Whatever you do don't update to next security patch update!!! - Sprint LG G4

So I'm pretty sure everybody knows about dirty cows vulnerability. Now we have to wait till someone exploits our G4 hopefully before sprint rolls out the next Android kernel security patch. Some phones are already receiving these updates but not us. Probably not for another month or so. Stay tuned for the dirty cows root and write to read only files.

YES YES YES PLEASE! I hope so. I'm just worried that the developer who made mallowmushroom decided to move on to another phone - which dev could take his place and be our hero to exploit this for rooting the phone?

You'll have to wait quite a bit for that, many of us(or probably all of us) are yet to receive the update including the EYE experience. And previous leaks suggest the update to come in the second half of 2015
I get a best hope for march of april and we will not have the eye experience.

How to root Pixel / XL on 7.1?

I'm wondering what the process for the Pixel devices is, and if anyone has had any success with existing tools/SuperSU.
It's running 7.1 if that's relevant.

I guess I have to wait for custom recoveries that support this phone then? I can't see a build for TWRP that supports sailfish.

You'll first need to unlock the bootloader and then wait for chainfire's magic. It is possible to root through fastboot also so there is a good chance that you'll get root before a custom recovery.
Due to seamless updates, things have changed a bit so it'll take some time to be figured out

Buy it directly from Google and the bootloader won't be locked, only if you buy it through a carrier like Verizon will the bootloader be locked

This is the first device with Android's new partition layout. Having looked at the firmwares and at running devices (remotely), I have some ideas on how to do it.
However, it will be a while before I have SuperSU fixed up. The changes will be quite a bit of work and testing, and doing so remotely will make that take significantly longer. So I'm just going to wait for my own device, but as they aren't available in my country, it has to be shipped from another country and go through customs. I don't expect my device to arrive for another week or two.
In the meantime, it's always possible someone else releases root for it.
I saw @jcase and @Dees_Troy have been playing with TWRP, to me it seems wholly possible to fix that up (mostly) as well. But even if TWRP is released tomorrow, using the existing SuperSU ZIP will not work on it, due to all the breaking changes in Android 7.1.
Will be interesting if you can do it CF... Looking forward to release - Ill send a donation your way when done

If your intent was truly altruistic, you wouldn't feel the "burden" of stating it publicly. So no, it doesn't matter.

Appreciate all you do Chainfire, seriously. Can't wait for you to work your magic
Ah its so funny to what people write after all these years of people spending their own time to work out back doors and exploits to enable root / Xposed / Custom bootloaders / Kernels / Recoveries.
People can't just wait and see and if the devs ask for help or testers just be part of it, throwing a few dollars at them is not going to push things forward . . . let them do what they want to do its their project / baby and it will happen when it does.
Support the devs after the fact dont try and attempt to influence them into it with beer money.
Some of y'all are ridiculous! The guy made a harmless statement and didn't mean anything negative by it. And what do all of the analytical geekers do? Just that... Analyze his comment to the bone and find all sorts of self-serving intent within it. Blows my mind...

Oh shut up. What a stupid thing to say. People are excited about dev work, and if they suggest a donation, what do you care? Why is it any of your business? If the dev has a problem with people providing positive feedback and offering donations, they will make it known.

Hey I've unlocked my bootloader, but with the different partition layout and file based encryption (assuming this device uses that), is there any chance I'll have to erase my data and start over for root?
Because I got the 128GB model and I'm ready to start filling up with apps and keep a big portion of my Google Play music library to save on data and everything but I don't want to do it if there's a real possibility I'll have to erase everything if to achieve root.
I guess it is possible to use a custom recovery (once they come out) to backup, but that'll be a huge backup if I start keeping all my music to the device.

What ever but tour the same guys who's going to be asking for OTAs and asking devs to do this that and the other as fast as humanly possible.
If you want it that bad do it your self or sit and wait like a good little child.
No dev is going to rush something because of some people in a forum get a grip, like I said it's their time and it will be ready when it's ready.
You might think I'm going off on one but read the rules page for Christ's sakes.

The chance you'll have to erase is always present when rooting. Even when your device is fully prepared something may go wrong. At least you have already unlocked your bootloader, which reduces that chance.
File-based encryption will probably not be a reason to for wiping, though. It works fine in the dev version of SuperSU with Android 7.0 on a 5X.

