I recently flashed SuperSU v2.65 through TWRP since this seems to be the only SuperSU zip that flashes without freezing. Once the phone boots up, I update the SuperSU app through the Play Store, which brings me to v2.76. Upon launching the SuperSU app, it asks me to update the binary and then reboot, which runs smoothly. However, once I try to run Adaway, it gives me an error. Also, when I try uninstalling some apps through Titanium Backup Pro version, the app remains even after a reboot. And before anyone asks, yes, I did install BusyBox before launching both apps. Tell me what I need to do to resolve this. Perhaps TWRP is not flashing SuperSU correctly? I am not sure. Just thinking out loud.
So wait... this means your Axon 7 is basically rooted, right?

According to Root Checker, my device is rooted but I am stumped as to how to get these apps working.

Did you install the latest Adaway for systemless root?
Are the apps asking for root permission?

I'm sorry if I'm taking your post out of context, my apologies if I screw up:
Does that means you already solved your bootloop issue or am I confusing the time stamps with this post and your bootloop post?
If you are past the bootloop, would you be so kind to explain what was wrong and how you fixed it? By updating your bootloop post!!
See, we can't be running around trying to please you, solving you issues because you are frenetically trying to root your phone (no offense intended), that's not how things works. Would you please be courteous and at least update your bootloop post, you did not reply a single time in there and there was people definitely trying to help.

Wow, weird. The phone *thinks* it's rooted. But it definitely is not.
Edit: Actually, I think it is rooted, but nothing persists after a reboot. I can get into /data/data and all the good spots.
But changing DPI/emojis doesn't take.
Someday, in android 4.4.2, i had exactly your problem.
I used kingroot, (chinese characters in su), only i done to fix, was change the kinguser, to superSu pro and ENGLISH CHARACTERS
Weird noh?
You can edit the flashable update.zip with winrar X86, or peazip X86, (ONLY) without extract the content, only you open the zip, and select the files , delete, and swipe the new files with mouse for recopy the zip architecture, ALL WITHOUT EXTRACTING (this is 100% that the zip file will not corrupt)
Much weird!
I learned this by practical facts...
Hehe

that alone can only be pull having root + rebooting , maybe is something else???
P.S. i change the DPI using the following command NO REBOOT Require :
Code:
adb shell wm density 560
or Download the Terminal from Play Store and do
Code:
wm density 560
it will stick at boot, but there's some app that look pretty weird and the Bell/Notification at lock screen is huge LoL and yeah modifying Build.prop for some reason doesn't take place after boot.
I actually wanted to change dpi using textdroider specifically to test changes persisting after a reboot, which they didn't!

yeah for some reason doesn't stick at boot using/modifying build.prop, only way is using either the Terminal or ADB , which instant no reboot and if you reboot will stick.

I would like to start a new thread with topic as listed. It´s just so much easier to do searches this way.
As of now, there is no custom recovery for our device. While the root method from the i9505 also works on our device, custom recoveries do not. The issue seems to be with the display driver.
I would greatly appreciate if someone more knowledgable than me could elaborate on this.
I would be interested in this too. Also whether there is any prospect of rom development for the international active.

Bumping.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to have a separate section for the i9295?
Yes there's a lot less audience for the device, but it is still an S4 model.
Any ideas on who we could contact to get the separate section made? (Not to mention one for the S4 Zoom when it's released)

Here in Hong Kong, as usual you can find it before anywhere in the shady shops in some tech markets. Right now for some 450€, which to be honest isn't a bad price. But Fortress and all the big shops (kind of like Media Markt) still don't sell it. I hope you're right and the buyers will come around to it. I'm holding my purchase until this is cleared up, I woudln't want a phone with no support. I had enough trouble with the S2 and its unsupported Exynos chipset.
hope to see in the near future a custom recovery for this devise
this are the mountpoints?

And attached the log of the first TWRP build thx to Dees_Troy
At the moment the screen didn´t work.
when you run the logfile of the stock recovery, is there anything resembling these lines:
Starting the UI...Pixel format: 1080x1920 @ 32bpp
Pixel format: RGBX_8888
framebuffer: fd 4 (1080 x 1920)
??
One would suspect that´s where the difference is, as everything seems to run except graphics

Ok, so in the TWRP for the i9095 we have:
ro.sf.lcd_density=320
while in stock recovery for the i9295 we have:
ro.sf.lcd_density=480
OK is there anybody here who can compile TWRP and knows where to set lcd density? My head is too small for these things...
Edit: On second thought, this may just be the scale factor for the screen and may not have anything to do with the display driver, so I just might be on the wrong track here... don´t know for sure

Do you have log files for the 9505 booting twrp? Or know where to get them? I'm obviously looking myself.
On the htc one (i run both) there was an issue with the TWRP screen driver after a firmware upgrade. Is it worth contacting the TWRP team to ask them about the drivers?

