How to extract kernel config and firmware for ROM? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Title says it all. I can't figure out where all of this is stored on my phone so i can pull it. And what would i use to extract the guts of a zImage from a .tar i already have ?
I really want to finish developing my first ROM but i can't figure out how to create a whole META-INF folder or the update folder. Any uelp from our seasoned veterans would he greatly apprieciated.

The stock kernel does not offer any means by which to extract the configuration. My github has a config in the work branch based on the default configuration suggested by Samsung in their source release, as well as several initramfs directories intended to work with the Captivate Eclair releases, with additional features like user init scripts, Voodoo lagfix support, and Clockworkmod recovery in place of the standard recovery.

Thanks unhelpful.
Righ now i'm trying to figure out how to create a flashable kernel out of a tar
Sent from my Cappy using mental telepathy, *****ezz.

That depends on how you want to flash. Odin use GNU tar files, you can create or unpack these with GNU tar. They must not contain any directory structure, and may contain a file named zImage, which will be flashed as the new kernel, and a file named modem.bin, which will be flashed as the new phone/modem firmware. There are other recognized filenames, but these are compacted RFS filesystems, and we lack tools to create these.
Zip updates are entirely different, they contain a script that directs the unpacking of files from the zip archive. The unpacker doesn't support permissions or ownership, so the script needs to take care of that. You need to include special utilities to flash kernel or modem, or else use a modified update-binary that supports flashing these directly.

A flashing tool like redbend would work, right?
Sent from my Cappy using mental telepathy, *****ezz.

Yes, but newer versions don't support flashing a single partition, only an update image we don't know how to build, and older versions try to reboot on exit.
You might want to look in one of my update.zip files, the latest release includes an updater that can flash kernel and modem, as well as support for programs run from updater-script displaying text on the screen.

Alright, will do. How can i write it to wipe data if i used it to flash an entire ROM?

There is update-script and the newer updater-script. They both use different syntax.

my only problem now is i can't figure out how to flash the kernel with an update-script without redbend and how to flash an entire ROM and kernel with an updater-script so i can format data... dammit.
thanks for the patience guys.

It can be done with update-script, but it's probably easier to use my update-binary and an updater-script. You can also use a shell script, but you'll need to install a shelli yourself, and any utilities you want to use. My kernel installer contains an example of this as well.

Should be able to change the keylayouts in /system/usr/keylayout/
S3c-keypad.kl - Volume
melfas-touchkey.kl - Home and Back
Audio is due to a feature set in captivate stock kernel that in the end only works with captivate modems.

So it cant be fixed?

Not sure, you could try installing a Captivate modem with the Captivate kernel, that might work. You might be better off trying to get an i9000 froyo leak to run than the Captivate one.

[Q] Transferring swype application

Is there a way to manually transfer swype application together with the database, dictionaries, etc from one ROM to another?
I would like to upgrade to a JPY based ROM, but I don't want to lose swype installed in my current ROM. It has the languages I need as well as a proper RTL support.
I tried backing up swype with MyBackup Pro, then restoring it on JPY ROM. It didn't work, apparently.
Thanks!
No takers?
Does anybody know if it's even possible? Could save me a lot of time copying files and flashing back and forth if I knew ahead that it just can't be done.
Thanks!

I too would love to know.

Yes but you have to either replace the files in the Rom zip or move the files manually after flashing. You dont install swipe, you just use adb or file manager to move files to correct locations.

[APP] MakeUpdateZip-20110303 **Multi-file capable**

This is not only my first Android app, but this is also my first dive in Java. Please be gentle as I expect there are several uncaught / improperly handled exceptions.
This app will backup selected files to a zip file that can be restored via cwm. For now, that is all it does. It can be handy for the oc/uv crowd since it will allow you to keep a backup of a good S_volt_scheduler init file to flash in case your new setting are too aggressive. It does not currently restore permissions, nor does it assume root permissions.
todo:
Obtain root to copy any file
Integrate a file selector so read permissions will not be an issue.
Detect/Restore permissions
Possible feature additions:
Create a restore.zip from current files based on an update.zip you want to apply. Could save you from boot loops when messing with system files.
Create a restore.zip given a file, a target directory, and permissions.
I will probably add this to the market once I get through the todos and initial bugs.
Changelog:
20110303
Multi-file capable. OIFileManager does not yet support multi-select, so each file must be selected seperately
Exception caught for mission OIFileManager
_delete.zip file seems to work correctly in recovery
Since I am not yet using root and OIFileManager will not assume root, there are some directories that cannot be viewed, /data/app for example. There are also some files that can be selected but cannot be copied due to their permissions.
Requires OIFileManager
Nice, will be useful
This looks like it could be a useful/powerful app. It could definitely benefit from some features (more than one file/location would be great) but I can see myself using this.
Thanks!

