Hi, im trying to change the ROM of my galaxy s3 mini from Linux using heimdall, and i've doubts.
My current ROM:
build number: JR003H.I8190XXALL2
kernel version: 3.0.31-639956
android version: 4.1.1
baseband version: I8190XXALL2
New ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2104638
build number: JZO54K.I8190XXAMA1
kernel version: 3.0.31 - 790526
baseband version: XAAMA1 [EUROPE]
android version: 4.1.2
ROM STATUS: NON-WIPE
FIRMWARE STATUS AFTER FLASH: OFFICIAL
BINARY COUNT AFTER FLASH: NONE
In this thread, the user arturaz explained how to change the ROM using heimdall:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066668
But, he used a ROM with the same baseband than the old one. As you see, I have an issue: my current baseband version is different than the new one. So, i'll have to flash more files, and thats my trouble. Because I'm not sure about that, and I need someone to tell me if my reasoning is ok.
Lets go!
1. Decompress all files of my ROM. I've stored then in my home:
/home/ali3n//galaxys3/I8190XXAMA1_I8190OXAAMA1_4.1.2_rooted_by_infected_/
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]$ cd /home/ali3n//galaxys3/I8190XXAMA1_I8190OXAAMA1_4.1.2_rooted_by_infected_/[/COLOR]
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]$ ls -1a[/COLOR]
boot.img
cache.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
STE_boot1.img
STE_boot2.img
system.img
So, those are the files that I've to look for in my current pit file.
I put my phone in download mode, connect to my pc and:
2. ¿Does heimdall detect my device?
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]$ sudo heimdall detect[/COLOR]
Device detected
3. Lets see my pit file to look for the files needed in the new ROM version and which partitions are used for each of them:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]$ sudo heimdall print-pit[/COLOR]

4. flashing the device and installing the rooted ROM
Once I've located which Partition Identifier is associated to each of the new ROM files:
Code:
[COLOR="Blue"]$ sudo heimdall flash --3 STE_boot1.img --4 STE_boot2.img --14 modem.bin --18 boot.img --20 system.img --21 cache.img --22 hidden.img[/COLOR]
I think thats all. ¿It's all right? ¿Does anybody do it before? I don't know if should i do anything else before flashing the device, and i wanna know your opinion about if this is the right way.
Thank you!
In Linux, Heimdall doesn't read download mode but ADB reads normally. In Win7, ADB doesn't read but Odin reads download mode.

Thank you for your answer, but I don't know what you mean blackknightavalon. In this thread a user explains how to change the ROM using heimdall in linux:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066668
My issue, is that the new ROM uses a different baseband version than the current one. So I don't know if the procedure that I've described, based on the experience of arturaz could work.
Thank you!

Probably too late for you, but maybe still useful for further heimdall users...
I guess what arturaz meant, was: Since he had a "XXALJL" build on his phone before he explicitly chose the same build but rooted. And further, since the baseband was the same, all he needed to re-flash was the system partition in order to get the "su" binary where it belongs. That's a Linux habitat: Only change the least that's needed when everything else is already there.
Maybe arturaz is willing to confirm my interpretation.
However, after reading his posting I went the same lane. My Mini had the same build and I've rooted it exactly as described. Then I installed ROM-manager and with the help of su (aka "root"), CWM. Using this I installed BenzROM, which has a different build. But since the entire image was replaced, the baseband fits to it.
And it works
Hope that helps.

Hi all
I am using a Galaxy Note GT-N7000 2.3.6 N7000XXKK5 (Hungerian) 2.6.35.7-N7000XXKKA-...
I was wondring if there is a way to view the device list in the partition table and there mount points.
I understand in older versions of android "cat /proc/mtd" would produce a table like this:
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 000a0000 00020000 "misc"
mtd1: 00480000 00020000 "recovery"
mtd2: 00300000 00020000 "boot"
mtd3: 0fa00000 00020000 "system"
mtd4: 02800000 00020000 "cache"
mtd5: 093a0000 00020000 "userdata"
I see now the mount points have moved to "/dev/block" but I can not get there names.
I have seen many assesments of some of the "mmcblk0p0-13" names, but nothing looked like an orgenized list of the "Partition Information Table".
Can anyone tell me how I can printout a table like above on SGN.
I would like to use the "dd" command to create images of all the partitions before I start messing with my phone.
If anyone could help me with these commands I would mostly appreciate it.
"dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p? of=/sdcard/???.img bs=4096"
(for all mmcblk0p? and there names ???.img)
and if possible to printout the partition table using "cat /dev/block/???" or anything else.
I fund ths on the "[INFO][DEV]SGS2 Epic 4G Touch Partition Structure"

yes it would be nice to know that. Then if it possible to use dd commands, then we will can flash custom kernels much easier and maybe make linux running nativeky if we get kernek source. Sorry for bad english.
Well, you can get the basic partitions from /proc/mounts :
Code:
-> adb shell cat /proc/mounts | grep /dev/block
/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system ext4 ro,relatime,barrier=1,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /cache ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=0,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=0,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /preload ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/.lfs j4fs rw,relatime 0 0
/dev/block/vold/259:3 /mnt/sdcard vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1015,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0
..............
cat /proc/mounts and partitions doesn't show where is recovery.img. and no cat/proc/mtd in /proc. So how to know where is recovery.img?
using adb
Code:
adb shell parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
using terminal emulator on the phone
Code:
su
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
and then command: print

