Sigh - have at it. It would be great to see that energy directed at more plausible exploits which requires an understanding of likely vulnerabilities. On a positive note I'm sure you are learning quite a bit which ultimately may lead to a deeper interest in information security. It's a great profession.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
I am very much aware of what you are saying. And I am sure the same goes the other way.

We need scripts. There are none. I have no clue how you create them. Do you? There are a dozen or so we could try but no one who has been commenting, can write any. I'd be more than happy to do so if I knew how. Until then, we have to make do with what we can think of. Trying never hurt anyone.
[Fire General] DB126:
Scripts aren't the issue. But as you said (in so many words) we agree to disagree on the viability of this effort. Best of luck.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
Sure. I doubted it would work when we first suggested it. I knew it was a long shot. But to try is to learn. I have other things I'm trying to work on. So as bummed as I am, there is other work to be done.

Anyone have a chance to look over the Ice Box permissions? Is there an avenue there to at least get it to work?
[Fire General] steve8x8:
Can we focus back on the device *hardware*?

Here's a number of questions I couldn't find consistent answers to:

Did anyone, with any device, ever succeed in corrupting the RPMB partition, by accident or on purpose?

Did anyone, for any MTK device, have a closer look at RPMB access from what we call "the bootloader" (i.e. little kernel, preloader, or tz), and which checks are performed in terms of anti-rollback *and* consistency of contents? (I remember a few names for the latter, but did we actually learn anything beyond the text of the patent application?)

There has been a suggestion that A*n wouldn't throw away a Fire with a bad flash, but AFAIK there's no JTAG. Anything else close to that?

For another device, there was a - USB? SDcard? HDMI? - JTAG adapter. Could this work, and if so, how?

Would it be possible to boot "something" from the SDcard, signed or unsigned? (Any hints in console logs?)
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
1) I don't think so, but if so, it's buried deep in the threads here. I've been hanging around for like 8 months or something and I've never seen anything.

2) I've seen bits here and there re bootloader. I don't think anything was done beyond the general peek-a-boo, but again, it would be buried. But yes I do recall something.

3) No idea what JTAG is.

I had an idea a while back, if it would be possible to install say a Linux OS over the top of the current OS, aka alongside, without root using an SDcard or something.

I also thought about USB OTG, which I asked in the HD 8 forums. I've read it's possible to hack one android with another, providing you have a USB OTG cable. There are some available online and I know that both my XT907 phone and my tablet support USB OTG (There are several apps to test if OTG is available on your device).

There is also the option of still trying to get device owner status back. I've tried just about everything I can to try and get it back. Only thing I can do is make the tablet CPU happy that I used ADB to issue admin status to Ice Box (yes I am aware I can do that in settings. I thought ADB would have more of an authority effect). I have NOT yet tried:

-Test Device Policy Control (Test DPC) App. Requires Android Studio and Gradlew.

-Supposedly when you factory reset, at the language select screen, the first screen you can interact with, you can use ADB to provision an app for device owner. See number 2 here, though this link is helpful all around.

-Merge "Set device admin on dpm set-device-owner command" into lmp-dev

-Android Shell Tricks: Using Mass Provisioning as an Example, Part 3

[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
Also For the signature I am sure you have to install the framework into APKtool. Not even sure if I am installing the right one. But pull and install:

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk /xxx

(x being the apktool directory. I found it helpful to copy and paste ADB into APKtool directory as well).

apktool if framework-res.apk

That installs the Amazon framework into APKtool as a basis to decompile and build. The reference to installing the framework is here along with other instructions.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
I think we were doing this wrong...well not wrong, but not right. If you read the link above regarding framework, you'll see, we haven't been resigning the APKs. Somehow the signature needs to be replaced into the APK and I don't think APKtool is doing that. If that's the case, we're just missing signature files. So we would have to resign them. See this reference on how we are to resign APKs.

In /data/system, is the hexdump of both the private and public keys of apps you installed onto your device. I still haven't figured that part out. It also contains other info such as permissions.

And there's this as well:

And here is an example of a packages.xml file and it's private keys.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:
In other words, if you have a rooted device, try to install any of the Amazon APKs we've been trying to modify. If you can, you'll be able to go to packages.xml and get the signatures.
[Fire General] Joyesh:
I actually forgot to check back on my own thread. You guys have seemingly made some progress, I'm getting a new phone soon so I can root my older phone and install those amazon packages and check the xml file for you.

Will be back with the xml file soon (hopefully)

edit: i've looked around forever and can't find any root exploits for my phone, so yeah, that's not going to happen.
[Fire General] DragonFire1024:

[Wileyfox Swift] Stretch84:
Hi is there a step by step guide to installing please
[Wileyfox Swift] G-up@94:
First u need a unlocked bootloader and twrp recovery.

Then download the ROM and gapps prefer opengapps arm64 nano ( I use micro ) .

Then flash twrp. Boot it by pressing power + volume - when phone off. Then in twrp go to wipe. Select wipe system data cache and slide to confirm. Then go back. Click on install . select the ROM then again install more zip select gapps then swipe to confirm. Wait to finish then click reboot system.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
Installed MM ROM but now can't change 3-button headset functions to MEDIA_NEXT & PREV

I've just installed a new 6.0.1 ROM on my Note 3 N9005 (MagMa-NX UX8.5 Amazing S8 Edition #1 in case it makes a difference) to replace my original stock/rooted KitKat which I've been happily using since I bought the phone several years ago (but now several of my apps need 5.0+ :( ).

