DVD-R burned with vanilla Android 4.1.1 - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I have just burned a DVD-R connected to my Padfone 2 under vanilla Android 4.1.1. Here are the steps:
(0) install version 9 of gentooandroid.sourceforge.net on a device on which step (4) below can be done (root rights will do).
(1) Connect the DVD writer with an OTG cable, a V cable if you can http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Micro-USB-Ho..._MobilePhoneDataCables_JN&hash=item417d1627de or use a powered USB HUB.
(2) /dev/sg0 should appear
(3) dmesg (if run as root) should show
Code:
[15:35:07.998763](CPU:0-pid:29826:scsi_scan_0) scsi 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 5
and take note of the 0:0:0:, which will be refered to as dev=0,0,0 below.
(4) Setup /dev/sg0 so that it will be accessible from Terminal IDE:
Code:
chgrp-moved 10105 /dev/sg0 ; chmod 660 /dev/sg0
where 10105 is the gid of terminal IDE (or, in my case, terminal emulator)
(5) install cdrecord with
Code:
FEATURES=-sandbox PORTAGE_BINHOST=http://sourceforge.net/projects/gentooandroid/files/packages/packages emerge --autounmask-write -gbav --binpkg-respect-use=y cdrtools
(6) insert a blank DVD-R media and close the drive
(7)
Code:
cdrecord dev=0,0,0 driveropts=help -checkdrive
which shows:
Cdrecord-ProDVD-ProBD-Clone 3.00 (--) Copyright (C) 1995-2010 Jo:rg Schilling

(8) Burn NOW the content of directory/ on the DVD-R:
Code:
mkisofs -V DVDName directory/ | cdrecord -v -dao -tsize `mkisofs -V DVDName -print-size directory/`s fs=6m speed=2 dev=0,0,0 -
(9) eject manually, and test media on another computer.
I may post a video of (8) if asked for that, showing the DVD-R writer in action.

i will try it and tell you.....good work

If you have any problem installing gentooandroid, I can help you. You can use this thread for example.

Mounting in Gentoo Linux with A2SD partitions

I am running cyanogen's rom with a fat32 partition and ext3 partition. When i run fdisk on the device /dev/sdb, i get this as a result and it looks ok:
Code:
# fdisk /dev/sdb
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sdb: 8067 MB, 8067743744 bytes
249 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1020 cylinders

Disk identifier: 0x000eadb7

/dev/sdb1 1 941 7263548 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/sdb2 942 1005 487398 83 Linux
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
however, I cant mount my partitions reliably. Sometimes when I plug it in, I get the fat32 partition as /dev/android, and sometimes I get the ext3 partition. but under both circumstances, i NEVER see /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdb2.
Code:
# ls /dev | grep sd

however, my dmesg reports this:

it takes a bunch of tries of unplugging the usb and plugging it back in until it finally somehow mounts my fat32 partition under /media/disk. Is this some configuration issue? Before I partitioned my sdcard, it was fine mounting just a fat32 partition as the entire card, no problems.
check you hald

udevd --version ??
since version 140 those stupids rules messed up with removable devices.
Since I'm lazy I built my kernel with genkernel and it took care of everything about udev.
Code:
# udevd --version
141
so its a rule in udev that is screwin this up?
i'm not using genkernel, I rolled my own kernel out, have been doing it this way for years.
Code:
# uname -a
Linux john5788 2.6.29-gentoo-r5 #1 SMP Fri May 29 16:56:58 PDT 2009 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Yeah i think ...
what's the output of dmesg |grep EXT3-fs ?
the output has a bunch of instances last night when i was plugging and unplugging the device. like i said, sometimes it recognized my fat32 partition, sometimes ext3.

ok it seems one of partitions is broken i've looked around the web
try to :
e2fsck -p your /home partitions and
fsck.vfat -p /dev/sdb1 and e2fsck -p /dev/sdb2
I don't use any kind of automation, not even hal, but I have the same issue, without corruption though.
However, I have found that using cfdisk on /dev/sdb makes /dev/sdb{1,2} appear magically, and I can mount them correctly.
That's not really elegant, but it works for me.
I use adb push most of the time anyways, that way I don't have to unmount the SD from the phone and everything is smooth.

