when i try to make WORKING ROM folder of SWKTM.tar.md5 after changing it to .TAR using dsixda
i get this error

that means that your tar file doens't have the kernel in it (boot.img) you have to put the boot.img file inside of working folder also
Don't try to use the .tar.md5 file directly. Do this:
- Extract the .tar.md5 file to a folder, lets say "/home/yourname/Stock". You'll get these files:
Code:
amss arm11boot boot.img mibib oemsbl qcsbl recovery.img system.rfs
We'll need to mount the "system.rfs" one. Now, do the following:
- Under your home folder (/home/yourname/) create an folder and name it "mntandroid". Create another folder named "system";
- Open a terminal window, navigate to the folder where you extracted the .tar.md5 file and get root user rights (sudo su/your pass);
- Type the following commands:
Code:
mount -o loop system.rfs /home/yourname/mntandroid
(remember to change "yourname" to your username);
- A new window shold open, it is the "system.rfs" contents. Select everything and copy to the "system" folder you've previously created;
- On the file manager, unmount the "mntandroid" drive;
- Compress the "system" folder - not its contents - to a zip file. The name don't matter;
- copy this .zip file to the "original_update" folder;
- try again now, it should work;
You can make it even better if you download any kernel (like Battery Extender) and place it in the .zip you've compressed before. This way, your zip should look something like this:
Yes, without any "META-INF" dir. Leave it like this.
Also, don't use the kitchen install script, I've read somewhere that it doesn't works. Use the Stocklite or some other stock-based ROM script.
Tell me if it worked for you. At least, this is what I did
Oh, by the way, this thread is where I got the mount rfs thing. I've just simplified it for you.

cd /sdcard
sh bootsound.sh
reboot
4. As the device boots up you will be greeted by the "Dolby THX" test sound heard before movies. You are now free to replace the android_audio.mp3 file in /system/media with any .mp3 file you like as long as you rename it to "android_audio.mp3"

Hi everyone:
I'm trying to install the 3.09.661.1 System update (Stock) on my phone.
Every time I try to install it, it fails (red exclamation mark) when verifying my Hosts file. I had modified the hosts file a long time ago to attempt to block ads and it isn't liking the fact that the file is modified, I'm gathering.
Here's the exact error:
Code:
Warning: No file_contextsVerifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/etc/hosts". "e4a6ce6d4ee32b7de4dfe23e6e82d9ea1c122b20
", "d234177b0b9de5309f78ff539e5eafea00e069df")
Installation aborted.
To combat this, I re-rooted the phone and modified the hosts file to restore it to the original... I think. I used ROM Toolbox Pro and told it to turn off ad blocking and now my Hosts file looks like this:
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
0.0.0.0 local
Before the "restore" there was mention of IPv6 though, so I'm not sure this is actually the default.
I have old CWM recovery backups of previous clean installs, but I'm not sure if the Hosts file would be included anywhere in there.
If anyone could give me some insight on a way I could install this OTA update without having to lose my information and wipe, I'd very much appreciate it!
Perhaps someone could post their unmodified Hosts file for me to try?
Also, it seems like 3.09.661.1 is one of the newer versions, would anyone like me to post the OTA update file? (Note: I only have it in the original .zip.21363.enc format, not knowing how to convert it to a "normal" ZIP file.)
EDIT (08/26/2013):
How I was able to update:
I was able to pull the original Hosts file from an old CWM backup file--it is stored in the system.ext4.tar file. I use Root Explorer to change the read/write settings on my Hosts file (on the device) then pushed the old Hosts file using ADB. When I tried to do the OTA update again, it worked, and now my device is running:

Not sure what that's all about (could be test software), but it's at least 4.2 since I have the quick toggles in the notification drop-down now.
Downside to the update: It deleted all of the contents of my "SD," so all of my photos and music, etc. was lost... Rather annoying and not normal OTA behaviour, in my previous experience. Going to see if there's a way to recover them, but I don't hold out much hope.

Download Firmware Finder
Using Firmware Finder, on Common Base page, search for LLD-L21C636.
For the latest FullOTA, select Filelist, and download the three files.
Rename update_data_*.zip to update_data_public.zip
Rename update_full_*.zip to update_all_hw.zip
Download HuRUpdater.zip
Prepare an update folder on sdcard, like so:
myupdate\
HuRUpdater.zip
update.zip
update_data_public.zip
update_all_hw.zip
recovery.img - optional twrp image if you wish
Boot into recovery, select Install, find and install ONLY myupdate\HuRUpdater.zip
You may need to press Volume Button for HuRUpdater to continue
Success!

Did you do exactly like above (using HuRUpdater, and LLD-L21C636B125 (8.0.0.125) FullOTA)?
Also, before you unlocked Bootloader, was your Stock ROM exactly for region C636?
Some example regions are here. I have never seen 0AJJ like the one in your photo.
Hi,
My phone is stuck in fastboot loop. I cant turn it off or restart to recovery. I've tried everything i could find on the web, but no result.
ADB is not recognizing the phone properly. The same as MiFlash. I've tried dozen of Miflash version and either they crash or have that message.
Pictures:
Miflash error

Fastboot and adb dont recognize the phone:
What are the other steps, what can i try? Is there a Miflash that works?
try this,
1) download platform tools folder
2) download fastboot rom 12.0.2 i.e .TGZ file
3) extract platform tools (u will find one folder inside named "platform tools"
4) extract TGZ file
5) copy all extracted tgz files in that "platform tools" folder.
6) connect device.
7) double click on "flash all.bat" file
8) done

I've tried it, after clicking flash all, command prompt window flashes (too fast, i cant see the content of the window) and closes. Nothing changes...
Image of platform tools folder with fastboot rom inside:
1. Open command prompt.
2. Navigate to the directory which contains flashall.bat.
3. Now run flashall.bat from command prompt.
With this you can see the error.
Advise: Check your path and see if any folder has a space in the name. Remove the spaces from the folder names.

credits to hovatek for mtksu, diplomatic for mtksu and suboot, & topjohnwu for Magisk
Needed...
1. Init.d Support Script apk
2. mtk-su_r23.zip
3. Magisk-v18.1.zip
4. MagiskManager-v7.1.1 apk
5. suboot.zip
6. magisk-update-block.txt
DISCLAIMER: I'm not at fault if you f&#$ your phone up.
I'm using a computer to do this procedure, if you want to rework this to be done without a PC be my guest. It is possible without a PC. I just seen people needed root for this device, I happen to own the device, and figured i'd be nice and give back to the same community that taught me android development for years...
STEP 1:
Connect to PC in file transfer (MTP) mode. and make a new folder on the device root directory called init.d
STEP 2:
Extract the suboot.zip file and locate suboot.sh you need to place this file inside init.d
Now you need to create another folder named bin (inside the first folder you made)
STEP 3:
Extract mtk-su_r23.zip and inside the arm folder is a file called mtk-su this file needs to go into the bin folder
Extract Magisk-v18.1.zip and inside the arm folder place ONLY magiskinit inside the same bin folder
if you did this correctly your files should look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*note* you DO NOT need to put the magisk-update-block.txt inside the init.d folder. That's just where i placed it. You only need the URL for the next step.
STEP 4:
Now from the phone install MagiskManager-v7.1.1.apk DO NOT LET IT UPDATE
Open MagiskManager and goto settings > update channel > custom
and paste this URL from the magisk-update-block.txt or from below
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/841e978604f989d04549013cd4dcc7e34aea5288/stable.json
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now you'll see that Magisk Manager thinks it is already up to date.
STEP 5:
Install the init.d scripts support apk provided.
* tick/checkmark on "Run scripts at boot time"
* Set Execution Delay to "No Delay"
* For Selected Folder set it the init.d folder you made, and then click save at the top right.
It will say 2 script files in this folder if done correctly
** NOW scroll down and click "Run scripts now"
It's free version so watch an ad... after 2 ads it will grant you pro access for 24 hours.
** Again click "Run scripts now"
You'll see "Show last execution results" appear below the "Run scripts now".
Your results should look like this.
Use root checker to confirm...
Thats it. Enjoy.
