[General Questions and Answers] AstralA:
So I have a lg l58bl. Its supposedly unrootable. But before I knew that I tried to use kingroot on it hoping that app could do it. (I had read it could work on a nearly identical phone model in terms of hardware/processor.)

But it didnt work. Well it seemed like it halfway did. I could access some stuff I couldnt before but still my profile was not seen as rooted. I think I changed a fuse setting file and bricked.

Did a factory reset. Then my brightness would auto adjust to 65% even after I set it to 0% 50 times. Did that a minute after booting.

Then I tried searching in directories and found a lot of kingroot files. Some that are documented. Some that are not. Like a "kr." File in some place like bin. It was a file written to run every boot to restructure the permission tree and give the newly added account of kr full root. Pretty simple solution.

So this phone was abanodoned out of fear of infection. I didnt know if itd be safe to connect to internet on it. So ive isolated it until I can know.

I worried my brightness was due to some kr malware stuff. Although I read that auto brightness was a feature lg phones had for sales room display until a sim was used. But even after inserting an old sim. It still auto adjusted with auto brightness OFF. So how I fixed it was wait until it booted, change to 0. Before it could auto adjust yank batterty out and then remove sim. (Sim doesnt have to be valid). Now it doesnt auto adjust. When I powered it off by button it took an extra bit like it was rewriting a configuration for brightness. That was a problem that took a while. Now

Can anyone give me a list of all kr related files so I can delete anything fishy? I found this but it doesnt help much.I worry this method would miss some of those files. https://xdaforums.com/t/2020-replace-kingroot-v5-x-or-kingo-root-with-supersu.3904880/

Unfortunately there is no firmware download for LG Rebel 2 LTE tracfone - all links are down or fake
[General Questions and Answers] AstralA:
So alecxs, saw you in this topic https://xdaforums.com/t/kingroot-malware-adware-root.3563090/page-3

You got any ideas in your wise experience?

On that kr txt file, files I saw in my phone are not listed there. 1 was an html5 file.

Whats worse, if I recall right I did not have permission to delete 1 of the files.

If I get the courage to try ill see if I can find those files again.

So as it stands, without fastboof or download mode (lol fastboof)

And no kdz. And kr mystery. The thing might as well be bricked?

I would like to use this phone on the net but I suppose that goose was cooked unless someone knows a way.

I had tried supersume pro I think but it failed.

If only there was a way to wipe partitions in factory reset mode but it just has a white background menu.

Anybody know if I could intentionally corrupt or delete the partition with the spy files? Probably not easy without root. But I did somehow edit 1 of the main config files and move it back to the main dir renamed old file and restarted to brick. But not sure if kr was given me halfroot or the facade of root.

Hmm. if im using this online wouldnt I risk infecting others through that? Like if kr is running a background daemon couldnt they inject things into files?

If only it was that easy lol. Thanks though
[General Questions and Answers] alecxs:
The best you can do is root that phone with kingroot, then use the kingroots official unroot/uninstall menu within the kingroot app.

Do not try to wipe system partition without having backup or stock rom.
[General Questions and Answers] AstralA:
Hmm. Looking more and more hopeless. Becausd I bricked after root attempt(which failed) but still kingroot managed to install stuff. Some in places I dont hVe permissions to do anything with.

I would guess it used like dirtycow or w/e to install through temp?

And now that its factory reset even ifi install kr again to uninstall wont there still be the instance of kr from before brick?

Crap.

Well unless I can figure out a way I guess this phones toast. I really dont feel comfortable using it with potentially malicious files hidden in it running on boot.

Not that huge of a loss but I would like to use it
[General Questions and Answers] alecxs:
Kingroot has a very clean Uninstaller and will remove itself completely. If there is any (potential) malware left this is not caused by Kingroot, it's more likely you accidentally granted root access to that malware.
[General Questions and Answers] AstralA:
Kingroot was the only app installed after factory reset. So that file could only come from kingroot. It had kr in the file name anyway. Oh well. If I do anything with it ill lock all internet and use a linux installation. But probably wont even do that. Kingroot as good as ransomware because good luck cleaning up afterwards. sounds like kingroot used to not be so bad. But maybe it was that malicious and nobody suspected until it was too late.

Edit: of course kingroot is great if you have a firmware to reinstall and all else fails. Like pos devices stuck in read only from manufacturer.

But it sucks to not feel able to safely use a device that I payed money for. Which was the problem from the manufacturer as well.

I still didnt find the files in question because it would be a crap chore but I did recall kingroot failed to get root initially, then after trying again it bricked. But I could still get to factory reset holding vol up and pow. But even though kingroot failed to get root it did manage to install files in read only directories (ro without root). Presumably adding a new user with permissions that the main user lacks. But thats the problem. Theres not a way for me to access the directories where the files are. Because kr cant give the main original user those permissions I guess...

I heard of a similar tactic to root fire hd 3rd gens that auto updated to be fstabbed stuck in ro with no bootloader access.

Use kingroot to brick the fire then after bricking fastboot works.

But if I did that with the phone I still lack a dz or kdz/img. But I could try installing a different phones kdz that uses the same board/cpu. As far as I can tell theres a resistor on those pcbs to determine brand/service provider.

The k7 is identical for instance (in terms of hardware) but the last time I tried that it did flash but then the phone is bricked hard. Lgup cant recognize the model because the k7 firmware doesnt match whatever bits are used to sign what version it is (m151 or ls675) yet the cpu and ram matches.

But I might try that in my desperation.

Also words of wisdom. Dont cross flash firmware because it will usually end in brick.

I only entertain that thought because of the situation.

Although if someone knew where I could find the bits to set phone model in firmware? Thatd help. Anyway. Thanks and cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] JG-231:
Sorry guys, don't flog me too hard. I'm totally new to all of this stuff, I went through the process and rooted my tab using magisk and now that its done have no idea how to go about deleting all the apps and bs that I don't want residing on my tablet, I had no plans on using this tablet, its been sitting in a drawer unused since the wife upgraded but I read about how to use an unused android to control my 3d printer and was intrigued.

Is there an app I use or what? I'm totally green to these sorts of things and honestly if it wasnt for a youtube video guide I never would have made it this far.... What's next in the lineup to make the root worth while?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Abish:
Guessing to debloat you need help, l'd say use A7cleanup.sh if you don't want to risk file system and just improve performance.

Also make sure to disable Knox that also helps with smooth performance.

[FYT Android Head Units] kommando:
What are your criteria for choosing.
[FYT Android Head Units] shadxw:
I want to run apple carplay on it and i need it to be somewhat reliable.

I had an old 2DIN xtrons unit with android that died and i don't think that big brands like Xtrrons/joying are much more reliable than others, but they have better cuatomer support.

I was looking for units with uis7862 chipset because i saw a lot of posts about them.I thought that 3-4gb of ram is enough for running carpaly around 2 years.

I was expecting good/bad feedback about these brands in general
[FYT Android Head Units] kommando:
All the FYT units come from the one factory, the seller defines any customisation usually via software so they all have the same FYT hardware reliability.

You gauge the support from the seller by looking at the Aliexpress reviews noting that they can be distorted.

Teyes probably have the best support but you pay for it in locked features and the highest price.

There are no Android 11 or 12 units, they are fake and Android 10.

If you want it for Carplay then you really only need a display unit not a fully functioning head unit. A lot cheaper and if it goes wrong buy another.
[FYT Android Head Units] marchnz:
Avoid, buy a genuine apple carplay unit. These are not.

Refer genuine units here:

iOS - CarPlay - Available Models

Find out which car manufacturers currently offer, or are planning to introduce, models that support CarPlay.

www.apple.com

Xtrons and joying are not real brands. They are resellers of various factories/manufacturers.

Good luck.
[FYT Android Head Units] shadxw:
My car is from 2009 and i want to keep it for 2 more years.I don't think it's worth buying a genuine one that's around 1k second hand.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
I agree. But if you insist on CarPlay or Android Auto and do not want to buy a 10.000+ euros/dollar car only for Carplay/AA, you better buy a cheap Android unit specifically designed for AA or CarPlay like a Podofo or a Carpuride (not FYT units).

The FYT units discussed here (7862/sc9853i and to lesser extend 8581) are high-performance units to be used as full Android units.

These Podofo and Carpuride units are low-performance units. They use more or less the same reverse-engineered Zlink/Carlink app, but are cheap.

And also for these units: Google and search Youtube.
[FYT Android Head Units] Hujeros:
I am new in Android HU, so sorry for dummy question. But what is the main difference between "FYT based" and "not FYT based" HU even if they have the same MCU UIS7862S ? Have bought S5 from Ossuret/Hizpo and it seems that it is "not FYT" and i should focused to its related forum. But i want to know pros and cons to both version

I'm also interested in whether "FYT based" applications or workarounds will also work on "not FYT", for example NAVRadio+...
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
You have the new SnapDragon 800 Gen2 CPU family. It is used by Samsung, Oppo, Motorola and a number of others. Even though it is the same CPU, it doesn't make the Samsung compatible with one of the others.

Same for the uis7862 chip in the Android units. They have diferent MCUs requiring different drivers and "pass-through" commands from Android layer to hardware layer.

For NavRadio ask @KoTiX2 in his relevant NavRadio thread. It works on some cPUs and some hardware platforms.
[FYT Android Head Units] Hujeros:
Thanks for the explanation, it makes sense.

So let's say there are two main manufacturers of these HUs and the rest is just branding.

But what are the main differences and advantages/disadvantages (more opened system, more editing options, etc.)?