You are welcome. I actually have another app in mind to fully address that need, but I want to get further along with this one first. Since I am working on these on stolen time (I don't have any free time), it will take a while.
Since the apps seem to restore without permission issues, I may put that on the back burner. After I complete multi-file support, which of the future features from the op would you like to see first.

[Question]:zImage and modem binary swaps

I like to tweak my ROMs before a flash. i.e. make changes to /system apps; framwork tweaks... etc.
However, whenever I try to replace a kernel zImage or modem binary(using 7z, so as not open archive), I get stuck at a bootloop.
I can replace .apks and .pngs no problem using this method.
Can zImage and .bin be replaced as well? Does redbend also need to be copied? Since .bin and zImage reside in same folder in ROM... which redbend to use if needed?
Thank you?
Whenever I use a new kernel in Loki, or test one personally, I use the version of redbend that the dev included with their kernel initially. Modem does not seem to matter. Are you using a kernel that is meant for the version of Android that matches your rom? If you want to, specifically, what are you using?
This is interesting to me as well, as I did not know you could flash a zip that had been added to, so can you briefly explain how this is done? I would much rather inject my apps than do the titanium backup dance.
I also noticed that SGS Kernel flasher flashes the zImage by simply copying it, and rebooting.
If you are about to tell me I can manipulate my FS to add anything i want, in an update.zip, then sir, I love you.
BTW, if its a simple explanation, whats the redbend file do?

Exactly what Br1cK'd said. Use the redband that's with the kernel. If pulling the kernel from a rom and a modem from a different one same deal. Also be careful which kernels you use ie: right kernel for phone and version of Android.

No sir it is not quite that simple. Proper settings have to be in the update script for everything to install properly. Replacing one file for another of the same name usually works and some files can be added but system apps and additional folders need to be in the update script.

Br!ck'd, fan of your work and EDT as a whole... great dev team! It happens on any kernel/ROM combo I have tried, which is interesting.

1. I believe redbend is samsung tool for flashing volatile memory (NAND).
2. You can use 7zip to explore archives/apks without extracting them and breaking signings. Thus you can simple copy paste .apks/.pngs to appropriate directories without extracting
Most update zips are the actually apk and simple scripts in a flashable container. Roman form EDT has an excellent tool for creating flashable zips if interested... but yes you can manipulate file system of phone and archives. I use adb from recovery. Or android commander is a useful tool as well
EDIT: Explodingboy gives better explanation above
I use untermench's modified redbend. It's the same thing except it removes that ugly blue splash screen every time it is run. That said, I've simply copied over OS and CW into the trigger zips to override the stock kernel. And I never received any reports if it not working from anyone (and I've had releases with both).
Point being, in my experience it doesn't really matter (so long as everything matches). I've done the same for previous modems.
And as you said, all it's doing is copying them to the proper partitions.

Also, you are going to think I am crazy... but that ugly blue splash screen can tell me if it is a bad flash or not. When it happens on the top of screen= good flash, on bottom = gonna need to flash again, cause behavior goes wonky. Maybe just bizarre coincidence???

[Q] old stock android keyboard in 2.3.x

Ok, I have searched high and low, and found nothing, I want my good old android stock keyboard in gingerbread.

I'm thinking you could always pull it out of the 2.2 Froyo ROM zip that is around here.
Should be in system/app (I think).
You can use 7zip to pull it directly as a zip instead of unzziping, getting it and rezipping.
Once you got it, just put it on your sd card and install.
I can't promise it will work cause the framework is different on GB ROMs but it's worth a try. The worse you'll get is a "Can't install error".
Oh, I got it. And it even installs. But I don't know where it goes, Or where supposed to go in gb. Cause it didn't show up in the settings section.

Que?
what is trying to put files where?
meta-inf is in cwm zip files, it's the flashing instructions for cwm? There is no folder on the phone called that.
I'm confused
Lets start over shall we,
What you have to do is open the zip, either unzip with native windows tools or just open the archive in 7zip. Take out the keyboard apk you want out of /system/app and the corresponding lib file in /system/lib. Put those in the same folders on the phone, either push them with adb or drop them in with root explorer, and reboot.
Still no guarantee it'll quirk on gingerbread though...
The above mentioned directory is the folders in the zip file that when opened it will write to on extraction. On earlier roms, 2.2.x, i flashed it via cw as an update.zip. Apparently this doesn't work with 2.3.x. Do i have a file that is really old?

