Christmas gift to all flashjunkies

These rom's is not any releases but only Christmas presents for all the flashjunkies on XDA.
My little contribution to the hero community
NR1. CM-6.2.0-RC0-Hero, Built this evening,well all know what it is,apps2sd etc.. + all google apps, everything included.
Wipe of all + ext partion
Flash rom
Well you know yourselves what you should do.
Here > http://www.elelinux.se/extra/CM-6.2.0-RC0-Hero-signed.zip
NR2. Gingerbread_2.3.1_r1_alpha1 This is a pure alpha, borrowed some from Lox_Dev particular solution on how to boot up
How to install then
1: Wipe of all in recovery
2: In recovery, adb shell run command
Code:
mount /system && rm -rf /system/* && umount /system
then flash the rom
3: Reboot boot and then when everything is ready
4: Reboot to recovery and flash gapps and reboot again
5: Enjoy

sry i didn't understood what u meant
if u mean that i have to write the adb shell command so i did that and all errors above
and i tried to only flash without any command with adb shell but it's failed too

Hmm, the only problem I have is that WiFi gets stuck on obtaining an IP address.
Other than that, it's actually not too bad

What I mean is wipe of all(factory reset and dalvik cache), then the command don't care about the errors,then flash and reboot should work for all.

Well as I say, pure alpha but the direction is correct in all cases. the graphics are ok,so for those who have the strength, this is a good rom to build on.

thanks for the reply , i get an error saying mount is not recognized as an internal or external comand ??

This gingerbread actually works pretty well and smooth! I also get the "obtaining address", but it scans okay.
Btw, why ADW and not stock launcher?
Keep it up, Ele

LG Optimus Chic (e720) Custom Recovery + Kernel (overclock)!

This Custom Recovery and this Custom Kernel were created by drellisdee! All credits goes to him! I just created this post to show this great news at all LG Optimus Chic's owner. Special thanks by all of us to drellisdee.
After thanking drellisdee and have assigned all the merits of his work, we start with the guide.Remember that this recovery is still in beta, I do not assume any responsibility in case of brick or malfunction.
1) Root your device with z4root or SuperOneClick
2) Download this recovery and unzip it into the root of your sdcard.
Recovery Drellisdee (password is "gnmtest", without the " ")
3) Download flash_image.zip and unzip into the root of your sdcard.
Flash_Image.zip
4)And now give these commands through the terminal or adb shell.
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 0755 /system/bin/flash_image
mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak (notice this file install-recovery.sh may not be on your device if it gives an error or file not found move on)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-alessi-gnm.img
sync
Then power off device and boot holding most likely vol-dn + vol-up + power button. You will see the custom recovery. To move into the recovery: Vol Up and Vol Down to go up and down. Back to go back and Menù to give enter.
The message E: bad boot message is normal disregard it.
For debugging use the move recovery-log to sd option under other and please upload it with feedback.
And nooooooow... The Custom Kernel!
Custom Kernel (for overclocking)
(password is "keepout", without the " ")
Put this kernel (not extract!!!!!) into the root of your sdcard.
Then flash it with this newest Custom Recovery!
Personally, I was able to step up the cpu to 729mhz ... This kernel is still a "beta", drellisdee said that soon it will improve and make it more stable.
Links works again!
Thanks again drellisdee!

Tested... Works 100%

Thanks for sharing this useful tweaks. it work pretty well on my e720, but my stock launcher always crash recently, don't know if this problem relate to this custom recovery.

Hi!
First you need to install firmware 4.0.26 ! ( android ICS )
- now , you can enable SDE !!! :good:
To boot in SDE :
1° - connect USB cable , enable USB debugging on Settings, and > adb shell reboot_into recovery
( your device will reboot in SDE menu ! )
2° - power off your device ! ; press & keep volume down and power button , after 2 sec. you can release power button but not volume down -> you will see soon SDE menu ( or Archos Recovery ! )
( ...does not matter if USB cable is connected or not for step 2° ! )

I understood, but I don't have the menu recovery.
I try to launch firmware_archos_it4x.aos but no think. the file is on SDcard ?

You need to use step 2° to boot in Archos recovery - because you have not yet installed SDE recovery !
step 1° is just for SDE enabled !
Can you come in Archos A80XS Recovery ? - following what I told you to do in step 2° above ....

