It's my fault to have post this message here.
It's for G7, but I think it is also OK for Incredible.
========================================
1. Prepare a short mp3 and name it android_audio.mp3
2. Put the mp3 under the adb folder
3. Save the following code as !bootaudio.bat (I use this name)
4. Turn your phone into ADB debugging mode
5. run !bootaudio.bat
6. Reboot your phone and have fun!
This should work on almost all G7
Tips: During the boot animation, the volume would change twice. So I suggest insert 1 second before the audio for escaping from the volume changing side-effect.
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb shell rm /data/local/android_audio.mp3
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local/
adb shell rm /system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3
adb shell ln -s /data/local/android_audio.mp3 /system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3
adb shell ls -l --color=never /data/local
adb shell ls -l --color=never /system/customize/resource/
adb pull /system/customize/CID/default.xml
pause
Script description:
Mount the system path to enable writing access.
Remove the original boot sound if it exists.
Push your mp3 into the data/local, where the bootanimation.zip is.
Make a link to data/local/android_audio.mp3
List the two affected pathes for you to confirm the result
Pull the default.xml out from the phone, if you find it not work after reboot, you can check the xml to see what the actural fullpath it is using. And manually change the script to try again.
My current boot sound is attached to the thread.

No way here... It doesn't fuction... There is a problem in the batch file:

(ping 127.0.0.1 -n %1 -w 1000 > NUL)> sleep.txt
del sleep.txt
You have to push su in bin directory non in app directory...
Code:
[B]adb push su /system/app/su[/B]
Please correct this bug.
I've also tried to upload any file thought adb (after r/w mount), but the phone doesn't recognize the apk's (Superuser and Recovery), they still invisible...
Any solution?
Well done, i did it this:
- Downloaded your 2.21boot.zip;
- Flashed thought RSD;
- Downloaded Android SDK with ADB;
- Download this Rootpack http://www.mediafire.com/?kjee8aj22j9m5zj;
- Extract this files in you /sdk/tools directory;
- Open cmd and point it in the directory with ADB;
- Run this commands:
Code:
adb devices
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb push su /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
adb push busybox /system/bin/busybox
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
adb shell mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
adb reboot
- Flash back to 2.51boot.zip
That's all!
Thank you sir!

Thank you for Your Bug Report.
Is there any way now to flash back to an older SBF?
fixed recovery.exe = its not working , root exe not found windows warning
batch reply "root.exe not found" after double click the defy_recovery.exe
also, from above reply:
"mount: Operation not permitted"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
I found out the way to get this rooting working.
everything stays the same until running the recovery.exe part
then please refer to the old rooting method
BUT using the rooting pack mentioned above link
then flash back to 2.51
it should work!
cheers!

sorry sir,
About the root process, Why different with "http://bbs.goapk.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=48445&extra=%26page%3D1&page=1" ??
In goapk forum, the process2-> flash the original SBF? process3->Wipe data?
no need ?

this will work on HK TW SG version 2.51
can we have any details about the rooting process ?
i want to get the Taiwan version of the Defy (Blurless)
1) is there any way to get root access, but still use the firmware that came with the phone ? (TW SG HK 2.51) i wouldn't mind doing some stuff manually...
2) As far as i know the original ROM of the Taiwan SG HK defy isn't available for download right ?
thanks for your hard work.
tenfar, thank you very much for your great work, I just rooted my HK DEFY.
Here are few steps added for those like me very new to Android and Root.
1. If you RSD Lite did not recognize your DEFY, download the USB driver here:
http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/
2. Power off DEFY. Then press 'Volume Up' and 'Power' together to boot to loader before you flash the SBF to your DEFY.
Happy rooting.
Thanks
Now I finished my HK defy rooted.
Very thanks for tenfar.
rooting wit Uk 2.51 possible..not other ROM flashable
hi Guys.....i have installed the UK JRDNEM_U3_2.51....and the root method desribed here worked too...
My question is: What happens after
- rooting the Uk U3_25.1 with our method (Sytem.boot.only 2.1 2.5 etc.)
- Restore system with SystemRecovery-App "Recovery Boot"
- i restored with a backup of t-mobile U3_2.21 (from my friend)
-worked
??
Build Number ist U3_2.21.0 now
Did I downgraded my system now?
If yes,
the Problem is then:
I cannot flash any ROM (RSD 4.9) from here http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy
except the JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1_BLUR_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTGB02C.0R_USAJORDANRTGB_P035_A011_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
Therefore I dont believe i downgraded anything :-mad:
The flash-procedure with all other ROMs is the same:
RSD : finished --> Defy is not booting is hanging in the bootLoader-mode
Any Help?
Or anyone with a Vodafone 360 Original Backup that would be great
Thanks
hiya everyone, im new on here and really need some help.
im trying to downgrade my android software so im able to root it. only problem being ive never used command prompt lol!!
the guide im using says:
Launch a Command Prompt window and browse to the location of the files extracted in Step 1.
Enter the following commands:
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell
You should now get the # prompt, indicating temporary root.
Enter these commands:
cd /data/local/tmp
./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6
but how do i browse for the files if ive stored them in my documents and in a folder called downgrade android.
many thanks
keeps saying not a batch file :s
Moving them into the SDK tools folder temporarily would make things easier and would mean only the file name needs to be typed rather than the specific location, try it out, I hope I remembered correctly

