[Dev] Building kernel - XPERIA X8 General

MSM7227 S1Boot has been patched to ignore SIN header signature by the_laser.
You need phone which you either did not unlock by cable, or phone which you unlocked via SEtool2 only.
If you unlocked with Omnius, in C:\ProgramData\Omnius for SE\Backups\Xperia X8
you have file called: Xperia X8_IMEI_DATE_SIMLock.opd
Note, the fixed S1Boot for other tools should come soon.
Restore that TA backup, then use semc.cmd in the_laser's release to unlock bootloader - you'll restore SIM lock this way!
Currently there is no unlocked bootloader for Omnius unlocked phones.
* Kernel build instructions in second post.
* Original post by the_laser with unlock instructions in third post.
What will this allow:
* custom kernels
* better/fully working Gingerbread
* no need for chroot to avoid init crash bug
* overclock/Synaptics fake DT/Cypress real DT/MDDI fix built in kernel
This will not enable:
* real DT on Synaptics digitizer

To make custom kernel:
1) Compile it.
2) Grab Image, not zImage
3) Make ramdisk.gz (cpio ramdisk content, then gzip the cpio archive)
4) Place both files in ./msm7227/sinTools
5) Name then image and ramdisk, no extension, remove existing files
6) Exectue example_build.cmd
7) Grab result.elf.sin from result.zip, rename to kernel.sin and pack in ftf bundle with patched loader.sin from ./msm7227/loader
8) Flash with FlashTool.

Greetings.
warning.
if you are not developer, please quit reading that post.
wait for user friendly tool with one big button.
here ( View attachment msm7227.7z) is toolset to permanently "unlock" semcboot of msm7227 semc phones.
that means, you can use own kernel and so on.
steps,precautions, etc.
unpack archive to any directory.
if you using eset antivirus or similar ****, it will find evil virus in adb.exe.
ignore that, it is not virus in any way, it is standard android debug bridge, bundled in one file to save space and usability.
now, if your phone unlocked officially:
flash phone with standard 2.0,2.1 android firmware,because kernel mapper module compiled for "2.6.29" kernel.
of course, enable "usb debugging"
run msm7227_semc.cmd,
( if you want, examine it before run, it is pretty straightforward. )
you will get similar output
Code:
process requires standard 2.x android firmware.

Second, we need to write semcboot ;)
1130 KB/s (596916 bytes in 0.515s)
successfully wrote 0003ff00
Press any key to continue . . .
bingo, your phone now has unlocked bootloader.
if your phone unlocked by setool2 software, use msm7227_setool2.cmd
if your phone unlocked by 3rd-party software other than setool2, do not run anything -
it will disable radio capability of your phone and you will need to unlock phone by setool2 software.
to find out if you can safely unlock bootloader, here (View attachment s1tool.7z) is tool.
if you will see "NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE", you should not use either of .cmd.
hopefully, mizerable flea and mOxImKo will release something similar for your phone.
okay, now about other details.
1.
unlocked bootloader require unlocked loader, yep ?
loader\loader.sin is special unlocked loader, which will be accepted ONLY after your "unlock" semcboot with previous steps.
to distinguish unlocked semcboot and original semcboot, first letter in version tag of semcboot output will be lower case, i. e. "r8A029"
( same applies for loader version tag )
so, all that stuff with signatures are not for us, so i removed them - loader will ignore signature part of SIN file.
2.
we should make SIN file somehow, right ?
for that i prepared "dumb" bin2sin utility.
Syntax : bin2sin [input] [partition info, 32 digits] [type] [block size]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
[input] - is input binary file.
[partition info]
android implementation on s1 semc qualcomm phones based on partitions,so we MUST define it for our file.
you can get required partition info from standard semc sin files, it is first 0x10 bytes of DATA, right after header, i.e.
e10 kernel partition info
03000000010000402001000040000000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
[type] - partition type, 9 - partition without spare, 0xA - partition with spare.
kernel partition is partition without spare.
if that parameter omitted, type = 9
[block size] - nand block size, if omitted, it is standard size 0x20000
there is example in sinTools\example_build.cmd
3.
kernel should be prepared specially to be accepted by semcboot.
for that there is tool bin2elf.
Syntax : bin2Elf.exe [nbrOfSegments] [EntryPoint] [Segment1] [LoadAddress1] [Attributes1] ...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
we need 2 segments:
segment 1 is unpacked linux kernel image, i.e.
( e10/kernel/arch/arm/boot/Image )
it looks like entrypoint and load address for segment 1 is always same for all msm7227-based semc phone, it is 0x00208000
attributes for image 0x0
segment 2 is ramdisk.
it looks like entrypoint and load address for segment 1 is always same for all msm7227-based semc phone, it is 0x01000000
set attributes for ramdisk 0x80000000, that is extremly important.
there is simple kernel example in sinTools\example_build.cmd
ps.
@blagus:
NAND MPU disabler has only one relation to rFoNe - he took it from setool2, together with entire idea for msm7227 bypass.
your 6-wings friend with many nicks done exactly same.
NAND MPU has nothing to do with memory firewall, so it will not help with kexec things, however, who will care now.
edit:
there was minor flaw in msm7227_setool2.cmd - i forgot to change source bootwriter name and both .cmd wrote same semc boot:
flawed:
@echo Second, we need to write semcboot
bootTools\adb.exe push my7227bootwrite_semcSL /data/local/tmp/my7227bootwrite_setool2SL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
correct:
@echo Second, we need to write semcboot
bootTools\adb.exe push my7227bootwrite_setool2SL /data/local/tmp/my7227bootwrite_setool2SL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
of course, every developer or man with capability to read fixed it immediately.
just in case, i uploaded "fixed" package.