Hi!
Yes you are right....but all this will not work if you are not in android ICS!
because he is already in Android JB - first, he must downgrade to Android ICS -> Archos Firmware 4.0.26 !

Well that is the first step in the end )
I still not found a solution to root in another way this tablet and i am busy testing some stuff with some other 2 tablets
read my ps
edit: i see your signature, seems that you got the g10 )

I think i don't have the menu recovery on my device, is it possible ?
the version of android is 4.1.1 ? and not 4.1.0
version 3.0.8+ ?
Is it normal ?

From jelly bean you cannot reboot using adb shell reboot_into recovery, it is not working
Shut down your tablet, then press the volume key - and the power button in the same time, when you see the first flash of image on your tablet, release the keys, if you get`it right (if you do not get it right, try again), you will see a white menu, with some options, format the tablet, and install the ICS firmware, and then you can use the stuff that is written above by Petru, and me.

Yes, take a look here !

Nice ), good for you that you got this one, i really like the tablet, but for the future i don`t think they will choose anymore tiomap SOC`s, i have an impression that it will be rockchip new SOC`s 3166, based on a 28 nm global foundries tech, possibly a quad core and maybe with 8 video mali cores
On the g9, it was possible to boot in normal mode (android, not developer) a rooted firmware?

Correct is in the following way : ( otherwise you risk to re-boot the device ! )
Shut down your device !
Press and keep "Volume Down" buttun - ( do not release "Volume Down" ) now just press the "Power" button for a few seconds and release it ! - continue to hold down "Volume Down" button until Archos recovery interface appears :good:

I have a G9 and I made lot of time this process all is ok
But with My 80XS no result the device continus the process and boot normaly

Ok! so, can you enter in Archos recovery or not ?
Follow this : Shut down your tablet than press and keep "Volume Down" buttun - ( do not release "Volume Down" ) now just press the "Power" button for a few seconds and release it ! - continue to hold down "Volume Down" button until Archos recovery interface appears !
( no matter the version installed in your device ! - your device has recovery interface 100% )
If you fail by pressing "Volume Down" - , please try again with "Volume Up" !!!
if you fail anything , please RESET your device ( press and keep 10 sec. "Power" button ! ) - now just please try again , once with "volume down" and once with "volume up" !
...also you can try :
- open your device -> go to power off menu and check reboot -> after only a few seconds, please hold down and keep "Volume Down ( - ) " button -> your device will boot in Archos recovery !

When i follow tout requirement please find the result

Is Posible to revert to stock recovery without pc?

is posible with a app? thanks...

No You Cant

I think it's possible. By flashing a stock ROM through dload folder method.

Hi!
It seems, currently you have a custom recovery on your device, so you are not able to flash stock firmware by /dload/UPDATE.APP method !
Is there two way for installing stock recovery on your device without PC !
1° - you need a custom rom which include recovery.img ( you cannot find here this stuff ) - only if someone does it for you !
2° - you can download stock Stock_Recovery_B118.zip , & terminal emulator ! With a Root Explorer you can unzip Stock_Recovery_B118 and copy / move recovery.img on your /sdcard !
Now just open terminal emulator and type :
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
# exit
$ exit
Now you are able to boot on stock recovery as usual !
Good luck !

I found in the forum a link for update.app extractor, so is it possible to extract that recovery and flash it through fastboot without any problems?

