[URGENT REQUEST] i9300i USERS it will just take few minutes of your time

hi guys
as you all know that some of the devices (i9300i) are hard bricked by flashing indian 4.4.4 so to unbrick we need a debrick.img which you guys can help us get by flashing this file https://copy.com/1ggUuyIqHUrF it will create a debrick.img into your sd card which you can upload and share
source http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2439367
OR
Use this procedure to create the image
Enable USB Debugging.
Open cmd and navigate to your adb folder.
Run adb shell
Now type 'SU' to enable superuser, your may have to grant access to ADB from a popup screen of your phone's superuser app
next copy and paste the following code and change the phone model to your phone i.e. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/debrickI710-16GB.img bs=1M count=128
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/debrick[phonemodel-memorysize].img bs=1M count=128
6. Now type Exit on cmd and then use following the command to copy this image to your adb folder
adb pull /sdcard/debrick[phonemodel-memorysize].img
7. upload the image and share its link here.
[B]It will just take few minutes further you can compress the file (zip or rar) to reduce its size so that it can be upload easily.[/B]
Thanks in advance

thank u soooo much bro i just successfully un brick my device tomorrow i will make a thread again thanks for ur time and million thanks to u :laugh:

Hi, I've used your CWM script but it doesn't have created the ZIP file with the debrick image.
I've searched it on all memories (also the system folder) but nothing. I've a GTI9301I ITV Firmware UANI1
I've tried also the adb shell and when i type adb pull /sdcard/debrick[phonemodel-memorysize].img it show me no devices (but it's enabled and the phone receive correctly commands)

root for 306SH

So I'll update randomly...
boot.img and recovery.img -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5QYBzdG6RuyZy1TSHc2VDVhY2M/view?usp=sharing
temp root:
Code:
adb push root /data/local/tmp
adb push wpoff /data/local/tmp
adb push fbunlock /data/local/tmp
adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp
adb push boot.img /data/local/tmp
adb shell
$ [COLOR="Red"]chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/root[/COLOR]
$ [COLOR="Red"]chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/wpoff[/COLOR]
$ [COLOR="Red"]chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/fbunlock[/COLOR]
$ /data/local/tmp/root
...
#
defeat WP:
Code:
# /data/local/tmp/wpoff --unprotect-all
check WP status(optional):
Code:
# /data/local/tmp/wpoff --dump
If you see it's all zeroes there it means good, or if there are many 5555 it means NG.
unlock bootloader:
Code:
# /data/local/tmp/fbunlock
install TWRP and patched boot:
Code:
# dd if=/data/local/tmp/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
# dd if=/data/local/tmp/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot
install SuperSU:
Code:
FLASH SUPERSU LIKE OLD DAYS
Why patch boot?
Cos MIYABI stops ptrace, some apps depends on it won't work properly.

Hi tewilove, many thanks for publishing this. Amazing work! And a big time saver

tewilove tnx allot !!
hey some one know how can i put su inside in system and then to use SuperSU ?

thank you a lot

thanks but i can not use root app and super su can not install bin su
thank you for your help

tewilove said:
Tested with a 306SH with SW version S4081.
How to:
https://youtu.be/UJs7ruckGgc
This is v1, since the shell code has to be improved yet(WIP).
It only obtains temp root with kernel context. The left things are changing to init context, disable mmc_protect_part, disable miyabi LSM.
There might be v2, which solves all above, if I have time.
And it also works with many other devices.
For example, 305SH, MI4C, SH-01G.
If it keeps crashing, it should be my hard coded offsets.

yes we know about this .. i try to remount system ( with this command : busybox mount -o remount,rw /system) to get permission but my device is restart when i try .. maybe its from this write protection that @tewilove tell us .. if he can tell us how we can install su in system if its possible for now .. ?

ok so for the moment is useless ?

yea?rootxplore and xposed said no root?

I don't think that folks are understanding what "temp" root means. This solution allows you to achieve root for the current shell session. This does not install the additional binaries to allow other applications to use root access.
With that being said, I am wondering if we can use this temporary elevated access to correct the vulnerability outlined in CVE-2015-1474 affecting /system/lib/libui.so that Sharp has neglected to address in previous OTA updates. The only "corrected" libui.so that I have been able to locate was compiled for v5.0.1 so I am afraid that file would not be compatible with this earlier version of Android on the 306SH. I am not really savvy with in depth programming to be able to fully investigate this and develop a viable solution... anyone who would be able to point me in the right direction would receive many thanks. :banghead:
My apologies if this should have been posted in a separate thread.

awesom! it worked in my 306sh with root permission acquired in shell.

can you use root app and install super su ?

