First Firmware for Samsung Z3 available. - Tizen Software Development

The first firmware for the Samsung Z3 is now available. Anyone had a play with it? It doesn't flash onto a TM1 dev device. I wonder why?
http://www.tizenexperts.com/2015/10...ware-now-available-to-download-z300hddu0aoj4/

Only theory because only research without device...
1.
TM1 device with reference Firmware from July interact only with THOR aka lthor as Download Tool...
How to identify what I have...
1.1
*#1234# should not show Versions info...
1.2
But su should be in bin folder so have ROOT access and could do funny dump action to check more...
SDB ROOT ON should work...
2.
Z3 or TM1 with Z3 Firmware...
2.1
*#1234# should show you Firmware Version
2.2
SDB ROOT ON maybe not work because NO Binary su in bin folder...
TM1 with Reference Firmware not work with ODIN because THOR is send as "handshake"...
Extract sboot.bin and search for text string:
Code:
ODIN
or
THOR
"Easiest" modification should be on Firmware package...
Code:
csc.img
dzImage
dzImage-recovery
modules.img
nvitem.bin
ramdisk-recovery.img
ramdisk.img
rootfs.img
[B][COLOR="Red"]sboot.bin
spl.img[/COLOR][/B]
SPRDCP.img
SPRDDSP.img
Remove sboot.bin and spl.img from package...
Then in theory device have second chance, if something is wrong, because old Bootloader are present and not overwritten...
For me 600 MB upload is tooooo much... sorry.
Please, if somebody try... then please copy and paste Odin log...
Thanx in advance.
TM1 user before stupid tests could dump eMMC before...(part of it).
Something like this:
Code:
sdb root on
sdb shell
dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/FULLdump.bin
Output looks like this... in theory... here taken from Z1 or RD-PQ... forgotten which one... but after 4000 MB stops:
Code:
sh-4.1# dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/FULLdump.bin
dd: writing to `/sdcard/FULLdump.bin': Die Datei ist zu gro+ƒ
8388608+0 records in
8388607+1 records out
4294967295 bytes (4,3 GB) copied, 444,287 s, 9,7 MB/s
You could dump less... but if your SD card is big enough...
In Z1 dump I can find text string ODIN after 35 MB... so sboot.bin is inside first 40 MB....
No idea if also in Z3 same location...
Will try to find PIT... all I can remember... TM1/Z3 has 1 partition more...
Best Regards

Little description v1 of Retail Z300 Firmware
Code:
csc.img-------------->CSC
dzImage-------------->Kernel
dzImage-recovery----->Kernel for Recovery Mode
modules.img----------> ?
nvitem.bin-----------> "NVitems"... "config"
ramdisk-recovery.img->RAMdisk for Recovery Kernel
ramdisk.img---------->RAMdisk for Kernel
rootfs.img----------->Filesystem
[COLOR="Red"][B]sboot.bin------------>Bootloader aka SBOOT
spl.img-------------->Bootloader[/B][/COLOR]
SPRDCP.img----------->MODEM (CP)
SPRDDSP.img---------->MODEM (CP) related
Red marked stuff is Bootloader related... risky if something goes wrong...

Can Z3 firmware be compatible with RD-PQ device?

NO!
Different Hardware.
Different Bootloader, different partitions, filename convention, many huge differences.
If you have RD-PQ... you could update to 2.3.1 Binary with lthor...
Best Regards

No. This is ONLY compatible with the Z3 SM-Z300H.

I've installed 2.3.1 to RD-PQ.
It can load, Wi-Fi doesn't work, All apps are gone and many other glitches 8)

I have RD-PQ since few days... with 2.2...
I will try to use my Notebooks this year to update to 2.3.1... and see self...
I have no idea... maybe you have chance to got SM-Z300F:
http://www.tizenexperts.com/2015/10/video-russian-samsung-z3-sm-z3000f-gets-reviewed/
I have no idea if RD-PQ will see 2.4 Firmware...
Sorry.
But I am 99,9 % sure SM-Z300H and TM1 Firmware are incompatible with RD-PQ.
If you unpack/extract Firmware package you shoud see why...
Z3 Firmwarepackages contains all Bootloaders accept PIT file...
Why Bootloaders should be ready for RD-PQ aka GT-I9300?
Or Kernel?
Why 1 Kernel supports more then 1 device?
RD-PQ is old...
2 years + older as Z3...
I9300 and/or RD-PQ Hardware is cool enough... :good:
...but why should commercial Developers like Samsung concentrate on old Hardware...
See, I love RD-PQ/I9300:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2482563
I wished support never ends... but this is an dream.
Little example from now.
TM1 devices have Firmware from July... with beta 2.4
On RTL you can see SM-ZTM1 called devices with september Firmware...
And since Z300 + Firmware is avaliable...
We know that minimum 2 compiled Firmware from October exists... and Tizen API is on Z3 2.4.0.1
I have no idea, if TM1 will get Firmwareupdate...
Best Regards

I'm not complaining Just sharing my observations Tizen 2.3.1
If Samsung issued a ready Tizen phone I expected new firmware is more stable and usable.
And I got that Z3 firmware is incompatible.

