OpenRecoveryScript question - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hope someone can answer this question for me. I've written some logic for OpenRecoveryScript that I am going to use in conjunction with Tasker to get my phone to automatically take an image in TWRP once per month.
Below is the code I plan on using in Tasker to put some commands in the OpenRecoveryScript file. (The %MyDate and %TIME items are Tasker variables.)
My question is: do I need to somehow delete the OpenRecoveryScript file when it is done running? Or is it automatically deleted when exiting TWRP? I ask because I don't want the script to run every time I go into TWRP; only when it is set to run by Tasker.
Code:
set crfolder="/cache/recovery"
set orsfile="${crfolder}/openrecoveryscript"
chmod 0777 ${crfolder}
rm -f ${orsfile}
touch ${orsfile}
echo "backup SDBO auto-%MyDate--%TIME" >> ${orsfile}

I believe twrp clears out the /cache/recovery directory after exiting twrp. You can always make a script like echo "test" >> /sdcard/test.txt then boot into twrp twice, but one time running the script. then see if there are two lines in that text file or just one. that should answer your question definitively.

hw_config.sh updating using echo command

firstly i'd like to apologize if this has been brought up before (i can't seem to find it), or if i'm posting in the wrong subforum. i originally made a thread in General but it seems that the entire subforum has far less visitors than here...
now idk if anyone's figured this out yet, but i just tried it and it works.
instead of pulling out hw_config.sh, editing it, then pushing it back again or just plain editing it from the phone itself, we can use the "ECHO" command...
from the shell:
# remount
# echo "whatever you want to put here" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it will append whatever it is you typed within the " " to the END of hw_config.sh
still haven't figured out how to do insert new line in it tho apart from multiple echo commands.
i think this can be particularly useful for devs like doixanh who's said that he needs to create a custom zip for different ROMs? maybe something like that can be put into the xrecovery update script? idk how to go about editing that file so i didn't wanna try it.
maybe something for his for example mddi module can have a command like
echo "insmod /system/lib/modules/x8mddi.ko # fix mddi lags" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
or something like that
Simple universal solution: don't edit hw_config. Use chargemon, that way only one update zip is needed.
can't say i know what it is or how to use it i'm still quite new to all this hehe. will look it up tho. i do know a little basic linux and command line things so i was just trying it out to see if it works since DX said he won't be making custom zips for all the different ROMs out there but many ppl seems to be asking for one. just thought maybe it would help :shrugs:
add to the second (empty one) line in chargemon this:
insmod /system/lib/modules/ModuleName.ko
You can add more insmod lines, one bellow another.
Then everyone should update recovery with FlashTool 0.2.9.1 to avoid any issues, and push new chargemon to /system/bin
Of course, you can modify the positioning in chargemon, for example, place insmod lines after keypress check - for booting into recovery, to make it still possible to boot into recovery if modules cause bootloops.

[Q] Please help me... (problems with md5sum mismatch)

Hello,
I am having a major problem... earlier today i made a backup of my ics'd out v8 rom in order to try the new CM7 Kang. I got the kang running but needed to install gapps. For some reason rom manager was not letting me install it from there because it wasn't an updated version of rom manager and i couldn't get an updated version. So i figured I would go back to my ics'd rom, download gapps on the sdcard, and then go back to cm7 to install... NOPE.
Every time I try to restore my backup I get md5 mismatch error. I went through a bunch of different threads for different phones and tried all the adb stuff it said and nothing worked. For some reason when I ran the command (given here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114) "cd /sdcard..." the pound # changed to a > and everything I typed would just be repeated back at me. The phone never even asked for superuser permission. I am pretty sure that I have the adb stuff right since when I type in "adb devices" in command I see the device, but I just have no clue how to fix this. Maybe the instructions given on this page only applies to that particular phone?
I would really like to be able to recover this backup and if anyone has instructions on how to fix this error on this phone it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!
ADB was working if you got a # prompt
Custom kernels are almost all "insecure" kernels - ADB sessions automatically have root permissions.
This was the case for you - a # prompt means you have root privileges.
A $ prompt means you don't
A > prompt means that something you typed on the previous line made the shell decide you wanted to type more before executing the command. Control-C will break out of this. So if you got a > prompt after the "cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/blahblah" command - you mistyped something on that line. Possibly you put a ; in there by accident, or you have opening quotes without closing quotes
There is a comment later in that thread "the folder name for your backup couldn't have spaces in it" - Weird characters in the directory name would be a possible cause of your cd command failing.
CWM should never have created a folder name that behaves like this, unless you did a nandroid backup using ROM Manager. If you did - another reason NOT to use ROM Manager.
Did you change the file name of the backup? make sure there is no spaces in file name. hope this help.
I would just download gapps to computer then move the file to phone. Then reboot into cwm and flash galls.

