Most likely not. The method I use was introduced in Lollipop and I'm not aware of a similar method with the same comfort on previous versions. Won't your device receive an update to Android 5.0?

There shouldn't be any issues with this app on Android 5.1, however, if anybody experiences issues please post.

After a more in depth check this turns out to be wrong. I'm unable to get the app working on Android 5.1 at this time. Once I find a solution I'll post again.

Still no success with Android 6.0 (or 5.1).

Yes, you're right. Multiuser support is what you're talking about, and it is available from android version 4.2.2 and above. It is enabled on tablets by default. For phones, you would need to flash custom ROMs that have multiuser support. If you're not on 4.2.2+, then you could try the SwitchMe app on the Playstore instead (requires root).

Since I do not know much about your device, you should probably ask this question here:

You're bound to get a better answer that way!
P.S. When you ask in that forum, avoid using words like 'best rom' or 'stable rom'.

[App] Srlabs releases "SnoopSnitch" for detecting IMSI-Catchers, silent SMS...
unfortunetely it only works with some qualcom based devices, you can find a list of working devices under:
https://opensource.srlabs.de/projects/snoopsnitch/wiki/DeviceList
new version is out: 0.9.3
Version 0.9.3
Support Android 5

SnoopSnitch is an Android app that collects and analyzes mobile radio data to make you aware of your mobile network security and to warn
you about threats like fake base stations (IMSI catchers), user tracking and over-the-air updates. With SnoopSnitch you can use the data collected in the GSM Security Map at gsmmap.org and contribute your own data to GSM Map.
This application currently only works on Android phones with a Qualcomm chipset and a stock Android ROM. It requires root priviliges to capture mobile network data.
Requirements:
Qualcomm-based Android phone (see list below)
Stock Android ROM, version 4.1 or later
Note: Unfortunately, custom Android ROMs like CyanogenMod are not supported, as they lack the drivers necessary to collect radio data.
Root privileges on phone
Tested Devices:
The following devices have been verified to work:
Samsung S3 Neo (GT-I9301I)
LG G2 (LG-D802)
Sony Xperia Z1 (C6903)
Samsung S5 (SM-G900F)
Motorola Moto E (Moto E)
Samsung S4 (Qualcomm variant)
It is very likely that other Qualcomm-based Android phones also work, if they are rooted and have a stock firmware.
Incompatible Devices:
The following devices have been found to be incompatible and can not be used with SnoopSnitch:
UNSUPPORTED: Every device without a Qualcomm chipset
UNSUPPORTED: Every device with custom ROM
UNSUPPORTED: Samsung Galaxy S2 & S3
UNSUPPORTED: Nexus 5
UNSUPPORTED: Huawei Ascend Y300

Possibly your kernel lacks the necessary support. For instance people with a Nexus 5 can flash this kernel: http://d-h.st/mmb (thanks to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/radio-enable-lte-band-3-nexus-5-d820-t2928561). About what the OP said: I can't see why this app wouldn't work on a custom ROM such as CM11 as long as the kernel has the necessary options.

Well, Carsten Nohl, one of the developers, said yesterday on 31C3, that on CustomROMS like CM certain proprietary drivers are missing, which are needed for getting certain debugging information. Later yesterday in a workshop on 31C3 participants found out, that on some CM11 Phones the app is working.
There the app worked on:
Samsung S3 Neo
Samsung S5
LG G2
Sony Xperia Z1
Motorola Moto E
and dind't work on
Samsung S2, S3, S4 and S5 Exynos
Nexus 5
Fairphone
you can watch the presentation from Nohl on 31C3 here:
http://media.ccc.de/browse/congress...830_-_mobile_self-defense_-_karsten_nohl.html
on my nexus5 with slimkat 8.20 it says:
"device /dev/diag does not exist"
About the compatible devices - I can confirm the app works on on Xperia V with the stock 4.3 Android. It gives no errors, but I have not yet encountered malicious GSM cells to verify the detection works ok.
Why do we have to make long distance calls and send sms to use this app?

Sure I did. It doesn't say why we have to call/sms a specific number and why we data can't be gathered from our every day call/sms and why data can't be sent to the test site through the internet rather than call/sms.

You need to flash a compatible kernel. http://d-h.st/mmb
Works on my SONY Xperia Z1 with CM11.
Though, when doing the test call my device was banned, for whatever reason....
Yeah I can (probably) confirm this with Z1 compact with CM 11. Works since day one I guess. The test works (around the first days incoming calls and sms did not, probably because of overload of the callingserver), but never had any sort of attacks. Now I'm in doubt if radio-part does not work with cm 11, as mentioned in the description, or there were zero attacks.
Another thing I observed. The software sometimes produces many wake-locks. But I guess thats normal if backgroundservice is active.
@ papperlapapp: Did you monitor any attacks (SS7 or silent sms)? Or even IMSI-catchers?
Installed the app without problems on my S5 with Phoenix ROM (Stock Based). However, when I start the active test, the app stops responding and android asks me several times if I want to close it. I chose no every time. Now I'm wondering if the tests are still running in the background or if the app just hang. Started the tests about 35 min ago, still waiting, absoluteley nothing happened yet.
Why not install something like https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=monitor&fdid=com.eolwral.osmonitor and see if that task is stil running?
Usefull tool anyway
happy monitoring

[ROOT ANDROID][2.x-6.0] KINGROOT: The One-Click Root Tool for Almost All Devices

PLEASE READ​
Rooting carries a risk and may void your device's warranty.
Google Security may block the installation of Kingroot. Either choose to "Install Anyway" or disable your internet connection to continue.
There is both an Android version and a PC version available. Please be aware that the PC version may flash a third party recovery onto your device.
In case Purify isn't something you need, it can be easily removed.
If you uninstall KingRoot, you will lose root access. Reinstalling and re-rooting should be a simple process, however.
While you certainly can replace KingRoot with SuperSU, we can't guarantee success.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
More information can be found below.
------------------------​
INTRODUCTION​KingRoot is an amazing tool for anyone wants to obtain root. Whether you don't have enough experience for more advanced methods (or there are no other methods available), or you prefer a one-click solution, KingRoot is here for you. It's also completely FREE to use!
While rooting with Kingroot, the most suitable root strategy will be deployed from cloud. This method ensures your device will be rooted, if a strategy is available. Most of our supported devices boast a success rate higher than 60%!
------------------------​
DOWNLOADS​
Download KingRoot 5.3.7​
MD5 Hash:
e11eb2dae8620f28d11328a80385c8a6​
Get KingRoot PC in English​
Visit Purify
If installed, Purify will help your device run faster, cooler and longer by killing resource-hogging background apps and preventing them from auto-starting. There is also a feature to help you organize and archive your notifications. Go try it out.
Many of Purify's features require root. However, there are still plenty of things it can do if root is not available.
Download Purify on Google Play​
------------------------​
MORE INFO​
What's Installed
SU Binary -- This is required to obtain superuser (root) access. It's generally installed to /system/xbin.
Purify -- You can find more information about this in the downloads section. It will be installed to /data/app/.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
PC Version >>> Direct Download
The PC version of KingRoot is more powerful than the Android version. If the mobile app isn't able to root your device, you may have more luck with this, especially if you own a Samsung device.
If there is no available root strategy for your device
Be patient! We are working to ensure as many devices as possible can enjoy root. If our app fails on your device, please use the in-app request system (which is automatic in later releases). Posting here won't speed the process up or give you special treatment. Success/failure reports are also automatic, so there's no need to post here about those, either.
------------------------​
Information Collection
There is some discomfort about KingRoot's data collection, but there's nothing to worry about.
If you are afraid we're taking your IMEI to use it to make a counterfeit phone, don't be. We have no interest or knowledge in that matter.
Data collection is for more accurate deployment of available root strategies. We need to get some information about your device and the software running on it in order to provide you with the most successful root strategy we have for you.
While we do collect your IMEI, it is encrypted in transit, and only used to accurately calculate the success rate of our root strategies.
This information is not saved on our servers; it just isn't worth the trouble. We have a lot of users downloading and using our app. To host all that information, we'd need to spend large sums of money for server space, and that just isn't practical for a free service.

