kernel only booting into download mode. [solved] - Galaxy Note II, Galaxy S III Developer Discussion

i am normally building my kernel standalone, but now i wanted to add inline-kernel-building support for it.
for this i have commited this:
https://github.com/DerTeufel/androi...mmit/70104d40af4355346590a84391882a70e53ccabc
and in my defconfig i am pointing to the initramfs to use:
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="source/ramdisks/t0lte-combo/"
it's the same as i use always, just added source/ in front.
link to ramdisks: https://github.com/DerTeufel/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/tree/dualboot/ramdisks
if i am flashing the resulting boot.img now, the device boots straight into dl mode, even without asking to confirm it with power up.
what am i mssing here?

Ramdisk is not correctly packed on your boot.img or is a problem with boot partition. If is jump straight to download mode the boot.img is corrupted or missing.

Is there something wrong with my commit to /build? I had seen, galaxy s1 is building in a similar way
Gesendet von meinem GT-N7105 mit Tapatalk 2

I have realised now, that on the s1 I just can take the zImage and rename it to boot.img to make everything work. This does not work for the note2. I guess this is the problem here.
My question is now, how can I modify the build system to create a proper boot.img, without adding the Ramdisk twice? By building the kernel standalone, I am only adding the modules to the Ramdisk. But for this I need to build the kernel and modules before building the Ramdisk. Anyone can tell me how to do this?

For windows users:

For linux users search adequate bootimg-tools.zip

Thx, but sadly this is not what I am needing. I want to modify build system to build the boot.img the way I need it, not afterwards, because I want building the kernel to be automated.

[KERNEL][HELP] Stweaks problem

Hi.
I did my first kernel for note 2, everything is correct. I wanted to make my kernel compatible with Stweaks but didn't work out.
I did everything in the ramdisk but are missing some files. I guess that I have to modify some files .c or .h.
Thanks for the help.

You only need to modify the ramdisk. What did you change? And what error are you getting?

Loading modules built from stock --verification failed 64

Hi,
I've enabled in the stock 4.3 kernel of N7100 fuse support.
The kernel compiles with fuse.ko module. When I try to load the kernel module I get:
insmod: init_module '/sdcard/fuse.ko' failed (Exec format error)
and in syslog:
<4>[21999.381035] c0 TIMA: lkmauth--wait_notify completed.
<6>[21999.381252] c0 mcdrvkmod mcd: 501|Err tima verify_module: Module Hash value does not match, addr:200000, len:ba780
<6>[21999.381386] c0 mcdrvkmod mcd: 501|Module Hash value not match
<6>[21999.381466] c0 mcdrvkmod mcd: 801|Trustlet tima_lkmauth::Returning 0
<3>[21999.382168] c0 TIMA: lkmauth--verification failed 64

<3>[21999.383274] c0 TIMA: lkmauth--unable to load kernel module; module len is 763776.
Apparently, the module is not signed. It was build from stock... I don't understand why it should be a problem...
Can I self sign it or something? Can I disable the signature checking in the stock kernel, flash it and then load the module?
I don't really need fuse... I want the rt73usb driver and fuse was just a test....an unsuccessful one..
I don't want to use custom roms with strange names....I like the stock one.
Any help appreciated
Are you using the new bootloader of sammy 4.3?
If not, disable TIMA in your kernel, then your modules pass the check. This is how I made wifi work on the leaked 4.3 roms

I have custom recovery so I guess that the bootloader is unlocked.
I want to understand the logic here, If I can't load a built from stock module, I shouldn't be able to load the freshly built kernel by the same logic, right?
Can you please link to disabling TIMA reading material? I get nothing from google.
Thank you
I am not talking about a unlocked bootloader. Samsung 4.3 comes with a new bootloader if you flash it by odin.
If you use a zip to install it, your bootloader is still the one from 4.1.2
As far as I know / think it is working, TIMA uses something within the bootloader to verify the module is valid.
If you have TIMA enabled, but old bootloader, the verification always fails.
You should grep for TIMA in your kernel source, and set the default to n in every Kconfig and just remove it from your defconfig (or set it to: not set) and also from your main kernel makefile

I've OTA updated to 4.3 . How do I check bootloader version?
I grep'ed the kernel source for TIMA before posting here. Nothing...
Maybe this one?

