[Q] Missing config.gz on /proc

I tried to browse the files on /proc on my LG P970 but I can't find the config.gz file on it. I used the adb method and root explorer but I still can't find it there. I'm wondering if where is it located? Can anybody upload their config.gz from a stock rom?

Hello there!!
Even I am looking for the same. Did you got to know, how can we get the config.gz??
Let me know if you found the answer.

Is this what you are looking for??

Nope a lot of companies like LG remove it from the kernel. But e.g. for our phone, you can download the complete kernel sourcecode (without ramdisk) and rebuild it on your own with the defconfig in there.

Thanks for your replies..
Here the problem is Micromax does not release kernel sources.
Is there any alternative?

Write it on your own Search a board with the same hardware and try to apply it to your device... But I think you really need patience and definitly a way to unbrick. Email them for the sources, cause the used opensource and have to provide it. CMIIW.

Download Deodex Files.rar from attachment. Extract it. Make a folder named system. Add ur deodexed /app & /framework folder inside. Copy xbin folder & build.prop file from d extracted file & paste in system(Pic 2). Copy meta-inf folder outside system.(Pic no 1)
Use winrar to .zip it & flash.

[Q] Integrate SU in rom

Hy people, i need someone help with superuser.
I want to integrate last version in my next rom but i fail to do that.
I know that kitchen is what i need to use, but i need help with that, i tryed and after i finish, rom failed to flash.

Dont use kitchen.
Which rom are you using and which kernel?

Take super user.apk and put it in /system/app
Then,take su bin file
Set perms for them in updater script..
Just refer the root package..
I am a potato, problem?

Vo-1 cm7 based rom.
It has outdated su app and binary.
Link to rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837056
Kernel it will be 22.07 firekernel, because it's the best in battery life (people want that, and me to)
I will try what Prawesome sayd, then will see.

Why do you need update su binary?
New su binaries are buggy.
Instead try Supersu. Download package from chainfire's original post. And place the files as mentioned by prawesome.

well as explained above u need to place superuser.apk in /system/app & su in /system/xbin and need to set permissions in updater-script as:
set_perm(0, 0, 04755, "/system/app/Superuser.apk");
set_perm(0, 0, 04755, "/system/xbin/su");
BUT
if older superuser.apk & its su binary is present in a kernel and it replaces it on /system at each boot, ramdisk in boot.img needs to be modified and newer files needed to be replaced !

First i will try the simple one, with updater-script, if doesn't work, i will ask for help in ramdisk replacement !
Big thanx folks !

Try goo.im for the APK.

[TOOLS] dsixda Kitchen edify file for Nexus 4 (mako) and JB 4.2

Here is the dsixda kitchen edify file I have been using for Nexus 4 (mako).
If using cygwin copy mako file to your cygwin\home\username\tools\edify_defs folder.
Thanks to mskip for mount points
UPDATE:
As promised download the dsixda_JB42.zip and copy the files to the appropriate folder. This will help with Deodexing and by help I mean it will allow all files to be deodexed.

Hi goldfingerfif, first of all thanks a lot for the file, then I would like to use this to build a rom with latest dsixda kitchen release (0.214) but when I’m trying to deodex core.odex I’m getting an error, only with this file, the others works fine. Did you have the same problem? How do you solve it? I tried to do it with api level 16 and 15 but I have the same error. Maybe you did it manually? Or using the kitchen?
Thanks in advance

I'll upload the other changes...I forgot I changed api to 17 and updated smali and baksmali and the version to use file.

Was about to say about updating the smali/baksmali files - I did all that but it was this file I was missing so thanks a lot!

Were you guys using Cygwin when you saw this issue? I know that Cygwin sometimes messes up the symlinks that are not under /system/bin; whereas Linux / OS X are sometimes nicer. In other words, I try not to recommend Cygwin due to these kinds of issues.

@goldfingerfif - thanks for the edify_defs file. I've updated the kitchen to add Nexus 4 support in version 0.216.

The Windows application that is used to extract the files from the rom has an issue because it removes the symlinks. You will not see this happen in Linux or OS X. However, I have fixed your problem for those specific files in Cygwin.

Search for gzip in the defconfig you arr using and put # before the string. Then copy the line of gzip and replace gzip with lzma obviously without #
