It's not about the Code / Changes I made.
The Problem is un-splitting the Image back into a Boot.img..

dan0zone · March 15th, 2010, 06:19 PM

I kno its not the code , was gonna try it to see if I can do the dump ..

Oh, Sorry about that.
If you have the New Kernel That would be Great!!

Very Cool thanks

This is the New Kernel From the Update Correct?

shawn1224 · March 15th, 2010, 06:28 PM

Great work BH_MAN

fallenturtle · March 15th, 2010, 06:39 PM

Is this a proof in concept or does this bring us something feature/performance wise that we didn't get with your stock ROM?

Thanks again for all your work on the Behold II.

Not to be a Jerk, but did you Read the First Post?

- Full Root Access ( Even with a Stock Rom )
- Adb Push now Working ( No More Cat )
- Secure is now Off
- Try3 is no longer Needed.

P.s.
Working on the Updated Kernel Right now.. So everyone can Use it as well

Sorry, I meant does this bring any new features regarding day to day use of the phone vs hacking and development. I should have lurked and not posted... my apologies.

-Init.rc Edit's
I changed the System Re-mount to rw
You can now adb push Anything to /system or /data

Is this a good idea? I don't know a whole lot about android security, but having this done by default seems like it would be a security risk.

It's been Like this forever now On the G1 / MyTouch 3G / Droid / Cliq / Samsung Moment...

Anyone that has been around and using Cyanogen Mod's are used to this ( Like Myself ).

Trust me, you want this stuff enabled.
When Disabled, it's designed to keep you out of the System / Phone Period!

*edit*
To clear this up a bit.... Only thing that has Full Read - Write Access is you when using adb shell.... Everything is un-changed

tritran18518 · March 15th, 2010, 07:17 PM

how can i install the .tar file above ? ^^!

You need Odin Flasher.

EDTIVA · March 15th, 2010, 07:41 PM

waiting for the new kernel to be slipped in, then will update. thanks for all the work :-)

paul89 · March 15th, 2010, 07:42 PM

so does this help us advance any further in relation to an upgraded OS?
So the tar file above is now the one to use? And it has full root already in it, all you have to do is flash it from odin? If so then wow BH_MAN I'm impressed!

I might pee my pants if this kernel edit is what we need to run galaxy 2.1 from GAOSP!

I was thinking when I get time to pull the Galaxy Kernel & placing into the Ramdisk & re-package it. Since the Hardware is almost the same, it might work, but not likely...

paul89 · March 15th, 2010, 08:20 PM

can we odin the kerenel, if we have the samsung TouchWiz stock with the origonal (try3) root method. Can we flash right over it?

BH_MAN · March 15th, 2010, 08:58 PM

Yes

kam187 · March 15th, 2010, 09:09 PM

Congrats BH_MAN!

Great success

So soon, try to boot the galaxy 2.1 asop :P

BH_MAN · March 15th, 2010, 10:03 PM

Well, looks like I need the Odin from the New Update.. Changing out Kernel's Breaks the Hack

It boot Loops, at first I thought I did something wrong. But, I've been able to produce the Old Kernel Mod several Times using the same Method. It looks like it's Checking the Header of the Boot.img against the Kernel version, which is Really weird!

My Hats off to Samsung on locking this down as Tight as they did.

Still Trying to work around it though

spiz · March 16th, 2010, 01:09 AM

So for those of us who are illiterate with all of this tech talk, am I correct in this translation?

BH_MAN is working on a way to get the updated kernel out to everyone? Essentially getting the full update as delivered from Samsung/TMobile minus the bloatware?

correct, plus his new way gives us 100% "true" root. Also he is working on making the custom kernel, so that we may run galaxy 2.1!

Holy nuts I am excited. BH_MAN... have you ever considered taking over Samsung?

+1. U got my vote if you are BH_MAN.

Also if we do ever get a nice custom kernel that'll work with galaxy 2.1, I will buy you a 6-pack!!!

