[DEV]ST26i development thred

So guys i would like to develop cmw for our J.
In adb shell i'v made
Code:
cat /proc/partitions
and it returns something like this:
Code:
major minor #blocks name
7 0 5229 loop0
7 1 7308 loop1
7 2 27059 loop2
7 3 2111 loop3
179 0 3817472 mmcblk0
179 1 1024 mmcblk0p1
179 2 2048 mmcblk0p2
179 3 20480 mmcblk0p3
179 4 1 mmcblk0p4
179 5 30720 mmcblk0p5
179 6 8192 mmcblk0p6
179 7 5120 mmcblk0p7

254 0 5229 dm-0
254 1 7308 dm-1
254 2 27058 dm-2
254 3 2110 dm-3
Anyone have an idea which of those are for example boot partition etc?

Hey guys I've made some progress I've found boot and recovery partitions. Right now I'm developing CMW so stay tuned

I'd like to bring this to the attention of all developers. It's CWM, which stands for ClockworkMod. Therefore, writing CMW instead of CWM may convey the wrong idea. Cheers.

any one know which block name the /data partition is? (/dev/block/mmcblk0pxx)

[Q] Which /dev/block is /system? P5100

All,
When I explore the device for the system image to pull using DD, I am not sure which one contains the fs to be mounted as /system. Basically trying to extract system.img from the stock Rom..
cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
179 0 30535680 mmcblk0
179 1 20480 mmcblk0p1

179 16 2048 mmcblk0boot1
179 8 2048 mmcblk0boot0

Code:
# ls -l /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name

[Q] I need help understanding partitions

This is my first post on xda, and I'm pretty much a noob. So I hope I'm posting this in the correct section, if not please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm trying my hand at some developing and have a couple questions I'm hoping someone can help me with.
The goal is Cyanogenmod 10.2 on my LG Lucid VS840. Currently I'm using an unofficial CM10 ROM Android version 4.1.2 (Not my work)
Partition Information? I'm unsure how to convert the information from the /proc/partitions file into something I can use for my BoardConfig.mk file as follows
# fix this up by examining /proc/mtd on a running device
BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x105c0000
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x105c0000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x105c0000
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x105c0000
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
My device does not have a /proc/mtd file. I do have the /proc/partitions file as follows

[Q] How to dump files from a bootloader-locked Moto G ?

OK, so I found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450045 and thought I would make the attempt. Even though the prerequisites say " Rooted Device " I went thru the steps. This is what I ended up with :

For background info, this device is a Cricket XT1045. Not unlockable thru Motorola site.
I see on another site that someone managed to dump a ROM from this device : CRICKET_XT1045_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.45_cid16_CFC.xml.zip - FileFactory.
What partition from those listed above do I pull from the device ?
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

CRICKET_XT1045_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.45_cid16_CFC.xml.zip was not dumped by someone - it's a Motorola Factory Firmware Image.
The following command will dump the entire system partition.
adb pull /system​
If you want Kernel or Recovery you need root, but those are included in the above factory firmware image.

Thanks for the help, but that command < adb pull/system > only gave me a list of other adb commands.
Now, if I follow you, with the ROM mentioned being directly from Motorola, does that mean that an individual cannot dump his/her personal ROM ?
My goal in all of this is to compare a stock ROM with the bootloader locked against that same ROM having an unlocked bootloader.
And I want to dump my specific ROM to search thru it in an attempt to find my unique " unlock data " string.
I got my feet wet in hex editing during my FTA days. This is quite a bit more detailed, but with Motorola unable to unlock Cricket-branded devices, I have to try.

There should be a space between pull and /system.

Thanks, but holy moly ! that is alot of output.
I saw a few files that look promising > /firmware, /permissions, /DeviceAuthApp. I saw peregrine mentioned a couple times.
Which of these folders contains the actual 4.4.4 operating system ?

You just dumped the 'System' partition - you are looking at the operating system. There are other partitions that relate to the functioning of Android, and your 'holy grail' could well be located there. More info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540799

If you have an eMMC internal storage you can see names and partitions at same time:
Code:
ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/

Thanks for your reply.
After

ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/
It returns
Code:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/: Permission denied
How to resolve it?
Thanks.

Android must be root to successfully run the cmd.

I just rooted the device.
But after
Code:
adb root
It returns
Code:
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
How to solve it?
Thanks in advance.

No way.
