Hi, I'm Amol Baikar from India.

I'm Dot.Net Developer.

Last night i have bypassed the security in Nokia Lumia Device, Now I'm able to access system files.

I'm world's 1st hacker who bypass the security of Nokia Lumia Devices on WP8.1.

I have not posted yet on any forum or site.

Just help me, where to put my concept ?

On XDA Developer Forum or Nokia Forum or send report to Microsoft?

I think seriously send report to the Microsoft for Piracy Prevent. Other wise PIRACY BECOMES ON WINDOWS PHONE STORE.

Microsoft should be think on it before they officially released the WP8.1 OS Update in public.

Please reply, I'm extremely waiting.

Help me guys.

Support me.

[Windows Phone 8 General] djamol:
Yeah, thats the reason, I'm not able to post in achievement thread and hacking section.

First i need unlocked all capabilities to post.
[Windows Phone 8 General] onecosmic:
djamol,

Let me be skeptical about your hack, coming to XDA to ask if you should tell Microsoft or publish it to the community sounds to me a way to make noise or drag attention, if you truly found a way to as you say "bypass security" at least you should came with a prof of concept.

Inform Microsoft or not, they will release a patch as soon as the hack is alive informed or released, that's for sure, so the only win situation in case you notify MS is for MS only, so coming to the community to ask if you should do one thing or another is like using the community for MS benefit. At least on my humble opinion.

A piece of advice, if you truly found something, at least make your post with a prof of concept, video, explanation (no need to put code or details) just something that can make your statement more solid.

And in my opinion, i agree with someone that replied to this thread telling you to send the hack to recognized developers for validation.

Regards,
[Windows Phone 8 General] ceesheim:
[MENTION=5889633]djamol[/MENTION] Give me a PM and explain what you did to bypass sec on Nokia, if that is good I will instantly get you all the capabilities you need to post and make threads in the dev forums.

wp 8.1 apps can't be repacked and sideloaded . so for app's compiled for that the risk is low.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Agreed with pretty much everything here, and you should definitely work with cees. Let MS worry about blocking piracy; they already do a pretty good job of that (app DRM and such).

Exactly on the same date you made the same posting at WPCentral.

http://forums.wpcentral.com/softwar...ly-bypassed-security-nokia-lumia-devices.html

We are now a couple of days later and stil no proof of concept.

Exactly the same as on the other forum.

Same questions and answers.

It is for me save to say that i find it atleast suspicious and very doubtful that you overcome all those issues

and stil dont know what to do with it.

Besides that, here on Xda are a couple of great minds at work who are trying from day one to solve this prob.

They have proofen to be legit and have earned recocnizion here on this forum.

So do the same thing, give some proof of concept or be done with it.

I have read the whole tread on WP central, and stil.....nothing

And now you are here, and its exactly the same story.

you have done a great job mate :)
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Looks like a good trick. However, I'm not yet sure if it'll be possible with homebrew on non-interop-unlocked phones (depends exactly what capabilities/APIs are required for the decrypting of the DRMed files). I'll look into it, though.
[Windows Phone 8 General] djamol:
Yeah, I'm hoping that you topper guys can re-develop a file manager app having a both features etc. Or any new great things :)
[Windows Phone 8 General] djamol:

OK, we will continued here for Que-ans & general discussion But must Follow the XDA Rules.

last time i was forgotten Forum Rules & I'm sorry about that.

I really appreciates developer efforts.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ceesheim:
if you used a free app as example and only use words like "files,.dll,.exe all would be ok.

by using a paid app you risk yourself a ban because its warez !!!!!

and remember , try to sideload Navigon for example :) , it will not work because your phone still isn't CAB unlocked.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Somebody asked on the other thread about using this to interop-unlock phones by modifying OEM apps with the relevant capabilities. It's worth investigating, but I'm not expecting much. The problem is that store apps are signed, both at the XAP level and at the binary level. Modifying the binaries will invalidate the signatures. Binaries without valid signatures are only allowed on sideloaded apps... but we can't sideload apps with OEM capabilities until we have interop-unlock! There might still be a way (you can modify text files easily and safely, for example) but don't hold your breath.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Amadeus01:
I know i know it cant work, but i tried it anyway.