FAQ
Q: Why KingRoot can not be removed ?!
A: This situation always happened on some devices with system protection mechanism such as SONY, HUAWEI and so on. Sometimes, root strategy only can close these system protection mechanism temporarily during root process. That's why KingRoot can be installed. However, after root finished or device reboot, system protection mechanism will enable again. After that, system can not be mounted. That's why KingRoot can not be removed.
Q: What can I do if KingRoot can not be removed ?!
A: If you can not remove KingRoot , please try to force stop KingRoot, clear data of it and root device with KingRoot again. Then unroot it immediately.
Q: All questions about SuperSu !
A: Please click here for answer.
Q: How to improve root success rate (Especially for ZTE Zmax)?
A: Click here for answer please
Q: Why the desktop version can be better?? And which CUSTOM RECOVERY does it install?? Will it trig KNOX??
A: Because of desktop version not depends on system exploit but to flash a Rom with Su binary, it's more easily and violent. CUSTOM RECOVERY includes CWN and some self made recovery which developed by ourselves or our partner teams. And we have a reason to believe that desktop version will trig KNOX
Q: Does KingRoot on Samsung trig Knox flag to 0x1?
A: Click here for answer please
Q: Can KingRoot root the phone with wi-fi and mobile data turned off?
A: No, it downloads the best exploit for the device, on the fly
Q: Which permissions does this app exactly ask ?
A: Permissions of KingRoot required all can be seen when you install it. We need so many permissions because some root solution need to be run on them.
Q: What is the benefit of paying coders for support if the app is free?
A: We sponsored by one of the biggest IT company of China, lots app of them need to get root access through us.
Q: How to replace KingRoot with SuperSu?

I am trying this on my sch-i535pp.
The previous versions (4.0) would cause the device to reboot and an orange android symbol. Hopefully this version works
I'll update this after I see.
Update:

I will help make the English better if needed
Kernel build date is July 22nd 2014.
Android version 4.4.2.
I would have root right now if I did not have a locked bootloader...

[APP] [ROOT] [Android 4.1+] [v1.106] nMAC - Nil MAC Changer

What is nMAC?
nMAC(Nil MAC Changer) is a root application that can change your Android device's MAC address.
Why?
There are a lot of privacy concerns regarding Android's static MAC addresses. The possibility of being tracked everywhere is just one of the problems involved. This app aims to solve this issue by giving you, the user, control over your device's wireless identity. nMAC is intended to be used only for legal, non-malicious purposes, which do not involve unfairly abusing various wireless services. If you do not comply with these terms, please do not use this app.
Features:
A unique MAC file layout system
Works when other tools can't
Very fast and easy to implement support for more devices
Yet a generic approach
Persistent change
Safe backup and restore of original MAC address
Asynchronous, non-blocking & responsive design
No reboot required
MAC randomization functionality
Ability to set custom MAC address
Officially supported devices:
Google:
Nexus 5X
Nexus 5
Samsung:
Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo
Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini
Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini

A: The first 6 hex digits represent your device's manufacturer. You will get kicked from some routers if these digits are totally random. More here
Q: I messed up!
A: Restore the backup (original MAC address) by clicking on the button.
Q: I messed up and I deleted the app!
A: Reinstall the app and restore the backup (original MAC address) by clicking on the button. The backup file is saved on your external storage under /.nMAC/ and you may also restore it manually.
Q: My device is unsupported!
A: Create a new device layout
Request support for your device
Q: I really, really messed up and something doesn't work anymore
A: If restoring the backup doesn't help, try flashing your factory images.

