Samsung S6 Active SM-G890A now has a open source Kernel - Galaxy S6 Active

http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=890a

This is the message I recieved confirming they did release it.

Hallelujah.
I'm no programmer but I'll poke around and see what's possible. Not sure what the implications of an open source kernel are.

Before getting root methods... we might need to unlock the boot loader first...

I'd like to think I was the straw that broke the camel's back since I submitted a request for this just two days ago :3 hahaha

Right? ^-^
I mailed them on four different emails mwaha.
Anyways, any update on what this release pertains? :/ If it helps any trying to crack the bootloader.. or did everyone give up? :/

FroyoFlasherApp BETA

Hi everyone. With the new option to unlock nand after root, you may be wanting some roms for the dinc. Now, i am developing an app to flash froyo while nand is unlocked. I will be needing testers within the next couple of days for this new app. Ill keep you posted on progress.
I would be interested, keep me posted.

Uhhh...
Our tool does NOT unlock NAND. It unlocks it sufficiently long for us to flash clockworkmod. That's it. It is unsafe to leave it unlocked for longer at the moment because of the way we do it, and the tool functions as a single unit--if any one part of it doesn't work, NAND is not necssarily even unlocked!
After the reflasher finishes running, NAND is locked again.
Now... there will be ROMs soon, and there will be Froyo. There will even be unlocked NAND (that's one of our next projects).
Maybe this guy can put together froyo, but based on what he's said so far... I wouldn't expect it.
So you started another thread about a Froyo "rom"... this should be interesting! I don't think you need to develop an "app" to do this, you just need to cook a rom up... But you should probably wait until you have a ROM before you create a thread.
This should be interesting since your last thread got locked. I hope you succeed but judging by your previous responses I doubt it.

Really shouldn't be posting a thread building hype on a ROM that doesn't exist, especially without any kind of street cred, and on an account that's only a month or two old- Given what happened to your last thread (you know, closed down by Fallen Spartan), you really should think twice before throwing up another one that's darn near identical...
Would gladly test it for u. PM me and i shall do the testing for u

I wouldn't run anything this guy puts out if I were you.
No heavensblade. This is a rom. The old method from tyeold thread was a load of crock. I am the first one to say that the old method was a fricken disaster, but this is a fully functiional rom using nand access. It is totally different fromthe old way. It is reliable

[Q] When kernel will be cracked?

Do you know?
Probably never.
Just look which great success the devs got even without custom kernel.
Oh and btw: There are to less devs which try to help bypassing it for X8.
what is kernel ?

Not kernel, kernel is not cracked, it is modified, if you're talking about the bootloader, well that's an different story, Blagus and some more devs, (i cant really remember them) are trying to bypass it and put our own custom kernels on the phone, but unfortunately they don't have very much sucess, they did some progress, but they still have some things to do, like fix the miniloader and compile the new replacement kernel...No one really knows WHEN, cuz it's not like, hey i'll be done in 1 week, 1 year etc.. you can't know, one day you're working on it and bang, sucess...so There isn't really an ETA
im waiting that bang
we need nat support !!
whoever said there are no stupid questions... should take a look at this thread, he'll change his mind.
Let's hope that SE unlocks their bootloader, like HTC, Samsung and Motorola, but judging their actions about android updates, i doubt it.
i dunno,but i hope soon !

Petition Xiaomi to relase Mi3 source code.

Guys rather than whining about Xiaomi not releasing the kernel source code Why not we force them to release it.
We can sign in for this petition and get the kernel source codes of the device we purchased
We totally need 500 supporters. Already there are 354 supporters
Please help and fight for your kernel source rather than begging them :highfive::fingers-crossed:

Soon?? Dude its been a long time since mi3 was released...kernel sources should be released with the release of phone.
I thought at least after releasing mi4 they might release. But again he told it will be released. Most probably in fall that's a log time
True...
They sud release it right away...
either fix the existing bug on miui ( push notification ) or release kernel so that we can get on with cynogenmod ...

You guys also need to understand that the petition won't do any good as no one can enforce it as the company is safe behind China's laws.
The only way you will make a difference is maybe a petition to stop buying their devices until they start following the gpl like everyone else.

@thejoker has got the main point.
The next best phone at 220$ is moto g which dropped 20$ after mi 3 release.
Except that the only choice is Asus zenfone
The cheapest SD 800 phone is nexus 5. Which still costs almost 500$
A used one costs 400$
This is the only device we can get and let's see what happens. It takes a few secs for sign up.
What's there to loose?

That's a useless try you're doing, petition won't help you in any way, they'll release Mi3's source code when they'll feel to do so
Mi2/Mi2s got their code released few months after when their next flagship Mi3 got released all we can do is being patient.

And Hugo himself said in an Interview that source code will be released by the end of this year

That's why we made this forum. So the users could get together and help change them. They will have to change a few things before they can think about releasing the device in many parts of the world. At first HTC and Samsung were doing the same thing. The users rallied and now they release it right away.
If they don't change then this forum will be a failure and be removed.

