Verizon Edge Developer Unlock

any news on bootloader unlock on the veizon Edge the note4 unlock works but wont put it in devevloper mode?

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

sorry i forgot to mention i tried the unlock for note4 on the edge changed CID but did not get developer mode....
[Note Edge General] hometech99:
I have my Verizon de Edge.
[Note Edge General] sduffy89:
Thanks for your help, hometech99! Have you gotten in contact with npjohnson?
[Note Edge General] hometech99:
Yes.. No reply. Maybe he found one.
[Note Edge General] cyanidesin:
I will donate whatever to this cause. Was planning to try the N4 version, but will gladly wait for a more stable edge edition. You're the best!

Hey we found a guy with a DE! Whats good? Will it be a while before you can get around to looking into this for us?

[Note Edge General] sduffy89:
I wonder if they're on the verge of a breakthru with the Note 5 because that would likely take precedence. But yeah Im looking forward to using xposed framework and modules and custom recovery. Ill keep checking back
[Note Edge General] bigbooker455:
I think all that needs to happen is the file that's out there for the Note 4 needs to be altered with a Developer Edition CID for the edge but I just don't know how to do it I'm not a developer....

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

I'm pretty sure all the hard work is already been done and it's just an alteration of a Couple files, I've already flashed the software on my Edge and and it worked but because its a SM-915V and not a

SM-910V won't convert it.
[Note Edge General] sduffy89:
The Verizon edition of this phone was and still is very unpopular. The release date kept getting pushed back and the Edge seemed like an experiment IMO. I thought it would be a liability. I got this phone for free by dumb luck thru a Verizon error. If it was up to me I would have just gotten the note 4. But i have no money for full price phones to keep grandfathered data plans so this was a godsent miracle. I digress.

This is a charity project i presume. I doubt its very hard but theres not much (or any) reward for the developer who feels like throwing us a bone. Im sure npjohnson has a paypal link for gratuities. Just sayin.
[Note Edge General] h00rj:
They just released the full exploit for the Note 4. I'm sure they're inundated with requests and questions concerning that.

I'll be waiting patiently, I have no doubt they'll get to us soon enough. Anyone brave enough to try the Note 4 exploit on their Edge?
[Note Edge General] max366:
I came so close to trying it but then backed away slowly :silly:

Does KingRoot still achieve temp root on 5.0.1?

I've tried a couple times now using NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_1 05203.apk which is the one being used on the Note 4 prior to converting to DE and have been unsuccessful. I'm not sure if its just because of the instability or if I need to be on a different version of android.
[Note Edge General] Vorridor:
I honestly have no clue. Sorry.
[Note Edge General] pmterp:
Got it to work finally. Followed the steps from [MENTION=7417499]Robots_Never_Die[/MENTION] 's noob's guide for the Note 4.

Basically I had to do a reboot then make sure all other apps were killed first (besides Root Checker and then it worked. I've got temp root, odin and ADB installed, I'm ready! :)
[Note Edge General] max366:
I have been using 4.8_C135_b242 and it works very temporarily and intermittently but I've read in the note 4 forums having less apps installed increases success and duration of root

[Note Edge General] Vorridor:
Edited.
[Note Edge General] newbroot83:
4.9 holds onto root until reboot. ive tried it multiple times. it seems that with 4.9 it adds it to phone administrators, which in turn keeps root. (my guess that is)
[Note Edge General] h00rj:
Does the Verizon Edge have 5.1.1 yet? I haven't checked updates in awhile, but if it doesn't, that could explain the delay as the Note 4 exploit requires 5.1.1 from what I can see...

next update for our phones is 6.0 coming soon from what i read....

I updated my edge to the latest firmware BPC1 5.0.1 that's what's there if you initiate firmware update from OTA....
[Note Edge General] bigbooker455:
anything from npjohnson? :fingers-crossed:
[Note Edge General] Vorridor:
No news. Sorry.
[Note Edge General] Vorridor:
I think [MENTION=5848265]npjohnson[/MENTION] has quit working on it all together. He will not respond on hangouts. I have sent him my cid and aboot, now I'm a bit concerned with sharing any more info. Esp, the CID.
[Note Edge General] npjohnson:
Okay. No. As I have stated in multiple threads, I am COMPLETELY occupied from the month of April through the end of May due to AICE testing. I have 8 papers left, then I will be able to work on this.

Plus, the tools to finish this are already public.

You compile SamsungCID (in a KitKat tree), and use it to change the CID using temp root, then you can flash the corresponding developer edition aboot via ODIN. The reason I haven't release it is that there is an easier method.

Ryan has a slightly better method, he extracts the CID blob from the developer edition aboot, and places it into the current aboot partition, then changes the CID to match the blob. This allows us to convert without needing to be on the developer edition aboot's increment version to unlock.

I have opted to not release the former method, as it could result in people who don't read thoroughly enough bricking due to flashing the old aboot on a newer increment.

I will contact Ryan again to remind him.
[Note Edge General] npjohnson:
And, it has no requirements pertaining to firmware version.

It just requires temp-root.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] GeTex:
You all need to check something else first, you need your current CID

If it starts with anything other than 15, this will not work for you. Samsung EMMC's start with CID 15, Toshiba 11, and there may be more. If you Don't start with 15, this WILL NOT WORK.

Question. Didn't someone post in one of the forums (General or Android Development) about them having a Walmart Straight Talk S5 and that it was actually a VZW Dev Ed?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] camcorder123:
That's actually brilliant. It MIGHT work, but even though they have identical hardware, I don't know if that guarantees that it will have a compatible bootloader - unless it does, in which case that's amazing, and we need to get a hold of someone with one asap. Unless they are the same model, just rebranded, I don't see this working as the bootloaders may not be signed with Verizon's keys.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
True. Forgot about the VZW keys... Was thinking too much of finding a Dev Ed....lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] camcorder123:
Don't give up hope so fast. I'm getting in contact with a few people, and I'll certainly try it. This may actually be the same phone, I see a lot of websites suggesting Straight Talk phones are the exact same as Verizon ones. We shall see. My information about the keys might not even be accurate, with my limited knowledge.

It was a good thought though, even if it isn't true :D

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] mjbram16:
Use eMMC brickbug checker on the play store. First 2 numbers of your cid should be 11 or 15. You want 15
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] briantacker:
Search google play for "eMMC Brickbug Check"
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] CreeperPVP:
i think you have to do it from PC, i can't think of any way to do it on the phone unless you have root access. I've been trying to figure this out since the BL unlock method was released, and have had no luck at all.. G900AUCU4BOF3 firmware here <-- If we do figure this out, the Straight Talk aboot.mbn should work for us as well as Verizon.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] CreeperPVP:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] mjbram16:
If other vendor keys are leaked then possibly. This exploit only worked bevause the vetizon bootloader keys were leaked.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] camcorder123:
Not true. It only worked because the Samsung eMMC commands were leaked. The dev bootloader is signed so it can be flashed, only on devices with a matching CID. No keys were leaked. But we got the exploit guide and aboot.mbn with matching CID, it only works on 4.4.X at the moment, beaups said something about a fix that'll work soon. DO NOT TRY THIS ON 5.X!

---------- Post added at 11:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 AM ----------

Also, this won't work on any other carrier (unless they have identical hardware and Verizon firmware), unless that carrier has a dev edition (I don't think AT&T does)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Rakuu:
Ya, from my understanding of it I think att S5s are out of the question.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] CreeperPVP:
Pretty sure someone can hack something together for us.. AT&T probably saw this coming ahead of time :/
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Rakuu:
Not too sure about that, the reason this works(I think, someone correct me if I'm mistaken please, I don't want to spread a bunch of crap) for Verizon phones is they have a firmware variant with the bootloader unlocked(dev edition), previously it was unflashable, this simply allows you to do that. Since att does not have such a firmware variant, Im not sure how possible it is, it would require making the firmware, which would still need t be officially signed I believe. As much as I want this to work, I'm just thinking it probably won't. As I said though, really want this to work, so I really want someone to correct me on this, especially if im spewing a bunch of crap, I can't learn otherwise.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] CreeperPVP:
I'm just gonna be honest, I'm willing to brick my device trying.. There's always Odin to flash back to stock aboot and crap right?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
I don't believe so. From what had been posted by the Dev's working on the VZW Dev Ed aboot for the Retail version, is that if something goes wrong you're totally bricked and would own a $$$ paperweight. JrKruse was gratefully able to recover his device last night when he accidentally bricked. So as I mentioned on GeTex's thread, we all just need to be patient and wait for an "official" method to be posted. We've hoped and waited this long for something like this to come about. So we can wait a little bit longer before someone does the unfortunate.....just saying....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] camcorder123:
A failed bootloader exploit hard bricks the phone to the point where it won't turn on to even download mode. If you REALLY MUST do this, I'll include a command (when I find it) to image your bootchain onto an SD card which you can boot off of, but I can't guarantee.

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

Make a backup of your bootchain (in case of brick) with an external sd card (8gb or bigger and this command):

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk1 bs=512 count=524288

Note that will destroy any data already on the sd card (but don't skip that)

(From beaups :^))

Again, just be patient and really don't do this. Just don't come here saying it's our fault, I warned ya ;)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
Honestly, i wouldn't have posted/given these users that information due to the nature of what may happen. As i mentioned, and you as well, we just all need to be patient and wait for the Dev's, if able, to come up with a method for us to use. As everyone knows that when we start doing things on our own and come up with these "ways" of doing things. The Dev's will stop the project, that everyone is dying to have, because of forum users "cluttering" up their thread(s). Not saying you'reposting misleading information, just wouldn't want an "inexperienced" person bricking their phone...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] camcorder123:
I suppose that's true. But then again, everyone isn't always this wise. We can tell someone not to do something all we want but in the case that they actually DID do it, despite our warnings, I'd like for them to not be COMPLETELY lost, and creating even more clutter on these threads. (Not like I was giving them advice on how to overwrite crucial files and brick his phone, I was just giving them a backup in case they actually does do it)

But I get your point. :thumbup:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
I agree with you helping out with passing information which is what these forums and threads are for. If you look at the thread that GeTex has opened and graciously taking his own time of working out a way for an unlocked BL. The posts that some people are making kinda to where if some of it keeps going the OP and Dev's taking there time out for us may stop. That's what I was referring about. We just need to sit back and read what they are doing because some of those Dev's don't tolerate when users don't listen to their requests. Just my 2 cents because I'd hate to see the development stop/end due to nonproductive posts. Nothing of this is directed towards you, just speaking in general. :)