Generally speaking, if I have "FYT", the instructions/modifications in the given thread will help me, and the same for "not FYT" - regardless of the HU brand itself. Am i right ?? And sorry again for "newbie" questions ...
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Ossuret/hizpo are based on Roco K706 firmwares with QF01/QF03 kind of MCU.

NavRadio+ is already compatible with these models starting on version 3.00.

Somebody have reported problems with 1-3 seconds audio silence every minute or so that seem to be caused by the Bluetooth application that request focus.

Normally this goes away resetting the Bluetooth with the dedicated reset button in that app.

Anyway you can test NavRadio basic version by your own before buying the full version.

Regarding a comparison with FYT devices, there are no relevant differences on radio side except:

- on FYT you can set the signal sensitivity.

- on FYT the AF function doesn't work at all
[FYT Android Head Units] Hujeros:
Once again thank you, so no big differences . We will see how reliable and durable it will be. So far I am satisfied after the first test...

How is this going to work with NetOdin?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
I don't use NetOdin and i grabbed this from /data/fota inside my watch4. The files are structured the same an a regular OTA and because i haven't checked for myself on this watch....I'm sure this could be side loaded...but if I'm wrong...let me know....I'll add in OP....
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] butchieboy:
Thanks for grabbing it👍. But in order to flash it will have to be done remotely. Once extracted it doesn't just give AP..CP.. etc. Maybe we need to do this remotely with adb which is possible I think. Just rename it to update.zip . If I am wrong someone correct me.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] butchieboy:
As soon as I can I will give it a go😬
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
Yes sir...

Rename to update.zip (it was that name originally when I pulled it) and adb sideload....i believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] adfree:
FOTA Delta aka update.zip NOT for netOdin...

This is only incremental update...

I NEVER found way to use... without rooted Watch...

In theory MAYBE way with rooted Phone...

But I have only tiny brain and limited time...

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
Thanks for the info. I have followed some of the research you have made available in regards to FOTA/DELTA. You're research has given me some clues as to how to handle other Samsung devices firmware. I'm working on repacking an OTA with a modified boot or init_boot (depending on device) and using same certs to try to pass. By I'm having issues repacking it all to generate a payload.bin which in turn when pushed in the right menu...will output update.zip and in same menu....will allow flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] butchieboy:
I tried to repack to bin file then rename to update.zip. Was able to connect to adb remotely. Repackingfile did not work. Adb sees watch but not file
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
Yeah that's something on the end of my list...to research on and crack. S22U and VZW P7P...are on the top of my list at the moment. But i figure once this come along....Watch 4 should be a walk in the park as it does have fastboot at least already.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] adfree:
Watch 4 and 5 is not easy...

All things are blocked on Watch side...

A

You have no write access to:

/data/fota

To push update.zip to this folder...

B

You have NO Fastboot... not with USB cable not without...

Stock Bootloader sboot.bin NOT support Fastboot Commands...

C

Sideload also blocked... also with USB cable...

D

FOTA Manager blocked...

Blocked

Blocked

.

.

IMHO 1 chance with rooted Phone and activity blabla...

Or someone is able to find way to push to /data/fota

Plan for 2023...

If I have more time I will add few examples... what I mean...

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
Ahh....so let me ask you this...is "system" the owner of /data/fota? I can check but I don't have the device with me right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] adfree:
Really good Question... will check...

Yeah 1 idea was to check this Device Owner thingie...

But was too lazy... and not smart enough...

I mean this:

Maybe something like this possible with Filemanager or...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] wr3cckl3ss1:
How about if i told u.....if "system" was the owner and has rw access....wouldn't it be enough to let's says CP or MV an modified update.zip to the directory /data/fota and see what happems
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] adfree:
I can not do something in /data/fota

Not mkdir nor something like this...

I will later check what you asked... now I have to leave...

This is for S22...and system is definitely owner that has r/w access...so I'm sure it's the same for Watch 4.

I asked someone about the Ota you posted. They believe since it's an Ota it's signed zip and can't be modified in order to sideload

The Google Pixel 6 Pro is equipped with a high-end LTPO AMOLED display. The 6.71" panel features a 120Hz refresh rate which automatically scales down to...

If that's comparable to what you currently have & it meets your brightness needs, then go for it.

I'd go for the Pixel 7 Pro, it's incrementally better all around & has a much brighter display.

[Google Pixel 6a] tarun0:
Hi!

I'm considering buying Pixel 6a for its worth at around 300USD worth but after using Android for several years, I'm concerned about security after rooting, like after theft etc.

Afaik, if bootloader is unlocked, the thief can just flash a new image and that's it!

It's different with iOS where icloud lock (even after jailbreak) can render the device practically unusable.

Can someone guide if some kind of google lock is a possibility nówadays with Android or newer versions of Android?