Yes. Without XDA there were no devs ready to even make a unofficial ports.
Only thanks to it there are 3 Roms ....
.see we have nothing to loose to try
But after meeting them yesterday and after explanation came to know that Xiaomi looses most of its users to aosp and the only profits they get from cloud and other software services will be gone.
Once again xiaomi is not a hardware oriented company like Samsung etc

It doesn't matter if they are or not. They are required by law to release it upon device release.
No big surprise they lose most to aosp not a lot of trust for a closed sourced distro that one day had nothing and then the next had enough capital to start a company. Makes me wonder if other rumors are true.

bootloader locked bs....

I think this is bs. No roms,no nothing for this damn phone still. Its been months and no progress. I am not a developer and yes i complaining. Nobody can say that the bootloader is locked down or its because of kitkat... look at the g2 the g3 its insane with how much roms there is. I dont believe anything or anyone saying the bootloader is locked....A BUNCH OF BS!!!. I am going to look into developing for this phone because we are at a standstill for far too long. Gonna install linux on my computer when i have free time and atart putting in work.

Feel exactly the same.
This phone is like a king among phones, but a king who is in exile
Even with stock this phone is simply outstanding and I'm sure LG will update it to lollipop
But it needs lots of developer love for sure
I'm also learning how to develop, just for the love of this device

Not by any means a developer, but I'm pretty tech savvy and know a few languages, so if i can help in any way let me know. I want to get this ball rolling!
We are gonna need some help from mattwheat also. Busy this weekend but will check out some things soon....
Guys the bootloader is definitely locked down tighter than sh#!. But there is a work around. I.e. "BUMP"
With the Flex 2 now out I figured all hope WS gone for this device. If I knew more or had the time to learn like I used to have we would be rockin some AOKP, RESERECTION, OR some CM-12 based ROM.
I used to be on night shift for years and had all the time in the world after work (hence my 3am and 4am post). But I've left that company to start a new job that is now day shift. Which allows me more time with my son. But cuts into the amount of time I used to have. But I wouldn't change it for the world. But I will help anytime I can. But I think by summer I may move to either the Nexus 6 or the Flex 2 <--- only if the boot loader is unlockable like the LG G3 is.
It is a shame about the boot loader. Gave the flex to my daughter and moved on to the
Nexus 6 and have no regrets.

(No progress yet)Root dev for Galaxy S9 Plus SM-G965U (Snapdragon)

Do not ask for an ETA
Once the mods start getting onto people for asking, I'll take my dev work off site. I don't want to upset mods and admin over people being impatient.
I've been looking and root isn't available yet for the Snapdragon version. I've created root access for a few devices so far, be it years ago. I want root, so I've decided to start dev work on my own. Can't say how long it will take, or if I will be able to, but anyone that is willing to test or help, feel free to comment and say so, since help would be greatly appreciated. Testers are needed.
First off though, what advancements have been made so far? Several posts I've seen have dead links to data, so to start, I'll need to know what's been done already. No need to reproduce failed outcomes.

