He hints that it will be revealed THIS THURSDAY. If so, you can expect to see updates to existing ICS ROMS and new ones popping up for a lot of phones.
Discuss.
Hi there.
Just in case you missed it...Good news for everyone.
Since HackingTeam was hacked (and their source code was leaked) we all can root our devices like they used to do with their spy tool (they were able to root all devices included those with sepolicy enabled)
The exploits are publicly available (with the source code) hey devs, take a look.
https://github.com/hackedteam/core-android-native
Systems affected:
http://www.cvedetails.com/cve/2014-3153
http://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2013-6282
it's just a matter of time and a new wave of "rooting tools" will come out....
meanwhile do not update your systems 'cause the patches will roll out very quickly, I suppose.:laugh::laugh::laugh:
If I'm not mistaken, towelroot already covered those CVEs didn't it?

Yeah, I guess not seeing the years 2013/2014 in the links wasn't obvious enough...someone just wants views/thanks..

towelroot was only one of the three exploits (+1 for the selinux injection).
The futex and put_user ones are brand new. moreover, in the code, you can see more hacks targeted at samsung devices AND knox.
I just found out that the COKC updates source code for the T-Mobile Note 5(SM-N920T) was combined and hidden with the S6+ source codes. I don't know why they did this but if you couldn't find the COKC source codes there they are.

That's Dec 15th update. Samsung regularly releases GPL licence related stuff (excluding proprietary part) on their opensource website, which can't be built as whole ROM. Kernel dev can play with it but it ain't Marshmallow.

Agreed, my point was, that is not attached to SM-N920T at all it was hidden attached to a completely different device. Also I gave the location out for devs who didn't know where to locate it.
In theory this should be quite useful, no?
Just putting this up here for those who may have lost hope, but on a whim I checked their source repository today and it would seem they've at least uploaded Kernel source!
ftp://Kernel_End_User:[email protected]/
Directory: Pure XL P0010UU (it's a bit of a mess, you may wish to CNTRL+F this)
I haven't checked their software repo yet for ROM source, but it was not uploaded when I initially found this information about a month and a half ago.
The kernel is only VANILLA STOCK source, I haven't compiled it or anything, I'm only linking their servers because I imagine that this isn't getting checked on a regular basis (not much to expect would happen). But, something has happened, so I figured I'd draw some attention to it.
Many thanks to those ROM and kernel devs who have been working to bring us some solid software. It's honestly my only major gripe with the phone.
We (me, acheron, root-expert) tried to compile this several times with CyanogenMod repos with no luck. It's from 7th December 2015 so nothing changed.

Darn. If only they were more willing to facilitate development.... the software is my only real issue with the phone. Thanks for your work, however.
Same thing here... I would love to have the latest CyanogenMod
Only for updating this post:
Kernel source, mostly ready for Marshmallow ROMs, you can find here on 'cm-13.0' branch.
Linux upstream 3.10.103
Still trying to boot it up.
Gonna update CyanogenMod thread soon.
Cheers

Out of curiosity, how have other manufacturers "facilitated" this sort of development for their products?

Some lend active support to the venture, LG has a dedicated team for liason, better documentation, etc.
I think it's probably pretty telling that it's only now the BLU source has worked - and it took them 5 months to even release it.
BLU releases kernel source codes upon request instead of proactively providing them. If they're asked for on launch, then the kernel source is released shortly after. So I don't believe the claim that it took 5 months to release.
Can you show me proof of other manufacturers lending support to show BLU?
NVMD.

Your belief is irrelevant. They have had many requests, and always it is a referral to the FTP site they host. This site did not populate with the kernel/rom source for quite a few months after I bought the phone, and I was already behind the curve by about 2. I purchased mine on the 30th of December, 2015. I made this post the day after I noticed they had Kernel/Rom. If the URL was still working, I could verify for you the time limit. With that said, it was approximately 5 months.
As for other manufacturers lending support.... ZTE for instance is collaborating with Cyanogenmod, LG proactively provides source and has actually tried to make the process quite simple for most of their phones, and ultimately, contacting BLU about the matter is functionally worthless, as BLU is a reseller and at the whim of Gionee. BLU can't help because they don't do R&D or software as I can tell for the phone.
I'm particularly pissed about the fact I asked before I bought the phone if source was available and it was GPL compliant and I was told yes. 5 months is just a little outside of Amazon's return policy. The Pure XL is a good phone, but the software is quite lacklustre. CM would really be the bees' knees.

Well I'm obviously not going to bother contacting my connections at BLU with that attitude. Good luck guys!

I should correct myself slightly. Supposing my e-mail record is correct, they released it 4 months after the phone. I say your belief isn't relevant because a fact is a fact.... as of April 5th, I was still getting apologies from them about Kernel source not being available, specifically, "No ETA on source at this time". Ergo, it could have been longer.
As for BLU, I'm just being honest. They don't develop, they're a reseller.

Just a small update;
Linux kernel upstream: 3.10.104
Regenerated defconfig as well, the same branch.
I'll try it with full build today.
https://www.google.co.in/amp/www.bg...d-nougat-7-1-1-update-starts-rolling-out/amp/
So where exactly has this started to roll out as you suggest? All I see is a screen shot, nobody appears to have reported actually receiving it on their device, and so this thread is no different to the one that already exists at http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...orola-moto-x-style-running-android-7-t3525002 which you have already participated in. Why create a second and useless thread?
No, it isn't... The roll-out has NOT started, it isn't even in beta testing to MFN users yet (at least, no one I know of in MFN has seen it yet). This was a test on a benchmark site, there isn't even proof that it is of an official "alpha" ROM, it could just be someone running a 7.1.1 custom ROM and spoofed the OEM/ROM/Phone data, or this could be a Moto employee playing with a pre-release Alpha ROM (Moto X Play was a favorite of Moto employees, read the official forums and lots of employees mention they use this device).
I see absolutely no evidence of a rollout starting.
One benchmark of dubious authenticity does not a rollout make.
OP, are you just trying to build a post count?
I have yet to see you type something that's not completely worthless.
i thought you were received the update...
Another piece of fiction? Closed.
