Does anybody need rom images of uninitialized bell Canada notes?
Yes, but I kind of get the feeling that Bell Note owners are somewhat of a pariah on here....

I wouldn't mind getting the images, if possible. Actually only need the recovery image. I haven't touched any of the others yet.
I have a Bell Note and am planning to try and pull the system.img, kernel, and recovery before I try ICS. Just trying to figure out how to get all three. I'm thinking from what I read that I can only get two of the three. Flash Da_G's 3e recovery +adb root and grab the system and kernal but lose the recovery. Or (and I'm not as clear on this one) flash his pre-rooted kernel and grab system and recovery and be missing the kernel. Catch 22 I think. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you look on this thread below, there is stock kernel link there. So flash rooted kernel, grab the two others, and then restore the stock kernel from the link below.

I had found that, but the part I'm fuzzy on is does flashing Da_G's pre-rooted kernel change anything about the stock ROM that would make pulling it irrelevant?

I don't know. I just got the Note this saturday passed. Soo excited. But I'd suggest, if you haven't flashed anything yet, get a hold of braway. He seems to need raw data from Bell Galaxy Note to help restore flash counter to 0.
Check out this link if you would like to do that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24349492&postcount=109
I found that link too late, and had already flashed CWM.

So braway got back to me. Long and short of it is one person Note can't give all the data. Some data needs to be lost so the rest can be pulled. On the up side, between two people, we can get all the data we need. One person to pull kernel, modem, mdm, and system by flashing CWM, and one person to pull recovery and flash counter data by temp flashing mashi's rooted AT&T system. This way we'd have everything. I volunteer to grab the former (kernel, etc). If someone else would grab the recovery and flash counter, we'd be in business.
Thank you so much to braway for the help, and marshals for pointing me in his direction!

I've already lost the original recovery due to me installing CWM and my flash counter is at 1. So no help from me. Sorry. But everything else is untouched, so if anything else is needed, i'll be glad to help.
Just a little warning. If you flash is, you will loose youth stock bell modem. If you are doing a system pull. Do a modem pull with adb as well

Okay marshal, braway suggested we work together on this. Assuming you've done nothing else to your Note (root etc), if you can pull kernel, modem (amss), mdm, and system, I'll grab recovery and flash counter data. Braway already showed me how to pull kernel, etc in PM. See quote below. Let me know if you're able to do this. Otherwise, we'll need to find another person and different division of labour. Thanks!
braway said:
so, the easiest is probably to simply install cwm through odin
that will increase the counter, but doesn't touch system, kernel, modem...
then, boot to recovery
cwm provides you with root shell access through adb, so you can pull all the data you need...
I think the important data is:
kernel, modem (amss), mdm (part of modem?), system
commands (would dump the data on your internal sd, the sds are mounted differently in recovery):
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/emmc/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/emmc/amss.bin
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 of=/emmc/mdm.bin
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p24 of=/emmc/system.img.ext4
Note: that would dump it on your internal sd, replace emmc with sdcard if you want it on your external sd

I did root it, but it didn't touch the kernel. It was a video I watched from zedomax. The superuser-3.0.7-efgi-signed.zip. All it does is remove existing su, copy over superuser, change modes and thats basically.
I will do the commands you suggested and zip them up and dropbox them.

Braway only wants the flash counter which I can give him. But I can't give it to him if I don't have a backup of stock, kernel, etc for my own use. The whole reason I'm doing this is so I can revert to stock without AT&T stuff on my phone if I decide to go back (e.g.: for OTA update when Bell releases ICS in May). As I understand it, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but a rip of the ROM doesn't have personal info in it. If it does, I apologize for you doing all that.
Oh, ok.. I wouldn't think there would be info either. Any of that stuff would be in /data I suppose.
Essentially, I'm trying to make a stock Bell ROM so that anyone can go back to stock without having to use the stock AT&T ROM that some Canadian Note owners have been running into issues with.

EDIT: Rezolved! Just forgot to flash stock boot.img before i restored my kernel.

i figured out that it is the main problem with how we flash kernels. the curret build for kernels extracts data out of the boot.img and inserts it in the ph.img file that we flash. i just needed to reflash a stock boot.img throught fastboot. such a pain in the ass

Same thing happened to me.... I kind of feel like an idiot. Things were much easier on my OG droid!
Question: I did the same fix (flashing the PH98 from the post in link 2) to get me back to a stock boot.img. Am I now able to flash another kernel, or is that post correct and I will need to manually edit my mainver for the rest of my phone's life?

