[Q] Android Imaging Questions - General Questions and Answers

Hello xda, I've been browsing these forums for a while and all the information has been extremely helpful, however, I think I've reached a point where I actually needed to post some questions that haven't been answered. Being a student studying digital forensics, I have been focusing on mobile devices, specifically Android devices. I have encountered an issue with imaging Android phones and being able to look at the contents within, so as such, my questions are:
- Is it possible to create a bit-stream image of an Android Phone, such as a .dd file (either through a custom recovery or perhaps an app within the Android os?) Since Android is Linux based, it might be possible to port the dd command onto the device?
- Is it feasible to flash a custom recovery kernel onto an Android phone without rooting the device (using fastboot, perhaps)? The reason why just rooting the device to perform a Nandroid backup is not possible is because rooting the phone would require unlocking the bootloader, which would wipe the data that I want to retrieve off of the device.
- Would performing a Nandroid backup retrieve all user-edited data from the device? From my understanding, a Nandroid backup will backup the /data folder, which would contain all the user information such as SMS, Contacts, Call logs. Are there any folders that might contain this type of information that would not be retrieved from a Nandroid backup?
- There are a lot of resources on this forum for custom ROM development, but are there any resources for custom recovery development?
- Anything I develop has to be able to work on as many devices as possible, so would I have to write something new for every device, or would I just have to write something for a few manufacturers?
I'm trying to learn as much as I can about Android so I can begin developing myself , so any links to documentation and/or help to these questions would be greatly appreciated!

bump, I really need some help

No one has any information or could point me in the right direction?

Unlocking the bootloader is not necessary for rooting. Bootloader is something which fires your kernel which works together with the installed ROM system. Now if you want to root your device, that can be done, and always is, without touching the bootloader. If you want to install a recovery one the device you will either need an installer which requires a rooted device or simply flash a custom kernel with recovery integrated, but that requires an unlocked bootloader in most cases. Keep in mind though that none of this should affect data on the phone in any way.
Unlocking the bootloader shouldn't wipe any data.
Flashing custom kernels with recovery shouldn't wipe any data.
Rooting the device shouldn't wipe any data.
Flashing another ROM on the device will delete all system and user data in the /system and /data partitions which can both be backed up via recovery to a SD card.

Unlocking the bootloader doesn't wipe the phone? I was under the impression that it did, judging from all of the guides about unlocking the bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972508
Do they just say that as a precaution? Or does it in fact wipe the phone?

In that particular case it does but differs between devices. Unlocking my bootloader did not wipe anything.
However, you can always backup everything using adb from the Android SDK.

I see, so am I correct in assuming the it is impossible to flash a custom recovery kernel, without first unlocking the bootloader? Or does that also vary between devices? The reason why ADB backup might not be the complete solution is because there might be some devices that don't use Android 4.x so I believe ADB backup wouldn't work right?

Well, not entirely true since you can install some recoveries by .apk hence it could be possible to use it ROM related as in manually placing files into the ROM root filesystem but that's a too big hassle.

Are you referring to using something like ROM Manager? Wouldn't something like that require root in the first place? Are root and unlocking the bootloader mutually exclusive, in that you can't root without first unlocking the bootloader? I understand that there may be some devices where you can root without unlocking the bootloader, but I was under the impression that for the majority of Android devices, you needed to first unlock the bootloader, which could potentially wipe the data off the phone?

[Q] Can anyone be so kindly to help me with my new Nexus S??

wanting to know best way to root and if the superoneclick root that i used on captivates will work with my Nexus S stock gingerbread 2.3.2
Just pick any of the root guide threads in the development section. Essentially they all do the same thing and end up with the same result. The manual (hardest) method takes no longer than 10 minutes even for a beginner.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The last time I noticed someone mention superoneclick around here, they said it didn't work.
Which method you use depends on how long you've had the phone, how much data in applications you have that you don't want to lose (because without root yet, you can't back them up), and whether you want an unlocked bootloader or not.
There's several guides in the development section. The one I posted is abbreviated and relies mostly on the steps from other guides, but it is focused on NOT wiping your phone as the original methods had you do with the fastboot oem unlock command. It doesn't seem to be necessary to do that step.
You can follow just about any of the guides and just skip that oem unlock step if you're worried about not wiping all data (ALL data, including your sdcard pics, music, etc).
Even if you want the bootloader unlocked for some reason, I'd suggest following the non-wipe method to root, then running a backup of your apps' data with Titanium (also copy your sdcard contents to your computer), then you can do the wipe method and restore your backup...now you have a oem unlocked phone and no loss of data.
^^ I agree with the guy above. His thread is easy. First time root and no wipe!
I liked this one the best, includes pictures and all.

