[tool] sd-card sync sauce - twrp & android! - Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth

Here is a really straight foward sd-card incremental backup tool for all the crack flashers. This has been tested on the Pixel 2 XL in TWRP and Android extensively. It should works on most data media devices in TWRP with no issues. If the device also has a /storage/emulated/0 it should work in Android. Root is not required as far as I know, but recommended as it was tested with root. Also please make sure no file names have a * in them as it will fail the backup.
This has also been tested via Wireless ADB with ADB Wireless By Henry app on the Play Store. I have created and option to connect to it via wireless. All you need to is start the app and type the ip address given from the app. This function of the app will kill the adb server and start a new one on your giving ip address. If you want to continue working from the wired portion you will need to open a cmd prompt with adb access and type
Code:
adb kill-server
Or you can use the built in ADB menu.
All credits go to @Renate NST for the exe here. Also based on "ADBsync sdcard Backup" by @osm0sis, found here.

Adding W32 long path registry addition to copy long file name in Android instead of twrp. It will be a separate add-on that its to be imported into the registry once. Rename it from .txt to .reg and double click to import!

*ANOTHER*

Thanks brother, it's working flawlessly over here.

So, to be clear here, you've added some menus to my existing one-click adbsync sdcard backup script?

One of your one-click scripts have been added. Thats why I tagged you. But if you would like I can remove it and I can just keep the Android side of it?

Right on man. I forgot how brilliant that OP full of scripts linked above really is. I highly recommend folks check it out if for no other reason but to see what prolific devs on XDA are churning out...

I guess everything works and no complaints lol

Working great for me thanks dude.

I am liking it.

If only there was a shell script version of this. :good:
I am NOT good at scripting in any language. I was too old when I started this computer stuff, and am competent in most things android. linux and dos/win, but scripting eludes me. I need a time machine to go back to my pre-teens when learning this is natural.
I am getting close to unlocking and rooting my P2XL and I can manually backup the sdcard before wiping, but boy this script would be wonderful.

I don't think it would work in a linux shell. The adb sync binary is a windows exe.

Ah, good point, thanks. I guess I could think more about wine or similar. I just feel no need to boot into my Win 7 partition except for some GIS programs, that is rare these days.
Pleased that there are linux choices for adb, andromeda, and Deuce flash / recovery script.

I use that method, cannot restore any app with TB or install Busybox, for some reason it's root but not completely.
This thread shouldn't be in dev section, and there were bunch of root method threads/posts that could be easily found.

Read description:
Titanium Backup is an example of such an app. It may incorrectly detect the path to your internal storage for backups, and thus crash on backup/restore. You can fix this by going into preferences and selecting a folder under /storage/emulated/legacy as backup/restore path, not under /storage/emulated/0.

[Q] Rooting/Unlocking Verizon HTC One on Kitkat

I have a Verizon HTC ONE with android version 4.4.2 KitKat that is not rooted or unlocked. I know that Verizon blocks the regular form of unlocking it through the htcdev site so I wanted to know if there was an alternative way?
Can I install Android JellyBean instead of KitKat and use RumRunner?
Is this not possible unless the phone is unlocked and rooted?
Thanks!
You have to wait until an exploit is found if your bootloader is locked.

As I am a relatively new user to XDA (I'm not new, just new to posting) and it won't let me post links until after like 10 links or so, all slashes / will be replaced with asterisks * to make the forums think I'm not posting a link.
The ADB is the Android Debug Bridge. It comes built in to the Android SDK (Software Developer Kit). I'm not sure if it works standalone.
Anyway, this is what you do:
1. Download the SDK from here: http:**developer.android.com*sdk*index.html. It's 480 mb. By my home's Internet speed, that is a ginormous file. So if your Internet speed is anything like mine, allow about 30 minutes for download. And make sure your computer has the power to unzip a 480 mb ZIP file. This also installs Eclipse, which is basically a program you use to write Android apps. (If you think you may develop apps but you want an alternative to Eclipse, try the Android Developer Studio here: http:**developer.android.com*sdk*installing*studio.html)
2. Once it's installed and everything, navigate to: <sdk install directory>\sdk\platform-tools. Go to the address bar. Click in it, hit Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+C to copy, and Ctrl+V to paste it somewhere. I recommend a Notepad document or something. Then navigate to Computer. Click on System Properties and then Advanced system settings. At the bottom of the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables... Find the "path" variable. Paste the sdk\platform-tools link AT THE END OF THE VARIABLE. Make sure that you put a semicolon at the end of it. Click Okay and whatnot.
3. Open command prompt.
4. Type "cd <sdk install directory>\sdk\platform-tools"
5. The ADB should now work. Type "adb" before running any commands. List: http:**developer.android.com*tools*help*adb.html
Sorry if someone already said something about this. I started typing it before I went to lunch and I am finishing and posting this coming back from lunch.

[TOOL]adb_pusher(for windows)

I've made this simple and small tool seeing some people have bricked their devices BUT are able to access TWRP.
For some reasons they don't use the usb_otg, might it be they don't have the otg cable or something other, doesn't matter.
Maybe they aren't familiar with command prompt(command line), adb etc.
Q) What does this tool do ?
A) It let's you choose the desired rom, then checks if the device is connected and finally pushes the rom.zip to your internal storage.
Q) What does this tool NOT do ?
A) It doesn't install the rom.
You may add comments, questions, requests or graphic_design_help since my gui sucks badly.
Some prerequisites have to be met, adb driver should be installed. If you have ever rooted successfully that should be covered then

Hmm. Depends on which version you had installed. I think TWRP supports OTG since 2.6.3.x (not sure which version)
Hmmm maybe... I had twrp 2.6.3 and as I was worried about the device I didn't know what am I doing. I downloaded all the rooms requiring latest twrp and those didn't flash... Then I thought about adb sideload which I had totally forgotten... Then I first updated recovery via sideload then flashed paranoid Android xD