Samsung Z3 gets second software / firmware update in India – Z300HODD0AOK1
http://www.tizenexperts.com/2015/11...tware-firmware-update-in-india-z300hodd0aok1/

new update
Z300HDDU0BOL2

BOL2 now also via Kies3 available...
and here for ODIN:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-Z300H
Tizen version increased... 2.4.0.2...

any change list?

Maybe new Tizen version inside...
2.4.0.3
Sorry, joke...
Maybe I will download Full BOL4 ... and try to find something...
Tizen Store Version changed ?
BOL2 is 1.4.1
In theory it would be much easier... to catch the TAR file... look inside...
Then you could see which files changed...
Example from Z1...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59881027&postcount=120
Code:
delta.csc
delta.kernel
delta.modem
delta.ramdisk
delta.recovery
delta.rootfs
delta.ua
nvitem.bin
[B]sboot.bin[/B]
update.cfg
sboot.bin is for instance ever FULL Binary...
So for Z3 you can be sure... 1500 KB (50 %) from this FOTA (3,6 MB) update is Bootloader.
If someone could provide please the info...
I need only filename of Z3 FOTA Binary..
Something like
12345.bin
You could easily find this info in Logfile... after FOTA update...
Maybe someone could tell me please in private... PM...
I need not the full link... only Filename.
Than in advance.
I can not try self... no Z3...
Best Regards

same 1.4.1 at tizen store.
i dont have the update bin..sorry

Code:
Z300HDDU0BPB2
Z300HDDU0BOK3
Z300HODD0BPB2
Should be availble now...
Best Regards

yeap updated

Code:
Z300HDDU0BPC5
Z300HDDU0BPB7
Z300HODD0BPC5
Available via FOTA...
Not tested nor idea yet...

[ICS] update's link

Found this URL, supposed to be the ICS update for US tablets :
http://info.update.sony.net/ST002/nbx03_001/contents/0014/signed-nbx03_001-ota-120410004.zip
Maybe there's something to do with it if it's the real one.
I think of disabling or deleting the region check in the "installation" script embedded in the zip before rooting, signing and flashing with Condi's tool. This may avoid the tablet's region changing.
Maybe it can help bricked devices owners, if they can find a way to push a modded build.prop to their tablet with adb from the only working recovery mode and then ask for an update from sd card.
Hope so...
PS
Can't do any testing myself, I'm still in HC 3.2.1 (France) and still not rooted (kernel #10)

Oh... Must have think of it
And what about disabling the region check in the zip's install script rather than changing tablet's region ? It may be easier to do and may give us a kind of universal zip leading to US tablets without any care of their original region...
Could someone explain how I can find such a link for a new firmware e.g for Germany?
How did you find or get this link Condi?

This can be done I'm in the middle of v2.8, its ready in 3/4.
Gonna try to create some script which will disable region thing from update-script. Very good idea Sometimes the simple is the best
The update still got to have proper entry to every region - gonna make universal one for all the regions I've got
Goood, very gooooooood
I've found that working on tab in garden is very niceeee
edit---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'have just made universal fw file for (I think all of) combinations/variants of the region - 1000 of possibilities
Now all you will gonna need is to use _hack_recovery and custom zip.
But wait a minute - hmm... we've got 2 versions of _hack_recovery and we still gonna need
to have device with region which is directly supported, or still change region if there is any other.
Its becoming pointless I think.. the script already adds region code to detailedSKU.lst file,
which is check in recovery for the region.
All we can do for now is to completly cut off region updating from update-script,
but in order to flash custom zip device still needs to have hackable region.
If I could take a look on a recovery.log of just bricked device (with corrupted region),
then I could make 100% safe solution..

Also maybe it would be a good idea to include in scripts some checks that find out what region an user has on his tablet and - on this basis - the script will make a proper update file...
I mean: it would be maybe better for script to check the region currently on the tablet than leave users with the prompt for choosing their region, manually...