tht's strange cfdisk should not help mounting the devices but if it work it's worthing give it a try.
it has to be something with hal and rules :
emerge -pv hal dbus
etc-update
should get rid of that problem
PS : Zappletoo what linux distribution are you using ??
Gentoo.
But I don't use HAL, I don't see any good reason to. I'll try to activate it to see if it makes a difference, but I doubt it.
I'm not sure why cfdisk helps, maybe it simply updates the partition table somewhere.
Update : starting hald makes it work. Using partprobe works as well.. So I guess I was right about the partition table part.
what do you mean use cfdisk on it?
did you just select mount from the phone, then run cfdisk /dev/sdb, then immediately quit?
no no run cfdisk on your computer
Edit: yes I misread. That's what he did.
If things goes well your 2 partitions should appear

Yes, on the computer.
Apparently it does the same as partprobe, which is available in the sys-apps/parted package.
Hald does everything automatically though, but it's bloated.
Never had a problem with gentoo. No Hal...udev 1.41...custom kernel. Somewhere else on this forum however someone pointed out the phone doesn't show up properly in linux without first probing it. i.e. 'fdisk -l /dev/sda'. This has worked for me whenever I choose to mount it (which is almost never cuz i love adb).

Android with Wifi Thread - Cooler wifi

Update:
handsets are becoming very hot when wifi is used, you can make them use less power by using the rootfs.img provided, changes where made to tiwlan.ini during testing which keeps the wifi on active even when not in use, this version has reverted the changes and now power saving can be used once more.

Wakelocks?
Looks like this thread has served its purpose
Wow, are you actually doing all of these commands through the phone? >_<
I really want to see wifi rollin on android too, can't wait to load the ol' Tilt up with it.
the '-f' option
Hi,
a short question, you wrote...
Code:
'wpa_supplicant -f -Dtiwlan0 -itiwlan0 -c/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf &'
...and I've allready seen this in different ohter posts, but I don't know what the '-f' option effects.
I allready browsed the manpages an this option ins't listed. I just tried the command without this statement and it also worked (but did not create the output '-Dtiwlan0' to '/data/local/tmp'). But wlan also doesn't work...
For Polaris users who might need this info:
First things first, make sure wlan works in Windows Mobile. This seems to be the procedure for getting the wlan into do something in Android. It seems to be very similar to the wifi tethering guides on the G1.
Custom Kernel
We need a kernel, the kernel config produced by make vogue_defconfig ARCH=arm leaves the wireless extensions disabled, so this might the cause of the missing mac address in ifconfig. Current attempts to produce a kernel with these extensions have caused the settings dialogues and ifconfig to hang, Ctrl+C does not force an exit. I'll continue to investigate this.
Tiwlan kernel module
I've found another version of the tiwlan driver, other than the one that is currently in git master which loads the firmware and gives the ok - OK
Download Update: This driver skipped checks, ignore it
so lets see if we can merge this with the newer driver to get a working one.
Initial Variables
Code:
setprop wifi.interface tiwlan0
WLan Commands
Modprobe Method:
Code:
mkdir -p /lib/modules/`uname -r`
cp /sdcard/wlan.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/
Insmod Method:
Code:
insmod /sdcard/wlan.ko
Tiwlan0 Mac address: No
Required Output: TIWLAN: Driver loaded
WLAN_Loader
Code:
wlan_loader -f /sdcard/Fw1251r1c.bin -e /proc/calibration -i /sdcard/tiwlan.ini
Tiwlan0 Mac address: No
Required Output: Set property wlan.driver.status = ok - Ok
ifconfig -a might need to show a mac address at this point, i'm still not sure when ifconfig -a gets the mac address info
Code:
wpa_supplicant -ddK -Dtiwlan0 -itiwlan0 -c/sdcard/wpa_supplicant.conf &
ifconfig -a must show a mac address or the next step will error out, you can assign one using the following command, just change it to mac address you see in windows. However simply assigning one with this command might not be enough, it could be the sign of a bigger problem.
Code:
ifconfig tiwlan0 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00:00
Code:
ifconfig tiwlan0 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig tiwlan0 up
Log Collecting:
Dmesg - Its a ring buffer so as new info is added old info will be removed, you need to run the command right after insmod or modprobe to see if it worked ok.
Code:
[B]dmesg|grep -i wlan[/B]
TIWLAN: Found SDIO controller (vendor 0x104c, device 0x9066)
TIWLAN: Driver initialized (rc 0)