I second this question. I am thankful for the fix!!!!! But can we return to business as usual or just stay with stock now that we have saved ourselves?
Edit: pda-odin-rogers-stock-system-boot.img now contains a new boot.img file that hopefully will include the Rogers boot animation. Try it out and let me know how it goes.
These are Odin-flashable .tars of the stock Rogers system, boot/kernel, and radios and can be used to revert to stock.
Files Available
NB: All files are zipped to save space. Please extract the .tar before flashing via Odin.
pda-odin-rogers-stock-system-boot.zip - This .tar contains the stock system.img.ext4 and stock boot.img and can be used to assist in resetting your flash counter using braway's method. Flash it via Odin's pda option. The recovery.img has been removed to preserve CWM if you've already flashed it to your phone. Once your flash counter has been reset, you can then return recovery to stock via this method using just the recovery.img file in the archive here.
phone-odin-rogers-stock-radio.zip - This .tar contains the stock Bell modem/radio and is flashed via Odin's phone option. Not working properly. Apparently I don't know how to make Odin flashable modem .tars, lol
Rogers-Modem-CWM.zip - This is a CWM-flashable .zip of the modem files. Should work perfectly. Let me know if you run into any problems.
SkyDrive Folder of all Rogers Files I've added all the files to my SkyDrive since my public DropBox links keep being suspended due to excessive traffic. Hopefully this solves all future problems.
Disclaimer
I am in no way responsible for any damages caused to your Note by anything you flashed. These files are provided as is to help Rogers Note owners return to stock after whatever they've done to their phones.

Well crap. I thought I fixed that. I might just package them in a CWM zip instead. Also, you can push them manually using ADB if you feel confident enough. If you extract the two files from the .tar, the code necessary is below.
Code:
adb push amss.bin /tmp/amss.bin
adb push mdm.bin /tmp/mdm.bin
adb shell dd if=/tmp/amss.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
adb shell dd if=/tmp/mdm.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17
Be very careful with this and check for typos as an error here can brick your phone as I understand it. This is provided as is and I am in no way responsible for anything you do to your phone.

Basically the link is for rooting your phone; there are 2 threads in the development area concerning it.
If someone did a factory reset; then went into recovery and did a backup.
Could that backup be used by someone else; say this poor soul. To use to restore them back to stock?
I'm thinking if channelzer0 could get their phone to CWM they could use that method to get back to a working state; would that work??
I can get into both recovery or Odin. Whether itll work or not....im willing to find out if I can.

Yes and yes. You might need to relock the bootloader if you flash a stock RUU (not officially available for AT&T yet). Once installed you can unlock and root again.

Since there is no RUU, this is a flashable zip in TWRP. You can flash this to get your phone up and running. However, this will not replace TWRP.
If your phone is messed up and you want root as well, flash the deodexed and rooted ROM.

Since there is no RUU, this is a flashable zip in TWRP. You can flash this to get your phone up and running. However, this will not replace TWRP.

Oh! OK. My phone is not messed up, I am just waiting on an AT&T deodexed ROM to be made!
So...that leads me to one more question, and I'll leave you alone!
The 'AT&T Stock Deodexed Rooted Base (Devs Only)' ROM in the OP is a fully operational ROM? The statement in the OP "One will be a deodexed, rooted, base for any dev to use to make a ROM" made me think these were base files to be used to create a ROM. So if it is a fully operational ROM, I could use that, right...even if my phone is NOT messed up? (well, that was two questions). I am still stock at the moment...

It's a fully operational ROM. You can flash it even if your phone isnt messed up. So think of it as a custom ROM. You can just flash it in TWRP.
Downloading now! This marks day 3 with no phone! I hope this ends my nightmare. Thank you so much.

