just a thought - TG01 ROM Development

hi all,
just a thought.
and if its dumb then please say so lol
i understand development has stuck with getting roms onto the phone, we can encrypt and decrypt tsw's i think, but cant load them.
could we just replace the file in the official download and copy over the certificates or tell the certificates to look somewhere else for the relelvant version info?
it would require stripping out the official tsw, not sure how thats going tbh, and replacing it with our bits and bobs. copying over the certificates and modifying there dependacies or something
??? any thoughts ???

another thought
and I have another question, if we have the Bin file why we cant' load it throught the pin shorctcut method ?

the bin file it's not the tsw file. While i really dont know if the bin file may be loaded with the pin method...

im not familiar with the pin shorten method but i assume the boot rom/boot loader looks for a specific file extension (.tsw) not a .bin, you cant rename it .bin as compression and packing is different to each format, so it wouldnt work.
its down to the sddl+ to allow the file to be written and the phone to accept it without questioning where its from (official or not)
people out there can hack into goverment secrets ina blink of an eye, yet no one can beat toshibas back to front programming
just a rant....for now

I'm sure, the shortcut method will load not encrypted files with .bin extension as well as excypte with .tsw and .enc. extension.

.bin .tsw .enc all one after another close to

Don't Remove the SD Card & the Battery. Downloading ...
just search in .bin

[Q] XTC S-off file share please!!!

Hi
Can an XTC clip owner/user please share PC49DIAG.img, PC49Diag.nb0, PC49IMG.nb0. I have searched high and low for these but cannot find them, nor how to create them. Also a hex image of sdcard may be useful. Could be large upload consider using a torrent.
Thanks in advance
and
what's the point in having these files??
i mean , why do you want them?
sorry 4 my english
Here you have PC49DIAG.zip --> http://download.hellshare.com/pc49diag-zip/2375740/ i think that this zip contains that 3 files you want... im downloading now
sorry fail... inside that zip there are these files
android-info
boot.img
radio.img
rcdata.img
recovery.img
splash1.nb0
system.img
userdata.img
Yeah, I have found pc49diag as you have, but I don't think its genuine, its just a renamed ROM. Isn't PC49DIAG an unlocking program? Can it help with root? Although it may be phone specific, is it linked to CID or IMEI or something?
If it is can it be spoofed or are these files useless to me?
Still want to see them even if they are, out of curiosity?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
You need the device to S-OFF, The files are just to move the phone into Diagmode from HBOOT.
However you need the XTC device in order to remove security.(It connects to the sim slot)

Ok u r working on froyo root. Thats great.
I don't know about the use of those files, but i think they should not have any role in rooting / unlocking. Because wildfire doesnt have the fastboot flash rooting support.
And about pc49img.zip (not the one u asked), it is just a zip file to be recognised by wildfire fastboot menu. It encloses custom files for updating wildfire different things as per the users need. (hboot, radio, recovery). Also flashes custom recovery in s-off devices.
U need to tell the purpose while asking those above files, otherwise u will be more likely getting roms, radios, recoveries..... what u meant by "genuine file" is the purpose there.
[correct me if im wrong]. OK GOOD LUCK FOR THE ROOT.
Look for "Skye's Full XTC Clip Rooting/CROM guid" topic @ the development section, 2nd post.

[Q] Is it possible to build a fake update.zip file

I am posting here since I have not posted enough to do so in the original post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1077321
But would it be possible to create a Fake update.zip file, IF B&N is realy locking down the SD Boot option?
At the very least maybe there is a way to create an update.zip that install the needed files for ADB/ADB WiFi to work... Just a thought. I only dable a bit in coding myself or I would look into it, but this stuff is far beyond me.

Its not working because you have a radio.img file, you can only flash .img files with fastboot,
You need to download the zip files I made in my radio thread Here and rename the files in my thread. Read the instructions in the OP.

The decrypter tool has been the same for a long time. The keys haven't changed. $12. And has worked till a couple of weeks ago.
Depends on what you are decrypting. If it's the files we have here in the Dev forum, it works.
If you try it on files elsewhere, it may not work. It probably will not work on A51x or 70x update files. Nobody has tried.
Definately won't work on Asus updates

Absolutely nothing wrong with the decrypter. You have to wait a few minutes depending on PC. Has to decrypt 400mb remember.

Hi,
Sorry for the newbie question.
I cannot run the tool. Here is what I do:
Using PC window 7 to download the zip file.
Unzip it.
Have an exe file but get an error message when run it. (Window can not find the path ...)​
Can you please explain how to use this decrypt tool ? or tell me what kind of error I did ?
Thanks a lot for your help,

Sounds like you're trying to run it from within the zip file itself? Helps to know the full error message.
Try unzipping it to your C:\ drive. Then run it again.
It's a small app, and basically you will get a button to select the file (zips only), then select Start. After a couple minutes, it will write the decrypted file in the same folder as the original (says decrypted at the end of the file name).

Thanks a lot for your quick help.
This is a fault of may anti virus that prevents to run the tool.
Just turn it off and I can run the tool.
Thank you,

Antivirus block download
Hi!
I'm trying to download the tool to decrypt the zip files but my antivirus (a business version of Trend Micro that i can't disable) block the download.
Is it possible to rename or change the extension to avoid this issue?
thank you
no solutions?

Hi!
I would like to create a boot animation that uses the basic J5 bootloop.
I would need you to convert the .qmg to .png and send to me. It's very simple with this app created by @xperiacle (Original thread). I would do it myself but the ROM used to convert the file must be either stock or stockish to work and I would lose so many settings, tweaks etc. by flashing stock and then back. As a reward I would of course hit the thanks button, send you the animation (if you please) and honor you as my savior for life! :angel: Also if you have an idea or reasonable preference(s) for the boot animation, I will make it happen.
Anyways here are the instructions stolen from the original thread (don't kill me xperiacle!):
"So just download the app(Qmg2Png), install, and pick an apk(Extract_this.apk) from sdcard and the app will extract the qmg resources and convert them to png format and saving them in the QMg2Png folder in the sdcard. The output folder retains the folder structure of the extracted apk."
Thank you in advance! Peace! :good:

If you want the stock boot animation then download the relevant firmware and pull it out of the system.img.
Please don't ask me to guide you how as there are plenty already out there.

It's in the .qmg format. There is no other way to extract it that I know of. Bootanimation.zip? No problem. Qmg? Pain in the ass.
Edit: just to be clear the stock rom uses an encoding/decoding method for qmg files that don't exist in custom roms nor is it used by any other than samsung phones. But anyhow it is not the end of the world for me if I don't get it extracted. Then I just focus on some other ideas for animations.

It's in the stock system image. All you need do is extract it.
@ashyx You just don't get it.. I have already extracted it from the system img. I need to convert the qmg to png files to edit it. Read my posts more carefully to understand.

OK let me ask you this?
What is preventing yourself from making a backup of your device with twrp which literally takes minutes, install the rom you require, do what you need and then simply restore?
@ashyx You are right but I don't want to flash any rom since when I do, I get this weird issue with my screen; I am unable to turn it off and it seems to be a matter of luck to get it working again. Thank you anyways! https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/help/screen-help-t3585090
