Hi,
Is there some way to root I9001 now or I have to wait.
Firmware I9001XXKE8
Android 2.3.3
Kernel 2.6.35.7
I tried several methods (Superoneclick 1.7, 1.9.1, Gingerbreak 1.2) available for I9000 but nothing positive.
If someone can guide me in this process will be very appreciated.
Go here for step by step instructions: http://androidhogger.com/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s2-heres-the-tutorial.html.
Hi,
It is guide for I9100 but I have I9001 it is completely different hardware, so I doubt that the same guide can be applied to I9001.
Any news on rooting? Have you sucseeded?
No, still waiting, but it starts to sell to mass in Russia so soon will get news.
Since yesterday the new 2.3.4 firmware is out:
http://netload.in/datei5X4ZyAkNkO/I9001XXKP4_v2.3.4.rar.htm
(edit: maybe its not 2.3.4 ... samfirmware write 2.3.3)
... but we wait still for the root...

Say what? Ofcourse 2.3.x can be rooted. We just have to get more attention to the 9001 so that the rom builders actively start devving this device.
Any one knows how to root this device?

I'm looking for a solution as well, please don't make me use Touchwiz..
Have tried to look into ways to root this phone. It looks like it'll need to be root in similar way to i9100. So guess will need to wait for dev to come up with a special kernel for rooting.
İ hope they they ll come up with new karnel as soon.as possible

Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1136781.html is afaik 2.3.3 rotted. I think there is a posibility to root I9001.
I hope so ....! Did u try this method?

