2 now but if you have kernel parameters from other kernels as sgs2, I would be glad when you post it here...

Really? REALLY?
I've just looked at it and it took me a minute to stop laughing long enough to post.
Ok people, here's the low down.
ui_print("Formatting Cache Partition");
delete_recursive("/cache");
Why?
ui_print("Wiping Dalvik Cache");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
What the christ? Why? What has dalvik got to do with kernels? PRECISELY NOTHING. Why are you making the boot time longer than it needs to be?
So far, we're doing things not related to kernels, that people can do themselves via recovery.
Code:
delete("/system/etc/init.d/S91voltctrl");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/S98bolt_siyah");
delete_recursive("/sbin/siyah");
delete_recursive("/data/.siyah");
delete_recursive("/system/.siyah");

delete("/system/etc/init.d/99nstools");
delete("/data/user.log");
delete("/system/Hawker.u.copier");
There's a -lot- of stuff there more related to applications on the market rather than kernels. Why are you deleting them?
Especially hilarious is this:
Code:
delete_recursive("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq");
delete_recursive("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu/cpufreq");
delete("/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings");
Why do you not understand that these files are generated at boot time? They're created based on the kernel running. In fact, deleting these files has no effect whatsoever because when you reboot out of recovery THEY ARE GONE ANYWAY, to be replaced by whatever kernel boots under a normal boot.
You clearly do not understand this. I could go even further into how utterly retarded this zip file's existence is, but to do so is a severe devaluation of my time because of just how hilariously a waste of time your "tool" or "kernel cleaner" is. You haven't the first clue of what you're doing so why are you encouraging people to download and use this crap, which is at worst a detriment to their system and themselves and at best does nothing of value at all?
I mean you don't even clear out old modules!

Here is the beta 3 to 4 update.zip I talked about earlier.
All credit goes to Feb and the other awesome devs. I just created an update.zip that seems to work for me. If you break your phone using this, it's not my fault. I have only tested it quickly.
creamed_glacier_beta_3to4_wifi_fixes_apns_extras.zip (34.95 MB)
The above patch includes a bundle of updates from feb's beta 4.0, an APN list, exta live wall papers, an add blocking hosts file and a few other things.
Calendar sync, market, wifi, talk, and headphones all worked for me.
How to install:
---------------
- Reboot into Recovery
- FULL WIPE (factory reset,delvik,system) [i had issues when i didn't full wipe]
- Install Feb's creamed glacier beta 3.0
- Install TDJ's v13 beta ICS kernal
- Install this zip
- Reboot
- On first boot select "Setup Wizard"
Note: If the APNs don't load go into the APN settings, hit the menu button, and select "restore defaults"
As I said if you break your phone don't come crying to me, no warranty!
If this helped hit the "Thanks" button

If you want to fix it. You can:
1. grab the apk from the beta 4 zip
2. push it to /system/app
3. change the perms to match the others.
4. reboot.
That is what I did and it seems to work.

I've looked around and can't seem to find a proper guide of how to make flashables I know newer cwm's use an amend script as opposed to the older edify what ever that may mean xD .... anyways I want to start creating my own shiz I don't want to give details but I think it might be kind of special and could interest some nerds anyways if someone can point me in the direction of a proper guide/ tutorial I will much appreciate it.

Often it's as easy as gutting another flashable .zip that you know works, then replacing the directory structure and files with what you want to install. If you want a neater solution with more customization, adamdelozier found benzyniarz1's UpdateZipCreator utility, which provides much more customization possibilities. It currently has a bug that causes scripts to fail, thus causing the entire flashable .zip to fail, but I've let the developer know what's up so hopefully a fix will be out soon. If you want to learn about the bug and the workaround, see pages 5 and 6 and pay close attention to the "Error 6" and "EOL" related posts.

Yes, you can create a custom script from scratch within the utility, and it has the most used commands available to drop into your script, along with a very brief description of syntax for each. Read the OP for the utility to get an idea of its range of features.

UpdateZipCreator has been updated to use UNIX newline / end-of-line / EOL characters in the script generator / editor, which should eliminate "Error 6" when flashing .zips in CWM Recovery.