Write protection is keeping us from remounting /system as rw. This prevents us from doing anything that would have any type of impact on the current situation. I want to experiment with attempting to mount partitions with the device powered off... but my device is encrypted so I am unable to access the shell with device off until I perform a factory reset. I am planning on doing that tonight so hopefully I will be able to report back with more information soon.

No. We are working on it though.
On another note, I can't get this temp root to work.

So I assume, from the quoted text, you have tried mounting /system as rw while in the temp root shell session?

Yes. I tried using the mount command both directly from the root shell prompt plus I tried using busybox to mount also. There seem to be slight variations between them. Also, not sure if it is relevant but I attempted it both through adb and in terminal on the device. I can get to the root prompt but not further.

Hi,
Superuser access on Terminal isn't useful for directory listing, as the function is mostly related to system functions.

What exactly do you want to do? And maybe some one can point you in the right direction.

On most devices, the SDCard is either mounted or at least linked to either /mnt/sdcard or /sdcard. However, when the device features both, an internal and external SDCard, the latter usually is to be found "inside" the former, e.g. at /sdcard/external_sd. Alternatively, it may be mounted at /mnt/extSdCard or /storage/extSdCard. Note the capitals. Android filenames are case-sensitive.
I think you just tried the wrong path. You can use a file explorer to easily find the correct path.

Then you are mixing things up because /sdcard is the phone memory.

Why do you want to make it as /sdcard? Your apps will crash because of it. May be I could help you with if you tell about it.

Adoptable Storage

Anybody tried it yet? On a 64 or 128 what exactly did you type for commands?

This goes into detail of the commands.

I am stuck. I opened my adb folder and opened a command prompt there which opened in abd shell, but when I type sm list-disks it tells me sm is not recognizable command. What am I doing wrong?

you actually have to type adb shell. so the command will like this "adb shell sm list-disks" without the quotes.

Thank you, I got it to work by installing adb setup and then opened it and it worked. I just don't like the, way after doing it, my pc wont see the extended space so I can move my sd card backup files back to it.

Can someone please help with this? I'd like to know too. Been looking for a way to do this.
Thanks guyz!

adb procedures
HI, I am new to the forum and may need direction on procedure.
I just followed the instructions on adoptable storage and all of the commands in adb seemed to work. (i.e. adb shell > sm list-disks > sm partition disk179,0 private)
all commands seemed to work however after the last keystroke of "enter" there was no delay and the command prompt moved to the next line and I discovered no change in the memory of the phone with it's sd card. Any ideas?

Can't setup sd card as adoptable storage tried with adb shell and Root essencials

Hello everyone, first thanks for all the help, i'm new in here but the people is awesome:good:
My problem with my J5 Sm-j500m (root with CF-Auto-Root, android 6.0.1, firmware from sammobile ) is this: i have tried to setup my sd card as adoptable storage with two methods and i have failed.
1) Adb shell
i installed android sdk windows and run the comand window with the comands "adb devices"
and i get this:
List of devices attached
5806d690 device
So next, i do: "adb shell sm list-disks adoptable"
and i always get this: CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: cannot locate symbol "_ZN7android14AndroidRuntime5startEPKcRKNS_6VectorINS_7String8EEE" referenced by "app_process"...
i've tried "adb shell sm set-force-adoptable true" and other with the same luck, so no solution here.
2) i download root essencials and i tried without luck, it says "insert sd card" and the sd is already in the phone i tried with other sd and the same happened.
Does Anyone know how to do it? on a J500M? i see this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/how-to/finally-adoptable-storage-j500fmm-t3470225 and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/themes/galaxy-j5-adaptable-storage-6-0-1-t3470020 both options says i have to Flash a zip with TWRP and its done but i don't know how can i do that, because i don't have TWRP. also its not specific to SM-J500M.

Look in the other bit of the forums. Guides - news
There are a couple of new threads on adaptable storage. Not sure if it's your device but worth a look.