I was successful in dumping splash.img on sdcard with adb shell as:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblkp018 of=/storage/sdcard1/splash.img
But now what?
How to edit it?
I've searched for many hours but came up with mediatek or HTC guides which is pretty annoying -_-
Tools I've tried so far--> Android Kitchen, Kernel Kitchen, Logo Builder, nbimg tool.
Please help me through this.. I desperately want to make a splash image for my device.

Which splash? Mi Logo splash? Tux Logo splash? Razor kernel splash I assume? If its Tux Logo splash, it is needed for some LCD types to work. For Mi Logo / Razor kernel splash I think, you must edit in kernel level and compile the kernel yourself.
I want to modify bootsplash too but im soo noob to do that,
Never tried by myself, as your reference, try it at your own risk: https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/la/device/qcom/common/tree/display/logo?h=LA.BR.1.2.7_rb1.1

Damn I dont have time to download sources and compile the kernel myself
Any other method to edit?
And yes its razor kernel splash (which is that blue thing ) or The Mi logo splash which appears before bootanimation.
But the thing is razor kernel had its splash and Kuma's cm12.1 dont!
Just that default "Linux's Penguin" appears in corner :3
Hope you got what I wanted to say

I dont want to flash CM13 now. I'm on 12.1.
Leave razorkernel. I'm not talking about 'only' razorkernel. If he is able to do so others should be too and for defferent kernel.
I've seen threads for bootlogo for motoX etc running lollipop
Anyways, do you have ubuntu? so you can run the script Kuma gave us link of.

Okay now here I am, successfully running that script on windows.
It created splash.img successfully but it was too small in size, around 65 KB :|
The one that i dumped was exactly 10MB.
Then also I flashed it but what I got was dessorted Mi logo and the same Penguin.
Now what? I'll see if I can decompile splash.img that I dumped using PIL.
Any help will be appreciated

Sorry for digging up old thread but how did it go? Did you manage to change default splashscreen?
What ive done myself so far was use X-Plore app with SuperSU access to copy splash file from /root/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name to external SD. In X-Plore splash file was 0b but upon copy it was 10MB.
Then i tried to use tool from other topic nbimg to convert splashscreen from 'unknown' format to BMP but result was bad. The tool is supposed to identify image resolution but it didnt know how in Redmi case (tool was orignally designed for HTC device i think) so i tried using w1280 h720 argument but result was like below:
http://i.imgur.com/sxYl65J.png
Well then i timply took any 720x720 image and used that nbimg tool to convert it to splash and then tried to replace it in /root/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name but on reboot it was reverted back to original

No problem for digging old thread.
I did all the things exactly as what you did and had same results.
I still desperately want to make bootlogos for our belowed wt88047 but I just can't @ketut.kumajaya please just one hint for us and we will figure out rest.
I tried that python script on windows too but same broken splash.

[GUIDE] How to Create Custom Splash Screen (Boot Logo) for Redmi 2
No need to edit kernel.. The kernel has the logo that displays after Mi Boot Logo..
The boot logo (splash screen) is present in a separate partition..

Can I try the batman logo.bin file inside the zip I pointed you to, through this method?
Also, will taking a Backup through recovery work for this, or do I have to flash the whole fastbot ROM if this fails?
.
P.S - Found this, but am reluctant to try, as I have office in an hour. (Will it work if I have MM 6.0.1 installed as Primary ROM? As is says for KK in that thread)

Just use his tool no need of any flashable zip or something.
Sorry I didn't get time for your batman logo. I'll try tonight.
Btw, you can make your logo easily with that tool.
After it's compiled, flash is with terminal emulator or just fastboot command
"fastboot flash splash splash.img" and done.

I have a Korean Galaxy S4, model number SHV-E330S. Copied the TWRP recovery.img to /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 but it turned out that 0p10 is the "param" partition, so now the phone cannot connect to cellular network, it shows the circle icon with strike-through. The phone still shows the correct IMEI number when dialing *#06#, and it can connect to wifi networks. Also can boot into recovery mode and wiping the system does not help.
Is there any way to make my phone work?
A bit more context of what I did:
Tried to install cyanogenmod on the phone, but it failed with "Signature verification failed". I thought it is because the stock recovery does not allow to install 3rd party roms.
So I tried to install CWM/TWRP recovery on it using ODIN3 when the phone was in download mode. It did not work, could not boot into CWM, it always started the stock recovery. I saw in the install guides that I can copy the recovery image to the phone with dd if I have root.
So I rooted it with this. It worked. Then I followed the instructions here (came from this site) and executed dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10
This website did not talk about creating a backup of that partition first, so I did not do that. The cellular network probably stopped working at this point, but I only noticed it later.
The partitions on my phone:

If you're rooted you can use the app Flashify to flash the recovery.img. I recommend TWRP though.

