I was actually wondering how this might affect us when MM gets released for our phones..

Would verizon/samsung be able to block the CID in an update and prevent it from booting the update/being a dev device?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
I was worried sick about a hard brick, I read each line carefully twice before executing it.

"recovery is not seandroid enforcing" message when boots into recovery

what is that? any help please?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
dont worry its normal, it say that because its not a stock recovery... And if you install custom rom not based in TW when booting it say the same about the kernel...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
Unfortunatly I dont have a 15 device, anyone try a custom kernel yet?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
I got rid of it by flashing KToonsez "TWRP-KT.ALL-IN-1.zip" vKT-2.8.6.0

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] i9192droid:
Oooh ok thanks for answering... another question hope u can help me, i have installed a jkruse tw based rom but because the locked bootloader the stock lockscreen is unusable... now i have unlocked my phone, how can i enable the lockscreen? is this possible?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
It needs to be done at the kernel level. There are kernels on the other variants threads that are modded. Verizon S5 is pretty forgiving on running other kernels, so most should work. If WiFi doesn't work you may need to make sure secure storage=false in the build.prop
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
Dont know, but i think the rom or the kernel got to be modded to work...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
Got the same recovery but i got the warning...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
Only warning I get is:

(In Blue) Recovery Booting......

(In Yellow) Set Warranty Bit : Recovery

bootloader

[MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION]

I noticed in your youtube video you were flashing BOOTLOADER with odin. Im currently on the PB1 bootloader. Am I to ascertain that we can flash other bootloaders, ie: 4.4.2/4.4.4, or do we lose our dev status on device if we do? I dont plan on doing this, but just for my own understanding. Also, if we flash SM G900V Developer Edition OEM's (if they exist) will we still have unlocked loader?

(be gentle, Im still learning)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
In what rom?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
Fixed my little typo for mmcblck0 to mmcblk0

Sorry for that everyone, alot at once and lack of sleep. might as well be drunk
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drewcu:
Haven't taken the plunge with the Dev Bootloader on my rooted 4.4.4 VZW S5 with Safestrap and Samsung CID because I have a few reservations that I am hoping to get clarification on first:

1) If I decide to unlock but not to do anything else for now with my current Safestrap and stock ROM, is this possible? Or does making my device DEV affect the recovery and stock ROM I was already running?

2) If someone finds out that we can keep doing custom ROMs but there is some block on ever doing another official ROM, is there a way to reverse the changes made with this tool to counter this potential aboot/CID block? In other words, is this process 100% reversible?

3) I know people HAVE to say there is bricking risk to using this tool, but how much is there really here? My S5 is my daily driver (is that the right phrase?) and would like it to remain as such, so I would like to understand how and why bricks have been happening for people so I don't fall victim myself. I have a CID that starts with 15 and have backed up everything in Safestrap and also Titanium on my micro SD and then backed the micro SD to my computer. Should something happen, is a bricking reversible or is it pretty much final?

Thanks for your help!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Flash one of the kernels in original thread
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
1. Its possible to use the current system

2. The process is reversible by unlocking the boot partition and then flashing a full stock

3. Risk is minal, is uses a microsd card to backup the bootloader, in which it will boot from in an emergency. It will nuke the sd card, but again, we are touching the bootloader, risk of brick is real

4. they may be other implications we haven't found yet about changing the cid(like the fact all our phones have the same hardware ID)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
If you follow directions brick factor is low. I spend most of yesterday trying to brick my phone! Process is reversable. You can still flash any rom that you flashed before. The only thing I recommend is removing safestrap from rom and phone. You can leave it but the new safestrap flashes stock kernel at each reboot so if your trying to run custom kernel it will be changed after a reboot to stock. So just open safestrap and click uninstall recovery. Flash fire is fine to leave on the rom and you can still use it even with custom recovery.

Edit. GeTex snuck that post ahead of mine!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drewcu:
Haha, no worries about the double response. Glad to hear both of your opinions on something so risky.

Why did your phone end up getting bricked after so much trying? Can it be recovered or is it dead?

Would switch from Safestrap 3.75 to something like TWRP if I ever went to a custom kernel, but do you think I need to switch recoveries if I stay on the stock kernel? I have been reading every page of this thread almost since it started and am too excited about it not to try it myself even if that's as far as I go right now. Eventually I want to use CM13 for security (Metaphor) reasons, but do not want to have major bugs with Bluetooth or WiFi on my phone.

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
He said he was trying to brick it, intentionally, to test the end result.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] captainm27:
OK, total noob here, and I know I shouldn't be playing around, but I did manage to acquire a second Galaxy S5, for free, so no harm in messing this one: I followed the steps, but I'm not sure how to confirm Step 21 "Verify you have Dev Edition now" Here's what mine says when booting to Recovery

[In RED TEXT]

Android System recovery <3e>

LRX21T.G900VVRU2B0G5

Volume up/down to move highlight:

power button to select

Then at the very bottom in yellow text it states:

# MANUAL MODE #

-- Appling Multi-CSC...

