Help Please ....

Here what i do,

Before, im at 2.2 Froyo stock EA24

I flash SPH-P100.EF17.SECURE.REV07-FULL.tar thru odin with pit file and repartition check. Pass and reboot , i have my GB online.

Continue to download mode, and flash stock-ef17-kernel-root-cwm.tar , pass and automatically reboot to CWM.

And now im stuck at CWM.
when i click reboot system now, reboot and back to CWM.

i tried to backup thru CWM it says
Backing up boot image...
Backing up recovery image...
Backup up system...
Can't mount /system

I tried to instal zip , stock-ef17-rom-deodex-cwm-v1.zip

Installing and success, at the end it says "Please reboot system now" (or i forgo, asking me to reboot)

Reboot and back to CWM.

do i missed something?

what should i do?
I want this "Full Stock EF17 Rom: ClockworkMod Flashable, Deodexed, Zip Aligned, & Optimized"

thx before.

for what you want to do grab the other tar (stock-ef17-root-cwm-odin-tar-pkg.zip) and flash that....then just reboot into cwm and flash the rom

i just had a problem flashing one of the tars so let me investigate...ill get you fixed up

OMG , i must have missed this "stock-ef17-root-cwm-odin-tar-pkg.zip"

im sorry men, its because it was so much to read, its make myself dizzy.

okay then i'll wait.

Rodderik · Sep 25, 2011

i might getting rid of the pre-rooted tar...i have to look into it some more

try starting over with the files you have

odin stock tar (dont have to repartition again)
odin kernel with cwm
flash rom

Rodderik · Sep 25, 2011

ok i just did the whole process like you said and the tar is fine...i removed the prerooted tar because it uses the stock recovery to clear data after it flashes but in order for redirector to work it breaks this tar from working...i'd rather have redirector

odin stock tar (repartition if you haven't already)
odin kernel
flash rom

edit: i also did an advanced restore on my data and it's all good

Are you sure mate?

this is what i did and stuck at CWM

I did this two times, IMO, i cant get along with CWM if i dont have root access, am i right?

so i think i need the prerooted TAR.

clockworkmod and root are all self contained in the kernel

rejanmanis · Sep 25, 2011

i dont think u have a problem with your "prerooted Tar pkg"

I have it before u pulled out the link.

I flash prerooted tar with odin,
flash kernel with odin,
flash rfs to ext4 with CWM
flash the stock-ef17-rom-deodex-cwm-v1 with CWM.

Now i GB 2.3.4 EF17 deodex, zipalign & optimize
with kernel version 2.6.35.7 rodderik@devphone #1

cheers

Rodderik · Sep 25, 2011

awesome...i pulled the prerooted tar because it didnt clear all the data like it should...i was trying to a save a step

glad u got it all working...enjoy the speedier tab

alright dude, thx so much

i'll try to pull out the framework.apk and make a battery mod and a bit status bar mod, i think UOT will help with theming stuff

Can a stock GB be rooted by just flashing this kernel?

jocala said:

yes it can...just make note of the cwm restore bug if you haven't ever repartitioned (you have to odin the kernel if you restore for it to work)...more info in original post

base on my experience, i doubt it. That's make me stuck at CWM.
AFAIK, we need rooted GB 2.3.4 to be able to use the CWM.

But u still have to listen what the Boss said

Let us know what happen.

tpike · Sep 25, 2011

Rodderik is right. If you're not putting root in the kernel then everytime you flash a rom you have to worry if you're going to lose root. Since most people don't get as flash happy with kernels you keep the deeper part of your system rooted and static, but flash the stuff that's w one level closer to the user(the ROM). As you can see by the signature, this isn't Rodderiks first kernel. Either will work, this just makes the roms one small bit easier to develop.

I will vouch for Rodderrick I flashed his Kernel and Stock Rom Yesterday, CWM works flawlessly, ext4 is quite a bit of speed improvement, flows much nicer, I can't wait for a custom rom.

On another note, I tried using your kernel with a few other roms, it seems to only work with Stock rom.. Silly me tried using it with the Honeycomb rom to see if it may've allowed 3G, caused boot loops, and forced closes with oldmacnuts better than life, future echos. I wouldn't expect a kernel to be universal to all roms, but this kernel seems to do the trick for me, who stayed on stock rom since purchase of galaxy tab.

Thanks Rodderick,you're awesome, you've helped me with my tab more than you know!

i hope the kernel and pretty much all future kernels based off the basic one i've put together will remain compatible with any rom that comes out (especially those based off the stock rom i've put together in the OP). obviously the kernel isn't build for honeycomb or cyanogenmod (yet). i'll look at oldmacnut's rom and see if i can get it working with the kernel.

Rodderik · Sep 25, 2011

as far as root you can see on github that root, cwm, and superuser are all self contained in the kernel

https://github.com/Rodderik/android_kernel_samsung_sprinttab/commits/master

so yes flashing just the kernel over stock unrooted gingerbread will give you root, clockworkmod, and ext4 support

Samba Filesharing is saying it cannot find a way to execute shell commands on the device. Never happened on stock rom before. Installed busybox and terminal emulator...still no go. ???

jocala · Sep 25, 2011

Good job!

I just finished my 2nd install of a rooted stock, followed by an ext4 conversion.

On first boot, CWM started. Ignoring this, I rebooted and found my user data & installed apps were intact, causing some problems. Just to be safe, I started again from scratch and when my first boot landed into CWM, I wiped data, cache & dalvic, then rebooted.

All appears to be well so far. Thanks for a stellar job!
