[REQ] Nexus 4 16G partition table dump

I would really appreciate if someone with 16G Nexus 4 can make a primary partition table dump.
It is only 17KB in size and has no personal information and is same on all 16G devices.
Device has to be rooted and root for adb should be enabled in dev options or it can be booted into cwm
Code:
adb shell
su (skip this test if booted into cwm)
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/pgpt.img bs=512 count=34
exit
exit (skip this step if booted into cwm)
adb pull /sdcard/pgpt.img
Please post pgpt.img or send a PM to me.
Thanks!

Good luck with getting the full 16GB on the LOG to N4 conversion

Thanks! Yep, you nailed it, I'm converted (my phone, to be precise)
Can I ask another favor to make a dump of more partitions? I want to make sure they do not differ from 8G version.
Code:
...
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl1 of=/sdcard/sbl1.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl2 of=/sdcard/sbl2.img

[Q] Loki flash??

ok here's the lowdown.
Verizon lg g2
rooted = yes
downloaded or a update in December = yes
installed twrp using the freegee app in the app market. not sure if their method implies the Loki boot loader bypass.
my question is is their a way to imply Loki bypass no. twrp does work but I can't successfully flash any roms and I believe it's the lack of Loki being implemented.

Here's loki patched twrp and loki patched boot
extract and flash

Still kinda new to the whole flash game.. I'm using flashify and it has three flash options
boot image
recovery image
and zip file..
which option do I use to flash.
sorry if the question seems obscene.

Those are great questions..
I am having a issue close to yours..
I am going to use the boot as boot and the recovery as recovery.

Looks like adb to me.

i read a post were someone said you could change .lok to ,img and use flashify, you could give it a shot, they said it the same thing

Try renaming boot.lok to boot.img and twrp.lok to twrp.img and using flashify. If you still can't get it to work let me know

12B?
If yes, you're out of luck.
If no, what datechnerd said.

I patched twrp for 12b I also patched cwm for 12b

@datechnerd I just saw that. Nice. I used the flashify method for CWM ( loki version) on 11A, loki errors. Never got around to pushing loki. Is your CWM pre loki and flashable after extraction? Thinking about flashing and doing the OTA dirty flash of 12B.

enable usb debugging, plug phone into pc, and you'll need adb in attachments
open the folder you extracted adb to, shift right click in the folder, open command window here, then follow the example in the previous post

[LOCKED BL] Fix: No Service or Emergency Calls Only

finally i figured a way to fix this issue. it worked for my locked H818P, hope it helps everyone
you need root for it.
here are the steps:
1. setup adb
2. enable USB Debugging
3. connect your phone to the PC and open an adb command window
4. execute these commands
Code:
adb shell
Code:
su
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst1
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst2
Code:
reboot

I really thank you very very much. I have found the way to fix this problem more than a week. Finally found this post. Current Im very happy because my phone is working, It has signaled. Once again I would like to thank you very very much. Good luck to you.

How do you enter su mode. For me it is denied despite phone being rooted and running adbd app on phone to supposedly allow the su mode.

Rooting LG V20 H990DS?

Been reading this guide here --» https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/dirtysanta-h990-t3624296
despite much of a mess that it is and poorly written in some regards. I can make perfectly good sense of it all, but the commands issued most of them are pretty useless, or don't work as they're instructed to do.
Let me point out some stuff here, cuz I'm trying to work my way through the tutorial to root my LG V20 H990DS (International) btw;
ok so the first part here it explains the following;
6. Using dirtysanta's steps: Run "RUNMEFIRST.bat" <-- Do not close.
7. Run "step1.bat" <-- Wait until you can type something again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in my case here I'm using Linux, not Windows to do this, so things are simpler, the RUNMEFIRST.sh executable literally does nothing, when I can see it clearly is suppose to do something, let's take a look at what that files trying to run;
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# runmefirst.sh
#
#
# Created by me2151 on 12/13/16.
#
adb logcat | grep -a dirtysanta
OK, so it's using logcat to see what the phone is doing while piping to grep to watch out for dirtysanta being written to the phone while you have step1.sh running in another terminal instance, when that command completes you're left in ADB Shell of your device. Meanwhile the first shell script doesn't report anything going on, OK that's fine, doesn't matter since it wrote the contents of the required files to the phone, so it's there, as it should and as it's described in the shell script;
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# Step1.sh
#
#
# Created by me2151 on 12/11/16.
#
adb push dirtysanta /storage/emulated/0
adb push aboot.img /storage/emulated/0
adb push dirtycow /data/local/tmp
adb push my-run-as /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/*
adb shell /data/local/tmp/dirtycow /system/bin/run-as /data/local/tmp/my-run-as
adb shell /data/local/tmp/dirtycow /system/bin/applypatch /data/local/tmp/dirtycow
adb shell
Now this next part, doesn't work at all, because in the tutorial guide, they said to do chmod 777 permissions on "/storage/emulated/0/*" this doesn't work because operation is not permitted by the file owner and group root, there is no write permission to change permissions of that directory structure.
Code:
chmod: chmod '/storage/emulated/0/Android' to 40777: Operation not permitted
and yes /storage/emulated/0/ is suppose to be your storage userspace of where you save your files and stuff. Your "virtualized" SD Card space, you have normal read-write access there anyways. The next part of that tutorial says to check the id output from the Terminal Emulator app on Android, and check for the response "untrusted_app", that I do get, if you're doing it through ADB Shell you'll get "context=u:r:shell:s0" instead.
Part 12 of the tutorial has misuse or incorrect command line usage for applypatch, it will not simply execute because the command line usage is incorrect like so;
Code:
applypatch /system/bin/atd /storage/emulated/0/dirtysanta
it'll just simply return the following;
Code:
usage: applypatch [-b <bonus-file>] <src-file> <tgt-file> <tgt-sha1> <tgt-size> [<src-sha1>:<patch> ...]
or applypatch -c <file> [<sha1> ...]
or applypatch -s <bytes>
or applypatch -l
Filenames may be of the form
MTD:<partition>:<len_1>:<sha1_1>:<len_2>:<sha1_2>:...
to specify reading from or writing to an MTD partition.
obviously the step2 shell script can't do anything because there is nothing to backup, since it's calling to backup the boot images off the device.