Take a look into AiO script - its does exactly making what you have written.
1) if region needs to be temporarly changed - then it makes update thinks that its upgrading for example US region - but its already replaced correct region.
for example you've got GERMAN region before flash - use custom zip, script changes temporarly to US to get through update which updates GERMAN region!
Code:
copy backups\region.zip tmp\27550199\region.zip
So its already done. Look guys at some users posts - obicom wrote that he has german region.zip and US vendor.prop. Region changing works just great. Only some I think 'different revision' devices got problems with it. Or its a user mistake.

[Q] Problems updating Hyundai T7s tablet to jelly bean 4.2 (official rom)

Hi all,
I'm encountering some problems when i'm trying to update my Hyundai T7S tablet to the official jelly bean 4.2 ROM.
I've the update from the Hyundai website (hyundai-digital .cn). This download comes in a .rar file. I knew it would be impossible, but tried anyway to flash this file from the SD-card. But to make it work this way, the update should be a .zip-file.
In the .rar file are 15 files, some of them are .bin and .img files. And I've not the knowledge what I can do with these files. Unfortunately the support guide of Hyundai can not be opened and two hours googling didn't help me out. So here's my question:
Is it possible to convert the .rar file into a .zip file and flesh this file? Or can I flash the rar-file in some way?
Thanks!
ps. i had the full links copied in my message, but since this is my first post, i cannot post links. Sorry for that!

Extract all files in zip to SD card (ext.). Power OFF. Press Volume - and Power and update will start. Looks like you use Volume + not - witch takes you to recovery mode. When done tablet will turn OFF. Power ON and you should have new firmware.
You are talking about "HYUNDAI T7S-20130318" ?....if yes it is not 4.2 is still 4.0.4; If you found a most recent one (4.2), can you email me with download link please ?....I can't find 4.2 for T7(S). Thank you !
I think 4.2 is not yet aivailable at all.

Here is some link: http://www.hyundai-digital.cn/Download.asp?ClassID=1
In the section HYUNDAI T7S-20130318, there is something about Android 4.2
Can someone confirm this? If it is 4.2 I am buying this tablet right now .)
I believe it is, but I only got mine yesterday, not even rooted it yet.
Google translation:
The latest firmware of modern flat panel HYUNDAI T7S-20130318
HYUNDAI T7S firmware instructions
1 running memory 2GB storage memory 16GB
2 rear camera front 300,000 5,000,000 with flash
3 the system Android4.0.4 behind will update Android4.2 system (do please look forward)
The website says it is 4.0.4, and will update to 4.2 in the future.
Can anyone tell me know to root this device? I tried Exynos abuse, it does not work.

exactly. even though some sites advertise it as a 4.2 device, the latest available stable fw is still the 4.0.4 from the 18th of March.
I just tried exynos abuse 1.4 about 2 hours ago on my t7s and it worked like a charm.
Waiting for 4.2 too
Another T7S user here, waiting for 4.2, too. Is there something wrong with the website? When I visit http://www.hyundai-digital.cn/ it tells me:
bad requesta (invalid hostname)
I copy/pasted it, and yes, it's "requesta". I don't know what's going on with that D:

from what i've read (some weeks ago): the main hyundai company has told that branch producing the tablets not to manufacture devices to be exported from china, so they're cutting the rest of the world off their official site --> you'll be able to reach the webpage via a chinese proxy (as if you're browsing from china).
about the update for which we're all waiting for: last time it was told to be released in 2013 june, so i still haven't given up yet. anyway: just search for "slatedroid" on the internet if you'd like to get updates about the tablet in english

Another possibility could be porting CyanogenMod OR buying a tablet to a developer. We already have CM for the same SoC, so I think about xplodwild or codeworkx, the two main i9300 maintainers

That would be great!
This tablet will literally fly with CM.
How can I ask to a developer to port to this device? Is it there a specific forum? Or just pm them?

