Kali blows and Ubuntu? What are you a nix noob? Lol jk

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
It works for the small things I need you know with 2 titan x and 8 cores hint hint.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] mattern1974:
Ubuntu is a standard whether it sucks or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Actually you thinking Debian but that's ok I get what you are trying to say however Unix is the original nix OS system and Ubuntu is child's Linux a step into Linux if you will. FreeBSD is Unix based so wouldn't in theory that be that true standard..........

http://kixeye.gotscrewed.us
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] mattern1974:
I don't think there's a lot of compiling for Android (Linux based) on Unix systems such as BSD. I don't disagree with you at all....Unix is the very solid predecessor but I have only heard of Linux being used to compile for Linux.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Haha this explains you're mood yesterday!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
How so?

That is because android best resembles Linux not Unix systems.

I upgraded my N920A to MM. So can we root MM on N920?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] gg83744:
If there were a way to root on MM there would be a thread about it. I think they have developed a way to do it, but it is tethered and reboots often so there is no point. IMO they should release it anyway so that others can test stuff, but that is up to them. Hopefully they will release the new custom kernel thing that has been hinted at in previous posts soon.

Thoughts on this being exploited on sammy?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Very unlikely. I can get access to /data but I don't remember seeing anything from the website, but who knows? You never see what's in front off you. I know the method I figured out have a 80% change to work if we can get someone to build a customer kernel from out souce with calibration with me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Chris2708:
Someone help this man, wish I could do something to help you out glad to see your still working on it though!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] jzanderson09:
Hello everyone. I'm new to XDA. I have an SM-N920A (Note 5 AT&T variant). I really want to get rid of the AT&T firmware and install the T-mobile version. Is it possible to use the tethered root if made available (unlocked bootloader) long enough to allow flashing the SM-N920T firmware without having the locked bootloader stopping me to switch firmwares? Both networks operate off of the same frequency ranges (from what I can see) and are GSM. My phone is already carrier unlocked and I use MetroPCS now, I just want to use wifi calling and AT&T takes FOOOORRREEEEVVVER to release updates. They just released Marshmallow finally, Nougat will take forever and they will load a bunch of bloatware crap on there per usual.

I guess maybe the international firmware would work too. Long story short and rant aside, can I use a tethered root to unlock the bootloader and at least attempt to switch firmwares? Then I don't have to deal with this locked bootloader and crappy AT&T firmware garbage.

Sorry if this has already been answered or addressed, but I'm desperate to cut the AT&T ties once and for all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] tdevaughn:
Short version is..... you have a locked boot loader . You cannot install any other firmware on your phone. You have WiFi calling on att, was in the Sept release
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] jzanderson09:
The wifi calling only functions on an AT&T network with an AT&T sim though, right? I tried to activate it even after setting up the e911 address to no avail.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Only works with AT&T CSC files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
Could this be of any help? http://arstechnica.com/security/201...oot-android-phones-is-now-a-thing/?comments=1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] killernos:
Rowhammer could in turn could work but it could still write back to the system or even kernel, that could cause the phone to not boot or cause frequent crashes, need TechNyne66 to look at this I still don't have my system up and running just haven't had the time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] dpwguenther:
Here's a video of it working on the LG nexus 5 running 6.0.1 with the latest October security patch [youtube]x6hL-obNhAw[/youtube]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Probably not on 6.0.1 for our note 5 as it looks like /data is needed which we can only access with ENG kernel. But I will look into it tonight on 5.1.1 since I have yet to update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] cdmvirt:
so theres no root method for ATT on MM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
No not as of yet.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] suicide_trend:
Have not rooted device yet,

I am however comfortable with compiling under linux and troubleshooting

Had an idea the other day.

You have ability to obtain a temporary root and make /system RW correct. (mount -o remount,rw /system)

if so you can try to make permissive by editing build.prop or similar correct,

however upon reboot, the kernel or bootloader has reset the config to selinux back to secure correct?

if you edit the build.prop and then when complete save it and run shell command command

chattr +i /system/build.prop

to the file to make it immutable then even the owner (root) cannot edit it, move it, delete, rename etc.

Dont know if that accomplishes anything but worth a shot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] hyper395:
Maybe some can get something from depixel8 script by beaups that unlocks the Pixel's bootloader.

Step 1) Install fastboot and adb on your PC, ensure both are working with your Pixel. We will not supply directions nor support for this; you can find many guides online that will help you on this step.

Step 2) Run "adb push dePixel8 /data/local/tmp", "adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/dePixel8" and finally run the program "adb shell /data/local/tmp/dePixel8"

Step 3) Wait for the phone to reboot to the bootloader. If it is not rebooting you can try to run various apps until it does, or you may have to reboot and start over.

Step 4) Issue the command "fastboot oem unlock", this will open up the unlock prompt and warning on the screen. You can now unlock. If you get an error, about unlocking not being allowed, start all over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] mattern1974:
Forgive me if I am totally wrong here but fastboot commands in my experience have only been used in the Qualcomm CPU phones that I have owned or modified. Samsung CPU phones take updates from Odin and/or ADB.

ty for the work

i have read and execute all step on post 1

all ok

but

i have root

i installed app with root

i reboot

and stuck logo at&t

i wrong ? what ?

ty
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] mattern1974:
I believe the kernel and the locked bootloader prohibit this. That's why there is no permanent root. Not sure but you may have to ODIN the newest firmware to get use of the phone back.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] frome901:
I had used the kernel before but didn't root, while i was on it my WIFI wouldn't automatically connect when id get home. Has anyone else noticed that issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Dj-Rodney:
So, this is safe right? No voiding warrenties or tripping flash counters? I'm on the AT&T Next plan, so when the Note 6 comes out, I'll be able to trade in my Note 5 as long as it's in good condition.

Will unrooting and flashing stock kernel make it seem as if I didn't fiddle with the phone at all? Like completely stock! I'm just making sure before I go ahead and do this. I miss root access so much! I know I'll be losing it again once I get the Note 6, but I'd still like to enjoy root for the time being. :)

Edit:

Just read through the 'about root files' and have a better understanding. Hopefully the bootloop situation gets resolved.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
I'll post a how too when I get time

Update: SELINUX set to Premissive allows reboot without loop however bootloader resets permissions. Back to the drawing board. Development team.........you think I could setup a SELinux script and push into adb shell to run on boot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] zyotty:
I tried it and soft bricked my phone. If the phone is off, do I just run the boot script while the phone is off and connect it to the computer?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
I ran it in boot loop and bingo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] gg83744:
Turn your phone on, wait until the at&t logo comes up and open both root boot files. I'm not sure if that's the proper way, but it works for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Just run root-boot.cmd when bootlooping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Oh TechNyne66

Have you tried modding the build.prop and rebooting .......

Line 170 is VERY INSTERESTING!!!!!!!!

ro.build.selinux=1

Maybe is should be

ro.build.selinux=0 ??????

Also pull default.prop

Line 9 is also an enforcement line

I did

adb pull /system/build.prop

Then I modified that line

adb shell rm -rf /system/build.prop

adb push buildprop /system/build.prop

adb pull default.prop

Modified both line 9 to 0 and line 10 to 0

adb shell rm -rf default.prop

adb push default default.prop

And bam SELinux always on boot = 0

Line 10 may already be =0 just make sure it is if not change to =0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] gg83744:
And did that work? I changed ro.build.selinux to 0 and it didn't change anything, but I don't know how to do the rest of that stuff and I don't want to mess with it if I'm not sure it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
After I rebooted I kept my permissive permissions

I think it has more to do with the default.prop then the build.prop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Prfndhatrdofman:
So no bootloop after changing that line in the default.prop?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Our default.prop is different. I'm still on OGG by choice. Setting selinux=0 doesn't seam to work on our note 5 but did work on the tab 4 lollipop I found root for.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Post a copy of OGG firmware and I will work on OGG with you. I just have to back up all my work on this one.

