[TOOL]Android Tool v2.0 (Beta) - Fixed - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hello, This is a tool that takes alot of mods and fixes and puts them into one application. I call it Android Tools. This is a Beta version, although everything works, i can still add more and change up stuff. Oh yeah you need the AndroidSDK to run this program because all of them either run with adb or fastboot.
P.S Criticism would help alot but please be constructive. If you have any ideas on what to add just post a comment ill see what i can do
Download:
v1.0:http://www.4shared.com/file/150378603/e7fa116e/Android_Tools_v10.html

v2.0: http://www.4shared.com/file/153023506/3d4b3bfa/Android_Tool_v20.html
P.S The Program has the nagging thing up top because its not registred. Please if you like the interface tell me and ill buy the license and get rid of that nagging thing. If you think the interface is ugly tell me so i won't buy Thank you

I am going to guess by terminal you mean the one on the computer....
nope you need the sdk to sign any type of file. Because you need stuff within the sdk to run the signing tool (the one i am using)

Will give it a run and tell you what i think

Thanks Ace! Well for me my rom boots up in less then 3 mins. Before I install any rom at all I do the following setups:
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe SD: dalvik-cache
3.part SD: fat32+ext2+swap
4.Repair ext filesystem
5. convert ext2 to ext3
I'm using RA-dream-v1.2.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566669&highlight=recovery+image
Dev Question!
Have a question for Dev's. How would one edit the libandroid_runtime file without the source?
Thanks!!!
Mammon, I think you should put your change-log on top of Diaz's since yours is more recent.
As for the ROM it feels smooth to me but I'll be waiting on at least a GPS and Rotation fix before I can commit to this. Pulse has been my favorite and I'm hoping you can make a monster out of it.
any idea when the reboot after call will be fixed, it is thr only thing keeping me from this rom

I hope soon. I have found a coding mistake made by huawei its related to our 'reboot after call' issue.
This is the reason I would like to know how to edit a lib.so file without the source code.
You could try contacting T-mobile and see if you could get them to talk to Huawei about getting the source for the library released so you can fix it. Telling them what the coding mistake is might help, even if they don't release the source they may fix the error and release it as part of a future Pulse update that you could use. The only other suggestion I've got is to decompile the library and see if you can track the problem down and fix it with a hex editor, if its even possible to do that without messing up all the internal offsets in the code. Not an easy task.

