[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] TML1504:
I searched a lot, but did not find a solution to the following known problem:

Since about a year you wouldn't be able to update almost all Samsung core apps (mail, contacts, messages, gallery, clock, touchwiz, ...) directly with the proper apk file (from for example apkmirror).

On S8(+) you were able to bypass this protection by changing the secure startup (either way) and reboot the device. until the next reboot all update-installations would have been successful.

On Note8 this trick does not work anymore. :(

Only chance is directly after an (official, OTA or Odin) update. Then, it is also possible to update all Samsung programs until next reboot, after which the security mechanism takes place again!

Has anyone so far figured out how to bypass this protection, as it is really annoying?

Thx in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] TML1504:
Bump!

Samsung already closed the flaw that directly after an update the manual apk update was possible.

On Tab S3 this is still working (experienced myself a few days ago), but not on Note8...

Does anyone has a solution for this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nick216ohio:
Bumper help for him^ Someone who knows more maybe shed light on this. Couldn't he apk version the 1s he wants and then bk disable onto updater?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GuestK0079:
Lol. You two make it sound like it's a case of life and death that you can't update those apps. Or like they are not working properly and now you can't use your phone because you can't update them. Just lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nick216ohio:
You two? I gave him an extra bump. Doesn't affect me at all. Trying to help him out is all. I honestly don't know why OP wants to do this anyhow. But guess he just wants newer version faster. Hey all us thirsty for that Oreo lol.

Hi everyone!

Just wanted everyone to know that

Team_Astr4y4L Is looking for Beta Testers for several ongoing development projects, including a project aimed at providing a remote FRP bypass service for LG devices !

UPDATE:

the team is having trouble with the dmvarity on the newer builds of android...

Confirmed working for zone3 K4-k121

Believed working for all lollipop roms that are not encrypted,

more testing is needed, and a better means of bypasing or disabling dm-varity with out modifying /boot

FOR NOW WE ARE LOOKING FOR MORE LOLLIPOP DEVICES TO TEST thanks,

The service is hosted at Team_Astr4y4L's website and we are working to extend the service to encompass a larger selection of devices.

For that Purpose We are offering people a chance to be a beta-tester and be one of the first to use the service for Thair particular device.

As I said there are several other projects going into Beta-Test also so if your interested check it out.

A lot of these projects will cost money once the devices and service are considered Proven Stable and working

As a beta tester you get in absolutely free of charge

To Participate you must fill out the beta test request form at our website and if your device isn't supported yet, you're almost guaranteed to get a spot on the crew.

This Thread will be kind of a Support thread for the FRP beta testers and a place to ask questions about the project

here's the link to become a beta tester,

MOD Edit :- Links Removed

I hope this will be mutually helpful for the project and also the Users out there that have run out of options with their FRP locked device

Thanks,

Astr4y4L

Just tried on 8.0 (Nov 5 Security Patch), does not work. Threw an error message along the lines of "Display Manager has failed" over and over. Thankfully I could pull the notification shade and ask the assistant to get my back to my file manager to switch the app back. In other news, it doesn't look like a reboot is necessary for this to take effect.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sharkie405:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sharkie405:
I didn't bother with it last night since the person who requested said they moved on to Nova. But I'll do one with that 8.0 apk this evening for sure.

It's odd, however, that someone said it didn't work on 8.0, but two others have said it works on 7.1.2.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ra6idr0y:
I'm impatient so gave this a shot on my Pixel 2 running 8.0 SEP security update... Works! I had Nova set as default home while moving/backing up the the files and also, I set the permissions to match the existing launcher apk before setting it as my new default. Only thing I noticed is the nav bar in the app drawer has an additional layer of semitrans black over it... probably normal or new from google with the update; don't remember it from before (would love to get rid of that too :angel:).
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sharkie405:
The layer on the navbar would be a framework-res mod. Unfortunately, Apktool hasn't worked to mod the Pixel framework-res.apk since Oreo. ☹️

What are your thoughts on the home screen widget? Hide/disable?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sharkie405:
I've spent the last hour or so tinkering with it. I can "hide" it, as in hide the text, but the space is still taken up now by empty, unusable space. I assume "actually" removing it would require a smali edit, which I honestly don't feel like messing with. It doesn't seem to be possible with just /res files.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kevs888:
My wife has managed to rack up over 20,000 points in Samsung Rewards on her S8.

However, when she tried to redeem a $100 Visa Gift Card for 20,000 points, she gets an error and is prompted to try again later.

She's even tried redeeming a $50 Visa Gift Card for 10,000 points and gets the same error.

I don't want to try any lower denominations because the point value is more for less dollars on the Visa Gift Card.