Since your question is off-topic, I'll keep it short -
bs (block size) in the 'dd' command is actually the cpu buffer size used during data transport between devices. If not specified, default is 512 bytes. Each respective hardware driver then buffers I/O data between the cpu and its dependent device. 4096 is probably a good number for Android.
on Nexus 7 flo and maybe other devices:

/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 system.img
Hiya,
Can somebody post the output of "sudo heimdall print-pit --verbose" from linux with a fully working 16gb galaxy note?
Thanks!

I can do it if you do the same with none working Note
Can I do it from Windows?
Heimdall doesn't recognize my note, Odin does, When I tried installing heimdall drivers, i run zadig.exe, it won't show me any Samsung device in the list (yes i pressed show all and phone is connected in download mode.)
So i can't do what you want from this computer, i'll try again at home.
Here is the output from my Note :

Ending session...
Re-attaching kernel driver...
I don't know if it worth mentioning it, but at the end I got some libusb errors -7.
Maybe its because the permission is denied.
Pls try it with this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/00*
* stands for the port.
e.g.
If you have a "USB -7" error, so pls type this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/007
or
If you have a "USB -3" error, so pls type this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/003
and so on...
Thanks guys, i dont have the file near me from a broken note but i believe it looks the same still, i was trying to make sense of the heimdall readout. Its odd that doing a dump of the pit file from it produces a different binary file than the one that everybody is using with odin.
Chris X.,
I did it from Windows and here is the result

Rebooting device...
Hope it helps...
By the way, is it possible to do a bit by bit (in other words a RAW) ROM extraction/flash (many people including me would do it considered the work you already did for the community and the fact that we would learn a bit more on Note internals) so afterwards, an simple EFS restore would restore you Note original hardware information?
Thats mine from a stock note with stock firmware LB1.

Chris X.,
Regarding a raw ROM copy, do you think it is possible?
Chris X. said:
Maybe its because the permission is denied.
Pls try it with this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/00*
* stands for the port.
e.g.
If you have a "USB -7" error, so pls type this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/007
or
If you have a "USB -3" error, so pls type this:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/003

I think I got this error when I used my USBtoRS232 converter.. Needed a newer Linux kernel to get rid of the error or updated libusb package..

Which version of Ubuntu do you have?
Pls try this:
Code:
sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
if you need an upgrade, so pls try this:
Code:
sudo bash -c "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"

like title, which are the condition to use repartion + pit to flash a firmware?
same pakage content only 5 partition (file), for example
hidden.img = i don't know what do this
factoryfs.img = system partition
modem.bin = radio compart
cache.img = sec_csc.zip
zImage = kernel
can i use this package with repartition (+pit) flagged?
i extract the partition from .pit using heimdall, and the log is this

Rebooting device...
which of these partitions are required to use repartition?
thank's guy!
Never use pit file OR Re-partition option in Odin, except you are well expertise in modding N flashing, any wrong pit can brick your device.
routinely pit not require to flash any GB/ICS ROM, it needed only if you have did somthing wrong (e.g. flashed wrong firmware on note, which is not meant for Note)
N yes dont extract tar file (e.g factoryfs,hidden,cache)
Find my thread 'all stock ROM....' in sticky of development N refer to post#2 for installation guide)

I know that you only use file.tar.md5 with odin, but this is not the question.
I would like to create packages for use with repartition in a safe manner (for example, to go back from a flash of CM9), how does [Ramad] for galaxy S.
i'm not noob, but i don't know everything!
do u know the utility of hiddem.img and data.img?
have an other question about data.img:
in gingerbread is the partion of /data/app
but in ICS?
ICS should be different from GB, because the partition DATA is not limited to only 2 gb but is variable.
but, in this case, why ICS and GB have the same PIT?
Partition shud b same in both gb n ics, b'coz u can safely flash without repartitionung too