That's not possible. I've merged the source into my kernel, and there was TIMA in it. Which source did you download? What grep command did you use?

Downloaded from opensamsung n7100 update 2
grep -rn "TIMA" /path/to/kernel_source
That's not the 4.3 kernel source.
I am wondering the kernel even booted. It should give black screen because of wrong (old) mali driver.

Didn't try to boot it. What do you mean not the 4.3 kernel source? what is it?
Where do I get the stock 4.3 kernel source?
I think it is the n7100 swa update 1, which is 4.3 kernel source

You're right. It was the wrong source.
Added "default no" in security/tima_uevent/Kconfig
and commeted TIMA in the make file.
I needed to copy dhd.ko to /lib/modules to make the wifi work again.
Thank you for the help

New Adreno GPU driver for S4 9505

!!!!!! ONLY WORKS WITH CM11 !!!!!!
(and maybe other aosp roms)
!!!DOESN'T work with touchwiz rom!!!
UPDATE 24.6.2014!!!!
These are the most recent GPU drivers from qualcomm (24. June 2014).
These newer ones should provide better performance and some bug fixes.
Zip is modified to work on cm11 roms.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Flash at your own risk!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not responsible for any damage!!
If the phone doesn't boot after 3 minutes, restart recovery and flash latest cm11 zip again.
Link:
http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/32772090/file.html
I will update the OP every time new drivers are available.
Have fun
Status update:
I'm working on touchwiz 4.4.2 rom compatibility.. Stay tuned.
Will NEVER work on tw 4.3 roms.
Guess there'll be some beta tests.

what are the improveness?
Yea, I'm also pretty curious! And could you tell where you got them from?
Me Gusta!
Which version would this be? I've got 53.0 atm.
Edit: ok, 66.
here it is the changelist
And does it make everything so much better?
Me Gusta!
Just download from the same link as change list, you need to make a account... I've flashed the zip, will report back with results.
Result: I can't notice any real improvement in general use or in bench.. Il test further.

You should check if you flashed it correctly... Check Antutu benchmark (system info) should be driver v66 (old one is v54)
Edit: seems it's ok.

Check screenshot mate, I found why it didn't work first time.... If you are on f2fs you have to manually mount system before flashing and it will work thanks mate.
Link added in OP. Have fun. Doesn't change benchmark scores BUT some games work better with it (less graphic glitches). UI seems better too.

Great, got rid of the silly warning screen
Easy and done.
Great job aligning the warning screen Google logo. Can't even see when it switches to the regular boot logo.
Any chance you can post an undo, just in case?

Hello,
First of all, thank you for this mod !
It's working fine on my 5X unlocked bootloader, pure nexus rom (18 feb 16) with ElementalX 1.06 kernel :good:
Cheers
this looks great!
just confirm then, to install this we flash the zip, and to uninstall (if bootloder changed or etc), we flash the stock.zip, right? No need to go into ADB fastboot w/ a PC?

If you reflash or upgrade your bootloader it replace my themed imgdata with stock, which imho contain all bootloader images. So for this process in unnecessary to restore, but if you will YES you have to just flash that zip through recovery.

But the OTA will fail when trying to verify imgdata partition, in the case it tries to patch BL, right?

To be honest, I'm not sure if it'll fail, but I was writing about manual upgrading with fastboot, not OTA.

Problems with booting into recovery

Hey guys so it looks like I got twrp into boot and recovery on my phone because when I try to start it up it just starts into recovery. I have access to the fastboot but don't have any oxygen roms on the phone to boot from. Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks!

Yes but I can currently only access fastboot mode and adb devices doesn't show the phone connected so I can't adb push to it. If I try to fastboot boot the twrp recovery, that fails on me as well.
