Please! I really need permissive for the ability to override /dev/input for my appradio. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

I can not add it in, all the usual methods do not work. Only way I know is to flash the kernel posted in Original Development. I'm not good working with kernels or I would try adding the modification.

No problem, thanks for the effort anyway. I'm currently running "the arkenstone", which sets selinux to permissive, I was just hoping to have a more stock kernel. Thanks again!

CD Installer
Any chance of modding the boot.img to remove Verizon's CD Installer that pops up when you plug into USB?
Thanks great job on this!!!

You can do this without kernel mod.
First navigate to /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu and change from OFF to ON save and exit.
Next you will want to navigate to /system/etc/autorun.iso and either rename *.bak or delete it.
Now reboot
Finally enter into your dialer *#0808#
Switch to MTP hit OK
Navigate to developer options and enable USB debugging if applicable.
All should be good.

Hmm... seems this doesn't stick through reboot. I will look into the kernel for you.

Enter once again into dialer *#0808# and switch back to MTP + ADB then Reboot

Wondering if you ever got permissive enabled to work with your app radio?
I have been working on this most of the week.
Have the S5 std edition not the dev ed. What phone are you using?
Thanks

Yes, I got it to permissive, but I've got the dev edition, so it's easy (and possible) to change the kernel. I know someone in the forums is working on permissive without kernel change, but last I read it's not completed yet. Best of luck!

Gotcha, Thanks! Im figuring out the kernel stuff. Have been flashing custom roms for years never changed the kernels.
I was under the impression that you could just flash the .zip with safestrap on an std version?
I tried that , never saw the kernel actually change. I thought I was doing something wrong. Your reply leads me to think that changing the kernel on the stock S5 isn't exactly feasible yet?
Thanks!

[MOD] Hotspot Native Enabled - Verizon - S6(Rooted) - OC3/OE2

For those that have done root. Verizon Galaxy S6- G920VVRU1AOC3/G920VVRU1AOE2 Only!!!
Differnet phones can have different frameworks. Do not attempt to flash this on a different phone unless you want to possible have to ODIN Back to stock.
This will only work if...
1. You have root on Verizon S6 - G920VVRU1AOC3/G920VVRU1AOE2
2. You have @Chainfire- Flashfire app installed so you can flash this zip file. Located here.....
I have included stock framework-res flashable if you want to go back..
Galaxy S6 Phone OnlyG920VVRU1AOC3:
Flashable HotSpot (Galaxy S6-G920VVRU1AOC3)
Flashable Revert to Stock Framework
Galaxy S6 Phone OnlyG920VVRU1AOE2:
Flashable HotSpot (Galaxy S6-G920VVRU1AOE2)
Flashable Revert to Stock Framework
Not responsibile for, you if you flash on something other than what I built this for. And if you do flash it on said device,then I am still not respondsible as this is all a risk always.. 100% time. Always a risk...

Good job! Thanks

Of all the mods I was hoping for, this is easily #1. You rock Gun! Now to read up on this flashfire stuff... guess I may as well get used to not having an unlocked BL anymore.

Thanks for this~ Seems to be working, I don't have another wifi device at work to test it.
Just a quick question, if I were to go back to stock would I have to flash to stock framework and then flash the hotspot file again or just flash the stock framework?

VZW GS6 Edge Help?!
I have the VZW GS6 Edge, however my device is G925VVRU1AOC3. Any chance of getting support with this? Or possibly the instructions to remove the tether check. I have Flashfire so would it be possible to "backup" the partition you modified and change with your instructions? Thanks for any feedback.

That's just the stock framework, you only need to flash the hotspot file. I think gun put it there to test if flash fire works on your device. Just a guess.

Were you trying to create a link to flashfire? I think that might be the confusion as there are two links in OP that both direct to the stock framework.

It disables the little cores and only enables them when the big cores become overloaded. On stock rom it gives extra smoothness because it use the big cores most of the time.In cm roms its enabled by default. Sorry, i forgot to explain

Great work mate. Could you please explain that init.d stuff a little - I'm on stock rom/kernel and haven't got init.d folder so I assumed it's simply not supported, but when I played with the rom in Superr's Kitchen it was saying that init.d is enebled in the kernel by default. It's a bit confusing - does the stock rom have this support by default?

@Sickaxis79
I just found there's no cluster_plug in my /sys/module...

You can create the init.d folder using a file browser if its missing. Im also using stock rom and it works. Im using a custom kernel, but it also works with stock kernel.

Are you sure you are missing the cluster_plug folder? Im using stock eu 6.0.1.
Its located in /sys/module/cluster_plug

I found Kernel Adiutor can emulate init.d, so it should't be a problem to execute the scripts, but anyway cluster_plug is missing. I'm on XDRom which is just debloated EU 6.0.1. I'm wondering if it's possible that debloat could actually be responsible for this

That could actually be the case as clusterplug is listed in Squid's kernel features. I guess it means it's not used in stock one

Sure, but then i saw phoenix kernel released a new msm hotplug kernel and was thinking to try to create 1 script that is compatible and work with cluster- /msm- or no hotplug at all together, instead of several scripts. Dont know if it gonna work but it can never hurt trying.

Perhaps you could use this tool to enable init.d on stock kernel - http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...ript-zip-init-d-enabler-stock-kernel-t3347724
you still need custom recovery though, to flash the zip

Make sure there is a file called "audio_effects.conf" in your /system/etc. If so it should work

@Craz Basics
I have an update for this.
Set SE Permissive via init.d instead of an app
Updated V4A
Move V4A from data to system/priv-app
If there is no init.d support in the end-users rom, they can open up V4A, hit the menu, and disable selinux from there.

[Guide]Kinda root Q DP1[CROSSHATCH]

Hey fellas , a few days ago i stumbled across this kernelsu or KernelAssistedSuperuser (read up on here)
since this is a kernel modification its working on q DP1 regardless of the new overlayfs .
I would be kinda carefull with this so , since there is no management of root access (like magiskmanager or supersu app) it just allows anything.
Also please be aware that even if ur rooted now u still cant mount system as read/write , so many rootapps / rootstuff is likely to not work.
Im not quite sure if this will trip SafetyNet or not
If u want to try it anyway , here is what to do.
Download the boot.img for DP1 from here or for DP2 here
Reboot ur phone into fastboot (if u dont know how , pls dont use this)
flash the new boot.img by typing "fastboot flash boot pathtodownloadedboothere" (without the "")
Reboot into Android
Profit
In case u would want to switch back to non root , just flash the boot.img of android q for 3xl like u flashed the rooted boot.img and ur back to stock

it could and it could not , it depends if the app needs /system to be writeable , for example adaway doesnt work bcs it wants to edit /system/etc/hosts , but luckypatcher for another example works fine bcs it only works with /data.
Just try and report what works

Anyone else try this yet?