[Q] [NOT ASKING FOR HOWTO] A query about CM and rooting.

Hello XDA.
For a while now I've been thinking about rooting and adding a custom ROM to my phone. It seems like fun and I'd like to get involved.
Recently (as in I have no idea) Cyanogenmod released a new update that doesn't require the user to root their phone in order to install CM. However rooting allows full administrative access which is something that I'd like to have. Does CM root in the process of installation or does CM by itself have enough capability and features so you don't require rooting at all? If not, do people still root their phones before installing CM?
For starters I'm running Android version 4.1.2, if that will help in anyway possible.

Could you post a link to the source saying you don't need root to install cm? You can't actually post a link because you're brand new, but post the url anyway.
CM in itself does not root the device. The process of rooting is simply granting administrative permission as you already mentioned. It has root managing applications (such as supersu) installed, and a lot of its built in features require root access. I can't think of any instance where you could install the rom without root permission because it needs to change specific files to run, such as the kernel and system partition. This by default can't be changed without rooting the device.
Rooting is very easy and has to be done first, then you have to unlock the bootloader, then you can install custom roms. As long as you aren't on the 4.3 update.

It's on the wiki under "/w/CyanogenMod_Installer"
Code:
Do I need to root my phone before installing?
No. You can have a rooted phone, or not. The installer doesn't care. However, to be in a supported configuration, you need to be running a stock ROM.

OK, so no, this will not work on our device. Specifically because we have a locked bootloader.
A lot of the coding in the cyanogenmod wiki is extremely confusing. Even doing something as simple as installing the rom written on that website looks very unnecessary to me. There are much easier ways to do it that don't involve such complicated processes, with such potential to brick a device.
I feel like a lot of the developers know how to use heimdall which can write to any device. Our device can use Odin though which is much more user friendly. When they write guides, they write for many devices, and they're unaware of simpler methods on each phone.
In a nutshell, I'd follow guides here on xda on how to root and install custom roms. Just make sure to follow the correct guides for your baseband and you should be good to go. Once you root and unlock the bootloader, you can install any custom rom you want simply by flashing in recovery.

Help needed

Hi,
I have a problem that I'm hoping you guys can help me with:
I bought my Nexus 5 from the US Play Store but I live in Europe, which is why my LTE isn't working.
Now I have a friend who has the opposite situation, living in the States but having a European N5.
Now our idea was to simply switch phones, but we don't know how to do with while keeping all the data.
Is there any way to backup EVERYTHING into a file which each of us could flash so it would be like the both of us had the same phone as before, only with working LTE?
Thanks in advance.
Please use descriptive thread titles in future
Yes, if you can root both phones without unlocking the bootloader (unlocking wipes phones), flash a custom recovery then do a nandroid backup (EXCLUDING EFS) then copy /sdcard to your pc.
OR use carbon (Although I cannot guarantee its everything).
Although it is much easier and safer to start fresh.
All guides etc are in the link in my signature, except - if you want root without unlocking bootloader, you'll have to try your luck with the towelroot app.
Anyway read up and you may figure it out but if you're a stranger to rooting, I wouldn't recommend it.

Yeah sorry for the title, couldn't think of any description.
In fact both our phones are rooted and have a custom recovery, I wasn't sure about the nandroid backup process though.

Nandroid from recovery will backup everything except sdcard. So do a nandroid backup to sdcard and copy To PC
Just ensure you DO NOT backup or restore efs.

