Talking to dan rosenberg about a root for v20c - LG Thrill 4G

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

I can already feel some ROM developers salivating and waiting for news about this.

Oh yeah, bloody my music crap and that obscenely huge Gullivers travels. The silly ring backs, ugh. I have them hidden on my menu but they are there, taking up memory and space. They never would be missed!

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?

He said it would take a few days he hasent emailed me back yet

Ok thanks for your response. I'm currently using the Rogers v20c on my AT&T LG Thrill in the US..Tampa, Florida to be more precise and would really love to take all the Rogers Bloatware out of this Rom.
Sent from my LG-P925g using xda premium

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

Lol good. It's good to know we have brave devs willing to take on the challenge..not just ranting about how dumb they think the bootloader issue is or how angry they are with it. I would be as voluntary as you if I had the money to risk bricking and replacing my droid x.

It's all good man..I don't think anyone expects anyone to risk bricking their phone if they can't replace it.
Even if you did brick it, just take it back to Big Red. They will replace it without question within 30 days and just call it DOA. More than half of the people at the stores don't care.... Trust me on this one.

Efuse will not brick your phone
Motorola says eFuse will not brick your phone, if an alternate unsighed bootloader is loaded, the phone will reboot into recovery until a signed bootloader is loaded.
engadget.com/2010/07/16/motorola-responds-to-droid-x-bootloader-controversy-says-efuse/
throwing my name in the hat
I plan on picking up the x this weekend...and more than likely sending it back in 30 days either way. I also have insurance that covers just about anything, so i'm not too worried about them turning me away. Feel free to shoot me a PM or i'll follow this thread if anyone wants to test it out!
Good luck dev's!
Well since installing a custom rom will only send you back to recovery, why not root (when possible of course) and install a custom recovery? Might help get past some of the issue...idk just trying to help.
My phone will be here monday, and we better have custom roms by then or else lol
Meh, you guys realize how many phones Milestone users bricked trying to hack it right? It's not so much there's a self destruct thing as there is that the modding you do could potentially screw up the phone because you ARE messing with a bootloader and trying to get it to sign properly...
It's a tricky thing. As a Milestone user watching this board I have to say.... welcome to our world. It's one thing to say that the DROID and Incredible got hacked and what not, but this is something Milestone fans have been struggling with for like 9 months or so. It's not easy and we still haven't killed it yet. Don't come on here with too much faith as this is pretty much the same encryption scheme. I welcome the help, and perhaps one of you guys will figure it out as it is now a joint battle... but don't be surprised if it doesn't work out because none of us are holding that much hope.
The kexec vulnerability has the best chance and it's not by cracking the bootloader.
What is he kexec vulnerability? And also do you think there would any way we can bruteforce the encryption by doing some sort of a [email protected] type of ordeal?

Why cant someone get the original rom just like the Droid? That way it makes it impossible to brick.
I will offer up mine to testing. If in 30 days I will tell them it just died. After that I will spend the insurance and tell them I dropped in a pool I was surveying.
I as well would risk the recovery menu for testing. its worth it

Bootloader progress

Was wondering if there was any news or updates regarding the bootloader. Im thankful for all we have so far, plus im a donator to some projects so I help with what I can. Anyone heard anything or have any good references to follow? And whats up with people going to incredibles over x's? I hope no one is giving up on development for the x.

If anyone is working on the bootloader it would be birdman. But until now all he is talking about is the new Flyx rom he is working on.

It almost makes me wish I wouldve kept my Incredible now that they have custom Roms running but the X is much more fitting and better for me. I felt the same way about the Incredible when I had it, didnt think Root was gonna make it and wasnt sure how long it would take to get custom Roms. I jumped ship because of that and a lil bit in part to bad battery life and soon after they got Root and now have custom Roms running. We just have to be patient as we have and hope that it soon comes. I agree with you and am thankful for what we have and we can play in the sandbox just not with all the toys.
Anyone know if the Unrevoked Team has gotten their hands on a DX yet? If not it might be time for another DX donation thread to give this Team a crack at the bootloader.
According to a post at the android forums, birdman is working on something that has to do with the mbm. It think it was Lexusbrian that gave a little tidbit that birdman might have some news for us in a couple of days from now. So be patient becuase it is being worked on.
Sweet. Well lets hold strong dx'ers, give support and donations, eventually well smash this efuse.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Considering how FAST we got root compared to the Dinc and how the whole "efuse" panic basically provoked folks into wanting a DX just to prove the bootloader can be hijacked, I think we'll have something soon.
Birdman has been shooting out some occasional tweets that suggest that he's working on it, as well as on FlyX. I expect we'll have a significant breakthrough soon (a few weeks, in my estimation.... I'm being conservative here... it could be faster), if not a working bootloader hijacking process.

Apparently the documents and code to do this are out there now. All that needs to be done at this point, is for someone to put it into an Update.zip format.
Apparently it involves some kind of exploit with NVRAND while Flashing a new baseband. I'd say within 2 weeks, our phones will be open.

HELP ME!!!!

I just bought my Samsung Captivate about 3 weeks ago and my friend updated it to froyo 2.2. Loved it nothing wrong with it untill last night. I pressed the unlock button on the side and when i went to slide it to unlock it it would not work. I took the battery out and tried again and it did nothing. I looked it up and i think my best bet is too download odin3 and restore it to stock. I absolutely no nothing about phones. Please help me! I need my phone to help tune my truck.
Thanks, Abel
This goes in the Q & A section, not android development. And to answer your question thoroughly more information is needed about what your running.
Oh Boy where does one begin.........
Sorry. I am new to this. But as far as i know it is a samsung captivate. lol. But now all it does is go to the "AT&T screen and it says world phone" and does nothing else.

Bad thing is i have mac ( and its pissing me off becaus i cant use it. I am going to have to wait for tonight i guess.
Wait, you use a Mac, you know nothing about phones, and you let someone else update your phone to a totally unsupported operating system? I'm not sure if you realize this, but in doing that, you just let your friend void your warranty.
Friend, here is how forums work: you spend 99% of your time reading and if you don't understand something then you ask. As silverslotcar so kindly pointed out, you should start by reading this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989 and all of the other stickies in this Captivate Android Development forum. THEN you let your friend mod your phone so at least you have some idea of what is going on.
Good luck reading the forums!

There is no such thing... only root and no root. This is because Heimdall requires one flash without BLs then you can reflash with BLs, no reason to have two different ones...

First off... the only people working on anything for the ZIO are the cricket users. You won't even be able to flash any kind of rom without a working clockworkmod recovery. I haven't seen any sprint users jumping on that yet... read the forums and learn something so you can port clockworkmod and after you have done that you can start installing from zips and using nandroid to backup and restore.

The only truth I see is that you're acting like a douchebag for no apparent reason. I dont need to restate what I've already said, but I will anyhow. Maybe listen this time..
There are only a handful of sprint users here, and 99% of them are non dev's...
Non devs dont give an S.H. about obtaining source, they are interested in the end-product. So if you want to go rooting for the source, stop being a douche and go do it. Dont rag on others who dont know how to go about obtaining such. Its just bad form and not in the spirit of open development.
So with that said, modify ur attitude and be a human being ffs..
Back on topic: openZIO is working with various org's to get the 2.1 source code made public.
We'll keep you Sprint users posted.

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 ?

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

If the esteem gets an official ICS and the Revo doesn't I will be heated. It's an awesome phone but it is basically the Revo twin and the Revo got eoled the other day...

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

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