Achieving root on Xperia Z1 - 14.6.A.1.216

After dabbling around in some murky waters trying to achieve root, and going trough some 2010 stuff I did, I did discover a method I devised back then works to some extent, strangely.
Using fastboot (boot) to a TWRP recovery image (TWRP_v2.8.6.0_honami-f2fs_from_cm12.1_150423.img), mounting /system, and pushing a version of busybox, bash and using the supersu su binary already in the TWRP recovery image.
boot-new.img.bz2.zip (rename to boot-new.img.bz2 before extracting -.Just TWRP_v2.8.6.0_honami, with a different kernel and dt image included to boot from fastboot)
bash and busybox i compiled from git and debian sources yesterday/today
Basically this; (use only for reference.)
Code:
# Magically push all files in place here.
# Optionally, move /system/bin/sh out of the way and link /system/bin/sh to bash
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 755 /system/bin/bash && chown 0.0 /system/bin/bash"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox && chown 0.0 /system/bin/busybox"
# TWRP
#./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/su /system/bin/_su"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/su /system/bin/su"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/supolicy /supersu/su /system/xbin"
./"$ADB" shell "cp /supersu/libsupol.so /system/lib/"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0644 /system/lib/libsupol.so && chown 0.0 /system/lib/libsupol.so"
./"$ADB" shell "cp -r /supersu /system/app/SuperSU"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0755 /system/app/SuperSU && chown 0.0 /system/app/SuperSU && chmod 0644 /system/app/SuperSU/SuperSU.apk"
#
#./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/_su && chown 0.0 /system/bin/_su"
#./"$ADB" shell "echo "busybox su -c "_su"" > /system/bin/su" # or busybox su -c "_su -c /system/bin/sh-org"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 4755 /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su* && chown 0.0 /system/bin/su system/xbin/su*"
# Quite dangerous - Suggest moving passwd when in normal use
./"$ADB" shell "echo "root::0:0:0:/root:/system/bin/sh" > /system/etc/passwd"
./"$ADB" shell "chmod 0644 /system/etc/passwd"
Next step, to remount /system with write permissions from a normal boot, I think, would be to modify boot.img/default.prop and set "ro.secure=0"
Thought I had done this prior, I run with touch disabled as I cracked my screen (impressively massive drop of at least 30 cm! - onto object.. ) ... I could not remount system when I first tried.
Notes:
If i adb in early i can use supersu/su to gain root, when system is loaded busybox su -c ""supersu/"su" works. - NO AUTH

Hm, updated SuperSU via google play and suddenly it realized it was rooted . = ) Still keeping the supersu/su intact in /system/*bin

Thankfully I've been unsuccessful in grabbing root from /data/local/tmp this way as of now. Seems the permissions are reset. Though getting root without any auth is a serious matter no matter how you flip the coin. At least it's not as easy as pushing an archive to /data/local/tmp and running busybox su -c su. Also with a modified busybox you could easily skip the part where I write a /etc/passwd with no password.. Incredibly handy if you need root without Android running, say with setprop ctl.stop zygote, media and bootanim. But incredibly dangerous!

Fastboot to attached TWRP and install [STABLE][2016.02.02] SuperSU v2.65 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 - drop the zip to somewhere on the device and use the install function, i installed supersu via google play first. Attached is the kernel image i'm using. On a side-note, the script above failed .
Apart from this, the attached gnu-tools i will have to update... Got a neon flags optimized for out cpu and all, but that's for a different day.
Cheers, have a good one mates

Noob question: what is the difference between using this method for root and kingroot method? Which is better to use?

I've not checked Kingroot. But my thought is not to rely on nasty kernel exploits and have an as clean as possible root. Kingroot was not working when i first started this post. Also i dont leave system read write mountable. To do system modification i fastboot the TWRP image

Kingroot give you root but not supported and their binary are weired but when you replace it with supersu you can't mount system read/write cause of ric but thanks to Chainfire and his tools I find way to root with kingroot and replace it by supersu and disable ric

Noticed my boot img was rebooting sometimes, went off and updated my compiler toolchain and had a look at the kernel and recent developments.
Had a look at X-Honami v6 and ported some parts of that effort to the latter Sony kernel used in 14.6.a.1.216.
* Messed around with memutils and implemented ARM_PLD_64BYTE and USE_LDRDSTRD_OVER_LDMSTM atop memutils from the Xperia-dev unified kernel. - this needs some testing but appears to be stable at least with the options turned on.
* Slight overclock of GPU to 533 mhz, and underclock to 27 mhz on idle.
* Has kexec hardboot
I cannot busybox su -c su with this kernel. Which is only useful for developers anyway. You'd be wise in running some benchmarks before and after the flash.
Kernel needs to be flashed via fastboot.

Thanks a lot..

I still suggest using the fastboot method with the TWRP boot image attached in the first post, mount the system partition, select install Zip SuperSu, forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 .
Cheers
I've got a kernel-copyleft-14.6.A.1.xxx to finish up and officially forum post ; ) https://github.com/threader/kernel-copyleft-14.6.A.1.xxx-backports/ . And update and official post might come this week. Been running this for months now and its stable, and fast, whee.

I just used kingroot, unlocked bootloader, flashed dual recovery, flashed prerooted Rom. That's it. Easy as pie.