Well that'd then be the reason why the 4.2 ROM for the rest of the world is now available to download through MediaFire rather than an official Hyundai page.
For those who haven't found it yet, this post on the GeekBuying blog details the download and installation of the 4.2.2 upgrade.
I'm in the process of downloading the 222Mb archive now; going rather slow which is nothing new for MediaFire.

tizen to android port for gear 2

I'm looking at making a port of any android version to the gear 2 replacing the tizen os. I don't have a lot of experience in development. And have struggled to follow or find any guides on the matter.
Is anyone currently working on this
And want some help with graphic design. Or beta testing
Or would anyone help me start a port of my own
I have the gear 1 with the null custom rom
And my gear 2 is rooted
Also I have a kali Linux Vm
And all the SDK perquisites for Windows 8. But I also have an xp machine and a windows 7 machine
I've been waiting ever since I got my gear 2 for an android port searching almost daily for any news. But so far . Nothing
LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN
One major thing to solve is, how to replace OS...
So you need to know how your Gear is working...
How to dump memory...
How Bootloader is working...
How to change Firmware etc...
Is Bootloader secured...
Is Bootloader modifiable...
Check the other Gears... with other direction...
From Android to Tizen...
What is changed, what is same...
Is Gear JTAG enabled?
ADB and or SDB knowledge...
Tools...
Etc...
Good Luck.
Best Regards
Edit 1.
I mean here...
Galaxy Gear (SM-V700)
Before Android... have Tizen update...
How they did it?
Is Bootloader changed or whole Gear is lowest secured and you can execute every Linux Kernel you want...
V700XXUCNF1_V700OXACNF1_DBT.zip
If I check this upgrade... then I can see Bootloader inside.
sboot.bin
sboot.bin now contain text string Tizen....
So I think this is Tizen Bootloader...
I can see also zImage.bin
No idea how low protection/security of V700 Bootloader is...
Maybe it would be enough to compile proper kernel/zImage...
No idea if for V700 custom kernels exists...
If I have some time...
I will try to check Gear 2 files...
Maybe same strong or weak protection...
Maybe not zImage used but the Tizen kernel... uImage.bin

Can't find Gear related source code...

If SM-R380 means Gear 2...
Good idea is to compare SM-V700 with SM-R380 Hardware...
Maybe same CPU?
Then maybe Bootloader sboot.bin... dangerous to try.

Code:
Exynos 4212
Seems not equal... not confirmed...

Edit 1.
Searching for text string:
Exynos
...delivers results in sboot.bin
EXYNOS3250
or
EXYNOS_4212
So infos could be true...
No idea if sboot.bin is compatible between these 2 models....
This info is funny:

Someone in the custom rom thread for the Gear 1 that was released yesterday, had reported it worked on his Gear 2. I asked if it was a typo, and he replied and said that the settings for sounds was the only thing not working. If it booted up for him it may run on the same tizen kernel. So the CPU's may be somewhat compatible. If the person isn't lying....lol.

i guess its 4.2.2

Discontinued.. the rom seems to be of i8558 and not i8552...thanks for all those who tested it..
A guy on facebook pasted a link and was asking if v could c if its really 4.2.2 ... currently i cant download such a big file so can any1 of u can just check if its 4.2.2:laugh::good:
>>>Credits for link---- Jesus Jake Estadilla
i am downloading and will report on this, dont know if ill flash it though.
ps, googling "CHM-I8552ZMUAMK1" sent me in to some pages reporting it to be for GT-I8558, which officially has 4.2
EDIT: CHM-I8552ZMUAMK1 seems from China Mobile, where as there is another 4.2.2 version from India, which is INS-I8552XXANA5, downloading both now, will mirror in mega probably.
If possible plz upload to pcloud...
Sent from my GT-I8552 using XDA Free mobile app
I am uploading three packages right now, the two suspicious 4.2.2 and the latest 4.1.2 (just in case, havent seen mirrors around)
CHM-I8552ZMUAMK1-4.2.2 - Multi Package
BOOTLOADER_I8558ZMUAMK1_2048505_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

MODEM_I8558ZMUAMK1_2048505_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
INS-I8552XXANA5-4.2.2 - One Package
I8552XXANA5_I8552ODDANB3_I8552DDAMI1_HOME.tar.md5
the indian one package seems way too fishy, searching the name strings shows a similar name release for JB 4.1.2...dont kill me for that, just downloaded and repackaged everything from the baidu stuff in china.
EDIT: how similar is 8558 with 8552? anyone knows this?
Porting of Android 4.2.2 from different carrier.
Unfortunately it's the same 4.1.2 build.
Here is the sammy link check out:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=33961
And as we are talking about the i8558 is already based on android 4.2.2. I think any of the developers could port it for having the same hardware and even the specifications.
Here is the link for its latest build :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=32288
Good thinking, i tried to get the 8558 in samsung-updates.com but it didnt show up.
I'll download MG1 as well, seems newer then the leaked one, and as you can see on the MK1 multi package file names, they all have 8558 in the naming conventions.
is there any report for the phones having cross compatible roms? cause my phones name is Galaxy Win Duos (not quattro), but it shows 8552.
EDIT: here's the mirror of your first initial link you've posted. I'll try to find a link for MG1 as well, i cant see the link in sammobile.
I8552ZMUAMK1
and latest JB 4.1.2 in case anyone wants it:
I8552XXANH4
Galaxy Win Duos is an alternative name for Galaxy Grand Quattro. It depends of the country.
And about the rom: it was tested? I will flash it later to see if it is 4.2.2.

not sure if it'll work though, i've just found another thread like this in our Win/Quattro community...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680287
most of the devs seem CM or kernel oriented, i doubt we will ever see any port of this if it doesnt work out of the box.
anyway, im am downloading MG1, so dont bother flashing MK1, i will upload it ASAP at pcloud.
EDIT: no company can confuse the sh!t out of ur soul then sammy...
it is so hard to tell which one is the latest now, while replying the above posts, i've noticed that MK1 should be way above MG1, yet MG1 has a newer build date then MK1, where as the first firmware ever released was MI1, which means highest PDA value. WTF??? Check the attachment for the ROM order in sammobile.

According to Sammobile, MG1 is newer then MK1. Alphabetically it shouldnt, but MG1 is 2014 where as MK1 is 2013.
Here's the mirror for MG1 as well, this one is a single package:
I8558ZMUANG1_I8558CHMANG1_CHM

That's because it is, actually, NG1, not MG1. So it goes later.
I am downloading right now, soon I will flash it.
EDIT 1: Odin refuses to flash the package of first post's link. The progress meter don't increase. I am downloading now an package of Sammobile to try again.
EDIT 2: The package of Sammobile was refused too. A CWM-flashable zip may work.
If someone create a flashable zip, I test. I don't know how to make one from stock rom.
Oh, it is NG1, thanks for noting that, i wouldve never noticed it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149123
Juat found this Odin to Zip guide...
I will try this, but I am not sure if it works. Android Kitchen can create a flashable zip, but it needs to be configured for our device and I don't know how to do it.
Anyway, I will try the link.
I used this link to do some changes on the script:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-quattro/development/info-win-grand-quattro-partition-t2792496
I changed the /system partition to mmcblk0p21.
EDIT 1: I just prepared the zip, I'm going to flash it right now.
EDIT 2: Flashed it successfully, but didn't boot. I'm going to change the kernel to see if it works.
EDIT 3: Doesn't boot. The rom need to be ported.
made an inquiry myself Here, but i looks like u got all the info needed.
too bad , both sammy and community seem to ignore this device pretty well
Newest i8558 rom. http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3l5YxZ
Baidu links outside china are useless. Besides, ur link seems to have only Odin and a couple of other tools, no rom there.
I'd advise everyone to ignore this thread, ofc except devs who could port this since it's 99% our phone.
nope
the GT-I8552 is still on 4.1.2 JB !!!!
When i did live chat with samsung guys, they said there would be update to 4.4.2 but there is no official date yet.
Srivathsa . :
i wanted to know why there is no software update for galaxy grand quattro. and it's still in 4.1.2?
Pragati :
Surely, I will help you in this regard.
Srivathsa . :
while all other manufacturers are providing updates for their mobiles
Srivathsa . :
why samsung is not keen to update it?
Pragati :
We would like to inform you that feedback to release a firmware update for Model No GT-I8552 has already been sent to our department concerned.
Pragati :
They are in the process of developing the same; however, as of now there is no official release date available with us.
Pragati :
Also, your Samsung handset comes with a feature which will automatically inform you about any new firmware release provided it’s connected to Internet.
Srivathsa . :
ok..do you know what release they would be updating to?
Srivathsa . :
is it 4.4 or 4.2?
Pragati :
As of now there is no official information on the release date of the next Android 4.4.2 for Galaxy Quattro(Gt-I8552) in India from Samsung and you will be notified by the Samsung website when/if the update is released.

"Drivers"?

I have a tablet which can't find the firmware, and trying to develop the mine.
I was reading tutorials and information that find and some well have some questions.
I downloaded a firmware with Android 4.4.2, "installed" and runs good, except that:
Don't works WiFi
Don't works Cameras
Don't have Phone app, i assume that no detect the "3g"
I do not know as they are known the "drivers", are obtained or how are modified.
Upon installation of the firmware, using a computer mechanism, successfully extracted, from the gadget unchanged, with Android 4.4.4, the files:
boot.img
bootloader.img
data.tgz
recovery.img
system.img
system.tgz
Any information that is useful to the case, do not hesitate to ask.
From already thanks and hope, apologize for the lack of appropriate language.