Ok, just because someone is asking what the hell is happened, got a request by Blagus to delete all posts but his first 2 and the_laser one, thread is now closeed untill Blagus will say me to open it.

How to verify if the bootloader on your phone is really unlocked
the_laser (earlier in this thread) said:

This means s1tool log file can provide us with verification if we unlocked bootloader correctly.

If the line RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "#8A029" has a lowercase "r" letter replacing the "#" (RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "r8A029"), your bootloader has been unlocked . If it has an uppercase "R" replacing the "#" (RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "R8A029"), your bootloader is NOT unlocked .
Cheers ,

Im confused !!
are you saying my phone has to have been sim unlocked for this to work because i have not had my x8 sim unlocked and i unlocked my boot loader perfectly fine. and thanks to the devs for all their hard work. now just gotta compile my own kernal

By the way devs, I noticed that bootloader unlocking process puts 4 files in /data/local/tmp (expl, fixPart, mapper_2.6.29.ko and (in my case) my7227bootwrite_semcSL) and executes them.
Is it safe to remove these files? If no, what happens if we remove this files? And what happens if we format our phone's /data partition? Will these files be removed?
Sorry for asking so many questions but these questions are quite important as these pertain to S1Boot and meddling with S1boot can cause hard bricks .

No, android doesn't. I've rebooted my phone 6 times ever since unlocking my bootloader and the files are still there. Please do your research and experiment with what you have read before posting false information , especially because you are a "pro".

mine only got "available_frequencies" in data/local/tmp. i dont see those file you have

@moaj
Now that's very strange. Can you put an empty file in /data/local/tmp, reboot, and then see if the empty file is still there? Post your results here.
@Devs
To reiterate in case you only read the last few posts:

[Q] New Motorola Milestone 2 is not working after 2 days... (can't turn on)

Hi,
I bought Motorola Milestone 2 from UK(probably) two days ago and so far everything was fine. I tested WiFi and other tools and it worked pretty well.
Today, I had some auto-reboots when I was using phone, phone usually stopped during starting... but it backs to normal. Then I was calling to my friend, and decided to "END CALL", but nothing happened (I was unable to close this calling 'menu'). During this other apps works fine (I checked browser), then I decided to TURN OFF the phone.
Now I have problems with turning it on, during start I see motorola's logo, then it blinks for a moment and finally screen turns 80% black (a bit brighter than black one, there is some light ). I can't turn off the phone using top button, I have to pull out the battery. When phone is connected to USB, small white diode is working and I can TURN OFF the phone (but I have still the same problem during start).
I tried removing SIM card, SD card, both of them, I don't have "recovery menu" when I am pressing down X key and turning POWER ON (same things happen) - maybe I am doing something wrong during pressing Xkey and power key(??). I have only ARROW UP + POWER ON bootloader menu.
I spent over 6hours for searching solution - no results so far.
What should I do? THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY SUGGESTIONS.
I logged to motoblur and my software version is 62.2.16.A953.Retail.en.GB.
I dont have a milestone 2, i have the original milestone though, and to fix this id just have to load the screen that comes up when you press the UP button on the dpad (arrow). Then plug your phone to your PC, open RSD lite and once your device has been detected you go ahead and flash a stock SBF file.
Hope that helps

Hi, I am thinking about it, I downloaded 5 different SBF files, but I am not sure which I should use in my motorola. I have it on my moto's box: SM, A953, GB, RETAIL, SLVR so it probably comes from UK.
Which version of RSD Lite should I use? I have RSD Lite 4.9

Are N/A's okay? I do not want to destroy my phone after 2 days ;( (it's my 1st smarhphone)
edit: Well, I loaded the last SBF file and click START in RSD lite... - everythin was fine there but nothing happened with my phone, still the same problem. Any suggestions?
BTW. What will happen if I install another SBF file (german one instead of GB?)

