Root of all EVIL - LG Revolution

Just read this article and it's quite interesting and scary
Hope some of our devs can find and remove this CIQ app
Better yet hope Verizon didn't install it

What happened to AXURA?

I logged in and i cant find the thread anymore, he said there was drama but i couldnt read about it. What happened?
1. Throw hissy fit
2. Take down ROM
3. ?????
4. Profit!

one word " Greed"
A WHOLE LOT of drama. Check out the now-deceased Axura thread in the Vibrant development forum (it's still up, or just search axura) if you really want the whole story. Not worth your time...
wow man, thats sad. I feel like taking it off now.
As far as i am concerned axura is alive and well! With cog kernel axura is blazing fast in every aspect! But, yeah my one year old nephew is more mature than what went down yesterday...

Hey i know of all the dram that has gone down. I have axura on my cappy and i would like to install a cam fix that uses the lock button as the shutter its in a .apk how to i go about installing it? will it mess up the rom? if some one could help that would be great.
thanks

Um.. I would def ask in the Auxara dev post in the Dev forums.
But you could get the *.apk to install by either replacing it where ever goes using ADB, or Root Explorer.

[Q] Honeycomb on the Hero

Since the G1 and the Mytouch 3G both got Honeycomb roms is it possible that we can port it to the Hero as well considering that the Hero and those other two phones have somewhat close specs?

I wasn't trying to trash you, just making a point that people need to learn how to search. While I admit 3.0 seems interesting, so does miui, sense 2.2, sense 2.3, AOSP 2.3, windows, palm, meego, etc. I like the stuff the dev's do for us, I just personally don't feel the need or see the benefit of posting new threads with this stuff. I figure if a dev wants to go for it, they will, and if they do, I'll try it, otherwise I just like what I can already get from their hard work, and I donate for that stuff. Just my opinion, no offense. And as for the link loop, lol, you will notice I did sorta go off on one of the OTHER threads started after yours.
Dev's are not just gonna feel like doing it unless they now ppl are interested. Someone in the G1 forum thought why not and posted a thread to see if someone would start it and they next day or so the had Honeycomb.
Well... I'm a total noob, but I am working on getting it ported over to the Hero cdma .. Will keep things posted.. GB rocks on the hero though.. so might just have to wait for 'ice cream's' release as it is a mix of GB n HC...

Read the forums. By the way, this should have been posted in the "General" section.
Well, a lot seems to be stemming from not having 2.3 yet. Once GB is released for the Revo, I would expect to see a land slide of ROMs and the like come down the pipe. Another problem is, as stated by someone else in another thread, that there are a ton of Android phones out now and this one is still very new. I'm holding out; with the great work already put into this phone, only even better things are surely to come.
Unfortunately, once 2.3 is released for the Revo, the Revo2 will be close with 2.3 as the default. Hopefully the devs don't jump to the 2 instead...

Both of you: I asked around a lot last week and I was told to go to a Corporate store because they are the only ones who can get into that part of the database and edit it. Apparently it costs some money, idk how much.
Thanks for the replys so far, but I have done all of the above as in so far as to go to the corp store and dial 611 and 228 infront of them, and hello hello hello lol played and nope will not add the esn from the phone in person or at the dealers(any corp or private). The only guy I found here where I live wants 90 bucks to add the esn :{ any other ideas I have a eris running fully flashed and loaded but its not doing it for me any more. Ok thanks for any ideas.

Well I suggest that you keep looking on craigslist or something because that seems like your only option now... or just save up an buy the LG Esteem... $350 but well worth it... epic phone. Good luck man :/
Hi AtmosFEAR I could get one of the esteem but I just looked here real quick and I didn't even see a sub-forum for them :{ whats up with that ? I went into the corp store again tonight and I got someone who said if the phone is flashed they could do it so dial 611 and they here metro so he takes the phone and goes to scan the esn and nope. Not flashed by Houdini so no work. Now can I go and buy that program and flash them my self and will it just add the esn for me into metros database or ? Because I would like to flash the phones also for cheaper then the guy here and make money my self :}. Ok any insite thanks for help

I have the lg revolution which is basically the esteem twin. There is dec work on the esteem can't tell you exactly how much though. I know they have cwm and at least themes. Idk about a rom though I believe someone is working on cm7. I will ask around irc tonight and let you know.

Like he said just get the Esteem, it's worth it and xda will soon, along with other forums & developers have a CM7 Rom for it soon enough. It's also supposed to get Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) so it's a good bet, I'll be getting mine this weekend

well I checked it out and looks like a nice phone. I will be getting it in a week or less :} but untill then i would love to use the og droid for a while as the eris I have is just a slow beast :} and they added that esn at the corp store for 10 bucks ?? i don't get it lol
Now also does the esteem have root and all yet or what can we do with the phone out of the box as far as modding to to make it mine :}
Thanks guys
O just got done taling with my buddy in the revo irc (link in sig if you wanna talk to him)
IRC Chat Log said:
Haro|Prime> O haha. I'm in the app can't see dates. Also, spc how much dec work does the esteem have? Do you know? I know you are making a theme for them and they have cwm but that's about it.
<Haro|Prime> Dev *
<spc_hicks09_> mt just put out a rom for them, Gingersteem. they have 2 kernels, one that can oc to 1700 then ours (their version) that can oc to 1500. someone else made the one that can oc to 1700
<spc_hicks09_> i think that's about it
<Haro|Prime> OK thanks. Guy in the DROID forums is trying to get the DROID on metro and someone entwined the esteem. I told him I would get dev info since I guess they don't have a forum yet
<spc_hicks09_> oh ok, yeah they got about as much going on as we do lol

Made every other line red so it is easier to read.
Like I said ^^^^up there. Just come on over to the Revo IRC and you can talk to someone more knowledgable then me. mt is mtmichaelson and he is in there but not talking at the moment idk if he will be on at all tonight but he is on a lot so you might get a chance to talk to him about the ROM and kernels and such. Hope I helped
Thanks again and i will hop on the irc a little later night time soon here. and maybe i will sell the droid and the eris and get the esteem sooner but i would have to just flash the prl for verizon back and sell the eris to some one for what flashed to metro already and i can hook them up with mms and the net with it. i just dont know how much the 2 would be worth

Depends on who you ask. Personally I will never get rid of my og droid I adore that phone. It popped my android/smart phone cherry and is just a brick of a device. Just will not die. I have dropped/thrown that phone so many times and it just comes back for more lol

Talking to dan rosenberg about a root for v20c

ive emailed Dan and i have a good feeling he'll try to help
ill keep you guys up to date here about what he has to say about it.
hi dan i understand that you injoy rooting devices that seem impossible to root were having some big probs over at xdadevelopment getting the lg thrill (p925g) on 2.3.5 gingerbread the v20c for rogers rooted. Weve have tryed all knowing exploits and they all seem to be patched if you could have a look into this for use that would be so awsome. Im sure your a very busy guy so if you cant get around to it dont worry about it im sure some thing will come up eventully thx
-dustin
Could you try the LG Spectrum exploit I published yesterday and let me know if it works?
http://vulnfactory.org/blog
-Dan
thx for replying so fast i just tryed the LG Spectrum exploit and i think its a no go. I get all directory not found and permission denied but then at the end it say exploit complete but i dont get a su app
ok so i tryed root checker app and it says i dont have root access so i guess it didn't work.
Dustin
woohoo so i teamviewed with dan today so he could have a look at my phone and hears the deal
Thanks, I've got all I need for now.
So here's the deal. This device isn't vulnerable to any of the
LG-specific vulns I've stored up. BUT, there is a whole lot of
exposed attack surface (as in, things that I can play with that are
likely to be broken). I've taken a bunch of notes so I can do some
work on my own time. I'll follow up in the next couple days, and I'd
expect it won't be too tough to root this thing. But as I said, I'm
on vacation, so it's going to happen at a...leisurely pace.
-Dan
Thanks for contacting him!
He is our best hope at the moment, and his feedback is encouraging.
ya i'm so exited about this now
This is awesome!! Now the Thrill can get some custom roms built!!
Sounds good! Can't wait to see this happen - I don't have a tonne of root apps... But its my damn phone

What's the difference between that baseband and the european v21a? If the v21a works then why not use it?
Alot of ppl have ghost call issues and missed sms's with 21a
thank goodness for google+ or i never would have found this guy!!!
Ya thats for sure i knew about him i just never thought that he took requests for roots or liked the challenge of rooting a device that is hard to root. So i took a chance and reached out to him and im so glad i did. Ill be busy with my psp vita tell we get a root so at lest ill have some thing to mess around with tell then.
Let's wait...
What's the progress so far?

Ya as soon as he gets back to me ill be posting on the first page of this thread
Small request from dan....
Would you be able to do me a big favor? I just need the output of the following ADB command:
adb shell ls -l /dev
Also, the build string would be useful, so maybe just the full output of the following?
adb shell getprop
Thanks, Dan
...and these outputs need to be from your device already running the rogers update
