Try running the last command as simply "adb shell /storage/rfs0/pwn"
(i.e. without the prefix /tmp/share/)

As promised, this post describes how to root the Atrix HD Jelly Bean build. This should also work on other Motorola 4.1.2 builds (Razr/Razr Maxx, Razr HD, Razr M, etc.).
The exploit requires setting up a special Samba share and mounting this share on your phone using the File Manager app. I apologize that this process may seem involved for some of you, and request that members of this community help each other out if some of you are having problems completing the procedure. I'm not able to provide individual tech support to every user who wants to root this phone.
The following instructions require a working Linux installation. The following instructions are for Ubuntu. If you don't want to install Ubuntu permanently on your machine, I suggest using a LiveCD installation. Instructions on setting this up are described here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD#How-To_LiveCD_Ubuntu
Once you're booted into Ubuntu, open a terminal. Create a new directory for your Samba share:
Code:
mkdir /tmp/share
Next, install the samba package:
Code:
sudo apt-get install samba
Edit the configuration file for samba:
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
Add the following lines to the end of the configuration file and save your changes:
Code:
[share]
path = /tmp/share
available = yes
valid users = guest
read only = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
Close the text editor once you've saved your changes.
Next, create a user for the Samba share by typing in the terminal:
Code:
sudo useradd guest -m -G users
Set a password for the new user. Remember this password:
Code:
sudo passwd guest
Provide a password here and press enter. You won't see the characters you're typing, so be careful.
Next, set a password on the share. Use the same password you just provided:
Code:
sudo smbpasswd -a guest
Type the password you created before and press enter.
Next, restart the Samba server:
Code:
sudo restart smbd
Finally, download and prepare the required files to the Samba share:
Code:
cd /tmp/share
wget [url]http://vulnfactory.org/public/motoshare.tgz[/url]
tar xvf motoshare.tgz
sudo chown root:root pwn
sudo chmod 6755 pwn
At this point, you'll need to know the IP address of your Linux host, which you can get by running "ifconfig" from your terminal (it should be of the form "192.168.x.x").
Next, move over to your Android device. Ensure you have enabled USB Debugging Mode (under Settings -> Development Settings). Ensure your device is connected via Wifi.
Open the "File Manager" app, and select "Remote storage". Click "Add storage", and fill in fields as follows:
Code:
Host IP address: [your Linux machine's IP address]
Domain name: WORKGROUP
Shared folder name: share
User: guest
Password: [the password you created above]
At this point, the phone will mount your Linux share. To complete the process, plug in your phone via USB to your Linux machine, and type the following in your Linux terminal:
Code:
sudo /tmp/share/adb kill-server
sudo /tmp/share/adb shell /storage/rfs0/pwn
If it's successful, this should print "[+] Rooting complete!".
Finally, install Supersu by typing the following in the terminal:
Code:
sudo /tmp/share/adb install /tmp/share/eu.chainfire.supersu.apk
Congratulations, enjoy your rooted device.
I can't stress this enough: I can't provide individualized tech support for everyone on this forum. Please help each other.

Why would anyone even attempt to use a VM for this simple root method? You could've been rooted already if you had just followed the instructions.

Same problem here. I couldn't get past the adb kill-server command. It would tell me there is no such directory. If any one can get past this can someone please tell me what they did to get past it.

Does the root method have anything to do with having android sdk and ndk on your system? Im thinking thats what it is now. Would i have to have linux sdk to run with terminal root or windows sdk?

No, you don't need the Android SDK/NDK, since I included a copy of ADB in the tarball file that you extracted to /tmp/share.
What's the output of "ls -l /tmp/share/adb" on your Linux machine?

I had to re-flash official JB firmware in RSD Lite before the exploit would work. Before that, the Exploit would return "Root Complete", but there was no root access (though I could su to # in adb). I run Ubuntu 12.04 x64 at work already with Windows in VirtualBox.
RSD Lite doesn't seem to want to complete a flash in the Windows VMs I run in VirtualBox at work, so I waited until I got home and used my Windows 8 Pro machine to RSD the phone with the official JB firmware. I run Ubuntu 12.04 in a VirtualBox on that machine already, so after the RSD flash, I ran the exploit from that VM - BINGO - worked on the first try.
Failing other options, you might want to try re-flashing JB in RSD Lite and running the exploit on a fresh device.
I used the firmware in this thread (To fix the issue the thread is about):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057078
If you decide to try that, Be SURE to get the firmware zip AND THE XML and replace the XML before flashing!!

[GUIDE] Making Dump Files Out of Android Device Partitions

Use:
The main purpose is to make a file that contains all data in android specific partition. This is really handy in case of dumping leak firmwares.
Pr-requirement:
- Rooted device.
- Knowledge of how to use adb or Terminal Emulator.
The first step of making dump files out of device partitions is to locate its mounting points..!!
So in our tutorial, we will make it in 2 sections. Section 1 for how to get mounting points, and section 2 for how to get partition dumped..
Keep in mind that this is xda-university; so my target is to show beginners how to do that manually, without the aid of any tool, so they can get the concept behind it.. OK let's begin..!!
Section 1:
Getting mounting points​There are several methods to achieve this, but we will discuss the easiest methods that give efficient information about the partition that you want to know its mounting point.
All these methods will be described using adb shell.
Way #1
Code:
adb shell
cat /proc/partitions
This one needs from you to figure out which block belong to which partition name.!!
{
"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"
}
Way #2
Code:
adb shell
ls -al /dev/block/platform/[B][COLOR="Blue"]dw_mmc[/COLOR][/B]/by-name
This one will give you info about the dev block names WITH their familiar names (i.e, boot, recovery, system... etc)
This command is not universal between devices, and you will need to gather its pieces (/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc/by-name).
How?
- In your device, use any explorer that can get you to the device root (personally I use ES Explorer, by pressing on "/" on navigation bar).
- Go to "/dev/block/platform/" folder
- Here you will see some files and folders, we need to open folders and search for the folder called "by-name" inside one of them; in my situation it was "dw_mmc" folder which has the folder "by-name" inside it.
- At the end, my targeted piece info will be (/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc/by-name)
- Now open adb shell and put that command..
Way #3
By pushing parted binary to /system/bin folder and run it (you can find it in attachment).
Code:
adb remount
adb shell "su" "" "mount -o remount,rw /system"
adb push parted /system/bin/parted
adb shell
chmod 0755 /system/bin/parted
parted /dev/block/[B][COLOR="Blue"]mmcblk0[/COLOR][/B]
print
Here, your mounting points will start with /dev/block/mmcblk0p* where (*) is the number shown in the table above for each partition.
example:
The hidden partition mounting point will be mmcblk0p10
The radio partition mounting point will be mmcblk0p7
The system partition mounting point will be mmcblk0p9
The recovery partition mounting point will be mmcblk0p6
and so on
Don't forget to "quit" the parted action after grasping your device mounting points.
N.B:
- You may need to run first:
Code:
adb shell
cat /proc/partitions
to know what is the initial name for your device partition.. In the example above, it was mmcblk0.
- Also to be able to do adb push to /system partition for parted binary, you will need insecure boot.img used in your ROM or adbd insecure installed in your device (Check this thread for that app), or just push parted binary manually by any root explorer and then fix permissions to rwxr-xr-x (755).
***​
Section 2:
Dumping ROM partition​After locating the mounting point of the partition you want to dump, open adb shell command prompt and type:
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=[B][COLOR="Blue"]/yourMountingPoint[/COLOR][/B] of=[B][COLOR="Green"]/yourDestination[/COLOR][COLOR="Red"]/partitionType[/COLOR][/B]
Let's say I want to take a dump out of system partition from above example. So the adb commands will be:
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=[B][COLOR="Blue"]/dev/block/mmcblk0p9[/COLOR][/B] of=[B][COLOR="Green"]/sdcard[/COLOR][COLOR="Red"]/system.img[/COLOR][/B]
This may take a while to complete the dumping process, depending on the size of your dumped partition; so be patient..
Note:
If the partition is formatted as ext3/4 then the dumped partition will have .img as an extension.
Other partition dumps have different extensions; examples:
radio.bin
param.lfs
Sbl.bin
zImage (without extension)
***​
Optional:
Read Partition Image​After dumping an image from android partition, you can mount it to extract a particular file for sharing, or the whole dump content in case the ROM chief wants to make a ROM out of dump files..
For Linux Users:
- Open terminal and type:
Code:
su -
mkdir -p /mnt/disk
mount -o loop [B][COLOR="Red"]yourImage.img[/COLOR][/B] /mnt/disk
cd /mnt/disk
ls -l
For Windows Users:
- Download LinuxReader from this site here.
- Open it -> Drives -> Mount Image -> Then choose your dumped image and hit Mount. A new driver will appear that contains all files inside the dumped image called "Linux native Volume 1". Just double click it to get inside the dumped image.
I hope you will find this tutorial beneficial,,,

