Do you have it booting in "Evo Mode"?

If so that is quite a feat already.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] niceppl:
it's a method just to trick lazy panda.

evo rom...

fake sd...

however panda is not made for us..

it changed p3... but flashed the evo hboot to hox

and bricked my hox

fixed it by sean's unbrick emmc mode method ..(flash correct hboot back)

---------- Post added at 11:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 PM ----------

and warning...dont mess up with p9...it will brick you phone veryvery hard way...you wont even see qhusb in windows...so make sure you dont mess up...

just hard bricked one today...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:
Remember we can substitute hboot with our own. Just got to get panda write to correct place in p3. :-)

I recently discovered that I am able to complete the RUU (1.85 at least) without relocking my BL... I thought that wasn't supposed to be possible... Any chance this opens up a vulnerability for us?

Thanks,

Billy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Double check your unlocked and run it again to confirm it.

My EVO Ways
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rohan32:
Are you sure? Every time I've run it with an unlocked bootloader (1.72 at least) its come up with the error. I'll try using the 1.85 RUU in a sec when it finishes downloading.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
Positive! I was expecting it to error; that's what I wanted it to do, but it just kept going. I thought, "well, sonova... I must have relocked some time ago! What a waste of time!" And I was totally NOT ready for a wipe =\ but I checked afterwards and I was STILL unlocked. The only other option would be that I was relocked before, and the RUU unlocked me. I'll try it again tomorrow.

PS - When does it usually error?

Billy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SoberGuy:
This is exactly what frustrates me. If my PC were working I'd test that. Like in a heartbeat.

Totally won't brick anything, could be helpful. And only 1 or 2 guys willing to even consider it.

Jeep, thanks for all you do, man!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] regaw_leinad:
Should have errored right after it says Sending.....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
Wait... it DID change P3??? Doesn't that confirm Power On Write Protection as opposed to Temporary Write Protection??? That would be a substantial accomplishment!

I was able to flash an evo rom and I dd'ed all the evo partitions onto the hox but it bricked.

Well of course it did :what::screwy::beer::beer::beer:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:
Well he forgot to add he had evo build prop and Rom as well. We tried to flash evo partitions to get sbl in order so we could run lazy panda and s off. After p30 phone reboot itself into brick. :(

To get any farther ahead this was the next thing needed in the quest for achieving s-off :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:
Kernal source helps with s-off. Plus I do believe this thread is in general now?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
1.91, 1.85 and more kernel source is out
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hunt3r.j2:
I suspect the unlimited.io team might know more about how to achieve S-OFF....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Yeah and they're not willing to help. They've been asked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
They don't have an exploit for the HOX. Trust me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:
They are willing to help but like beaups said. Trust and believe there exploit won't work..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] regaw_leinad:
Correct, the exploit just doesn't work with the HOX. A new exploit has to be created for this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
gotcha. I got my dev groups mixed up.

I'm sorry.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hunt3r.j2:
Probably due to the lack of a microSD, that was probably what allowed the Evo LTE to have an exploit for.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] equlizer:
well now that we have kernel, hopefully someone gives us USB OTG :silly:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:

It might look dormant, but I promise it is being worked on daily... :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] k4p741nkrunch:
This may be a longshot, but just trying to possibly spark some ideas.

Is there any hardware with the capability to communicate with the secure partition? Would it then not be possible to instruct this hardware via a buffer overflow or something similar to trip the soff switch?

I assume this would have to be done via assembly, but at least it could be done through an app. Would be awesome to be able to market soff for the One X on Google Play.

I'm not extremely knowledgeable on how the hardware in mobile phones communicate with each other, nor the softwares in place to prevent this, but thinking about it as any motherboard with a system bus it sounds like its possible.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
We can read the secure partition, no problem... we just can't write to it.

Now that source is out, does anyone know if anything has the capability to write to that partition? Exploit a driver maybe?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AD8:
Hopefully the new hboot will bring good luck. New firmware to play with could be the answer :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
New firmware/hboot is NEVER the answer lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AD8:
I know its not normally the answer.. but since the old one is a dead end so far, maybe they made a mistake with the new one. From what i understand its different, changes things. Cant hurt to be optimistic. :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
What beaups said!

