DO NOT DO THIS... JESUS ****

this is a boot image not a bootloader image.

fastboot flash boot decryptied.img..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
LOL, I didn't ntice he said bootloader, I was very tired
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
I have uploaded a new image that allows root and disables BCL in addition to removing verity and forced encryption. It is name noblcboot.img
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hachem28:
Where is the file? I only see "decryptedboot.img" in OP.

EDIT: nvm, i had to manually navigate to it. :)

Excuse me not having a complete grasp of the new root scenario. Is this the same sort of root that does not require system mod that chainfire is talking about..... Just flash SU 2.52 after this kernel? if so, android pay should still work right?

It's not systemless

[Nexus 6P Android Development] godlyitem:
So i was talking about the message that pops up whenever i power up my phone "your device software can't be checked for corruption..." message. i thought it was related to encryption causing the phone to make this warning. So, i guess it has nothing to do with the encryption?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kibmikey1:
So, aside from Chainfire's systemless method, which is a little too buggy for me, what are the differences between this method and Chainfire's orginal method?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
It uses the same method

It's the bootloader unlock
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jodvova:
Do I need to format the userdata if I would like to remain ENCRYPTED ?

Or this will not work ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Born<ICs:
.

FYI Android Pay should Never work on Rooted devices. If it happens to accidentally work due to some fluke Google will be fixing.

Root = No Android Pay
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ofthecats:
I think Google should warn users, but ultimately leave it up to them if they want to be at risk and still use android pay. That's how it was with wallet before.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] deeproot:
I think its more to protect the credit card company's interest.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stevew84:
So basically we just flash the decrypt image and then we can go into TWRP and flash one a ROM with the stock decrypted kernel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Mr. Despair Factor. Will the new boot image that you made that disables BCL, essentially replace Chainfires boot image to allow root and decryption? It gets a little confusing with all these kernels floating around. Your help, and work is greatly appreciated :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
EDIT wrong thread sorry!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bobby janow:
Mr. Despair Factor, gotta love it. I've been reading for hours now various threads about unlocking and rooting. I've identified a few scenarios one of which is mine, but that's neither here nor there.

1. Wanting AP to work. We know that in order for AP to work, now and probably into the future, there will be no root. Is there any reason to unlock the bootloader and decrypt the partition if there will be no root?

2. Will decrypting affect anything other than security on the device. Even Android Pay, will that be affected? Will it affect receiving OTA in the future?

3. If in the future we would like to install a custom rom even though running stock for a few weeks, unlocking the bootloader and decrypting the device will wipe userdata. Is that everything on the sdcard? And if so, it would only make sense to do the unlock and decrypt immediately if you are even considering it, correct?

I'm just trying to get a handle on these options for clarity. I know it's a dev thread but I have not been able to ascertain the answers to these questions anywhere else. So thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stevew84:
Haha, OK well what if u aren't decrypted yet?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
Yeah it replaces the system based root

Chainfire has a systemless root that makes android pay work. Decryption is done at the boot level, it should not affect OTA or android pay. userdata is all your sdcard stuff. I wipe my entire phone several times a month, so I don't mind doing it whenever.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
Could you please explain how to manually type it into the file? You can't just use text editor in root explorer correct? Is their an app to view and change those types of text files?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
You can but after a reboot it'll reset

Sent from Nexus 6P in the Despair filled Dark Side
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
OK, but it just looks like a garbled mess in text editor. Do I just add the lines to the bottom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
What? In the file there is one word.

Sent from Nexus 6P in the Despair filled Dark Side
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
I am going into system/bin/sh....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
No that's the shell

Sent from Nexus 6P in the Despair filled Dark Side
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
Can you give me a little hint as to where to find it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
it's the sys/devices/soc.0/qcom,bcl60/mode path
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
Just change it from enabled go disabled right?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stuff:
You're really unsure of what you are doing. And that is a good way to probably mess something up.

echo disable > /sys/devices/soc.0/qcom,bcl.60/mode

The line above prints the word "disable" and redirects the output into the file at /sys/devices/soc.0/qcom,bcl.60/mode.

Essentially replacing whatever was there with "disable"
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
I understand how the script works but I saw despair say that the bcl script won't work on page 4. He mentioned something about manually editing the file.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
[MENTION=5169465]DespairFactor[/MENTION], there are two new builds for the 6P.

MDB08L

and

MDB08M

Do we get new kernels from you for these? :D

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
I will look at it when I have time, I am currently at work
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Dang, that was a quick response. lol Are we good to flash the new build? I can wait for a decrypted kernel for a bit. I assume we can always flash back to MDA89D (if we want to go back that far for whatever reason) or some other build. Unlike other phones, are Nexus phones downgradeable? This is my first Nexus device.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] elreydenj:
Maybe a version that allows for system-less root as well..... Hope im not asking for too much! :p
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DespairFactor:
Systemless root doesn't work properly for a lot of things from what I've seen

[Nexus 6P Android Development] italia0101:
Probably a stupid question, but seeing as their is a new security patch out , is it possible to install that on an already rooted device without losing data?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Unforgivenlife1986:
I would also like to know that. Currently im running MDB08K on rooted device. Wondering if i can flash MDB08M without loses anything or any problems..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jodvova:
When the latest kernel will be available?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Jsilver73:
Come on fella, you got an angler, you should know better than to ask for ETA on XDA.