I only need to check if 5ghz uses a different MAC because there are 4 MAC addresses / interface configurations pressent but i already know one of them as it matched the one in the WiFi settings
/persist/WCNSS_qcom_cfg Intf0MacAddress=C0EEFB43FAxx (removed last 2 hex characters) this is 1 of the 4 addresses present that us sure te be one of them
Edit2; if i have time tomorrow i might look into making a pull request

This would be immense help! Please check my newly created guide to implementing support here - you will save yourself a lot of time. If you can't make it work or don't have time, please let me know and I will implement it ASAP. If that's the case, please make sure you send me this info first.
Also, I never thought about 2.4GHz and 5GHz having a different MAC. Please let me know if you find they are different because currently I change only one of them on the Nexus 5X! Thanks!

My access points don't seem to be reporting other macs also they are not AC access points. Using hotspot will use a different MAC address, i found a option for that.

Very good to know! I haven't considered changing the hotspot MAC (yet). It can be added on my to do if it's important to people.

For me it's not a priority, also in my config it is already set to something completely different, don't know how unique it is though.

It matches the whole file. This is crucial for safely reasons.

My pull request should work then, haven't tested as i don't have a android development environment setup
v1.105 released with OnePlus One support and bug fixes + improvements! @topjor please confirm it works on your device.
Could you add Support for the LG G5?

Android Developer Preview Discussion Thread

Hey Guys,
Want to discuss about the latest android developer preview
Will share the findings here.
All are welcome to do it here.
Hope we can create a stable preview soon.
First of all, apps which need to pass a security check don't work in the current build:
- Netflix
- Pokemon Go
- Others?
* The new gesture navigations options can't be found yet under Settings > System > Gestures. Although you can find the 3 options if you search in the settings, you can't change it.
* Some settings can only be changed via the developer options (accent colors, icon shape).
* Signal bar is not visible in the notification bar
Yup.
And fortunately, i am not facing some problems which are mentioned on the Nokia's community page.
Some missing features which i noticed are -
1. Gestures
2.Buggy Download manager
3.VoLTE seems to be working but not completely. I can receive calls but not make calls and send/receive sms.
4.Camera works fine. However, its the vanilla version of Camera app provided by Qualcomm so nothing special expected from it. Nokia will replace that app with it's own in upcoming builds.
5.External storage like SD card is not accessible by third-party apps but only system apps compatible with Android Q . I guess there are some changes with Storage framework because of which apps are not able to access SD card. Checked this with Whatsapp, instagram.
6.Apps requiring Google certifications/safety net or something similar would not work because the OS is still in Development phase.
7.Fingerprint is working fine, but is slow.
8.Dark theme is not properly applied over settings app.
9.Files app crashes when refreshing.
If you are reading this and thinking to update to Android Q Dev Preview. I would like to clarify that the OS is still in development and may get even worse with every update.
So, if you are not ready to use other phone as a backup do not update to Q.
Definitely facing all the above mentioned issues, in addition to Whatsapp being unable to restore backups from Google drive.
Anyways i made the mistake as installing this as my daily driver... Do you guys have any idea if it's possible to rollback even if there's no official support for that?

just saw it... "We are currently unable to support rollback to Android 9 Pie. We hope to have manual rollback support available by 16 May 2019. The website will be updated as soon as manual rollback is available." https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_int/developer/

This is preview beta. Very unstable and more for developers. When Q OTA comes your hardware won't change. That's permanent. ?

Yes I am too waiting for some one to start on custom rom.
---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 PM ----------
as android app developer. want to start building up rom for our phone Nokia 8.1
not sure no body yet started discussion on this.
Nevermind...
There is any changes in Beta 5 OTA build? Because when I flashed developer preview manually, there was a serious bug, if I touch fingerprint sensor device was stopped working only reboot is option, even if device is just locked and if I touch on fingerprint device stopped working, so I simply rolled back to pie
Recently installed Android 10 OTA build version 00WW_4_070 (directly from pie). I see a working option to unlock the bootloader under the developer options page. Any devs working on rooting and/or a custom rom?

I installed the ota update (v5) last night. I had faced the same issue regarding the fingerprint sensor after manual install. For the time being, I see that the phone is working well. But when I m receiving calls, I am not able to answer right away. The phone app is freezing or disappearing in the background.
