You missed my point. I'm not flashing anything from an unknown "developer." Who knows what's in here!

I find this from Samsung S5, Themes and Apps block and note 3 block,
My finding is that it is working on my verizon S5 100%.
I just want to benefit to other thats all.

Unless he inserted malicious code and rebuilt the libraries, chances are that if it passes the exploit test, you're good to go.

Does this work on KK 4x ROMs ?

Its for Lollipop Rom only

Bumping this to verify quality- still haven't found a working SS fix for S5s on 5.0 based ROMs- will report back.
Edit: Fixed one of the two vulnerable CVEs.
CVE-2015-6602 (remote code exec vuln in libutils) still remains present after flashing this though
On the bright side this is the first step to progress in fixing Stagefright vulns for 5.0 based ROMS that actually works. Excellent job!

Thank you joeykrim for the following:
RADIO - the radio is updated through a radio.diff.
SYSTEM - no system/app files are changed
it appears this OTA is much more extensive than the previous OTA.

it also appears to patch:
16 files in system/bin
etc/wimax/
etc/firmware/fw_bcm4329.bin and (ap)
31 files in framework
28 files in lib
2 files in lib/modules - bcm4329.ko and sequans_sdio.ko
SYSTEM updated files (might be more, researching now):
wifi module - BCM4329B1_002.002.023.0396.0402.hcd
android.hardware.camera.flash-autofocus.xml
android.hardware.telephony.cdma.xml
ton of framework files
libCamera_donut.so
libCamera_eclair.so
Fixes & Bugs:
From user npace: (I extracted and fastboot flashed the kernel zImage. Here's a rundown of the issues that I tested for fixes
1. Touch input lag -- fixed -- tried with multitouch visualizer 2
2. Improperly grounded touchscreen -- fixed -- tried on multiple surfaces
3. 30 fps cap -- still there
same radio by your title?
Appears to be. I am waiting for it to finish downloading and I will attempt to upload.
This thread will probably be moved / deleted but I was just letting everyone know. Personally I am going to wait to hear from the Dev's on this download before even touching it.
is this breaking root access.. some unrevoked users via face book saying unrevoked is no longer working.. i guess they should have went all out and did the full root

Even if you rooted via toasts method, i would not update until a custom ROM is put out with the update included. You could lose root ability forever.
Anyone know the location of system updates are stored on the phone? I am trying to locate using the adb shell but have had no luck finding the download yet.

i didn't look into the last one and this is my first HTC phone so im not familiar with their OTA process.
perhaps try /cache? or any type of temp directory on /data or /sdcard?

I'd recommend not installing it at all until the devs here have had a chance to go through it and release it themselves. You risk loosing your root if you don't. Then follow their release instructions to apply it.
Btw the radio is 2.05.00.06.10 with this update.

No, looks like just about all the preloaded APK's are in there, including the Sprint crap. I assume if you apply it as stock you'll get them back, but I could be wrong.

The official froyo release from HTC / Sprint will definitely contain all the "Sprint Junk" and if you've given up root to one of these updates and go to apply that it will all come back. You may never get root again in order to re - clean it up once you apply froyo.
Be patient. It won't take the devs here long to cook up an update for us. Flipz had the rooted .6 update rom out in 24 hours or so...
.....
Just took a look inside the zip file. All the apk files are there, including the sprint junk...
Just installed....all is well with root...

[ROM[S3][TEST] MIUI Port For One S C2

can we flash this over 4.0.3 or do we need 4.0.4 as base ?

[CASE CLOSED][Q] Possibility for SuperSU Pro Flashable ZIP?

Is it possible to insert the SuperSU Pro Key to flashable SuperSU (maybe with a little bit modification in the script?) so whenever I flash it, it is in Pro version automatically? No need for separate installation...

So true sir...
There's no reason to answer why would I go to pro when I can enable pro features for free,,, when I have already the key.
What really matter for now is, if it possible to flash 2 apk in just 1 flashable zip.
I think its possible (somehow)... but I don't know how to create flashable zip. Moreover, I really don't know how to create additional script (or what script to be added) needed to be used in order for key be installed too while SuperSU is being flashed.
Seems like, I what to learn on how to create script that will command to install SuperSU then the key afterwards.
If I'm not mistaken (as I am not a developer or what but a totally noob)... commands/scripts in a flashable zip are written in .sh file?

There is no ne to do this...... Just select any apk file abd put it to /system/app folder and restart your device
Would like to further understand something from this too
(i do have linux background)
Technically speaking, what is a rooted device? Is it having the su binary available? Is that what it means?
But then, supersu says that it needs a 'rooted device'.. this is quite rather confusing. doesnt supersu provide root access to apps?
couldnt you combine the key and the app using lucky patcher or a diffrent method?
My device:
Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (rooted)
Rom:AOSP
Carrier:At&t

I'll thank you if you could give me the procedure on how to combine the key. (Or if I searched for it for giving me an idea)... I havent used Lucky Patcher before. If I am able to combine the two in just 1 apk, then I might just replace the existing apk from the flashable zip so when I flashed it, its in pro version automatically.

Are you really pertaining to "pro key" apk too or other apk file?
It works for other apk but didn't work for pro key apk (in my case)...
AND I am wrong for my term "push" when I did not actually push it, but rather flashed it...
I flashed it right after flashing flashable SuperSU.
I placed the pro key inside a zip file>system>app (Idk where that zip file originated)... then flashed it
(all via cwm recovery).
(Btw, that zip file is really meant to flash apk to system/app or system/framework if you are afraid to push.)
Then after that, "reboot system now".
Viola! Nothings happen, but to go to system/app (look for the pro key) then install it there then restart.
(It works after that.)

It doesn't work. Maybe you just put the pro key inside the zip and you didn't even bother to modify the script so its useless.

Yes, exactly.
The problem is that people have adopted the term rooted to also mean access to the root of the filesystems, iow, the / directory. ("Just place this file on the root of your SD card," being the most common example of that usage.)
Anyway, with / access you can remount /system to rw instead of ro, and from there you can install the su binary (either in /system/bin or /system/xbin depending on how the dev made the installer).
The apk is simply the front end (user facing) management layer.
And then toss in the common Linux misunderstanding that's bled over to Android that su stands for super user. It doesn't, it stands for set user, but without arguments (the way most people have seen it) defaults to setting you to the root user.
As a Linux user, it might be just as well to think of the apk as your sudo access assistant, and to think of the grant/deny popup as analogous to confirming access with your password.
If you haven't already, install a good busybox (I prefer this one) -
Check out "BusyBox"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox
And then Terminal Emulator and look around just as you would on Linux.
Your filesystem layout will make more sense one you use the df and mount commands there.
Hope this helps.
PS - Also, a thank you for taking down the pro download.

[5.12.17][g935u][root] stable method for g935u - bqd2 t-mobile

As we have all seen with this latest STOCK G935U [BQD2] Firmware for T-Mobile indeed it runs smooth and personally I have experienced better performance without all those carrier-bloat applications by default. Dating a week ago, I tried to root this build version and for some reason I experienced infinite bootloops after my device boots up. So I did some research as to what system apps could be causing this I still I can't believe that a network-related system application was causing this issue.
I am talking about com.samsung.sprint.chameleon as mentioned by @qwewqa here -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/4-28-t-mobile-935-firmware-t3597866/page10

Go ahead clear data and DISABLE it. After you are done disabling this system app, you are now safe and good to follow through the root method below.
4 - I suggest that you use the root.bat file provided by @Quickvic30 on this thread to root your device

Since I don't see any mention of using the engineering kernel should I assume this method does not work for US models?
So basically you take qwewqa's discovery, make no mention of him, then pass it off as your own. Then copy and paste some steps from other people, and submit it as your work?

As referred in the procedure section. The main and original root method goes to the forum thread linked above. As I briefly specified in the background info section, this is just a quick fix in performance and stability when applying root to this build.

I didn't copy nor plagiarize any information from their respective owners. Credits are given, very briefly detailed information on the steps as to the main reason of this thread is just giving the list and proceed with the order of steps to successfully achieve root. The link that I attached in regards to the conflicting system app that where I noticed the issue with other models.
I didn't look into @qwewqa thread comment regarding this, and I apologize and edited to credit him on this finding.
The debloat list provided is extremely aggresive. It removes the stock gallery, stock calender, lock screen wallpaper, stock contacts, Bluetooth, and all google back up services.
Your list is great for the hardcore folks BUT you have to go back through the lost and re-enable the apps and clear the data then re disable them.

Brian,
Thanks for bringing it all together. I am currently rooted on T-Mobile QC1. I wanted to go to the U firmware wanted a tested way to root first.
Pat
Thank you kindly. Going to try this out right now
gonna give this a try, Any kernel tweak recommendations? how smooth/fast is it or does it lag like a bunch
any fix for the finger print sensor?
Im think the eng is conflicting with a app killing the fingerprint sensor

Hey Pat,
In fact there is a way to root the U Firmware and achieve functionality and administration. All thanks to their devs for their work

As a matter of fact, the root.bat from @Quickvic30 does all the jobs needed. I strongly suggest running his method. No L Speed, no Kernel Adiutor. Just Titanium Backup to freeze/uninstall bloatware.

Yes, I also have the same problem. The fingerprint sensor has stopped working after flashing the Eng Bootloader.

I tried to use this method but my phone won't let me change permissions. It pops up with a message that says "changing permissions was not successful. Please note that some file systems do not allow permission changes." Is there something special I need to do to enable permission changes?
Also I am using root browser to do this.

Try another file browser. Root Explorer is what I have always used.

Glad it worked. I have been using Root Explorer for as long as I have been using & rooting android phones.

I also had that problem too. Just extract the libs and overwrite them in /system/lib and /lib64, then change the permissions to rw-r--r--. Apparently, it only worked after overwriting the files.

[HELP] Features Missing after unlocking bootloader

Well although I planned to unlock bootloader after a few months I decided to grab the opportunity when unlock page started working and with the ultimatum by Huawei about providing unlock codes, but ever since I unlocked and fixed multiple boot loops I noticed few apps and features are now missing such as
HiFi Huawei sounds in Settings is gone
Unable to change or apply themes
smart remote Control is now gone,
Phone no longer stay awake while looking at it
There might be more stuff missing which I haven't noticed
I mean it feels absurd I just unlocked bootloader why are these stuffs missing this makes no sense to me, all I did is installed twrp, installed magisk no modules nothing, in fact, my favorite mods are giving boot loops anyway but that aside I do need the above things back please help out a friend, anyone else faced this ?
I have a theory like Miui had a "region" option and apps changes according to regions set. So does something like this happens in EMUI as well, I don't remember exactly but I believe I set region/language as the UK while completing the setup, if so how can I change it back(PS: I live in India)
or its the side effect of root perhaps?
PHONE: HONOR VIEW 10
Current EMUI ver:8.0
Varient:BKL-09(C675D2)
Current Version of Update:8.0.0.140

Wow well I expected a better response from the community or some response for sure.. Well turns out these all apks were in data partition, so they got removed when phone storage was formatted, makes sense now
Extracted the apks and pushed them myself... Features are back

No idea what kind of issues you had, but none of those vanished after unlocking my bootloader.
I've been able to use themes just like before, the display stays on when I look at it and those Huawei sounds in settings are still there as well. No idea about the remote since I never used it anyway.
So idk what went wrong on your phone but it doesn't look like that's anything "normal"
Help please !
Bro, can you please please please extract upload C675 system.img stock so that I can come back on stock?

I am guessing it as per different variant, perhaps in mine these apk were in the data partition, Microsoft translator was missing as well
I pushed those apks extracting from firmware to the system partition and its back to normal
You are a savior then !
Yes bro, please upload it. It would be a pleasure for me and several others. I'm dying to get that.

I just realized the firmware on firmware finder seems rather incomplete, update.app is just 300 MB or so, no way it contains full system.img
so am gonna have to take twrp backup b ready for 3gb download, anything else u want other than the system?
From LOS to Stock
Thats not a problem bro, have a 50mbps 250gb monthly plan in broadband. Wanted you to know that I am coming from LOS to stock as much as I know it would require only system.img. But if you think anything else would be required, then please upload that too, as I have only the stock recovery and nothing else.
Thanks for your help !

paste it in the twrp folder of the phone and use restore option of twrp

Mate, thank you for this upload. I am also having the same problems(C675). You are a life saver.
1. Could you please elaborate the steps in detail, where to place system.img in twrp folder(In Internal or sd card)?
2. Also what is the version u have uploaded mate(8.0.0.140/8.0.0.151)?
3. Also can you upload ramdisk, kernel, stock recovery also?
4. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
Thank you.
I flashed it bro but no network.
I think I need radio/modem files.
Could you please upload? I'm waiting.

here you go , rest of the partitions
Do the same unzip in PC- Copy all these files inside twrp backup folder, go to twrp and use restore option hopefully it will work
this is 140 update backup I haven't received 151 officially due to unknown reasons, but I had made changes to my system partition so it contains almost all new features and fixes of 151 except the 3D creator cam,
3D creator is in my data partition which i did not backup
Hey, Are you sure taking restore of this one alongwith previous one will do the job ? I guess imei resides in efs partition which I cannot see here. Can you confirm this once please ?
and thanks for your time and effort bro

Hey, could you share how did you manage to extract the apks? I downloaded the firmware using the Firmware Finder and found the HwRemoteController.apk but when I try to install it via adb I get a signature failure.
Mate, thank you for this upload.
1. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
2. How to install the latest update with root?. Is there any solution available?

U need to place them directly in /system/app
Or /data/apps and give permission rw-r--r--
Or try signing the apk it should work I guess if libs are not there

Take your own backup first... Try installing only one partition at time... To be honest this EMUI is very new to me... Dont know y they made so many different partitions
Or maybe it's a kirin's thing... I should have just gone with Op5t like rest of the world... Its just chaos and confusion here