Will occur error halfway. You definitely need to flash the UK SBF rom. Follow below link http://megaupload.com/?d=Q29778GX
If you click the link and find out this message appear (The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.) dun worry, try later. Is totally working. Just fix my unit just now with this UK SBF rom. Mine unit is bought from Clove, UK. Cheers...
Hm, I downloaded this file already from another site & I used it - nothing happened.
I will test this version now.
What is a bit weird, when I plug the phone in socket, I can see battery level animation but still can't turn on the phone, nothing happens after motorola's logo.

Did you do it the right way? Mine unit auto turn on after finish flash the SBF rom. Then finally disconnect the usb cable.
My moto also turn of after finish, but I see only motorola logo and then blank screen again...
Which version of RSD Lite should I use? I have 4.6 now.
Use version 4.9

Seriously though, its a matter of flashing the right SBF the right way. Find out how to get to the Bootloader on the milestone 2. On my milestone 1 all i have to do is keep the DPAD-UP button while turning the phone on.
Once you get there, plug your usb cable to your PC and RSD Lite will detect your phone which will let you flash your SBF file again. Id recommend flashing an UK stock one.
Also, have you installed the proper motorola USB drivers? remember you need to install the appropiate drivers depending on what OS you're using. (ie. Windows 7 x64, theres x64 motorola USB drivers you need to install)
I can imagine how sad you might be right now (after reading your comment on your youtube vid) but really, in my opinion, your phone is anything but permanently bricked
Let me know how that goes.
Good luck
To start Milestone2 into bootloader mode you should turn the phone on while holding the Volume Down and Camera buttons together.

Wow, it's second method I think. I used KPAD+UP + POWER and it is also working.
Do you know another method to open RECOVERY MENU (originally X+POWER ON)?
Can someone tell me is this information about device in RSD LITE is good? (my previous post, bolded part)

I have exam session right now and I am not thinking about this phone
I think also it is bricked, but there is still a hope!
If nothing new happen during few days (no new ideas) I will send it to repair-service ( I've just received bill from my seller ).
You've got to that RSDLite screen, seems like the program is detecting your phone ok. Go ahead and flash the UK ROM and see how it goes.
I flashed it several times before! When it reboot whole system, I see moto logo and then the same problem - nothing after... :\
Can anyone test something for me with milestone2?
Switch off the phone.
Hold X + POWER ON during the whole test (do not release keys!)
Will it stay on Motorola logo (when you release key it will open RECOVERY SCREEN)?
MY SELLER SAID THAT MY PHONE COMES FROM GERMANY (MOTOROLA'S SHOP FOR EMPLOYERS) BUT IT IS WITH ENGLISH SOFTWARE (and it obviously was). SHould I use another SBF file than GB?

You can use any EU software as long as the bands are compatible. German, GB, EU etc., etc.
I have a similar problem and I'm trying to flash a new SBF, but after flashing I get a checksum error and cant get it to work...
I've activated log, and this is what I get:

How to get 1GB+ Internal Memory and SWAP
Notes
Before starting back-up your SD-Card because it's content will be erased in process
After following the tutorial you will have big internal to install apps and you will not have to move them manually to SD-Card
Also you will have SWAP which is a + to RAM and make your device faster
Requirements
A rooted device
A Class 6 or above SD-Card (Class 4 is also good but not recommended)
A kernel/custom ROM with EXT3/4 and SWAP support (most have those features)
Terminal Emulator and Swapper2 installed on your phone.Both are free on Google Play
Step-by-step
Connect your X8 to PC and format SD-Card
Now disconnect it and reboot into CWM
From CWM go into Advanced and select Partition SD-Card
Here you can select what values you wish but I recommend you the following:
-EXT size 1GB
-SWAP size 256MB
Wait until it finishes.It will take a while.
After the process is done press back key to get back to first CWM menu
From here select Wipe Cache
After it finishes reboot
Now open Terminal Emulator
Type in the following
Code:
su (Press ENTER and allow Superuser acces)
a2sd xdata (Press ENTER and you will see some text and an approval to continue)
y
y
Now your phone will reboot
Now open Swapper2
Press menu key and go to Settings>Advanced
Check Use Swap Partition
Turn swap ON
To check if it worked do the following:
*For Internal Memory go to Settings>Storage and scroll down
*For SWAP open Terminal Emulator and type free.
It should look like this:
NOW TO CONNECT YOU PHONE TO PC IN MASS STORAGE MODE YOU NEED TO DISABLE SWAP FROM SWAPPER2 AND ENABLE IT BACK AFTER YOU DISCONNECT