This has example scripts, but I don't remember it dynamically generating scripts based on what you install. You must customize the scripts yourself, to include mounting the partition you wish to install to, install package, and screen output. FYI, IIRC the screen is 48 fixed-width characters wide in CWM Recovery. That should help make pretty output screens!
*WARNING! I Am Not Responsible For Anything That Happens To Your Device*
** PLEASE BE AWARE! THIS SCRIPT IS FOR "T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II" WILL ALSO WORK ON "AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket" ONLY! IF YOU FLASH THIS ON ANY OTHER DEVICE YOU MIGHT HAVE A VERY EXPENSIVE PAPER WEIGHT! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! PLEASE CONTACT ME FIRST IF ANY OTHER QUESTIONS **
:: DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE ::
:: DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE ::
..A DARKSIDE DEVELOPMENT..
This is a small script i threw together a while back. I have incorporated in many of my ROMS, usually runs with a installation flag '-wipe'. The script does exactly as the title explains. It is SUPER.WIPE that does the most thorough wipe possible. This exceeds anything that CWM is capable of from the menu options. This will format and erase EVERYTHING on your /system, /data, /cache partions with EXT4 file system. It WILL NOT wipe SD CARD or EMMC... After it is complete with format and earse, it will align all disks partitions properly. This is a great tool to flash right before installing any new ROM on your device. No need to worry if you have wiped properly. Let the script do it for you! ENJOY!
Instructions on using DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE:
* WILL NOT WIPE SD CARD OR EMMC *
IMMEDIATELY BEFORE FLASHING ROM OF YOU CHOICE, DO THE FOLLOWING...
1. Place on ROOT of your SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery Mode
3. Do a NAND BACKUP!!!
4. Flash DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE
5. Stay inside recovery
6. Flash desired ROM.
7. After flashing is complete, Reboot...
8. Done!

"so that is the reason for the darkside.cache.wipe... because you cant wipe the cache in recovery... recovery as in CWM right? except through script like in your Darkside.cache.wipe?" (Quote from @Rushing)
ONLY USE THIS IF YOU NEED TO WIPE CACHE'S OR FIX PERMISSIONS IN CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY. THIS IS TO BE FLASHED IN RECOVERY! This replaces the need for using the broken built in CWM recovery functions. The DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE script will wipe both the /cache partition and the dalvik cache. After its has completed the wipe, it will then fix permissions (the correct way). This should hopefully fix that damn ICS reboot hang issue once and for all.
** PLEASE respect my work and ask my permission before posting mirrors or using any parts **
you underestimate the power of the DARKSIDE
not sure why yet???
Thanks from this. I've been waiting for something like this as a seperate flashable. comes in handy when you do a lot of testing.

When posting such tools that aren't device-specific and work on all (or a majority of) Android devices, please consider posting them in the appropriate Android Development and Hacking forums (should be either Android Software and Hacking General or Android Software Development in this case), rather than device-specific forums. Once posted there, you can then make a post here as well with a brief description of the tool and provide the link to the main post in the appropriate section.
This way, the tool will get more exposure, plus it'll make things a little less confusing for the new users who might think the tool is specific only to that device in question.
Well, that's my two cents. Keep up the great work! =)

Different devices have different partition mappings so one tool will NOT work for all devices .......... sorry but you are incorrect in telling him to post in a general forum.
IE
Mmcblk2 might be /boot on one device, or /recovery on another and /system on yet another.
Wiping a recovery partition accidently could cause bricks ....
PS
Awesome tool bro. Ill use it for sure

Hey guys, I come from the EVO 4G (supersonic) forums and have experienced this unclearable, unfixable, *86 PhantomVoicemail issue enough, when running AOSP/MIUI/Sense 3.0+ ROMs to know how annoying it can be. A fix in the Phone.apk smali has been found for this and I'd be glad to fill requests.
Dj21o has brought it to my attention that not only the EVO, but the E4GT and probably many other Sprint phones can have this issue. Not everyone can go through the trouble of deactivating and reactivating the phone to fix it permanently, so here I am, ready to fill requests for flashable zips that fix the issue. This fix is ROM specific so as ROMs are being updated the fix will be updated as well, if devs want to implement the fix into their ROMs that would also be very helpful, so just post the link to the ROM you want fixed and I'd be more thank glad to help fix the issue. Post the DL link the the ROM or the ROM thread and sit tight.
NOTE: If using an ICS ROM/Recovery then you must wipe Dalvik-Cache, this ensures ROM stability. (I usually just mod the Phone.apk right after downloading the ROM, so I usually forget this step)
I will add fixes (all are flashable) the the OP as I fill requests. Check back to see if your request has been filled.
Thanks a ton, many people will appreciate this.

Thanks! This would be great to keep alive everybody, so far I've fixed over 20+ ROM's.
Hello thanks for the fix. Would you be able to make an apk for CM9 alpha 3 that has the phantom voicemail fix but also works at 160 dpi? The one included with the rom crashes at 160 dpi. Thanks either way, if you can or you can't.

