Database Develop

AT&T S5 Devs, do we have any?

Really curious to see if we have any Devs working on the AT&T S5 yet? If so, when do you all think we can expect to start seeing some stuff in the development threads? Obviously BL needs unlocking, if possible. Do we know of anyone working on this?
Thanks Guys!!!

Wow, you haven't read this forum much before posting, have you.
No root yet = no development yet.

I am aware there is no root. If your insinuating that there is some other thread on the subject, I am fairly certain there is not. If you mean something different entirely then would you please elaborate?

My S5 is coming in today. Locked boot loader means no development ever except for maybe some safe strap stuff much later down the road which is just rehash of stock roms. No AOSP or CM.

I personally don't really care about roms, as I like the new Touchwiz and don't want to lose some of its nice features. I would like to have root, though. Hopefully someone finds a way for that to happen soon.

Edited OP to clarify on some confusion about exactly what I was asking.

Yes indeed. I just want some debloat and maybe a cusom kernel for minor performance tweaks.

Not available for ATT version of the phone, I hope it will sometime soon, not having root sucks.

Chainfire needs to the stock recovery to build root for the device, basically auto root by chainfire modifies stock recovery temporarily, flashes su then flashes back stock firmware through odin.

You can't pull recovery without root on your device, the only thing we ATT users can do is wait for Samsung to post the firmware which they havent, SM-G900A is the ATT model number, Tmo and Sprint are already up so they already have root.

keep refreshing and hope it gets posted soon lol.

hmm

Keep in mind guys that if the ATT BL is locked chances are CF Root will fail to flash or boot even if CF builds one for ATT...also if this happens knox warranty is tripped leaving you without warranty coverage and no root...likely a new KK exploit will have to be found...hope I'm wrong about the BL as I'd like to get rid of bloat before handing the phone off to GF..

Wow this iB4STiD person has some serious thanks racked up!!! Hey iB4STiD, are you going to be working on stuff for the S5?

You better hope he is. He was one of my favorite S4 developers.

He just released some excellent roms for the M8...and they all rock.

I am all over this, there will be a Vision rom soon!:good::good:

[Q] How to unroot while not returning to stock

I am trying to get Good for Enterprise to work for my emails. But it always detects the root.
I have the T Mobile HTC One with Google Play everything.
Is it possible to just unroot?
Thanks

Yes, you can unroot by deleting the Superuser.apk and busybox.apk (If installed) from the /system/app folder and also the su binary from /system/xbin on your phone.

If you have SuperSu by Chainfire you can go into settings and perform a full unroot..

You cannot downgrade or root, and most likely never will on this phone.

Quadrooter

Could we use the newly discovered quadrooter vulnerabilities to root this phone?
Mods please move to correct section if this place is not coorect.

Oh this would be lovely. The phone is vulnerable to Quadrooter exploits!

Vulnerable indeed!

Great all we need now is for a dev to make a generic universal rooting app using this exploit.

thats not all you need, and that alone is a pretty big task, you wont see a universal tool for this

I have no idea, but its nothing anymore special than the other monthly kernel vulns we see. For your phone you would need a bootlaoder or dmverity exploit too

Huh I thought that root and bootloader unlocks were seperate because we didn't need an unlocked bootloader for towelroot. But also dm-verity was introduced in Android 4.4 and towelroot for this was for 4.4.2 and thee was no dm-verity bypass needed.

Hi, after all remote commands , or vulnerabilities, read carefully where is your /system malware by default.
Thanks!
What is the cne module?

Towel root didn't have to contend with modern android

dm-verity was not enforcing then

So in simple terms I'm probably not gonna see a root method using quadrooter in the near future?

The best that is going to be possible is probably temp root.

Best possible thing to do would be to keep it on as long as you can and download a rom installer, to write a script to install the rom that the phone HAS to abide by.

I mean if you could disable SeLinux you could probably use Flashfire.

Is any work being done to try and root the us version or has everyone given up on that happening

It's not physically possible, bootloader is locked.

No it's possible.... But very hard they had some bootloader locked phones rooted and with twrp ... But the last few have been no go...s9 still isn't rooted... You need to find a exploit that allows you to get su access and sadly most of the people that were doing such things now make money with the phone manufactures on the other side..
