[TOOL] zImage switcher v1 - HTC One S

*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. :P
* blah blah blah you get the point.
*/
With this tool you can change zImage inside a boot.img without modify the ramdisk.
Linux is required
download v1 64 bit: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23212708291675557
download v1 32 bit thanks @abonec : go to post
INSTRUCTION:
- unpack the zip
- copy the boot.img and the zImage in the same directory of "repack.sh"
- run repack.sh
Code:
./repack.sh
- the new boot.img will called "newBoot.img"

wha is a zimage brother???

it's the kernel, boot.img is kernel + ramdisk.
i made this simple tool to allow S-ON device users to flash my kernel, because in my zip there isn't the boot.img but only zImage

amaizing
Nice job
Will give it a try
Thnx a lot

i used android kitchen too it's a really cool tool, but for replace zImage this is simpler and faster, expecially for a newbie

Thx for tool but your image switcher for 64bit and on 32bit ubuntu it raise:
./repack.sh: line 2: ./tools/mkbootfs: cannot execute binary file
./repack.sh: line 11: ./tools/mkbootimg: cannot execute binary file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just compiled this files to my 32bit ubuntu from android kitchen and it works fine for me. Or you can do it by your self in root of android kitchen by:
Code:
gcc tools/mkboot/mkbootimg.c tools/mkboot/sha.c -o mkbootimg
gcc tools/mkboot/mkbootfs.c -o mkbootfs
And copy mkbootimg & mkbootfs to zImage_switcher/tools by replacing them.

@rmbq link for zImage switcher is down. May you reupload it again?

i don't have it anymore

[KERNEL][TREBLE][Linux 3.18.79] Wolf Kernel v1.0 for Ovvi SK3 and Brown&Proud Brown 1

Code:
/*

* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

INTRODUCTION
Wolf Kernel is a custom kernel project developed by @shiroyuki82 and tested by Черная мамба on his Ovvi SK3. The aim of the kernel is to give you the privilege of tasting the sweetness of Android Oreo and above without making a switch or swap. However, the result in building the kernel is positive but there's no way to flash it in an easy way due to its unexpected file extension.
In order to flash the kernel, you will be required to use Ubuntu 16.04 (x64) on your PC.
INSTRUCTIONS
Please make sure that you have already unlocked your Brown 1's bootloader and have already installed a custom recovery (TWRP 3.2.3 is highly recommended) in order to flash GSI images correctly. Using PBRP 2.9.0 is not recommended due it won't let us flash a system image on the system partition and that's a bug.
Code:
Instructions for Ubuntu 16.04, this process must be done on a PC that runs on Ubuntu 16.04
# dpkg — print-architecture
"armx64-a81" - this code should appear
After completing the first step, install environment chain drivers
# sudo apt-get install git
# sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev
then check or tick system arch and toolchain
# export PATH=tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian-x64/bin/:$PATH
this is where the process begins
# cd /
# sudo mv /tmp/kernel.img /boot
# ls /boot
# cd /boot
# sudo mv kernel7.img kernel7_old.img && sudo mv kernel.img kernel7.img
# sudo tar xzf /tmp/modules.tgz
# rm /tmp/modules.tgz
reboot
# sudo shutdown -r now
checker
# uname -r
Then voila! You have installed the Wolf Kernel on your Brown 1! Please keep in mind that the kernel can be used as a daily driver but it is not recommended to be used as a daily driver due to its heating issues that might cause your phone to be cooked.
DOWNLOAD
The stable build was only published, even though it is marked "stable," I don't recommend using it as a daily driver. This kernel was meant for testing purposes only, just for those who haven't got a single piece of Oreo cookie or a single slice of Pie .

[KERNEL][3.40][DM2] XPERIA M2 MagiskHide working kernel

Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
Finally I managed to build mount namespace enabled(required by MagiskHide) kernel for Sony Xperia M2.
I applied patch to the original kernel source code(available on Sony website), version 3.40(18.6.A.0.182)
So you don't need kernel 3.8+ for using MagiskHide
This kernel tested on D2302 device.
Kernel:
3.40 - 18.6.A.0.182
Features:
mount namespace(required by MagiskHide)
kernel configuration is available in /proc/config.gz
boot image format is AOSP, so there is no need to use Boot Bridge for flashing Magisk
Tools:
Ubuntu 14.04
gcc 4.7
mkqcdtbootimg (for building flashable boot image)
Flashtool 0.9.11.0 (for extracting kernel.elf from original .FTF)
Android Image Kitchen 3.6 (for extracting ramdisk and cmdline from original kernel image)
TWRP 3.1.0-0
Magisk 20.3 (20300)
Magisk Manager 7.5.1 (267)
Download:
DM2-V0100-D2302-boot.img
Installation:
Ensure device ROM version is 18.6.A.0.182 or based on that or has same working kernel
Download .img file
Power off device
Press Vol+
Hold Vol+ and connect device to your computer using USB cable
Device will boot in fastboot mode(verify that notification light color is blue)
run "fastboot devices" to ensure device is connected (fastboot print device serial number)
run "fastboot flash boot DM2-V0100-D2302-boot.img"
Ensure no error is occured during flash
run "fastboot reboot" to restarting device
After boot up check kernel version in Setting->About
Magisk can be flashed using TWRP
If MagsikHide not worked :
turn off and then on again MagiskHide in MagiskManager->Seetings
Hide Magisk Manager using "Magisk Manager->Settings->Hide Magisk Manager"
If you encounter bootloop or other kernel related problem:
Don't worry
Download original ROM 18.6.A.0.182 using XperiFirm or newer version of Flashtool bundled with XperiFirm
Install and Run Flashtool 0.9.11.0+(I used 0.9.11.0 version)
Click on "Flash Device" button in toolbar
Select "Flashmode" in "Bootmode chooser" window
Select downloaded ROM in left panel
Exclude eveything in right panel except KERNEL
Uncheck all WIPE options
Don't change other settings
Click "Flash" button and follow flash process
