MTTY's "wdata" cmd unlocked on SPL 2.03!Can it Unbrick the bricked ones w SPL 2.03??

I have found a way to unlock "wdata" command in bootloader 2.03!

summary:

In bricked hermeses with SPL 2.03 - NO GSM - KITL disabled, the wdata command is locked. I am not good at programing but I want to know if it possible to change the SPL(bootloader) of bricked hermeses with this command in mtty.exe??!!

How to:

1.Use the trinity splxploit -windows by pof (unbrick.bat). Let the program run for some seconds and then just close that.

2.Do not unplug the usb or soft reset the device.

3.Run mtty.exe and type "wdata" the command is unlocked!:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
I wanna know can we erase just the CID by erase command and write a CID value using wdata command?

If it can be done then we can unbrick our hermeses!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
Yes it enable wdata, you don't need to change CID, if you can load OS.nb, then from Windows use SSPL. But real problem is how to load OS.nb via wdata

I soft reset it and it stuck again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
Booted OS

Today my hermes booted os, after soft reset it stuck again. But there is hope, right?

Can you solve No GSM with SD Card Flash?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
Then Copy Hardspl V7 to the sd card and when your mobile booted into os just run that from your device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
Yes, I know that.

If you have similar problem:

1.Leave Hermes without battery for some time, hour or so.

2. DO NOT turn it on, do a HARD RESET*

*If don't work try several times

Glad to hear that.

I am sure that the sulotion for spl 2.03 exists, but we don't know where to find it.

BTW, where is POF & olipro????:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
I made some progress, it stuck at OS screen now. :) It booted os several times today, it is strange that it can boot OS it is IPL 1.04 SPL 2.03. Stil NoGSM

koorosh_bsboys can you hermes boot OS?

Can NoGSM problem be solved with Flashing from SD Card?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
My hermes can't boot into OS. It has stucked on 2nd splash screen (Imate telstra logo) not the OS logo!

How can u boot into OS?

If you find something new then share it with us.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
My HERMES sometimes stuck at second boot scree and sometimes at windows screen, but few times it booted os. Than I put SSPL at microSD, becouse it stuck after few sec when it is on USB. OS is working ok - then I killed it again to SPL 2.03 and today get it back to working OS, No GSM.

What I did to get working OS???

1. Get battery out for about a day.

2. Put the battery in, DON'T POWER ON!!!

3. Do a HARD RESET.

If it don't work try several times.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
Maybe this is the sulotion!!

After reading about what iemi-check unlock patch does to unlock the sim and CID, I think I have found out the solution for SPL 2.03 .

I think we should use the wdata command to flash the hardspl to the device.

The command should be as this :

wdata 6065f 535cd095

and then flash the hardspl.nbh to the device. unfortunately I am not good at programming and i don't know what should be done next to flash .nbh file after issuing the wdata command.

Can somebody help us with this???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
Hmm... I think lnb or lnbs command will load .nb image but you need memory address. I was playing with MTTY and I think that is the main reason I menaged to UNBRICK hermes. It was IPL-1.04 SPL-2.03, Failed at 11% at DOPOD WM6 Upgrade. Now IPL-1.04 SPL 2.30

I flashed 1.38.00.11 radio (Trinity) with CustomRUU and get NONE,NONE instead of NoGSM, I didn't use SSPL, I did it from bootloader. Pof has wrote "use SSPL".

koorosh_bsboys I think you can fix your phone RADIO and OS via JTAG FLASH. I have jtag points for Samsung proc, but dont have it for GSM one, Qualcomm. Maybe people that were developing GPS antenna have jtag points for Qualcomm.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
well, how can u manage to flash that radio???the 2.03 bootloader does not have the lnb or lnbs command!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] igord:
Read the post before, I manage to BOOT OS. --> SSPL--> Flash HARD SPL

Does anyone know how to flash radio, I lost NoGSM, just NONE, NONE. I think that means radio stack is alive and it is not hardware fault. Maybe over MTTY?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] koorosh_bsboys:
can we chat on yahoo??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gsmhackerns:
This Will Not Work I Try....

lnb and lnbs/ls command can b used when your device is Super CID.

The commands lnb and lnbs different -

lnb - load the unsigned code.

lnbs- load signed code -have other structure and headline

------------------

THIS YOU CAN SEE WHEN RUN UNLOCK FROM IMEI CHECK...

pof long time write this:

While this happens, the unlocker does the following:

set 6 ffff

Turns device screen white.

info 3

Get password crypt information.

info 3

Get password crypt information (again).

password xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Authenticates to the bootloader

set 1e 1

This sets the RUU command read/write flag to 1 (unlock).

wdatah 6065f 535cd095

This tries to flash the same HERMIMG_IPL1.01_SPL1.04_ONLY.nbh file signed by MIGsoft which has been flashed before. As this time the device is running on the real 1.04 bootloader and the signature is not from HTC, the bootloader returns "Image Cert is error..." and nothing gets flashed.

set 1e 1

This sets the RUU command read/write flag to 1 (unlock) again.

set 1 0

This sets the operation mode to user

set 5 ffff

This sets the background color white

set 2 1

Sets the back color flag on

shmsg 2 2 "SIM-UNLOCK"

Shows the string "SIM-UNLOCK" on row 2, column 2 of the device screen.

shmsg 8 2 "initializing..."