Nope but I will try in this weekend. I found how to restore phone when you brick it (if something happen) , and it's not so hard. That's why I will use different method to root it. I just wonder if one of brick is avilable or more. I only know how to unbrick by this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qB4RNoXTd8 . Its very simple just install software downoladed from http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9001.htm our software is in the middle I9001XXKF8 ##. Odin as well recognize my phone.
I have managed it to root the i9001. So far it is very complicated, and the detailed guide as well as the analysis of SMD archives is only in German available:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/samsung...g-galaxy-s-plus-i9001-rooten.html#post1911955
As always: You are responsible for your Phone! If someone bricks his device using this guide, I am not responsible for that! Bad Luck, I have warned you! Its a dangerous job! You really shouldn't do it.
In short:
- extract the PDA SMD File
- mount system.ext4
- copy su binary and Superuser.apk into the mounted image
- adjust the file permissions (especially the suid bit for su)
- umount system.ext4
- repack the PDA SMD.
I have created two Linux bash scripts for extracting and packing SMD Archives. Warning: I'm not very experienced in bash scripting. If someone is here who is capable of making a nice script of it, feel free! The scripts are working, that's all so far. They won't win a price in a beauty contest.
First the extract.sh:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
base=0
length=1
while (( length > 0 ))
do
# calculate Length
let "skip = base + 18"
length=`hexdump -e '"%d"' -s ${skip} -n 2 ${1}`
let "length = length * 65536"
let "skip = base + 16"
length2=`hexdump -e '"%d"' -s ${skip} -n 2 ${1}`
let "length += length2"
let "length = length / 512" # Number of 512-Byte blocks
# calculate offset
let "skip = base + 22"
offset=`hexdump -e '"%d"' -s ${skip} -n 2 ${1}`
let "offset = offset * 65536"
let "skip = base + 20"
offset2=`hexdump -e '"%d"' -s ${skip} -n 2 ${1}`
let "offset += offset2"
let "offset = offset / 512" # Number of 512-Byte blocks
# save header in case of first loop
if (( base == 0 ))
then
dd if=${1} bs=512 of=header count=${offset}
fi
# extract filename
let "skip = base + 32"
filename=`dd if=${1} skip=${skip} count=16 bs=1 2>/dev/null`
# and finally: extract image
if (( length > 0 ))
then
echo "Length: ${length}"
echo "Offset: ${offset}"
echo "Filename: ${filename}"
dd if=${1} bs=512 of=${filename} skip=${offset} count=${length} 2>/dev/null
fi
# next header
let "base += 64"
done
Syntax: ./extract.sh Archive.smd
The script will extract the archive and create a lot of local files (system.ext, boot.img and so on). Well, the content of the Archive obviously.
Root the system.ext4:
I have used the newest su and Superuser.apk from here (3.0-beta4 at the moment. Newer ones should be ok):
http://goo-inside.me/superuser
The steps for rooting a system.ext4:
Code:
mkdir system
sudo mount -o loop system.ext4 system
sudo cp su system/xbin/
sudo chown 0.0 system/xbin/su
sudo chmod 4755 system/xbin/su
sudo cp Superuser.apk system/app/
sudo chown 0.0 system/app/Superuser.apk
sudo chmod 644 system/app/Superuser.apk
sudo umount system
And the pack.sh. Note: The pack.sh so far expects an existing "header" file created from an extract action and all files to be added into the archive. The resulting archive will have the same contents, as the starting archive (of course with a modified system.ext4). MD5 Checksums in the archive are calculated automatically.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
base=16
length=0
filename=dummy
# save the beginning
dd if=header of=newheader bs=1 count=16 2>/dev/null
# First create the MD5 checksums of all included (and maybe modified) files and generate the new header
while [ ! -z "${filename}" ]
do
# Length, offset, etc. is unchanged, just copy it.
let "skip = base"
dd if=header of=newheadertmp bs=1 skip=${skip} count=32 2>/dev/null
cat newheadertmp >> newheader
rm newheadertmp
# extract filename
let "skip = base + 16"
filename=`dd if=header skip=${skip} count=16 bs=1 2>/dev/null`
if [ ! -z "${filename}" ]
then
echo "creating MD5Sum of: ${filename}"
checksum=`md5sum ${filename} | tr '[a-z]' '[A-Z]'`
echo -n ${checksum:0:32} >> newheader
fi
# next header
let "base += 64"
done
# save the rest of the old header.
filesize=$(stat -c%s header)
let "base -= 32"
let "size = filesize - base"
dd if=header of=newheadertmp bs=1 skip=${base} count=${size} 2>/dev/null
cat newheadertmp >> newheader
rm newheadertmp
# the new header is the first content of the new archive.
cat newheader > ${1}
# now add all files to the archive.
filename=dummy
base=16
while [ ! -z "${filename}" ]
do
# extract filename
let "skip = base + 16"
filename=`dd if=header skip=${skip} count=16 bs=1 2>/dev/null`
if [ ! -z "${filename}" ]
then
echo "Adding: ${filename}"
cat ${filename} >> ${1}
fi
# next header
let "base += 64"
done
rm newheader
Syntax: ./pack.sh Archive.smd
Flash the resulting .smd files using Odin Multi Downloader an be happy about a rooted SGS Plus.
Note: The procedure has been tested with European KF6 and KP4 firmware. the scripts are capable of extracting and packing other SMD Archives as well, like Modem or CSC SMDs. But you don't need it for rooting (but maybe for debranding or customizing ROMs).
I'm thinking about an simpler root method like a modified kernel with a "magic" initramfs (like CF Root is working). This would make rooting of course much easier. But I have to investigate a lot of things handling boot.imgs.
Nice one RiverSource! Let's hope this is the start of more to come (ie. easier root, custom roms..).
Hello,
ok, next step for rooting the SGS Plus: The FMROOT (hehe). FMROOT is the original untouched Samsung Kernel with a modified init.rc. The init.rc calls a script which places the su binary and the Superuser.apk into the /system partition.
As always: You are responsible for your Phone! If someone bricks his device using this guide, I am not responsible for that! Bad Luck, I have warned you! Its a dangerous job! You really shouldn't do it.
Howto:
Download the appropriate file for your firmware.
Extract it
There should be 2 Files: AriesVE.ops and FMROOT_?????.smd
Use Odin Multi Downloader
Put "AriesVE.ops" in OPS
Put "FMROOT_?????.smd" in PDA
Flash. Wait 5 Seconds. Phone reboots. Phone is rooted. Normally without loosing data or settings.
Please ask here, if your Firmware is not available. It should be possible to create an appropriate FMROOT Kernel.
Credits:
astuermer for pointing me to the correct su and Superuser binaries.
Chainfire here from XDA Developers. My script is based on the CF-Root
Paul from Madaco. I had a closer look into his "superboot".
Lots and Lots of Custom ROM Developers for i9000 and i9100. I have learned a lot about Android Images on Samsung phones from them.
For the developers: the FMBOOT Script called by init.rc:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /system
rm /system/xbin/su
rm /system/bin/su
mkdir /system/xbin
cat /fmboot/su > /system/xbin/su
chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
cat /fmboot/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk
mount -o ro,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /system
And the calling code inside the init.rc:
Code:
start fmboot
class_start default
## Daemon processes to be run by init.
##
service fmboot /system/bin/sh /fmboot/fmboot.sh
user root
group root
oneshot
If someone is interested, I can post a howto on modifying boot.imgs for SGS Plus. Don't hesitate to ask. BTW, i have also coded a script which is capable of generating SMD archives with any content (not based on a previous SMD archive). I can also post it, if someone is interested.
I think, I will optimize the script in the future. Checking if the phone is already rooted and skip the thing for example. Or adding busybox. Are there any additional ideas?
Thank you very [email protected]@@@ Come on!
THX, THX,..
It works, rooted..!!
Hi,
i tried to translate a MIUI for Galaxy Nexus rom into french (can also be an other language)
i wrote an unix script to automate the process.
What i do is quite simple:
i get a specific MIUI V4 version for my device and the same translated version for the nexus S (because the nexus S has a french version)
i decompile each apk from the french rom, an put the french files into to decompile galaxy nexus directories
i recompile each apk
and i copy the compiled resources into the origin galaxy nexus apks
and i build the new ROM
but i get a bootloop any ideas ?
here is my script
if there are any part of this script that isn't clear, i could try to explain them.
of course this script could also be used on other device or other translation with some changes.
Thanks in advance .