Uh im not too sure but isnt this just a lot of copy paste? And rom recommandations were done by lucastan96 in his big list of roms(tag popular),kernels,other stuff. Also he listed lots of optimisations. He also made a thread on how to improve performance too. So I appreciate what you have done but it has been done before.

Umm this is not copy-paste.I wrote it by myself.Look at time when it was posted and time when edited.
I make recommendations from my own experience like lucastan96 maybe did from his
And work like a high-end device is a metaphor.I know our hardware is limited.
Using this tutorial and Chainfire3D from Google Play I can run Temple Run and Jetpack Joyride very smooth.

Then it never continues. I can wait all day but nothing happens.
Also flashtool does not support my model. What a shame. there are all the xperia e models apart from e4.
May be not yet support, i do not see E21xx on device list,
Try go to androxyde flashtool thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
Or you can try flashing with sony pc companion, or with sony flashtool emma (unlocked devices)
Why, when I try to flash my xperia e4 e2105, it gives me error which says, : (Unable to read from phone after having opened it)?
Try re flash using sony pc companion,
I can't because I had unlocked the boot loader and pcc won't let me. I tried flash to system in fastboot mode and bricked it. It only boots up to sony and reboots. I can't see the reason why it is not letting me flash the files in flash mode. When I create a bundle there is my phone model number but it won't let me flash the ftt. It's like flashtool is not recognize my device. Also when you go to flashtool, devices, manage, cdfID Editor, my model is not listed.
How with emma flashtool?

If you're using Flashtool you don't have to enable debugging. Just push the button to flash ant connect your phone in FLASH MODE when instructions appears. However, if you've unlocked bootloader phone you can fast-boot any rom you desire, just download ROM and use those commands (if you know where to put al files):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash system system.img
and/or other
thanks for answering

Do you have unlocked bootloader? IF yes, why didn't you try to flash ROM via fastboot instead?
Try flashing a newer FTF and uncheck TA partition.
Fastboot is beside the point and not a real flash, FTF is a full flash and should always work no matter what.

I've tried everything through flashmode but it always gets stuck in usb debuggins and unknown sources error.
What I've found is that my device is locked, I've tried to unlock bootload using code sony provided me but it fails to do so:
fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x441733FD90D750CE
...
FAILED (remote: Command did not succeed)
finished. total time: 0.039s

So bootloader is locked, is there any way to unlock it? I have sony xperia z c6603.
Probably corrupted bootloader or partition table, possibly from flashing TA. It happens. If that's the case, I think it's dead.
Don't worry about bootloader, one thing at a time - try to get a stock FTF flashed and working then worry about that later.
But the USB Debugging / Unknown Sources is *not* the error, this is irrelevant for flashmode and fastboot, Flashtool always says that. The real error is "You must have the according fsc script to flash this device". Google for that error for more advice. But as I said, you should try a different FTF. It could be a damaged file or incomplete download.
Also make sure you're running the latest Flashtool and installed the flashmode drivers from it.

Wait, are you using Flashtool 0.9.19.0? I just read that lots of people are having this error. Try older Flashtool version.

Use an older version of flashtool, the newest doesn't support older devices. Use 0.9.18.6 instead
Just said that but anyway...
Seems like a pretty serious bug in Flashtool.

It's not a bug as such. The file that the latest version complains of not being present has to be created by someone that has a Z.
It states fairly clearly that the Z isn't supported on the Flashtool downloads page.
This release is valid for ZL,Z1,Z2,Z3,Z3c,Z3+/Z4,Z4Tablet,E4,E4G,M2,M4 at the moment. As far as new fsc are added, more phone will be compatible. I need your help for that. I will add a tuto on how to generate / add new fsc. If your phone is not in this list, stick to the previous release (still online)

If I was at home, then I'd go ahead and create the fsc file, but I'm not and my Z is there.
If anyone else feels like doing it, then there are basic directions here.
Ah ok, so its just a temporary legacy regression and possibly the fsc will be included in later Flashtool versions.

It will be included when someone with a Z creates it and sends it to Androxyde. I'm unable to do this for a few days, so hopefully someone else will do it before then.