you can either modify the command like this:
adb push C:\users\[YOURUSERNAME]\My documents\downgrade\psneuter /data/local/tmp
or setup a locale path variable to the dir, where adb is stored as mentioned in THIS thread. (step 4)
Then you can simply cd to the dir, where your files are stored, and run adb from there (actually you can run adb from any dir then)
I've got some questions about rooting on a locked device, which I may as well fire away.
I'm on .17 DE and has got it setup nicely, so I don't want to go to .29 just to try things out, and if something goes wrong it's better if the tablet has got a boot manager installed so rescue flash is possible. So, if someone who knows what they're doing wants to unroot and try this out (or just tell me if anything is feasible) I believe many people (primarily not rooted .WW-people, but maybe all current ICS-device owners) would be very happy.
Q1 - In the "tweaks" post seanzscreams mentions there may be a way to push build.prop to /system/ at boot.
Wouldn't it be possible to create some root stuff to push and run, like
(pushsu.bat)
Code:
adb wait-for-device
adb push su /system/
run it, reboot tablet
create a shell script file for permissions (or some other mojo) and push it aswell:
(permsu.sh)
Code:
chown 0.0 /system/su
chmod 06755 /system/su
and then run:
(pushper.bat)
Code:
adb wait-for-device
adb push permsu.sh /system/
and finally run and reboot:
(setperms.bat)
Code:
adb wait-for-device
adb shell sh /system/permsu.sh
?
Q2 - wolf849 is doing some funky stuff to downgrade firmware where he's mounting stuff at /data/local/tmp and rebooting for (I assume) permissions to write to the "stuff".
Would it be possible to test these commands (modified to possibly work or break something) (mmcblk0p1 = /system on my device):
(in adb shell or something)
Code:
mv /data/local/tmp /data/local/tmp.bak
ln -s /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data/local/tmp
exit
Then reboot and see if /data/local/tmp is in fact /system mounted rw (ie "copy or push su"-able).
If the former wouldn't work because of symlinking rights maybe another approach would be a bat file, like
Code:
adb mv /data/local/tmp /data/local/tmp.bak
adb reboot
adb wait-for-device
adb ln -s /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data/local/tmp
adb reboot
Please don't try these suggestions if you don't know how to recover from possible bootloops or semibricks.
I would try them if I'd been unlocked and boot managered, but I'm out of luck if something goes wrong.
Hi! I'm a noob user, with a weird tablet.
The brand is Olidata (Chile), and the model is Wb7-l. The first problem was that the tipycal: many worng pattern attempts. I though about the usual: hard reset, but this weird tablet doesn't have one!So I tried all button combinations to enter th the hard reset menu, but was unuseful.
Then, I found a post, it said that with a program I could put anoter ROM (PhoenixSuite), and with the ADB Drivers. I could put another ROM, but the touch system doesn't work. Then I searched a second and a Third ROM, but was the same. Then, I remembered that the chip was a A13, and I found another post, where a user said that with a script you could fix that problem. I use the script and... it died :crying: . After that, i tried to connect it to the computer again, but I couldn't.
THEN, i read the script. Now, i'm really really afraid, because maybe the Tablet is dead.
Here's the script:
(I open it with notepad)
@ECHO off
echo Remount
adb remount
adb shell cd /
echo Mount root
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/root /
echo Make dir bootfs
adb shell mkdir bootfs
echo Mount bootfs
adb shell mount -t vfat /dev/block/nanda /bootfs
echo Copy script.bin
adb push "script.bin" /bootfs/script.bin
echo Copy script0.bin
adb push "script.bin" /bootfs/script0.bin
echo Copy zet6221.ko to /system/vendor
adb push "zet6221.ko" /system/vendor/zet6221.ko
adb shell chmod 644 /system/vendor/zet6221.ko
echo Copy zet6221_ts.idc to /system/usr/idc
adb push "zet6221_ts.idc" /system/usr/idc/zet6221_ts.idc
adb shell chmod 644 /system/usr/idc/zet6221_ts.idc
echo Copy preinstall.sh
adb push "preinstall.sh" /system/bin/preinstall.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/preinstall.sh
echo Copy setupsensors.sh
adb push "setupsensors.sh" /system/bin/setupsensors.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/setupsensors.sh
pause
adb shell reboot
How can I undo what I did? What's the right ROM? (The other one was one called F1(A13)-20121129.1.1.1- )
Please, please help
(Sorry for my weird english, I know just a bit )
