Hello Sir, noob question. If i want to go back to stock rom. can I just flash this through recovery?

you can not..you have to flash via bootloader/fastboot

Hello,

Today I have found myself the victim of Stagefright. Specifically CVE-2015-6602. The attacker gained remote code execution and attempted to copy all my data to a server. Luckily nothing sensitive was on the phone since it was my test unit. Still, this is important to note that attackers are still looking at exploiting older phones.

The phone in question was on android 5.0 : OptimalROM 15-5, with PB1 firmware. I had applied all the available security zips, still leaving two stagefright vulnerabilities:

CVE-2015-3864 (Mediaserver)

CVE-2015-6602 (libutils)

Please be aware if you are on a locked bootloader and choose to stay on older ROMs to keep root you are putting yourself at risk.

To see if you could have suffered the same fate as me if you were the attacker's target, use Zimperium's SF detector.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zimperium.stagefrightdetector

This thread aims to provide flashable zips or manual instructions to patch any additional vulnerabilities existing in 5.0 that have been fixed in newer versions or 6.0.

Interesting. What ROM are you on and what firmware?

Is the ROM based on that firmware?

Edit:

Thank you for this valuable information.

Stock PB1 ROMs are not vulnerable to stagefright.

This will make things easier for ROMs based on pre-PB1!

It is because of your post that I easily found a way to patch stagefright on OG5 and below based ROMs!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] shylands:
Seen lots of guides for US Sprint Models etc etc to root, if I follow the same procedures on my device will it be okay? The guides claiming knox will not be effected is this true? Also, if it does go wrong, how hard is it actually to reset factory settings?

Used to love rooting etc then got stuck with an iPhone for an year.

S7 info:

Model: SM-G930F

Build number: MMB29K.G930FXXU1BPH6

Android: 6.0.1

Any replies would be greatly apperciated, take it easy folks :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] GuestD0224:
Currently we can't root exynos version without tripping knox. Since you are in the UK you shouldn't worry about the warranty though, as neither rooting nor tripping knox will affect it. You will lose the ability to use Samsung pay.

Follow the guides, as long as you use exynos methods you'll be fine.

This may seem kinda stupid but would it be possible for me to replace the imx298 main camera and replace it with a pixel imx 398 or an s7 camera?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
A) You could have to make sure it fits in the same space.

B) Makes sure it has the same connections.

C) You'll have to rewrite your phone's software to get info on and off the camera AND how to interpret that data once it is off and apply the appropriate tweaks.

Overall, you'd be better off just buying something with that module in there if it's that important to you.

Why are people being such asses? Lol if you're not going to give a productive answer then shut up.

I found a thread from 2013 which basically says no it's impossible without re-writing the kernel, BUT it was possible with the xperia neo where sony released the same phone with two different camera modules. Although it's unlikely with the v20.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zacharee1:
I had a huge noise reduction issue when I first bought my T-Mobile V20. Full bright shots with trees would have so much noise reduction applied, the trees looked exactly like oil paintings.

I called T-Mobile and got it replaced, and the new phone still does the noise reduction, but it's way better (less than half the amount). You might want to try that if you can. The V20 seems to be a bit inconsistent...

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] StargazerLuka:
So i just got a new moto g4 plus XT1642 (UK amazon version) and so of course the first thing i had to do was install a custom rom, so i followed a guide here to unlock it and install TWRP which went fine until i flashed a new firmware, I dont know if i somehow installed the wrong one but now it wont go past the "checking connection" screen on setup without crashing (sometimes it doesnt even get past the welcome language screen) I have tried flashing the stock firmware but it just does the same thing no matter which one i try (XT1642_ATHENE_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip is the right one i think?)

If anyone could help me get back to marshmellow it started with then i promise i wont mess around with it again :3

Thanks for any help you can give.

Edit: Okay so I finally just went to do the thing i started out to do which was to install the Resurrection Remix rom (http://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-0-t3507275) so I just thought that maybe if i got it installed it might fix what problems i was having and yeah sure enough i followed what i was supposed to flash first which was (Moto_G4_Plus_XT1643_ATHENE_MPJ24.139-63_Stock_Img) btw and then flashed Resurrection Remix and it just started working again, everything seems fine but I'm worried I might have broken something with all my puttering around with its inside ya know?

But the main thing is phone calls work, texts work, it rooted itself magically, can install unsigned apks and such, wifi works and so does the fingerprint sensor which i heard people were having issues with. So should i just not look for problems and enjoy it maybe? I'm glad i got it sorted im some fashion at least :D
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] StargazerLuka:
So I HAVE now noticed that some apps seem to hang/crash sometimes, epecially games, not sure if it has to do with my puttering around though :P Is there anything I can do to check that everything is working ok? any programs that scan for errors or something? :P

Happy its working don't get me wrong but no issues would be best ^^

If you're running rr and everything works you don't need to do anything just stick with it.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] StargazerLuka:
Hey, thanks for the input, I did use that when i was having issues but it still caused that crashing at the connection screen issue sso i dont know why it would work for you and not me, perhaps i needed to get it to a working state before i could downgrade again? I dont really want to try it out now and see, the crashing issue seems to be infrequent so its possible its a different issue (software conflicts or ram overusage maybe?). I'll keep using it and see what issues develop :)
[Touch GSM Accessories] Aaron McCarthy:
Hi,

Recently I've read a few posts online about different versions of tomtom. My question is what is the main difference between the most current version released which is aparently 6.035 and the version I have on my phone...6.010?

Does anybody know? Are there more options in the 6.035 version or is it just a random release to fix bugs people have had cause really.. I havnt had any bugs what so ever with my version and dont plan on upgrading unless I have to... or unless this other version has something that mine doesnt.

Thanks in Advance!
[Touch GSM Accessories] makaber:
Hi,

tomtom never released this version. youre using stolen software!
[Touch GSM Accessories] Aaron McCarthy:
I'm running Tomtom 6.01. That is a legal version. I'm not aware of the legality of 6.035 so I wouldn't know if its a hack or not. I was just wondering if it was any different then my version that's all
[Touch GSM Accessories] ae303hf:
My experience with TomTom on various Windows Mobile devices is that version 6.00 is somehow slow and bugged on certain hardware, and that's why 6.010 exists. But it had a short life and was soon upgraded as well.

Most common on the field are 6.020 and 6.030, which are basically the same good piece of software. 6.030 is just 6.020 with some compatibility enhancements for certain devices (see TomTom site for details).

Most recent version I know of is 6.032 (another compatibility update based on 6.020). Therefore if you have 6.020 there's no real need to upgrade. 6.035, if not a fake, is likely a leaked build and I'd stay away from that.
[Touch GSM Accessories] Aaron McCarthy:
so basically... Dont upgrade unless I am having issues... which I am not. 6.010 seems to be working fine so if there arent any additional features added why switch right?
[Touch GSM Accessories] acidtension:
And where can I download those official releases ?

I've recently bought their 50% discounted maps, after the lady on the phone support line (TomTom) told me it would come with software needed to use it. Later, I understood she gave me false information.

I tried downloading one from the internet (I'm afraid it's a hacked version), and didn't need any piracy stuff, as the codes that came with my map perfectly work to legally activate and use the software :)

But I'd like to donwload it from a trustful source, without needing to buy a whole navigator 6 package with the non discounted map (which I already have)... :s

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AC_Mantic:
Hi there,

My device was enrolled in the Android Beta program and received DP2. Similar to a some other posts I've seen here, I was in the middle of updating my apps on the play store when suddenly the phone just halted and rebooted to the Google logo, and then proceeded to bootloop. Today they finally released the OTA for DP2 devices to update to 7.1.1, which I downloaded, booted into recovery, wiped cache, then sideloaded on the off chance that it would fix my issue, but my device is staying in the bootloop.

I have a couple of months of photos that were unfortunately not synced to the cloud that I'd like to pull off the device, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a way I could grab the files off my phone before trying to factory reset; I know, I'm dumb for not having enabled sync and I'll definitely have that automatically done going forward now on a much more often basis. My device is stock and locked (it was unlocked at some point in the past, but I guess the DPs changed that), has developer mode and USB debugging enabled, and I have access to adb/sideload. Any help anyone could provide me would be much appreciated, let me know if there's any other information I should provide.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxguy1:
Try flash the lastest IMG files except system IMG
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AC_Mantic:
Doesn't my device have to be unlocked to flash any IMG files? Unlocking at this point would only cause a data wipe.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxguy1:
You should attempt it as these are official files by Google it worked on previous Nexus devices
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
If you unlocked the bootloader once, it stayed unlocked. In order to unlock the first time you had to enable Dev Mode AND toggle "Enable OEM Unlock", and that setting doesn't change. You can use ADB to push/pull if you are stock. While unlocked you could also install TWRP recovery and use MTP to transfer files back and forth to PC.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AC_Mantic:
Mmm, I would agree with you on the locked setting, but my bootloader says the device is locked, so I must've done a reset along the way or something changed the toggle. I also can't seem to have my machines (Windows 10 or a Mac OS X) list the device by doing adb devices, only fastboot devices; I've tried this in both the bootloader and recovery, would there have been a chance that flashing the OTA reset the USB debugging enable check as well? I should note that encryption was enabled on this device.

Hey S7 Edge users,

I'm one of the editors of the XDA News Portal. Recently, we've been collecting data to put together a comparison of fast charging technologies to see which technology is the fastest with/without load. We've tested on a wide variety of devices and have covered most of the fast charging technologies - save Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging for the Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge. We do not want to publish any results without including ALL of the popular fast charging technologies (as some other websites have done), so we were desperately looking for some help collecting data on their devices.

It turns out, though, that only a single member of the XDA Portal team owns a Galaxy S7 - and his is having major issues right now. Yeah, you can tell that we're not big fans of Samsung hardware - a dozen Portal writers and nobody has an S7? Crazy, right? Anyways, that's why I'm posting here - to see if anyone would like to volunteer to participate in some data collection for us. You will of course receive credit in our article for your participation!

Requirements

Must own a Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge

Must own the STOCK Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger

That's it! Collecting data will be very simple on your end - I've automated nearly everything. But if something doesn't work, I need you to be responsive to let me know what's wrong. If you are interested in participating, send me an e-mail or message me on Hangouts at mishaal@xda-developers.com and I'll get back to you with instructions and links to what you'll need to get started.

Is it just me who considers fast charging one of the contributing factors to Exploding Galaxy devices ?

Fast charge = high battery temp = recipe for thermal runaway
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] NJ72:
Purely working on second-hand information, but I heard that it was actually down to lack of expansion space within the chassis of the phone. When in hard use a battery expands slightly, which is normal; if this expansion is kept under too much constriction it can cause an internal short in the battery which then causes the explosion and resulting fire.

Whether or not fast charging was the reason the batteries expanded quicker/ more than Samsung expected is anyone's guess...

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mavi0x:
Dear Community,

I have a demanding question

I wanted to install the Android N beta using the Charles method but it kept failing on me so i decided to unlock the bootloader and install Twrp and flash the update with great succes, then i rooted the device and did a hard factory reset now Twrp and Root are gone so is it safe to relock the bootloader again because i do not want to keep Root options or Twrp in the near future and just want to make the phone stock and official again so that i can receive future firmwares OTA! :good:

Let me explain

I got the Honor 8 FRD-L09 (European version) my latest stock Firmware was FRD-L09C432B131 i tried to update FRD-L09C432B131 to FRD-L09C432B320 via Charles method and via webserver but it kept failing on me, so then as a last resort i decided the only way left to install the FRD-L09C432B320 (Official Android N Firmware) was via TWRP so i then unlocked my bootloader installed TWRP and via TWRP i flashed the official FRD-L09C432B320 Update.zip, after that i did a full hard recovery so TWRP and Root would be removed, so now i'm asking are there any traces of root or twrp left on the device and am i safe to relock the bootloader again since i'm pretty much stock now, this because i only unlocked the bootloader because i wanted to try the firmware so i do not need any root or twrp etc anymore!

Because i want to be extra save i sincerely hope what i wrote above is detailed enough and understandable.

Thanks in Advance!