Either a running android system with enabled usb debugging

[MOD][SU.D SCRIPT] Use Decrypted device and have working mobile network

UPDATE: Thanks to @squid2's insight, there's a better method that should work for everyone. Just download the attached script, remove the .txt extension, and drop into your su.d folder with proper permissions. For more information, see here and here.
------------------------------
This is all thanks to @nkk71, btw. Right now the fix is very hacky but I'm sure ROM devs will find a more appropriate fix soon.
I'm not sure if I want to reveal the fix publicly in case HTC's spies are monitoring the thread, lol....probably better safe than sorry. But go visit nkk71's profile and buy him many beers for figuring this out. And also find some posts by him and click "Thanks."
WARNING: Dragons ahead! Anything you flash to your device is done at your own risk!
EDIT: Alright, I'll publish a flashable zip here based on the 1.53.617.5 US Unlocked Edition. I've been testing the mod/hack for a few days now and have seen no ill effects. It should work fine on ROMs using that base.
I have NO IDEA if it'll work on ROMs using an International/Europe base or on CDMA. If you really want to try it, make sure you make a backup first! You will need to "Format Data" in TWRP and flash the standard SuperSU zip to remove forced encryption (or do it manually, if you know how).
Let the bricking begin!
P.S. Thanks of course also go to @Chainfire for SuperSU and su.d!

Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, I have personally decided not to share this.
(I know you above all others will understand)
It is not a secret, I have a certainly made it public (or so I thought) enough.
Unfortunately the controversy, I'm not willing to deal with... An innocent "share", turned ugly
I fully endorse this method, though I only had 7 mins of testing, before things got very ugly, a very very very very very very very very very very unfortunate incident.
So be it.
The method is still sound, and anybody who wishes to use it, I have neither any objections, just please test it.

Looking at the logic in the HTC RIL library, in Pythonic pseudocode, it goes something like this:
Code:
if property_get("ro.crypto.state") != "encrypted":
if property_get("persist.radio.current.cnv", default="-1") == "-1":
if htcril_db_property_get("current.cnv") != "-1":
htcril_db_property_set("current.cnv", "-1")
Other libraries then query the htcril DB via the library, and behave differently if the current.cnv property is set in the DB. Based off this, I would guess that doing the following would have a similar effect without needing to hack the library:
Code:
setprop persist.radio.current.cnv 0
I haven't tried this, but I'm curious if restoring the stock libhtcril_db.so and setting this property would work.

Permissions for su.d scripts are 0700. If you want to put the script there while in recovery and you're using systemless root, you can use @osm0sis SUmount zip to mount the su.img and then the TWRP File Manager to copy the script over and change perms. Flash the SUmount zip again to unmount su.img, and then reboot.

Permissions for su.d scripts are 0700. If you want to put the script there while in recovery and you're using systemless root, you can use @osm0sis SUmount zip to mount the su.img and then the TWRP File Manager to copy the script over and change perms. Flash the SUmount zip again to unmount su.img, and then reboot.

Don't use the zip. That's the old hack. Use the script. You have to manually place it.
And use the latest SuperSU Beta, not the stable.

I don't see why not, I prefer to do it myself but the feature of rooting is within the tool kit so you can give it a go!

I think I'm going to just boot TWRP and skip actually installing TWRP at this time. I'll probably use the latest SR 5 for root. Otherwise, steps 1-3 look like what I'm planning on doing to root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
Simply
1- unlock bootloader
2- install TWRP
3- Flash root zip file from TWRP
yeah i was trying to root first lol my bad thank you for your support. one more question though after installing ex kernel 1.00 it boots back to recovery every time i tell it to boot to system. is that a compatibility issue?
I'm having a issue,when I put the commas for some reason it just tell me it can't me loaded ,invalid argument...im trying to do it like this video but not success...https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MDddSaptTok
Btw I also uploaded a picture of my problem

Look at you're command. It needs to be C:\. You have it backwards.
Still having issue Now not such file

Needs to be capital C. It's case sensitive.
Where is your twrp IMG file located on your computer?
Because I'm guessing it's NOT at the root of your C drive.
Yeah wish there was a full tutorial. I'm pretty rusty. Haven't rooted in 3 years.

You don't have the right name of the IMG in the command line. Type "fastboot boot" without quotes and press space, then drag the IMG into the command line and press enter. You should boot into TWRP no problem
Okay, put the twrp IMG into the same folder where your fastboot is located.
Then shift-right click anywhere in that folder and select the option to open a command prompt from there.
Then type "fastboot boot twr" and after you type twr, just press the "tab" key to auto-complete the rest of the filename.
Then press enter.
OK I GOT A workaround using the support toolkit Now my problem is I transfered over the superuser.zip file with the permanent twrp file....but I can't find it all all when i do a temporary trwp boot...all i see file with bunch of letter and numbers...for some reason I can't see those file in twrp...i boot the .img file using skipsoft toolkit but tried various way for me to flash the recovery permanently and the root file but no luck...this been getting more tuff over the years I remember when I had a s3 ,it was easy Now is a bunch of steps
Anyways I hope Ya can help me figure this out I'm frustrated with this already

Is there auto root method where I just plug and play?

Yep it is simple with the toolkit, used it for mine, super easy.
Just make sure you take your time and read what the toolkit is telling you, because it shows you the order in which things need to happen

Yep in the toolkit, it downloads all you need, all you system images, root packages (the latest), it auto boots your phone when it needs to get into ADB or fastboot, as per my comment above, just follow what it tells you in each window. It is so noob proof, I had no problem using when coming from Sony phones where the methods couldn't be more different and complicated
