Downgrade HELP

Hi,
I've a big problem, my friend upgrade his SGS to the official 2.2 BUJP8, i try to use adb reboot recovery to flash the bootloader, to unlock 3button combo, but it doesn't go into. It reboot.
I've intall kies, close all processus, use latest busybox from Titanium backup, USB debuging on, and use the default Home (touchwiz).
But no way it doesn't work.
Naturally recovery doesn't work (unable to flash unsigned zip). I try to use clockwork recovery from rom manager but it seems to be unsigned too. So i don't know what i should do.
#
# Edit
#
Copying a file using the Root Explorer
# unzip and put archive contents in a folder called recovery2e on /sdcard/
# first mount -o remount,rw /system (important options in Root Explorer for do this)
# file recovery copy to /system/bin (and replace)
# xbi folder contents copy to /system/xbin/ (and replace)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But doesn't work,
So i try with the cable method
Method by captive thanks buddy
# put archive contents in a folder called recovery2e on /sdcard/
# open a shell and get root (ADB or Terminal on Phone, type su and pres enter / accept )
# remount /system rw (busybox mount -o remount,rw /system)
# rename recovery in /system/bin to recovery3e (for backup purposes)
# copy "recovery" from /sdcard/recovery2e/ to /system/bin/ (cp /sdcard/recovery2e/recovery /system/bin/)
# copy the folder /sdcard/recovery2e/xbin/recovery to /system/xbin/ (cp -rr /sdcard/recovery2e/xbin/recovery /system/xbin/)
# enjoy!

But adb doesn't want to remount /sytem
Remount failed: No such file or directory
Drivers are installed, and when adb devices it show my phone, it is in usb debuging.

deodex file

Hi guys
I'd manage to manually deodex the app and framework file from my stock rom. The problem are I can't push them either thru adb nor update.zip. Been googling around but can't really get a correct adb command for sgs. I need to push these files so that I can install themes. Anybody who can guide please help. Thanks in advance.

You need super user permission to push things into read only memory. So you would need to go through adb shell, mount whatever folder framework is in to readable, etc.

Hi snapper.fishes
By the way, I got superuser permission. The only problem I don't know the correct command for the adb shell - su - mount etc, etc....
This are the command I got from Droid forum but it does not work for SGS I guest.
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot
Anybody got any idea?

Try this:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system
reboot

Thanks for the tips g00ndu. If I push those deodex file, they will overide and delete all the odex file right? Should I disable the universal lagfix first and is it safe pushing deodex file this way?

I say remove the lagfix first. It's not necessary, but if you do screw up your phone you are going to have to reflash your phone, and the last thing you want to do is to flash your phone with lagfix on.

It's been a long time since I pushed files this way. Right now I'm using update zips and flash it via ulfk. Reason: it is much more simpler and more effective. If I remember correctly, your apk files need to be deleted too before you can push your deodexed apks and jars files to the system folder if you do it via adb.
Besides, I would not advocate this method of pushing through adb, bcos, there is always chances that your /system, /data partitions may result in data corruption.
Try using update zip.

Thanks for your reply g00ndu. I've already try that. But after the zip file updated nothing happen. Maybe the zip creator that I use is not compatible with sgs. Can you kindly link to the correct source for sgs. Or maybe you can post the file and tutorial here so that we can learn the correct method from you. Thank you so much for that.

Hey angiogram... I'm not sure if this thread still has a pulse, but I came across this thread and feel confident I can offer you some great information.
g00udu was on the right track, only one small detail I would add is reverting the permissions back to the system files once returned to the system directory.
See this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990238
for an extremely detailed step by step how to perform this process from beginning to end.
If this issue has been resolved, keep it for future reference or pass it on to someone who you believe it may help.
Peace-

Thanks Liv33vil.

Manually Deodex Any S5830 Rom !!!