As of now I have all of the sys apps deodexed and about half of the framework deodexed. I'm working to find out why i cannot complete the framework deodex. I will edit this post with downloads as I go. The first edit will be the deodexed apk's and the partial on the framework. just need to get them uploaded first.

I managed to fully deodex this ROM: P5200XXUAMG7_P5200OXXAMG4_XEH.zip (it's for P5200 3G model)
Here is the script I wrote for deodexing:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
for f in *.odex; do
no_ext=`echo $f | sed 's/.odex//'`
echo "deodexing $no_ext"
java -Xmx512m -jar /home/android/bin/baksmali-2.0b6.jar -a 17 -d ../system/framework -x $no_ext.odex
java -Xmx512m -jar /home/android/bin/smali-2.0b6.jar -a 17 -o classes.dex out
rm -rf out
if [ -e $no_ext.apk ]
then
zip -r -q $no_ext.apk classes.dex
fi
if [ -e $no_ext.jar ]
then
zip -r -q $no_ext.jar classes.dex
fi
rm -rf classes.dex
done
I used the latest baksmali and smali. It showed some error messages for Dropbox.odex and Magazines.odex files, but these two can be deodexed as well if you remove the -a switch from baksmali and smali lines.
Hope this helps.
Thanks if you have it linked anywhere on here I'll have to look at it to make sure I am not trying to do the same work twice. but in the mean time I'll give that script a try.
I have all deodexed...
But I have a update-binary issue that lets me not install a custom rom.

Well I've deleted them now... Dutch dany has them completed up in a post anyway, that's why I never bothered finishing.
Oohh to bad because the one you hsve is for p5200and the one from dutchdanny is for p5210
I just need the framework data ..

Thanks for the info about the "a" option. Ran in to this dilemma earlier.
Hey there
Thought this might help some of you finding yourself in a huge mess because WhatApp restores all its media with the date the restore takes place. I wrote a little shellscript you can run in "adb shell". Just paste it into the shell and run it inside WhatsApps Folders.
In "WhatsApp Images" and it's subfolder "Sent" use this:
Code:
for file in *; do
if [ -f "$file" ]; then
timestamp=$(echo "$file" | sed 's/^IMG-\(.*\)-WA\(...\)\(.\)\..*/\10\2\.0\3/g')
echo $timestamp
echo $file
touch -m -t $timestamp $file
fi
done
For "WhatsApp Animated Gifs" and "WhatsApp Video" use this:
Code:
for file in *; do
if [ -f "$file" ]; then
timestamp=$(echo "$file" | sed 's/^VID-\(.*\)-WA\(...\)\(.\)\..*/\10\2\.0\3/g')
echo $timestamp
echo $file
touch -m -t $timestamp $file
fi
done
Keep the following in mind:
- This code works only if your version of Android allows you to change the modified date of files without root. As far as I know this is the case since Andoid 9
- This code doesn't work if you have files with a WA-Number higher than 0599 as my script doesn't take care to match the number with a proper timeformat.
- This code changes the last modified date of your files like this:
Filename: IMG-20190915-WA0039.jpg
Timestamp: 201909150003.09 -> 20190915 00:03:09

