[Q] boot.img repack - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok so what i realy need to do is get my 10 posts to be allowed to post in DEV
but here we go i have been developing for android for years and i have a fully rebuilt Moto G CDMA a while ago i decided to upgrade to 4.4.3 blur
Falcon_umts for stability reasons 4.4.2 has battery status isues WELL documented!!! it works as long as i replace the modem prats after install or just dont erase modemst1modemst2 on install.
i went to repack the boot.img and now the radio wifi and even the power off feature just sits there spinning it took a while to find tools that supported the newer boot.img-dtb space i found the Android Image Kitchen has this support and repacks fine and boots but i still have the modem and radio isues this works fine with stock 4.4.3 boot i even just unpacked it and repacked it with no mod
what am i missing here does the MotoG have a built in verifier for the Boot.img if so where can i find it i cant find it
im not new to dev so plz be technical
I use a combo of Ubuntu Linux x64 and Windows 7 X64 for dev

Solved
All i had to to do is copy the OEM init.rc script from the CDMA boot.img to the new boot.img then repack and it worked

SamHD V2.1 Custom ROM and boot.img issue

Hi guys,
I wish to install SamHD V2.1 which is recently been released by Kumar Abhishek, but this time he has not integrated the boot.img in the zip itself but just posted the ramdisk to make updated boot.img from boot.img of stock ROM.
I am not too comfortable in using SP Flash Tool as its driver always give me trouble, now my question is:
I have made my own updated boot.img using Android Kitchen now can I just integrate the boot.img in the SamHDv2.zip and flash my device like we use to do it with the older version of the Custom ROMs, is it safe to flash like this?
Secondly, would I be able to boot my device properly after flashing SamHDv2.zip and Gapps.zip (without flashing boot.img with SP Flash Tool)?
I am asking so if it boot properly can I use MobileUncle to flash updated boot.img?
I think if I integrate updated boot.img in the SamHDv2.zip it should work fine after we used to flash in this fashion earlier also but I got to be damn sure before I go ahead.
Please guys guide me I am a newbie.

[Completed] Problem booting with lollipop ROM from same variant (Desire 820s)

Hi everyone, I have a HTC Desire 820s running Kitkat 4.4.4 but there is a Taiwanese variant, the Desire 820ys which runs on Lollipop 5.0.2 and Sense 7 out of the box. Both are MT6752 MTK devices code named htc_a50ml_dtul.
I was able to get RUU zip for the Lollipop variant and thanks to nkk71 it was successfully decrypted without any errors. So I created a zip file using the boot.img and system.img and was able to successfully flash it with TWRP. The problem is that after flashing, the phone cannot boot into the system or recovery, HTC logo appears for about 30 secs, then it switches off for about 5 secs and the cycle continues(bootloop?). I could easily fix this with flashing kitkat boot.img with SP Flash Tool (cannot flash anything with the bootloaders in both phones )
What could be preventing the ROM from booting considering that they are of the same model hence no porting is required?
The boot file I extracted from the decrypted RUU was named boot_verified.img, does this mean it is signed or looks for some signatures before booting into recovery or system?
Thanks in advance

Edit kernel and rom logo from boot.img

Hi,
I wanted to ask how do you replace the first and second splash screen or at least one of them in the boot.img I was able to extract boot.img in Ubuntu but didn't find any .rle file in ramdisk. Also I read that the first splash screen is embedded in the kernel, what does that exactly mean and can I edit it ? I have an intel based German tablet the Tolino Tab 8 with KitKat 4.4.4
I do really want to do this and am able to learn everything, if there is the slightest chance let me know

[Completed] Need Help! Bootloop in 6044d. Need stock boot.img or recovery.img or stock ROM

Hi,
I was messing around with the phone and got a boot loop. I can't find the stock rom online and Alcatel doesn't have the official upgrade tool for my phone or at least I couldn't find it. I was going to compile android from source for this phone cause no one else has done it before but I need the stock boot.img or recovery.img for configuring build options in compilation environment in order to compile custom CWM and CM 13 or 14 o any other custom ROM.
Can anyone post me those stock boot.img or recovery.img so I can compile android from source for this model. I promise as soom as I get it going I will post results.
Thanks in advance!!
Regards!
Hi !
I see that you have posted here as well https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...d-bootloop-t3493789/post70812290#post70812290
Let`s keep it in one place
I would suggest you to search on the manufacturer`s website as well for a stock rom and be aware of the issues which may arise while rooting
Good luck !

[H960A] Short story with possible unbrick method for some people

Hi. Everyone.
Recently i "hard" bricked my V10 h960a . Which boot-looped few months before however i was able to fix it using tutorial below :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/v10-bootloop-fix-lengthens-life-t3694064
Using phone with 4 cores instead of 6 is not a big deal , so everything was fine until i deiced to Reset my phone to default. Phone boot-looped again and even after flashing boot.img (modified 4 cores) in fastboot there was no difference, no Recovery nothing. So i went to DOWNLOAD mode which was working fine in my phone but PC didnt see it at all, ( i had checked it on all possible laptops, cables etc ) . So re-locking boot-loader, flashing original firmware wasn't option for me. I had flashed TWRP , but i couldn't find FLASHABLE ZIP with H960A soft.
In desperation i start flashing whatever i had found on XDA DEV FORUM , flashable soft for T-MOBILE etc ( even when was not recommended )
So after good few hours of studying i made it !!! I had cooked my first flashable ROM in TWRP using ASSAYYED_KITCHEN_V1.82_STABLE .
I had to extract H960A30b_00_0616 KDZ FILE , to get system.img, i already had boot.img from the very 1st link in this post.
After flashing my STOCK ROM in TWRP, everything was fine until i boot to the system, i couldn't pass step after choosing the NETWORK ( wifi or mobile ) i was getting FORCE CLOSE windows popup with GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES , anyway i got this solved too
So if anyone looking for flashable zip for H960A Android Nougat 7.0 ( H960A30b_00_0616.kdz ) with 4 cores boot image, just let me know or i might open another post with tutorial.
PS. there is option to get DEODEXED, ROOTED, BUSYBOX etc stock rom but i dindt try it
anything about f600l
If you have working TWRP , flashable zip is an option for you. It did work for me