Actions Explanation
★ Tutorial Legends ★​
In this post, I will try to explain the use of each binary used in the tutorial, so you can make sense of each action taken.
#1
Code:
adb shell
Run remote shell interactively, as if you are in linux terminal.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
#2
Code:
cat /proc/partitions
cat binary is used to concatenate file(s) and print them to standard output display. In our example, it prints the content of partitions file which is found in proc folder to screen display.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
#3
Code:
ls -al /dev/block/platform/dw_mmc/by-name
ls binary is used to list directory contents.
-al is the used option for ls which means to include entries that started with "." in long listing format. There are a lot of options for ls binary. You can always print ls --h to display help menu for other options available.

#4
Code:
adb remount
Remounts the /system partition on the device read / write. This has been disabled in some devices (those with secure boot image); so you need to make sure that you have patched adbd that can run this command effectively.

#5
Code:
su
Used to get super-user privilege.

#6
Code:
mount -o remount,[B][COLOR="Red"]rw[/COLOR][/B] /system
Specific command to mount the /system partition on the device read / write (rw).
If you change rw to ro, you will get /system partition mounted as read only.

#7
Code:
adb push parted /system/bin/parted
adb push is used to copy file/dir from your local computer to android device. The usual format is adb push <local> <remote>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
#8
Code:
chmod 0755 /system/bin/parted
chmod binary is used to set permissions for the specified file/dir.
The number after chmod is the permission used. See the next box for better understanding of chmod formatting:
Code:
[CENTER][B][COLOR="Red"]----------------
| CHMOD SCHEME |
----------------[/COLOR][/B][/CENTER]
[B] r w x[/B]
[B]4 2 1 [COLOR="Green"]= 7 (Full Permissions)[/COLOR][/B]
User ( ) ( ) ( ) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> 2nd digit[/COLOR][/B]
Group ( ) ( ) ( ) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> 3rd digit[/COLOR][/B]
Other ( ) ( ) ( ) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> 4th digit[/COLOR][/B]
Special UID GID STK
( ) ( ) ( ) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> 1st digit, ignored on most cases or put 0[/COLOR][/B]
In the above example, it is set to 0755 which means the following scheme:
Code:
[B] r w x[/B]
[B]4 2 1[/B]
User ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> This equals to 7 (rwx)[/COLOR][/B]
Group ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) ( ) ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> This equals to 5 (r-x)[/COLOR][/B]
Other ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) ( ) ([B][COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR][/B]) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> This equals to 5 (r-x)[/COLOR][/B]
Special UID GID STK
( ) ( ) ( ) [B][COLOR="Green"]--> This equals to 0 (---)[/COLOR][/B]
As you can see, if you said 0755, it will be as same as saying ---rwxr-xr-x

Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 of=/sdcard/system.img
dd binary is used to copy a file with converting and formatting.
if means input file; here we pointed to the whole partition, not specific file.
of means outputting file to specific destination path; here it is to sdcard with system.img name.

