[Xposed General] WTF_666:
No one is attacking you, just how many verbal accusations were, and there is no evidence. There is only paranoid I saw something, but really nothing is presented. edXposed has problems in the form of endangered applications from the market, once a week a problem with SN. as soon as this is resolved, if of course they are, then I will be happy to return to it.
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Yes, but they are big companies. They usually have huge funds or insurance companies to guarantee. What qualifications are there for TaiChi's small company developers to guarantee?
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
If your privacy has to be collected and sold, sell it to a large company (such as Xiaomi) guaranteed by an insurance company or to a small company (such as TaiChi's dev) that can do whatever they want without any guarantee

Choose it yourself
[Xposed General] jaggillararla:
What can they sell of my info ?

My porn sites ? Wait, my passwords ? Bruh ???

How's safetynet for u?
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Now, stop this topic. Tai Chi has confirmed that it has virus behavior and malicious code, and has been permanently deleted from the Magisk official modoles repo.
[Xposed General] jaggillararla:
It was deleted due to it being closed source, read topjohnwu's tweet don't twist it. If the Chinese wants my info let em have it, my chrome history is very interesting.

Plus if they logged into my bank account it would be very hard. They need a physical device that only I own.

Also bro, don't be jelly. He can pass safetynet, you needed alot of work plus my Snapchat account got banned several times due to your module. You should try his module, never had a problem.
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
Ah, the 'nothing to hide' fallacy again.

So tell us, why do you use a pseudonym? Do you pin the findings of your GP to the next tree for everybody to read? Do you use any curtains, at least in the rooms where you change? Btw, why bother with clothing at all?
[Xposed General] jaggillararla:
Cuz it's illegal to walk around naked, I don't own curtains and I walk around naked in my house you can come see, my neighbors do see it. Plus my name means that I like something FYI I like milk.

And I said Chinese ppl not you lol. Go and chill a bit.

I own a OnePlus, my phone is Chinese and they do have telemetry in their system now what can their country do to me. Please do tell everyone on xda what exactly Chinese ppl will do to us with our information.

Now if you had my information you could come and see me naked, I hope we will have a good time.

Also idk where ure from but GP= general practitioner. And if he had findings it would be on a piece of paper.

And guess what ? That paper can only contain one thing I have. I bet yours is a list of psych evals ?
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
That doesn't tell me where you live and who you are. I certainly couldn't mind less, but it keeps your privacy (which is fine by me).

The point is, why should they even be allowed to? You said it's illegal to go around naked - now tell me, why shouldn't it be illegal to measure your whereabouts?

As I said, I couldn't care less.

Precisely. So would you pin that paper to the next tree?
[Xposed General] jaggillararla:
Ah man us discussing ethics is really funny.

Anyways u keep your phone without gapps? Man best of luck really. Go for Foss or whatever. Google knows everything about me.

I hope we can have a good time together naked. U're invited but only if you bring some mud pie
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
And if you shut your eyes the world vanishes.
[Xposed General] jaggillararla:
Nah girl just only when I'm on xda discussing taichi my love
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
Whatever you say.
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
This is not the case, you can try to find the original tweet from topjohnwu, which confirmed the virus behavior, and was threatened by the spammer managed by weishu, forced to change the statement
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
The burden of proof is on you to find the tweet that only you know about, apparently. The naked guy is right, you're straight up jealous!
[Xposed General] Namnodorel:
He thought it was malicious, but was quicly corrected - apps with code-injecting features like TaiChi and VirtualXposed are often detected by virus scanners. That doesn't mean that TaiChi is sure to not be malicious, it just means that you can't rely on conventional simple detection mechanisms to know if it is.

Even though topjohnwu had removed thw module because of the misunderstanding, he didn't add it again because it was closed source.

Overall, whether TaiChi is malicious remains ambiguous, but there are valid arguments against using it independent of that.
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
No, comfirmed malicious and removed, you can ask topjohnwu in Telegram public groups.
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Haha, you must have taken weishu's rotten money.

The tweet is backed up in this topic. You just don't want to see it.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82297089&postcount=67
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
Go.

Away.
[Xposed General] Namnodorel:
In the same post you just linked, there is also the followup tweet where he literally said he has no hard evidence and kept it out because it is closed source. Do you think he lied with his second statement? If so, then why?
[Xposed General] loopypalm:
i tested it, required internet = uninstall it right away
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
I said that
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Can't judge networking as abnormal behavior. Some need to check for updates (such as the original xposed).

You also need to see what the network sends (like TaiChi send my privacy data to his server :rolleyes:)
[Xposed General] loopypalm:
agree , but this crap require internet to work

let's say i'm in the middle of desert ...

the phone will be useless if all apps are likde that ...
[Xposed General] Namnodorel:
Why do you think topjohnwu was threatened into changing his statement?
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Before being forced to delete, the comment area was full of those comments.

You can ask topjohnwu for information about remove Malware-Taichi in Telegram.
[Xposed General] Namnodorel:
There were comments threatening him, or what? Are you sure those were serious threats, and not just people correcting him?

