How to work out if kernel supports loop devices - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Ok so I'm trying to get ubuntu running under chroot on my HTC desire s however I keep getting errors which to me sujest that my kernel does not support loop devices. But how can I check to see if it does or doesn't?

You can verify by checking /proc/config.gz and search through it looking for the configure option - CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y
To do that you need to do it this way:
cp /proc/config.gz /sdcard/kernel_config.gz
and
adb pull /sdcard/kernel_config.gz
Unzip the kernel_config.gz and open it up in a notepad or text editor and search it.
If its either # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP is not setor CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP= will not support.
Or go to the terminal and simply enter:
export
Search for:
LOOP_MOUNTPOINT

[DEV][WIP][TOOL] One-click root

I have no idea why there's no tool for that yet, so I decided to make one myself, but I need your feedback to make it good for everyone. So, my current goals are:
1) As simple as possible, all required files should be packaged with the app or downloaded dynamically
2) Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, Linux, Mac)
3) Minimal user interaction, as automated as possible
I see two solutions:
* X11-less console Linux LiveCD image to be booted in VirtualBox or on real hardware.
Pros: completely controlled environment, no drivers required, bash scripting, all libs and binaries bundled.
Cons: large image size, sometimes difficult to use, no GUI so less user friendly
* GUI Qt app
Pros: flexible language (C++), nice GUI, simple to use, allows for small size and on-the-fly downloads
Cons: have to compile and test separately on 3 platforms, different libs/binaries, Linux dependency hell, probably no Mac support because I don't have one.
So, what do you guys say? I'm open for ideas now and won't start coding until Monday.
I only joined the android world a little while ago when the moto olympus/atrix came out but isn't getting root on this as easy as
a)make sure you have a microSd card inserted
b)make sure unknown sources is enabled
c)install the gingerbreak apk, openeng the app and clicking on "root device"?
I'm no developer and haven't a clue what it takes but this would be epic.

Still think a livecd could be the best way... A GUI app can only come if you guys help me with the testing.

I don't even know what these "blob" things are yet.But if you need testers, thats what the rest of us here are for. Count me in.
Hmm... I wonder how a plugin system could work... So, a core library that handles adb, device identification and plugin loading, plugins dynamically linked to the library (needs a stable API though) and a manifest that lists compatible devices and plugins to be used for them... Could be something like that (YAML inspired);
device:
info:
vendor: 'ASUS'
model: 'Eee Pad Transformer'
pciid:
uses:
- gingerbreak
- tf101
And libgingerbreak.so to push and run gingerbreak (a generic one) and then a device specific libtf101.so to take care of blob flashing action.
P.S. It's night here and I'm tired as hell. Sorry if I wrote some nonsense... If anyone is interested in making it big, PM me here or on github.

A livecd would probably be too complicated for people who can`t follow the rooting guide.What you need is a program to download on to computer.....in large red letters...connect Transformer to pc.....click obvious button.....rooted

Yeah, that's just the thing. What's good about a livecd is that you are 100% sure it works everywhere, cause nothing changes. But if you make it native, you need drivers on Windows, udev rules or root privileges on Linux and a Mac to make it run on a Mac...

Yup essentially like one-click rooting app for the Galaxy phones.
It is ***UHHH... get the software and d/l on the computer.....ummm.... click to open
Click the flashing neon sign that SAYS: "click here dummy !!" ...........you are rooted...........
Anything you coud put together would be an absolute god send. I managed to root my X10 okay, and my other half's Vega..... but the guides for the transforemer may as well be in mandarin for all I understand them. I really need a click here, install this, type that, press this, turn round three times and throw salt over your shoulder sort of guide..... or any of your lovely proposed one click solutions
The best I have is a pair of batch files that go through the pre and post root process that I've modded with directions. This assumes you have ADB setup from the Android SDK install and have the ADB drivers installed and working. You need to have USB Debugging enabled via Settings > Applications > Development. If you do not, get the Android SDK and read up on how to setup ADB. There's tons of posts on XDA about how to do just that.
Download tf101-root.zip here
md5: 57f22712625fe75f685499b60b189aa8
Firstly, run root-prep.bat from where ever you extracted tf1010-root.zip (preferably in your platform tools folder for your Android SDK install).
This is the batch file content of the root-prep.bat:
Code:
adb push gingerbreakBB /data/local/
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/gingerbreakBB
adb push CWM_BLOB_V5 /data/local/
@echo off
echo Now do "adb shell" from another command window. In the shell, do "/data/local/gingerbreakBB" without quotes. DO NOT CLOSE THAT COMMAND WINDOW, EXIT THE SHELL, OR REBOOT AFTER GINGERBREAK IS DONE! THE ROOTING PROCESS MAY WIPE YOUR SD CARD SO BACK IT UP BEFOREHAND!
pause
Go to your Android SDK folder in explorer and (if you're on Vista/7) shift+right-click the platform tools folder and click "open command window here" for a new command window already set to that folder. XP users will have to do it manually or download the PowerToy from this page. Download the "Open Command Window Here" tool and it works exactly the same as on Vista/7. GINGERBREAK MAY OR MAY NOT WIPE YOUR SD CARD SO BACK IT UP BEFORE DOING IT JUST IN CASE!
Rooting process:
Code:
C:\aSDK\platform-tools>adb shell
$/data/local/gingerbreakBB
<you'll see all the gingerbreak stuff here>
#
DO NOT CLOSE THIS COMMAND WINDOW AND DO NOT EXIT THE SHELL WHEN IT'S DONE! If you don't get the # symbol in the shell after running gingerbreak, you'll have to run the root-fail-fix.bat then do the above again after the reboot.
This is the batch file content of the root-fail-fix.bat:
Code:
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/boomsh
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/sh
adb reboot
If you get the # symbol after gingerbreak is done, run post-root.bat from the same command window as you did root-prep.bat or a new command window. After the reboot you should be fully rooted!
This is the batch file content of the post-root.bat:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell dd if=/data/local/CWM_BLOB_V5 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
adb push su /system/xbin
adb push busybox /system/xbin
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/busybox
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
adb reboot
You can do the commands manually just to make sure everything works properly (encouraged) or just run the batch files from a command window if you're lazy.

That would be a godsend
I can appreciate how many would look at the rooting guide and say "WTF?" Think about it, unless you are command line savvy, the process can be daunting. Not including the linux users we have a generation (or two) who never had the "pleasure" of running DOS so they have not had the experience of a flashing cursor just waiting for the human to tell it EXACTLY what you want in PRECISE commands.
Ahhh...the good old days. (kidding....really...or so says my pet rock...with the mood ring)
Guess I'll hack together windows batch and linux shell scripts tomorrow and start working on the app later, cause I have no free time now.

I think with the key now out and the ability to modify any Asus TF ROM it might be wise to wait and make something that works with NVFlash? But I don't know a lot about this stuff so ignore me if you think I am an idiot
I vote for a GUI QT App. The point of One Click Root is to make rooting as painless as possible. A live CD doesn't seem to follow that...

[MOD/APP] ScriptFusion (Complete Modification)

This is another of the projects I have done that was restricted to the Thunderbolt forum, but is actually compatible with quite a few devices, if not all. Some features only work for the Thunderbolt, but the script and application verify compatibility themselves.
I do not place any restriction on use of the script, components, or functions. All I ask is that the script is not used in the development of similar applications. Whether or not I am credited is at the discretion of the developer and their personal moral obligations. While this project does not include any GPL code, the theory is still relevant:
The GPL imparts great freedom for GPL end users. It ensures innovation is never stifled and no project is dependent upon any single developer.

This application will install the script, and if purchased from market, or unlocked with the Twisted Sanbox Shovel, it will also provide an online database of tweaks and scripts that can be run, or linked together and run, from directly inside the application.
DOWNLOADS:
AUTOUPDATE - Once the full package is installed, it will update itself (if needed) whenever it is launched. The only time the script alone needs to be reinstalled is when a new ROM is installed.

Just a quick breakdown for anyone asking "What about 98kickasskernel? Or "what about juwe RAM optimization?" "Don't they do the same thing?" In theory, sure... For RAM and sysctl values. Ever wonder why there are two versions of the 98kernel script to prevent bootloops? That is one key difference. This system doesn't just throw values at your device, or follow an "if you bootloop" methodology. Sure some things may cause loops because there is no reliable check (See odex/dalvikvm), but nothing is just hard-coded.
Another big difference is that those scripts cannot change screen density, tweak the CPU, change the scheduler, profile frequencies, and fix broken WiFi all in one run.
Complete means complete, simple as that. Customization means user determined customization, not what one developer recommends. Recommendations will help through the process, but they remain exactly that. There are no rules. Have some fun...

Hi. Thanks for sharing.
I first read, re-read the OP and decided to download and try the trial app from the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twisted.zero&feature=search_result. But the app just crashes every time when i try to launch(it gives the error: Data and sdcard required!). I am on custom ROM Froyo 2.2.2 with apps on ext2 using data2sd(both apps were on phone memory).
Then i re-re-read the OP and decided to try the script way first via Script Manager and then(if not lucky) via terminal. I had no luck with Script Manager(runing root mode). The script dont install and gives the errors:
wget: bad address '64.121.156.138:8080'
wget: can't connect to remote host (64.121.156.138:8080)
Unnable to chmod /system/xbin/wget: No such file
Invalid binaries. Please retry.
Edit: Checking the filesystem i see that at least one thing the script/app have done. Has deleted all my previous scripts on /system/etc/init.d and now there are 3 new files: 00twist_override, 01vdd_levels and 02sched_choice. Same files are now on /etc/init.d.
Same error with terminal emulator. Maybe i am very dumb and i miss something. What i am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Your previous scripts are safe. They will be in data/data/scriptfusion if install didn't complete (in which case you may want to move them so a new install doesn't overwrite them) or in SDcard/ScriptFusion/backup
Alright, so a couple things happened all at once that caused your error, but to keep it simple... My server takes on the traffic of a corporate sized one packed into two computers. Occasionally I have to reboot. Your download happened during the 15 minutes or so it went down. Give it another try and let me know if it doesn't fix itself.

Alright, let me look into something that might avoid having to update busybox
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Alright, with all the recent edits, it should work to get a system with busybox 1.6.1 and up updated and running. A lot of other scripts stay at 1.6.2, but this uses 1.9 much like newer ROMs. I plan to drop back busybox, see if all the commands work, and make that part optional, but a lot of ROMs use truncated versions, so I am still working out a failsafe.

Can I have a few people do the following command and post the output? Getting a baseline for a new verify

Removed the necessity of having certain versions of busybox, but with that it is fair warning that ROMs with truncated versions will not work.
Changed up the tweak menu option to be a little easier understood. While the +/- were fully explained, on smaller text sizes they were impossible to differentiate.

Removed. All good now.
I got it up and running. I have a few questions. I purchased the autobot off one of the links you provided. I got working. I made a slight yet big mistake. I was looking through the speedtweak menu and somehow changed the voltages on something by mistake. I couldn't read what was on the bottom of the terminal emulator and screwed something up good. After that, the phone was really crawling and scriptfusion wouldnt open up. I just restored my old backup and then reinstalled my new rom. I got scriptfusion back on my phone but is there supposed to be an app that takes you directly into scriptfusion? I know I can get there from the terminal emulator but i was able to click on an app before to get in. Now if I click on it, it just force closes. Second question is, if I am going to be playing around with a kernel, is it best to just back it up first before I modify? I'm on gingeritis 3D that has Ziggy's latest baked in. It would be nice if I screwed something up that I could just reflash the kernel but he doesn't have the kernel by itself floating around. It seems like the backup and restore worked. I backed it up, played around a bit and tested my results then I restored and it seemed to take the kernel back to its normal state. Is this the way I should do it? Also, can you backup more than one file at a time?
I also don't know what happened to my min/max frequencies. I now only have :
1) 192000
2) 245760
3) 368640
4) 768000
5) 806400
6) 883200
7) 960000
8) 1036800
This is all I have available. I had more before I had to reflash my rom. I'm sure its my fault. How can I get the other options back? I also have enabled swap and I can see if on there but it is not being used.

From everything you said, it sounds like the restore may have given you a different kernel. The kernel frequencies are read right from system. The force close should fix itself by clearing data for the app and letting it reinstall the script. You don't necessarily need to back up anything if you are near a computer because the kernel itself is never actually edited. Restore is as easy as using adb to remove /system/init.e/00twist_override Editing on the go, a recent backup of system only will revert any changes. If you enabled swap and your getting zeros either you need to reboot or the system hasn't needed the space yet.

Thanks. It was very true. Reading over your work made me realize I was focusing too much on single items and not the whole process.

Well... looks like you did it in spades
Lots of ideas floating around. New concepts for better cooperation between the app and the script. Better methods for quick scripts. New menus and graphic interface plans. It's slowly building up.

[Q] some questions

I hope you can help me with those questions please
I'm getting familiar with the Terminal commands, and had some questions
- Where could I get flash_image binary file?
- When I get into recovery and use adb shell, I can't use any commands such as the ones when booted. It seems that the emulator isn't pointing to the bin directory (it is pointing to the sbin). I tried using cd /system/bin/ doesn't work either. What am I missing?
- What is the use of mount system,data,cache and so on in the recovery? Are those alternatives to "mount" in terminal? I can't understand how to use it either. xD
Thank You
Great xD

perhaps start over using a guide in dev or general forum.
easiest, just flash a base rooted ROM, not a whole lot different from "stock"
You need to learn how to use adb. Google it and find a guide. You can also do all of that from a terminal. Its just basic linux commands. Nothing fancy.

(RESOLVED)Alternative of script manager

Im having problems with the app "script manager" on se x10i running on custom ROM (feralabs v4). Is there an alternative for this app? Im trying to install v6 supercharger. Any help would be highly appreciated.

before running the script manager, you must install busybox first
a simply tutorial video

I used to have problem too in installing v6 supercharger using script manager. I tried different busybox version but still had problems. Finally, I only installed it using terminal emulator. If you want to try it, here's how I did it:
- copy the downloaded v6 script to the root folder of the sdcard and rename it to v6.sh
- open terminal emulator
- type this command:
$ su [enter]
# sh /sdcard/v6.sh [enter]
- that will open v6 interface like usual and you can install it from there.
Only one drawback though, there's no widget that script manager provide to quick check v6 status. If I want to check it, then I have to run the command in the terminal again.