#10
Code:
mkdir -p /mnt/disk
mkdir binary is used to make folder dir.
-p is mkdir option which means to create folder with sub-folder at the same time. Here we want to create mnt folder that contains disk sub-folder in it. If the folder and or sub-folder(s) are already exists, it will not give error but nothing will be created.

if you mean extract to modify boot.img, then I don't think there is away to do that from device itself in the moment..
if you mean dumping boot.img then yes you can, just install terminal emulator from Google play and you can run adb shell commands directly from the device

Great guide hopefully makes it easier for us to get dumps! if you add logcats etc, i find they have trouble executing "adb logcat >> log.txt" -.-
also you should teach them the easy tar method, so while booted "tar -c /system/* >> /sdcard/system.tar" or via adb shell

Yup that is possible and easy to extract but it is only for partitions that is shown in android os,,, you can't use it for boot.img, sbl.bin, modem.bin...etc right

ofcoarse, i actually had a project going where it detects all partitions(modems, boot.img, system etc..) that archives itself into a .zip
it was going well until i did something in the script, now it only works on the s3 it shall be continued one day!

Such great tutorial, this is definitely going to come in handy for me. I have a question, how can you dump (extract) a bootloader? Can i use the same method as dumping the ROM?

Could you explain how to extract stock recovery image please?

[HOWTO] dump your rom
Code:

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/storage/extSdCard/boot.img

Hi,
I tried this on my I-9505G. It is NOT rooted, so I thought I could enter the system through Clockworkmod Recovery.
I did it, but at first I didn't mount the DATA partition (later on I did through CWM Recovery); I still ran the command:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system of=/data/media/TEST/system.img
Thought I hadn't mounted anything, the media folder was still there, I only created the TEST folder.
After the image was created I typed the "ls" command and the system.img file was in /data/media/TEST/.
I then rebooted once again in CWM and ran the "adb shell" command once again, I entered /data/media/ e neither the img file nor the TEST folder I had created were there.
My question is: where have they gone?? Are they still occupying some of my space or they just got deleted automatically when I rebooted??
Please let me know as I'd like to free that extra unuseful 1.2 Gb system.img file.
Anyway, just as side information, I later on mounted the /data through CWM interface and was able to see the folders ("/data/media/0/") I can see by plugging the phone normally to the computer. I then dumped the image.
I have some other questions:
I can I mount the /data folder (or the external SD) via command?
What extention should I give to the other partitions? (All of them)
Why did you say that it's MANDATORY that the phone be rooted if it can be done this way?
Are the images I'm dumping flashable through fastboot?
Thank you all for your time!

Anybody? Please.

•I can I mount the /data folder (or the external SD) via command?
I have not been able to find the SD card in clockwork on the I9505G, hence one of my rooting procedures send the root file vi "adb sideload".
I might be able to pull the data from the phone but the clockwork recovery is still not working 100% when fastbooting it.
•What extention should I give to the other partitions? (All of them)
.img are fine.
•Why did you say that it's MANDATORY that the phone be rooted if it can be done this way?
currently it is required that the phone be unlocked. Something need to be fixed in clockwork to make it work any other way.
•Are the images I'm dumping flashable through fastboot?
They should be, but I have not been able to flash anything on the I9505G vi fastboot because of the secure boot.
without a full official image this make my playing around a little concerning (slowing me down).
I will look into this at my leisure. I would love to be able to pull a rom off a phone with only unlocking it.
I will test some stuff using my old galaxy nexus.