I don't use Telegram. If he tells a different story on there, could you provide a screenshot or something of a message where he has said explicitly that he was threatened, and still believes that the software is actively malicious?
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
Not correction and threat, but ridicule and abuse.

The facts are there and nothing can be corrected.

Unfortunately, I asked topjohnwu about it and he said he didn't want to be involved in it any more.

My chats with topjohnwu are in Chinese. If you don't mind or can understand Chinese, I can send them up.
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
OP is the biggest blowhard I've seen in my many years at xda. Move along people, nothing to see here.
[Xposed General] SekiBetu:
many feedback from users confirmed the virus behavior?

and topjohnwu was threatened by weishu to change the statement?

chill man, until now, there is no clear evidence to suggest that TaiChi has virus behavior(i just tested it using HttpCanary from google play store, if you have further evidence that TaiChi contains virus behavior, pls show us here, not just saying).

your tg channel /fxxk_taichi is just full of your complaint about TaiChi, which only because it is closed-source.

true, and I can do nothing, because i cant stop using windows10 and chrome, so, here is my advice:

*use self-compiled android system.

*even an open-souce software, never use the release version, because you never know what they would add, better compile it by yourself (especially magisk and edxposed).

until then, you are safe.

btw, you said your edxposed is the "Orthodox successor" of Xposed (v2ex/t/646108)

but TaiChi seems using the same way(zygote) as you do.

the thing is, when i open any app with edxposed installed, it takes more times to loading than with TaiChi installed.

so, what my question is, why TaiChi's performance is better than yours?

you see, you are using the same way, it should be the same performance, unless, you added something new
[Xposed General] SekiBetu:
yep, and i found that he is not the main developer of edxposed, the real one is called solohsu, who commited the most codes of edxposed
[Xposed General] MajicDroidPirate:
AyAyAy

OMG lol just read through 13 pages my head hurts

Okay. 1st of all Who made this thing up about you having to factory reset your phone to remove TaiChi, that's not true in the slightest i've removed and reinstalled it 3 times. If your using the Magisk Module its as simple as disabling and uninstalling the module and rebooting the phone, then uninstalling the APK like you would any other.

2nd. TaiCHi not working without data access...Also not true I disabled its data access and all my modules continue to work, Ive also revoked its storage permissions and no problem, even used AFwall to block its data completely and it continues to work.

3rd I too have monitored its Data, prior to me blocking its data access, it did make 4 Un-encrypted connections to a private server in china, if you would like to know how i found this it was through an awesome app called Appsnitch, for what its worth it made a connection to the IP 43.245.220.89 which would appear to be owned by techavenue in hong kong, One to Alibaba (this is the only one i really found strange as its a site that sells stuff similar to ebay) the other 2 Ips were all chinatelecom which im just assuming is the ISP that was being used. That being said this isn't really proof its stealing my data, the connection could have been made by me downloading a module through the app, and i can tell you that since I saw that I blocked its internet access and no connections have been made since.

Using TaiChi is a risk, but same with using Any app in general. It being closed source is hardly a reason to fear it when half the apps we use daily are closed source. There's a risk involved, absolutely but I think this thread is blowing it out of proportion, its not nearly as dangerous as you make it sound, I along with its probably tens of thousands if not millions of users are using it and were all fine. if there was a real threat it would have come to light by now. If the only threat is selling data, well, Google and Facebook do that on the daily.

TaiChi as of yet still hasn't leaked my passwords, bank info, SSN, or the names of my unborn children. I think you need more concrete evidence then simply seeing data being sent to servers, if you use AppSnitch you'll be surprised at how many play store approved apps do the same thing. or i guess you can use your canary thing which requires a VPN connection unlike appsnitch.

Anyway,

Point is,

I think this thread would be useful after real evidence is found, but until then it just feels like fear mongering.

All this being said Im going to do something you didn't, I'm going to paste screenshots of all my findings so users can decide for themselves. And I just want to repeat that i was able to block its data access with no issues and the app did not stop working and it stopped the connections it made :eek: :cyclops:
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
Which is to say what, exactly?

He never said so, did he? Not even implicitly.

That doesn't say he is right, but you shouldn't try to build up a straw man.
[Xposed General] SekiBetu:
sorry, i just so annoyed about him saying things without proof like this "https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83026345&postcount=90"

and i cant accept that he is calling taichi users "dXXb aXX" and banning/kicking them out of the EdXposed QQ group(a chinese SNS software like discord and telegram)

in my eyes, closed source is his excuse to smear weishu's reputation(you might not know that he is badmouthing weishu and his girlfriend everywhere but not here)

closed source may be potentially dangerous, but he need to show the evidence ,not just trying to smear developers' reputation

he also said, due to the privacy, he cant let us to watch the evidence, oh, what a nice evidence he got, why not just use a phone without privacy data to catch something and show us if he really want TaiChi to die?
[Xposed General] davidmoore0:
Their open source virtual xposed looks pretty clean.

Was there ever any tangible proof given that taichi was actually bad? I haven't found any yet.
[Xposed General] Keule-Tm:
Virtual Xposed and TaiChi are not related (on GitHub at least).