But maybe the new ota will get the team who does know how to do it already to make it available to us, just maybe since they wouldn't have to worry about att shutting it down too quickly.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vin255764:
this is the right place to ask.I want to lower my hboot from 1.14 to 1.09.

Anybody tried to use mmcblk0p12 from lower hboot?

I hexedited my mmcblkop12 partition from 1.14 to 1.00,it didnt helped

Also question-the one from s-off device,did it bricked?was it resurrectable from linuxbox?

Also how you guys brick this phone for tests.It was hard on evo3d with excact timing to remove battery...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
I spent a good hour and half with baups troubleshooting a failed root method. I can say he would answer any question you asked if he knew the answer. He wouldn't hide something just to get recognition I dont believe.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
In case anyone didn't know, we have a bounty for S-off and it's above $750 so far.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
That partition is just the hboot itself

If its the updated hboot from the new ota then you won't be able to replace it

Plus the method of replacing the hboot with one that pretends to be s off sucks, I'd rather have true s off as there are many risks involved with a fake s off

Also, does anyone know how to either modify or remove the text on the splash? Or atleast where its located? I got curious and started digging through partitions but found nothing
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
Don't think you can edit it wothout s off can you? I dunno not an expert merely guessing lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
I dunno we can edit just about everything else, I'm more or less curious where its located
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vin255764:
s-off is risky,i know.so you saying that partitions dump from s-off is fake?

for now im just trying to lower my hboot,its not too risky
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Some methods of s off are worse than others, my old thunderbolt just had a patched hboot that thought it was s off

The main issue was you couldn't ruu without a security error that could brick your phone

I'm kinda rambling so I don't know what I'm saying, but I doubt you will be successful

Try if you wish but know you might be risking a brick. And I'd look for a step by step tutorial on how to write back the hboot once its bricked
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] niceppl:
1. the 2.20 ota patched the hboot...so it's wped ...we cant even flash the mmcblk0p12 with root.

2. hboot is signed...even you can flash hboot...(no method atm) if you are s-on you will brick your phone...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vin255764:
brick is what I need

its always like that,but when s-on in dload mod you can push lower hboot

if bricking happened when s-off-nothing can be done (except jtag i guess)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
With lower hboot push in Emmc mode there is a very real chance of permabrick depending on how sbl is set up.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] douchebaggins:
I bought one of those ebay sim unlock codes today, but before applying it I dd'ed partitions 1-33 just to see what changes. Doing a diff between the partition dump before and after the unlock I see partitions 3, 24, 25, 26, and 33 have changed. The process itself involved entering the code after inserting a non AT&T sim while the phone was booted. If I remember right it took a little while after the code was inserted and then wanted to reboot.

Do you guys think that it unlocks partition mmcblk0p3 while the phone is booted or that it somehow queues it for hboot to do on the next reboot? If its while its booted we could sneak a change to 0x8400 in while it's unlocked doing it's thing.

If anyone is curious the changes to mmcblk0p3 before and after the sim unlock is to locations 0xc25-0xc28 and 0xAC01-0xAE00
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
I don't think it is going to completely disable wp after the code is entered. P3 is protected by sbl2 which is prehboot and the code obviously initiates a change so I think, if you wanted too(please:D) re simlock the phone, boot up and input the unlock code. When it tells you to reboot the device stop there and dd the partitions and diff those against the originals. It could tell us where the change is made that allows a wp change to be made. Lol, u tracking?? Thanks for your help BTW. I know how boring and repetitive it is dding and diffing:beer:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] douchebaggins:
So in fastboot when I hit the simlock command it printed

"SD init fail !!!

<VOL UP> Yes"

Looks like it wants file on an SD card which doesn't exist on the One X...

Phone was still simunlocked after rebooting.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
If u get it re simlocked, instead of dding all those partitions maybe just try and adb pull your /data/local. And /data/local/tmp after u input code and before reboot. Ideally don't think this is going to lead anywhere so don't burn yourself up if there's any issues. Really appreciate or input and hekp :beer:
