Making a PDA tar.md5 file - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Hi everybody. Three days ago, my phone company, movistar, updated our firmware version. I had tested lots of firmwares and roms and I have always had bugs with push notifications, such as gmail, gtalk, whatsapp, and also with gps, bluetooth, etc.
This last firmware is composed of:
PDA: KP6
PHONE: KPN
CSC: KP5 (XEC)
In a spanish forum, we have been working hard to fix push notifications bug, and now, with this fw, combined with UtterChaosTeam Kernel v4, we fixed it and now it works for everybody... Also wifi, gps, bluetooth, and battery life work amazingly. This fw gets 2800 points in AnTuTu Benchmark and is very very smooth (only with tweaks and fuss script)
¿Where is the problem then?
We would like to post that firmware in xda-developers, so that everybody could test it and make roms for it but we don't have the PDA file. We have a backup that a guy from that phone company (movistar) made from his mobile, so the way we installed it was the following:
1) Install clean KPQ
2) Install UtterChaos kernel v4
3) Copy the backup to sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
4) Start in recovery. Select restore that backup
5) Factory reset
6) Restore our own efs folder.
How can I make a PDA file to share that firmware with the xda-community?
I would like you to help me, this is the greatest firmware we have ever had I think...
Thank you very much.

contact me via p.m. i will need some info before i can give u correct directions for that

dude, why don't u upload the same backup file/s in a zip folder. let me try the same way.

Do we have to use the movistar firmware? Have you tried it with kpq and doomlord's UtterChaosTeam Kernel v4 ? Does it not work?

can share zip file?

Sorry for the delay guys. The original backup is from a guy in the spanish forum. He is a noob and he made the backup file without deleting his personal data, such as passwords, accounts, etc, so I did a hard reset from that one. This is the result:
http://www.multiupload.com/1DNCN0P29W
1) Flash clean KPQ
2) Flash UtterChaos kernel v4
3) Introduce that backup into sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
4) Start into recovery> backup/restore> restore> select that file
5) Hard reset.
Then, if you can, tell me if notifications are working or not.
I am still trying to make a PDA file for this... Thank you guys!!

I hope work on all SCL
C'mon guys, post your feedback

Plz. Don't install deodex, because them " push" no work in deep sleep.

KPQ>KRNELV4>backup/restore> restore you file>hard reset
Correct?

Will restoring the backup does it remove your efs folder? original IMEI intact? If not you should warn other users to back it up first and restore it later!

Anyone tried this method

Guys, I am sorry to say that, as my partners in the spanish forum, after two days, notification bug still exist in this firmware. However, this is a very very smooth firmware with an amazing battery life, so when we are able to do a PDA file we will upload it so that everybody can test it.
Sorry for the news and thank you for your time.

The backup does not modify the EFS, but, it's good to back it up by the way for future modifications...
Thanks to the freewill that use to have that godblessed device (lol), there are some partners have stopped notifications to work, some others we still notifications working.
The very good thing is to anybody out of spain goes to check this firmware to let see if works in foreign devices

CSC S5670ITVKQ3
ANDROID 2.3.4
let me guess
you're italian just like me and maybe an S-lunga customer
i've rooted my phone so i don't know if i could help you providing a good rom backup
if it's possible i'll be glad to do it
a shot of my fit version just to be sure

"let me guess

lol yeah exactely
we have same versions.
BTW it is possible restore a backup using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339640 , in restore mode and saving that backup to SD?
install cwm and backup using it.
and are you sure that if I backup via CMW I will be able to restore my stock rom from this backup after I will have tried any other custom rom?
I have already CMW 4 on my system, after a recovery power on, I have selected backup and it putted the backup on sd folder named CMW/backup...I know I can restore it with the restore command, but I am not sure if it will work, or if will BRICK my phone
yes, i myself have used it.
great ty..and I can see on my sd these files :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Is this all fine?
There is a way to know if the backup is not corrupted?
image doesnt work...
it must have completed successfully, or it would have shown an error.
back the backup to a safe location on your pc.
backup was fully done, and I ave already saved on my pc...so now may you tell me a couple of very good custom rom without bugs?
last thing...on my backup stock I have my all originals "PDA S5670XWKQA PHONE S5670XWKQ3 CSC S5670ITVKQ3 ANDROID 2.3.4" and I can restore all with CWM ? right? TY for ur patience
IMO,
RazoDroid, Chocobread are the best.
Creed's ROM is kinda good too.
---------- Post added at 12:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 AM ----------
just head over to the development section and experiment all you want...

