Optimus Recovery Mode

[zefie]

Here are the tot files for anyone who is interested and can't stand RapidShare

Index of /zefie/files/cell/LG670/roms/LGNPST Recovery - Mystic Midnight Files

They are compressed in xz, which is LZMA2. Latest beta of 7-Zip can use these files.

I'm pretty sure those tot files are something proprietary to LG so theres going to be no (easy) way to get the contents.

The best bet for repairs and such is doing just like steelh does for the EVO's. A simple busyboxed, rooted zip to flash. Nothing else done to it. If someone is really the worried type they could even flash that zip, then rm Superuser.apk so even if the Sprint person went scrolling through their apps, superuser wouldn't be present.

Can anyone confirm processor is it msm7625 or msm7627. Now that kernel source is out I should be easily able to OC the S. I figured out how to OC the msm7627 in ally to 787mhz and passed the info on to the palm guys who were then able to OC pixi. On recovery the formatting iss correct as I made 2x sure I had partitions right. On the tot file stuff we never figured out how to get the .imgs out on the ally.

I'm still trying to get the Clockwork recovery image built. Just working on getting Java & git installed right now.

In the LG thunderc kernel, the clocks are at
arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock.c

look for the following:

/* 7x27 normal with CDMA-only modem */
static struct clkctl_acpu_speed pll0_196_pll1_960_pll2_1200[] = {

Some research shows that it is Qualcomm QFIT (Qualcomm Flash Image Tool)

Just curious, in the off chance I get the Clockwork Recovery image built, how do I get it uploaded so users can flash it from ROM Manager?

Do you have an Optimus to test with? If you test it yourself and find it works just throw it up on Megaupload (or any file sharing site besides rapidshare) and I will put it on my file mirror.

Yes, I have an Optimus S. I have my own hosting too.

You can use that too, I'll still mirror it. Being @ Dreamhost and having unlimited disk and bandwidth I tend to mirror alot of things

You too? And its unlimited + 50GB

And at this rate, I might have the needed items downloaded using git by tomorrow.

Its a 7627 as 7227 is gsm only. Other than that are identical.

Good god, pulling CyanogenMod from github takes forever.....

 

[prittyboy203]

Oh ok my girl texted me and it interrupted it must be faith Lol I will wait a few more min

It does I've pulled it down a couple times.I hope you get it.If you do contact koush about rom manager.

drellisdee- did a great job and I know there will be a rom around soon.

 

[prittyboy203]

Should I download now cuz the first says error java signature messed up so you refreshed the link now?

 

[drellisdee]

Rc1 is out with mass storage mounting fixed and cleaned up a few key vol-down to go back if forgot to change in scripts. I'll be putting out a custom kernel with OC very soon. Setting it up on my github now.

Do you guys have an irc channel for testing/dev for opt S?

 

[prittyboy203]

Ok downloading now

Had to contact koush about one of the commands in his guide at My Brain Hurts: Porting Clockwork Recovery to New Devices

I can't run dump_image no matter what I do

Read the comments on his article, some people have recommended solutions.

Yeah, I think dump_image needs to run on the phone. I just used dd from a terminal on my phone (just need to pull the file on break).