Shows the string "initializing..." on row 8, column 2 of the device screen.

rtask b

This enters to the Radio Image AT Command interpreter

AT+CGSN

This AT command returns the IMEI of your device. A "0" is returned after which indicates that the command has been executed successfully.

AT

Returns "0" (ok).

retuoR

Exits the AT command interpreter and goes back to normal bootloader.

shmsg 8 2 "unlocking..."

Shows the string "unlocking..." on row 8, column 2 of the device screen.

rtask a

This enters the radio bootloader.

rinfo

Get password crypt information to authenticate to radio bootloader.

rpass \r HTCSxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(4byte-crc)HTCE

This authenticates to the radio bootloader. The device returns "T" meaning success.

rversion

This returns radio bootloader version. The rest of the process can vary depending on what the device returns here:

* For radio bootloader version <= 0106 the command 'rrbmc' will be used to read the device's memory content

* For radio bootloader version >= 0107 the command 'rdpram' will be used to read the device's memory content

* -If rversion is <= 0106

rrbmc x 6D0000 8000

This reads back 32768 bytes (0x8000) of memory content from address 0x6D0000. I put the read contents on 00-rrbmc-6D0000-8000.bin, the 4-byte checksum for this file is "3D 2E 51 98" (hexa).

rwdata 4D0000 800

This sends the the contents of the file 00-rwdata-4D0000-800.bin to the device encapsulated in HTCS+contents+4byteCRC+HTCE. The CRC for the file is "F4 3E 36 04" (hexa).

retuoR

Exits the radio bootloader and goes back to normal bootloader.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdrake01:
I'm on the LG V10, its my first locked bootloader and I hate it. I'm in the market for a new phone, but I'm stuck with verizon. What are the high end VZ phones that have unlocked bootloaders? Would love a pixel or S8, but only if I can do custom roms and kernels. I know verizon is trying to lock all their bootloaders, so what options do I have as of this moment?

Thanks for the help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
1 ditch Verizon lol

maybe find unlockable device that will work on Verizon

Verizon and att are worst at locking bootloaders with no end in sight.

i come from a long line of lgs ad unless u get internet unlockable ones basically no root in sight for them either
[Android Head-Units] Zergo1:
I'm looking at getting an android unit for my 04 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. I don't have canbus in the truck, not sure if reverse gear detection would be a possibility still.

Anyhow, I'm looking on recommendations on which model to get? I'll hope to install Spotify on it, use Google Maps offline for nav (unless there's something better), and pair my iPhone 6S with it as well for calls.

I've done a LOT of reading on these forums, and it sounds like I may have some hiccups and bugs to work through with whatever I get - I'm ok with that (I work as a sysadmin, so I'm technically capable). It sounds like the general consensus is that the Joying Sofia units work well out of the box, but don't expect much for future support. It also sounds like Ownice C500's are fairly decent, have a pretty active community around them.
[Android Head-Units] Zergo1:
Looks like I'll go with Dasaita/Hot-Audio. Seems like they have regular rom releases, and you can use the Malaysk rom on them as well.
[Android Head-Units] Rottgrub:
I just picked up the Dasaita V600 for my VW Beetle with OEM Amp, and it's been a very positive experience so far. Having tested the a bunch of different units, this is the first one that hasn't had any real compromises. Well, aside from cost, as it's almost $100 more than the other units. That said, you definitely get what you pay for here.

The only issue I've encountered is that Android Auto client won't install from Play Store. This isn't really much of an issue with Headunit Reloaded, and AutoMate having basically the same functionality.
[Android Head-Units] BigDog78:
Where do you get the stock rom releases for your head unit??

Thanks in advance.

I rooted the phone (XT1642) using this guide: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/root-systemless-rooting-supersu-2-74-2-t3405772

I'm on 6.0.1 and have been getting the install system update prompt (NPJ25.93-14) every time I turn WiFi on.

Can I just install this or will it remove the rooting I did?

If it removes the root, how do I update to the latest firmware safely and root it?

Alternatively, how do I get rid of the prompt each time I turn WiFi on?

Can I take an image of my phone as it is and revert back to it at any time, and if so, how?