After a custom rom, install Titanium Backup, open it, press the left button, select Batch, select All restore and follow instructions.
Previously, when doing a backup, select Backup All apps + data.
To Titanium work system must be rooted.
mmm it seems quite strange...why other people use cmw , wipe cache , dalvik etc? your way seems a lot easy

[HOW TO] Restore Apps saved by "Titanium backup" when we can't run it

Hi!
Probably, most of you have experienced that Titanium Backup can't be used in some ROMs because of (for example) the incompatibility with ext partitions. That is why I make this mini-guide about how to restore apps (maybe on other ROM) previously saved with Titanium Backup :
What we need
Previously saved apps, on a external SD (Obviously )
ES File explorer (It can be downloaded via PlayStore)
NOTE BEFORE STARTING: You can't restore the data of the app, only the app (apk).
Let's start:
1- Enter on /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/ and search the app you wanna restore:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2- Let's asume that we want install "Flash Player" (for example). When we find it, we can see that there are three files with (moreless) the same name:
3- The only file we need is wich one that has the ".apk.gz" extension (normally it appears like the 3rd), ensure by long pressing it and then entering in "properties":
4- Once we have our desired file, we press on it and we will enter on the ".apk.gz" file. Then, press again and we will get the installation screen:
Ta-da! Magic!
Hope that this mini-guide helped you and of course, you liked it.​
Thanks for the info man! I was using CM7 but it had not full superuser and ext support, so i couldn't work properly with it... Now I can install my saved apps.
Regards.
Big help, a massive thank you.
Obviously this would take forever, but thanks!
Thanks for the info but it's not working for me. I tried this using ES file explorer. I located the file alright, but when I tried installing it, it said install failed.
DId I miss something? or is there something wrong with the file?
Again thanks for the info.
neat but one question
Hey man i find your idea cool, but however that does not recover lost data, or am i doing something wrong?
Sorry for the necro, but this thread really helped me so I thought I'd chime in.

My Titanium Backup kept crashing everytime I tried to restore an app. I fixed this by following this guide and then going to the Titanium Backup to restore data. Once you installed the app with this guide the app shows up in Titanium under backed up apps. Then just click the app and ONLY restore data. No crashes and you get your data back!

This is gonna sound real dumb I know but......has anyone tried entering no password? In other words, just hit Enter? Or maybe using the word "password" as the password?

No problem...!
This kind of things happen..I am not that expert but can advise on the basis of what i gained from xda website.
If you can go in recovery and download means not much serious thing.
FIRST TRY TO RESTORE YOUR SYSTEM FROM RECOVERY BY USING YOUR OLD BACKED UP .
if not then follow steps below:
1. I would recommend you to download fresh odin3V1.85
2. Download steady honeycomb version of your region from
3. From recovery clear delvic cache/factory reset/ and all stuff.
4. Enter download mode and do all the flashing once again. Make sure your power to usb post is ok. I have observed old laptops or pcs just disconnect for a second or so and again reconnect. If this happens while flashing then you come to this stage.
Hope it will solve your problem.
If not other experts are still out there on XDA developers website.......
Don;t panic.
Enjoy with XDA developer's website.

Hi niceashwin79,
thank you very much for your short tutorial.
!NICE! Ashwin
But I already sent it to Samsungsupport. ( BTW. Couldnt wipe anyway, it always stucked, also tried to flash serial roms)
It was returned yesterday, with 3.2 Open Austria and AUT (Swizz) CSC.
So I flashed 4.0.4 Open Austria and became XEO CSC.
But the return to ATO (Austria, the right CSC) was with CSC Selecter for SG1 SG2 and Note from the Market quite easy.
The third party Samsung support company exchanged the motherboard.
However my UMTS/3G-module is not working anymore. I didnt test it with the 3.2, but I guess, it didnt work, too.
The Tab does not recognize the SIM, no message, nothing.
Besides that I have a full nandroidbackup of 4.0.4 with AUT CSC BEFORE the brick.
(Loading this backup after changing CSC from AUT to ATO probably bricked my Tab.
I would be very pleased and thankfull if anywone is able to help me,
thanks in advance
EDIT: I have a small update for you.
If you go to the tab "security" you can deactivate/change the SIM's password. Both actions register my device in the network. Every reboot is the same, so the problem is not fixed yet but kind of sloved.
Still looking for a perfect solution,
greetings Lipi

Why is some app data excluded when restoring from backup?

Welcome, dear friends. Hello... May God bless your time with all good, And make your days all love and happiness .. First of all, I thank all those in charge of this wonderful forum .. Dear brothers ... I have a problem that occurs to me while restoring some application data from the backup ,,, It is when restoring the WhatsApp application data, a message appears and says (that bank application data will be excluded because it may cause problems, etc.). The problem is that WhatsApp is not a banking application ... He refuses to take it back even though (it is there) ... Dear brothers, is there any way to solve this problem ..... I am obliged to obtain WhatsApp data before the configuration, which was previously backed up ...
And if there is no way ... Is there a way to browse the backup copy of the hard disk and extract and copy what I want from it .... My phone is Huawei Mate 20 Edition 10 Please help me if any of you can. I will be very grateful to you ....:تشابك الاصابع::تشابك الاصابع:

WhatsApp has its own method/tools specifically meant for backing up and restoring WhatsApp data. Other backup methods do not work because of how WhatsApp encrypts its data.

The problem, my brother, is that I made a backup copy of WhatsApp from within WhatsApp, thinking that it was saved on gmail ,,,, I would not be surprised at the time that it was saved on files and not on gmail ,,, I am trying to restore the backup file from the encrypted data that I previously made from the settings (backup and reset) If he had officially wanted to return the files to me, he would have done, but the device and the huawei backup app, he thinks WhatsApp is one of the banking applications, so he ignores this app's data recovery

You have a Pro not a Duel. You will need this first, extract it and place all the files within it to /ProgramData/RSA/Download/romfiles/L79031(delete whats currently in this folder first, then move all the files you downloaded into this folder). Now run RSA and and flash the correct firmware for your Legion Pro. Upon boot, make sure to run System Update to the latest firmware available (you will have to do this two or three times).

I think I'm in the same situation- And your link doesn't work. What is 'this'? Can't find any info on it!!!
@xXHotBoxXx420 ,
Pretty sure that link was removed. Here is where you'll find the firmware for your device. Just follow the instructions you quoted by @&(*) after gathering your models firmware.

Hey thank you, but I actually found a CN ZUI 13.5 ROM that I've never found before and flashed it, and it worked. I have Android 12 now, but my cellular still isn't working, and I want a ROM with Google apps by default- one more like the stock android. I assume that's the global version. Trying to go about unlocking my bootloader and flashing the Legion Duels ROM on my Legion pro, I've heard there is a way. Just need to find a good tutorial.
@xXHotBoxXx420 ,
Here is a guide that will work on this device, make sure you read it carefully and backup what it states. I suggest you read this other guide first so you can recover from any mistakes.

Helpful, but I'm wondering if I can do it the other way around; CN to Global rather than Global to CN. I'm sure it probably works the same way, backup partitions and all that. I just figured you had to unlock the bootloader to be able to flash other ROMs but I have flashed the ROW & EE ROMs and ended up with crashdump/bootloop. Didn't realize flashing partitions could fix that. I think I'll give it a try. Thanks