SDCARD Partitioning Tutorial.
I know that with EXT4, partitioning the sdcard can be a hassle. Here's a little workaround to help you get it partitioned the easiest way I know without having to mount systems and such in Terminal Emulator. This way makes you flash 2 seperate recoveries, but I would rather do this than the other methods which could take upwards of a half hour or even longer. I've seen people that were working on it for a couple hours. Without further adieu:
NOTE: If you are running RFS, just follow step 1. and you'll be done. If you are running EXT4, skip right to step 2. and follow from there.
1. If you are running RFS, then you do not need to follow any other steps. In the green CWM2.5.5 recovery, just go to "advanced" in recovery and choose the Partition option. It's going to give you two questions for sizes that you want. The first size is going to be the ext size. For this it will give you a few options, but I don't recommend choosing anything below 512. You will see all the options when they pop up, just choose what you feel most comfortable with. The next thing it's going to tell you to select is the swap size. I again don't recommend choosing anything below 128 for this option. You will again see a list of options, so choose what you feel most comfortable with.
2. If you are running EXT4, then follow these steps and you'll be up and running with your new partition very soon. First thing you need to do is gather all the tools you're going to need. Here are the list of tools you will need:
A. One Click Root & Recovery 2.5.5
B. One Click Root & Recovery 3.0.0.6
Quite the long list huh? lol ...I told you it's gonna be simple lol.
Download both of these files (if you don't have one or the other already) and extract them to an easy to find location on your computer somewhere.
3. Ok, you're going to do this just the same as you would if you were rooting your phone from a stock state. And to answer your question that's running through your head right now, No, this will not return you to RFS. You will still be on EXT4 the entire time, so there's not real need to backup your sdcard or worry about having to sit through the backup&restore again. Once again, to be very clear... Even though you are flashing cwm2.5.5 recovery, you will REMAIN EXT4. So let's continue. Make sure USB Debugging is on and plug your phone into your computer. Do NOT mount the sdcard, just have the phone plugged in. Open the One Click Root & Recovery 2.5.5, and run the program. When it's finished, your phone will reboot. Do NOT unplug it until the script is complete. The script will say "Operation Complete. Hit any button to continue" or something along those lines. Just hit a button and the script will automatically close. You can now reboot into recovery and you will see the 2.5.5 recovery with the green letters. If you don't have the green letters, then you didn't run the right One Click, and you should start over using the correct one lol . For those that successfully flashed the 2.5.5 recovery, move on to step 4.
4. If you have the green letters, then we'll continue, if not, repeat step 3. with the correct one click lol. Now that you have the green letters, revert to step 1. When you're finished following the same instructions from step 1, move on to step 5. If you have any issues with anything from step 1. (which you shouldn't, but if you do) click here to go to Mibbit's irc chat website. Along the top left side you will see 2 tabs labeled "Home" and "Connect". Make sure you are on the tab that says "Home". When on the tab labeled "Home", you will see the box in the middle of the page. Right beside the letters "IRC:" is a dropdown box. You're going to click on the dropdown arrow and select "EFNET". Next, you're going to enter your nickname, and finally, beside "channel:" type "#viper" and select "Go". That will bring you to Team Vipers chat where one of us will be able to help you.
5. Now that you are partitioned, it's time to restore the EXT4 recovery. If you do not restore the EXT4 recovery, you will not be able to flash any new ROM's or Kernels, so you MUST restore the correct recovery. To do so, you simply do the same steps. Make sure USB Debugging is turned on and plug your phone in. You do NOT need to mount. Now you simply run the 3.0.0.6 One Click Root & Recovery. Let it run through it's process and it will reboot itself. Do NOT exit out of the command prompt until it says "finished, press any key to continue". Once your phone reboots, you can then reboot into recovery and you will see that you have the orange letters again. When you see the orange letters, you now have a partitioned sdcard and you are back on the correct recovery.
**ONCE THE KERNEL IS RELEASED (Which should be within the next 24 hours as long as my testers don't see any issues) THEN MOVE ON TO STEP 6.**
6. Now that you're partitioned, the only thing left to do is flash the kernel. Connect your phone to your computer and copy the Kernel to your sdcard if you have not done so already. To flash it, just choose "Install zip from sdcard" followed by "Choose zip from sdcard" and simply navigate to where you stored it on your sdcard. That's all. It's quite quick and painless and you should be able to do it all within 10-15 minutes.

Do i sense a 3.0.1 update to be sweet! or is the current 3.0 this version?
Hi BT. Thanks for the great ROM. I am using 3.0 right now. What is the difference between 3.0 and 3.0.1? Thanks. Keep up the great work! And one quick question. When I try to install lagfix, everythiing works besides the last step, installing viperspeed. It says I cant install it because I dont have enough room. but I have 185MB free. any ideas?
Link? I hope it's not there or else I'll feel more jerky than usual. Oh and super-thanks for those file names on the battery mods, so important... I have a mess of files like GREENBATMODTHISTHAT with no versions or anything and I guess I didn't realize that I needed to keep mods organized by ROM.

3.0.1 is just a new name for it so if we make updates there's less confusion... It's still the same as 3.0, but hopefully this will eliminate some questions in the thread lol.
3.0.1 = 3.0 ...No new updates yet.
BUT!!!
Rodderik did make the battery mods!, check them out!

I think 3.0.1 is just the updated version of 3.0.
3.0.1 does have the aosp lock screen the 4g is fixed
and couple other things... At least that i think lol
Hope that helps

Can you please clarify this for me, because I tried earlier and it gave an error when trying to install the terminal. Also I have used linux before but never used a terminal on a phone before lol...can you write down a few steps for us newbies
Again Thank you for your work and to your team
Hey BT there is a app called WidgerLocker Lockscreen which lets you put any widget/app i believe on you lock screen that might be helpful i think..
Just installed it and brought back the aosp lock screen might wanna check it out... Send me a pm of ur email so i can send u the apk cause its a paid app
Another quick question BT, what are the other options for in the lagfix? Are they for future upgrades or not necessary at all?
Hey BT I just want to thank you for all your hard work and your great rom. I hope this hasn't been answered but is it necessary to remove my original root before flashing any of your roms? I have flashed most all of them and I have not deleted it. I'm not having any problems with 3.0. Thank you....

nope you don't have to...just wipe 3x, wipe cache 2x, and wipe dalvik cache ONCE and flash the rom then you are good to go (assuming you are using the correct modem and if not then flash it first with odin)

Difference from V2 released on 2012-02-20:
- USB Mass Storage is working!
- you can now move apps to internal flash space (internal "SD")
- added videochat libraries (might fix videochat issues)
- fixed RW permissions for external SD, usb flash
- added permissions to enable more market apps (thanks Reichi!)
- updated ICS apps
- newer base files from CUBE
Notes, bugs:
If you're still running Android 2.3 and thinking about switching to latest (ICS) version then you should be aware of these (major) changes/bugs cube introduced in ICS:
- application screen size is reduced - bottom status bar is visible most of the time (but also hides in ICS aware apps)
- you need to disable USB debug mode to be able to access filesystem on U9GT2
-MTP/PTP is slow and unstable -> but now mass storage is back!
- Bluetooth still doesn't work (unchecked for 1.08)
- Video chat doesn't work (unchecked for 1.08)
Enjoy!

Official CUBE U9GT2 Android 4.0.1:
Short demo of CUBE's official 4.0.3 version:
Thank you so much
This is based on the leaked (beta) V1.05, right?
You're welcome.
This mod is based on version 1.05 released 2011.12.29. I know there were also two leaked betas before it (12/12 and 12/22) but I do not know if this one is also a beta as download from official 51cube.com site is still unavailable...
Thanks for the info

I believe the official V1.05 was never available, so I am GUESSING this one is also "just" a beta version
Let's hope Cube will make their download available soon, maybe we'll see some differences in the fw?
Anyway, GREAT JOB, thank you so much for your work
Thx will try it out right away
Hi,
really great work - many thanks for this! Could you please post a step-by-step guide explaining what you have done to get this image rooted? Linux Tools for doing this are in place. Is it just enough to include the su binary into the image?
Thanks in advance,

I used RK29xxImageTools kindly provided by wendal: www[dot]slatedroid[dot]com/topic/19808-rk29xx-imagetools-v21/ (sorry about the bad url - still few posts short to write proper urls...forum rules)
Steps:
1. Downloaded U9GT2 v4.0.3 20111229.img, gapps-ics-20111125-2 (google apps for ICS from cyanogenmod), Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed, file expert apk
2. Unpacked img with rk image tools
3. Started virtual machine with ubuntu, mounted system.img as EXT3 loop device
4. Removed su from /xbin
5. Removed angry birds etc. from /app, also removed all libs from those apks in /lib folder. I did this to gain necessary space for google apps without resizing the actual img.
6. Added/replaced google apps apks
7. Removed provision.apk which conflicted with SetupWizzard
8. Added Superuser.apk to /app
9. Copied proper su to /bin; added proper file permissions (rws-rx-rx) - this is very important for root to work.
10. Edited /build.prop: added "ro.config.hw_hasbootsound=false" to silence the boot sound (which was terribly annoying me ) and changed wpa supplicant scan interval from 15 to 180s (this probably saves some battery but annoys people with bad signals...but you can change the scan interval "post mortem" with ROM Toolbox...see "build.prop tweaks").
10. unmounted system.img
11. Used "pack" option in rkimagetools
I think this covers it all...
Hello,
Thank you for this great job, I've updated my U9GT2 with your firmware, it works well ! that's really great from you, thank you for that.
I have two questions thought :
- I tried to install Google Maps and Google Docs with the apk, but I have then some conflicts with my google accounts... I cannot use the apps.
Do you think it will work properly if I create my own system image with Maps and Docs apk included ?
- I found your scripts on your other topics, I will test it : I'm currently installing Ubuntu but can you tell me which file I have to modify so as to change the tablet name, "CUBE U9GT2" ?
Thank you very much ! Have a nice day

If it doesn't work now, putting those files to system.img won't change it... Which Maps and Docs apks did you use? They need to be ICS version... Try google maps from gapps-ics-20111125-2.zip pack (see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356228

To change the name you need to edit build.prop file. But be warned! It is very easy to brick your device...so read extensively about android modding before testing the mod on your device (or anyone else's)...
Good luck!
Firmware flash fails

The 4.0.3 firmware is GREAT except that Adobe Flash Player does not seem to work with Opera Mobile. However, Flash does load really slowly in the stock browser though and the image quality is really bad.
To get Opera Mobile working with Flash, I tried removing Flash and Opera Mobile, then installing Flash then Opera Mobile from Android Market, but nothing works. Any ideas?
I also notice that adhoc WiFi is not supported.
Can anyone configure static IP addresses for each WiFi profile? I would like to do so without relying on 3rd part apps.
Thanks!
Alriiiiiight I did it !! Thank you man, you've been a great help ! It took me quite a long time, but I'm really happy
I just have some auxiliary questions :
- do you know how to change the disposal of the apps on the first start ? Which apps appear on which screen, and their layout ?
- do you know how to change the default background ?
I've checked this topic, but it's not very clear... I can't find more info ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748095

Thank's for this great rom
It's working nearly perfect for me, but would it possible, to get an improved build.prop? (or all whats neccessary to fix market problems..best example is the missing facebook app or the boat browser)
I tried some differnt changes while comparing your build.prop an the one from an ASOP Samsung Galaxy Nexus Rom (also android ics 4.0.3) but I havn't the desired profit(still no changes).
thanks in advance,

Yes, that would be great ! I'm also trying to do that, but I do not manage to do it...
And I'm also trying to modifiy the "splash" screen, but I cannot find any "initlogo.rle" file on the boot.img, and even more, whenever I unpack, edit, and re-pack the boot.img file with unpack-bootimg.pl and repack-bootimg.pl (when I try to add my own initlogo.rle, for instance) the tablet does not start anymore...
Any idea of how to do it ? You would be awesome
Thank you !
well i found something other^^... would it be possible to get this (Amzon Silk Browser) includet in the next release? or is there maybe a workaround how to get it work with our ics verison?

[APP] Boot Manager Pro - Dual boot unlimited ROMS! [WIP]

Hola peoples!!! Ok so I just thought I'd create my own thread on this matter. Mustangtim started one in apps and themes (and here is the link to that thread) but since I'm taking over this project it was brought to our attention that this should be in the dev section as its no longer just an app.. I am actually tearing .imgs apart trying to figure out what the deuce.
FIRST OFF THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS, WE ARE NOT YET FULLY SUPPORTED. HOWERVER I'M DOING MY BEST TO CHANGE THAT.
Secondly if you want to help get this started please visit the market and grab the app here. Its a $3 dollar app for unlimited amount of roms, based on your SD card storage capacity anyway. And speaking of which you need AT LEAST a class 4 or better SD card to make this run smoothly.
Also feel free to visit the forums at http://forum.init2winitapps.com/
Ok so here it is, Boot Manager Pro. Its been a long time coming for the g2x to dual boot. First off let me say long story short, I currently have a bootable SD Rom, known as ROM1. I have yet to be able to recreate my findings tho. But it works and it doesnt brick at all. However it is a bit laggy on my class 4 SD card. Luckily I've already done my research on this project as there are many threads of such awesome info so I'm just going to be lazy about it and quote the good people of xda versus re-writing it based off of their info.
ChrisDDD said:
So here's a very basic description of how it works... It doesn't partition your SD card, it just creates a folder of its own, and then sub-folders to hold the different roms you install. When you install a rom, it basically creates images of the usual Android partitions - system, data, cache, & boot. These are standard .img files, just like the ones Clockwork creates when you do a backup. After the images are created and wiped (formatted, which you should do initially) it installs your rom into these essentially the same way as Clockwork installs a rom to your phone's actual partitions. I assume it modifies the kernel that comes with each rom to mount the image files on the SD card instead of the phone's partitions.
When you want to boot a rom, it just replaces your current boot image with the modified one and restarts the phone. With the modified boot image, the system, data and cache images on the SD card are mounted to the correct locations and Android starts up none the wiser. The rom will initially run a little slow, because the SD card is slower than the internal memory, but after things get cached it speed up considerably.
When you want to reboot to another rom, or back to the phone's rom, Boot Manager again swaps boot images that mount the desired rom's partitions (in the case of the phone's rom) or files (in the case of an SD card installed rom).
When you first run Boot Manager, it makes a Clockwork flash able backup of your current boot image, which you can flash if a rom hangs or loops on startup. Alternatively, you can also simply boot into recovery and do an advanced restore, choosing just the boot image to restore from a backup. It accomplishes the exact same thing.
It can be a little hit or miss, with some roms just plain refusing to start through Boot Manager, but it does work and when it does, it's pretty amazing given what it's actually doing.

