Is everyone really just skipping over my post?! Do I not exist. I would enable it but it concerns me. Is that service KingRoot root?

Thank you. I'll have to wipe the phone or track down what installed that service to remove it.

So we need to find out how to turn off package signing and checking and then remove the entry in the OTA

EliiphasLevi7414 · Dec 2, 2016

Did you try updating with the settings menu sdcard update program or through the android recovery with you custom OTA?

Krlypumaa · Dec 2, 2016

Can someone pl3se try creating a sdrecovery bootmode to see if we can flash n clean through sd like we did with B&N nook encore, LG motion, F6 Samsung' s3 I wil try it myself.

How does one catch the ota? to work on the signing issue at hand?

Page44..

Messi has his modded version which is probably the one you want..

Is bootloader unlocked after sim unlock or is just unlocking another service?

wwwFrAnKwww · Dec 3, 2016

I don't think we will ever get our hands on the stock ROM, that makes getting a custom ROM difficult... Meaning, rooting through recovery modes is not the best option

I don't think this phone is gonna get root

Oh, thank you.

How did you guys extract the boot.img.p file in the .up file I extracted the update_P895T20_MPCS_B08_to_B12.up with winrar. What should I use to extract the boot.img.p file?

I have linked how it looks unpacked

Never say never my friend

That's the device i owned prior. It took forever to achieve root. metro devices are generally easier because the metro version had root before the boost mobile version.

Did you guys that got that far with Kingroot take the update before you used k/r?

Potentially Useful Info:

\META-INF\ and its contents
Please Understand How android Signing works
http://nelenkov.blogspot.com/2013/04/android-code-signing.html

So inside the update the folder \META-INF\ there are three files

CERT.RSA
CERT.SF
MANIFEST.MF

What You Can Do To APK without the private key.

Code Within Each:

CERT.RSA to CERT.pem Had to make it into a pem to get info from the rsa.

This May Be Important to you people trying to bypass and inject files

Fr3shB0ngWat3r · Dec 3, 2016

This "thread" is getting more interesting everyday

LeGiT_dIaMoNd · Dec 3, 2016

I may have that entire thing wrong. I've been looking through sha1 hashes and those are some sort of encrypted hashes so you can't spoof the files. like in previous versions of android

I don't think this phone is gonna get root

Look im not a mod or anything but i just need to say this, when you come on a thread and tell thousands of users that have been using their spare time to not only test and research for bugs but have also took time to log in and share what they have found, coming in here and posting a negative comment like that is tant amount to a spoiled kid jumping up and down and saying, "why dont i have what i want right now." im not being a d!ck im just saying negative comments like those is like a slap in the face to progress and time. Invested. If the time frame that this model takes for R&D to get root doesnt fit ur expectations i suggest you come up with some leads or create your own exploit.

Once again im really not being overly harsh. I just have been on these forums for a week and the comradary i have seen im just this one thread alone is enough to seal the deal for me that we will get root. Findijg bugs and then creating exploits is only the end part of development, there are numerous variables that go into every model. So before you give up remember that this kind of work is what has made android great. You litterally can click one Damn button and get root on hundreds of models, but a lot of people forget that behind that are devs and a community that bust their ass to make end users have that luxury.

Just a rant from another sys admin (Me) who daily gets asked why things arent done quick enough from his boss that might as well be cracking a whip with his out of Touch understanding of what i do for his company fml lol.

EliiphasLevi7414 · Dec 3, 2016

@LeGiT_dIaMoNd - what you just posted has got me wondering if i could perform some type of hacking-fu to capture keys or possible bruteforce sha1 hashes with some trial and error depending on examining simularities between files and their liknesses in a hex editor or some other method, ok i got to think a min. Keep up the great ideas!

EliiphasLevi7414 · Dec 3, 2016

@scary alien - what about setting up a decoy server that will act as a signing server with tools like sslstrip or mitmf (man in the middle framework) i think there could maybe be a way to setup a server masquerading as the sig ing server that will just by default not even check the validity of the hashes but just give a "all ok" to the phone by using a web proxy that tampers all requests gpjng in or out allowing editing of the conditions in real timw (burp suite for example or fiddler) in essence bypassing the checks. And allowing the files to be dumped or at least give the oppurtunity to get some information by sniffing the data that goes to the phone and server when that condition is met in real situations.

Okay I've made a discovery in the developers options. There is a mode called OEM unlocking which allows bootloader to be unlocked. I'm about to try it myself.

As stated i other posts that doesnt do what ur thinking its completely up to the devs as to what options that switch actually does. And. As stated earlier again we wouldnt have a thread going on for almost 60 pages if it was as simple as checking a switch in dev options.

I know that switch is kinda misleading but these are the facts right now. Keep ideas coming in tho we can use as many people as possible on this.