FAQ for Z3 all models

Hello everybody, as not only in this subthread I see many questions being repeated I thought it could be nice to have an explanation for most of them. Please feel free to add answers! Questions are sorted into:
General
Root
Recovery
Xposed
Bootloader
Rom
General
Q: Which specs does my phone have?
A: Have a look at gsmarena.com, they provide splendid information to all devices.
Q: Where is the difference between (e.g.) D6603 and D6633?
A: The Xperia Z3 series is mainly divided into: Internationally available (e.g. D6603), Dual Sim (D6633, D6683), and branded (D6616). While the first group covery most internationally used frequency bands, the branded ones offer LTE support for T-Mobile and Verizon in the US. The disadvantage is that it is harder to develop for the latter.
Q: How do I seek support for a questions regarding xy?
A: If you have flashed something specific, ask in the thread you got the link from or where it originates. If you have more general questions, ask here or here. Note that many questions have already been asked, so please use the search function before asking a new question.
Q: I read up a little on various flashing related stuff and saw flashtool was mentioned. What is it? How do I get it to work?
A: Flashtool is a tool created by @Androxyde and it allows us to flash every file that we have in the .ftf format to our phones. While most of its steps are explained here, it is to note that if you use Windows 8 or higher, you may have to take an additional step to install the correct drivers for your phone. Look here for help on that.
Root
Q: What is root?
A: Root enables you to have more in depth access to your system. If you don't know what it is and want to aquire it, first inform yourself, for example here and find out what advantages it could give you as well as disadvantages and consider if it suits you. Never forget: Your warranty will be voided! While you can get it back, it might be quite some trouble if you're not somewhat experienced. On the other hand, people are always eager to help. If you don't try, you won't find out .
Q: How can I root my device?
A: There are two possible methods it root your device, one being way more risky than the other.
Method 1: Downgrade to 4.4.4 (if you are not already there), then use giefroot, get a recovery and flash a pre-rooted updated ROM. Sounds complicated? Thanks to @G-FACE it is not! Look here to see how to root and install recovery on your handset!
Method 2: Downgrade to 5.0.2 and use Kingroot. This method is not recommended at all as it sends your IMEI, so your unique identification number to a Chinese IP address without knowledge who the receiver is. While it is possible, I would definitely recommend the first method.
Q: Help! I messed up on the way there!
A: Ask in the appropriate thread (depending on in which step you messed up), there are always people helping out! Generally speaking, flashtool will be one of your biggest companions. If you have questions regarding that, look at the prior section.
Recovery
Q: What is a recovery?
A: A custom recovery is either TWRP, Philz or CWM (different versions), which allows you to install .zip files onto your phone on the go, without using your PC.
Q: How do I get it?
A: Please refer here.
Q: Which of the three (CWM, Philz, TWRP) is favourable to do xy?
A: To be honest, it depends. While most of the time you won't use CWM, it is up to you to use Philz or TWRP. Note however, that some Roms or wipes may require a specific one of the two. Always refer to the OP of your file source. If it states you should use a specific recovery, do so, as you may encounter problems if you do not.
Xposed
Q:What is Xposed? What can you do with it?
A:Xposed advanced framework is an awsome tool created by @rovo89 and helps you to easily mod your phone with tons of modules! For example you can blur your system UI, control which apps boot on start, or mod your phone to infinity. These are just few examples, I for my part use 13 xposed modules at the moment to get what I want from my device.
Q:Where do I get it?
A:Download it here if you're on LP or MM. Use the arm version, e.g. xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip
Now we have already learned the basics, so let's go a little further
Bootloader
Q:What is a bootloader?
A:
In literal terms, bootloader is code that is executed before any Operating System starts to run
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Refer here for further explanation.
Q:Why do I need to unlock it for a few Roms?
A:This is due to them using a different kernel, which would not work with a locked bootloader.
Q:I want Rom xy now, how do I unlock my bootloader??
A:Sony makes it a little easier than some other companies do, so have a look here. Note: Your warranty will be voided and you will lose your DRM keys!
Q:What are DRM keys? What is the TA partition?
A:As mentioned, unlocking your bootloader will wipe your DRM keys. These are unique keys generated by Sony to enable your access to some Sony-specific things. These include but are not limited to image capturing & viewing enhancements and access to PSN. The TA partition is the part of your phone where these keys along with your IMEI is stored. Before unlocking your bootloader you should backup your TA partition. How to do so? Have a look here.
Q:Help! I messed up/unlocked my bootloader without backing up my DRM keys.
A:I'm sorry to hear that. While you will not be able to get back your warranty, you can get back most of the functions. Look here for help.
Roms
Q:What are Roms?
A:To make it short: They are your OS, so your system that you're running on.
Q:What differences are there?
A:While we have many people use plain stock Roms, many here at xda favour modified Roms, be it to include Root or Xposed, or to go further by unlocking the bootloader (look prior topic) to flash Roms not based on stock, such as Cyanogenmod.
Q:How do I install Rom xy?
A:As long as you have it as a .zip file use your recovery, if its a .ftf file use flashtool.
Q:Where do I find (stock) Roms?
A:Luckily, there are collection threads for Roms here. Please refer here for pre-rooted stock Roms. If you want to reset your phone to its original state, use XperiFirm, it will help you download the .ftf for your phone!
Any further questions? Anything I missed? Please write it down below, I will add more Q&A's as we go
Feel free to link to this thread if one of these questions is repeated over and over in your thread!
It took me quite a while to organise this thing so please consider pressing "Thanks" if this post was helpful.