After i succesfull deodex my stock rom i've decided to share my experience with ya'll people ...
Here we go :
1. You must be rooted !!!
2. Download -> xUltimate
3. Unzip xUltimate v2.2, and launch "Main.exe"
4. Now xUltimate should recognize the phone and make a connection. You now should see a list of options.
5. Run option 1. After option 1 is done, run option 2.
6. Now these well take a while. Run option 3
7. IMPORTANT: After you have run option 3, you MUST navigate to the xUltimate folder and find "origi_frame" folder, and delete "guava.odex". It's a bad file, and interferes with deodexing process.
8. Now run option 4, and wait.
9. Exit xUltimate, and put the phone in USB mass storage then copy "done_frame", and "done_app" to the root of the sdcard then put the phone in PC mode.
10. Open a command prompt, and do the following:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
busybox cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot
After phone is boot, reboot again in CWM and Wipe Dalvin Cache, reboot and ENJOY !!!
Notice : The boot will take a little bit longer than normal (2-4 seconds +)
P.S. For step 7 ... there is no guava.odex, don't worry about, continue to next step !

You must have adb (by installing android sdk, platform-tools, install usb driver too) and jdk to do this if anyone is wondering.

Well the title says manually deodex. But this uses the tool. To manually do it you need to decompile each app individually and then edit it.
Btw, nice giude..

ERROR!
Tried this on my stock ddkq8 gingerbread 2.3.6 rom. But whenever I run this line: busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
it says cp: No space left on device.
and my phone bricks.
It seems that the command does not overwrite the files in /system/app and thus the error.
BTW what do you mean by pc mode?
PLS reply!

[MOD] [LG P500] CRT Screen Off for Optimus One

Hello All.
Here are the framework-res.apk and build.prop files for the Optimus One, Stock 2.3.3 firmware. All you need to do is replace those files and you will get the CRT ScreenOff effect
I used the post by Skynet28, modified a little to only use adb commands.
This was the first thing done after rooting the phone.
-NEEDED:
Rooted phone
.7Z file View attachment 949259
5 Minutes of your time
NOTE: YOU WILL MOST PROBABLY LOOSE YOUR PHONEBOOK, I DID WHILE DOING ALL THIS. PLEASE BACK THAT UP.
The procedure to install is as follows:
You must set the /system on the phone with RW permision
From a Command Prompt:
First we locate where /system is mounted
Code:
adb shell
su
cat /proc/mounts
Locate /system in the mount and write down the mountpoint (mtdblock1 or similar)
the type
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/[I][COLOR="Purple"]MOUNTPOINT[/COLOR][/I] /system
exit
exit
Then we push both files to the phone with the folowing adb command
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push build.prop /system
Finally we chmod those 2 files
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /system/framework
chmod 664 framework-res.apk
cd /system
chmod 664 build.prop
exit
exit

There was a misunderstanding. I've already done. I could not put them in the phone.

In the guide:
Now there are 2 ways to install deodex files in device
If you take step 1, you need to startup your phone, make sure you are in developers mode, connect your phone with the usb cable to the computer and then do these commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/

I have not tried is myself. I only wanted to help you out how you could do it.
adb is way to communicate between your phone and your computer. download the files here : https://mega.nz/#!pBFBTLoI!jZY2Wdh6VlHF9Cx8nhawlX4CDPJXT1KWwIbZ-3PN4GM
On your phone:
Then you need to put your phone in developers mode, push 10 times on buildnumber in about the phone.
Then select USB-error in the options for developers in settings menu.
On your computer
Then you need to how to a command prompt, cmd to the extracted directory. Put in you usb cable in your phone and computer. And execute the commands above if the files are in the correct directory on your sd card.

Well it didnot work on B180 version i have tried many times

You have to keep your previous system, factory reset only, and push the 3 folder in a zip with a script to flash it by twrp, easy and quick
But without fix and keep few system app odex, the flash work but not the system after the boot, it's why the link of the deodex was down, because don't works. Also just deodex it's really easy but the job don't stop here, for working you have to fix many things and also have the knowledge for that.
(system app need to be fix, framework too and many more)
Just deodex is not useful
And deodex the beta firmware is not more useful, really better to works on official version and wait the official marshmallows
A really good knowledge is necessary for fixing the firmware. Deodex can be make by anybody with the automatic tool's
Personally I appreciate more working on a custom kernel for the p8 lite. Because we can have the sources