[Q] how do you flash "framework-res.apk" without bricking the g1?

I was wondering how I could edit the framework-res.apk (it can be found in the /system/framework directory) file and not brick my phone, I've tried putting a modified version
in a signed zip file that was supposed to be for that very purpose, a stock update.zip for getting rc29 to 1.5(and yes, I did flash my phone back to rc29) and I recently tried to just take a file manager in root mode and copy-paste-overwrite, but I just soft-bricked my phone halfway into the process, probably because it was still mounted
P.S. I did mount the /system directory as rw
my phone:htc dream,no 2g-3g contract(wifi only),rooted (universal androot),stock 1.6 drc83(but I can get it to rc29,1.5 and crc43; at least I think thats the name of the second update),stock recovery,superuser elite+superuser- latest, su binary- latest, busybox- latest binary, and about 5000 scratches.
--edit-- can also get cyanogen recovery,and root through cm 4.1.99, and cm4.2.15.1.
So is your goal to root your g1? Have you followed any guides to root? Can you give just a bit more detail of end goal and a bit confused about what os you are currently running. Also its nice to get all info from bootloader screen

I've actually already got cyanogenmod 4.2.15 on it so rooting isn't really an issue right now.
What I really want to do is theme my phone, because I really like the ICS buttons and black statusbar - but I want to wait until I'm more experienced
before I try to port cm7 to the g1 (as far as I know, cm7 is the first cyanogenmod to support themes).
P.S. since this is being sent from my g1 - I can't currently post my bootloader info; but I will as soon as I can.
Also. I want to know how I can sign the framework-res.apk after changing it to my satisfaction.
Sorry, reading my last post (although 2months old) I must have been trying to reply to someone else
You don't need to sign the framework-res
Just decompile with apktool, make changes, recompile (make sure to add the metainf and manifest from original back in) then you can create a flashable.zip to flash it and chmod, or add it to a ROM and sign the ROM or use adb when in recovery to push it and change permissions

How would I sign the rom if I put it in one?

If there are errors recompiling write those down and I'll take a look, as for as signing the ROM there are many ways, I use signapk for windows and one that amonra made for Linux, just Google search sign ROM android and you'll find many ways

Is there any posibility that I could just send you the rom I want to mod & a zipped folder containing a modified framework-res, and have you recompile/sign it? I just don't want to brick my phone. Thanks in advance!
If its a ROM for the g1 I already have it, how about just sending me your modded apk along with a link to the ROM and I'll make you a flashable.zip to install
And FYI, this isn't something that could brick your phone, recovery wouldn't be effected so worst scenario is you would end up in a bootloop

Does the ROM flash for you with you current setup before the edited framework-res? What I mean, if you were to flash the update-cm4.... (Whatever the name) right now it flashes correct? With your current SPL, radio, and recovery. The only thing I did was recompile your framework-res, swap it with the one from the ROM you mentioned, rezipped and signed the ROM
I can't think of any edits you could have made to framework-res that wouldn't allow you to at least flash the ROM, may get stuck in a boot loop or never boot, but the ROM should flash

from what I saw, the one you sent me looks more like a flash image than an update.zip,
if you look inside the one that I was talking about, it looks more like an ota, and I can flash it in cyanogen+jf 1.4 recovery which I got
from the flashrec app (not on google play anymore, from internet only).
I don't know if an unmodified version of the rom you sent me would flash, but the one you sent me seems to have problems in general.
No errors that would point specifically to the framework-res are appearing.
Here are the files that I modified: View attachment 2212696, decompile your own framework and paste/overwrite the contents over the contents of the res\drawable directory in the framework-res.apk.
I'm pretty sure that's the same ROM I installed you apk into, I'll be home shortly and take a look again, could have made a mistake

This rom that you gave me is about 10mb larger than the one I use, and takes 30 seconds to load in recovery and freezes everything momentarily.
@DREAMWAVE_devteam
yeah same rom, even checked SHA1 to make sure (with the ROM before i added your framework-res)
which is 1604kb compared with 5589kb of the original. so whatever was changed is what wont allow it to work
can you just quick go over how you decompiled and what changes you made, i know you linked something and ill look at it but i dont have a ton of time to dig right now so a brief overview would be nice