How can i recover my phone photos

I installed new soft to my phone and i lost some of photos, screenshot
If I rooted my phone, can I recover my data that was lost after the software update? Can I unroot it later without any effects or issues with banking apps and financial services?
Also, I hope there is a way to retrieve photos and files without rooting the phone because I have tried several methods on both the phone and PC, but they are not recognizing the device even though it appears on the Explorer.
Short answer:
1. A stable wired / wíreless ADB must be given
2. The partition that holds the data in question must be decrypted
3. The phone must be rooted
4. The partition in question must get dumped to PC
5. An external forensic software is needed to read the dumped partition / fles in question

To root your phone, you'll need to unlock the bootloader first.
If you unlock the bootloader, it will erase your internal storage and all files will be lost.
Is your bootloader unlocked as of now?
To keep you updated:
You are able to root Android without unlocking the bootloader, keyword: temporary root.
Even though it is possible in some cases to obtain root access without an unlocked bootloader, unlocking the bootloader is required to permanently root a device.

What are the uses of temporary root?
This post says it is not possible in Android 6 and newer.
I know that people around here who claim a temporary ROOT isn't possible at newer Android versions. That this still happens / happened here at XDA doesn't make things true.

Activating that option is just the first step. There are other things to do to unlock the bootloader.
Since your bootloader is locked as I expected, rooting to recover files is out of question now. That's because if you follow steps to unlock the bootloader, it will wipe everything on your phone. The question of recovery won't arise.

As I can see you've no idea what rooting Android means: it's simply spoken adding SU binary to Android's
filesystem - preferredly put it into RW-mounted /data/local/tmp directory. My recommendation: Become familiar with this, e.g. look inside here.

@shadyhoo if you factory resetted the device during update, your data is already lost.
You can root your phone after bootloader is unlocked. There might be a way to cheat bootloader and root with Magisk, but still the chances to recover any data is very low to zero. On flash memory the data is discarded right on deletion, recovery tools on file system level won't work because only the emmc flash memory controller (which runs it's own proprietary firmware) knows where the data is located. Only data that isn't discarded yet might be recoverable if it's not too long ago deleted.
It would be possible to get a dump of /dev/block/dm-0 and run extundelete if custom recovery were previously installed. Unfortunately the TWRP for Sony Xperia xz1 compact AFAIR requires custom kernel that supports FOTAKernel partition, boot image must include ramdisk extraction utility extract_elf_ramdisk for installing custom recovery. So this is a showstopper even on cheated bootloader lock.
you can however try to flash magisk patched boot image in EDL mode and see if that passes locked bootloader anyway, if the boot.img is properly AVB signed. if phone is rooted you can dump /dev/block/dm-0 during runtime.
But first clarify how the data was deleted. If a factory reset during the update occured it's absolutely pointless, because once the disk encryption key has changed the data is 100 % unrecoverable.

That's what happened to me an error occurred and the phone froze and then rebooted continuously, it never works, I tried to turn it on for a whole day uselessly bootloop continuously ,
I connected the phone. With a pc using sony companion pc program to repair software, app tell me will erase every thing while installing a new software and erased everything, and the phone appeared as a completely new object
through Google backup downloaded applications, messages, etc.,
but personal photos and files do not exist, and this is what I'm looking for
Do I have any chance to get my photos back or is there no chance ?

This counts as factory reset, therefore no chance sorry.
I'm sad to see so many people get into this position.
Backing up the data to MyMegaApp can be complicated because some of that is stored in /data/data/com.mymegaapp/...
Some of that is stored in /sdcard/Android/data/com.mymegaapp/...
Photos are generally stored in /sdcard/DCIM/Camera and that is trivial to backup.
Photos are probably the most valuable thing you have on your phone.
For Windows user, you can use my adbsync.exe in my sig.
Here is one line out of my "sync" script (actually a makefile):
Code:
adbsync /hscu /s C:\Handy\MotoG storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera
So at the same time I make sure that all my books and guitar transcriptions are on my device I also backup all the photos.
This probably happens multiple times a week.
And of course I backup my desktop too.

This. Or just do not care attitude. I still had that when the 1st mSD died. 2nd was bad, about half year of photos and such went. Still hoping to recover it somehow. Then 3rd one went not so long ago. Windows "fixed" it, but now it has some folder added, with files that I don't what they all are... less than a month of damage this time...
So, like Renate said, take backups and take them often.
Adbsync is really good indeed.
Although the usage instructions might need some more details/examples like above...
(Just like some of Renate's other progs - might... )

I was looking in the previous days to recover data from the phone and found a lot of programs, most of which require root for mobile and are not free, meaning that if I want to restore some files, I have to root and also format the phone!! And you all say that it is almost impossible to return files after formatting, so what do all these programs that require rooting the phone do?! I do not understand the usefulness of such programs