Thanks. Just to make sure I have the steps straight (in a manual method):
Copy 'evitareul_dev_base.zip' to my internal memory ("/storage/internal memory/" in Solid Explorer)
Unlock device with Unlock Code from HTC.dev
Install AT&T Recovery provided in the All-In-One Tool; reboot to bootloader and flash recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Enter Recovery and flash the 'SuperSU.zip' from the all-in-one tool folder
At this time I would be stock and rooted, correct?
Return to bootloader and install kernel provided in the 'AT&T Stock Deodexed Rooted Base (Devs Only)'
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Return to recovery and perform wipes....here is where I am unsure after reading the "Important and Read" threads about the /data/media. I am accustom to doing these wipes from TWRP on my OneX: (1) factory reset, (2) wipe dalvik cache and (3) wipe System....Is that what I need to do for the OneX Plus?
Install 'evitareul_dev_base.zip' ROM from recovery
I appreciate your response! I don't want to mess anything up...I guess I'm over precautious!!
I wiped, guess i wiped the wrong thing, now rom wont boot. i can get to recovery, twrp, but how do i now get this zip on to the phone since i cant boot? mount in twrp im not seeing anything on my computer. ATT X+
@nugzo. Did you have the zip on the device prior to entering recovery and performing the wipes?
EDIT: If so, what wipes did you perform?

yes i did but it was the wrong zip. It was mikes 1986 rom, at the time i didnt realize it wasnt for ATT. So after wiping, i guess i wiped the stock rom. Wiped system, data, and davlik. now it just sits at HTC quietly brilliant screen.

trying the sideload adb in twrp but that didnt work, says no device found. when i do adb devices my device shows though. now i, trying to get this stock rooted installed.
Wiping System, Data, Dalvik definitely wipes the stock ROM!
Hmmmm. Mike's OP states nearly on the first line of his thread: "Not working with AT&T One X+ LTE"
All that I've read is that you have to have the ROM on the device before booting to recovery...but there was a statement that it could be adb pushed:

With "no device found"...I'm not sure what to do...Hopefully one of the devs will ring in for you.

I'm making 2 ROMs right now.
One will be a deodexed, rooted, base for any dev to use to make a ROM. No need to ask for permission, just give me credit. That's all I ask.
There other will be for people who want to go back to complete stock that do not have the RUU.

Does anybody have the stock recovery.img file? I cannot find it anywhere and I need to restore it.
I've also been looking for this, I think tomorrow I may go to a tmobile store and see if I can pull it from a demo phone. I don't think you need root to do that but I'm not sure o.o if I can do it though I'll put it up here
---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------
I lied on accident I guess I would need root for that. Should've known :/
There is no ruu yet. Search the forum and you'll find how to return to stock.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
As far as I know the stock recovery isn't available though, at least not for the tmobile one. I've found it for the ATT and original HTC one but tmobile's isn't available. Idk if lkimmel7 found or still needs it though.
I still am looking for it... I made the horrible mistake of encrypted my phone using the built in encrypt option in android... and because I have CWM recovery on it, I cannot undue the encryption.. (obviously because my recovery partition cannot read the /data or /sdcard with it being encrypted).
From what I know, the only was for me to get my phone back to normal is to flash the stock recovery, then boot up normally, then use the factory format option from the android menu.
Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

You can get the stock recovery in that thread its in the first post. I'm not sure if it'll work for what you need to do or not I've never needed to do that, but hopefully it does what you need it to

That recovery will not work for a T-Mobile HTC one, I have been trying and trying. Its the same recovery found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763 Which also does not work.
I can only assume that it needs to be the carrier specific recovery. The ones above will not actually boot into recovery and if you relock the bootloader it gives a security warning.
Yeah, that recovery doesnt work for me.... and now it's looking like i need to do a full re-flash, but I cannot find all the need .img files..
Total bummer, BE WARNED: DO NOT ENCRYPT YOUR PHONE. huge PITA
Hey guys. I pulled this from another thread. I'm pretty sure it's what you're looking for, but I haven't flashed it yet.

Thank You!!!
I'm actually not sure whether this will actually work on my device but I will still try. I wish to install the new OTA but I couldn't because I was stock with TWRP since I never made a back up of the Stock Recovery. (I don't know how). Anyways, about to try this and thank you so much for the mirror! The Dropbox link was no longer working.
I am using stock T-Mobile Rom with HTC Sense, rooted and S-Off. I hope it doesn't take S-Off and if it does, well then screw it. I don't really need it anyways.
Thanks again! I will edit afterwards telling if I had success or not. Fingers crossed.
