are there any description of all the different partitions on the pixel? what its use is? the format if any? for example I'm aware that: misc -> /dev/block/sdd1 is used for communicating to the bootloader from recovery but it apparently has no FS format/ just bytes lseeked into the device. but...

would this work on the att sgh-i497 (galaxy tab 2 10.1)??

you don't have to pull battery if you have an sdcard in slot. eject the sdcard and pop it back in. it will immediately continue booting.

reboot stuck on google screen/ power up works fine just as an update of info on reboot problem. When the phone is stuck on reboot it will boot fully eventually. I accidentally witnessed this when leaving the phone in this state while doing something and 6 minutes later it booted up. Another...

T-Mobile and ATT cm10.1 build works with this method also just as a test I tried the updater-script on T-mobile (jfltetmo) and att (jflteatt) variants of cm10.1 nightly and they boot just fine. I haven't tried all the hardware (bluetooth, camera, wifi) tho.

I just unzipped the file, replaced the file then zipped it back up on linux. ---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ---------- Your OP said the build.prop was optional so I left it out. Lately the phone seems to be rebooting fine now. I hope its not some...

reboot stuck on google screen/ power up works fine I used your method on cm10.1 source code build and it works. However if I reboot the device is stuck on google splash page with no adb or usb responce on computer. If I yank battery then put it back in and power up it boots fine. Is there...

OS: Ice Cream Sandwich Device: Motorola Xoom I am having issues with a simple service not running correctly. The logcat shows some force stopping on the installed apk. Also the broadcast receiver should listen to android.intent.action.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED but it is not. Any insight? This...

I wrote a simple application to connect to a bluetooth mini keyboard but am having trouble with the BluetoothDevice.connect() call. it gives discovery service failed. I have no problem using the bluetooth pairing and connect from the bluetooth settings menu. The same code works with a bluesnap...

This requires a rooted phone. How does adbd reboot on a non rooted phone?

how does adbd do it without root permission? the adb daemon on the device has to be able to do it to be able to respond to 'adb reboot' on a non-rooted phone. Anybody know how it is able to perform the reboot?

Anybody know what the default shell "/system/bin/sh" is? is it csh,ksh,ash.... I'm trying to write some scripts to execute with /system/bin/sh and need to know the syntax. Thanks #!/system/bin/sh if -e /data/special; then <do something> fi complains about -e not found. if ( -e...

I used rotohammer's backup method to pull the zImage from the device. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850359&highlight=backup+install+kernel

I used the script from http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Extract_initramfs_from_zImage to get the initramfs from the zImage pulled from the device.

yep, i pulled it from the device

you don't have the initramfs source file specified. Put the complete path to the initramfs in the config.

Rotohammer, why in your instructions for flashing is efs.rfs not on the command line, nor is the .pit file or the secondary boot loader (at least thats what I think the Sbl.bin is). Are these not necessary? Thanks

I didn't make any mods as of yet. Just a quest for knowledge and tinkering. Just making sure I can when I need to.

I used make menuconfig to specify the location of the initramfs (compression to none). Do not use the build script above the root as that seemed to mess things up for me. The size of my kernel is approx ~5meg with the initramfs included and ~3 without. Then used Heimdall to push it on.

rfs_fat.ko is in the cpio file of the zImage extract the ko file from the zImage. there is a cpio image that has kernel modules and one of them is the rfs_fat.ko file.

Anyone know where I can get the rfs source tree. I need it to compile a module in my opensuse 11.3 box so I can create the file systems. I mounted the factory.rfs file system: mount -o loop factory.rfs /mnt/factory I cp'd the factory.rfs to factory-new.rfs mount -o loop factory-new.rfs...

info of RFS http://movitool.ntd.homelinux.org/trac/movitool/wiki/RFS Does anybody know any tools to use to package a directory into RFS format?

I built froyo 2.2 with the GT-P1000_Platform.tar.bz2 and SGH-I987_Platform.tar patched on top. This is a noob question. How do I package it up to be pushed on the Tab? I've built the kernel and heimdall-flashed the zImage to the Tab with success but I'm ignorant about the platform details...

thanks that did the trick.

success at last Yay, it works now! thanks roto for the initramfs tip.

I also couldn't find a config.gz in the /proc dir. Does anybody know why it is missing and what has taken its place?

I used rotohammer's method for backing up the AT&T Galaxy Tab and it worked wonderfully. I compiled the GT-P1000_Kernel patched with SGH-I987_Kernel and did a standard make and then flashed the zImage onto the galaxy. It resulted in kernel panic. Does anyone know what parameters to use with make...

I used rotohammer's method for backing up. I would like to put my own kernel on but stock make on the basekernel patched with SGH_I*** from samsung just results in a kernel panic on the galaxy tab. Does anybody know what configuration parameters are needed?

flashed self compiled kernel resulted in panic I flashed a the open source basekernel with the galaxy patch from samsung and got no joy. Nothing but kernel panic. Fortunately I was able to flash the original zImage back. Any insight on configuration parameters to use. I just did a stock make.

/dbdata not mounted in recovery mode a lot of people post about /dbdata error I see that it's not mounted or does the clockworkmod mount it for you? I tried to mount it but su segfaults when I'm in recovery mode. Any way here is my df output in both regular mode and recovery mode. df in...
