[Completed] Help modifying some firmware - XDA Assist

This thread is indirectly related to http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...-931w-failed-to-update-modem-s7-931u-t2843822
So, I working on some firmware and I trying to stop some sh*it which is executing after device boot.
I extracted firmware and everything and now I find out that inside bin folder is script related to a problem - script which updates modem - because that's newer fw for two HW identicaly devices, except that one have modem - so I want to install to one which don't have modem because one with modem is much better updated.
So now I wondering how is that script executed in bin folder, how I can stop that so I can repack firmware and flash it and woth hope that problem will not occur again?
For more details please read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...-931w-failed-to-update-modem-s7-931u-t2843822
I know that nobody likes this tablet, but the solution I seek is directly related to standard Android firmware.

Hi,
Unfortunately there isn't a device specific forum for you to go to but there does appear to be plenty of posts about your phone in the general q&a forum found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
This would be a good place to ask, otherwise I found a roundup of available ROMs for you here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466757
Maybe it will work with one of the others
Best of luck!

i tried the link for the factory rom and it was a dead link said file was no longer there for download. to be honest since there is alot involved in flashing the phone with the most current firmware available i am going to just pass and just keep what the phone currently has firmware wise. i do not want to by mistake brick the phone. all i really want to do is have on hand a copy of the most current firmware for my phone so in the event i need to re-flash it i can. i have tried seeking the firmware file for the phone but keep hitting dead links. thank you for your time. if u do have a live link so i can download a up to date firmware for the phone i could use that. thank you

[Completed] [Q] Problem with backup

Hello.
I have a problem ..... ¬_¬ obvious ... I made a backup of the phone with droidtools, but I did not create the "user data.img", "cache.img", "system.img" files .
And now I can not restore my phone. :crying::crying::crying:
And I've searched a lot, but there is no rom for my phone.
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks in advance :good:
Note: Translated from Spanish by Google .....
Hola,
Bienvenidos a XDA.
If you were still on stock when you created your backup and you want stock back you can reflash your stock firmware via PC with whatever flashtool is compatible with your device. If you post your device model number I can at least get you pointed in the right direction to finding your answer.

My phone is a MPIE P3000T, I searched everywhere to no avail. I have the backup, but missing those .img not help me ...... Could .img separate package the files? Or if you know of any place where I can find a rom for my model ....

Unfortunately, I am not finding any ROMs for you on XDA. You'll have to find your stock firmware by doing a google search using your device's model number, find it, get it downloaded and flash it from PC with whatever flashtool is for your device.
You can try posting in the forum linked below.

Sorry, just I wondering, but I'm more interested in whether there is any tool to package the files that I need.

The tools you use will depend on your device, generally, Linux can be used for manipulating things like that on all android devices but the tools to make use of what you put together in Linux will depend on your device. How to use Linux to package things correctly for your device would be better answered by those that have your device, I am not familiar with your device so those kinds of things I couldn't tell you.
You should post your question in the link I gave you, the members there may have more answers for you than I do. There are too many kinds of android devices out there to learn them all, its best to find those that have learned that device.

[Completed] The not-so-much-talked-about rom: Miui (themes, reverts back to default theme)

Hola guys. To all of you. Particularly the ones who are familiar with MIUI. I will just stick to the point. If you ARE familiar with miui then you must have come across those flashy themes. You must also have found out the way to bypass the infamous theme policy WSM tools and Xposed and all. But I recently started taking interest in those flashy themes. You know that once you download a theme from the default Themes app the mtz file starts getting downloaded and as soon as the downloading has finished it gets unpacked into bits (com.android.contacts, com.miui.home, icons, lock_wallpaper, locksreen and so on) and gets copied to the MIUI folder in main storage and again into data/system/theme. This is the first problem. I can't copy the whole mtz file to a safe place because it gets unpacked as soon as it has been downloaded which is basically a zip file containing several other zip files that is, the 'bits' I was talking about. Second thing. the default themes app does not recognize mtz files downloaded from the official miui themes website. It declares them as third party themes. What I did was, took some of those 'bits' and replaced some XML files inside them and some png elements and put them back into data/system/theme. But miui has a way to prevent this from happening. As soon as it detects a modified file present in data/system/theme it reverts back to the default plain theme by deleting all files from data/system/theme. My guess is it keeps checking out verifying in regular intervals the checksums that it must have generated earlier. The same thing happens if I just replace a bit in the mentioned directory with a bit from another theme. So my questions are:
1. Is there a way to preserve the mtz file downloaded from within the default Themes app as a whole mtz file?
2. Can I make changes to just the Themes app so that it would apply any mtz file?
3. Is there a way to prevent miui from continuously checking or verifying the checksums that it has generated? (just a guess but I reckon thats what it actually does) because for an hour or so after replacing or modifying the 'bits' everything works fine but the reverting process takes place in an hour or so.
Thats all folks! jk. Any help or suggestion would be really appreciated because I think a thread like this was long since needed here. And dont talk about visiting MIUI's official forums. Most of the guys there don't know half the things that is really worth discussing. Thank you guys.
note- dont want to use WSM tools nor can I find one for miui7.
note2- if I change the permissions of the folder (data/system/theme) to 444 allowing READ permissions only, the phone would just reboot without warning and continue to reboot until the permissions are changed back to normal (755).
No one?

I am starting to feel MIUI is really not so popular here on XDA. Blimey after about a hundred views not a single reply, let alone helpful ones. Anyway I will leave the thread as it is just in case somebody who had the same problem and found a workaround, sees the post.
XDA Assist is for newbies, who need help finding their way oround on XDA. XDA Assist is only for pointing users into the correct section. Not a discussion forum.

[Completed] Can't find gsm call audio data before transmission in kernel android

I am working on a project in which I want to fiddle with the voice data before sending it on gsm. I read that this can be done by creating my own ROM and tweaking the kernel but since I am a complete noob at this I haven't been able to find the files which I need to edit.
I am using Samsung S4 kernel. I searched all the files with keyword gsm in them, but the only file which seemed relevant was n_gsm.c in drivers/tty but it doesn't have anything about voice data.
If anyone can direct me to which file I need to edit, it would help me greatly.

Greetings and welcome to assist. I'm assuming you have downloaded the source code from samsung and done a grep search for the relevant files ? There are a few excellent guides in xda university for kernel building where you will get help from the experts
