If I may ask, how did you pull the Dump?
hes da_g, thats how he did it.
There are a couple sbf tools available that will separate out the CGs (Code Groups) from the .sbf (which is a container for the CGs and a few other things)
I used RSD Lite which splits them out, each is an image of the partition (like one made with dd) so you can do:
Code:
mount -o loop ~/olyfr_u4_1.5.2_signed_olpsattspe_p012_hwolympus_1g_1ffCG57.smg /mnt/atrix
which mounts the filesystem to /mnt/atrix letting you read everything out
Ok so pretty much the currently available version of RSD (4.9) can read the SBF just not flash it to the Atrix. Thanks!

Si Senor. Yes Sir!
Sorry I am trying to learn all the limbo.. what the significance of a dump? is that a copy of the sbf?
It's a file archive (specifically .tar.gz, which is comparable to a .zip or a .rar) with all the files in the filesystem. So it's not a copy of the .sbf, but another way of presenting the same data. And with root you can shuffle these files in by remounting /system rw and copying them in, to try out new stuffs
edit: updated first post with /osh dump

Hey G, exactly whats new in this? How do I remount the new stuff? You make everything sound so simple!
Well, for example, if you wanted to pull out an app you could grab the .apk from the dump, deodex it, and introduce it into your current rom..
I think it's likely possible to directly flash the .smgs to NAND too, bypassing the bootloader. I did some testing with Fenrir on IRC that resulted in a brick (all hail!) but before the brick happened we were successful in flashing a (signed) part of the NAND without issue.
(uploaded kernel config, initramfs, modem)

can you write to /sys folder with mounting ? if so i will stop what im doing as i have something to try
dumb question, but is there any rsd lite version that will flash this onto the atrix? not that i plan to do it, just want to learn.

Not right now. Tomorrow maybe.
@Fixter:
The modem is 1 version higher (info in first post) changes are negligable.
@t0dbld:
Yes, you are free to read/write the whole /system partition. (with root) (edit: after talking on irc i realize you meant /sys which is a kernel interface rather than a partition, you can't write to it like a partition, but you can change some config settings there)
And should any (very) brave souls want to try flashing through a completely manual, arcane, scary, possibly deadly to your device method, I might have a way to bypass the bootloader for writing the sensitive areas of NAND that would normally be signature checked. With some testing were able to write a few 1KB chunks without issue, when tried a whole image it bricked, failing security check on next boot. Have some ideas how to get around that though, maybe better to try when a working RSD/SBF combo is available for easy recovery

Hi, will this resolve my Atrix 4G's problem of unable to detece network carriers after using *#*#4636#*#* code to check the radio band?
My 4G now can only dial emergency calls. Can I share with u the attached docment and hopefully you can give me some advice if I can resolve my problem.
Thanks so much...

Are you trying to write to /sys or /system? Also, what are you trying to do?
ok serious question that might sound dumb.
how far are from unlocked bootloader ?
i mean i see everyone is so excited. but i dont know what does that mean .
can someone explain to me in simple way so i can thank him ? lol
Hi to all!! I've done a little modification to the original CWM to add support to the secondary partition we use in every CM/MIUI etc...
All is done! Now works without an error of mounting "/sd-ext" due to an "unknown volume type!!" in recovery.fstab.
I also included the recovery for the SDMerge and also a linux script. Sorry, but the archive is too big to post it here on xda so i had to upload it on 4shared.
Requirements:
1) Rooted phone (obviously!!)
Instuctions Windows:
1) Download the package from 4shared
2) Extract it in any folder you prefer
3) Make sure you have USB Debugging on
4) Run "CWM-Installer.bat" as administrator
5) Hit enter
6) Wait, if it takes too long simply disconnect the device and reconnect it immediatly.
5) Enjoy the new recovery!!:victory:
Instructions Ubuntu/Debian/Mint:
1) Download the package from 4shared
2) Extract it
3) Make sure you have the sdk properly installed with adb (if not check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100673 )
4) Run the script by typing
Code:
./CWM-Installer.sh
5) Enjoy the new recovery
The script is for stock roms but it works well even on CM or CM-Based ROMs so don't worry if you get errors, it's normal.
If you want your old recovery back you can open the CWM-Installer.bat with an editor and replace this
Code:
Files\adb push Files\recovery.img /data/local/recovery.img
With this:
Code:
Files\adb push Files\[COLOR=Red]CWMrecovery_orig[/COLOR].img /data/local/recovery.img
or if you want the recovery for the SDMerge just replace:
Code:
Files\adb push Files\recovery.img /data/local/recovery.img
with this:
Code:
Files\adb push Files\SDmergerecovery.img /data/local/recovery.img
And then run the script again.
Feel free to post comments!!

IT DOESN'T WORK WITH SDMerge MOD!!!

With this:

And then run the script again.

@Cobmaster, could you make similar recovery specifically for data2sdext on stock rom?
I already create similar mod based on this tutorial and it works flawlessly but lack of support from recovery (i.e can't backup/restore from sd-ext)

Are you talking about e405? Or you want a recovery modded to support the partition table in stock rom?
I think I can but I need more specs of the partitioning you use for the sd. I need the specific "/dev/block/mmcblk***" of the partitions in the sd. Nothing more (and a little bit of time obviously!).

it's for stock rom in E400 (E400 and E405 shared the same partitioning system though).
it's the same partition structure created by CWM recovery :
swap -> /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
ext4 -> /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 -> mounted as /data
vfat -> /dev/block/mmcblk1p3
thanks again for your effort

Here it is, to flash it use my script replacing the recovery.img with the one attached and report if it works or not.
Btw, are you sure that the "/data" partition is ext4? Because if it's wrong the recovery doesn't mount it.
Very sorry for the very late reply, I just had the time to test your new recovery (I had to create flashable zip for it since the script didn't work) and it work perfectly.
Now we have alternative to increase data partition without having to edit apps like gellmar's StockMergE400, means it will be compatible with all stock-based rom :victory:
Thanks again @Cobmaster :good:
Don't worry about it. It's very pleasing to see that it works.
hi!
@Cobmaster, could you make recovery for E405?
after make SDMerge MOD from '' lgl3e405.blogspot.com/2013/05/sd-merge-mod-for-e405-under-testing.html''. i can't restore my backup and i can't mount internal sd.

How about L5 E455 users? what do you think would happen if i try this recovery on e455?
will it brick it for good ?
-Rant
most of my previous droid phones were SE and then Sony and i never had to deal with any of this
int mem/int sd/ext sd crap. just int mem and sdcard .period
now i've two Chinese tablets and a sammy and now this e455 cuz i needed an affordable dual sim.
man, it's a clusterF. most my backups wont work cuz they've restored on the wrong partition and
yesterday i got some error message like "this dosnt work on emulated storage" and i was like wtf?

Root and firmware.
Hello all. I'm new to the site, and very sorry if this is a dumb question, but Id rather sound dumb than brick my transformer.. I'm planning to root my TF701 following lpdunwells guide. One of the prerequisites is to have 10.14.1.47 as the firmware version. My question is this.. When I unlock my bootloader and it wipes my tablet, will it reset me back to the original firmware version? Or will this matter?
My current firmware version is 10.26.1.18
Thank you very much in advance for your help, also, I will greatly appreciate any and all help and info regarding this matter.

If you want to root then use my guide as it is for 10.26.1.18. Downgrading to .47 and back up again is really painful.

Which files are you looking for?
Most of the files are available from ASUS's website and the ROM and recovery links are old and newer ones are available in the Development section of this form.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Asked in the OP to PM me if there is new stuff or if somethings doesn't work but received nothing.
Files will be back end of the day with latest firmware and kernel source.
Hi, I am getting my tablet soon, and I am assuming the tablet will be on 4.3 or earlier by the time I get it.
What firmware/kernal/boot loader is the best setup to get me onto the latest 4.3 OS. I only am wanting this because I want to avoid the 4.4.2 battery drain issues (since I am most likely going to flash an AOSP ROM after I get this tablet).
Also, how would I be able to properly update the tablet with the firmware/kernal/boot loader? Thanks for the help!

Hi, I tried pushing my firmware file to root, but it wouldn't work. I would use root explorer and it would just freeze and restart. anyone know why this would happen? Im trying to update to 4.3 without getting into 4.4.2. please help if you can
You have to unpack the file, inside this is another zip file. Put it then in sd root this should work as far as i know

Hi
There is a new firmware version 11.4.1.27.
Is it posible to add this version to the post?
TWRP 2.7.1.0 multi-mode recovery. 2.7.1.0 v3 was the first release for p500, (thanks to @HardLight for advising, testing, and posting it. And for making a p500 OS2SD ROM to justify it.)
v1 and up are for thunderc (Optimus V/S), there's a separate thread over there in the appropriate forum.
Now with f2fs! Thanks @HardLight
OS2SD/Internal All-In-One. Switch modes under Advanced. It tells you on the title bar which mode it's in.
It'll flash gapps or PurePerformances or what have you to either the p2/p4 sdcard partitions for OS2SD or the internal partitions.
This has a special partitioner to set up your card for OS2SD. In OS2SD mode, go to Advanced then Partition. Set your sizes, it isn't aware yet of the whole card size (yet) so it'll just tell you if you go over and refuse to format it.
Whatever is left after your system/swap/data is your /sdcard size.
If it's in Internal mode the partitioner does sd-ext and swap instead. same deal, the leftover space is your /sdcard size.
Under the Wipe -> advanced menu, you can now select either system or data and press the 'repair or change filesystem' bar at the bottom, select change filesystem, select f2fs.
TLS enabled, system/data MTD swap on internal mode to match post-7/12/2014 androidarmv6 builds. Won't flash older ROMS or ones without the MTD swap correctly.
I am working on making it compatible with older builds too... but not yet. You may have to use a new update-binary to flash older zips. Or grab the older one from this zip file.

I suspect I'll need more than one extra post to cover important stuff that won't fit in the OP.
On the portal today was announced a recovery-switcher app. One could have the mtd swapped and not-mtd swapped recoveries, or a cwm and a twrp recovery on the sdcard and use the app to switch between them. Do not know if this baby would work on a P500, though.
Would rather have a decent all-in-one, but that 5meg limitation may make this impractical (for example, the cwm has lost its sdcard partitioning functions).

So if understand correctly i'll flash the mod "buttons search<->power" & other zip files normally and not have to put the files into the rom manually or edit the updater script etc.:victory: thanks a lot

that thing on portal reflashes the recovery every time to change it.
you could just as easily use flashable zip recoveries...

that specific mod, you'd have to fix the updater-script to use it for os2sd, because it specifies MTD mounts.
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
pa_gapps and CrossBreeder and other more generic zips use
busybox mount /system
//edit: proper syntax:
run_program("/sbin/busybox","mount","/system");
instead of trying to call out the filesystem type.

i'll check the updater script, thanks for the pureperformance thinks, i discover a another method to speed up the p500 :fingers-crossed:
bump
f2fs enabled for OS2SD.
uses updater script like so:
mount("f2fs", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p4", "/data");
to use f2fs /data go into Wipe menu, advanced, select data checkbox, press 'repair or change filesystem' bar, change filesystem, f2fs. accept.
you only have to do that once to change from the default ext4 partition type.
it handles /system f2fs as well.
mount("f2fs", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2", "/system");
change the filesystem the same way as data.
new 3.0.101 kernel but I noticed no differences in recovery except the working f2fs. Thanks @HardLight.
for now, attached .img for you who really have to experiment. I haven't tested this one very much on thunderg, just thunderc. basics tested on thunderg.
flashable zip added to shared folder linked in OP.
there's a little something extra in the shared folder...
I'm also uploading ROMs for the adventurous.
f2fs-system and f2fs-data os2sd builds if you're brave enough to try them. change both system and data to f2fs in recovery before flashing the rom unless you've already done that with an earlier version.
I don't have cell service to test but it's basically an androidarmv6 build plus 3.0.101 kernel and f2fs os2sd. everything else looks like it works to me.
I added Email, Apollo, Speech Recorder (which tunes up voice search I think), emojii in messaging and aosp keyboard, and extra wallpapers. Including Grass live wallpaper (which does actually work on armv6, it just looks for some network function and errors out ... I patched it,) and it reverts to building libcamera. Plus hackers keyboard because I like arrow and tab in terminal. No voice search in hackers keyboard though.
...
bump for twrp 2.8.0.0
no other fixes or anything, just a rev up for twrp.
I'll upload in an hour or so. //edit: well, maybe not so soon. I can't test at the moment since my o1 went into a no-boot loop. perfectly good running rom on it too. bah.
take me the evening to fix it.

i'm testing your's 0509
in this you made the on boot fix?

thanks
could you say to me if it's normal this:
i make the wipe of the /system in twrp, then if i go to "repair or change fs" it show size 390mb, used 110mb
but if i make a wipe or a "change fs", used space shouldn't be 0mb?
is the same for /data.
i un/mounted the partitions before, but have always some mb used in both.
hum minitool show me that the two f2fs partitions are fully used, maybe it can't read the f2fs, however i've formatted the partitions again in ext4 and now retry the f2fs format via twrp
edit: however, after 2nd format in the end /data have 144 mb used, /system 110mb. so i suspect it's normal

looks normal to me, ext4 uses "only" about 16MB after format but f2fs uses a lot more.
minitool will only work right if your kernel supports f2fs and I doubt m$ware does right now.
and the fix din't get migrated from the overrides in thunderc to p500 yet, sorry, was a 'for fun' build to share after a recent repo sync.
this one probably has a built libcamera instead of the froyo as well. (reversion)
reverted to twrp 2.7.1.0
2.8 kept bootlooping my o1.
one too many passes with kdz, it's total blackout no power, and I'll have to jtag it now.
be a while before I release another update unless I find an o1 with fastboot.

I meant that I can use. HardLight pointed me to the method to enable it... if I hadn't completely fried my firmware. no backlight even, much less lg logo or emergency mode.
eventually I'll find another p500 for development (I can't use gsm phone on my service) but the going rate on ebay is $50 and I can't justify that for a hobby.
unfortunately it's too tweaky and time consuming for me to remotely develop by having someone else debug, so any more p500 stuff will be untested and slightly sketchy because of that.
Project [F2FS] [OS2SD]
[F2FS] [OS2SD] it can work with any other rom? Thanks.

clockwork mod v 6.0.5.3 for pre-tls roms (before androidarmv6 swapped the system and data Mount points in the kernel) used for kitkat roms around July 2014 or earlier or other 4.4 roms without the MTD partition swap
So, I recently unlocked the boot loader of my phone, Redmi Note 11 (spes). The thing is due to water damage I had to change my Screen and certain components. Obviously to stay cheap, I installed a Third party Screen and Didn't care much. So today when I tried installing PixelExperience and other Cutom ROMs, Things weren't working like they should. It turns out, the custom rom kernel didn't have support to third party replacement screens. So I tried to root my MIUI Install and Backup certain files, like Kernel and other Stuff, so that when I install Custom ROMs, I can replace the new kernel with my backup kernel. While doing that I accidentally flashed a wrong image to the persist partition. I tried decompiling the official ROM, but didn't find any persist.img file, like literally it screwed up the whole Partition Table so bad, I can't even revert to orignal State. Here are the log files, which I think might help.
Custom ROMs use stock kernel (found in MIUI) due to lack of source code. I don't think the problems were kernel related, correct me if I'm wrong though

well, the problem was kernel related indeed, because after i locked my phone and pressed the power to wake it, but touch input was acting like mouse hover. Also, I don't really care about this issue anymore, I just want my phone restored first. I want is, Someome upload their TWRP Backup here, so that I restore it to the Original Condition.
Can you use a fastboot rom ( MIUI )?
Also, if there is a way to run this command on a rooted terminal, like after booting a custom recovery:
Code:
ls -l /dev/block/by-name | grep persist
It should show you which block device has the persist partition. On mine it's sda2, I think.

I managed to find the persist.img, But still have other errors to deal with, like:
Failed to mount '/system_ext' (Block device required)
and other Messages as well like this for product vendor and system_root!
You know these fall under the super partition. And I am totally unable to fix these errors, even though I have the corresponding images from the miui payload.bin. But I will surely try your method to try to fix it. Thanks

That command is to find the partition, not fix it.
You should try to flash a fastboot rom.
Better unlock the bootloader if you locked it.
Okay, So now I have system system_ext vendor product images with with. Now since, these fall under the super partition, how can I flash them separately?