Dear developers,
I have an issue in my script switching from Android 9 to 10 (devices from a Umidigi s3 Pro to a Umidigi F2)
I have installed Bosybox App on the first and Busybox Magisk module on the latter
Now the script does not work because the command
list=(`busybox find "$dirs" -type f -name *.$ext`)
returns an empty array
This is the complete script:
Bash:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo
if test "$1" = ""; then
echo "Randomfile script by Uranya <[email protected]> v1.4 01.01.2021"
echo "Usage:"
echo "sh randomfile.sh <sourcedir> <extension> <destdir>"
exit 1
fi
dirs=$1
ext=$2
dird=$3'/'
dest=$dird'random'
delim1=""
delim2=""
last='last.txt'
# create filename's array
IFS=$'\n'
# here we have the ISSUE
list=(`busybox find "$dirs" -type f -name *.$ext`)
# count number of files
num=${#list[@]}
# initialize random generator
RANDOM=$$
# generate random number in range 1-NUM
let "ran=(${RANDOM} % ${num})+ 1"
echo Random from $num files is $ran
sour=${list[ran]}
sourn=${sour#$dirs}
sourn=${sourn:1:${#sourn}}
date=$(date +"%Y.%m.%d %H:%M")
day=$(date +"%d")
hour=$(date +"%H")
minute=$(date +"%M")
message='---------------------------------------\n'$date' - '$num' >>> '$ran'\n'$delim1$sourn$delim2
if ([ "$day" = "01" ] && [[ "$minute" < "29" ]]) || [ ! -f $dird$last ]; then
echo >$dird$last $message
else
sed -i '1i'$message $dird$last
fi
echo $delim1$sourn$delim2
# rename the old file
cp $dest.$ext $dest'_back.'$ext
# copy the file
cat "$sour" >$dest.$ext
echo File copied as $delim1$dest.$ext$delim2
Can you please help me why this happens, and how to fix it?
Thank you very much for your attention!

Having done some tests I have found this:
opening a root privileged terminal and executing
---
echo `find /storage/7BC3-1805/Music/MP3/Abba -type f -name *.mp3`
---
it returns two strings containing the names of files inside that folder, but putting it in my script continues to return an empty array, so the issue is not in the access to the folder, but in the syntax, I guess
try putting that *.$ext into quotes...
Dear friends, CXZa, after a couple of hours debugging the script, finally, I have found the mistake!
The line to be used is:
list=( `find "$dirs" -type f -name "*.$ext"` )
it is a very subtle difference: the space after and before the parenthesis!
(even the word busybox is useless)
Oddly in the Busybox app (I have had on my S3 Pro) the spaces are not mandatory, whilst in the Busybox Magisk module those spaces ARE mandatory!
I'm using that script for almost 8 years to have an every day different music for my wake up.
I'm using Tasker to call it just before my alarm get off, so the same file contains every day, a different song.
I have done a change also in the array index that did not began by 0...
So, here it is the right script:
Bash:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo
if test "$1" = ""; then
echo "Randomfile script by Uranya <@uranya7x> v1.5 26.03.2021"
echo "Usage:"
echo "sh randomfile.sh <sourcedir> <extension> <destdir>"
exit 1
fi
dirs=$1
ext=$2
dird=$3'/'
dest=$dird'random'
delim1=""
delim2=""
last='last.txt'
# create filename's array
IFS=$'\n'
list=( `find "$dirs" -type f -name "*.$ext"` )
# count number of files
num=${#list[@]}
# generate random number in range 1-NUM
let "ran=(${RANDOM} % ${num})+ 1"
echo Random from $num files is $ran
sour=${list[$ran-1]}
sourn=${sour#$dirs}
sourn=${sourn:1:${#sourn}}
date=$(date +"%Y.%m.%d %H:%M")
day=$(date +"%d")
hour=$(date +"%H")
minute=$(date +"%M")
message='---------------------------------------\n'$date' - '$num' >>> '$ran'\n'$delim1$sourn$delim2
if ([ "$day" = "01" ] && [[ "$minute" < "29" ]]) || [ ! -f $dird$last ]; then
echo >$dird$last $message
else
sed -i '1i'$message $dird$last
fi
echo $delim1$sourn$delim2
# rename the old file
cp $dest.$ext $dest'_back.'$ext
# copy the file
cat "$sour" >$dest.$ext
echo File copied as $delim1$dest.$ext
I hope it will be useful to someone else that loves to be waked up by music...
Peace everywhere!