Thanks for the reply! Yeah that would make sense but I copied the file path directly from windows explorer and I checked for spaces too... Yeah I only do backups straight from CWM.

I did change the name from the original name, I added like "ics'doutv8siyah2.6.1blahblahblah" to the beginning so that I could distinguish which backup was which. Could this make a difference? I mean I have done this before without issue.

Change it back and see if it works
Only letters, numbers and periods. the ' is probably to blame.

Well I deleted the beginning and it looked like it was going to work because it was checking md5 sums for a while and then it said md5 mismatch. But it wasn't instant like the other times.
I think I read on one of the pages that you could take the nandroid.md5 from another backup and replace it with the one in the nonworking backup, is this true and would it work?
Ok nevermind, I forgot to do the ADB thing again xD it worked... THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Most likely.
I usually rename my backups manually to something like romname_date in ADB
e.g.
villainrom_1224
I NEVER put spaces or other characters in the rom name
Right now I think I have:
modstock_1128
villainrom_1224
uckk6_1224
one other ROM...
Ok guys I'm sorry, it happened again... except this time I think it may be a problem with ADB. When I am in adb shell, it shows up as "~ #" instead of just "#", however, typing "su" changed it to just "#". However, in both instances ("~ #" and "#") it gets an error:
~ # cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
/sbin/sh: cd: can't cd to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
and
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
cd: can't cd to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-22.18.04.05
This is the original name, there are no spaces, I checked the driver for the phone, etc.
Anyone got any ideas?
Oops double post -_-
Try tab-completion (type part of a directory name and hit tab - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, usually should work when ADBing into CWM), and use "cd" and "ls" to navigate through directories instead of just pasting the whole path.
ls = same thing as dir in DOS
Alright so I did that and found out the sdcard isn't mounting...
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell
~ # su
su
# ls
ls
acct fota.rc recovery.rc
app-cache init res
cache init.goldfish.rc sbin
config init.rc sdcard
customkernel init.smdkc210.rc sys
d init.smdkv310.rc system
data init_kernel_only.rc tmp
dbdata lib ueventd.rc
default.prop lpm.rc ueventd.smdkc210.rc
dev misc ueventd.smdkv310.rc
efs mnt vendor
etc proc
# cd /mnt
cd /mnt
# ls
ls
asec obb sdcard secure usb
# cd /sdcard
cd /sdcard
# ls
ls
#
I also went into root explorer and it said "SD card is not currently mounted"
...uhhh I feel like a noob to ask this but, how do you mount it? xD
The thing is, though, that it dismounts when I plug it into the computer to transfer files/adb, but it is mounted afterwards...