I really don't know what I'm doing and help would be appreciated. :)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tekwarfare:
Thank you very much for the detailed answer. I have tried my best to understand the scene as best I can, but remain unfamiliar with the various approaches.

I have made a backup of my SD Card and used TWRP to create a backup of partitions: System (1983MB), Data (3459MB) and Boot (16MB) and transferred them to my PC

I am able to restore to my old 6.01 configuration with this backup I made provided I have an unlocked bootloader right?

To follow the guide you linked for rooting Android 7.0: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918

Am I correct in saying I would need to unroot my 6.0.1, re-lock the bootloader and then update to the latest firmware via OTA updates? You say to "flash a custom kernel before rooting" but I don't know what this means or how I would do it.

Alternatively, I see the June security patch came out today. Would this be an easier or better way to update than the above method?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tekwarfare:
Here's what I ended up doing:

Updated using the March 2017 fastboot ROM and the instructions you provided.

Flashed the June OTA update files

Flashed the latest TWRP (3.1.1.0) over the stock recovery mode

Flashed ElementalX

Flashed Magisk 13.2

So I now have root access and my apps are still there. Unfortunately trying to install any modules in Magisk via the download section result in a "... has stopped working" message. I flashed the uninstaller and installed 13.1 but still no dice. The benefits of Magisk sounded great but I might just install SuperSU tomorrow instead.

I really appreciated your help, thank you very much :)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
No worries - if you're looking to switch to SuperSU, you'll need to uninstall magisk, then flash your clean stock kernel from your Nougat TWRP backup (flashing just the boot partition from the TWRP backup you made before flashing ElementalX should be okay). Then, you'll have unrooted and have a clean stock kernel - then flash ElementalX and SuperSU.

You'll need a clean stock kernel to remove traces of the previous root - you may have issues with SuperSU otherwise.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tekwarfare:
I think it was a problem with the way the zip files Magisk downloads are packaged, I can get them to install if I repackage the zip file.

Unfortunately, I never realised the xposed framework isn't supported on Nougat yet. I had a lot of quality of life tweaks that are greatly missed. Do you know if it's possible to safely downgrade back to Marshmallow at all?

I found this guide: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/how-to-downgrade-nougat-to-marshmallow-t3487201

But comments mention about future OTA updates maybe bricking the phone and "When come back from nougat to marshmallow don't flash gpt and bootloader , and flash everything else.".
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Yeah, it might be that the modules haven't been updated for the latest magisk v13.2 yet.

Honestly, I do not know if it's safe to downgrade - with the June update, a critical security vulnerability was patch, and from what I've observed, attempts to downgrade have resulted in bricks. From what I understand, this seemed to result from users downgrading their GPT and bootloaders. You may be able to downgrade from Nougat to MM if you omit flashing the GPT and bootloader partitions (as mentioned in the guide you found), but there'll be a mismatch between your bootloader (Nougat) and your system (Marshmallow). Thus, for that reason, I'd suggest to not accept OTAs whatsoever. Again, I do not know if this is safe since the June update and I do not want to suggest things that might damage or ruin your device - it's your device, however.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] RoSinner:
So I had the initial version of PA installed. Everything was working fine. I had the official TWRP.

- I tried to update via OTA but nothing was happening so I rebooted to recovery. A message showed up saying something like factory resetting data. Than it went into TWRP. I rebooted to system again to see if it actually factory resetted and it did. Someone mentioned in the PA thread that the message was in fact a text bug and that my phone factory reset because of the official TWRP.

- I've installed via fastboot blu_spark twrp. Wiped data,system,cache and dalvik. Installed new PA version, installed nano open gapps (arm64,v7.1) and latest SuperSU. It booted fine but when it asked for my google account, it didn't save it. The password was right, it just didn't want to accept it.

- I proceeded to install again, using same steps as above. This time i get message box constantly with google framework keeps closing, or something like that

- I assumed it's a twrp problem so I tried Arter97's twrp but still had the same issue

- I started flashing with different gapps, mini,nano,pico, even tried with previous version gapps from 9th of july, still same issue.

- After about 5 hours I gave up and flashed the latest stock zip. Booted fine, no force close, but gets stuck at "Just a sec", after you select your Wi-FI

I am not sure what to do next. Your help, would be much appreciated.

Here's a logcat I took. This is from last version of PA.

https://paste.ee/p/C19Ck

Edit: Another weird thing that happened is I tried to flash the latest OP3 firmware and twrp said something like "Your phone is OP3T and this firmware is for OP3".

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] flax:
Yes it is pretty common problem on many S8 and S8+ devices. There are thousands of users which have this problem, and it is HW problem, not SW. This will be new #cameragate issue. To test if it's caused by HW simply enter service mode by typing code *#0*# and select MEGA CAM button. If there is problem with focusing too, you have problem with camera module which is stuck and not properly lubricated.