One guy flashed a combination version of the firmware and got the OEM unlock toggle to show on a SM-G960U. It switched on and off but I am not sure if it actually unlocked the bootloader or not. There is a TWRP already ported to the Snapdragon version as well, although only for the Chinese and Hong Kong version, it should work on our device if you can get the bootloader unlocked first. I have been scouring online and in the forums since the phone came out and that's all I nave found thus far. Im sure you already know these things, but I figured I would say it just in case you weren't aware. Hope you get it figured out! Good luck! ?
The only development I've heard of is one user claiming he got a diagnostic boot with SElinux permissive. (In the S9 root dev forum/thread) I also have a source who is NOT trying to be identified publicly because he works for google, but he informed me that "the android O build for SAMSUNG DEVICES, was developed with special instructions in it to automatically kick a KERNEL PANIC , if ANY app NOT on some internal White List attempts to access, modify, or send SU commands through any NOT LISTED app with those permissions granted already." ... now I'm not an Android level programmer, but I'm an old Linux dev/ penetration systems tester (lol) and from what I am gathering is that the patches or whatever that Samsung added to the O.S. also included an encrypted or hidden white list, which he says is VERY small, (as in number of items actually in the list) , but even he said they do not have any access nor knowledge of where they stored this. He did tell me that they delivered an incomplete or infant code for Samsung Snapdragon Model Note 8,9 and s8,9, and it was so crude that not only would it not compile because of missing crap Samsung deliberately did not supply them with... but he said that it was NOT lockable in that state, so Samsung either inserted their own locked kernel and whatever to create this B.S. broke down version of Android that is Root crippled. BUT the only clue he could give me was that "On no level can an E-fuse provide an unbreakable chain of trust, and that if an extreme modded were to actually break down the system board of an S9, they could in theory remove or add some sort of device that would bypass the Qualcomm Secure boot completely!" ... now this ain't a best friend or nothing so truthfully I'm surprised I got this much from him... but I've known who he was and that hes worked for Google nearly 12 years as a developer and software engineer. So I dont know if any of that info helps... but my contribution is that I can get my device (s9+ from Sprint USA Sm-g965U) replaced with little to no hassle, so I'm 100% willing to do any tests u need, providing that you give me at least a basic level of instruction, as to each set of commands or package u want me to flash. I'm pretty android savvy considering it's just a linux derivative... and I know Samsung 100% .. I've had every S - galaxy since day 1 . BUT throwing blind commands at my device that I have 0 understanding of their impact, makes me feel like a squirrel running across the freeway during rush hour! Plz Do me a favor and shoot me a private message and I'll give you my cell number and email so u can reach me quicker when you have something u need tested! Now please people don't berate me if something he said to me was not correct or you have different data to disprove what he said. I literally took notes by hand and had him confirm them, so I'm just the messenger/informant and u gotta realize that as a google employee, he #1 is partially not knowledgeable of ways to exploit the O.S. which is what the hackers come into play for. And make the developers work **** tons harder to FIX the hole the ****ed up in the 1st place! ? Lol... and #2. I did ask about the possibility of a $$$$ number he would take in order to provide an actual Eng-boot like that of the S8, and he said that "Those are developed by each individual corporation after they are provided the build source code", and that "google has no interest in possessing or archiving any such file because the O.S. does not need it to provide a developers version of the O.S., which is as far as Google goes in providing a new system to the companies.... so for something like that, reach out to one of the underpaid factories full of workers and I'm sure they would happily give you what you want for much cheaper than you imagine!" Ok that was very long winded but I wanted to cover all I could because I prob wont check this thread anymore.... plz PM me bro so I can get you my info ... and let's put this Flashing Guinea Pig (me) to work in getting this ***** at least hack rooted or maybe full!!!
Hello, i've just finished reading all above and from what I've read I can tell that not all hopes are lost as well I'm offering my help to be a (TESTER) for any attempts you wanna try, however, please note that I'm NO DEV just a user who would like to his phone rooted ASAP that's all, so please explain the commands that you would give me and the steps. plz PM me so I can get you my contact info
It ain't happening with the known exploits.
Ok, so far I have a few routes I plan to take that have worked on other devices. Working on the first, but not at the moment. The rude comment compelled me to post my own. Devs don't follow old ways of doing things so get that out of your head if you want to think forward, not backwards. I have found what could be an exploit in the rom itself that "might" be the starting point to get root access. This is NOT an ETA but hopefully we can start testing in the next few weeks.
I'll say it now, don't get overly excited a possible exploit has been found. I make no guarantee on it being THE exploit needed. Just be patient, and if you have insight on a way to attack this or another possible exploit, do say so.
If anyone knows of the bootloader partition already having been copied, post a link. I share mine at the moment so I don't always have it around, so any of the bootloader data would help greatly.

Myself and a handful of other people involved in us snapdragon s8/s8+/n8+ took a brief crack at it a little while ago to no avail. I don't want to go into too many details on here as 1) Samsung is watching surely and 2) the contents from the peanut gallery get old quick but here are the cliff notes. Feel free to pm me here or on telegram for more details. (Backstory on me, I created samfail which was the first/only n8 root method and the second for the s8/s8+ and the only published one beyond bootloader v1.
- samfail is 100% patched. No known way to modify system
- you can't mix combo boot with stock images anymore. Samsung got wise to that. Figured out how to track it if we can force write a system image
- there is a ton of new system level security because they had to move out of the boot image due to treble. Probably the first big nail in the coffin I'm.
- don't waste your time on the oem unlock toggle in the combo/factory rom. No it doesn't unlock the bootloader. The us snapdragons don't respect it's value outside of turning off frp, but that was with the s8 idk if it is still true on the s9.
- the other poster is right about the anti root thing. It's in the open source kernel code. If anything being exexuted under uid 0 matches a list of common/known root mods/not stuff that is supposed to be there, instant kernel panic. Things like "binary is called BusyBox" are on that list.
This was the point I gave up. Partially because I don't have the device so testing is extremely difficult (I wised up this year and purchased a intl. Snapdragon sm-g9650 which has full oem unlock just like the exy).
In sure there's things in forgetting right now and again, being too transparent here results in root method bring patched faster, hit me up if you want more brain dump

Although I have seen a lot worse on these threads, his comment was pretty negative, which is what we do not need in this thread. I wish people would just keep their thoughts to themselves if they have nothing to add to the discussion. I also will test so let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
i also have a g965u and have been trying various mwthods to no avail at this point.. we need new exploits to be found.. all the obvious stuff will not work
It is because of this is why I will never buy another Galaxy phone. I need root.

You cannot buy Exynos from a carrier. You have to buy directly from Samsung for that. I know because I requested a Exynos variant. Sprint said they couldn't (or wouldn't) give me one.
edit: nvm not worth it.
