[I9003] First attempt to get CWM running / boot image tools included

Hi Guys.
User "rb210" asked me to help porting CWM to I9003.
I've built it from sources and created a correct recovery.fstab with the partition layout of your device.
Since i'm not owning a I9003, i cannot do more for you. Sorry. :-(
Here are my tools to create a normalboot.img and a recovery.img based on stock kernel:
http://www.multiupload.com/5W80N6HOW2
Don't know if it's the right way, because it's very different compared to I9000.
CWM recovery binary is included at root/sbin and recovery/sbin folders.
Read teh README!
Good Luck

Thank you mate for helping us. It would be great, if it works on I9003. We appreciate your work for I9003. Hope now I9003 will have CWR running soon.

How do you proceed from here ?

I was going to post the exact same question, I'm a noob and I don't even know what I'm doing:

Yes, download mode will still be available. I bricked my phone 3-4 times last night while testing the PDA tarballs codeworkx built. In the end he gave me this PDA to restore my phone to normal.

I built it and test it.... doesn't work... the phone hangs on first logo and adb cant see the phone

Lets donate codeworkx for this, and help him buy this phone so that he can help us with recovery. We will need his help again when Gingerbread is released.

Restore the default image with the file I uploaded. Like I said, I tried some builds but I had to revert back to normal. This isn't working yet but it is a start.

I build from source a recovery.img that works... or so i think... now i'm gonna try with normalboot.img.. finger crossed

Can you provide brief explanation, how to compile this? Even I would like to try.

Please wait.... i compiled also normalboot.img in the same way but it doesn't work... maybe my recovery.img doesn't work.... so there's no need to explain you how to make mistake

Sorry repost.

I've done many tests, finally i can say that we must review the mkbootimg method.... if i unpack the stock kernel files and then i repack it doesnt work...

[KERNEL][ODIN] Netchip´s kernel |Based on skin1980 | BFQ | CWM

Hi people,
I have compiled my own kernel, the initramfs is from skin because I spend all my time on CM7.
I have not tested it, because I dont have the device.
Read the disclaimer:
Netchip is not responsible for damage caused by the kernel and / or device.
If you encounter problems using this kernel, in what a way, I am not responsible.
You flashed the kernel, it is your responsibility.
This kernel is not tested!
This kernel is very very unstable, and not tested
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Before you flash this, make a nandroid backup, this script wipes all your data, set back your nandroid backup immediatley after install of this kernel, no reboot!
Features:
- BFQ
- CWM
- AUX Video driver
- EXT4
Install:
Install it directly via Odin
Enjoy

I will try this tomorrow and let you know!
Right now I don't have my computer!
Thanks!

One question, this kernel can be flashed on any firmware or there is a specific firmware for this kernel?

M going to test it now will soon post the result

I go repair it tomorrow, I have now no time.

really wanted to test it, but after already arriving with the first error, better not ^ ^
I wait for now.
But I think good, that someone still wants to write a kernel.
When he finishes, he is definitely good. with all the features.
have good things take time

hey netchip...acc to ur updater script,there should be a tmp folder in .zip...but there is no such folder...probably that is causing the error!

You are wrong... the problem is not there. Maybe the issue is cause by
Code:
write_raw_image
i'm not sure it can works on our phone.... maybe netchip can try with bmlwrite binary...
Another thing.... to test this kernel:
-extract the normalboot.img and flash it with heimdall;
or
- extract normalboot.img ---> pack it into a .tar --->flash with Odin

Omg, I go make Odin/Heimdall package. I make it also abiable.for rom managrr

You could wait for rom manager as well. I think it has the option for installing CWM on stock!

You're right.
It's actually one of the first things I'm going to implement.
It does mean going back to stock, but I don't mind

Please vote which things you would love in this Custom Kernel. I´m trying to make it happen
This is the first version, without anything, just compiled Kernel out of Source. Please regard that i can not test the kernel so it´s maybe not working - but i´m trying to fix problem as good as i can.

It´s a small protection that only developers or people that know what to do if their phone bricked download and install it
As soon as i know that everything is correct working i´ll upload a CWM-flashable version and a Odin-flashable one.

@ fuss132
bro I really appreciate ur work. But I think u should first concentrate on making a working kernel. As u dont have device it would be too difficult to make at least a working kernal. If everything fine then u can at least think about some simple things like oc or uv.
I dont know how will u add voodoo sound kenel support when device hardware itself dont support for it.

Thats why I added a "if its possible" it seems to be that it´s not, but there are many other things compareable to it. And the (hopefully) working kernel is attached to the first post

USB OTG +1