Thanks. But it is too late for that, isn't it? The phone is kind of bricked, and flashing a TWRP recovery will not magically unbrick it, right?

How is it bricked?
From what I understood, you don't have signal anymore, but other than that the phone works.
But you are right, flashing a recovery won't make your signal come back, but maybe flashing a modem will.
The param partition is setting where the boot images are stored, from what I've taken in other threads.

As I described in the first message in the thread, I accidentally overwrote the mmcblk0p10 partition which is the "param" partition. Since that the phone cannot connect to cellular network, so cannot make phone calls, cannot receive sms and cannot connect to LTE.
But it shows the correct "IMEI" and the correct "Baseband version" in Settings / About device. It can also connect to wifi network, so I can install/update apps and play games.
I downloaded the stock ROM from samsung-update.com: SKT-E330SKSUCNJ1-20141015090913.zip. It is 1.7GB and it took almost 24 hours to download.
I installed this ROM on the phone with ODIN but it did not help. So the problem is probably not with the "modem" partition since it was overwritten by the stock rom.
And found some details about the param partition here:
PARAM: This is the Parameter partition which contains a number of parameters,
variables and settings of the hardware. Apparently it has an 88 byte header
structure that tell us if the MODEMST1 and MODEMST2 have been backed up to the
FSG and BACKUP partitions, respectively. Furthermore it contain all the debug
settings (DLOW/DMID/DHIG etc), the "triangle" status of whether or not you have
flashed custom ROMs and the flash count (0x3FFE00). Current boot mode in use,
and much more. The info about this partition could easily occupy a book by
itself.

It turns out the phone is working, but the reception is bad: if I go to a better location then it works, I'm able to make and receive calls.
So the problem is not with the software. Maybe the antenna is spoiled? I suspect that because pulling the antenna out does not improve the signal level.

I would try and change the modem.
Otherwise try fixing the antenna if the modem doesn't change anything.

What do you mean "change the modem"?
I guess the modem's firmware was updated because after I reinstalled the original OS the phone updated itself OTA to the latest 5.0.1 android, and now it shows a different Baseband number than before.
Do you think this could still be a software issue?

People say Modems can change reception. Although I never saw any changes myself.
1. Is there anyone with an unlocked bootloader already tried to re-lock the bootloader und succeeded?
2. Anyone tried to re-flash stock B20 after that: boot, recovery and system using @tenfar 's tool?
Theoretically all that should be possiple by now, but is there anyone already succeeded?
My phone won' t be here any soon... Else I would give it a try by myself...
If anyone wants to try it, B20 files from a phone with a locked bootloader can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/untouched-b20-boot-recovery-files-t3443818
I'd be interested to see if any device flags change upon doing so.

Just my words, was going to add that , too :good:
Here's how to check: use "fastboot oem device-info"
That's the status on an unaltered A2017U:
Code:
C:\ADB>fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.062s]
finished. total time: 0.062s
Thx to @DrakenFX
Btw: Did any of that change with ppl that rooted/TWRPed their phones, with or without unlocked bootloader?

and i'm Unlock Bootloader + Rooted + Xposed
I unlocked and immediately re-locked when I did it, just to see. It worked fine. Then I unlocked again, and proceeded to install TWRP, root, and xposed. So far, the only thing keeping me from returning to complete stock if I need to is the b20 bootloader. I haven't tried to reflash back, as I have no need right now. Hopefully, it stays that way.
Thx mate, you're the first to confirm that relocking actually works

Would be nice if someone tried to return to full stock after B20_boot, just to know if it works (it should, but let's confirm it)

It's confusing! We have a lot of cross-talking in these threads.
If you can give me a link to the OTA, I can add it to my "stock B20" thread.