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

After changing the line in default.prop I was always set permissive. There is still that little issue of insecurity that we have to worry about later but as long as you always have your phone that shouldn't be an issue so I would call it a non-issue till that comes up. Samsung pay don't like it and Android pay likes it even less but I don't plan on using them anyways.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Hey, call me crazy but I just got AOJ1 BL, and PB2 AP on the same phone so it's running AOJ1 BL on a PB2 kernel...........I'm going to try some things I have an idea.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] zackr123:
bootloop

When I run root-boot when the att logo appears the script says booting but the phone doesnt boot. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] gg83744:
Use the unroot function in the SuperSU app.

For me I just run both root-boot scripts over and over till the phone boots and I have had no trouble yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
I hate this phone............die n920a die...........down with AT&T I'm starting a revolt lol

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 PM ----------

What if......in theory..... we flashed the BL to the international version.........anyone try it yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] wp4jot:
It's not the phone's fault. It's AT&T's fault...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Guess we have found the one that needs to be figured out........
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] royallove88:
So wait is it untethered root yet?

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ----------

Anyone unlocked the bootloader yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Tattoolady1325:
Reroot after teather?

Once you have completely removed knox using teather root, would you be able then to complete a secondary rooting through kingoroot desktop thus removing the first root then directly rerooting, and possibly enabling the ability to unlock bootloader from there after these steps have been completed? :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Aaron. Edwin79m:
Root my At&t Note 5

Thanks so much for your help with this and for gathering it all together and placing it in one area

this is unfindable anywhere else. I will definitely be spreading word around this was well explained and detailed :o Thanks so much i appreciate it

I could keep going on about how much this helped me.. It fixed my problem that i was having

at first i tried to use odin and update to marshmallow with absolutely no luck it hung up during boot

and after i finally hard reset it came up with some random input in red at the bottom saying something was missing or needed to be done. ( dm-verity verification failed/need to check drk ) This process you came up with fixed this

im most excited that i didnt have to pay 50.00 to some dude online from china to repair my mistakes

CRAP now its locking up during reboot staying on the att logo.. And i repeated the same procedure all over again and it does this same thing... what could be my problem

Okay well after a few frustrating hours of thought and re-installing firmware ive found out one thing that corrects this but also takes me back to were i was.. but doesnt matter at least the phone works.. i uninstalled the superuser program and now the stupid phone reboots easily.. i do not understand why this phone acts like this and is doing this but whatever..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] kuzco9x:
Thanks for the very detail TUT, but for the 1st time, SU was installed but I can't use Titanium or root explorer, do the 2nd time, stuck at ATT logo? Why?:eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] MuddyWildFlower13:
Hi I am looking to root my AT&T Note 5 N920A build number MMB29K. N920AUCS4CPK1 running Android 6.0.1....... I have never rooted a phone and this one seems to be complicated. Is there a step by step guide for this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] mattern1974:
No steps to follow, my friend. AT&T version is locked down by bootloader and locked kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] royallove88:
Is anyone working on unlocking the bootloader? Any way to talk to att to get it unlocked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
It will never happen. They tried to break the coding on the att note 3 when it came out. Even talking to att won't get nobody anywhere on this issue because att requested a locked bootloader but it's more of a Samsung deal..almost all the devices in my Sig that i still own and use here and there are either tmo or international devices a few att are in the mix..

Samsung Note 5 N920C
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
:cyclops: looks like y'all know what your talking about
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
I wish I had a clue to Samsung's security crap.....lol but you have to look at the extra layers of security. Well you know I forgot how far you got with it and how many times you fixed your device. But you did manage to get farther along then Samsung thought someone could. The only chance we might have would be safestrap but coding the the two together is beyond me. I still have my att note 5 but I also bought the international note 5C didn't want to deal with t mobiles unlock app like I did with tmo LG v10 so I'm just going to buy international devices until they lock them. So what are your real thoughts on this att n5 device (maybe or never) lmao..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] JeSTeRH4CK3D:
Sorry about my sarcasm I was on this project for awhile and the 2nd layer of security blocked me and the 500 times I repaired my phone sucked so I had to part ways........I eventually kernel rooted my phone with a Ubuntu style kernel exploit and it seemed to get me the furthest but brick wall again so I gave up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
Wasn't looking at it being sarcasm. I know you gave it 100% and a few others. It's just getting the point across to other users don't hold your breath waiting on root and unlock bootloader. Thanks for trying.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
Kexec will works but no one wants to work on it. I already compiled it and we just need a custom kernel with support but no dev will respond and I can't get anything to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
Deleated
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
I was trying to find my notes I had for this device. I can't remember the boot order. A modified kernel with kexec might fall in play it will boot from ram well I know vary little on kexec. I'm trying to remember where ram comes in play from a hard boot without blowing a fuse. I think you are wanting to use kexec as a way to boot into system without doing a hard boot and going thru all the security checks it's harder for me to write it out than to explain it in person...lol. did you talk with overdrive yet to see what he thought. This may work but still a lot of work....

Plus for the people reading this kexec will not unlock the bootloader just a way to boot back up in kernel from ram..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
No one will respond.

Yes it's to bypass a hard boot and gets booted when kernel boots AFTER all security so no rechecks are to happen. Then loading custom kernel from sd. I have notes somewhere all written out how the boot ordered works and where it should boot and be called but I can't get anything else made other then the kexec bin files. Everything else I'm at a lose. We should be able to boot a custom kernel by loading it from sd to ram with a hot boot. No bootloader. In theory this will give us fully root, just no one is willing to get on board and help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
[MENTION=6789993]Lanc-City[/MENTION] has done kernel work for Samsung devices adding ux bits to other kernels to work with note 7 ports and does good work I uses the reworked kernels he has done on a lot of ports overdrive always has his hands full. I would try Lanc-city if you haven't talked to him yet.. I'm getting ready to build another Linux setup here in a month I pulled my last setup out of my laptop I'm just going to build another desktop for Linux.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] ps170:
Confused, just want some clarification

I just want to make sure I understand what this does. In essence, if I complete the steps completely correctly, I will be able to have a phone that is rooted, can use rooted apps, and maybe through the process of flashing a Nougat rom and using the xposed android n-ify module, install assistant. The only drawback is that I can't let the phone shut off, run out of battery, otherwise the phone will be stuck in a boot loop that can only be broken by hotbooting the phone. Did I get that all right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] KennyLG123:
Like temp root..you can hot boot and not bootloop. It's because of selinux in bootloader. Besides there is no roms for this device if you want nougat you would have to wait for stock. If the device rebooted you would have to rerun the scripts again. But not all rooted apps worked...i still have my 920a too but I also got a 920c to tinker with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] TechNyne66:
It's basically useless for the end-user. It's here mostly for development of possible full root. Which again I will say we can if someone will help me with the damn coding! I already have tons of layers written out to make this work but have a hard time with being free to do it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] parkerj7uc:
I wish I knew how, I would help.

Hey guys. I come from the Verizon forums. Just wanting to pick some brains. We finally got ourselves an ENG kernel, and everything installs fine. However, some weird issues come up like missing wifi passwords and such. Also, when we try to remount /system as RW, the whole phone freezes and kernel is no longer communicating with dmesg. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks so much in advance for any help or suggestions.

Do we have to be on 5.1.1. or is there a way to do this on 6.0.1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Skull97:
Well, you MUST on 5.1.1 to use this method. Our developer is trying his best to bring us full root for 6.0.1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] VortexPCgamer:

Have you choose the right Xposed version (Unofficial Xposed for Samsung)? If you have so sorry I can't help.