Oh, and you should also warn people about flashing your install zips on ics recoveries.
The fix you've shared are smali Java edits. Since they are, you'd need to wipe dalvik so the new classes.dex can be created. This wiping could potentially cause bricks when using any ics recoveries available right now.

I was referring to using the install zips posted in the OP. Caution should be used with these.
Manually moving the apk as you have indicated, you should also clear phone.apk data from the settings/app menu, delete the file with *phone.apk* in the name from cache/dalvik-cache, and then reboot.

Although I personally have only experienced this right after a brand new AOSP flash (it goes away after first reboot for me) I'm sure this will make many people very happy. Thanks for offering your services here!

Good looking out there...you're right about that. I'm very flash-a-phobic when it comes to doing anything while running a AOSP ICS rom.

The four times that I have had to do it, I literally changed permissions to the same in system/ app, copy and paste, reboot. And I have not had any problems. The OP knows what he is doing, since I have clearly done it four times. Make a backup if you feel more safe lol.

Dude, I've made this mod also for several e4gt aosp roms. So has teamERA, people over at epic og cm9, and the guy over at evo3d that probably was the originator of this mod.
If you edit the classes.dex file in phone.apk, then the dalvik cache needs to be rebuilt to update for this change. It's basic android operation for deodexed files. If it works for you not to do anything with dalvik, then cool. But it's not 100% permanent fix unless that dalvik is updated.
Look, I'm glad the OP wants to help out and offer modded phone.apk here. But it's irresponsible to post flashable zip files for ics roms, for the e4gt, and not provide a warning in the OP.

That's what a reboot is for, to rebuild the cache. And everyone knows that you don't just flash the zip by itself. You have to do the complete ROM, gapps (if needed), and then the vmail fix. OP doesn't even have our phone, so don't be a jerk about it. PM him about putting in in the first post.

Sorry I didn't mean to be a douche, either. You do have a point about flashing, and a lot of people will probably screw up if they are new to Android. But yeah let's keep it positive in here lol.

Hey OP, can I make one more request for when you have time. I like running my phone at very low dpi and the lowest the e4gt can go without system ui crashing is 129 dpi. Could you make a phone.apk with ghost voicemail fix that works at that low density [for cm9 alpha 3 rom]? Thank you very much. And to the other guys, you can just extract the package and then move the phone.apk using a file explorer and set permissions.

Ok, I really should contribute to the community somehow So I decided to fix any little problem in my rom i'm currently using and release it, so people like me, that means people who like clean and tidy ROMs with some extra horsepower under the hood and few tweaks that increases usefulness of their device a bit will have their life a little bit easier because I'll try to implement as much awesomeness without unnecessary bloatware to this ROM and learn a bit about modding in the process
And I proudly present you PowerXperia ROM for Xperia S
It's based on official .45 ROM, with following changes:
StatusBar toggles
Percentage battery mod
^ these two were one mod, p3001ee's statusbarmod with quickpanelsettings.

exciting stuff!! Btw, is it overclocked by default??
Harsh7689: The point of this ROM is to ease the effort patching it up to others with similar requirements from their device. I've not said that I have done something special, I don't know java and I know very little from bash and other scripting... only thing I've learned up to today is to find a mod, test it and if it works well use it until i find better. This is my little I can do for the community... Maybe I'll learn from this baby-in-sandbox project something that will allow me to do a bit more for community than this... I agree, it's nothing much fancy, but it might help someone, that's why I posted it here.
imrock: It's kernel is krabappel2548's XperiaSSpeed Kernel V6, so yes, it is overclocked by default and can be overclocked up to 1899 MHz, which me personally finds quite hazardous Anyway default overclock is somewhere around 1,7 GHz which is safe value The package also contains Voltage Control free edition, which will allow you to alter those values to your taste

after desperate messing with aroma installer i have another idea how to contribute to community tool that generates aroma scripts
What is the difference between this "ROM"and the other ones like Eratcher and DualCore "ROMS"
It is supposed to be as much stock as possible, while getting some extra functionality, to be honest, i'm not keen using AOSP - themed rom, if i would want to, i'd bought galaxy nexus... i've bought xperia cause i like it's design... by the way, being arrogant and rude is not the best way how to support someone trying to learn something...

i think he(Felimenta97) is asking for the kernel because ladynaamah has the ka kernel with default sony logo.
You may extract zImage file from archive and flash it via fastboot using command
Code:
fastboot flash boot zImage
provided you have connected your device in fastboot mode
geekygrl: I'm aware of that, but what shall i do? Type here guide how to extract it, modify it, repack it and flash it separately? That's not making much sense, would excessively complicate process that is supposed to be simple...
