Creating a flashable ODIN file - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Creating a flashable ODIN file - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Not sure if this has been posted before, so I apologize in advance if that's the case, but I was hoping I could get some insight on how to create a flashable tar file for ODIN.
I have been researching this for a few weeks, and this site is my #1 resource for information, so I would just like to give out a huge shout out to everyone that helps out on here with your tuts, files, and your knowledge.
Here is an overview of what I am working with.
I have a SM-G930T phone - Tmobile Carrier
It is unrooted using the eng boot file and "SuperSU-v2.76-S7QC"
I am running Android 6.0.1
Baseband: G930TUVU1APG1
Kernel: 3.18.20-7856276-eng
Build #: MMB29M.G930TUVU1APG1
What I'm trying to accomplish.
I am able to make a dump of the system through ADB shell using this information:
Code:

dd if=/dev/block/sda20 of=/sdcard/system.img
OR
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system of=/sdcard/system.img
Both work great, but this img that is dumped isn't ODIN flashable if I put it into a tar file.
Now I was reading it has to be converted using "img2simg"
So I did that.
I tried several variation of that:
img2simg system.img system.img.ext4
img2simg system.img system.img.ext4 4096 <-- being the block size
I also tried using ext2simg
ext2simg system.img system.img.ext4
ext2simg -S system.img system.img.ext4
I've tried using the tools provided in "ANDROID_IMG_REPACK_TOOLS_CYGWIN_x64-86_6.0.1"
I have also tried doing it manually through CYGWIN directly.
At one point it looked like everything was going through properly in ODIN.
I created a tar file and then added the md5 checksum
and when I flashed it in ODIN, it was uploading the file and it got to the end and then I got a error. I can't remember what it was, I think it had something to do with wrong file version or something. My guess is that the system.img.ext4 file doesn't have the correct "header" or something in there that validates it properly.
Any way, I'm hoping someone can guide me through this. I know that there are roms available that are zip format, but I'd like to learn to do this on my own and ideally through an ODIN flashable file if possible.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Don't mean to bump this, but I wanted to update..
I'm attaching the error I get in ODIN
On my phone I get "SECURE CHECK FAIL : system"
Thanks in advance for any help.

Permission denied for cat

yep, that's what I figured but it was still worth a shot. :x
You'll need root. If you can get it before you have to surrender that tab, it'd be great.

run this one:
Code:
cat /proc/partitions
and this one:
Code:
fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
this command would be interesting too:
Code:
cat /proc/cmdline
And if the file exists execute "adb pull /proc/config.gz"(or copy it via rootexplorer) and post it here. It's the kernel-config

Cool - these are btw mostly generic tegra names, while most are probably obvious I've "translated" them below.

There's no standard "dos" partition anywhere, so that won't work.

At least cmdline is actually protected from normal users in newer kernels and same with config.gz I believe. Worth a shot though. (FWIW, usually tegra bootloader fills in kernel cmdline rather than hardcoding it in boot.img )

4096Bytes are missing. Maybe the bootloader+PartitionTable at first bytes of Nand :)
Did anyone of you try if there is an bootloader-mode(the usual key-combinations)?

Partition sizes
Could you/someone please post a df to see the size of each partition, I wonder how much of the 8GB are available and how much is for /data.
Thanks!

Is there any way to creat a extra partition or at least to change the size?

I don't believe so or someone would have done it already.

Cool - these are btw mostly generic tegra names, while most are probably obvious I've "translated" them below.
APP -> system
CAC -> cache
LNX -> boot.img
MDA -> Unknown
MSC -> Misc (bootloader commands and other misc stuff )
PER -> usually a fat partition containing sensor calibration etc. - per device provisioned.
SOS -> recovery.img
UDA -> /data - "user data area"

Seems they just stuck RDO (radio) in the middle at p4 so everything else just shifts down, and up a p#.

Also worth mentioning for both N7 variants (and apparently Tegras in general), mmcblk0boot0 and mmbblk0boot1 are continuous and contain 3 partitions: BCT, PT and the start of the bootloader. BCT takes up all of boot0 and the beginning of boot1. They are encrypted and boot0 is where lockstate is stored. For more info check out my BootUnlocker Script thread.
Credits to lilstevie for that information.

USP is only staging Area for bootloader flashes not the bootloader itself...
Is the per partition on all N7 the same or are there differences from device to device, so that I can´t use the per partion of another N7?

Added to "useful links" section of FAQ, to void any dig up when it will be buried by other threads

/system is 999424 blocks, and /cache is 678016 blocks
Why such big partitions are allocated for these? It feels quite wasting.
How is the free space on /system? I hardly can believe that all of that 1G space is really needed.
(I'm contemplating buying a Moto G. First I thought that the 8G version will be enough. But after seeing the partition layout, it seems that I'll need the 16G.
Now I have an SGS I9000 8G, but curiously it does have more storage than the Moto G.
Moto G: 5.52G for all data.
SGS: 1.89G + 5.78G = 7.67G combined)

There is currently like 370MB free in system. But that's not too bad, gives room to play when updates arrive...

Can someone post the layout and sizes of a GPE device? I compared the gpt.bin file from the UK retail firmware package with the one from the GPE pack and there are some differences in the partition order and I want to check the sizes and starting/ending blocks as well.
It would be nice to find a way to repartition the Moto G as there is a lot of space wasted inside...

GPE firmware image flashed on UK XT1032. Should be the same as retail GPE?

It's a joke. Because of their accent in Canada they say aboot in stead of about. I never heard any Canadian, but this was once in a southpark episode. So this must be true

Is there any way to repartition?