I am not sure what this fastboot image is for, i have only seen it used with Asus firmware. it is probably the fastboot command set. The bootloader is on the /aboot partition i believe and in the China firmwares thats the emmc_appsboot.mbn file. Looking at text in aboot aftre B20_Boot, it will look at fbop to see what command are available so aboot is more dynamic now then in Lollipop. I have not seen the aboot patched yet in our OTAs but unlocking might change it so it would be nice if we can dump it from unlocked for comparing with one we have on idlekernel. Not sure if it can be dumped from OS with root via dd or if it needs to be done from recovery via adb if TWRP does not recognize the partition

You mind typing the command here so I can copy and paste to try pulling the aboot from terminal?

If using adb, otherwise just last two lines in terminal
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aboot of=/sdcard/aboot.bin
you can probably dump others as well for backup if you want to. That image of your screen you posted when first BL OTA would not flash had the full list i think. Some are unique to phone and hold IMEI and keystore.

cause its not easy for one or u would of released a rom already 2 we dont have original source code for device so that slows progress 3 if we go to build one we have to modify a source from another device. i tried porting it was fail everytime, but u can always try to make one. pick one you like and port it or build it. im working on lineage atm someone else resurrection remix. and thats all i think

Start here, get your system dump and create a fresh device tree on github https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450045 then you will have a base for cm, rr whatever you choose to build. If you want to build aosp source would be needed I believe or backported but a system dump will literally give you the same files that you would gain from building from source, I just went through this myself. Just trying to help, follow the guide and if you need help with a device tree I could try and help. good luck ?

go for it as u will have noticed if u read the other thread we have dumped the system i have even dumped all partitions. just cause u have the files doesnt mean u can click here and magic full working os comes out. without original source code we have to make changes to the source from a device with similiar hardware. as well as make sure correct paths to files that the other source did not include. this is due to other phones sometimes have different file structures. i dunno bout anyone else but im doing my best and going as fast as i can without just 100% fail. uploading my source i made to build on my server if it boots after i build it good if everything works awesome if not if it boots then i can go through check whats missing

wasnt being rude i modified my last post being i was in a hurry and didnt type it out so well. i was just saying man if u know the easy way to make us a rom. go for it alot of people will thank you. if not give us time its not a easy process. also by the way my first time making a rom well building from source i tried to port for about week and a half on windows that didnt work. now im using linux so hope that gives more promising results. as well building it also takes some time why i switched to using my server to compile it uploading files still got 50 gig to go. after i get a wroking one im going to try and fix our twrp to allow for those who want stock to do ota updates from twrp and backup cust and other partitions if feel a need too. hope u dont take this as being rude as it providing info and and letting you know if u can build one then thats awesome. if not give people time heres a list of the partitions

While i appreciate the info and don't worry about it try this at least to get started. Look up @superR's kitchen and take your files, throw down the 10 bucks and get the donate version with plugins, which i can say personally helps a ton or Android Studio maybe? and take what you have and make a ROM that way although the kitchen is like ly the easiest route. You are well on your way! Im passing through and trying to help, tonight ill download the files you have and see what i can piece together if you want but obviously i can't make any promises. Providing info like you did is the way to go ? link me to your files either in a pm or here and ill see what i can do.

madvane20,
You mentioned earlier that we don't have source code. I checked the Huawei site and found the source code posted. Perhaps Huawei silently posted it without anyone noticing because people stop checking.
H1611 Huawei Ascend XT, Texas-A1(H1611), Android6.0, EMUI4.1
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/opens...Type=openSourceSoftware&pageSize=10&curPage=1
Search for "ascend" and it shows up as the only result. It contains kernel.tar.gz at 168 MB along with a readme.txt on how to build it. I extracted a *.c file to make sure it has real source code, and it sure does.
Perhaps this will help with development. Do you think this is the last piece we need to get it all going? If so, I am ready to go out and buy one!
Thanks for keeping it going.

Awesome that you found this, Huawei has released the source code. Should be easier to compile a ROM and tweak TWRP now.
In the search box, indeed type Ascend and it comes up from the above link
Awesome! Here's the direct download link if anyone wants to skip the search:

It's taking time but it will come. We have a couple devs that are not all that experienced and learning as they go. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.
One thing people forget it's time consuming (especially when you are just learning) and everyone expects it for nothing. The devs do it as a hobby in their free time. If we want an experienced dev and want results, the answer is simple. Get as many people as we can, pool some money together and pay someone with all that knowledge for their time.
Then we would have some custom Roms ASAP... Three XDA members that I know of are working on it and once we have something I hope many of us will donate to thank them for their efforts.
I thought about starting a bounty to collect funds and pay someone. If you really know what you are doing it does not take very long. Say 100 members at $5 a pop, that would get us some pretty good results and what you are asking for
What do you not currently have which you expect to gain from a custom ROM?
