3. Now these well take a while. Run option 3.
4.Now run option 4, and wait.
5. Exit xUltimate, and put the phone in USB mass storage.
6.. Go back into the xUltimate folder and copy "done_frame", and "done_app", and move them to the root of the internal sdcard not in the external sd.

I use Android Kitchen (Via Cygwin) and I have no problems in deodexing any rom.
Make sure that you have JDK 7 installed and that it is set in Windows Environment Variables. Search on Google for more info

Hi. I tried to flash recovery on my OB
follow the tutorial but when I touch the recovery button
on anreboot app it rebooted.
after LG logo, it shows only black screen and 4 led buttons flashing on and off.
Whats wrong on my OB? I recovered my OB, but still can't go inside recovery.
ps. I'm from korea. What my OB differs from your P970s?
can differences crush my result? sorry about my english

Ignore the error and execute the second "dd" command. If you get messages similar to the following, then you may have successfully flashed CWM recovery. You can try again by rebooting to recovery using AnReboot:

Im sure i rooted it(by G.B 1.2) and turned on debug mode.......
Is my OB wrong because of firmware version??
my OB is V10p korean version ......
Hi All,
Here is rooted 3.2.78 firmware for SDE enabled devices.
I did two versions:
- squashfs (like my previous build), in this one, system is read-only, you can't add/remove stock apps and edit system files. Files are compressed so it takes less storage space than ext4, it should be also slower than ext4.
- ext4, system is read/write and should be quicker. Be careful if you modify system files though.
Both have kernel/modules from 3.2.78.
To install it:
0) You must have SDE installed. If you didn't do it already, check there instructions on how to do it.
1) Extract zip file content
2) Copy android_3.2.78.squashfs (or android_3.2.78.ext4) to internal storage root. You can do it the usual way or with adb with this:
Code:
adb push android_3.2.78.squashfs /data/media
or
Code:
adb push android_3.2.78.ext4 /data/media
3) Reboot
4) On boot menu, select "Recovery system"
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5) Select "developer edition menu"
6) Select "flash kernel and initramfs"
6) A drive should appear on your PC, copy zImage and initramfs.cpio.gz to it.
7) Select OK, the kernel should flash.
8) Select OK to reboot and maintain vol+ pressed. Boot menu should appear after reboot.
9) Select SDE in boot menu, you should be rooted and SuperUser functional.
The only change from stock: I enabled vibrator control panel option, it has been reported to work on some, it doesn't on mine.
I checked 3.2.78 stock firmware, it has an updated bootloader, it may be worth flashing stock firmware too to have everything synched.
Download rooted 3.2.78 on squashfs here.
Download rooted 3.2.78 on ext4 here.
Cheers,
LeTama
great thank you
gonna flash it as soon as its downloaded
btw do i have to do any special things to flash the ext4 ?
Ok...good job....!!!
I understand now why I did not have options rw in root-explorer....because I managed the Rom with squashfs and not with ext4.....
Now everything is ok....thanks again @letama...
No, nothing special for ext4, same thing as squashfs...

No, sorry, our posts crossed, I was effectively replying to djnilse. I'm trying to refrain my "quote mania", it was not a good idea this time
Ext4 is R/W, and permanently, no need to remount it in root explorer.
I would have preferred ext4 mounted first as r/o and allow the option to remount as r/w when needed, but this is not possible with the way Archos designed their rootfs.
Hi Letama,
Thanks for your build but I cant use your kernel with 3.2.78 kernel modules and when I extract kernel from 3.2.78, init kernel does not boot :/.
Thanks in advance
Thaolia
ok i flashed it everything worked fine
i have now a dualboot recovery menu with Android(non-root) and developer(root)
on developer the root is ok, also the system is r/w
thx letama for the rooted newest update
As a question to get out of the way early in the thread, I'm on your earlier rooted one, do I need to wipe?

Archos kernel is using a new compression scheme for initrd, check my howto, the "find . | cpio ..." command. You need to rebuild your initrd.

I don't think so, Archos firmware update doesn't, so it shouldn't be necessary.
I had to wipe mine for another reason so I can't be sure though.

My extract kernel is of 5Mb (I use your howto for extract the 3.2.78 kernel). Init and recovery extract kernel doesn't boot with a lzop initramfs.cpio. Wheras with your kernel and modules, all works fine.
Sry but I certainly forget somethings.
Thanks in advance
Thaolia
Tha0lia,
5 MB is wrong:
- aos-unpack gives you 9_MMCF (5145304)
- dd strips header and gives you init_kernel which contains zImage+initrd (5145040)
- aos-kernel-unpack of init_kernel gives you kernel and initrd separated (unpacked-kernel, unpacked-cpio.gz), that I renamed to init-zImage afterwards.
This is the one you want, size should be 3993572.
Cheers,
LeTama