On my Note 8, I've already redeemed 2 x $50 Visa Gift Cards without a hitch.

I've tried removing/re-adding the cards, uninstall/reinstall and re-adding the cards, give Samsung Pay and Samsung Pay Framework full permissions, rebooted, and wifi on/off. Nothing is working.

Her phone is not rooted and she has the latest version of Samsung Pay.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Thanks for any insight.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wfire:
Saw your post in Google 20 hours after you posted it. Not bad.

Yes, just tried to redeem points for a rewards card, had the same issue. " An error has occurred. Try again to redeem. " Ugh!

Opened a ticket through app help, hoping for the best. Maybe it's a problem on their servers.

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kevs888:
I finally broke down and called Samsung not expecting much help besides asking me to do a factory reset.

However, they noticed that I didn't fill in the last name field in her Samsung profile. Once I filled in the last name field, I went back to Samsung Pay and was able to redeem!

I had my wife's info correct within the Samsung Pay profile that included the last name field, but her actual Samsung account profile was still missing the last name field.

Hello friends,

I have recently bought a new JioFi 2 M2S device and was trying to unlock it somehow.

After lots of trying I am able to figure out few things that I think can be helpful for unlocking by senior and experienced developers.

1. After logging in the Web Admin if we go to a page 192.168.1.1/engineer.html it asks for some engineer key which might open up some hidden settings of the router.

2. I have tried to figure out the javascript and it is some kind of md5 algorithm

3. On googling I found a post which says

a. Device made by Pegasus Telecom (Raysan technology) which is subdivision of Haier

b. Same device as Smartfren Andromax M2Y (Indonesian).

c. Also same as Beeline Uzbekistan Mobile router

d. Runs an embedded linux webserver: Boa version 0.94.14rc21

4. There is a directory of xml files if it helps at 192.168.1.1/wxml/

5. The device supports fastboot mode by pressing WPS button and power button fo 3 secs

Please experienced developers and geeks see if you can do something to unlock.Best of luck :good:

If you find anything please reply back or PM me

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] innovativesahil:
Ok here is the thing

1. If a hex number 0-F is fed to the transalte_key() function it returns one of the character in

var keyss = "3@S35F@JmTQt9S#I";

2 If anything else is fed it returns char 'I' always

So I think the final password string should be made up of characters from var keyss i.e. 3,5,9,S,F,J,T,Q,I,m,t,@,# only

and the length is 17 as done in the substr() method.

Does anybody know how to send raw requests to the server. I know it can be done using Burpsuite but I don't know how exactly is it done?

Edit:

Actually the characters # and @ are URl encoded as %23 and %40 in the string passed to server

server then returns an xml which contains new csrf token and a <eng>0</eng> which I think shows whether engineer is logged in or not

This is a link provided by [MENTION=8726543]upi-turin[/MENTION] for firmware extracted from Jiofi 2 through adb shell
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shihabsoft:
How are you finding the above links? Do you use any special software or manual scraping?

And for the engineer key thing. It's impossible to do a bruteforce attack as it would take more than a billion requests to the server considering the number of password character is 12 (as from the script code) and the character set length is 15.

Our only option is to gain access to system via adb(as it is an Android OS, it might be possible by shorting some IC pins to enter recovery mode) , as fastboot is of no luck, with limited options. Or ultimately, someone from Jio generous enough to provide the firmware file.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] innovativesahil:
Bro the firmware provided by [MENTION=8726543]upi-turin[/MENTION] has adb access as he himself extracted the firmware using adb. But I am unable to flash the zip through the fastboot mode. If we can somehow make a bin file and upgrade through the web UI maybe we get adb access.

I don't use special software for those links. They are just hit and trial results and some through burpsuite spider.

Also the engineer key page uses anti-csrf tokens so it becomes more difficult to attack. The password length is not necessarily 12 as it is first encoded using md5 and a substring is chosen. This substring is then further encoded using the character set of 15 and posted in HTML request along with anti-csrf token.

Do you know how to decompile or open a firmware bin file?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shihabsoft:
If you carefully read the JS code, the ultimate length of encrypted password is 12 and it comes only from the characters in 15 length character set. It's still a probability game, who knows if JioFi manufacturers have made the JS look like that, to waste the reverse engineer's time.

For the system folder part from the gdrive, it is still debatable. It's not sure enough for me, that guy has accessed the device through ADB and providing the original files, or just some other files from unlocked firmwares of previous JioFi.

The firmware bin file is mostly just a zip file, if security aware, a magic hashed zip file. If you're using Linux, try binwalker it will tell you exactly the file type, even if it's magic hashed.
