To fix size detection during backup of /boot and /recovery, someone post output from terminal command:

Code:

su
ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name

This was fast, thank you :good:
Just finished downloading stock recovery.img to repack with better exfat support than fuse
Meanwhile, you can get a cm build in above links, I just populated

Phil3759 · Sep 29, 2013 at 9:15 PM

Have one question:
i9190 and i9195 can use same kernel? Do they have same /proc/partitions links?

If no, anyone can upload recovery.img from a recent Samsung stock firmware for i9190?

Phil3759 · Sep 29, 2013 at 10:38 PM

New files

- i9195: repack with stock Samsung ramdisk for faster exfat support + enable mount usb storage for external sd
- serranoltexx: cm-10.1 repack
http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=25693#files

Please, test these in both versions:
- adb shell is root?
- adb sideload works?
- mount usb storage for external sd is ok?

Why this: Samsung kernel has support for exfat using kernel modules, which is way faster than fuse, used by cyanogenmod builds
However, on the S4 (i9505), Samsung introduced wired policies that could cause adb shell to fail to have root rights
I also disabled wired Samsung policies to enable flashing cm-10.2 ROMs and maybe get adb shell as root
I am not sure if both above versions have usb storage mount working + adb sideload

A detailed report about each of these will make it possible to improve support

hi thx for the good job.

install with your script doesnt worked on i9195 but with cm10.1 head it worked.

i have not tested things you want because i am not at home. but recovery working. first boot need 3-5min. install rom worked but it doesnt mount my 64gb samsung microsd. only internal.

this one is working install to i9195

Code:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "serranolte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "serranolte" || 
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "serranoltexx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "serranoltexx" || 
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "i9195" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "i9195" || 
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9195" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9195");

I am re-uploading zip files with correct serranolte and serrano3g most often used tags
Should be online soon
Let me know about questions I asked above so that we can look to fix things

proxuser · Sep 30, 2013 at 11:22 PM

tested: philz_touch_5.15.9-i9195.zip

- boot to recovery need 2-3 minutes.
- E:can't mount /external_sd/

mount sdcard and internal (cant test it now but in ubuntu it doesnt show)

- adb shell is root?

look attachaed picture 1

- sideload works ?
yes it works
look attached picture 2

install cm10.2 works, it boots

if boot time be fixed its very usable and fast recovery. thx

Sadly, it is probably a kernel issue. Only fix is custom kernel to fix these, compiled from Samsung sources, with a few fixes to enable exfat loading, root and probably disable flashing sensors which causes the delay

Meanwhile, I will drop to a pure cyanogenmod based ramdisk instead of Samsung

citymen34 · Oct 6, 2013 at 7:47 PM

Any news for i9190 ? Philz please make safe stock kernel

Phil3759 · Oct 9, 2013 at 12:42 AM

So, any more feedback to confirm mounting external storage works or not?

stiffmeister75 · Nov 4, 2010 88 25 0

Hi Phil3759,

For my S4 Mini I9195 only the philz_touch_5.15.9-serranoltexx.zip worked.
With this recovery i could make a backup to the ext. SD, but it took about 25 minutes.
When i flash philz_touch_5.15.9-i9195.zip, then the phone stuck always on booting to recovery
and i have to remove the battery an reflash with odin.

does this work on the GT-i9192?

Thanks

v5.17.8 - cwm 6.0.4.4 *** Beta Untested ***

http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=26444#files

This version is based on a custom kernel compiled from Samsung sources
I enabled exfat/ntfs support through ko modules and adb root (credits to @wanam)
This version is built on cm-10.2 tree and has fixes for a massive backup speed enhancement

Please report for any issue

if not, you might want to change i919x in the title to i9190/i9195 as i9192 falls under the category of i919x...

LoL

I don't even know if i9195 version works
Will wait for feedback. Seems really a non popular device
