Okay so i have been looking through a couple of LGE devices framework and realised that the frameworks are pretty much the same with the exception of the RIL with that said the LU6200 is supported by miui patchrom I tried porting it before but i think something went wrong with the final Zip Maybe it will have to be repacked into .img formart i think bdadd34 and bernie have the patchrom repo synced i will try porting the usual miui wat from a LU6200. When done a kernel with debugable enabled will be required who's iN ?
If I can help anything I am in.

extract system2.img try via fastboot flash system2 its weird it should atleast bootloop
.
I will patch the Lg Framework Again the Last version was a port it could be the bootloader
rmaybe the img must be signed

Created filesystem with 1437/44832 inodes and 102181/179200 blocks
/system/bin/morningcall could be what is messing up the booting up the Lu6200 patch rom replaces and also CM10 and other rom do not contain it

I Believe its morningcall in bin folder needs to be deleted and secureboot in early init needs to be hashed out also could be the reason it also does not boot on gb loader yes adb is needed to remove that file see if it boots

system.img seems easier to work with i know my uploads also suck but i will upload a build i just made now this one is patched ICS the last was a port from the LU6200
if your on ics can remove morningcall and in early init remove the secure boot from ramdisk the patching went smoothly if it works i might just go back to ICS_StocK_MIUI-Hybrid
there are to .sh files one in bin and the other in xbin there to generate symlinks but the scripts are not active there there incase there needed then we can use adb shell

This is for all ROM cooks, Kernel devs or anyone who wants to make quick changes to the Kernel or ramdisk without wasting much time!
I made or rather put together some scripts for-
All this happens in just one click
Unpack boot.img
Repack boot.img
Make CWM flashable signed zip
Its very easy to use. Download the tools (At the end of the post)
Extract them..
In the root of the extracted files place the boot.img you wanna mod.
Then,
To unpack the Kernel-
Code:
./extract.sh
Your zImage will be in kernel/zImage
Your ramdisk will be in ramdisk folder (unpacked)
Make the necessary changes.. whatever you wish.
Then to pack up everything and get output as boot.img , run.
Code:
./pack_boot.sh
Your repacked boot.img will be in out/boot.img
OR.
If you want a CWM Flashable zip,
Code:
./pack_cwm.sh
The flashable zip will be out/GT-I9103_KERNEL.zip
Easy eh? :laugh:
DOWNLOAD
On a side note,
What in contains:
My scripts
mkbootimg, unpackbootimg and mkbootfs binaries (Compiled from latest CM Source)
signapk.jar and necessary files (To Sign Zip file)
Thanx a bunch for this. I have boot image of a stock gb kernel and want to just add voodoo sound and increase the max brightness level a bit. Is that possible using this tool?

For N7000 you can use these tools since its a zImage Kernel and not kernel+ramdisk like GalaxyR.

This will add the ability to use a custom bootanimation on any rom with any kernel and probably any samsung device.
It has been tested on the Note II but should work with any samsung device that uses samsungani to load boot animations. If it doesn't work for you please post here.
Uses the typical settings bootanimation is at /system/media/bootanimation.zip, this is for those using a stock rom or a rom the dev didn't add it in.
I included the Google Gears bootanimation too. Flash the file in recovery. The attachment is a flashable zip not bootanimation.zip.
The updater-script uses busybox to mount the partitions, so if it doesn't flash correctly install busybox from an app on the play store then try again.
Edited the attachment, now includes the bootanimation binary just in case in bootanimation4u.zip, there is also another one named Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only that only edits samsungani.
If /system/bin/bootanimation exists flash the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip
How to use:
Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery
If you want sound add an ogg file named PowerOn.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui, if sound doesn't work be sure /system/bin/samsungpowersoundplay exists if its there it will play sound if not its not included in your rom download it HERE then put it where it belongs and fix the perms which should be rwxr-xr-x
Reboot...Enjoy
Here is a method to get some bootanimations thanks to ReelFiles:
ReelFiles said:
Awesome!
1. Make a backup just in case.
2. Flash bootanimation4u.zip from recovery (I use TWRP).
3. Reboot and install Boot Animations Root from the Play Store.
4. Go into the app's preferences and change install location to /system/media/ and leave the default filename (bootanimation.zip) and go back to the main screen.
5. Select any bootanimation from the Server tab and hit Install. (Tablet ones at the bottom of the list look best.)
6. Select the installed bootanimation again and hit Resize. Set it to 720x1280 30FPS.
7. Tap the options key and select "Preview current" Make sure you like it and reboot.
I use the Tablet - Shatter one, it looks like the one from the Jedi Roms, but higher quality.
If you Preview a few different ones and then decide to use one you downloaded earlier, delete it first then install and resize it again, or the preview will just be a black screen and might not work at all.
I believe you can preview before installing the animation if you buy the Pro version.

