Great work, I hope it might help some unexperienced users!

@Lanchon, thank you for the awesome work and support for the SGS2.
Regards.

@Lanchon I think I asked this in the cm13 thread, but this can still be used on a S2 gt-9100 on cm12.1 in preparation for switching to cm13?

the only requirement is that you are running twrp. doesnt matter which os.

@Lanchon
Great that you finished your testing and published your script. I was courious already from the day you first announced to work on it. Would have loved such an easy way back then, when I repitted my two i9100 phones.
And as it seems to be 100% Noob-friendly, they will love it, too.
Once more: amazing work! Thank you in the name of all here, that now can simply link to your scripts instead of answering million questions about how to pit.

Nice one @Lanchon thank you for the great tool! Though I'm used to repart my i9100 over Odin. This will make a lot more easier since no need for triangleaway for this one.
I would just like to suggest to give us an option for reverting to stock partition or is "lanchon-repit-v0.1-sys1GB-i9100.zip" the stock one?
Keep the updates coming! Though our i9100 is already 5 years old already, MM OS still works because of your consistent support and contribution with the CM team.

I really want to test can you attach stock pit I'm still on custom pitted by Odin

thanks. stock is not very useful. you can switch among 4GB and 6GB data to test.

Very nice, but putting the zip in tmp and wiping all the partitions was the only way make this script work. No way from externalSD for me.

thank you! stock is not very useful and i really have very little time. v0.1 is released just to help people through their upgrade to CM13. i don't want to proliferate files for each and every taste, that's not the proper solution. i rather do it the right way.

thanks. why would wiping be "the only way" and why there would be "no way" to run from external sd?? there was a VERY detailed log that explained what went wrong if anything. without that info the "no ways" don't really help in any way. and which script and what were you trying to do in the first place?? you don't even say that. i can tell you there was definitely "yes way" the tool would run without wiping all partitions. maybe you had some corruption in one of the partitions, who knows without the log.

Coming from markox 12.1 ROM then full wipe and install AICP MM ROM, gapps, and recovery-Lanchon-Isorec-CM-6.0.5.1. To my surprise my /data is back to 2 GB so I rebooed to recovery and flashed lanchon-repit-v0.1-sys1GB-data4GB-i9100.zip but there's an error:

Sorry, no log, at 3am (time of flash) i wasn't totally lucid. For the external sdcard it was about the mount point of the card (common busy error). Without full wipe I remember a loop while polling system partition to read partition info, maybe related to a corrupted FS, because I recently got some reboot while tweaking the phone.

Hi!
Lanchon, first: thank you so much for this great effort!
I was always thinking about how it must be possible to resize partitions instead of just wiping them and start from scratch. But I was lacking the deeper knowledge to realize such a thing without losing data / messing up my phone.
I have a question though: I formatted my sdcard with ext4 a while ago.
Does your tool take care of this?
Thanks!

Hi @Lanchon thank you for this, this will save a great deal of effort. One question, do I untick 'Only mount system read-only' box or does that not matter?

Doesn't boot. Just spinning logo forever. Didn't have time to see if ADB was on to try to get a logcat. Will try later.

I had been keeping an eye on his i9100 thread and the jist was to flash the latest CM nightly to have the newest recovery then reboot recovery and flash Waylands CM11 like normal.
Thanks Wayland, I am glad you have decided to help us out as well!
Also I just tested using the steps from the i9100 thread and still just get the CM boot logo. Nothing I did could get past it. I could however restore a Nandroid I had just made so no harm done.
Kind Regards,

It doesnt boot for me too I would like to help with a logcat but the usb port dont work on my phone
Thanks anyway!

I will try again later today and provide a Log when I get back home
Logcat
I could not get past the CM boot logo so I could not provide a log at. If there is another way to get one for you then please let me know so I can do so.
Kind Regards

I tried my best to get my phone to spit out a logcat because my phone also would not boot, it just sat at the splash screen. But, alas, I could not figure out how to get my device to not show offline. I know how to do it when Android is running, but not like that. BUTTTT, if someone can explain to me how to make the phone go "online" for adb during boot, I can pull a logcat, and would be more than grateful to do so, because im dying to try KitKat. Keep up the good work!
fastboot?
Is there no way to put the phone into fast boot mode and get a logcat that way? Would give it a try myself but my comp is on the fritz.

This might be a long shot, but I think it requires you to have CWM 6.0.4.3 and higher to install correctly. You might double check your current version.
My CWM version was 6.0.4.5 and it doesnt boot. So theres may be a problem that only a logcat could show..

Wayland said he would be taking another look at CM11 and our phone tomorrow. Just so you guys know.
Read on the i9100 forum before that someone who couldn't it to boot the normal way got it to work by just flashing CWM and not CM10.2. Tried that and no luck here.

Could it be an incompatible kernel issue? I know on the lg optimus zip and galaxy precedent (both straight talk phones with dev support from another forum) we had to enable sd-ext before cm would work. Not sure if that's the case here or not just a suggestion.
Wish I had internet to set up my build environment.
I have been watching the i9100 thread and have e been trying everything that has worked there but to no avail. I have been wanting to compile cm11 but have not had the time to do so. Wayland, most likely, will need to make some minor change but since he does not own our phone so we will need to be patient. I told him I would volunteer to test if need be.

If needed I have a spare s2 I can use for dev purposes however I'm not on the i777 but the s959g(straight talk) Vasily the same but minor software differences. I can be reached at [email protected] a lot easier then I can on this thread if y'all need any assistance.
I have been working on 4.4 for the i777 and getting CM11 to work right, I found that some people had to do ANOTHER Wipe data/factory reset AFTER flashing the rom and gapps. This is what has to be done on the CM11 rom I ported to the i777 to make it work. Just thought I would share.
Would you happen to know what is not working on this ROM? Any bugs you have found? Thanks.

Doesn't work. Not only that but now I can't go back to cm 10.2 after flashing this. I'd advise everyone to stay away from this port until its 100℅ bootable. If you try to go back you end up with status 7 error.

Cynogenmod 11

So guys, I have finally rooted my s3 (international version) after the warranty expired a week ago.
Have installed CWM and am in a search of ROM for it now.
For now I have decided to flash CM 11, but have few doubts about it:
Should I install m9 snapshot or m10 snapshot? I read it on reddit that m10 is not stable, so should I go for m9 instead for now?
And the zip file from their official site is around 212 MB, so does this zip file contain gaaps? If no, then where can I find the gaaps file for cm 11 m9 snapshot version?
I am kinda new to these things so sorry for being so noob.
And since I am flashing a rom for the first time, do I need to do anything else other than these steps:
1. Backup current rom using recovery.
2. Copy the zip file of the cm 11 rom in SD card.
3. Reboot into recovery, clear data, clear cache and clear dalvik cache.
4. Flash rom and gaaps(if not included in rom).
Any help regarding the above post

Only stock roms come with gapps.
You need to do some reading before you start playing.

I have actually read a lot about it, have done all the prerequisite steps (nandroid backup, efs folder backup etc), have downloaded cm 11 m9 and gaaps for it, now the only thing that is stopping me from flashing is rootSU post here which says:
"Note that Cyanogenmod is very controversial for the international version of the S3, there are technical issues, and newer stable version is always behind, I would NOT go for Cyanogenmod at the moment.."
So should i go ahead and flash cm 11? What do you guys suggest. I know i am being too preventive but this is my first time so i think this is understandable.

That was made 2 years ago. Ignore that and flash cm if you want to give it a try. Countless number of us use it no problems. If you don't like it you can always flash something else.
Thank you for your reply. So alright I will flash cm now, and will keep you updated about my experience of flashing my first rom. Lol.

