That's good, i hope you test more to see if is a really stable root or you got some reboot.

Btw ive updated the apk and the adb implementing the persistent selinux installation.

In the script it will ask you to install.

In the apk you have the option in tools.

Can you check if the files inside /data/security/current/* are the same that in /

I mean if you can make a md5 or something like that:

md5 /data/security/current/*
5c3225a6ccdcacbb2c631f990db841a5 /data/security/current/file_contexts
fcecbb9279a94183261526fdf1d440ad /data/security/current/mac_permissions.xml
0fd3d113b36f441c86f462bb8c7e936f /data/security/current/property_contexts
23c591f5d7b6b557b3be68aac1940989 /data/security/current/seapp_contexts
daacb760db7b4bd2f118b28365277846 /data/security/current/selinux_version
82f080faa15f6ce843831434b4325c50 /data/security/current/sepolicy
6e84939a5be7884612022fa74dad867f /data/security/current/service_contexts

And check if are the same with the root /:

md5 /file_contexts /property_contexts /seapp_contexts /selinux_version /service_contexts /etc/security/mac_permissions.xml
5c3225a6ccdcacbb2c631f990db841a5 /file_contexts
0fd3d113b36f441c86f462bb8c7e936f /property_contexts
23c591f5d7b6b557b3be68aac1940989 /seapp_contexts
daacb760db7b4bd2f118b28365277846 /selinux_version
6e84939a5be7884612022fa74dad867f /service_contexts
fcecbb9279a94183261526fdf1d440ad /etc/security/mac_permissions.xml

I want to be sure that those files that you have already are specific rules from the vendor, because in this folder are the specific rules in some updates of sepolicy.

---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 PM ----------

I've made an update in the apk and adb versions of the exploit, are available in the main thread.

Now the adb and apk exploit detects if the selinux is already loaded so don't exploit init anymore.

The instructions are the same but there are one option more in the apk:

-Install selinux permissive

And in the adb script it will ask you to install selinux permissive as well.

So for more stable root you have to enable this option in the apk or in the adb just once after root, and reboot.

The next times that you get root will be stable, not need to "clean init" or click install selinux permissive anymore.
[E 2015 General] edjocute:
Yes, I did make sure the files were the same beforehand.

The main stability issue I have is the frequent reboots when installing/updating large playstore apps. Does not happen without root. This is with the latest permissive selinux method.

On the other hand, I have yet to encounter a reboot when opening apps, which is what happened previously.
[E 2015 General] jcpowell:
Idk where you are seeing stability. Even with the be app I get reboots and freezing jar the exact same. It's always within seconds or a minute.
[E 2015 General] edjocute:
That's unfortunate. Which build version are you running?
[E 2015 General] kryz:
Have you tried the new apk, and just after get root, go to tools and "Install selinux permissive" option?

Maybe it will reboot but the next time should be more stable.

---------- Post added at 04:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 AM ----------

Well, maybe we can discover what's going on when you get reboot.

Can you have a session with logcat in the computer or just redirecting to a file to see some light.

I've got some problems also installing apps, but i fixed in the new apk, i caught the problem in logcat and dmesg, about some permissions in selinux, maybe is easy to fix.

For the rest the root seems pretty stable with all the settings enabled and working.

Bootloader unlocked

I can gain access to bootloadee on my xt1528 and when I try to flash twrp recovery using adb, windows says it does not have the driver FASTBOOT SURNIA S. Does anybody have it. Would be really helpful if I could get a link to it.

---------- Post added at 12:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 PM ----------

Also in bootloader it says System status: modified. Any idea what it means? Noon here :(
[E 2015 General] 3max3:
Can someone try and report about this method https://github.com/alephsecurity/initroot ? Can't believe no one ever tried this one on xt1528... It is said that Moto G4 Play XT1609 (harpia verizon with the same SD410) can be exploited. Also reports for other Motorola phones you can find by the link above.
[E 2015 General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
The xt1528 will most likely never be fully rooted. Since its release in early 2015, developers, enthusiasts, code writers and hackers from all over the world have tried. You will run across many individuals online who claim to be able to exploit the locked down bootloaders of the xt1528, xt1609, etc. However, you will not find a single one who can prove it. Members of the Russian 4PDA community were offering bounties in the thousands of dollars for anybody who could successfully exploit the xt1528 bootloader and achieve full root. Due to the extremely high level of encryption used for locking the bootloader, an exploit is as close to impossible as you can get without outright calling it impossible.

The link you provided is indeed a legitimate method for performing a tethered jailbreak on many OEM locked Moto devices. However, this is merely another temp root method, as root will not survive a reboot. The key work in the link you provided is "ephemeral" unrestricted root access, meaning short acting, temporary, not permanent.
[E 2015 General] 3max3:
Thank you for reply. I am also skeptical about rooting this device right now but who knows .I think this device worth trying.

Also as member of 4PDA i can't recall any bounty or special interest in this particular device. xt1528 just wasn't popular around there (Russia). Moreover, in Ukraine this phone was much more popular due to availability of CDMA carrier with identical to Verizon`s 3G bands.

As for the method , ephemeral root is only the first stage : " (First stage exploit: Tethered jailbreak

This exploit gains an ephemeral unrestricted root access on the device) ".

Second stage is: "This exploit gains a persistent root access on the device. "
[E 2015 General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
The xt1528 and the Lenovo Tab3 (TB3-850F) are probably the two most popular devices I've ever seen at PDA -- during that time period anyway. Several groups of hackers, including GeoHot, attempted exploiting the xt1528 bootloader. I can personally recall at least two bounties equalling over $2000 each. I'll go public now and offer you $1000 (PayPal or Bitcoin, your choice) if you can attain permanent root on the xt1528. (We can use Skype or a similar platform for verification.) To be clear on the definition of "permanent root," I am speaking of root that will consistently and reliably survive all reboots. The method is up to you -- systemless or system-wide. I'm saying it cannot be done, but I'll pay well for somebody to prove me wrong.

Yes, the "persistent" root mentioned in the GitHub source refers to root that will persist until the device is rebooted. This is emphasized because many of the early temp root methods used on the xt1528 resulted in random reboots, thus killing temp root on reboot. The term persistent is thus denoted to emphasize a stable, persistent temporary root that will not result in sporadic and random reboots. Root will survive until the device undergoes a reboot.

Permanent root has been attempted on the Verizon Surnia since early 2015, and attempted by some of the best coders on the planet. If they can't do it, it cannot be done. I've ran the GitHub tethered jailbreak on my xt1609 and an xt1527 (AT&T Surnia). It's a good clean temp root exploit, but temp root is as far as is goes. It is an exploit requiring a tethered connection for a jailbreak type temporary root. It does not survive reboot.

But please do not take me the wrong way -- I am rooting for you 100%. However, you will make the 5000th individual to undergo this seemingly futile task. Much simpler to pay $20 on eBay for a good xt1526, unlock the bootloader, and root it. Good luck and God Speed. May The Force be with you.
[E 2015 General] 3max3:
Thank you for make it clear for me! I definitely missed the moment of these attempts (especially GeoHot's) . I thought only several people from XDA tried to unlock this device. But if it's true , no way i gonna do with this thing something special (apart for hard bricking it).
[E 2015 General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Hey, for real my friend, you can find some very nice xt1526 (Sprint, Boost, Virgin) Moto E LTE devices on eBay in the $15 to $20 range. It is supported for bootloader unlocking by Motorola's online portal. The Surnia is a great device for modding, tweaking, flashing, and everything custom Android related. I love mine and, to this day, it's one of my favorite devices for trying new ROMs, kernels, mods, etc. It's amazing how this low budget device continues to receive development support after 4 1/2 years since its release. I would strongly recommend getting one if possible.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Messerschmitt262:
I am looking at a few designs but not sure which ones offer the best protection. Some of my lists are:

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01HHAPIZC/ref=twister_B01MG8YWJ8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/152202213435?var=451393076924

Was even looking at flip cases

https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01EHP3STS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.ca/KaiTeLin-Asus-Zenfone-ZE552KL-Case/dp/B01KU3NZ58

Altough the problem with flip cases I might have is that once open, they protrude beyond the width of the phone, since the hinge is lined with the back side. So it makes it awkward to hold.

So do you guys have any opinions or experiences with any of these? Are you recommending any other? I'm inclined to get the Nillkin. Looks very similar to the Ringke case, but at almost a 1/3 of the price. My main objective with the cases would be very good corner protection, since if dropped, phones tend to land on the corners and a rised enough lip that it will prevent scratches on the screen when placed face down or scratches on the camera, since it does protrude outwards, when placed on it's back. Only problem with non flip cases is that the screen tends to get scratched as you keep the phone in the pocket.

As a reference, I had the Ionic Guardian case for my Nexus 4 and it protected the device really well. Loved the extra material at corners.

http://www.lazada.co.id/calandiva-s...transaction_id=102652ab51bc113472d447cebc3f52

This case offers really good protection with extra inner fins inside act as shock absorber, even protruding camera is nicely covered. The thing is it tends to get yellowish after some time. If you somehow manage to get the grey one nearby your location, it'll be a decent choice.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] shade0723:
I first went with Nillkin sparkle flip cover https://www.nillkin-case.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=4911 . It is functional, the Asus Cover app works fine, it offers decent protection for back and sides but it doesn't cover the upper and lower sides leaving them vulnerable. The material on the back is hard plastic. It is very hard to remove the phone from the case and it even scratched the paint on the upper left corner while doing so. The reasons I abandoned it is because it's not very comfortable to use, you can't hang a call while flip is closed, it's too sparkly in some lighting conditions. The black one is actually a shade of gray and It gets all kinds of marks on it without actually being scratched. The flip is too rigid and it tends to close automatically or refuse to close depending on what you did last. The materials look cheap and it can't even be described as "leather imitation". The leather version looks better though. I still keep it for the sake of diversity but now I'm using http://nillkin.org/smartphones-acce...ssories/nillkin-asus-zenfone-3-ze520kl-nature . It's far more practical and also offers decent protection without making the phone look a lot bulkier. I also installed a Nillkin tempered glass screen protector and I guess that's all the protection I need without sacrificing the aesthetics too much.