Does anyone have a mirror for the mdb08k kernel please, I can't seem to download it to my phone, the one [MENTION=6555069]Heisenburg[/MENTION] posted downloads fine from drive.

Many thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] notfaded1:
I wouldn't...

I'm not sure how OTA's that get tried on system with modified /system work on 6P yet but on my nexus 5 it wouldn't boot if you tried it. Best to wait for someone to make a flashable zip to do the update without blowing root away or worse making your phone not boot or bootloop. On some devices I suppose it just would overwrite all your changes re-enable crypto, and kill root.

Using Chainfires systemless root you could flash clean boot image then update then reflash modified boot and then restart... in other words take ota's and still retain root.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stevew84:
Hey [MENTION=5169465]DespairFactor[/MENTION] are you still building your ROM for this?

OK here it is . After 1 week of using the clear poetic affinity case I must say it has held up better than I thought it would. My daily case was the UAG clear case so I could show off the beautiful gold glass on the back of my phone. The poetic affinity offers very similar protection but feels much less bulky. The clear plastic is wrapped in a hard black tpu that runs around the bezel of the phone and covers a section of the back. All of the ports are easy to access however their is no opening for the noise cancelling mic at the top of the phone. ( Could just be because it is a test model ). I feel the case provides a good amount of protection and I like all of the options for design and style they offer on amazon. The buttons are easy to feel and don't stick out really far. If I were to buy one for my self I would stay away from the clear affinity only because of the fingerprints it picks up. I am way too ocd for prints all over my case. I prefer a clear textured for fingerprint prevention. All in all I would say this case provides protection and a nice look in a less bulky package than the UAG case and the Poetic Affinity is half the price. I would rate this case an 9 out of 10. I must say the case looked fantastic with a skin on my phone. I would definitely consider this a go to case if you are in the market.

I am also using the Affinity case by Poetic. Very nice case but because of its highly smooth shiny gloss construction it does show every tiny mark. I had just fitted it and cleaned it with a proper spectacle cleaning cloth and even that made minute marks on that lovely finished high gloss plastic. Superb looking and shows off very well the beauty of this magnificent mobile.

Hello folks,

What I have noticed from Marshmallow 6.0.1 OS upgrade and also with latest update of Montblanc Exclusive Content 2.6.01-3 is:

1. Installing apk alone will not help when it's come to Montblanc logo pages in S-Note , unless you attach Montblanc flipcover go to settings choose Montblanc page. This time Samsung has scrutinize it.

When it comes to Montblanc e-Starwalker you won't be able to use it when S-Pen inserted into phone unless you opt out from S-Pen power saver option in S-Pen settings

Kindly share your experiences.

Also find the latest APK to those who wish to try it and do not forget to share your experience as well.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] @BB:
What version of S-Note does this work with? I have 5.1 and the pens aren't showing up at all.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] XDA_Tinker:
As I have mentioned earlier, it seems Sammy has patched up the loophole which makes compel to use flip cover to get the pens and Montblanc background logo in S-Note which is disappointing to many users who cannot afford premium accessories from Montblanc.

Today I have tested both with only APK and with Montblanc flip cover as you all have complaining which is true.

Now it works only when you attached Montblanc flip cover which enables Pens and Montblanc background logo in S-Note

By only installing APK gets only wallpapers nothing else.

Hope someone will come up with solution to fix this to work without flip cover.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] XDA_Tinker:
S-Note has nothing to do with MontBlanc Exclusive Content, Sammy has scrutinize and has patched the loophole.

The only option to get Pens and Montblanc logo background as of now is to use Montblanc Flip Cover

Hello, first let me thank you for any help you can provide.

I have a Pumpkin X 9.6" 32GB [OCTA CORE] Android 4.4 Tablet

MTK Droid Tools lists it as the following.

Hardware: MT6582 (MT6595 is Fake!)

Model: T809C

Build Number: T809C_vEB014D_20150104

Android: 4.4.2

It's Storage is divided between Internal Storage 1.99GB and Phone Storage 27.47GB. I run out of space on the Internal storage all the time, it looks like that is where it store almost all App Data. I've moved every App to phone storage and it's not enough. I would like to repartition to 20GB Internal Storage and 10GB Phone Storage. It also has an SD expansion for up to 32GB, I tried Link2SD Plus and have not been able to make that work at all, always package failure when going to link the files to SD. The 32GB SD Card will hold any media that I would like to keep instead of having it on the tablet itself.

I have rooted with Kingo Root and it has worked fine for most things. I ran MTK Droid Tools with ADBD Insecure and ran a Backup and a NVRAM Backup. I also ran TWRP 2.8.2.0 and have that installed.

I usually muddle through things like this on my own, but since it is a knock off tablet and has no support website I figured it would be best to consult some experts so I do not brick the tablet into unusability.

I looked at HK ROM Editor and it was of no use. I have also tried to look at the files with ERBTweak, but since my ERB1 file is 1kb I don't think the program will deal with it.

If anyone could help it would be much appreciated. Any precautionary steps I missed? Or programs to try?
