e

I have just flashed system/boot/recovery... but with my twrp i cannot find a oeminfo partition...

is there a possibility to locate it? give me some hint, and i extract mine...

(own Answer: Yes... mount an sd card, go to terminal: try following location: /dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/ XXXX

)

afterwards: dd if=partition of=somename.img

so i got the oem.img, but i dont know if it helps you ;) my phone is bricked as well... (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78648670&postcount=155)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] randrew87:
Hello [MENTION=5336859]platonshead[/MENTION], fisrt of all thanks for the help:

the process should be as follows:

Connect your device to the computer, type adb shell in command line and you'll be in TWRP console.

Now type dd if=/dev/block/platrofm/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo of=/sdcard/oeminfo.img and you'll get a byte-to-byte copy of oeminfo partition in internal storage.

can you confirm that the model is the same (AGS-W09) and the oeminfo region (hw-eu,hw-la,hw-us, or something like that)?

whats the problem with the device, why it was bricked?

Regards.

For my company, I'm looking for a 7' device with a resolution of 1024x600 and native SIP support and I stumbled across the Huawei Mediapad T3 7.0

Can someone with this tablet confirm the following?

1. Does this recovery work for the 7 inch version?

2. Is native Android SIP supported by this table, meaning that the Sip and Voip api are supported:

Log.i(TAG, "API supported: " + SipManager.isApiSupported(context));
Log.i(TAG, "Is Voip supported? " + SipManager.isVoipSupported(context));
Log.i(TAG, "Is Sip Wifi only? " + SipManager.isSipWifiOnly(context));

Yeah it took me a long time to get my unlock code. The only place I found that would assist me was the zendesk support area for the UK huawei (Even though i'm North American).

[Xposed General] moneytoo:
I have just made successful transaction via Android Pay on my rooted & Xposed Samsung Galaxy S7.

I'm curious to know what is the actual reason for working as I was under impression that Android Pay is guarded by SafetyNet.

My Samsung Galaxy S7 runs Android 7.0 (G930FXXU1DQIC - patch level 8/2017), good old CF-Auto-Root and latest Xposed framework (no systemless root or Magisk). I started using S7 year and half ago and I am rooted from the very beginning. CF-Auto-Root disabled device internal memory encryption (after the last reinstallation). I only use two my own Xposed modules and YouTube AdAway. I block ads via AdAway. (I also disable any system/provisioning updates, security checks, unused system apps - but without using of any 3rd party software or hacks)

As I was thinking Android Pay won't work on my S7, I setup payment card on Samsung Galaxy S5 which I have reinstalled (from LineageOS) to the latest stock ROM (without rooting). Then I gave try my S7 and confirmed the same card for use on that device as well.

First I tried reading card info using "Credit Card Reader NFS (EMV)" which worked fine on both phones in either way so I tried using S7 today in a shop (two days after setup)... and it just worked.

Android Pay version: 1.36.177845727

Interesting [emoji848][emoji848]

Could you please share your android pay apk? I would like to try

But I have magisk and a lot of modules with xposed, anyway I'll try

Enviado desde mi SM-G930F mediante Tapatalk
[Xposed General] moneytoo:
The version (name/code) I use is the same as here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...id-pay-1-36-177845727-4-android-apk-download/

Before running any SafetyNet checks on my working S7, I will try replicating the setup on rooted S5 first.

EDIT (day later):

After rooting S5, Android Pay reports the "Android Pay can't be used on this device" message. However I used older image for rooting (as I had some issues with latest but will try again). It further confirms that there's some quirk in my setup/configuration that makes it work on S7.

S5 gave me that error shortly after trying reading card via "Credit Card Reader" app - so it seems like a perfect verification without the need to use a real terminal in a shop.

I don't have much time lately but I will be digging deeper...

EDIT (18th January):

Made second payment via Android Pay, this time above the limit requiring unlocking. It still works.

Still no luck with S5 - all SafetyNet checks fail. I'm too scared to actually run any SafetyNet checks on S7 but I guess I could snoop the network and compare the local SafetyNet logs/dbs inside GMS...
[Xposed General] itandy:
Just curious, is there any progress on this? I'm using latest Magisk with Xposed. One of my local payment app refused to work after a recent Google update. I think Google has strengthened the SafetyNet checking again. I wonder if your S7 is still working after the recent update.
[Xposed General] moneytoo:
[MENTION=2536649]itandy[/MENTION]

I've made over 10 payments, used S7 for setup Android Pay on Android Wear and it still works. I tried running SafetyNet checks and they said that attestation fails (both baseic integrity and cts profile match).

So far my thinking is that it's allowed by design. S7 features fingerprint reader which means (by CTS requirements) it also has embedded secure storage for signing keys (SE/TEE?). The S5 doesn't have that (their fingerprint reader was one of the firsts and didn't use system APIs) so it fall backs to unsecured software keystore implementation. I see that only S7 contains some actual data in table "StorageKey" (in Android Pay db inside GMS).

I tried spoofing "KeyInfo.isInsideSecureHardware()" but maybe I was too late as the device profile was already setup.

I've just realized I should be able to get another device (with fingerprint reader) for testing this theory so I will do that.
[Xposed General] itandy:
Thanks for you response. But still it doesn't make sense to me. S7 is not the only device to have the requirements you mentioned. And specifically Xposed is one major target of SafetyNet. My device with Magisk passed everything without Xposed. But once Xposed is enabled, both ctsProfile and Basic Integrity fails, as expected.
[Xposed General] sjpage10:
I had the same situation S7 working android pay with root and xposed for the last year , until all of a sudden last week it stopped :( and now will only work if i disable xposed

is anyone's s7 still working with android pay ,root and xposed ?

or is it just mine that stopped last week ?

Stef
[Xposed General] itandy:
I'm not using S7. But my local payment app used to work with Magisk and Xposed until recently. I think a recent Google Play update strengthened the SafetyNet.
[Xposed General] moneytoo:
[MENTION=6625370]sjpage10[/MENTION]

The most recent payment I made with S7 was 9 days ago but that's cause I'm using watch now. I'm still able to read Android Pay card data from S7.

Android Pay version may not actually matter that much as the core for payments is in Google Play Services. I'm currently on version 11.9.75.
[Xposed General] moneytoo:
[MENTION=726823]sjevtic[/MENTION]

It stopped working for me as well.

So far on every device I tried, Android Pay works perfectly fine offline (for at least few days) but after a device reboot it requires internet connectivity for initialization.

The "Device certification" status in Play Store is cached and doesn't 100% correspond with the actual SafetyNet responses. Apps like Netflis doesn't show up when SafetyNet fails but there's no such protection turned on for Android Pay.

1) Seems like they disabled the responses on servers needed for initialization of Android Pay

2) As I already mentioned, install "Credit Card Reader NFC (EMV)" on second phone and try reading card with that. When this works, Android Pay also works.

3-4) That's the question. I still think it's possible to hack it so Android Pay will continue working on our phones. The key here is that it works offline. It may be a bit cumbersome though (automate rebooting to environment without Xposed to refill new payment tokens).

BTW: At least Android Pay still works on my Android Wear watch (connected to S7).
[Xposed General] sjevtic:
So Android Pay previously didn't need to be online to process payments? Are you suggesting that there was some form of pre-authorization, either for some period of time, dollar amount, or number of transactions for which it will work with no further attempts to connect to a server? And was SafetyNet only checked at the time of this pre-authorization? For what it is worth, I have been online every single time I attempted a transaction to date, so as of the moment I have no additional data to offer here.

It doesn't make a lot of sense why the SafetyNet status displayed would be cached, yet a live value would be used to filter apps displayed by the Play store. Nonetheless, observations seem to support this.

So are you suggesting that now Android Pay goes online for every transaction made, checking SafetyNet at each transaction as well?

Ah, ok, I found the app now. That said, it didn't seem to actually be able to read NFC cards, let alone my S7's Android Pay "card" on the HTC One M8 that happened to be sitting in my desk. Just to make sure the app was sane, I tried installing it on my S7 and was able to read my NFC-enabled transit card, but that doesn't help much for these experiments. I can find a different phone on Monday if needed.

Before you responded though, I found a vending machine in the office that accepts NFC payments, and for which I can just cancel the transaction after scanning. I did a couple simple tests with it:

Android Pay transaction with Xposed on (SafetyNet failing): "You can no longer use Android Pay on this phone"

Android Pay transaction with Xposed off (SafetyNet pass): Success/green check mark

Android Pay transaction with Xposed on (SafetyNet failing): "You can no longer use Android Pay on this phone"

In each of these scenarios, I was online. It seems like now SafetyNet has to be passing whenever Android Pay is used to make a transaction. It isn't yet clear whether the phone also has to be online.

I am out of the office today, but can try some other scenarios on Monday if needed (e.g., Android Pay while offline).

An occasional boot with Xposed off for a "refill" would be manageable; requiring that Xposed be off at every boot during which an Android Pay transaction is made not so much.

Any suggestions? I am happy to help out in any way I can, though sadly I have no significant Android development experience at this point.
[Xposed General] sjevtic:
Quick update

Over the course of the weekend, I upgraded my phone to Superman ROM v2.9.0, and along the way, I spent some time (that is, more than a few minutes) with my phone booted up without Xposed running. I am not sure if this had any effect, but when I next tried Android Pay on Saturday and then again on Sunday, it worked. In both cases, Xposed was running and the phone was online.

Today, however, Android Pay failed again with the same message I reported earlier. So, that makes me wonder:

Is offline authentication caching working again?

Does the phone need to be booted up for an extended period in a SafetyNet-passing state (Xposed off) to refill the offline token cache?

Is there a way to examine the contents of the offline token cache, and determine the state of remaining tokens, if any?

Thanks.
[Xposed General] ezdiy:
Indeed SE (oldschool sim toolkit), or TrustZone (TEE) is to blame. SafetyNet is consulted only if the pay is, well ... exposed.

I'd advise against releasing yet another safetynet bypass though, as those are promptly coopted by banking trojans and google is forced to update safetynet soon after (magisk didn't work for very long now, did it). Xposed is difficult beast to hide sort of by design.

I suspect that when you do that, you tell the NFC payment stack that you now sign tokens inside TEE trustlet, but without having TEE...

Hi everyone!

Exist a app to work as app manager or profile manager and create profiles based on usage?

Example: I like edit videos on my S8+ during this process I not like have any other app open or running in the background. I would like have a app that when I select the "video edition" profile kill all other apps and prevent that this apps running until I change again to the "normal" profile. With this I know that all the resources are available for the video editor app.

Some ideas?

Thanks!

The deepest Chen possible is actually called a mega wipe, haven't used it since I had a galaxy S3 but it literally deletes everything. You'll be without an OS and any files. Sideloading is the only way back from it or official OS via an RUU (computer needed)

Search it on xda if you're interested.

Hi,

I have tested many Sound Mods on Oreo beta for SM-Galaxy S8 & S8+. I am just sharing one sound mod i.e. Viper4android XHiFi, which is working on latest built of Oreo beta for S8 & S8+ Tested on Exynos Only

Here is how to:

1. You must install core system

2. Do not select any thing else than V4A XHiFi in Sound Mods

3. You must select to remove deepbuffer in Aroma Installer

4. You have to select Permissive & SD Card fix in Aroma Installer

5. Its based on A.R.I.S.E Sound, so all credit to him

6. I just debloated other Mods that are not working on Oreo

7. I am not a script developer or like that so U have to go throw all screens and just select whatever you read above

8. Download & Flash the Zip file in TWRP

V4A XHiFi

Please upload this file on other sources like, Android file host, zippy share and other trusted file hosting servers.

1. Download V4AXHIFIModAromaInstaller.zip;

2. In TWRP install V4AXHIFIModAromaInstaller.zip;

3. In Aroma choose only (1) Viper4Android XHiFi, (2) remove deepbuffer, (3) fix sd card permissions, (4) selinux (check);

<-skip all other options including Viper4Arise old or new version.

4. Reboot to system;

5. Launch Viper4Android XHiFi;

6. Enable whatever environment you need it for (headset, speaker, BT;)

7. Boooooom, you will have it working (3 dot menu Driver Status should say Enabled:YES, Processing: YES, Status: Normal).