I've probably read everything currently available for unbricking a Galaxy S (i9000)g and Galaxy S Vibrant (i9000M), but I'm open to more suggestions!
Here's my current situation:
Bricked GT-i9000M - can't do anything except go into download mode
Odin doesn't detect the phone at all (obviously driver-related, but hang on)
Heimdall works fine, but the flashing just doesn't seem to complete (I've added my current PIT at the end of the post)
Can't boot into recovery (partly because I keep overwriting the recovery trying to install ROMs so right now it might not even be properly installed)
Tools available at my disposal:
Linux laptop running Kubuntu 14.04
Windows 8.1 Desktop
Windows 7 Laptop (not too accessible but can use if necessary)
Heimdall 1.4 frontend and command line
An ODIN flashable stock i9000M ROM that I extracted the files for flashing with Heimdall (although it was missing a boot.bin so I used one from another ROM, probably not the best idea, but I'm trying everything) obtained from here (it's bolded under "Android Rescue, Recovery Kits -> Upgrade or Downgrade or for Recovery": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29331775#post29331775
Issues
- It's been so long since I had this phone working that I forgot what ROM, kernel, etc. it was originally running and I know there's supposed to be an "upgrade" procedure for GB to ICS/JB, but I just want the phone bootable into a ROM right now.
- I can't seem to find a proper i9000M stock ROM (I apologize if I've missed it, but would greatly appreciate a link)
- Speaking of links, most "recovery kits" I've come across have dead links
- Most unbricking guides and the aforementioned recovery kits specifically state "ONLY for use with i9000" so I've stayed away from them for the most part just in case I end up with a perma-brick (not likely, but a possibility nonetheless)
With all that being said, I would appreciate ANY help you guys can give as I'm honestly all out of ideas. It seems like it's so close to working, I just need a proper, stock i9000M heimdall-flashable ROM.
Here's my most recent flash attempt (stock i9000M ROM from "Rescue kit" with files extracted into Heimdall flashable format, and using boot.bin from stock i9000 recovery kit)

EDIT: Just wanted to add that I've been using the 512 PIT, I've read mixed things on ROMs working with various PITs so I've just always been using whatever a guide tells me to use, which has always been the 512 for me since I've pretty much just been flashing stock ROMs.
Working ROM but Infamous Battery Boot Loop
Ok, I can successfully flash ROMs now! I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886393 and pretty much just gave up with the i9000M part especially since I don't plan on using this device with a SIM card anyway.
I had to flash the ROM in that guide twice - the first time WITHOUT the root zImage, and the second time WITH the rooted zImage. Then I flash CM9.1.0 twice (as per recommended in the guide) and from that point on my phone is almost fully functioning again - I can flash ROMs in recovery, I can reboot into recovery, and can use the ROMs perfectly. HOWEVER, I can't do anything if I shut off the phone. I can reboot no problem, but as soon as I power off the device, it's back to the battery boot loop. From that point I have to go into download mode and repeat the aforementioned steps.
So, I want to try fixing this battery boot loop so that I can actually power off my device when I want to. I've wanted to try some of the suggestions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923225&page=4, but as soon as I shut off the device I get the battery boot loop, so I can't possibly know when it's at 100%.
The other thing is that my battery seems to be at ~3.95/3.92V so it almost seems like it's overcharging since it's rated at 3.7V.
I've also tried wiping the battery stats via CWM but that doesn't seem to help.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, Any chance in resurrecting this galaxy tab 7? I think the partition table is messed up.
Model: Verizon Mobile SCH-I800
Issue: many;
failed to mount's
can't mount's
format fails
can't open
unknown rom
history unknown
*Can boot into recovery and download mode *can't apply update.zip from sdcard, can't even mount sdcard.
I have tried heimdall with stock roms and PITs etc but with no luck, Could not get the full file off The Collective helper package (stops mid download so could not go further with that; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383201
About to try adb with parted etc but have found little info on this and wouldn't know where to start.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks, happy to try anything

A little better from flashing the files from unbricking post, but still having troubles
Tab will boot and be stuck at Verizon screen.
If someone could help out and go to here and try to download The collective helper package (direct link) and re-up it to another mirror, I'd be very grateful. I can only get through at most half of the download before it stalls but it looks like some people can get the whole thing.
Or if you could post a link to stock firmware tar.gz file for this that would be great, I cannot find it at sammobile or live.samsung-updates or pretty much anywhere...
Thanks!

Looks like Heimdall is the flasher for your tablet, not ODIN as I had mentioned earlier, but you already know that.
Tried a complete flash with your first link you posted, Thanks a proper tar.gz! used heimdall.exe rather than frontend as I was getting libusb errors. command;
heimdall.exe flash --repartition --pit sch-i800.pit --CACHE cache.rfs --FACTORYFS system.rfs --PARAM param.lfs --KERNEL zImage --RECOVERY recovery.bin
everything appeared to work fine & 100% successful except I'm still at the same screen above...
The errors I get are;
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount CACHE recovery/command
# MANUAL MODE #
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmblk0p2
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't open CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(No such file or directory)
While i'm a little further, i'm at a loss what is still wrong, will try adb into partitions later and see if any are fat32 or something as I've seen on a post somewhere. Thanks for your help
