Hi All,
"fastboot erase all" command has erased the following partitions which are related to IMEI information :crying:
hob, dhob, fsc.
In 4.4.4 Kitkat kernel the above partitions were reflected at locations :
hob -- dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/hob
dhob -- dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/dhob
fsc -- dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fsc
In AOSP 5.1 Lollipop, i have found the below location where my motorola getvar variables reside .
imei -- proc/config/imei ----------------> which contains 3 files each of 0.0kb
If we found a way to change kernel to read "fastboot getvar imei" and write into path "/proc/config/imei" in 5.1 lollipop or "dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/hob" in 4.4.4 Kitkat,
Our biggest problem will be solved ..

The below mentioned paths:
dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/hob --- which will be unavailable from lollipop has nothing to do with IMEI as they have same files when we flash stock 4.4.4 firmware
proc/config/imei -- contains 3 files (ascii, *** , raw) each with 0.0 kb ---- which is of no use for us
proc/config/ -- have all the folders and files identical to unbricked and bricked phone --- again no use for us
I have found some files related to radio missing in "fastboot erase all" mobiles
{not sure whether these below files are missing after flashing Stock firmware but doesn't exist in PA custom rom}

Device in question, although likely not relevant to the issue I am having: Pixel 2 XL (Taimen). Let me know if there's any info I may have missed sharing that could help solve this.
My overarching goals here are:
1. Build vanilla AOSP "user" variant without root or any other additions
2. Sign the build with my own release keys
3. Be able to git-checkout release tags at a later time, build again, and produce OTA updates for this vanilla AOSP build
So far, I have been able to successfully build the latest release and flash it to my device using:
Code:
fastboot flashall
The device boots and runs as you would expect.
However, that is all using the test-key. I have followed the official documentation for generating release keys:
hxxps://source.android[.]com/devices/tech/ota/sign_builds#release-keys
The same documentation page provides the following listing for generating the release image:
Code:
make dist
./build/make/tools/releasetools/sign_target_files_apks \
-o \ # explained in the next section
--default_key_mappings ~/.android-certs out/dist/*-target_files-*.zip \
signed-target_files.zip
Apparently SignApk.jar doesn't work with password-encrypted keys (it throws an exception then swallows it which causes the whole thing to fail at a later point), and signing the APKs in the target files ZIP fails. Fine, I'm willing to use an unencrypted key for testing this project.
So I successfully get a signed-target_files.zip.
Lastly, the documentation provides the following for producing the release image:
Code:
./build/make/tools/releasetools/img_from_target_files signed-target-files.zip signed-img.zip
This also works successfully (minus the typo with the filename, switching the '_' character for '-'), so I use this to install:
Code:
fastboot update -w signed-img.zip
Then I get symptoms of the problem:
1. Warning that the bootloader is unlocked (fine)
2. White screen with "Google" logo
3. Reboot to bootloader
I never see the "android" splash screen after 2. like when I
Code:
fastboot flashall
to install the test-key version which does work.
So something else that I decided to try was to create an "unsigned-img.zip." I basically used img_from_target_files on the original, unsigned target_files.zip. and did a
Code:
fastboot update -w unsigned-img.zip
. This also booted successfully.
=====================
To recap:
1. Building is successful
2. "fastboot flashall" is successful
3. "fastboot update unsigned-img.zip" is successful
4. "fastboot update signed-img.zip" is NOT successful and always reboots back to the bootloader
Is there something I'm missing with regards to the image signing? If I'm doing this and having this issue on an unmodified AOSP branch, shouldn't everyone else be having these signing issues, as well?
Any help is appreciated.
It worked for me without -w argument:
Code:
fastboot update signed-img.zip

You can fix the bluetooth media audio disabling the A2DP offload in PHH settings, I have also experienced the battery drain issue on most GSIs, try to stick to AOSP as I haven't met any battery drain there.

To fix the Bluetooth connection problem, simply go to Settings/PHH Treble Settings/Misc Features and check the Force-disable A2DP offload option. Then, restart the phone.

thank for the direct linksssssss
Hi everyone, this is a short guide on how to flash a GSI on the A7 Lite (without TWRP).
Its a nice little tablet for the price but it doesn't have a very powerful SOC and for me the One UI is barely usable on this device. The launcher and the whole system UI feel extremely laggy, but apps generally run fine.
I tried phhusson's custom Android 12 GSI and the device was almost resurrected. Much much less UI lag and the battery life is the same as stock ROM. The only thing i found not working is MTP but i don't need it.
Since i saw a couple users here asking about GSIs i decided to make a very simple guide.
As always do this at your own risk. You may brick your device. You will void your warranty.
Follow the guide only if you know what your are doing. Read each step carefully and avoid copy pasting stuff randomly.
I won't go deep into details as i believe you should have some basic knowledge if you decide to do this.
The procedure sould work for both T220 and T225 (i tested it on a T220).
I did this on Windows using WSL for some of the steps.

- tar-md5-script-tool
Use the attached tar-md5-script-tool.zip
Steps
1. Extract official ROM files (BL, AP, CP, CSC)
2. Extract AP .tar.md5
3. Decompress the extracted super.img.lz4
Code:
lz4 -d super.img.lz4 super.img
4. Convert the sparse super.img
Code:
simg2img super.img super.ext4.img
5. Unpack super.ext4.img
Code:
lpunpack super.ext4.img
I got 4 partitions in my image (should be the same for all T220/T225 ROMs):
- odm.img
- product.img
- system.img
- vendor.img
6. Replace system.img with your GSI (rename it to system.img)
7. Get the size of all partitions and the size of the original super.ext4.img (not the sparse super.img)
Code:
stat -c '%n %s' IMG_FILE.img
8. Repack super.img
Code:
lpmake --metadata-size 65536 \
--super-name super \
--metadata-slots 2 \
--device super:ORIGINAL_SUPER_IMG_SIZE \
--group main:SUM_OF_ALL_PARTITIONS_SIZES \
--partition odm:readonly:ODM_PARTITION_SIZE:main \
--image odm=./odm.img \
--partition product:readonly:PRODUCT_PARTITION_SIZE:main \
--image product=./product.img \
--partition system:readonly:SYSTEM_PARTITION_SIZE:main \
--image system=./system.img \
--partition vendor:readonly:VENDOR_PARTITION_SIZE:main \
--image vendor=./vendor.img \
--sparse \
--output ./super_new.img
Replace ORIGINAL_SUPER_IMG_SIZE, SUM_OF_ALL_PARTITIONS_SIZES, ODM_PARTITION_SIZE, PRODUCT_PARTITION_SIZE, SYSTEM_PARTITION_SIZE, VENDOR_PARTITION_SIZE with the values you obtained in step 7.
Read lpmake docs for a more detailed expalation of the args used above:
partition_tools - platform/system/extras - Git at Google
9. Compress the repacked super_new.img
Code:
lz4 -B6 --content-size super_new.img super_new.img.lz4
10. Compress the clean vmbeta.img
Code:
lz4 -B6 --content-size vbmeta.img vbmeta.img.lz4
11. Extract tar-md5-script-tool.zip
12. Put all the *.img.lz4 files extracted from AP .tar.gz in tar-md5-script-tool dir
13. Replace super.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 in tar-md5-script-tool dir with your repacked and compressed super_new.img.lz4 (rename it to super.img.lz4) and the clean compressed vbmeta.img.lz4
14. Run batch.bat in tar-md5-script-tool dir
You will find the new AP .tar.md5 in the temp-folder subdir
15. Flash your custom AP .tar.md5 with Odin along with BL, CP, CSC from original ROM
16. Reboot into recovery and do a factory reset
17. Done

System lang is italian but should be easy to understand.
I found only a couple bugs so far in phhusson's GSI:
- in the launcher dragging apps from drawer to homescreen doesn't always work (just use another launcher)
- crashed once while searching in settings app
I use the tablet only for media consumption and some retrogaming, so there are probably other bugs i haven't noticed.
This is a generic guide, it won't include a "known issues" section since it largely depends on what GSI you choose.
I haven't tested this on the LTE version so i can't say for sure if mobile network works or not.
Unfortunately i don't have the time to make a custom ROM, test it and keep it updated here on the forum but maybe if there is enough interest someone will do it.
I hope other users will try to flash a GSI and share their experience here so we can gather some info on working/broken stuff, especially on the LTE model since i can't test that.
Hello,
I'm sorry but what am I missing here?
I'm a little fustrated cause after hours and hours of headaches I got to the second to last step which involves tar-md5-script-tool
I simply put all the .img.lz4 files from AP and replace super & vbmeta files which the ones that I converted and try to run the batch.bat as instructed.
However nothing happens and this is what the program spits out.
On the tar tool xda forum it says that it convers .img files, not .img.lz4 . Are we supposed to extract all the .img files from inside the .lz4 files?
I appreciate the guide but there are a lot of missing details I had to fill in and figure out myself, like the fact that from step 4 to step 8 you need to use WSL or a Linux distro (using simg2img for Windows messes things up so please use the one from otatools inside a linux bash)
Also for people that are not familiar with linux you need to type "./" in front of directed commands ( in this case ./simg2img ./lpunpack ./lpmake)
I'm not a developer or a programmer, maybe you wrote this guide for people more inclined to that, but for me this was pretty hard.
Noob here, but I'm running the "simg2img super.img super.ext4.img" and nothing happens for 5 min and when I'm aborting I'm getting a "Error reading sparse file header".
Any suggestions?

Are you using the Windows version of simg2img? If yes, use the one from otatools inside Windows Subsystem for Linux

I can confirm simg2img doesn't seem to work on Windows, i used WSL.
@ReubenMCSM i will update the guide with more details in the future but i don't have much time right now.
For you specific issue, try to use the attached tar-md5-script-tool.
Great thanks!
What's the process with tar-md5-script-tool? Just moving the super.img to the folder and running the batch.bat didn't work the output file in the temp folder is 11 kb. Tried to change super.img to super.tar but no change.
Thanks for the tool, but unfortunately the output is the same, like the problem @DanneSwe has
It looks like the batch.bat script from the tar md5 tool linked in the guide is a bit different from the one i used. I will update the guide.
Try again with the version i attached in the post above.
- Extract the AP tar md5 from official rom
- Copy all .img.lz4 files in the tar-md5-script-tool folder
- Replace super.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 (step 13)
- Launch batch.bat, output should look like this
- You will find AP_TAR_MD5_CUSTOM_FILE_ODIN.tar.md5 in temp-folder
It finally worked! I redid everything and also moved my folder to drive C instead of drive D, maybe this made the difference

What GSI did you pick and could you upload the files you flashed?
I got simg2img to work by using
.\simg2img -i super.img -o super.ext4.img
packed img filename: super.img
output img filename: super.ext4.img
Wrote "super.ext4.img"
The lpunpack and lpmake step isnt working for me ive been at this for days, no luck.
Can someone please help me out by uploading custom AP .tar.md5(file with GSI, the modded one) along with BL, CP, CSC from original ROM to google drive?
thanks!

I had the same issue. :/
Can someone help me with the T225 LTE model by compiling the AP please? Because for some reason the tar-md5-script tool isnt working for me
Thanks.
Successfully flashed GSI with magisk on my T220 following the OP's procedure. MTP is not working as the OP said. However, I can use my flash drive so I don't really miss MTP.
I chose "system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz" for GSI. "Treble Info" app can tell you what image would be compatible with your device.
If you want to use a different launcher like Nova instead of the default one, change the "Smallest width" setting from 600 to 598 in Developer options to hide the annoying taskbar.
AOSP-Mods and "Project Themer - Android 12+" work fine for me.
Here is my build for my device SM-T220 (SM-T220_EUX_T220XXU1AVE1):
GSI: system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz
Custom AP: https://www.filehosting.org/file/details/7045394/AP_TAR_MD5_CUSTOM_FILE_ODIN.tar.md5
Custom AP with Magisk patch: https://www.filehosting.org/file/details/7045714/magisk_patched-25101_cauJQ.tar
You can extract BL and Home_CSC from SM-T220_EUX_T220XXU1AVE1.
Notes: My device is actually SM-T220 XAR, but I have been updating it with SM-T220 EUX firmware versions without any issue.

Thanks.

Here is the custom AP based on the following. Since I don't have SM-T225 device, can't verify it. However, I compiled the AP the same way I did for my SM-T220.
- SM-T225_EUX_T225XXU1AUJ1
- GSI: system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz

For your information the current OS build on my tablet is INS with the baseband version of T225XXU1AVB2 and security patch of 1 Feb 2022 hope this helps you.

What GSI did you pick and could you upload the files you flashed?
I got simg2img to work by using
.\simg2img -i super.img -o super.ext4.img
packed img filename: super.img
output img filename: super.ext4.img
Wrote "super.ext4.img"

Use this ONLY on SM-T220 (without SIM card) and on EUX version.

Here is GSI build for SM-T225_INS_T225XXU1AVB2

So I have a few of these Kramer Panels which aren't supported anymore (The official webpage doesn't have them anymore but the same product here) and I want to wipe out the Kronomeet Software they got going on and install some other flavor of Android (I'm thinking Lineage OS).
To start I got adb and fastboot up and running with Aptitude.
Code:
$ adb --version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41
Version 28.0.2-debian
$ fastboot --version
fastboot version 28.0.2-debian
Connecting fine with adb, and using lsusb we see
Bus 001 Device 037: ID 2207:0011 Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Company SmartTab
Googling around that name led me to the Rockchip Wiki, which had an article on Fastboot and a bunch of open source repos
https://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Fastboot
Which states: "Rockchip uses 0x2207 as its USB vendor ID. This VID is not in Google's original fastboot code. So every fastboot command has to use "-i" parameter to specify vid to fastboot."
However, running -i on fastboot gives me an invalid option error:
Code:
$ sudo fastboot -i 0x2207 devices
fastboot: invalid option -- 'i'
I also tried downloading the most recent version of the android platform tools with fastboot version 33.0.3-8952118, which gave the same results.
Doing any other fastboot command without the -i just has < waiting for any device >
So essentially, I'm trying to figure out how to load a custom rom onto it, and what my next steps try are.
Other Misc Info I've tried:
In the Developer Settings on the tablet, there's no option to enable "OEM Unlocking"
Tablet doesn't have a power button, just a switch, so no pressing power and volume at the same time.
Rockchip seems to have a TWRP image available to build, which I would like to be able to fastboot flash (https://github.com/rockchip-software/TWRP/tree/android-9.0)
There's also a development tool (https://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Rkdeveloptool) that also lets you load firmware.
Using adb reboot bootloader reboots the tablet to a black empty screen, which I can then communicate with the rkdeveloptool.
In this mode, lsusb returns a new name:
Code:
$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 038: ID 2207:320a Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Company RK3288 in Mask ROM mode
$ ./rkdeveloptool ld
DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x320a,LocationID=106 Loader