If i'm right The kaiser has 1.1. the G1 has 1.2, its a reference to the chip used.
Logcat
You can run logcat at the start to keep a log of everything the machine has done since android has started. If you run it like this it will keep logging to the file as you run other commands so when you boot back to WM and sync you can open the file in an editor like Notepad++ and see what happened. This is the first thing i run when i get to the root shell
Code:
logcat -f /sdcard/debuglog.txt &
After running the wlan_loader you can run this to check it worked ok:
Code:
[B]grep -i 'wlan' /sdcard/debuglog.txt[/B]

Email to...
The terminal emulator in android should have an option in the menu to email everything you've seen to an email address, use that to keep logs of the entire session. Better terminal has this feature, but it stopped working, try
Files
Fw1251r1c.bin
The firmware filenames of the G1 and the Kaiser have the same name. So we should get a list of good kaiser firmware to rule firmware issues out as soon as possible. If you can connect in windows mobile to a wpa secured AP then the Fw1251r1c.bin in the windows folder on the rom should be the one you are using in Android.

thanks,
how did you manage that configMge doesn't fail on start? I still get 'rc = -1'. Did you build a new 'wlan.ko' with the Kernelsource from git (Vogue/Kaiser)? And what firmware are you using (the original or the extracted?)
maybe you can post your files for testing...

Its either the variable being set or modprobe being used that does the trick, so try those, i'm in the middle of compiling a newer kernel to see if it works better
Thx for the short Tutorial and the scripts. Unfortunately I still get the message:
Code:
'ConfigMge start rc = -1'
I think the reason is the (my) wlan.ko module - it shows following message/warning while loading (insmod and modprobe)
Code:
wlan: version magic '2.6.25-00818-gf668526 preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.25-00832-g42c5da5 preempt mod_unload ARMv6'
but its loaded...
especialy lsmod gives me another value for the second number (think the allocated memory):

Upon further investigation it turns out that a specific version of the firmware and a compatible wlan.ko are needed to get it to work, i'm rolling up a fresh system.img to test now, i'll post it if it works

So you'll have to compile a custom kernel, then a custom wlan.ko before you try this. I have also uploaded the wifi firmware, a link is in the first post
Custom Kernel:
I use the Kernelsources from git ("git.linuxtogo.org", vogue branch). I also tried to build the 'wlan.ko' from Android-source (I set 'KERNEL_DIR' to the Folder of my Kernel source). If I run make I get some errors because of missing include-files.
//Edit: just made symlink to arm-msm
If I'm home on weekend I try to build a new wlan.ko for my kernel. Is there anything, that needs to be patched for kernel 2.6.25?
btw. I found this page http://www.johandekoning.nl/index.php, there are some information about wlan and firmware loading issues (for the G1, but nearly the same problemes)
I didn't do anything special to get a wlan.ko, just compiled it as normal:
Code:
KERNEL_DIR=/Android/kernel make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
Current status from error log:

Sorry, my mistake, i did in fact have a different driver version. I have uploaded it, check the first post. This driver does not seem to work and will need to be modified.
thanks for the files, where did you get them? Compiling worked without any failure (just had to create a symlink to 'arch-msm'
it seem as if the firmware is loaded (on my phone it only works with the fw of the G1). I think it is realiy loaded because you get 'failed - OK' if you try to load it a 2nd time.
by the way have you extraced wlan-eeprom ('/proc/calibration') http://projects.linuxtogo.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=32&group_id=37&atid=273

Yes, i have extracted my eeprom file and i have found my mac address in there 3 times, which seems strange. I found the area which has the same start as the carlibration of a G1 (found here) and extracted a chunk to get the same size file. I tried it but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Maybe the data is read after the point at which we are having errors?
So I've played a bit around with the files. At the moment the driver is loaded and the firmware is accepted. But the wlan adapter still doesn't get a Mac.
Btw. if you take a look at the eeprom-file you find the MAC from Offset 0x5C to 0x61 in reverse order. Would be interesting the G1 eeprom-file looks like. Maybe somebody can 'cat /proc/calibration > /sdcard/calibration.bin'.
//***OK nearly the same as you said - should write faster***//
OK, yes found the offset in my file, but the its a bit different
Code:
G1:
02 11 56 06 1C 06 01 16 60 03 07 01 09 56 12 00 00 00 01 0D 56 40
Kaiser:

Ah, i made a mistake, still need to find where the contents of calibration are in the rom dump
Ok in romdump there are some more Offsets (0x243E5C8, 0x2500040, 0x2500840, 0x2520040 from full rom-dump) that have nearly the same byte order
But only in 0x2500840 and 0x2500040 my MAC is included --> I've checked with 'diff' both extracted Offsets (752 Byte) and they are same

Ok i found the correct location, I searched for 021156061c in the eeprom dump and found it. I haven't had a chance to test this yet. Also another interesting thing to note is that both the kaiser' and G1's mac address started with 00:18 :41

[Q] Linux - Mounting SD card over USB?

I've hooked my new G2x up to windows, installed LG drivers, and get two separate drives to access Internal memory and external SD card.
However, when I hook it up to my Gentoo box, It only seems to recognize internal memory.
Looking at dmesg, here is what seems to be the relevant output:
Code:

I assuming I'm at least missing a kernel module. Any ideas as to which it would be?
(Kernel 3.0, udev+udisks)
This is just a guess but do you have "ntfs-3g" installed on your box?
Yes, I do have two partitions mounted with ntfs-3g.
Is this an issue/conflict?

/dev/ttyUSB?

Hi,
I have a program that logs serial port data. In order to do so it requires the full device name in linux (e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0) and a baudrate. This application works flawlessly on and Linux machine.
I am having some difficulty getting it ported to Android. I can't find the right device name for my plugged in devices.
Does anyone know how I can find out the device name in the terminal? I am trying to port this application to Android and cant figure it out.
Busybox gives me quite a few command line options whic is nice. However, nothing has seemed to provide necessary info yet.
#lsusb shows the device but with no path
#mount only shows its mount point
Under /dev I get:

[Completed] [Q] How to root T-Mo Galaxy Note 4 from Linux (Ubuntu/Debian)?

Any ideas? So far I've tried hiemdall, Jodin (which is friggen awesome) and towell apk.
Bottum line seems to be that I can't get access to the PIT.
Procedures up to this point: Dowload necesary images. Put phone into usb debug mode. Put phone into download mode and plug in. USB.
Q: Does it matter hat version of USB? I have both types of ports but was using the 3.0 at the time. I'll see if trying it on 2.0 has any effect.
A: It does change things but not for the better. On USB 2.0, the device is not even detected. Interesting.
Idea: The box in question is a custom built water-cooled war machine for gaming. I'll give this a try on my System76 laptop and see if results are different.
Output from hiemdall looks like this:
Code:

I don't have your device, so I'm not an expert about it.
But I found a guide how to root a similar device (Note 2) ... also for Linux: Galaxy Note 2 Root Tutorials! [Windows/Mac/Linux].
And if you know how to flash something to your device on linux, you can use the easiest rooting method IMO: [SM-N910*] CF-Auto-Root.
If you have further questions about your device, just ask in the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Thread closed and thank you.
