With this you would use Root Explorer or similar app to just drop it in your system/app folder

Somebody got a boot.img file from the X2? I don't even know if it's possible yet.
Thanks
Yes when you do a nandroid backup it will make a boot.img file. Look at your sdcard location in the folder where you make your backups.

I've made multiple backups and that's the first place I looked since system.img is there. Maybe I'm just dumb lol. If anyone can provide one, please pm me

I tried posting this earlier...
I'M NOT 100% SURE THIS IS THE CORRECT WAY
I think that the X2's partition layout is the same as the atrix. That being said, boot.img is in /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 and recovery.img is in /dev/block/mmcblk0p11.
Using split_bootimg.pl I managed to get an un-corrupt ramdisk from both and a supposed kernel from them too, but from what I read this script doesn't extract the actual kernel due to some corruption from using dd.
THIS MIGHT NOT BE CORRECT
Here is what I did on Ubuntu (windows should work too):
adb shell
$ su
# dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 of=/mnt/sdcard-ext/boot.img
# dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 of=/mnt/sdcard-ext/recovery.img
# exit
$ exit
adb pull /mnt/sdcard-ext/boot.img /YOUR/DIRECTORY
adb pull /mnt/sdcard-ext/recovery.img /YOUR/DIRECTORY
cd /YOUR/DIRECTORY
perl ./split_bootimg.pl boot.img
perl ./split_bootimg.pl recovery.img
You should now have a ramdisk for both that can be mounted in Ubuntu and explored and a supposed kernel, but I think it's corrupt like I said.
IFI AM INCORRECT, SOMEONE SAY THE CORRECT ANSWER
I'd like to know too
Hope I helped.

Guys, I wouldn't go screwing with the boot.img on the X2. It has a locked bootloader, just like the X and Droid 2. You're going to have to SBF.

Yea, I understand. We won't get anywhere if no one tries, though. I'm willing to take the risk.

It is a locked bootloader, and the boot.img is also in the sbf that you already have. This is where I got the init.rc out of the ramdisk from for 2nd-init.

True. But an SBF is hard to work with. I did get the kernel commands from it though. Surprisingly there's not that many.

Important away from a computer for a few days and was wondering if there's a way to flash CWM recovery without a pc or any previous versions of CWM installed. I had the CWM at some point and now when i boot into recovery i have the stock Samsung recovery and can't flash anything......
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I believe you can flash the img from terminal
Yes.
Assuming you're rooted, you should be able to move it to the right partition with a terminal emulator on your phone.

Sorry but im not familiar with using terminal.....could you post the steps i need to take? Thx in advance
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
typically it would go like this
assuming you have the recovery image in the root directory of the sdcard
open the terminal app
$
type 'su'
you should get the # prompt
then
# cd sdcard
# flash_image recovery recovery_image_name
give that a try

There are a couple commands you can run:
cat /proc/mtd
That will give you the mount points if you have a mtd device. If it says not found then you know your device isn't using mtd.
Another command to find the mount points is:
mount
You can also do:
dev/block/platform
Then:
ls
Then cd into the folder for the processor kind. For example on the US version of the Galaxy S3 it's msm_sdcc.1. Then cd into the "by-name" directory and then type ls -l to list the partitions and there mount points. Let me know if you still have questions .

Please cd into the by-name directory rather then by-num then run ls -la from that directory.

Looks like he only has a by-num
Try

Or maybe

In addition to what demkantor said you can also boot your device into recovery mode, wipe your devices cache, then reboot the phone which should create a last_log file that should contain the partition names, this file can be read by running the following command:
Code:
cat /cache/recovery/last_log
brother @shimp208 i did every thing as u said but i didnt found the mount points of boot and recovery i even saw in recovery.fstab but i didnt found mnts of boot and recovery....... is there any other ideas to find them......

Can you post the full output of the cat /cache/recovery/last_log command (You can also use adb shell and copy and paste it's output)? Also did you try the commands demkantor suggested?

The path to your boot partition is:
Code:
/dev/bootimg
The path to your recovery partition is:
Code:
/dev/recovery
If you wanted to dump these partitions you could run the commands from terminal emulator or adb shell as root:
Code:
cat /dev/bootimg > /mnt/sdcard/boot.img
cat /dev/recovery > /mnt/sdcard/recovery.img
Let me know if this is the information your looking for or not.

If you have root & busybox installed you can run this script.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
busybox mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:61 /mnt/sdcard
busybox sleep 3
if busybox mount | grep vold/179:61; then
mount -o bind /data/media /storage/external_SD
rm /storage/external_SD/external_sd
chmod -R 777 /sdcard
chmod -R 777 /data/media

place this file "swapint2ext.txt" on your sdcard and type the following
with a terminal emulator
Code:
su
./sdcard/swapint2ext.txt [B](if on your internal sdcard)[/B]
./sdcard/external_sd/swapint2ext.txt [B](if placed in your external sd)[/B]
with adb
Code:
adb shell
su
./sdcard/swapint2ext.txt [B](if on your internal sdcard)[/B]
./sdcard/external_sd/swapint2ext.txt [B](if placed in your external sd)[/B]
There is a lot more info on the subject in the general section. Look for the titles starting with swap internal or something similar. There are like 3 different threads on the subject. I'll send you a link later with some more info, but that will be later later

Hi,
i have "don´t permission", when i type this one in terminal emulator.
Any idea? My phone is rooted. I rename the "swapint2ext.txt in .sh", is this correct? And the path is "sdcard0", is this also correct?
And also i try to execute the "swapint2ext.sh" with the Root Explorer. Works fine, but i can´t install Fifa 14 for example. Not enough place...
Thanks Thomas

You are getting permission denied because it needs root access. Read this