No it only uses busybox to mount system to copy files. It makes it flashable on most devices without using specific blocks. Ie. Mmcblk0p13

Ok, so this will prevent the boot loop caused by adding bootanimation.zip's manually on samsung devices? (vzw gs3 running aosp).
Does the flash of your mod stick between rom flashes, or flash each time?
I don't thing it belongs to development, since the mod is already known and that's why i already posted something like this on General with both methods (manual and CWM)

2. Just open the edited img in hexeditor select everything copy it then select in the bin from offset to size off given by the extract tool and then paste it in there
3. Same as above open rec.img in hex editor select and delete the recovery file in the bin(everything is given by the extract tool) and paste in the new rec

Look a bit in the forum you have to rename it or extract it to bin and baseband and flash it

Berni, there's a few developer-related questions I wanna ask before I develop my first Android firmware ROM.
1. Is even a Java file context-sensitive? And if it is, should a simple change be checked against the other source that links to it?
2. Is it difficult to add in some framework / library outside the Android source codes?

To 1 no but most libraries are built of pretty much code (libwebcore is some gigs big) and are difficult to port to other android version(opposite is libwebcore which is pretty easy). Many libs should work on same android versions but many don't

Ah, I see. I will have to check against each other before I start compiling. Thanks, Berni.

Maybe allow users to customize a few lines of the updater.script such as "SuperduperMod by xdamember" and the last line "All done, thanks, etc".
I'd love to be able to edit my build.prop files through a nice GUI

Hmm,great idea !!! I can make my batch script open the updater script in notepad++ and the user should edit it because if by editing inside the batch script may lead to fatal errors and status 7 may pop up(Due to EOL coversion)

Thank you for hearing me out and considering it, I would use this all the time

Well done mate..
But don't forget to credit the creator(s) of signapk.jar, 7za.exe command line, and the one who wrote signer.bat file that you used here.
You can add support for the /preload partition too.

Yup ,i clearly don't know if the preload partition is in the same blocks as others.
If you give me some info about devices in PM it would be great !

I don't really know very much.I know only that in Samsung Galaxy S Advance,the preload partition is dev/block/mmcblk0p9
Is this only for arm device as the razri has intel instead of arm would be.good to be able. To use this saves a lot of.time having to.edit scripts etc. Which I have to do at the moment to get any mods to flash. From other forum's on my device thanks

Great job mate,,
Just a suggestion is to add standalone busybox binary to be on the root of the flashable zip file.
Why?
In your updater-script, you did well by using busybox command to mount system partition (no need to have the name of partition by doing so), but what if user didn't have busybox installed in his/her device?!!
So after adding busybox binary in the root of the flashable zip, just edit updater-script to be like this:
Code:
package_extract_file("busybox", "/tmp/busybox");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/busybox");
run_program("/tmp/busybox");
Then the mounting point will be like this:
Code:
run_program("/tmp/busybox", "mount", "/system");
And after having all your codes, put these commands at the bottom:
Code:
run_program("/tmp/busybox", "umount", "/system");
delete("/tmp/busybox");
By doing this, you will be sure that your updater-script will work on any device, even if busybox was not installed on them.
I will attach busybox binary bellow for you if you like my suggestion.

preload is the hidden partition (at least for Samsung device I knew!!) and it is about 500 mb space (check cat /proc/partitions command in terminal),, you can actually access the preload partition by any root explorer.
During interdicting of new android platforms, the old devices has no enough storage space in system partition anymore, making the manufactures to use the hidden partition (preload) and do symlinks to system partition.
To use preload partition, you need to add extra folder in the root of your flashable zip file called preload. Inside preload folder you need to make several folders as shown (preload\symlink\system\app) inside this app folder, put your apk files.
Also you will need a script to symlink all apk in preload to system partition. There is one written by @dsixda (create_preload_symlinks) I will attach it bellow in the attachment.
Now returning back to the updater-script, you need to add the mounting command (I will assume you implemented the busybox suggestion):
Code:
run_program("/tmp/busybox", "mount", "/preload");
Add extracting command:
Code:
package_extract_dir("preload", "/preload");
Add command to run create_preload_symlinks:
Code:
package_extract_file("create_preload_symlinks", "/tmp/create_preload_symlinks");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/create_preload_symlinks");
run_program("/tmp/create_preload_symlinks");
Add setting perm for preload partition app folder and apk files:
Code:
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/preload/symlink/system/app");
Add these lines at the end:
Code:
run_program("/tmp/busybox", "umount", "/preload");
delete("/tmp/create_preload_symlinks");
And anything you want to ask,, I will be more than welcoming,,
Cheers

It seems that OP abandoned the project.
He announced in the title of the thread, the version 1.3 will be soon.
It's been three years and still does not.

I actually did not abandon this project ... it was being coded into a GUI software and it was around 80% over. I did not release it because of the lack of time.
I will release the software and code by the end of this week. Although bug fixes will take time if there will be any.