Click to collapse
So basically upon installing the app you need to setup your phone so that way you can properly install a ROM, follow these steps:
1. Go into the supersu(or superuser app) and then go to settings then disable logging or click none.
2. Then go into the BMP app and press the menu button on your phone, not the app, and go to settings. Once in settings put a check mark in force large boot.img, screen on during install, and then go into variables, leave tegra alone but change the sdcard block to show mmcblk1p1. Then press finish and let the app restart. By the way I didnt change any of the sizes of the .imgs but feel free to do so. But be warned do not decrease the size of the system.img only increase it, if desired.
3.Then after you've done the above you need to setup the phone rom. Click on 'Setup Phone' under phone rom and follow that process to setup your phone rom.
4. Once your phone rom is setup you may begin to install a zip to rom1 or rom2 or whatever slot you want. This is the tricky part. I have done tons of reading and most people say that if your using CWM, which us g2x'ers do, then you will probably have a better chance of getting a bootable rom by restoring from a nandroid backup you did versus installing new.
5. So after you decide which path you will take, nandroid backup or fresh rom install, choose install. If you choose a fresh rom, wipe system, data, and cache right away. If nandroid, then wipe after the install.
6. Now once you have clicked install put your phone down, DONT MESS WITH YOUR PHONE AT ALL! PUT IT DOWN AND WALK AWAY OR SOMETHING! Don’t mess with it, text from it, xda from it, dont even use the screen as a mirror!!!! lol seriously the app is picky and while under the .img creation process you want nothing to mess that up or you will not get it booted. You may however drag down the notifications bar to follow the progress of the install.
7. Once its complete, tap the install complete notification in the notification bar and let the app do its thing to finalize the install and get you back to your rom selection screen. Now if you did a nandroid back up here is where you click 'manage slot' and then factory reset the backup you did. Just do it, dont ask why.
7.1 Also so if you desire to install gapps and/or possibly a different kernel, now would be the time to do so while your here. I have read mixed reviews of doing this process right after the rom installs. However when I set up my rom1, I booted into it first all happily then realized I had no gapps. So I had to reinstall BMP on rom1 then boot back to phone rom and then I installed GB gapps and had no issues booting back into rom1.
8. Once the above steps are done if your feelin lucky go ahead and tap on boot the rom you installed, and if all goes well it will boot up.
9. If it boots up you need to post confirmation here!!! Provided info such as phone rom and the info on the sd rom you used and slot number and such.
Hopefully it will just work for you. I have done all the above steps using HFP 2.1 as my phone rom and only been able to get 1 bootable rom. Being it was for testing I used HFP as my phone rom and as well as my rom1.
So if the above steps dont wortk out for you and your boot lopped or what ever, then turn your phone off and reboot into cwm. You have 2 options to resolve the boot issue you just created. 1, you may go to restore then advanced restore then restore your boot. Or 2. select install a zip and nav to the bootmanager folder then phone rom then flash the update zip there.. then reboot and you should be back at your phone rom.
Here is a basic run down of everything that I have done so far:
When I first started working on this project I wasn’t doing any dev'ing to change any of the stuff in the boot.img. I just changed settings in the app per all the research I did. So when all was said and done I restored HFP 2.1 to ROM1 and it actually booted!! And it works lovely btw.. I can still boot into this rom today. I then decided to pass the word and ways that I created the working rom1, well I nor anyone else I passed the info to was able to get it working. Only one other person was able to confirm that rom1 works but only after I copied all my rom1 info and sent it to him for testing.. and he was able to boot into my created rom1… As I see it, it was a blue moon event that I have yet to repeat. So I thought eff it lets do some dev'in so I unpacked the boot.img from rom1 then compared that to the unpacked boot.img from rom2 that I created in my trial and error experiences. So in doing so I noticed 4 differences; 1, the mount points obviously, 2, in the sbin folder had a ueventd file from the working rom1 was a text file viewable by gedit in ubuntu. In rom2 it was just a non-readable file. 3, in the init.rc file was also missing a chmod command for system, (the command is in rom1 but not rom2) and 4, there was a ueventd.tegra file that was in rom1 that wasn’t in rom2, but everything else is the same. So I decided to plug and play with the differences to see if she boots and no go. I don’t understand why its boot looping because I am using the same rom as phone rom as for rom1 and rom2. So it boot looped. So I had to restore my boot.img many times in cwm.
So then I said eff it lets do some more research, then I noticed in the .zips folder plus the individual rom folder there are .zips that will let you flash via cwm if you get boot loops and 'should' get you booting to your desired sdrom. I then tried that way and no go.. so then I opened up the zip and had a look at the internals.. first there is the moveboot.sh file that the app runs in cwm flash the given boot.img. I then checked out the meta-inf and opened up the updater-script thinking that the app wasn’t actually flashing the boot.img which is why it loops... Well I think im half way right. However the script itself is lil dodgy... first thing I noticed was at the end of the script they have a command to cp the log from /tmp to /sdcard/bootmanager well the command was wrong so it never copied the log. So I fixed that. I also saw that the assert command was pointing to ‘boot’ instead of mmcblk0p5, so I changed that too. Then I decided to do away with the assert command and the moveboot.sh file they have going on to utilize the same functions that the kernel zips use, which is a kernel folder that holds the boot.img and a run_program that dd's the boot.img to 0p5. plus I even updated the update-binary that the file uses. I used the one from the g2x nullifier as I know that one was made for our phone and should have no issues.. plus there was a noticeable difference in the sizes of the provided binary to that replaced binary. So with the updated.zip file I then rebooted into cwm to flash that being that I was using a different command to flash the boot.img as well as the other changed stuff and still it boot looped. So as of now the only thing I don’t think ive done was grab the boot.img from rom1 then change the mount points, only change that, and then use that for rom2 and see if it boots. I don’t think I’ve done that yet. But every dam process I do I get boot loops. So basically I have came to the conclusion that it’s now NOT a boot.img issue being that I have done everything to change the boot.img and to make sure it flashes, which it does indeed and now creates the log too… I think maybe it has issues with the system.img as that’s what comes next in the boot process. But that’s just my hypothesis. I won’t be able to confirm this till I liberate rom1’s boot.img then change the mount points to point to rom2 and then see if it boots.. if it don’t work then that would mean to me that there is an issue with system.img created. But that’s just my hypothesis…
What I don’t understand is why the eff when I didnt hack the app I got a working sd-rom, but when I do change some stuff with it still don’t work!!???!! I guess maybe ill just edit/hack the apk to see what’s up.. This is getting way more complicated than it needs to be, since it worked prior to all my major changes to the script its using for flashing and the boot.img and what not. Anyone have any ideas feel free to add them.
My next steps are to edit rom1 boot.img one last time to change the mount points to point to rom2 and then if that’s a no go then it’s got to be the system.img that’s getting created. By the way this whole process I have only been restoring my nandroid backup for HFP 2.1. I have not attempted to flash new as with thru my research more times than not people would get a bootable rom via restoring versus flashing new.. so if anyone wishes to experience an sd rom let me know, ill send you a link to download my rom1 to get it going. Mind you that its not perfect and you need a class 4 or better sdcard. Everything works but it just takes a bit longer to load things and get things cached as its on the sdcard and not nand. Also if you have any input or are wishing to help pm me I need more heads to get this sorted as I can’t be the only one who knows how to edit scripts and unpack imgs and such. Either way I will continue to do this until I get it right damit!!! Oh and I just ordered a class 10 sdcard to help with this process…
That was copied from the other thread that mustangtim started. Last night when I went home the first thing I did was change the mount points on rom1 to reflect rom2, I changed nada else, then I tried to boot it... it boot looped. So maybe its a permissions issue or the system.img.
So just as a proof of concept and before anyone calls bs on my work/findings Here is the link to my rom1 that boots and is HFP2.1. *Update, 'm just going to
leave it on my DB for now till I find something better I guess. xda wont let me attach the file since its 233MB. Oh well here is the link :
Code:
[URL="http://db.tt/eBZwrOrs"][U][B]Here it is, my Rom1 HFP 2.1[/B][/U][/URL].
I have also attached my updated script file to flash back to rom1, for now.
The boot.img points to rom1 instead of phone rom, ill add to phone rom
as well, just not the now. :) Feel free to flash this via cwm versus
restoring...
Also this is part of the this: the ‘.zips’ folder you need to replace the file in
that folder as well. It’s an update file for rom1 to flash the boot.img.
..
If you’re going to use this you need install a random rom to rom1 then replace those created files in rom1 with these files in the 7z file..
So I am doing this new thread to get the devs or people with know how to help me out with my findings. I have edited the boot.img so much I could pretty much re-write everything in there by now including using magic to create to my own kernel eff!! lol jk but seriously I need people with knowhow to provide confirmation of go or no go. Basically I have people whom have helped out but It seems that I'm the only one who has dug this far into this app(unless i've been misinformed) and I have no one on my level to talk with except the init2winit devs. Which are very helpful btw.
And lastly:

Guys if it's failing to make the boot.img first make sure your using the market version....others have released cracked versions of our app which they broke...if your using the actual market version just send me a pm or email [email protected] and send your log.txt from BootManager folder on sdcard and we'll get it straightened out. Thanks.

or post here or PM me, I'm always down to help out.
Also thanks go to the init2win team, Gflam and Conap as they started this app. and as well to Mustangtim as he brought me into the light of BMP.
So you got all that???!!!??? Now lets get this party started and get full support for dual booting. I will not rest until I get this working. Thanks for your time and possible assistance.
Ok so since I have a book above I thought this is a good place for links and such...
So just incase anyone is curious, here is the Official Boot Manager Manual
Here is a nice link for Tips and Tricks while Installing ROM's that so far has good info to help you watch via adb what the BMP is doing in its creation process.
Some FAQs:
When should I set up my phone ROM?
Set up your phone ROM EVERYTIME you install a new ROM to your phone so you can get back to your phone ROM and won't get stuck on your SD ROM.
My SD ROM seems to lag how can I fix this?
SD ROM lagging may be due to a few things which all have easy fixes. First fix is that most of you have class 2 cards which are what usually come with your phones. These have a much lower read/write then cards of a higher class, we recommend a class 6 card or above. Another easy solution is overclocking merely install a better kernel and use CPU Boost (or any other overclock app) to overclock your phone.
Can I nandroid my SD ROM slots?
Yes and no you can't nandroid them in the traditional sense of the word using recovery but this app works as a recovery for your SD ROM slots and you can back up your ROM slots within the app in the Manage Installed ROMs section which works as a nandroid for your slots by fully backing up your slots to your sdcard which can later be restored.
What if I want to change the sizes of my images, how may I determine the individual sizes easily?
Easiest way is to open up terminal emulator in your app drawer. Type 'su', then grant permissions if need be, then type 'df -h' and it will display such information. You may also use adb in the same fashion. Connect via usb, open up command prompt/terminal and get adb connected and then type 'df - h' again and the same info will show. I will say this again just because, do not decrease the size of your system.img ever! Unless you want mad issues!

no we had a miscommunication due to our avail times and GB's lacking ability to utilize two accounts on gtalk.... I have posted those files in the op however...
First, I want to thank everyone who has helped with us on this app. Second, I know I picked the right man for the job, did you see that OP! All kidding aside, a lot of you know I write for ACS under screen name artifintel. I just had too much on my plate to give this project the attention and direction it needs. The right guy is in charge, he's a stand up person and very knowledgeable with this app. Good luck everyone!

and no bootloop you say?? well then it may be the stock rom your using... The app is very picky and if you get a bootloop, I feel that those can get booted with tweaks... but stuck on lg screen is just no bueno.. Try a different rom... maybe one that has its partitions at ext3 format just to try it.. I think owains rom uses ext4, but I could be wrong. I havent fully researched his rom yet..
hands down, a badass app...
