[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...

if you want to kang the files, just extract the factoryfs.rfs by mouting if you are on linux if not by using ultraiso on windows...

Extract is as in get all the .apk and system files? Or extract as in pull the .rfs file out of the .tar file?
I tried mounting the .rfs file in windows and cygwin. No dice.

Its basically consists of the Kernel...
I guess you can find it inside the TAR of any stock ROM.....
I sadly don't have a unlimited internet plan to download the whole firmware, so if someone could please provide it?

Tell me how to extract and i will try to extract it for u

I don't know a lot of stuff about Kernels since this is a first time I am making one and I decided to choose Samsung Galaxy Fit for it.
Currently I am extracting initramfs from the zImage....

k thanks and keep trying

Its inside the boot.img of Galaxy Fit ROM....

Kernel of G5 and GFit r different.... In G5 initramfs is in zimage and directly zImage is flashed.... But as in GFit v flash boot.img. So if u need zImage u need to extract boot.img and this initramfs is not included in zImage. After extracting boot.img u wil get initramfs and zImage....

S-Voice For Galaxy Note (with all lib files and tts files) Working

Will Get back on this later..busy with something else right now..

Your package hasn't been setup correct.
You need to repack it without the svoice folder in the root directory.

everything was working in mine...there was just one mistake that i created a zip of the folder not the files...
people with experience managed it...others didnt..

could make .zip to uninstall in case there is a problem? thanks you very much.
Enviado desde mi GT-N7000 usando Tapatalk

Its working now .. thank you

Am I right in saying that if I just repackage the zip file without the s voice folder part it should work?
Or is it easier to just copy the files across to the relevant system folder? Which files or just all of them?
The other s voices in have tried don't work fully, hoping this one is different!

how to make a flashable .zip to instal thru cwm

is it hard to make a app install and overwrite the existing one using a flashable zip..???

Not really. The easiest way is to take an existing flashable zip and modify it to do what you want. That's what I do, anyway.
