[REQ] Bell XT860 System.img - Motorola Droid 3

If any of the bell users out there would be kind enough to pull their /system folder for me I would be eternally greatful. I think if you open an adb shell on your computer, "su" to get root and then "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p21 of=/sdcard/mmcblk1p21.img" that would be what I'm looking for. Thank you in advance.
Edit ... If a mod wants to move this to general droid 3 I would also be greatful, too many windows open and too many hours messing with this lol. Apologies
Edit 2: ty Danifunker for an helping me w/my broken command, I thought dd would take a directory as input for this lol. Hope you're able to figure out your posting problem .

Hey there,
I realized you need mmcblk1p21, so I did dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p21 of=/sdcard/mmcblk1p21.img

You might want to post this in general and make the something to the effect of:
"HELP! XT860 NON-ROOTED SYSTEM.IMG NEEDED!"

I figured "request" = help ( http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/request ) and "bell xt860 system.img" = the rest. Rooted or unrooted works. Thanks for the help though

When you say push, do you mean "adb push" or "adb install", people seem to get those confused a lot. If you are on cyanogen, you will need to adb push Vending.apk to /system/app, keep it with a capital "V" so it may overwrite the old Vending.apk

Thanks for the script.
Anyone test this with the init script + this?
Sorry for double doubting again ) But i just want confirmation.
Also, Some of us are still having force close and other issues with the init sript. Just FYI.

Script Does work, I'm leaving up to the User to add back in support for userinit.sh though.
~Eugene
Word. so ill wait till someone tests this with the userinit
I think it has something to do with davik cache. I have to figure out a way to clear all cache without wiping. I dont want to go through all that non-sense.
Great work though. *Hats off*
Thank's Eugene for all your hard work,your the sh**
Hey eugene you think your battery hack will work on the vibrant?

this won't work with the userinit because it replaces the same file as the userinit. Now it could easily be modified to do both.....

Honestly you could just add the script from userinit.sh inside of the script, or the other way around & should still work fine.
Question, I would like to do as you said. Just add to the userinit
Is the problem just having the system/data mounted? It seems thats all your script does. If so, I can just use a widget to unmount/mount as i go. and not bother to have my system/data mounted all the time Please let me know.
Thanks!
Nicely done! I appreciate the work, I was hoping someone figured out a way to do adb push.. xda to the rescue again

Am having the exact same problem, with a Samsung spica (i5700) though. Any ideas?
adb remount is not needed with my script.. system / rootfs is already mount via the script.

thanks for your work eugene..

How do you Root Froyo on the Captivate the Easiest way?

I have the one click root on my computer. I was able to root stock 2.1 but not Froyo. I cant seem to get a normal Update.zip to reinstall to root it. Can anyone help me out with this? Thank you
Have you used adb before? Its easy. Just need to get the sdk dev kit. Then go here.

I sent smokestack a PM to see if he can help me out on how to do it. I just flashed the phone with Froyo following the directions here. I wasnt to sure about what I was doing but I did everything and it all eventually worked out well, with a couple scares lol. Im new to the rooting scene. I mean Im pretty savy when it comes to certain stuff and I was easy to install beta leaks and builds with BlackBerrys for 3 years. Im new to Android since the Captivate came out, so Im slowly trying to learn the tricks of the trade

The instructions seemed clear as day to me. Put the phone in debug mode, use adb to push the files, execute a shell script, use sqlite3 to allow side loading, change permissions on the files you pushed, and reboot.

I think what they are looking for is where to put the files that they download. I know in the rooting tread, it was missing. I also think some people do it differently, so it may help just to let them know how you find it easiest to navigate to them, etc.
Personally, I take the files that were downloaded and extract them all. Then make sure you have downloaded the android SDK program and put it on the root of your computers hard drive such as drive C:. Then add those files you downloaded to the "Tools" file within sdk.
To navigate to them with command prompt, it would look like: cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
Then run the commands as listed in the tread.
Hope this helps.
Perhaps this is not the answer you are looking for, but if you are comfortable flashing roms, flash Cognition 2.2 (its already rooted).
Good luck

I'm running W7 and am having issues with adb. I'm a noob to android but I'm learning. Anyway, I tried your suggestion of adding the files to the tools directory but when I enter "su" the system returns "su: not found". Any help?

Thats a link to the CRC of the test ROM, someone pointed that out to me earlier, thanks though. I'm on to looking for a dd of the system image, final thing I'm missing. All I have found so far are zips of the files which isn't what I'm looking for.
I'll let you know when the SBF is ready, more testers the better.

I would prefer a stock one so people can go back to stock, but no the system partition doesn't contain any personal info at all, its designed to be run read-only which is why you need root to mount it rw to edit it

[Request][DEV] Create G870A debricking image (simple instructions inside)

So Im having the same problem as this guy's post but he has a slightly different device so the the unbrick.img would not work. Any help would be appreciated. I copied his post because he had some good instructions.
If someone can help me out I need a debrick image.
You need to be rooted and have busybox installed!
Simply run this command as root and upload the image to mega.
Code:
Code:
busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/200MB.img bs=4096 count=50000
This will dump the first 200MB which includes bootloaders and such. No personal info, imei or other sensitive info will be contained in the dump. Greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks.
More info:
This is the same thing he did on his Note3.