I tried to "transplant" trougt winexplorer, an app from one Phone to an other.

By copying a complete folder in D:/wpsystem/apps

Just to see what happends

Ofcourse nothing happend, but after a reboot i found out that the "transplanted" folder simply was disappeared.

Q

Is there somewhere in the wpsystem a proces wat keeps the systemfolder clean of junk files?

Just curious
[Windows Phone 8 General] ngame:
You know anyway to modify WMAppMainfest.xaml file from app?

I mean made app able to modify its own WMAPPMainfest?

If you know anyway let me know i have a tricky way i can tell you private
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Well, sideloaded apps can modify their own manifests (because they have write privileges to their install directory) and apps with certain restricted capabilities can also do so. I'm not sure if there's any value to doing so, though; the manifest is parsed at installation and most of the relevant information is used by the app manager (which I still don't fully grok) to set things like file associations, chamber (permissions) definitions, and of course the app identity (which defines, among other things, its install and data paths). If any of the data in the WMAppManifest.XML file is used post-installation, that would be interesting to know (although the parts that are most interesting - the capabilities - are not).

Go ahead and PM me if you have something interesting you don't want to share on the forum. I can provide a GPG key if you want to use encryption.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ngame:
OK I send you PM what I want to do ;)
[Windows Phone 8 General] myst02:
Can you also send it to me? Thanks :good:
[Windows Phone 8 General] lohtse:
would that not be the same as copying the folder to another sd card? if so then well the apps will should up in start menu but will say thay they are unavailable...

seems that they use the sd cards id to stop you from using cracked apps etc. I posted a thread relating to swapping sdcards and someone explained it.
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
I just bought a VZW Moto X non-dev edition that already came with unlocked bootloader (the seller told me and i confirmed it). The version is 4.4.2.

I could go into TWRP and install SuperSU v1.93. However, after rebooting, my phone still says it's not rooted. What have I done wrong?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
TWRP does not install SuperSU....it installs "SuperSu Installer".

You need to look in your app drawer and find "SuperSu Installer", and run it. It will give you 2 options to install: choose "Play Store" option. Afterwards, you should be all set.

If you were able to install TWRP, your bootloader is indeed unlocked.
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Hmm interesting. I couldn't find SuperSu Installer in my app drawer. Do I have to go into TWRP and install this file "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip" first in order to see SuperSU Installer?

I actually did that too and still could not find SuperSU Installer. Any help is appreciated!

Edit: I guess what I'm trying to ask is how to root my moto X.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
If you aren't already rooted, when you boot into TWRP and press "REBOOT" and then "SYSTEM", it should pop-up with a message saying something to the effect of: "Your device is not currently rooted. Would you like to install SuperSU-Installer?

Which version of TWRP are you using? AFAIK, only versions 2.6.3.1 and LATER will automatically install SuperSU-Installer for you....
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
I have TWRP 2.7.1.1. I just did what you said in TWRP but it rebooted right back to the lockscreen without asking to install SuperSU. By the way, I'm currently on 4.4.2. I'm not sure if that makes any difference.
[Moto X Q&A] Restola:
This is what mine did too
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Ah ha! That must be the issue. The NEW version (2.7.1.1) of TWRP is Official. The previous versions we were using were not from the official TWRP team. It would seem they took out the functionality I was referring to.

We will get you fixed right up though....

Head over to Chainfire's website: http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip

And click the download button for the latest version (1.99r4)

Flash the file from TWRP. Now you should be all set :)
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Just flashed that file from TWRP but still no root access :(...Would I be able to just flash the earlier TWRP version and repeat the reboot system step to install supersu installer?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Hmmm....do you have an icon for "SuperSU" in your app drawer at all? I haven't seen the flash fail to install SuperSU.

If you can confirm that no icon is present for SuperSU, I can help you with flashing the older version of TWRP and SuperSU. Let me know...
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Nope, no SuperSU icon.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
OK, something strange is going on. I checked the other threads, and the TWRP version you mentioned, and the SuperSU version I linked are the suggested versions, and have been confirmed to work....

Lets assume this is just a fluke...

Download either Flashify or Rashr from the market

(OR just use mfastboot commands...)

And flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 from here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/development/recovery-unlocked-twrp-2-6-3-1-android-t2534850

Afterwards, do as instructed in my earlier posts. Does TWRP offer to install SuperSU Installer?
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Will do! By the way, on bootloader page, it says "Device is unlocked. Status code: 3"
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
I just downloaded Flashify. It says "for root users." I don't think my phone is rooted though. Will flashify work?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Great, that means that you are definitely BL-unlocked (Status code: 3 is correct), and you WILL be rooted very soon. Once we get to the bottom of this...

---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ----------

Nope...I'm a dumbass :P (forgot root required to flash recovery from app)

you will have to use mfastboot. Do you have the android SDK and mfastboot binary installed? (On your PC?) Here is a the best guide I have found (if you don't have them): http://mark.cdmaforums.com/ADB.htm
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Yes, I do. Just went back to 2.6.3.1. Hit reboot -> system but it didn't ask me to install supersu installer. I must have done something wrong earlier :(

I opened Flashify and it said the phone had root but it could not access SuperSU.

I have to step away from the computer a bit. I'll be back in a couple hours..
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Sure...when you return, try flashing the new version of SuperSU I linked from within the TWRP version you just flashed.

If this doesn't work, I may have a hunch on what MAY be going on. It is possible that the previous owner was using a root exploit + safestrap + MotoWpNoMo originally, then later had the BL unlocked and did not SBF back to stock firmware. This would explain why the updates you are flashing from TWRP are not being applied for some reason.

If you try flashing the new version of SuperSU from the TWRP version you just installed (2.6.3.1), and it STILL does not work, I highly suggest SBFing back to stock 4.4.2.

Follow the "Return to Stock" thread here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515

You will download the 4.4.2 VZW SBF from here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0

After you have "SBF'd" back to stock, any changes/exploits that the previous owner had used OR any corruption in the filesystem should be repaired. Afterwards, I almost -guarantee- that the methods I listed early in the thread WILL work.
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
Many thanks!!!! everything worked properly and my phone is now rooted. Thanks again!!
[Moto X Q&A] X_Fact0r:
So I'm trying to install a custom ROM. I have the retail edition VZW Moto X with unlocked bootloader. When I install the ROM, should I follow the instructions for the dev edition or retail edition?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
You will use dev edition instructions. Now that you are bootloader-unlocked, you own an 'unofficial' dev edition (for all practical purposes).

Have fun

Hi,

I have an MDA I'm using at the Telefonica Spain GSM network (after some unlocking and reconfiguration).

ROM version: 2.21.2.6 WWE

ROM date: 3/9/06

Radio version: 02.19.11

Protocol version: 4.1.13.09

ExtROM version: 2.21.2.109

I wonder if it makes sense to upgrade my ROM, and also which should be the best new ROM.

Do new ROMs improve speed, performance or/and battery life?

What about this 3G or 4G PDA version issue I read somewhere? how can I know if mine is 3G or 4G?

Will I lose my data and configurations?

Thanks

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alienex:
Ok, got a Nexus 7 2012 16gb, and was trying to get f2fs sorted. For some reason my Nexus is now in a constant boot loop and resets itself in a boot loop between seeing the Google logo and then it goes to the recovery and reboots within 2 seconds and keeps doing this until the battery dies.

If I press power & VOL down it doesn't go to fastboot, it just repeats the above.

I think I may have buggered up the fastboot and without this I cannot find a way to reinstall default image from Google :(

I'm thinking I've hard bricked the device but would appreciate confirmation before I go purchasing a new one.

I've also wondering if it is hard bricked whether any UK person can sort this out for a fee?
