[XT925] Advanced Reboot Menu for JB 4.1.2 Motorola ROM

Orphee · Aug 26, 2013

Hello,

I wanted to add Advanced Reboot Menu on my RAZR HD.

Max_choco did it for the RAZR I (+ some other stuffs) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393777

I used his work to build my own framework-res.apk and android.policy.jar

I made a flashable zip for CWM Recovery.

I SUGGEST YOU TO MAKE A FULL NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANYTHING. I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE OF ANY DAMAGE YOU COULD DO TO YOU OR YOUR PHONE. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Modified files are (make a backup at least) :

/system/framework/framework-res.apk
/system/framework/android.policy.jar
/system/framework/android.policy.odex (original deleted with flashable zip)

My ROM is DEODEXED, It should work on ODEXED ROM too, but I can't be sure.

Built with Retail FR 4.1.2 based ROM.

Thanks to max_choco for his work on the Razr I.

Right on. I've been planning on doing this for the 926. This ought to be a big help. Thanks for the hard work.

Yepp did, but it seems like my odex files for android policy and framework-res are lost...

Yes, the flashable zip must delete android.policy.odex as there are deodexed (framework-res.apk does not have odex).
I should had odex to the #1 list

Well alright, so i need to get a hand on the .odex file, do you have it or do you now how to get it

Orphee · Aug 26, 2013 at 12:49 PM

Hope it will help you.
All files come from Retail FR original ROM.

I will let you know

Have you any idea, how to extract stuff from the motorola OTA-updates.

Orphee · Aug 26, 2013 at 1:07 PM

Maybe I'm wrong, but OTA updates are only patch files modifiyng the original from the ROM.
Because of this you must have original ROM to update OTA, any modified file will fail the update.
You need to find the full RSD Lite flashable ROM.

I'm not sure, should i set permissions to 0644?

Cause it's still not booting up

Anyone got an idea??

I got the Flashable RSD-Lite .zip, i managed to get the system_signed, but i cant do nothing with it oO

Yes the files should be 644, but maybe O2 and RTFR aren't compatible... Did you make a nandroid backup ?

Of course not, you now the deal, it always goes wrong when u dont make a backup.

is it possible to compile the odex files from the apk's?
Then i would just pull the apk and make a new one

Orphee · Aug 26, 2013

You have your original O2 rom for RSD Lite ?

If yes, unzip it, open XML file

Here a exemple :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

		<step operation="erase" partition="userdata" />
		<step operation="oem" var="fb_mode_clear" />
         </steps>
</flashing>

Remove from it the following lines :

<step operation="getvar" var="max-download-size" />
<step operation="flash" partition="logo" filename="logo" MD5="6463dc057abf889f3b83a4d3da4cdd1e" /> (if your bootloader is unlocked and you flashed custom boot logo. And don't want it to be restored to WARNING UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER)
<step operation="flash" partition="recovery" filename="recovery_signed" MD5="21cdb4fd40b8d9ebb9aa9565c68eeb5f" /> (Remove if if you are unlocked and have a custom recovery like CWM)
<step operation="erase" partition="userdata" /> (VERY IMPORTANT, WITHOUT REMOVING THIS LINE, YOU LOST ALL YOUR DATA)

Exemple when all stuff removed :

</flashing>

Now flash it with RSD lite (point XML file with RSD Lite) and cross fingers.

Edit : Or you can do the minimum :
Take system_signed file and flash it with fastboot in AP :

fastboot.exe flash system system_signed

This didnt work, it told me something about, errors and so on...

'load_file: could not read 775675996 bytes from 'system_signed'
error: cannot load 'system_signed''

Thats the error i get

Edit: Flashing via RSD Lite, doesn't work because: "Unknown Fastboot command. (oem); phone connected"

Edit2: Got it, just had to delete the line with the oem oO

Edit3: "Failed to flash System: Phone returned False" thats strange oO

Edit4: Maybe it works when i wipe /system oO

Don't know, search for a fastboot for motorola ? seems some guys need this one...

My fastboot comes from android sdk http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r22.0.5-windows.zip

Launch SDK manager and download Android SDK Plateform-tools

thanks for your try dude, but reflash seems to be the better option for me now

Thats the one i use too...

have heard, that there may be some kind of problem because of bootloader-stuf and so on oO

as i said, i try to just install a custom rom now, thought about it for a long time, so this is a good option...

Edit:

It needed RSD 6.x that worked really really good

Is this actually working on xt925 4.1,2, or is there any Xposed Framework apk that works with the motorola xt925?