Edit: oops. Turns out they are: https://github.com/android-hacker/VirtualXposed/search?q=TaiChi&type=
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
Yeah he's a jerk without proof. The worst kind!
[Xposed General] mlgmxyysd:
The thread can be terminated now.

The good news is that Taichi's developers have announced that Taichi will discontinue indefinitely in their group which also means that there will be no updates or new modules.
[Xposed General] SekiBetu:
next time we saw someone is developing a closed-source software, we can learn from mlgmxyysd, to assault him and push him to open source his software, if he can't do it, we post a thread here and say it is a malware, and let magisk's developer or someone say something and use those words to attack him, that's the correct way to open source the world, open source lives matter!
[Xposed General] nri_tech1183:
Its totally safe, using it since a year now.

Those who want to cry & compare it with xposed framework then keep crying and this thread isnt for you.

Taichi is the future..
[Xposed General] Kendrenogen:
No, LSPosed is
[Xposed General] Luthor Lynch:
Hard words!

Can you also prove these allegations?

I may be late with my comment, sorry, but taichi came across my way some days ago, when looking for a substitute for rovo's Xposed and riru not only failed to install, no it crashed my Note 8 pro for about three times. This leads me to another question:

What, the heck, is better on riru than taichi? Taichi installed without probs (but maybe this intended, since its main task -according to your opinion- seems to be data collection and/or damage).

Pls, don't get me wrong, I don't want to get into war with you, just curious and concerned about my phones health ...

I would be glad, if you answer me, gladly too on PM - looking forward to your reply
[Xposed General] VD171:
VirtualXposed is better than TaiChi.

And LSposed is better than EdXposed :)

[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] berturion:
Hello,

As unlocking our Huawei Nova became very difficult, I wanted to share with you a service that I bought to unlock my own. It is https://www.gsmzambia.com.

It costs only $3, which is a very low price compared to other known services, and it just works.

Though, the way they operate can be a little scary because they unlock you phone by remotely taking the control of your PC with Teamviewer (you will have to send them your ID + Password), your phone must be connected with USB and set in "Manufacture mode". It works only on Windows with an account having administrator rights because they have to install some phone maintenance and unlock softwares on your PC in order to reveal the bootloader unlock code (As I am a little paranoid, I deleted all my files and made a restoration point before).

The process is very well described in the emails they send to you after purchase.

After the code is revealed by their software, the operator copy/pasted it for me in a text file. And it was done.

So they don't unlock your phone, they just communicate the bootloader unlock code to you. You will have to type the corresponding fastboot command with this code as parameter.

Even if I really think it is safe and they didn't do anything apart from their business, I restored Windows in its previous state, just to be 100% sure.

I really hope this can helps.

EDIT: As [MENTION=7786725]zgfg[/MENTION] said, the android security patch is important here. Mine was from 1st march 2017, so pretty old. This is why it worked.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
What is your Android Security Patch date as from Settings/About?

If your Security Patch date is before June 2018, then there are alse other services where you can buy the Bootloader code for the similar price of 4-5 $

But problems start for Huawei phones with firmwares whose Security Patch date is newer than June 2018

E.g., my Security Patch date is well past June 2018, hence gsmzambia redirected me to their another page/service which costs 12$ (no more 3$), but even worse, page says that such service is offline - hence pretty much as expected, similar situation as with many other services who do not support Bootloader codes for Huawei phones/firmwares with the new (already 19 months old) Bootloader
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] berturion:
I think your right, I checked my phone and the security patch is from the 1st march 2017. So this is why the bootloader unlock code was easier to discover.

Well after many hours of trying I finally got a BA SPV M2000 unlocked!

Not your average unlock this...it was ex-BSKYB and had their software set to load and lock EVERYTHING out apart from their menu, so first job was to get rid of that - not easy as it was very locked down!

Many hard resets later and I managed to delete all the files it needed to run, but the browser(it was browser based and full screen - no exit option!) then still launched denying me access to the system.

Anyway in the end managed to get into it and then followed the instructions in the Wiki - now it's running WM6 and is fully unlocked!!!

Gawd what a mission! But just wanted to thank everyone who contributed to the Wiki and development of the unlock for making it as easy as it could be - after i blitzed the BSKYB software!!!

I got this PDA Viet but it does work...

1. Download mtty v1.42

http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/mtty1.42.rar

2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)

kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe

3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.

4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001

5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.

6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted

7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot

8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.

No thats not universal enough. Go through the compatability list for framaroot, or master root and that will give your answer. I just want my phones to be on the same level. All on that list or not but there shouldnt be an in between

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Rooting a tablet is a security risk that manufacturers don't WANT users to take. They want rooting to be difficult. So, IMO, it is down right silly to think they'd intentionally let some apps, like the ones you mentioned, defeat their purpose. And NONE of those apps work on a high percentage of the tablets on the market today.

If having a tablet that can be rooted by one of them is that important to you, then I'd suggest you check the list BEFORE you make your purchase rather than whining about it when they don't work.:rolleyes:
