[HTC Wildfire S] Antagonist42:
Locations of mtd? try another OS?

I've been following t5his for a while now, seems to me there is a hard (but after trawling and rummaging) block in front of us but which may be a simple one to work out, I myself have an ACER C6 E320 Liquid Express - and before you say anything I've tried that forum and this phone isn't in there yet :confused: - lets run through a couple of things :-

1, S-ON/OFF - Unknown as no indication, suspected on as zero su capability.

2, Recovery - Altered for/by ACER, options recovery or factory reset, nothing else

3, Fastboot - Nothing doing unless it says it does but it lies and doe nothing :D

4, ACER EUU - Can now re-flash without losing user-data so there is a back-up somewhere :confused: ?!

Funny thing is - PC, run the EUU and let it get to completing setting up but no phone, all the files will be in your c/docs set/etc.. and First Instance of 'hidden folder' Application Data. Using QPST found COM ports opened but if connected where in 'Download Mode' only (ports 6,7,9,10,11, varying from phone on to recovery/fastboot/test screen) whist running EUU onto phone picked up it was transfering files on COM 3 :confused: (but that may just be be as I just plunge in but don't know enough :o ). I have since ran the EUU, attached the phone, running sysinternals process explorer halted the update with the small and fast use of the EUU running 'CheckHTC' (mines ACER :confused: Oh yeah, it's a licensed phone FROM HTC [namely the chacha - also uncracked]) CheckHTC is a little squidge of a program that doesn't run except 'from' or 'part of' EUU, which to my surprise 'Turns Off' AMSS or RADIO I think, I then ran the malez update just to see if it would do anything at all :rolleyes: BINGO! well nearly, all I got was ACER logo, I locked up the bootscreen twice and recovered with EUU, Booting screen usually shows ACER then progresses to androids as well then up and running so it can be written to S-ON/OFF unsure but since I've been trawling I came across a couple of other things more 'equipment' basic.

Question? - Why is it hard to find security when you're an 'end user'?

Answer - maybe because your security lies in another more 'BASIC' OS that can run Android/Linux.

Hardest keys to find would be the ones in another OS especially if the main OS is not so dissimilar to Android/Linux, you could then say that you could have 'exotic' radios because they're basically run on the main OS which is probably the same throughout the phones series and radios being installed as factory, then OTA/manual updates even mine updated on powering on from new before I even got a phone number or service provider. So - hboot/recovery/etc why no re-writing crashing etc? Secondary OS that can't be written to if you speak the wrong language.... or maybe we just need to talk to it in brewmp :rolleyes: if the manufacturers are using it already (like the Qualcomm sms7227 (really think it's an updated *thinks... ME/CFS gives you a damn bad memory... nope lost it :eek:* 7xxx series chip which Brewmp has Qualcomm FFA 7625 - 7227 info in the DEVS area and more besides (not a member...yet :p ) so maybe that's why even the math don't work out?

We gotta get this cracked because I can't trawl through all those Chinese docs again lol and if it's all wrong then give me a knock and I'll shaddap! :o ;)

no.human.being and theq86 ...we're not worthy :D