[Q] problem when rooting nook tablet

my NT is not working, if you can please click here to help me
anyway, before that - when it was working, i tried to root it by using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354487
at debloat menu, i chose "extreme" because i want to delete all of B&N content. i just want a normal android tablet, i know i can still read books by using the NOOK app for android.
so i chose extreme mode. and the command prompt window closed right after that.
so my NT was rooted, but not successfully, it was even worse than it was before i rooted.
i open the batch file (NookandZergy.bat) to see what the command lines are to find the reason why it didn't work. and i saw this:
adb shell rm -r /system/app/Accessories.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
i opened command prompt, and typed this. and i got something like "failed because the file is not exist." -> i knew the batch script was wrong in some ways. i was going to unroot and root again with the option "full debloat" (not extreme), but before i do that, i was trying to remove netflix, i wanted to type this to the command line to see what will happen.
adb shell rm -r /system/app/netflix.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but i accidentally type adb shell rm -r /system/app/, and then it removed everything in /system/app/
i got the error in the nook tablet's screen, i don't remember what the error is, but when i pressed "force close", it kept showing me that error, i tried about 20 times but still not work.
i turned off my NT, and when i boot it, it stuck at "read forever",
that's why i created this thread.
my question is: how do i do "extreme debloat"? i want to remove everything from B&N. can you please give me the correct "command lines" to do this? and how to use that "command lines"?
prepare a sdcard to boot into ClockworkMod (CWM) which is a custom recovery (replaces stock recovery). And from there flash this ROM, for extreme-debloat is easy you can modify the script just to debloat or i can make it for you. First focus in restore your system.
As i said in my last post in your other thread read my FAQ and you will find your what you need there, if you have any question me or any other user will try to help.
PS: here is post i made for a user about how to re-bloat but the thing is that i post the list of all the B&N apps for reference to you so it might be helpfull.
~ Veronica
i have a little knowledge about batch file, so i think i can edit the script
(just edit the wrong file name -> make it become correct file name)
but i don't know what files are inside the folder /system/app/
for example: the file Accessories.apk is not exist, so how should i edit the script

Well you got the error probably 'cause when you ran the script it removed that file so when you typed the same command again it won't remove it because is already gone.
In the link i provided is the list of all the B&N applications that are removed in the extreme debloat option. So you basically have keep that part of the code plus the intro to get in adb shell.
In that post you will also find a link to the complete system/app folder just in case you by "playing around" with adb remove any important system app, so you can push it back.

no, when i chose extreme debloat, it closed the command prompt window, before it closed, i saw something "failed...". when i typed the command again it showed "failed...", i'm sure it's exactly what it said before,
and i know after debloat, it should go back and do other command like "thank you for using" (i read the batch file). i also saw B&N apps were still on my NT, debloat didn't work because of the missing file -> the script stopped.
btw, you said i can use adb to push the apps back. so that means i can also use adb to remove apps? can i not debloat when rooting, and after root, i use adb to remove apps later? will adb work at that time?
and can i use adb to explore what files are in the /system/app/ folder? or any other program?

Yes adb works at anytime even in dockworkers (CWM) .
To know how to use adb go to my FAQ (link below in my signature) and look in the how-to's made by me section for the how to use and install adb.
"adb shell rm -r" is one of the adb commands and is used for remove files.
adb shell = is to get superuser permissions (root/su)to run advanced commands.
rm = remove
-r = recursive

help with bypasslkm for surges nc5>mk2

can someone explain how to use bypasslkm in further detail. i looked through multiple threads but im stilll not getting the handle on it,
Open your terminal emulator on your phone (download one from Google play if you don't have one) open the terminal and type the following commands (Pressing enter to execute each one)
su (sands for switch user, used alone will switch you to the "root" user. Equilivent to Admin in windows)
cd /data/local/temp (cd - change directory, followed by the complete folder path you want to navigate to)
chmod 755 bypasslkm (not going to get too in depth with this one because I could go on for a while with it but "chmod 755" changes the permissions to read, write, execute for the root user and read/execute for everyone else)
. /bypasslkm (. / tells the system to look in the current directory and, in this case, execute bypasslkm)
Hope this helps clear some things up for you!

Thats not an error. If you had bypasslkm anywhere on your phone, it should now be in /data/local/tmp with the right permissions and should have executed. Make sure you downloaded the bypasslkm binary linked above

The permissions should be 755, as Surge said.
If you KNOW it's in /data/local/tmp, then do this in a terminal emulator window:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/bypasslkm
/data/local/tmp/bypasslkm
insmod /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko
mount -o remount,ro /system
exit
If this doesn't work, DO NOT post just "it didn't work". Say what you did, why you think it failed. Capture the output and reply here with it.

I figured it out! Here is exactly what I did:
after downloading the bypasslkm.bin from the dropbox link, I used ES File Explorer (WITH ROOT ENABLED) to move the bypasslkm file to directly to the data/local/tmp location. NOTE: there are a few places marked "data" and "local" on the phone, so when you open a "data" folder, make sure you find the path in the right order [ i.e. first data, then local, and then tmp]
Using a ROOT FILE EXPLORER app (because ES doesn't have what you will need) go to the bypasslkm file, long press, and select permissions. It will display with permissions are currently set. At the bottom, it SHOULD display the total sum of the permissions selected. Basically, that means by selecting the right boxes, you can change the permissions to 755 !
7 5 5
user group world
r+w+x r+x r+x
4+2+1 4+0+1 4+0+1 = 755
These setting will give you the 755 that you need to pull this off .
When you have the permissions changed to 755, the last step was actually very easy. But if you want to play it safe, then I will tell you the root file browser I specifically used to do the last step.
I used the app Root Browser version 2.2.3 ( i literally googled for any generic root file explorer and this came up )
ok, so when you have the permissions changed, long press on the bypasslkm file.
select "Open With" and then select the option "Open As.."
At the bottom of the options is "script file" select it.
after doing so, select the option "Execute" and... Voila! I immediately regained my WIFI !!!!! \>w</
I hope this guide helped everyone out. I tried to be as specific as possible.

Thanks for the support. Glad I could help. Has your WIFI remained on, though? The solution I posted works, but only for a short amount of time. rebooting the system undoes the work I did and I have to go back into the root browser and execute the file all over again to get wifi.
Can Surge or someone else offer any expertise?
with the permissions changed properly, I tried executing the code, and still not working.
I have safestrap enabled, and I have sound restored. I am currently on android 4.3 from the downgrade provided by Surge. Its rooted.
If I were to upgrade to the rooted version of NC5, would that help fix the wifi issue, or would it carry over?
Any input going forward is appreciated!

It is possible to automate this.
Create a file with the following contents:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
/data/local/tmp/bypasslkm
insmod /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko
exit
Save this file as /system/etc/install-recovery-2.sh.
Make sure that the bypasslkm file is in /data/local/tmp.
Reboot, and you should now have WiFi again.
[Note: this assumes SuperSU has it's custom copy of /system/etc/install-recovery.sh in place. If that's not there, it's still possible to edit /init.rc to add a stanza to run this command.]

/data/local/tmp/bypasslkm
insmod /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko
exit
Save this file as /system/etc/install-recovery-2.sh.
Make sure that the bypasslkm file is in /data/local/tmp.
Reboot, and you should now have WiFi again.
[Note: this assumes SuperSU has it's custom copy of /system/etc/install-recovery.sh in place. If that's not there, it's still possible to edit /init.rc to add a stanza to run this command.]

I do NOT have supersu's install recovery 2 file in the location you said. I only have the regular install recovery file.
What I should I do? Could I create the file in laptops termial?
The first line of code gave me the error "file not found"

I tried again.
Ok, so I figured out the coding a little bit. Im not used to this, so forgive my ignorance.
I did the code as u typed it. BUT I made a change. Because I kept getting the "file not found " error. I added ".bin" to the end of the bypasslkm code line. It generated a real response. I felt relieved. I went ahead and typed the last line of code.
THEN I was told the file already exists... I have attached a picture of what I got in android Terminal

You should have /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
It will run /system/etc/install-recovery-2.sh if it exists. What I would do is to create the file on your PC, put it onto your SDcard on the PC, then use Root Explorer to put it into place.
The "file exists" error is because you already have the WiFi module installed. That won't happen when this script runs at boot.