I actually dumped everything WITHOUT being rooted. I only unlocked the bootloader... So it works.
Further, I tried to run "fastboot boot recovery.img" with recovery.img being the image file I dumped. The phone froze and I had to pull the battery... So I assume they're not flashable as well, though I'd like other feedbacks.
I've not clearly understood what "secure boot" means. Any guide or wiki?
Thanks!

Hey, great guide! I need some help but. I can't retrieve the common names / labels of my devices partitions. It's a GT-i8150 and there is no 'by-name' sub directory. Furthermore, parted does not work on mmcblk0 for some reason (unable to satisfy partition restraints or something). I also have no emmc file in proc.
Does anyone know how some other methods for getting the names of the partitions?
EDIT:
Another question - using ADB shell, is it possible to dump a partition straight from the phone onto the computers hard drive? My little 2GB sd card isn't coping! Thanks

a very basic but good guide

Manual Installation (first time installing custom recovery):
1) Gain root permission (ie; with Stumproot) and install SuperSU and Busybox.
2) Install Terminal Emulator or use ADB for opening up a shell (this example is using ADB).
Note: If using Terminal Emulator, make sure root access is given via SuperSU.
3) Download CWM installation zip file from the link above and manually extract it. Also, download the loki_tool binary from https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/archive/master.zip. The loki_tool binary is found in the "bin" folder of loki-master.zip after the file is extracted.
4) Copy recovery.img (contained in the CWM installation zip file from step #3) and the loki_tool binary (contained in the loki-master.zip file from step #3) to /data/local/tmp on your LG G Pad 8.3 v500 tablet with either ADB or a root explorer application and make loki_tool executable.
Code:
adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp
adb push loki_tool /data/local/tmp
adb shell
su
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_tool
Note: Since the command "su" was entered, the shell has root permissions to proceed.
5) Patch the recovery.img into recovery.lok using loki_tool:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/data/local/tmp/aboot.img
/data/local/tmp/loki_tool patch recovery /data/local/tmp/aboot.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok
Note #1: At this point in the installation procedure, there have been no permanent changes to the system. If there is an error or warning while patching recovery.img and creating recovery.lok, then stop this manual installation procedure. In most cases, the problem is that the version of aboot.img found on the device is probably not exploitable with loki_tool. This manual custom recovery installation procedure must be started over again from the beginning after flashing a loki exploitable aboot.img to the device (downgrading firmware should help).
Note #2: If recovery.lok is created successfully without any errors or warnings, then continue with the final step. The shell should still be open with root (su) permissions enabled from the previous steps.
6) Flash recovery.lok file with loki_tool and reboot to new custom recovery.
Code:
/data/local/tmp/loki_tool flash recovery /data/local/tmp/recovery.lok
exit
exit
adb reboot recovery

Added guide to OP for first time custom recovery installation.
Edit: Updated guide to use loki_tool from github.

Hi,
I have tried this method and get an "unable to find" error as regard loki, seen in this picture i took.
I have placed both recovery.img and loki_tool as from your download links in data/local/tmp folder on lg
Where am i going wrong?
Thank you

When you type "adb shell" to open a connection, wait for the shell to open before typing "su". You will then notice that the terminal says "root" as the user. Make sure you have "dd" installed (this comes with installing Busybox). You can tell if dd is installed by typing "which dd" in the shell. If it returns with a path to dd, then it's there. I also noticed that you tried to chmod loki_tool before you have typed su to gain root. You only need to type su one time to get root permissions in the shell. You can tell it is using root because it shows you as the root user at the command prompt.

I am sorry for my dumbness, but i am new to this and not a clue what you are talking about lol.
I never typed su as i followed this procedure on youtube and copy and pasted your text.
I am trying to understand this adb method, but a noob tut is not available, thus trying anyway to get it to work obviously without success lol

ADB needs root access in developer options. Attached screenshot.

You are getting an unable to find error because you typed the name incorrectly (it is loki_tool not loki_tooldd). Be very careful that everything is exactly the same as the guide.
Edit: Also, when you type a command in ADB shell, wait for the command to finish before you type the next command. You can enter the next command in ADB when the prompt comes back.
Edit 2: After typing "adb shell", you only need to type "su" one time as long as you don't close the window.

Does it support f2fs?

I think f2fs support is not default for stock CM kernel. There aren't any customizations on this. This is from Jenkins.

Currently I'm using LP AOSP. Afaik, only LP available. On my Razr HD f2fs and CM12 works just great. Definitely noticeable faster with f2fs.

I have just noticed the loki-tooldd, i am positive i did not type that i,.e the dd on the end.
But i will again tomorrow, test this and come back with any results.
I am also never once typing SU, i assume the program is doing it automatically.
I will test and post pics also.
Thank you

I dont think ADB is working correctly for you because you are not getting the correct responses when you enter commands. It seems like your system is "hanging" when you enter commands in the adb shell.
Maybe you should try these commands in a Terminal Emulator shell instead of using an ADB shell. You will just need to install an extra root reboot application from Play Store so that you can easily reboot into the new recovery when you are finished.

Thank you for you advice.
With terminal, I tried and copied the text provided, again gave same me errors and also the su and dd were there without me typing them.
It is coming to the point where i am giving up now as taking too much of my time.
Both are rooted and at least i can remove bloatware with root explorer etc and put my own stuff in, but would be nice to get this done and use custom roms, but simply not happening. @Tsjoklat, i do not see that option in developer options fella, checked 4 times to be sure.
Thank you loads fella, your a star and very helpful

Will You Do CWM Touch?

This version of CWM uses "swipe" gestures, but it isn't full touch. These versions of CWM are the official nightly builds. I was able to download the artifacts before they were removed for the next build in queue. Although, I plan on setting up a private build system pretty soon.

It's out of order. First use adb to push the files, then use adb to open the shell.

Your log says that you first typed "adb shell" and then you tried to use "adb push" inside the shell. Commands that begin with "adb" do not work when you are inside the "Adb shell".
Type "exit" inside the shell to close it and then "adb push" commands will work.

How to patch `system.img` to root the Samsung S10 5G (Qualcomm) device?