SO I HAVE TO PUT THIS IN NOW DO NOT DOWNGRADE IF URE ABOVE ZVA YOU WILL HARD BRICK THERE ARE NEW G4 USERS AND PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO DG ON ZVB ZVC ZVD OR ZVE IS A BIG NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED MANY TIMES........................................................................................
twrp exploit found waiting on official release. this is a ls991 sprint varient. exploit may and should work on all devices.
i am one of orig alpha testers and great thanks to the man it should hopefully be fully working and ready for mass production soon
if u want to check progress look and thank here but please guys for the love of it no spamming the man he and his time are a great addition to the lg community and myself and everyone here can and should respect that remeber no eta or will u's politly ask and have a great day xda
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/locked-twrpinfish-locked-g4-devices-t3573048 new link
prequisites so far
must be rooted means zv6 or lower zva or zv9 can be downgraded to zv6 one of the 2 not sure
and kernel must be set to permissive
on a lighter note i hate to rub it in but i got the first sprint g4 with twrp on it
no flashing yet but did make backups
come one every one wake up lol this is what weve been waitin for
so ive been up since like 2 or 3 am and steadfasterx was kind enough to take the time do a good team viewer made a few mods
and technicly released a second alpha or first beta whichever twrp now persists through reboots and is permantly on my device
viper 4 android offic flashed with twrp beta for locked bls
You know im not one to complain very much. But i am quite upset with the sprint g4 community. I risk my device for the sake of the fun. And not even one thanks. 76 views and nothing. Did any of you ever think that now that this has happen mm will be next mm roms prerooted for twrp.
I make post after post to keep theis device alive and keep people updated. But nothing from the community. Im not asking for money or a place to stay. Just a simple thanks.
3 days after purchasing my device. I tear it apart to do a thermal paste mod which has clearly worked so far. Somethin like 2400 views. And i think 1 thanks
Just proves how demanding the world is this day in age but dont expect to help in return.
Again a thanks goes a long way
And so every one knows the beta 3 has been released went from a alpha to beta 3 in one day. Thats fricking amazing
This is great news, hope it leads to more.

I am orig lg ls991 tester and prob the only sprint tester. And i can tell u other than flashing modified kernels and recovs rite now just cause it adds to a secure boot error but upon twrp restore of orig boot parts all is good
This will be changing soon with efiboot. But for now this is wonderful
This is great news especially after the past...What was it? Three developers claiming to have unlocked the bootloader? If only I was a Dev then I could rack my brain and try to figure out how to beat anti-rollback to get back to lollipop.

The bootloader is still locked. This method hijacks the ramdisk and installs twrp somwhere else. Still have stock recovery too. Which i guess is cool never had 2 recovs at same time before
Like i said earlier no go on flashing anything modified on boot and recov partitions. Still secure boot errors. I wish i had a mm stock kernel zvd id see if i could flash and then restore zv6 twrp.
Has worked in past.
Either way man gets a prize. Hes is working on booting efidroid to multi boot which leaves to install anything ontop of orig kernal unmodified. So still wip but opens the door for rr cm anything through efidroid and dual boot.
Just want to say thanks to the community for there hard work it's very much appreciated. Also I had a question, I have a lg g4 sprint version I'm on zvb mellow mallow, can it be downgraded for me to install the hack?

Unfort no. Zva and lower. Untill we find a way to beat qfusing. Which 1 day ofcoarse. No avail yet.
I might try this hex edit software and see if i can modify the antirollback qfuse. Either get all firms to say same as zvb c d or e. Dont get hhopes up yet.
But hopfully got a few theories. Ima start with zv5. Cause im not getting stuck if fail on zvb or higher
Wow this is really great news for ZV6 users! Hopefully the qfuse on the LS991 isn't un-exploitable like KNOX or something... It would be amazing if Octoplus box could actually do something about the horrible anti-rollback. Thanks for the great news!

Well i ordered one a week ago. Ima find out. Some claims say it can with jtag. Ive been reading loads of hex edits seeing if i can edit a zv5 boot image to think its got a zv6 qfuse. But no luck yet. Ive been sick all week so far and runnin on about 7 or 8 hours of sleep since monday. So im pretty out of it. Lol.
Aint no smoke or no drink compare to sleep deprivation i thought i was seeing stuff last night. Which i know is possible. Ive been catchin a hour here and there. Everyones been passin around the flu and of coarse im always the last to catch it.
With twrp. Just downgrading boot image to zv5 isnt enough. Im not attempting a higher boot image yet. Im not getting stuck on a unrootable firmware.
4th test release released today with updated twrp version rc1 op thinks 1 more test realease before going public
Hate to be THAT guy, but those of us on ZVB are screwed anyway, so what's the point? I mean, If you Wanna spend 150+ dollars USD, you can unlock the bootloader on these as far up as ZVA, with a GCProKey. Proof of bootloader unlock support./

[BOUNTY] Root - let's see if root possible!