Is it possible to get swap working in the build modifications?
When I use swapper for root from the market, reboot and type free, I get this:
It shows it as empty and unused. Any idea why? There's a swapfile on /sdcard, in fat, which is being activated by the app on boot. Could this be fixed? I'm using the latest rooted ext4 version btw
Sent from my ARCHOS 80G9 using xda premium
I got swap working!
You use swapper 2 and direct it to /mnt/sdcard, and rather than /sdcard. Turns out internal is ext and it needs fat

I just need instructions on installing Clockwork on rooted zv8. The AIO does not work for me. It hangs at starting daemon.
Are you in internet connection mode with debugging enable? I know it sounds like a stupid question but I had a brain fart when doing it and forgot that part... doh!
My USB connection is broken, so here is how I did it using terminal emulator.
1) Download the cwmrecovery.img to your SD. ( I downloaded MT's zip file and then extracted all with root explorer, but you only need the cwmrecovery.img file.)
2) Use root explorer to copy or move it to the /data/local/tmp directory (make sure permissions are set to r/w/exe).
3) Launch terminal emulator and type these commands:
su
mount -orw,remount /dev/block/system /system
mount -orw,remount /dev/block/data /data
dd if=/data/local/tmp/cwmrecovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 bs=4096
rm /data/local/tmp/* 2>/dev/null
4) exit terminal emulator and then reboot.
You can then try the vol down+power button combo upon boot to enter CWM.
Good luck.

The situation is like this,
first am new to the android world and i was reckless i know, but some help would be nice
Case:
-Device: Xperia X8
-Rom: Stock 2.1
-USB Debugging Enabled
-Root (SuperOneClick)
-BusyBox v1.18.4
-Bootloader locked ( default state didn't touch it so its locked i guess)
-No Recovery of any kind
-** Very Important to keep the files, so please no solutions includes wiping the internal memory
What happen:
i was using "Font installer" app to change fonts and accidentally replaced "ALL" the font files in "System/Fonts" and that led the device not to boot now stuck on "Sony Ericsson" black screen
So:
- I think i need a copy of the original "System/Fonts" of any Xperia X8, if you guys can upload?
- and i need to know how can i access the phone internal memory so i can replace the content of "System/Fonts" with the new files
Thanks In Advance

Then I guess you are outta luck.. You have to re-flash your ROM. That'll delete data from internal memory. Data on SD Card will be safe..
May be you can use adb to push folder or files you want to its location. It will save your precious data.

@medomoo - There might be a way to access the internal memory with specialized equipment, but don't quote me on that one. Go to a phone repair shop or try talking directly to Sony.
The only thing you can do by yourself now is close your eyes and lose the information. You screwed things up really badly with no backup and no recovery. Learn, let it go and move on.

Thank you, But why i cant get root access in ADB
Let's put it another way. When your PC freezes, is there anything you can do to manipulate the files? No. Let's take one step further: when you get the blue screen of death while starting the system, is there anything you can do to anything inside your harddrive? No.
It's the same with your phone. Your phone is freezed even before mounting all of the partitions fully and correctly. So, ADB will do nothing. In short, in this regard, there's nothing you can do.
So, take your phone directly to Sony or to a phone repair shop. Or just lose the information.
OK lets say am going to flash a new ROM,
BTW just to take a lesson from that:- what is the safety steps i should take to prevent situation like this from happening again etc what kind of recovery and what else than recovery i can do ??
Backup all apps through titanium backup. And always make nandroid backup through recovery. Its advantage is that if you messed with your phone(like in this case) you can recover backup and you get your old phone back (with data of any kind).

Thank god, its working now and didn't have to flash new ROM and all my files are save,
1- Got "Shell Root" with SuperOneClick v2.3.3
2- Used "Android Commander" to push the Original Fonts to its place. and done.
Thanks everyone
I recently got my cache corrupted and whenever i turn on the phone the phone goes into recovery and says -
E : failed to mount cache.
E : failed to mount cache/recovery/last_log.
ETC ETC...
There is an endless argument about this error. i cannot boot into stock roms because of this. i just want to clear dalvik cache now.
Is there any way to do it?
I'm not able to wipe anything in recovery mode.
i can access download mode only.
Using adb
rm - r /data/dalvik-cache
rm - r /cache/dalvik-cache

Flash speedmod ics kernel and i can now access adb shell.. what should i do next?
when i enter this 'rm - r /data/dalvik-cache' command it says 'rm' is not recognized as an internal or external command. operable program or batch file.
I'm a noob at this. please direct me.

mistakenly entered a space in "-r" command.
if you get permission denied then run adb as root...
Code:
adb root
rm -r /data/dalvik-cache
rm -r /cache/dalvik-cache

I get this -
looks problem with the memory block.. my support ends here.. may be you will need re-partition..
- you may try to rerun this after installing a newer recovery like cm10.2 kernel.