Hi All,
Device Detail:
- Samsung S10 5G
- Qualcomm Device
- Model: SM-G977U
- ROM: VZW-G977UVRU2ASH7-20190827135903
- Kernel-Version - Linux version 4.14.83-16633035 ([email protected]) (clang version 6.0.10 for Android NDK) #2 SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 14 16:23:48 KST 2019
Background: I have
- rooted the device with instructions given by Magisk.
- I can successfully reboot to the recovery rootfs.
Problem: I am trying to modify the `system.img.ext4.lz4` file to root the device with normal boot. I am aware that it will not let the device install OTA Updates.
Unpack-Pack System and make new AP.tar, flash:
- Without any modification to the `system.img`, I have just unpacked `system.img.ext4.lz4`->`system.img.ext4`->`system.img`->mounted to system directory and packed it back to `system.img`->`system.img.ext4`->`system.img.ext4.lz4`.
- Replaced unpack-packed `system.img.ext4.lz4` with the AP `system.img.ext4.lz4` and make a tar of it.
- Then I have flashed it using Odin v3.13 along with BL, CP, and HOME_CSC.
- Odin has show PASS and I have rebooted the device into recovery mode.
- Done the Wipe data/factory reset and reboot to recovery again but released the recovery key combination on splash screen as mentioned in the root instructions .
- The device stuck in a boot loop.
Tries:
1. Disable Dm-verity
- Removed `avb` flag from `boot.img` with
Code:
magiskboot dtb boot.img patch
- Removed `avb` and `verify` flags from `dtbo.img` with
Code:
magiskboot dtb dtbo.img patch
- Patched `ramdisk.cpio` with
Code:
magiskboot cpio ./initrd 'patch false true'
Patched `boot.img` and `dtbo.img` is working fine with magisk patched AP file but the `ramdisk.cpio` creating the issue: Stuck at splash screen when trying to go to recovery after successfully flash with Odin. Download mode is appearing on splash screen.
So, I have used `boot.img` and `dtbo.img` along with unpack-packed `system.img.ext4.lz4` but the result is still a boot loop. I have also tried a combination of `boot.img` and `dtbo.img` along with unpack-packed `vendor.img.ext4.lz4` and flashed the AP.tar with other files but still the result is a boot loop.
So, I want to debug the problem and got to know about `pstore` which preserve the logs when kernel panic.
2. pstore
- Checked that `/sys/fs/pstore` is mounted by the system with following in init file: Grep the pstore using `find . | grep '\.rc' | xargs cat | grep pstore -n -i` and get following result:
Code:
314: # pstore/ramoops previous console log
315: mount pstore pstore /sys/fs/pstore nodev noexec nosuid
316: chown system log /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops
317: chmod 0440 /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops
318: chown system log /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops-0
319: chmod 0440 /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops-0
320: chown system log /sys/fs/pstore/pmsg-ramoops-0
321: chmod 0440 /sys/fs/pstore/pmsg-ramoops-0
- Checked the kernel config by pulling the file from /proc/config.gz.
Code:
$ cat config | grep PSTORE
CONFIG_PSTORE=y
CONFIG_PSTORE_ZLIB_COMPRESS=y
# CONFIG_PSTORE_LZO_COMPRESS is not set
# CONFIG_PSTORE_LZ4_COMPRESS is not set
CONFIG_PSTORE_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_PSTORE_PMSG=y
CONFIG_PSTORE_PMSG_SSPLOG=y
CONFIG_PSTORE_RAM=y
- Check the `ramoops` configuration:
Code:
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/console_size 262144
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/dump_oops 1
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/ecc 0
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/ftrace_size 262144
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/mem_address 3241148416
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/mem_size 1048576
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/mem_type 0
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/pmsg_size 262144
./sys/module/ramoops/parameters/record_size 262144
`pstore` setup looks fine but when I am trying the get logs from `sys/fs/pstore` then I found nothing.
I have tried it by two ways:
1. Crash manually with panic kernel using:
Code:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Followed Reading Kernel Logs
2. Flashing non-working rom that cause a boot loop and then flashed a working ROM with rooting steps and checked the file at `sys/fs/pstore`.
I need a favor in:
- Any steps to fix/debug the `pstore` problem?
- Any other way to find the kernel logs?
Update 1: I get the logs from recovery but I am not able to identify the problem.
Logs link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b-XNmjpYvH-L8lY0xA0SYr7XcITVCrVS/view?usp=sharing
Description: In this video, I have done the following:
1. Displayed recovery logs before: The last recovery logs are ends with 8.
2. Rebooted the device with a recovery key combination. I have already wipe data partition before making this video.
3. The boot loop happens and in the next reboot, I have pressed the recovery key combination to open the recovery mode where logs that end with 9 displayed.
4. Then I have recorded `last_history`, `last_avc_message_recovery`, `last_log.9` and `last_kmsg.9`
5. `last_history` and `last_avc_message_recovery` looks unchanged(same as before boot loop).
6. Then, I just have tried to mount the system but that didn't work.
7. At last, I have just rebooted the system normally without any recovery key combination.