I know this is early days given the device is still a couple of days away from being officially released, however so far root is not looking good for the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.
As we know the complexities of Huawei not releasing bootloader unlock codes has made things difficult, but I'm told by no means impossible. Sites like Funky Huawei claim to be able to provide bootloader unlock codes - but at a cost. We also potentially have the barrier of the OEM unlock option being greyed out which may make us fall at the first hurdle.
Therefore the way I see things we need:
- to be able to select OEM unlocking in the developer options (either after the 26th October we may be able to, or this may require some clever developer to provide a workaround...)
- to be able to unlock our bootloaders
- Potentially for twrp to be made available for our device, which would hopefully open us to the option of custom roms and perhaps flashing firmware updates etc.
- and last but not least, for root with Magisk (ideally this root method due to the great modules that it has!)
It would be AMAZING if we can root and if custom roms started being made for this phone, in time of course, given it has not been fully released yet. But regardless I wished to open this thread and perhaps we could start to pledge money to entice a dev to work on this for us.
I'll kick this off and would pledge £30 for TWRP and Magisk root working on this phone. I'm not sure how this bounty thing normally works and so if forum moderators have anything issues with this just let me know!
If you are serious about a pledge then post here and I'll update this thread.
If you're a dev then let me know how these things work!
Cheers
UPDATE:
Guys, it really isn't looking good. See attached screenshot of response from Huawei regarding the bootloader unlocking and the OEM Unlock option being greyed out in developer settings. As far as I understand it, that option is crucial and seems Huawei won;t even be letting that be an option, let alone provide unlock codes.
I have just had to return my Mate 20 Pro due tue screen uniformity issues and to be honest I won't be getting a replacement (I don't think).
It saddens me, but if anyone wishes to take over this thread/bounty just feel free to copy the pledges posted here and perhaps start a new thread.

Sorry, can't. I can say that it's not something that just anyone can do.

With a root shell, based on it's capability, it is possible to install Magisk with it. I'll have to see how it ends up to be before I can give a definite answer how I can achieve it.

Any link to MR for October 2020 (00WW_5_16A)? Full OTA?

Since my question is always 'overposted', I just ask in this new thread only this question and please nothing else but the answer to it:
Looking the the link to the latest MR full OTA release MR for October 2020 (00WW_5_16A).
There is a link on the telegram group but it lists the full ota as a K release which after updating to it brings only SP4 and not the MR as listed on Nokia site.
Thank you in advance

It's the true way to ask your such kind of question in a new thread.
5.16A looks like to still be in release progress. Not everybody has recieved it (including me). I don't think we are going to have full OTA file (the last one is 5.150). So the only way to have this build will be through over the air (partial OTA update files can't be sideloaded). And K is equivalent to G-SP04.
I know, that is why I asked it. Duh. And if you did not get it, go to telegram site and just download it. So back to my question here, if anybody will have it, kindly post a link. Thank you.
Hi @theviking33,
I don't know if this is exactly what you want, as I don't think it's the "full" image, just the OTA update, but this is the OTA V5.16A which my global Nokia 8 TA-1012 was just updated to, link captured by bug report: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/893b8fb3b0f02af9f16b519bdbaabdbe7e5d7fcd.zip
Feel free to share to the telegram OTA group, etc. As the final MR I hope this can be the future basis for developing stable ROMs, on which I see there has been some good progress!
Now, you can do me a favour - please tell me what's changed between this and the previous version, which for me was 5.15G? This could help us understand why not all phones received this MR, which could also help with ROM development.
Cheers
Thanks @madb1lly, it sideloaded fine on my TA-2012. I'll let you know if I notice any differences but I'm not using my Nokia 8 much, just wanted to get that final MR.
Hi @madb1lly , any news on the 00WW_5_16A update experience? I'm having problems with strong interfering noises on the other end of most phone calls. It only happens on longer conversations after talking more then 30 min. Do not know how to find the source of this problem. Tried a new SIM card, emptied cache on phone app storage, and nothing helps. Everything else is great and happy with my Nokia 8. Was hoping this last security patch could maybe solve the problem. Anybody have similar problems??
Can we pin this thread to the top please?