Bump
I also would like to know if this is possible..?
It would be awesome if it is

There are many threads on XDA dedicated to the subject of repartitioning. Those that try, should post here what happens when applying those guides to Moto G.

I'd also be interested in reading about repartitioning the Moto G.

With other devices, a custom Recovery is often required to accommodate the new partition table / layout. Here is one exception that recently got coverage:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55743100&postcount=5584
It's for a Motorola phone, so already a good start and only requires the flashing of two zips.
UPDATE: On closer inspection, this method appears to depend on a custom bootstrap and special kernel.

editing partition size
Has anyone changed their partition size? I would be very interested in reclaiming at least some of that excess space.

Using DD to produce an image results in empty image

I am trying to take an image of my Android phone. Specifically I have tried to image the system and boot partitions. The imaging process appears to work correctly when using dd. However, when I attempt to mount the image in a loopback device the image appears to be empty. I also tried to see file contents by piping through cpio. Basically, I am trying to validate the image that I took. What am I doing wrong? Is there a problem with how I took the image or validation or both? Here are the steps to took (you'll see only the system partition below but I used the same process for boot)

Just found my answer, I should not have done a mkfs (thus formatting/wiping my data in the image)

Do... what, now?
Would you be so kind as to walk me through what you did here? with
red comments/ descriptions?
and
[green command inputs
Or something like that?

[INFO] How To Get Partition Details Of Android With ADB

Sometime you need to build some mod or own custom ROM for a new device or the device which don't have much development on it.On these situations to flash any partition to the device we need to know it's actual block,size,path,user privilage.
This can typically done by a Root explorer or via ADB shell.
In this comprehensive info guide I will focous on getting partition details via ADB shell.
Let's Dive In:-
REQUIREMENTS
1. UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER.
2. SUPERSU/MAGISK FOR ROOT ACCESS.
3. ADB INSTALLED PROPERLY IN PC.
4. RESPECTIVE DEVICE DRIVERS. (e.g. for moto g5 plus,which i have,need motorola usb drivers to be installed.)
PROCEDURE
1. Using df lists the filesystem path alias and size info as seen below (total size, used, free and block size).
Example :
Code:
[email protected]:/ # df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 1714040 3732 1710308 1% /
tmpfs 1819500 712 1818788 1% /dev
/dev/block/mmcblk0p53 3320680 1882092 1438588 57% /system
tmpfs 1819500 0 1819500 0% /mnt
/data/media 25782252 3489280 22292972 14% /mnt/runtime/default/emulated
/dev/block/vold/public:179_65 15640832 11533440 4107392 74% /mnt/media_rw/79D8-1EE2
/mnt/media_rw/79D8-1EE2 15640832 11533440 4107392 74% /mnt/runtime/default/79D8-1EE2

/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 96688 69552 27136 72% /firmware

/dev/block/mmcblk0p30 28144 520 27624 2% /persist
/dev/block/loop0 92656 996 91660 2% /su
2. Using cat /proc/mounts shows the partition file path, the alias, the filesystem type, the startnig inode, the number of blocks, read/write status (and other parameters of the individual partition that I'm not entirely sure of).
Example:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # cat /proc/mounts

179 65 15644672 mmcblk1p1
Here comes a tricky part,
This folder in which by-name output is stored varies from devices to devices.
I will write the procedure to find this thing out.
Note : Here I am using MOTO G5 PLUS [POTTER] for demonstration.
As I change directory to /dev/block/bootdevice/ & ls to see the files & folders in this folder , i found that by-name folder which i was looking for.
Example:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # cd /dev/block/bootdevice/
[email protected]:/dev/block/bootdevice # ls -a -l

4. So for a particular device you can use ls -al /dev/block/platform/Your_Folder_Name/by-name to see the mapping between the partition alias and the path of actual partition file with owner & user.
Example:
Code:
[email protected]:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name # ls - a -l /dev/block/bootdevice/b
ls: -: No such file or directory
ls: a: No such file or directory

Now you must understand that before flashing anything do check the script of that file & make sure it is flashing to the right partition (mmcblk0xxx) according to your device.
IF your are happy & it helped you do hit the THANKS button. It always motivates when someone appreciate your work.

Big thanks
Thank you very much! That really helped!

I have a Tissot (mi a1) with TWRP dual booted by separating vendor_a, vendor_b, userdata_a, userdata_b. It is dual booted by cosmicdan's twrp with Resurrection remix ( slot_a) official and Dotos official ( slot_b). I want to mount userdata_b in resurrection remix or vice verse.
I have already tried these steps but no result.
1. create a folder named 'data2' in " /data/local/tmp/data2" .
2. open terminal.
3. run su.
4. Enter " mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p52 /data/local/tmp/data2" (as 52 is my userdata_b partition).
5. no error showing but nothing mounted.
Is there any way to mount this?

managed to repair imei on Sawshark (LEO-DLXX)

Hi,
Just wanted to share that I was able to repair the imei on a Huawei Watch 2 (Sawshark,LEO-DLXX).
It goes on just as any other snapdragon imei repair. There are many tutorials out there.
The step I was stuck at was opening a diag port on the watch after issuing this command as root.
Code:
setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb
The usb device does change, but not recognized even though Qualcomm drivers are installed.
The solution? Manually load this driver named:
Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9404
Some tutorials say some partitions need to be cleared for imei repair to work. Not sure if this is necessary, but these are the partitions that need clearing.
Code:
ls -al /dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/ <