Is anyone have experience in detecting problems from the kernel logs?

i can not help you, but we can collect ideas. what about re-sign the system.img? there is a key somewhere, i guess just deleting won't work but maybe it is possible to calculate checksum

or maybe you can switch to SuperSU 2.79 SR3 (latest release from chainfire) or at least look inside the update-binary shell script how to root system.
regarding dm-verity i would start with searching for "verify" flag in your fstabs and remove it. magisk is also doing some hex patches and re-signing, it's the best source to look inside magisk installer zip update-binary/ updater-script, if you have the knowledge to read code
another option is try to port a twrp recovery from another snapdragon (i wonder if somebody did this already) if you can find a porting guide

I don't want to be the one who shouts fake, but the instructions you gave a link to says you have to be able to flash a bootloader first, which means an unlocked blootloader, if you have Verizon rom this is not possible, as the blootloader is locked.
If you did find a way to flash a modified bootloader, or a modified recovery those are the instructions we need, because in fastboot you are unable to do this with a locked bootloader and you are unable to unlock the bootloader on Verizon. If you have a modified bootloader or recovery flashed on your device what did you use to flash it with Odin? Because only way to flash a boot.img is either get into download mode and flash with Odin, or with Edl, if you got into edl mode then can you provide instructions on that, because we would like to know how to get the device into EDL mode as well
Sorry boys this is a hoax.

@DroidisLINUX there is video proof in OP, and again for you:
This is not a tutorial about unlocking and rooting, it is a question how he can modify /system to permanently integrate su

Oneplus 7 pro firmware collection

Ah yes, Oneplus released that new update. Now I must download 2+ GB off my capped data plan, then flash it to recovery, carefully switch back my slot then flash my custom ROM again to the slot I just flashed OOS to and then flash OOS again to the other slot and then I must repeat everything above. After that I must delete the 2 fake partitions the updater created on data because they are useless. Oh wait it doesn't let me delete them who'd have thought?
Seriously? What on earth happened there
A better solution is required, especially something that grants more control. Well here it is
The boring stuff:
I am not responsible for anything you do to your device
These zips contain the following files:
Code:
The firmware (duh)
flashall - flashes both a and b
flash_a - only flashes slot a
flash_b - only flashes slot b
The following partitions found in the official oxygenos zip have been removed:
Code:
vbmeta
boot
dtbo
odm
system
vendor
reserve
india
Because for custom ROM users these partitions are either unused or used by the currently running custom ROM
How to flash?
From TWRP (it doesn't even need to support decryption):
Code:
adb push abl.img aop.img bluetooth.img cmnlib64.img cmnlib.img devcfg.img dsp.img flash_a flashall flash_b hyp.img keymaster.img LOGO.img modem.img oem_stanvbk.img qupfw.img storsec.img tz.img xbl_config.img xbl.img /tmp/
adb shell
cd /tmp
chmod 777 flashall # or flash_a/b
./flashall # or sh flashall or use flash_a/b
I suggest you use one of the flash_a/b scripts to only flash your current slot and test the changes out before running flashall
From termux:
You might need to set selinux to permissive while flashing. Only try to flash your current slot, reboot and if there are no errors flash the other slot
unzip the zip file to a directory and cd to it. If you use termux you should already know this
Just run one of the flashing scripts as root
Note that the flashing takes some time. Do not abort it
From adb root:
Sadly I don't have adb root so if someone has it they can let me know how it goes and how they flashed it
Do NOT believe in myths. You do NOT need to wipe cache/dalvik/any other nonsense while upgrading firmware. Stop wasting your time
Downloads:
Open beta 9: https://glassrom.pw/guacamole-ob9fw.zip
More will be added when I have time
Yes I personally tested this on my device and it was fine. Except that the popup camera pops out sometimes but I just suspect big brother. Nothing abnormal
Happy flashing. Or whatever

Anybody caught the latest OOS release link yet? All I found was an incremental OTA

Is this project discontinued? If yes, I'd like to see a revival of this.

i stopped maintaining this as now i just ship firmware into my roms
Bitbucket
bitbucket.org

flash_a, flash_b and flashall really were just script generated scripts
something like
```
for i in $(ls *img | sed 's/.img$//g')
do
echo dd if="$i".img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/"$i"_a;
done
```
same for slot b:
```
for i in $(ls *img | sed 's/.img$//g')
do
echo dd if="$i".img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/"$i"_b;
done
```
concetenate flash_a and flash_b as follows:
```