A thank You is good enough

@everyone

I'm waiting for a crib to be shipped, so I'll get more Dev. time in...
Damn 10am - 2pm, I hate not having a Set time...

chadmd23 · March 16th, 2010, 11:56 AM

I have (well for the next few days) an extra Behold2 (no update, but have not tried to force it yet) that needs to be returned to TMO. Is there anything I can do to help test with this unit since I have no fear of bricking it?

Nu11u5 · March 16th, 2010, 12:01 PM

Great work BH_MAN!!

I'm staring at a kernel dump of UVJA3 right now. I'll get it uploaded within the hour.

FYI, the AMSS code also changed in the new version. I'll bundle that in as well.

Cool thanks...
It's not liking something for sure, and to be honest not sure I can Fix it.
But I'm Positive that it's the Header not Matching, which is hard to reproduce given I don't have the header from an Updated ODIN file for the kernel.

where would you have to get an Updated ODIN file from? Samsung is the only one who can make this?

From a Leak

But, I don't want anyone losing there Job just so we can Play.
It would be Nice, but the Cost wouldn't be worth it.

ODIN is not accepting the tar files?

There is no special Samsung header involved. The tar files have to be in usTar format. I've posted about this here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-behold-2/50366-ota-firmware-uris-found-work-still-needed-2.html#post428189

Also.. it sounds like your custom kernel is a drop in replacement for the original. Does this mean you got RFS working?!

The kernel and AMSS dump files are here: http://www.2shared.com/file/12161860/ae26249c/uvja3-rawfiles.html

Yes it's Drop in, but I only Modified the Ramdisk. RFS is working fine

This could be the source of the trouble when trying to add the new Kernel to the Ramdisk. But, not sure as of now. Not had whole lot of time to play with it.

BH_MAN · March 16th, 2010, 02:51 PM

I found an error in the Edited kernel I posted... Even though it allows rw, I forgot to set the SH as root so SU will work correctly for Superuser.apk /system/bin/su

I'll get an update posted shortly.

the one that is posted now and or the one that your about to post, is it still the older kernel or is it the updated kernel?

It's the Older Kernel...
But to be Honest, like I said... My Buddy at Samsung said there's nothing Life changing in the Kernel.

The changes where mainly in the OS not the Kernel.

paul89 · March 16th, 2010, 04:24 PM

so do you think i would have better advantages with the edited (older) kernel that you made over the new kernel unedited

phillynitro · March 16th, 2010, 05:29 PM

I had a Look at the AMSS, Um? I'm not going to even mess with this.. Though it would be nice to see what the changes was, I would only get one try.. If wrong, well, then I'll be looking at a bricked phone.

I'll leave this one to somebody better at Hex editing than me

BH_MAN · March 17th, 2010, 04:50 AM

Okay, I got the Kernel Done that Enables shell as Root. Man, Samsung really really don't want use messing around with this stuff.. Just adding a Few command into the init.rc breaks everything.... Finally got it working though

With this Kernel you have Full Access via ADB only... Root for App's You must allow / Deny

If you want root for app on a stock rom, you'll need to push the SU file to /system/bin & chmod 04755. Like So.

Quote:

adb push ( File location of su ) /system/bin
adb shell
chmod 04755 /system/bin/su

I'll be including root for apps like I always do in the Rom I make, just want to give a Heads up on this though..

*EDIT*
Revision 2 is Now Posted w/ the Shell Fix

jsproketrm · March 17th, 2010, 09:10 AM

BH_MAN will this modified kernel be included as part of your custom roms? Maybe this is a stupid question.

As of now no... Once I get the system ( Updated ) into a Flash-able image. I'll Include the Kernel & the System in a ODIN ready package.

SteveSlimer · March 17th, 2010, 10:21 AM

Have you had a chance to look at the new Galaxy Spica 2.1 ROM? Is that a new kernel as well?