Applied the CSC-code: VZW

Successfully applied multi-CSC.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] corporal_hades:
Is there enough data available to answer these issues yet or still too early? I saw another thread where someone said that with everyone doing this method being on the same CID, any one of those people could hack into any same CID phone or remote wipe it or something like that. Hopefully that's incorrect as that would really suck.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] radionerd:
Confirm DevEd

The stock recovery text above looks OK, No dead android (like my profile pic ;)

How to verify if your DevEd:

DevEd looks like pic below from Odin download mode screen. (Boot holding Power+Home+Volume down), once Odin download mode starts follow instructions (press volume Up).

To leave download mode, to get back to normal boot, hold the same 3 buttons down until it vibrates. Then it will reboot normally.

Click thumbnail to enlarge

If you're "Mode: Developer", all is good :) Time to Odin flash TWRP recovery zip, Su, DevEd safe Rom, celebrate...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] captainm27:
OK, thank you. Yes, that's the screen I saw when I was rooting the phone in the first place, using Odin. So I guess I must have missed something, because when I boot to recovery, I do not get that screen. Maybe it's becuase on Step 15 of method 1, the final part is that the phone shuts down and reboots, but nothing happened on my phone, so I manually rebooted it. :confused:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] radionerd:
You need to boot into Download mode, not Recovery. (Boot holding Power+Home+Volume down), once odin download mode starts follow instructions (volume Up) To leave download mode to get back to normal boot hold the same 3 buttons down until it vibrates.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] captainm27:
Thank you! Now for some reason, ADB Tools doesn't detect my phone when I'm in Download Mode, even though I hear the Windows 7 beep noise, like when you plug a USB device in. Under "List of Devices Attached" it just shows a bunch of green lines. :(
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] radionerd:
I think adb tools are not available when in Odin mode, just Odin.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
correct. only fastboot, which our phones doesnt use.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] talktosamson:
When you're in download mode, regardless if ADB recognizes you, do you see "Mode: Developer" on the screen anywhere?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] captainm27:
No I don't. Here's what I see:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SM-6900V

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Official

REACTIVATION LOCK(KK): OFF

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

RP SWREV: S1, T2, R1, A2, P1

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

UDC START

At what point do I need to be on the phone to run the steps on OP's post?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
Run the script once more from adb tools.... i say to run it twice

you confirmed you have an 15 not an 11 right?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
I'm just Jokingly saying but you could pass on your "free" one to GeTex since hers were 11's and not 15's so she can enjoy the wealth....haha...hope you get yours unlocked...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] captainm27:
I wish you can see how red my face is, full of embarrassment..... Yes, mine does have the 11.... it told me right there in Bold green words, and I didn't realize it. See, I knew I was a noob.

OK, problem solved!! Waiting to hear of an exploit for the 11 chips. At any rate, now's a great time to thank the XDA community for all they do to support us noobs like me! :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] radionerd:
Model SM-6900V? Is this a typo? I've been out of the loop for a while on Mine it is SM-G900V.

I don't know if your A2, T2 (aboot, Trust Zone) increment matters with this exploit. Maybe one of the guys that successfully performed the exploit can confirm their fuses. Are they A1 or A2???

Thanks,
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
Successful here...

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] radionerd:
Thank you [MENTION=5292942]alaneddy[/MENTION] !!!

What is your BL Baseband version?

I guess I will have to beg for a script that I can use to update my baseband using my own factory DevEd aboot and CID.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
I posted a method to update modem
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Beeko:
Amazing work guys. Worked flawlessly on my OG5 rooted phone. Now time to start developing!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drewcu:
SUCCESS, THANK YOU! Took the plunge and this simple method works nicely. I have confirmed my S5 is now a Developer model and the current recovery and stock ROM still load as expected. The only issue I ran into is that some of my apps needed to be reinstalled probably due to the micro SD card formatting during the unlocking and reformatting afterwards. Not a big deal and could have been worse so thanks to all for the hard work and dedication in coming up with an unlock solution and following through with assistance via this thread!!! Nice to be in complete control of my unlocked, rooted 4.4.4 S5 (unless it succumbs to the Metaphor hack :eek:)!!!

Thank you again!!!

EPIC! Everythings working, Going to add method 3 which is [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION]'s easy method!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
i think all ROM's or Kernel related questions need to be asked in their respected thread or we need to start a thread of such. We are all new to this Unlocked BL and questions such as these we do not know all the answers to that are related to which ROM or Kernel should be used or what needs to be done in the process. If someone would like to start a thread for question such as these, please do. I am not one to say but asking of such is somewhat "off topic" of the OP.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
As [MENTION=5209970]al50[/MENTION] has said, I'd like to keep this thread bootloader only. I do have suggestions in the OP for dealing with modems and firmwares. There is new threads popping up for roms and kernels, please move to those threads if you aren't talking about the Bootloader :)

You CAN ALREADY flash recoveries/Roms on Sprint s5

Oh

It's still locked to the extent that it can't be downgraded.

But not fully, like the Verizon where you can't flash anything non-stock
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Dashaquavius:
I tried method two, and it worked. Rebooted both times and everything. I flashed a custom kernel, and it gave me the 'kernel is not SEAndroid enforcing message' on the splash screen then the message telling me to bring it to Verizon. So I reflashed the BOA8 kernel.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
reply deleted.... irrelevent. sorry. but that is normal.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
So its still not possible to force se permissive, lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Rakuu:
Permissive kernel or init.d
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
Permissive Kernel didn't load when tested, init.d script failed
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
In CM13 and RR i changed my SE to permissive...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drewcu:
So I am considering taking my now DEV S5 on KK 4.4.4 NK1 up to Resurrection Remix which is MM 6.0.1. The RR instructions suggest I probably want to update my firmware/modem to PB1, but shouldn't do this after making my device DEV (too late!). Frankly speaking I don't even know the purpose of the firmware/modem to begin with. I know the instructions for updating the firmware/modem are probably above (and OP), but I don't quite understand the sequence and steps.

Can you please assist [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] with spelling out the steps going from stock KK NK1 to MM 6.0.1 so I don't have issues? Maybe I don't have to update the firmware/modem and if so, you can let me know that also. Can KK coexist with the PB1 firmware/modem or will I have issues on KK if I don't update to MM right away with the PB1 firmware/modem?

Thank you!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Dashaquavius:
How would my reply be irrelevant? I assume that my bootloader is still locked because I can't flash a custom kernel! Or can I install Cyanogenmod? Is my phone the Toshiba 11? So many questions I have blatantly ignored! What does unlocking the bootloader do if I can't install a custom kernel? I'm confused at the point of this thread. Can someone please explain?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Rakuu:

I'm getting this when trying to Pull the file in adbtools, is this normal? Don't want to continue without some confirmation. (Attached screenshot)

EDIT:

Err reauthorized my PC, nvm@first part.

at the chown root.root samsung_unlock part, it keeps telling me:

chown: samsung_unlock: Operation not permitted

What have I done?:crying:

EDIT 2:

Nevermind again, might be worth adding to the guide that at this step, you'll need to turn on the screen and explicitly hit Grant/Allow on your device.

I'm back on track thus far.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Dashaquavius:
How about pointing out the fact that the difference between the 'Toshiba 11' and the other phone aren't properly explained either? What kinda guide is this, and why won't anyone help me out? I'm on T-Mobile now I could give two ****s about my Verizon S5, and I've been waiting since probably my freshman year for a bootloader unlock, and no one offers an explanation or helps me out? Look all I ask is this.

1. What's the difference between the Toshiba 11 phone and the other

2. Does this bootloader unlock allow us to install non TouchWiz Roms?

3. Do we have to keep our kernel or does SEAndroid have to be enforcing or permissive? And should we or can we install custom kernels?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TioCareca:
Toshiba 11 got no unlock, search emmc brickbug check in playstore to see whats your...

After unlocking you can flash recovery, kernel and all roms builded for our phone... The error show when booting the kerner/recovery is not se enforcing its just informative...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Dashaquavius:
Thank you.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alaneddy:
You need to authorize ADB to have access yo your phone. Make sure usb debugging is on, and verify apps via USB is unchecked, then plug in phone, it should ask if its ok that your computer is trying to access it, click the checkbox when it pops up and that error goes away.

Easiest way to do it:

1-unplug phone

2-goto developer options

3-click revoke usb debugging authorizations.

4-click OK

5-plug in phone

6-check the checkbox of the popup saying your computer has access to phone.

7-in ADB window type: ADB DEVICES

Your phone should show up.

8-restart unlock process

This is for users with 15' Sasmung eMMC's not users with 11 Toshiba eMMC's. You can check this by reading the file

did you not read the whole op....

You must make sure first of all you have authorized your computer in developer options and that USb debugging is on, you could also using adb tools use adb wireless if your device is configured for this!

You also on screen must grant ADB root access, please make sure of this
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] purplepenguin:
After those two hiccups, I got it just fine. Thank you for your help and the tool!

I swear I had already authorized my PC in the past - and I just wasn't aware I would need to turn on screen to grant root access on the phone when typing the later command line stuff (steps 13-17 during method 1.) All good from then on though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] brianthomasjamiel:
this is an apology

so i realized i have been out of line with those helping me. the truth is i have not been having the best time i had a court hearing that Friday that i lost, my relationship with my gf went down hill and we are no longer together. then to add things weren't working with my phone and i unintentionally formatted it and gave it nothing to boot to on accident so that in itself was a fun adventure. does it excuse my attitude no it does im greatly thankful for Getex and the firewatch dev team working on this endlessly to give us what we should have in the first place

if it means anything to anyone i apologize from the bottom of my heart its just been rocky for me