Ok. I'll try that tonight.
But I have a few questions
Im basically trying to autostart the wifi module when the phone boots up right? Are there any apps that can accomplish this specific task?
Also about the downgrade in general. Did anyone get their SD card permissions restored after downgrading? I donwgraded to 4.3, rooted the phone, and somehow I STILL cant move apps to the sd card! Im beginning to suspect that thr issue may be with the card itself, which can be fixed with formatting the sd card. But has anyone had any problems with moving apps to the sd card?
Finally, the bug question concerning the wifi issue.
Is this probkem specific only to those with the downgrade? If so, should upgrading to Surge's rooted kitkat (with sd card permissions and tethered enabled) resolve the wifi issue?
I also noticed that I had wifi access when the phone had no sound. Only when I flashed the Non-HLOS bin file did I encounter this wifi issue.
Thanks for the feedback so far, I just need to understand whrre to go from here

I'm sure there are programs that can be set up to run scripts as root during boot; However, that's complicated since you want this to run while the phone is booting, before there's any opportunity to allow SuperSU to ask for permission.

That's a problem that's fixed by an edit to /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml, adding a stanza that permits external storage write access.

The need to run the "bypasslkm" program is because of the downgrade. If you go to a clean rooted Kit Kat ROM, it shouldn't have any issues with WiFi being enabled. That may be the easiest way to fix this.

[DOWNLOAD] Android Wear Update from MWD48B to M1D63H

Okay, another update
Of course I'll provide download links again
DOWNLOAD LINKS:
DropBox
Google Drive
OneDrive
---------------
HOW TO INSTALL:
In case your update installation fails for whatever reason you have to go back to a stock state. We'll first downgrade the watch to an older version (since those are the only IMG files I currently have).
Go to THIS PAGE and download the files (Here's a backup-upload in case they're down - OneDrive Backup)
Boot into bootloader mode (reboot watch > once logo shows up swipe from left upper to right lower corner)
Connect to PC, open CMD in the folder with those files and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery_6.0.1_MEC23G.img", "fastboot flash boot boot_6.0.1_MEC23G.img" and "fastboot flash system system_6.0.1_MEC23G.img"
Reboot to system and either let the watch update itself 2 times (far easier) or...
... boot to recovery and sideload the 2 ZIP-files yourself (you need to update to MWD48B (OneDrive Backup) first, then M1D63H (OneDrive Backup)!)
Anyways, I hope this helped a bit!
Currently trying to pull .img-files for those who still have their LG G Watch so installation will be easier and faster.

Install TWRP and from console/adb shell write
Code:
[STRIKE]echo "mmcblk0" > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_mass_storage/lun/file[/STRIKE]
You'll have access to all patitions on your watch.

What will this do exactly? I already managed to pull images with DD, but this also sounds interesting

It forces kernel to connect flash-memory (mmcblk0) in your watch to your PC as a disk. So, You'll see partitions as drives.
Then, you'll be able to dd them directly on your PC (if you use Linux, of course)

Hm, that sounds quite easier hehe, the TWRP dd way was nice too but I'll try this, thanks!

Hm, "sh: write error: No such file or directory"
Oh, because "lun" is the actual file, lun is not a directory.
Edit 2: No, wait what... TWRPs file manager shows me this is a file, not a directory, ADB however tells me this is a directory and not a file??? WTF

Stolen from Watch R thread fixed:
Code:
cd /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0
echo 0 > enable && echo "adb,mass_storage" > functions && echo "/dev/block/mmcblk0" > f_mass_storage/lun/file && echo 1 > enable
