I want to create an image for the Arm chip and deploy it on my Samsung Note 3. I have a compiled copy of



the Samsung source. I added another module to this copy for added functionality. I then downloaded a copy



of the stock firmware, which I have used a number of times to flash my phone. I took the boot.img file of



the stock firmware split it open with a tool online, and replaced the zImage with the zImage that I got



from compiling my source. After several attempts, I seem to be able to create a complete tar.md5 file of



everything in the directory of modified stock source. When I flash the phone with this file using Odin,



the file goes in fine, but the phone is stuck in download mode. I am trying to figure out the main cause



of phone going into download mode, and is the root cause one of packing the files incorrectly or did I not



include a file that is required? Here is what I did to create the tar file with md5 authentication:



I created the tar file:
tar -H ustar -c aboot.mbn sbl1.mbn rpm.mbn tz.mbn sdi.mbn NON-HLOS.bin boot.img recovery.img



system.img.ext4 cache.img.ext4 modem.bin > tarfile.tar



cp tarfile.tar tarfile.tar.md5
md5sum tarfile.tar >> tarfile.tar.md5



I then tried to do a sanity check by comparing the file with a tar archive in an image I have used to



flash my phone with using the file command, and here is what I get ( note: I put my results in the



/expermental directory and the unpacked validated tar file in /originalstck/originaltarfile directory ) (



Note also that the file called tarfile below is the result of packing my files vs.

  • Unless you have already unlocked the bootloader I doubt this is going to work. I would expect that the Note 3 will have a locked bootloader, which is not going to boot your custom kernel as it won't have been signed by Samsung's relevant keys. When you flash the "stock" firmware images from Samsung, they will have been appropriately signed, hence why they work and why your modified ones won't.

    This is in fact a software development question - the poster is trying to install and run their freshly compiled program. That said program is an operating system in no way makes the question off topic.

  • @ChrisStratton If you were being really picky, I'd say the Android Stack Exchange could be a better place: android.stackexchange.com. However as you said, it's a software development question and belongs here, however the users of the Android Stack Exchange may be able to supply more help in this instance.

  • @cybermonkey My question is more related to native development for the arm chip; not so much Android development. I did not use a single line of java. All of the above has been done with GNU make.

  • @cybermonkey This would not actually be an appropriate question for the Android site; at the root, it's all about how the app is packaged for deployment.

  • Unless you have already unlocked the bootloader I doubt this is going to work. I would expect that the Note 3 will have a locked bootloader, which is not going to boot your custom kernel as it won't have been signed by Samsung's relevant keys. When you flash the "stock" firmware images from Samsung, they will have been appropriately signed, hence why they work and why your modified ones won't.
