General :: Heimdall - Download Kernel Image From Phone
Nov 25, 2013
I recently started experimenting with the Android kernel. I downloaded the 3.0.31 kernel (because I wasn't able to find the sources for my stock one: 3.0.31-889555) and built a kernel image (zImage) successfully.
I plan to use Heimdall github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall to flash the kernel image on my phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100) but before I do this I would like to download the current kernel image from my phone.
Since heimdall is capable to flash the current kernel image, I guess it's also capable of downloading the current, is it?

As the title says, i've lost the default image viewer. My phone had a minor update which changed the way it receives further updates and added Backup & Restore.
But since I have lost the default image viewer. So without crappy mediascape I'm no longer able to click through my images, zoom and set as wallpaper. Has anyone else come across this? Is there a way I can download default software again? Pretty agrovate about this, x10 has been a nightmare since day 1.

The emulator screen does not show up with new zImage... The steps I followed are: 1) Downloaded the android kernel from "git clone git://github.com/CyanogenMod/cm-kernel.git" 2) extracted config file from config.gz from /proc/config.gz in emulator 3) copied config file to .config in "cm-kernel" directory 4) export CCOMPILER=${HOME}/android/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/ toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- 5) make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER oldconfig make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER menuconfig make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER

I am in a development team which develops an app used by millions of users worldwide. We get mysterious crash log messages all the time which happens only a couple dozen or even less devices which we can not directly reproduce while the vast majority of the users can use those features without problem. We suspect that in some of these cases some custom ROM or custom kernel causes the problem. Currently we get these informations from the hardware/software environment (in the parentheses there are examples from an actual crash log):
- Android version (4.0.4)
- Board version (SPH-D710)
- Brand (Samsung)
- System build number (IMM76I.FH13)
- System build ID (IMM76I)
I have a Nexus S with ParanoidAndroid, and on the About Phone page there are the extra fields I speak about (for example CyanogenMod version, ParanoidAndroid version, kernel version). My question is that is there an universal way to extract all or some of this information which could work on any device?

I am trying to update kernel fot HTC phone from 3.0.16 to 3.0.61 , as far as i know the theoretical procedure should be:
1) revert 3.0.16 to 3.0.0
2) update 3.0.0 to 3.0.61
and compile
my problem is wen i try to revert the patch with:
Code:
patch -i /pathtopatch/patch-3.0.16 -R -p1 --dry-run
it give me:
Code:
....
patching file drivers/tty/serial/pch_uart.c
patching file drivers/tty/serial/pxa.c
patching file drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c
patching file drivers/hid/hid-core.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1340.
1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file drivers/hid/hid-core.c.rej
....
and
Code:
............
patching file drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c
patching file drivers/usb/class/usbtmc.c
patching file drivers/usb/core/config.c
patching file drivers/usb/core/devio.c
Unreversed patch detected! Ignore -R? [n] y
........
i think it is because HTC patch those files before. What those two fail messages means? and what is the right procedure to update kernel

I'm trying to make a custom kernel for the Samsung Gravity SMART using sources from the unofficial CM9 port for the Gio/Ace (which both use very similar hardware to the Gravity Smart). What I've succeeded at so far:
1) Acquiring the source, both for the CM9 kernel and for the stock Froyo kernel
2) Searching for the device-dependent references in the stock kernel
3) Porting those changes over to the CM9 kernel
4) Getting everything to actually compile
5) Acquiring the stock CM7.2 source
6) Creating device makefiles (i.e. BoardConfig.mk, etc)
7) Building CM7.2 using kernel built in step #4
8) Putting the various img files into an Odin-compatible .tar.md5
9) Actually flashing to the phone.
And for all that work, I got.. a soft-bricked phone (fortunately, I have an Odin file for stock firmware). The phone boots to a SAMSUNG logo (not flashing/throbbing). how the heck do I figure out what's actually failing? Is there a bootloader to unlock, and if so how do I unlock it?

I'm trying to develop an OC'd kernel for Pantech vega racer 2 phone. It has the same hardware as HTC Evita.
I was able to overckock it using zarboz' and rohan's work. But the frequence is drops down to stock 1.5 Ghz while the processor is on max load.
For example, I started SetCPU stress test and after few minutes checked max freq. It was dropped down to stock 1.5 Ghz.
The same with Antutu bench. Even with OCing up to 2 Ghz in final resulst it show 1512 Mhz and freqs are dropped down.
Due to the lack of development for this phone, I can't find any examples of OC code especially for this phone.

I am trying to develop an android application that shows the user the location of atms,hotels etc on a google map....i havent started working on the gps yet.as of now the app works something like this....first of all a map loads on which i intend to show the users current location......on clicking on the menu button there are 3 options.....
-services
-about us
-quit
on selecting services option the following options are available......
-atm
-hospital
-hotel
etc
on selecting the atm option we will be shown a screen displaying some text........
on using the menu for this screen we get the following menu items.....
-sbi
-canara
-hdfc
-icici
etc
My intention is that when the user selects the sbi option a map should load showing the various places where there are sbi atms near where the user is currently............i started out with the google map api but i had to quit because when i select one of the menu options,such as "sbi",the map doesnt load......instead i am getting the error "application failed to load"...basically i was trying to load a map activity from my first map activity......after googling a bit without any results i tried another approach.......i tried to download and view the static map of the location i wanted..it worked.......but when i tried to download
the static map when i select an option like before i get the same error..."application failed to load"...then i tried downloading 2 images from inside onCreate....that worked.......i cannot do the same thing outside the onCreate.....for eg.inside the function for the selected option...

where I have got right now on my phone, which is:
1. I updated to stock 2.1 using the sprint update tool.
2. I followed the video tutorial to root the phone
3. then i used joey's page (http://www.joeyconway.com/sdx/custom/index.php) to install the his kernel (joeykrim-SDX-kernel v2.0.4 (includes root)).
I have done nothing else to the phone but this and removing a couple of bloatware apps (i checked the list of permitted deletions before i removed anything.) I have not installed a new recovery..at least i dont think that I did as part of one of the other operations I performed (as an aside, i am not really sure what the custom recovery is or what it is used for, so i didnt install it...i guess i need to read up more...)
So that is where I am..but i have a couple of questions.
1) i am now having issues with my wifi connection - the signal reception is very spotty in areas where i should have atleast 2 bars of reception, and the wifi often cuts out completely....Is there any know corellation between joey's kernel and this wifi issue? I have searched the forums and have found nothing that answers this.
2) Is there an easy way to get back to the stock kernel? I have read that i can get back to stock everything by using the sprint download center where I did my original 2.1 update. But is there a way to get back to just the stock kernel without wiping the phone?

When I was on stock Xperia Gingerbread 2.3.4 on my ST17i, the average image file size I take is only playing around 300 to 600kb each However, after flashing the MiniCMSandwich Lite AOSP rom, the file sizes have been bumped to an average of 1.3mb. I want to know why? As far as I know, on both stock and MiniCMSandwich, I've set the resolution to the highest (5 megapixels).
Is it a matter of the camera apps? (Xperia camera and stock camera).how big your average file sizes are for 5mp of images.

Any way to browse a PC directory structure using an android phone (Galaxy Note 2 in this case) and maybe download files directly to my SD card?
I have a laptop and the screen has gone - most of the info is backed up but there are a couple of documents I would like to try to salvage if possible.