To OP
Its funny how I am in the Exact same postion as you. I have CRM recovery and thinking about CM, I have downloaded the Snapshot. verison and hopefully will be flashing my first ever ROM today or tomorrow. Let me know how it goes for you please
DARK - Can i ask which CM verison and build are you CURRENLTY using? and how do you find it?
and quick question.
I see in some youtube vidoes ( I understand we wipe cache/dalvik/partion) but some people do something like Mount/ system thingy? Do I HAVE TO do that? as some vidoes DON'T do it?
Thank You

Have successfully flashed CM 11 M9 snapshot, and everything is good as of now.
And I also didn't mount anything, just follow the simple steps ( wipe data, cache, dalvik cache, flash rom and gaaps), and everything should go fine.

tHANKS How much FREE RAM do you get in CM11 Snapshot.
I will be doing the EXACT Same thing as you today or tomorow .
but I have a question , I'm stuck
How did you BACK UP your EFS folder/file?
I cant back it up suing the APP KTool Hack?
There is not much difference in free ram, but that should not be a problem I guess.
And for tha efs I actually used a app called Samsung tool (there is thread here on xda, go ahead and search it, else I will provide you tha link once I get on pc.) But after I read about k-tool, I even used it to backup it again and it worked for me fine. So you can try Samsung tools or may be some expert can help you in this regard.

Hey!!!!!! THANKS!!!
I USED Samsung TOOL
I JUST PUT THE FIRST EVER ROM ON MY PHONE!!!!!!
IT WORKS!!! :d
Im so happy I didn't screw anything lol!!!
How are you finding it?
only 1 stupid thing I got charged for a GPS because my phone automatic used mobile data!
CM11 Snapshot, is like Normal Stock Andriod. Has a few new things? like DPS and some terminal setting - Not sure.
It felt a bit laggy ,first but then speeded up.
WAHOOOO I GOT KITKAT!!!
Lol nice.
For me it wasn't laggy at all, buttery smotth. And yes as of now I haven't found any drastic changes, although haven't used phone much after updating but still I don't think my battery life is gonna improve :/ So most probably would be dead soon, will have to research on it though but thats out of topic now
Android operates differently to windows so the theory about free ram doesn't apply here.

[ROM] [TW] SM-G900T_PG2 Rooted Deodexed

G900TUVS1GPG2
Rooted Deodexed BusyBox Init.d
Hi all, just wanted to share a little project i've been working on. Its the latest release for the T-mobile S5 G900T, rooted busybox deodexed and init.d support. I'm am totally new to the process of kitchens and making roms. This is my first release on this project and will release debloated and other combinations as i have time. Please enjoy and report any issues. I will try my best to help in any way.
Now for the rom and instructions.
Typical disclaimer as always, I am not responsible for any damaged caused by flashing custom software period. If you have gotten this far then you completely understand the risks involved with "flashing" custom software (ROMs). Flashing this ROM will void your warranty and trip knox.
Again this is for the T-mobile S5 G900T. Stock for the most part. Its rooted busybox deodexed and init.d support. I have replaced the stock kernel with The Imperius Curse Kernel 6-20 by @ShinySide. Edited homescreen pages. There is only one Homescreen page by default. If you need screens and widgets just add them. Removed NFC icon and removed sfinder and quick connect from pulldown menu. International Boot animation and sound. All apps in system/app & system/priv-app updated as of 7/23/2016.
You need custom recovery installed to proceed. I use TWRP, have not tested on CWM.
You need to be on a 6.0.1 bootloader! I tested on the PE1 bootloader and had no issues but i recommend a full update to PG2.
EDIT Odin flashable PG2 bootloader and Modem tar download link below
If you do not have a custom recovery installed then please go herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/general/root-how-to-root-sm-g900t-firmware-t3358190 then continue below.
Download ROM and move to root storage of phone. ExtSDcard or internal sd
Reboot to TWRP and tap wipe then advanced wipe and check boxes 'Dalvik/ ART cache' 'System' 'Data' and 'Cache' then swipe to wipe. Do this 3 times just to be safe. If you moved the rom to phone storage DO NOT WIPE Internal storage as you will delete the rom you just downloaded.
Go back to the main menu in TWRP and tap install, choose rom and swipe to install.
After install is complete reboot and wait around 15 minutes for boot to complete.

I have strange problem with this ROM, hope anyone can help. After installation, I can't use adb any more. "adb devices" shows the devices is unauthorized, and under "Developer options", there is no button for "Revoke USB debugging authorizations". There is also no USB key fingerprint confirmation window.
Is it just me or the ROM?

It's actually a Kernel issue and not sure ito has been updated. Flashing another kernel will fix your issue. I will update the op and possibly link another kernel.

Be updated soon though. Have the source to G2, and for some reason Samsung supplied their own toolchain in the source (which I've never seen) so been screwing around with it.

I've been looking into how to make a bootloader/modem flashable thru Odin but can't find any reliable up to date guides. If anyone knows where I might look to start I'm very sure I could make it, just need guidelines on how to begin.

Everything except system.img, cache.img, boot.img and recovery.img. So full upgrade beside those 4 items.

Leave some posts so I know it works OK, I'm new to this
It would be good if someone could post if this rom was ok, as have a T825 rom built with the same method that I cannot test, due to having a T820 myself. So speak up please
Thank you for this. Now I have to ask a couple of newbie questions. I've been exclusively in the Sony Xperia and Nexus worlds before, this being my first Samsung. In trying to figure out if the processes I've become familiar with are applicable to this device, using your ROM.
For instance, my Sony's were pretty easy after the initial root. Kind souls in the community took new releases and created a pre-rooted firmware with TWRP and SuperSU built-in. I could then just dirty flash the ROM from TWRP, sometimes wiping cache/dalvic, and like magic my device is upgraded with no loss of data.
Is this how it works with this AQF5 ROM? I'm starting with a rooted (@ashyx method) T820 with AQBB. Do I just download the rooted ROM to SD card, boot to TWRP, dirty flash and go?
Thanks again!
Hi,
Dirty flash should work, sometimes I try that first and if I get any strange behaviour, do a wipe and re flash then load the rest back with titanium backup. Make sure you have all your backups organised first before starting.
Let me know how it works out. The risk with the first option is something residual being left that may result in force closes or just defeating the purpose.
Just beware if for some reason it doesn't root DM verity will occur and you will be forced to format internal data so back that up to your external card too, before, just in case, shouldn't happen though. I have no idea how many others have used this yet as there have been no replies to say all ok

Not sure I can use this ROM in Germany, what kind of modifications are made? Would love to see some development
As long as you have the same model T-820 you can, some local variants have a local customisation but it's likely to be minor with this model. From memory when I set it up on mine all common languages were available, if that's your concern, make sure you have a twrp backup and you can always roll back
The only mods were as listed above, seems slightly quicker, perhaps the zip aligning, but it will allow more mods as they come along
Will flashing this trip the knox counter?

I have always wondered about that. Flashing a base from another country. Like I live in the US so I always have flashed USA versions. You are
saying that I CAN flash this Korean version on my T-820 phone and have all working ok with English ?
Thank you

For the record, I don't live in the us but bought mine from best buys whilst there, it was rooted within a couple of hours from memory,..... can't help myself ?.
I Flashed a firmware from another country after that,, just because it was a later series, can't remember which.
I use the Tweaked one as my daily driver, people seem to be finding that good. I have found the latest firmware now seems to carry out a full wipe, and I haven't managed to flash a rom over it yet, so reverted back to the Tweaked version I have.
It may require an update to TWRP
If you have any problems restore your backup, if you want to persist flash the firmware that its based on first,AQF5, then flash the ROM over it, with our without wipe.

Thanks,
This rom is not being developed any more,but the tweaked version in this forum, is based off the stock firmware which came after this,it runs stable, has a few enhancements and being a later base it's got a number of Samsung security updates too.
Would this thread be applicable to a Wi-Fi only S3 model "SM-T820NZKAXAR" ?

After 10 years of the same answer its still YES...rooting always trips..

[RECOVERY] TWRP 3.3.1-0 For P580 OREO Compatible! [UNOFFICIAL]

The long wait has come to an end.
This TWRP was built for P580, I cannot ensure that it works on other variants, but it should work on P585, please test it and tell me.
Your warranty is now void and all that..
This TWRP is only compatible with oreo, due to some mess Sammy did with the bootloader, it works flawlessly on oreo roms, stock and custom!
Proofie
Enough talking, here is the DL link: https://mega.nz/#!MJFlyQ7L!AcEEkbvw7aGMGLnAU8OPEVxiBhfFjThHNTvqx8CMbxQ
Use odin, put this tar file in AP, flash and you're good to go [If you're on stock rom, don't let the device boot to system as it will kill TWRP, overwriting it with stock recovery]
Remember:
You won't have access to data if it is encrypted, you'll have to format data, on the wipe menu, at the side of "Advanced Wipe" there is "Format Data"
If you plan on using the stock rom, remember to disable DM-verity
Btw, if you plan to stay on stock rom, but you broke knox and want secure folder back, try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-smali-patcher-0-7-t3680053
Please come back and tell us if it worked! (I didn't make it to work on my debloated rom)
Thanks @marky_p for writing instructions on how to install
What is working:
Everything except samsung encryption, and any <8.1 rom
Built with P580KXU1CRJ7 source, on minimal manifest twrp, android-8.1.
Sources available:
Device tree: https://github.com/unknowwiiplayer/android_device_samsung_gtanotexlwifi
Kernel: https://github.com/unknowwiiplayer/kernel_samsung_exynos7870
Instructions on how to build are on device tree's readme.md
Now please powerful devs, bring lineage 17 to us, please!!!
Reserved, because reasons
I love you ? I will test it asap on the P580!
Dang, the touch bug ist still there
Thanks very much for your work. I'll test it on my P585Y. Hope you can port android 9/10 oneui rom and lineageOs for these devices too.
I've tested twrp on my Tab A P585Y. It worked but sometimes touch is laggy and cannot do swipe action. Thanks very much for your work. Hope the next version better
Installed it on my P580 has all touch problems That plagued all the other TWRPs for this tablet. So I guess I wrong about The fact all the other versions were based off of the android Marshmallow source code as being the cause of that. That set aside it seems to work great with Oreo!!! Greatjob!!!

Thanks a lot
i tried flashing first time round on P585y
Twrp - worked fine - bit buggy/laggy on the swipe
flashed No Verity Opt Encrypt 6.1
then got stuck in this endless loop of booting - wouldnt even get to the samsung screen (still have access to download mode and recovery mode usning the associated button combination)
so i re-flashed stock firmware
re-flashed twrp
flashed supersu
again got stuck in the same endless boot loop......
any help how can i solve this?
Tried again tonight after flashing firmware ,
exact steps
Developer Options unlock Oem and allow USB Debbugging
reboot download mode
install SuperSU using ZIP (actually RAR file... would this make difference?)
went back to TWRP home menu
Reboot System.... STUCK in BOOT LOOP (doesnt even get to Samsung section - only gets to "Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 with S PEN powered by Android Page")
have waited 7 minutes now - still suck...
am i doing something wrong? is it because im using a P585y (lTE model)
i have noticed some unable to mount /data errors at times.
do i need wipe? clear cache/davlik? if so when in the process.

I'm using p585y, but i dont see that error on my device. I think you should flash the latest firmware then flash twrp again.

Actually no, I hate OneUI, for me the current firmware is the pinnacle of Samsung experience, sorry
I do have some plans but I'm big noob and college will kill me if I focus on developing a ROM now :c
Okay, so I have SM P580 running 8.1. I can flash TWRP fine, but cannot flash anything after that without a bunch of errors!?!?
Thanks...

I think that I'd have to build it again for your model using the latest kernel sources for your device, but for now I'm busy with college's online classes
I left instructions on my github sources, you can give it a try on building your own TWRP, as I don't have your device, I cannot ensure that if I biuld it will work, but it should tho

did you wipe or did you format?, post some screenshots of the error, that way helping is a lot easier