However I've encountered an issue which used to be really simple to fix in KitKat via a quick parameters file edit. All I want to do is modify the action of the +/- keys on my three-button headset from the Samsung default of duplicating the volume rocker buttons, to instead providing MEDIA_NEXT and MEDIA_PREV functions for track control.

In the past, I simply edited the /system/usr/keylayout/generic.kl file to make the headset buttons act as track controls while the on-device hardware rocker keys remained as volume controls. Perfect! To do it, I just commented out the two 114/115 volume lines and then updated further down to point them to the MEDIA_ functions, as follows:

# key 114 VOLUME_DOWN

# key 115 VOLUME_UP

...

key 115 MEDIA_NEXT # <--- the original number was 163

key 164 MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE

key 114 MEDIA_PREVIOUS # <--- the original number was 165

However when I do this on this new marshmallow ROM (which is based on Samsung N7/S8 ROMs) it works, but changes BOTH sets of buttons to become track control functions - i.e. the headset buttons AND the ones on the side of the phone both become track+ and track- buttons.

I've tried various headset button controller apps but none seem to work as I want. I've also run a KeyEvent Display app, and both the on-phone and headset buttons appear to be returning the same key scancodes (it shows as 24 for the '+' buttons and 25 for '-'). Same happens in Xposed Additions, it doesn't know which location of button is being pressed.

Could someone let me know how to differentiate between the three-button headset and the on-device volume buttons, or point me to an app which they know works for this function on a Samsung-based marshmallow ROM? Thanks!

Andre
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplatfus:
You could try PBMC KEY Chains with Xposed.

Please let me know if it helps. I used with multiple scenarios like in picture attached. View attachment 4195026
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
I actually gave up and rolled back to a Lollipop ROM which is installing now. Does that app handle three-button headsets too though?

Andre
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amplatfus:
It handles only headset button by remapping to different actions depending on your pressing type. Like press, double press, press and hold, hold and press, etc to actions choosed. You could take a look at my screenshot. Actions are active even with screen off.

You need to be rooted and requires xposed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
Bugger. I rolled my phone back to Lollipop rather than Marshmallow and that's not working either. :( I can change the effect of both the on-device keys AND the cable buttons together, but not independently like I could in KitKat (so the phone keys control volume and headset +/- keys give me easy track/album control).

Does anyone know of a kernel or ROM that supports this? (I assume the nasty Samsung code is in the kernel, but not sure).

Andre
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
Results from KeyTest app on Lollipop ROM (very close to stock):

Phone Vol+ / Vol- buttons):

Keycode: 24

KeyEvent: KeyEvent { action=ACTION_DOWN, keyCode=KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP, scanCode=115, metaState=0, flags=0x8, repeatCount=0, eventTime=*******, downTime=*******, deviceId=6, displayId=0, source=0x101 }

Keycode: 25

KeyEvent: KeyEvent { action=ACTION_DOWN, keyCode=KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN, scanCode=114, metaState=0, flags=0x8, repeatCount=0, eventTime=*******, downTime=*******, deviceId=6, displayId=0, source=0x101 }

Headset +/- buttons:

Keycode: 24

KeyEvent: KeyEvent { action=ACTION_DOWN, keyCode=KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP, scanCode=115, metaState=0, flags=0x8, repeatCount=0, eventTime=*******, downTime=*******, deviceId=14, displayId=0, source=0x101 }

Keycode: 25

KeyEvent: KeyEvent { action=ACTION_DOWN, keyCode=KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN, scanCode=114, metaState=0, flags=0x8, repeatCount=0, eventTime=*******, downTime=*******, deviceId=14, displayId=0, source=0x101 }

As you can see, this is returning the same scancodes (114/115) but with a different quoted deviceID (6 vs 14) for the phone vs. headset buttons - which I assume is what I'll somehow need to test for.

Andre
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewilley:
As the headset and on-device buttons are returning different deviceIDs, it must be possible to hack this somehow - especially as it's really easy to do with the stock KitKat ROM on the same Galaxy Note 3, so it must be a firmware issue of some kind not a hardware limitation.

No further ideas anyone?

It won't unless you either 1) Use magisk as mentioned or 2) use a custom kernel with SafeyNet patches.

When you unlock your bootloader, the prop (which you can read using a terminal emulator and typing getprop) has a flag called verifiedbootstate. If it returns anything but green SafeyNet will fail.

Try the latest stable version of Magisk. It worked for me a few days ago while the beta wasn't (beta is working for me lately though).

You might want to reflash stock boot partition before flashing Magisk, I don't know if it will make a difference...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] oowaymike:
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried the stable version with no luck as well. I'll wait for the next beta version, and if that doesn't do the trick ill try reflashing the stock partition. If anyone finds a custom kernel that gets around safety net I'd really appreciate it.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Eric214:
I'm curious to know why one would unlock the bootloader if not at least to install custom recovery and root.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] yubimusubi:
I don't know if this is OP'S reason, but you can boot TWRP without actually installing it... So you can take nandroid backups of an otherwise stock device.

Also, unlocking bootloader wipes your phone, so if you want it stock for now but think you might root in the future you won't have to deal with that...

TBH though, SafetyNet is working as advertised by failing an unlocked bootloader. We like to have our cake and eat it too.
