[General Questions and Answers] Edw590:
Hi everyone.

I'm thinking in buying a phone from CAT (CAT S42) and I'm not sure if I can unlock its bootloader. But I've seen on another forum that the CAT S31 has root available for it through Magisk, and I didn't see anyone mentioning having unlocked the bootloader. S42 has a MediaTek chipset and S31 has a Qualcomm chipset, if that helps.

So my question is: is unlocking bootloader MANDATORY to root a device? Can I just run a custom recovery, root the phone with that, and then the recovery gets overwritten on system boot? Or can I root through USB debugging without even needing custom recovery?

The CAT S31 I mentioned was rooted with Magisk, and as I said, I didn't see anyone talking about unlocked bootloader. But I also read Magisk changes the boot partition and the bootloader checks if it was modified. So I'm a bit confused with this too. It's also written that MiracleBox was used and I'm not sure that's the reason that I'm getting confused or not (I had never heard of this tool until now).

How may they have done that?

I'm sorry, I don't understand a lot of the root requirements part, since I was lucky and my 1st phone had the bootloader unlocked alreaedy for some reason and the second was as easy as writting a single command. But about this phone there's almost nothing and I'd like to know the general about this. If it's really necessary to have the bootloader unlocked, for example. And if it's not, then what methods can I use with it still locked?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello DADi590,

Unfortunately I can't answer all of your questions about S42. I have one of them and I am also looking for and confused with root procedures. But I can tell you that unlock boot loader was just a matter of get developer options on (tapping version # 10 times), and inside you can toogle lock/unlock bootloader...

How to root it safely is what I do not know yet.

good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
@DADi590

Rooting the Android OS of a device in practice is nothing more than adding the su cmdlet known from Linux OS to the Android OS. To root Android OS in no case requires device's bootloader must get unlocked to do so.

FYI: The bootloader of an Android device is comparable to the BIOS of a Windows computer.
[General Questions and Answers] Edw590:
Actually, after some time I decided to leave CAT alone and buy a Blackview one. If I'd break the phone, at least it wouldn't be as expensive as the CAT S42 (I bought a BV9500 - not Pro or Plus, the normal one).

Since then (with help of adventures with a tablet of mine) I've learned some more things. One of them I was suspecting and was now confirmed (thank you @jwoegerbauer) which is to root the device, just a binary file is needed to be on the correct place: su. I didn't know it was on other Linux OSes though. Interesting!

So the idea is that just a recovery must be installed to root a device. That's it and nothing else, I believe. To install the recovery is the part where one might need to unlock the bootloader - or not, if the chipset manufacturer left a tool to write partitions directly, like MediaTek or Rockchip. On these 2 it's possible to write partitions directly with a locked bootloader (this means the bootloader on my 1st phone was and still is probably locked - like my BV9500 one is, and I flashed various partitions on it already, one of them, a TWRP recovery).

This explanation is for anyone else like me who would have this question. Bootloader is just to flash partitions and I think run modified ROMs too, but not too sure about that (I never use custom ROMs). [Btw, if I said something wrong, I'm happy to be corrected!]

I believe I asked this because I prefer that it's not required to unlock a bootloader to do stuff. If you screw the phone somehow with the bootloader locked and there's no tool to flash partitions on it and you must be on fastboot with an unlocked bootloader or whatever, you just bricked the phone. And I'd prefer that not to happen. That's why I chose to buy phones that don't need me to unlock the bootloader to do anything on them. That might mean I can't ever brick them (at least I never bricked my 1st phone with the various things I did on it which I later found out not being recommended at all XD).

The syntax in both our XML is fine. The only difference is the <browser> tag, which my original XML files didn't have, so I didn't think to include.

Do you happen to know the properties of your jpg? 48x48 is the standard dimension, I'm using 96DPI, but that shouldn't make too much difference.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] papalazarou:
Ok, it really doesnt seem to like Dreamweaver, so I'm doing my editing in notepad.

So I've figured that if I have a corrupt or no XML file in Manila, it reverts back to a defaul "Launch Browser" banner, with a pretty cool image of a globe. For some reason the YouTube app is also in there, so that must be pulled in from elsewhere.

If I have the correct XML, it removes the banner and uses the settings from the XML, which has no banner set. So can anyone tell me the default banner properties? I really want that "Launch Browser" banner, with my own custom links.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pomfiedel:
can you just use my xml? maybe this works and you just have to edit the path to the pictures!? i use notepad too.

cu
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] papalazarou:
No your XML has that iGoogle banner you created. I want the default one, but because it's pulling from custom XML, and no banner is specified in that, it isn't producing one.

If I remove my XML, it goes back to default, so I need to know what the default settings are (image location/name/dimensions, executable target) and then plug them into my custom XML.

But the earlier problem I was having was because I was using Dreamweaver. I'm not entirely sure why, but switching to notepad opened the thing up for me and everything works as it should, just without a banner.

If I get no info from anyone, I might post back in a new topic about it.

Hi All,

I have the 8gb/256GB EVR-AL00 which I bought to replace my L29..

There are several key things I do not like about the Chinese ROM, which were not an issue on my international L29. (Google voice wake, setting camera MP, Np bloatware, etc).

As such, would it be possible to load the INTERNATIONAL 10.1 ROM on the EVR-AL00? If so, does it require an unlocked bootloader (Huawei doesn't hand out unlock codes last time I checked).
