[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kibmikey1:
I have a brand new Panasonic Lumix DMC-CM1 smart camera/phone. It runs on 4.4.4. I've been through the wringer trying to unlock/root it, but the farthest I can take it is rebooting it to recovery through adb. No reboot-bootloader. I have managed to get a safe mode, but I'm not sure what that means. It looks like it simply doesn't even have a bootloader (if that's possible). Maybe I'm overlooking something really simple, but in any case, I've exhausted my knowledge on it. I'm providing 2 different things as sources here, so mabe someone wiser than me can crack this. My getprop, which will be listed below, and this link to the latest software/firmware update. I was trying to see if I could add in the root/SU to the zip itself before I flash the update. Also, I still have a gut feeling that this is possbile, just really difficult. Anyway, the getprop:
