Hi
An Insecure kernel is not a requirement for gaining root, at least not on any device I've used.
Although You're probably best SEARCHING the Device Specific Forums all the Information will be in there.
Good Luck.

Hi fellas,
the intent is quite obvious, collect the latest boot.img that are usable for Froyo.
So here it is, the Froyo kernel collection with all the bugs...
Unless there is no unlocked bootloader we have to deal with the delivery of Moto.
The files could be found easily in the web, but you'll have to search.
I know that searching is very hard for some, so i decided to put it down here and collect some other useful informations in this little thread.
Kernel images (boot.img) sorted by kernel build date:

Basically the arabian and the african kernel are the same.
All files are installable through OpenRecovery and might be renamed to update.zip.
You could easily extract the boot.img and use Nandroid alternatively!
For the curious, here's the official kernel source:
https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/...rs.milestone_source_froyo.05_26/frs12183?dl=1
Disclaimer:
I did not re-pack these files myself, i just collected them.
If you harm your device using these packages, i'm not responsible.
If anyone is the best friend of w21529, wfp018 or r2d2 please ask for help.
If you are a motorola employee send the private keys to wikileaks.
If i made a mistake, tell me!
Thanks goes out to all the openminded developers out there.
@moderators:
If the attachments are getting to large tell me.

Example structure of MS1 boot.img:
Code:
0x0000 0000 - 0x0000 07ff Android header, the first 8 bytes are the magic = "ANDROID!", followed by:
unsigned kernel_size,
unsigned kernel_addr,
unsigned ramdisk_size,
unsigned ramdisk_addr,
0x0000 0240 - 0x0000 02e0 id (checksum 160Bits)
0x0000 0800 - 0x0027 07ff zImage
0x0027 0800 - 0x002a 77ff ramdisk.gz
0x002a 7800 - 0x002b f7ff n x 0xff + 0x0000 0100 at the end
0x002b f800 - 0x002c 07ff key structure
The key structure at the end of boot.img is explained more in detail here:

Maybe you can indicate the +'s and -'s of each one?
I think one has 4 point multitouch but usb bug included with it
One or two may have DSI bug, but not as bad as others

I agree, I'm still using the GOT leak kernel simply because I keep reading of various bugs on various kernels and haven't decided to change to any other yet. Although, I normally just pick the newest kernel and assume it had the most fixes - this is MOTO we're talking about (2.0 -> 2.1u1 kernel bugs anyone?)

Hey,
thanks for the comments so far...
SHLA_U2_05.14.0_kernel-2.6.32.9-20110224_update.zip is not the best source i guess. It contains a boot.img which is slightly too big in size.
Though this might not cause any issues, please be warned.
I got no SDK at hand... so i'm looking for an alternative to build a new update.zip.
Further comments are welcome!

scholbert

I'm not sure if SignApk relies on the SDK - as it's not acutally part of the SDK, I think it just relies on JAVA, you could give that a shot - that's what I use (but I have the SDK installed so I don't know about dependencies)

That's right, sorry for confusion and thanks for clearing up.
It just works with Java on your machine. The tool is called signapk.jar.
I found the package on my workstation... uploaded new Brazilian kernel (debug version)
Maybe i'll delete the standard version...

Hi!
I'm looking for the TUN module to be able to launch openvpn for the kernel version : 2.6.35.13-g3422292
Can anybody compile it and post, please ?
Thanks in advance.
I have tried to use module from m-deejay's latest kernel:
insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)
Task closed, I build it myself.

I would appreciate it too.
Edit: Wrong phone :l
Here you are:
md5 a6c86c428c3eed39ca65296bb5588d7c tun.ko
strings tun.ko|grep vermagic
vermagic=2.6.35.13-g3422292 SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7
Hi everyone!
I was so happy to see this thread and the attached file. However I somehow keep getting an error message when trying to install:
insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
insmod : init_module '/system/lib/modules/tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)
Does anyone of you have an idea what can cause this error? Sorry, I'm still a complete noob, but I thought having the same device with the same kernel version (HTC Sensation, Kernel 2.6.35.13 g3422292) it should work...?
Thank you very much!
Edit:
I juts tried
dmesg | grep tun
tun: duplicate symbol tun_get_socket (owned by kernel)
Any ideas on that?
Thanks!
Edit2:
I guess it means that tun.ko is already available. After rebooting the device the information from dmesg |grep tun was clearly showing the already available version tun information.
Thanks anyway!
hello tvj2009.
Are you sure you compiled TUN.KO can be working for 2.6.35.13-g3422292 ?
I download your tun.ko, and insmod it,but i got a error :init_module '/system/lib/modules/tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)
And my kernel：Linux version 2.6.35.13-g3422292 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.0 (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 1 15:03:50 CST 2011,same and you?
I was wondering where‘s the wrong，can you help me?
may be you can post you how to compile it in the process? or tell me how to do it?
Thank you very much!

I have an HTC sensation with the following Kernel info:
2.6.13-g3422292
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 1 15:03:50 CST 2011
I think it's the same as yours. I would also need this to get OpenVPN working. Would greatly appreciate any help.
I installed the mKernel kernel and was able to use the Cisco Anyconnect VPN client (which requires TUN). It works perfectly. I've been running it for about 4 days now.
Dave
Will this tun.ko also work with the stock ROM? Thanks.

First, wrong section.
Second, I think using the RUU would get you back the stock kernel, s-0n and stuff.
Third, don't you need 10 posts to post in the development section?

You might won't to try the q&a section they will give you a infraction for that if you continue to post q&a in the dev section and you won't be able to log in anymore
That is correct!!!

Has there been any progress on getting the version released by Samsung to run?
I see the released config file is dated Fri Dec 3 13:25:44 2010 while the actual kernel is dated Thu Nov 3 16:13:03 KST 2011.
Who has been contacted at Samsung about releasing the correct source?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
It doesn't compile well. when you try to boot it it hands at the Samsung screen.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium
Yeah, I tried compiling a kernel (with the stock initramfs) and ran into the same problem.
Has someone contacted Samsung? Have they replied?
I've emailed them, but haven't heard anything back yet.
Is there any way to at least compile new kernel versions?
I can't get the version magic string to match. Right now I'm at "2.6.35.7-EP4+ preempt mod_unload ARMv7"; the "+" isn't there in the stock kernel.
I have just bought a generic tablet ACME TB04 and I would like to root it. I don't know a lot about rooting so I would appreciate if any of you could tell me about rooting. I have Android 4.1.1 installed,
