Here, Here!!! I second that! Been following this thread from the get-go, hoping to god these guys don't give up!. The suspense of the challenge is overwhelming. Amazing how something so small has become such a formidable opponent. My hats off to all who have taken-on the challenger. I excitingly await the moment wherein this will be solved. Thank you Stayboogy and other contributors for all you work...Here's to ya!
Anony49, Thanks for the update, we value all info. It def. keeps us hopeful....Stayboogy: Thanks again for the much work you've put into this project. We look forward to the next step.
Great! Glad to hear it and look forward to getting this thing rooted.
Hey Stayboogy!, great to hear from ya bruh! I'm sure I'm not the only one excited to get any news. Question...Is the current testing still limited to pre-heartbleed fixed phones only? I have 2 phones, one updated one not. either way I'm willing to go guinea pig if you're willing to instruct. It's a beautiful thing to be part of history! woot, woot!!!. Anywho, my knowledge with ADB is limited, but, I'll be damned if I don't have a passion for learning!...keep up the good work, thanks again bruh!
Ha,ha, thats some funny sh*t!, I completely understand, I feel ya pain! Every day I feel like some creepy dude all quiet behind the scenes, hiding from everyone while I creep into the forum hoping to god that someone wrote something, anything!, lol. I know the waiting sucks but I have to keep an open mind to the fact that there are but maybe 1-3, if that, devs/contributors, that are active on this project and, Stayboogie happens to be the current one (1). It could be worse...we might not have anyone!, now that would really suck!. I take whatever I can get, not to mention the fact that everyday life responsibilities affect how much time and effort these guys can invest on any given project. The best thing we can do is continue to support and encourage all these devs/contributors and, to standby so when the time comes that they will need our help as testers and such we, in return, can be there for them. In the meantime, I guess I'll continue to try and catch that damn elusive carrot!!! lol!
I haven't checked the thread since the weekend and didn't receive a notification of an new message in the thread since mrfeh posted on Monday. Just thought I'd check tonight. Had no idea what TeamViewer was. just looked it up. I have no objection to you looking at my phone using it. I don't keep anything personal on it. I have used VNC's for years to remotely support my Windows clients and they trust me, so I'll trust you to do the same for me, if you're still interested in doing so. I really interested in being more knowledgeable about the Android OS but it's a steep learning curve with getting proficient in the Java and all that's required. I only see this as helping me along with the learning.
@hroark13, Hey thanks for your time and effort! I must say that I completely agree with 2BitGary. As much as I would love to help I'm not about to go at it that way where the security of my personal info n stuff is potentially compromised. Please take no offense at this, it's not just with you, it's with anyone. I would rather donate a phone or something instead. But don't let this discourage you.
Well I for one have offered the benefit of the doubt to all the devs/contributors because, experience has proven that "limited support" projects such as this one sometimes can/do take a while, trust me, been there done that! Out of consideration for those trying to work on any project I make it a point to keep a balance between "seek and discover" so as to not burden them as they try to work on figuring things out, with that said.........DAMN!!!......have we been abandoned? Are we just reaching for this damn carrot that in reality, on this forum, we will never reach? I have to admit, I'm starting to feel the same way as Anony49, maybe not quite the same expression but, definitely the same emotion. The activity and communication has come to a halt! I'm patient and open-minded but damn! throw a brotha' some scraps or a bone here and there! I'm not looking for a lot of scraps nor a big meaty bone, just something, anything! A simple "we're still here" would do wonders right about...now! For the sake of the respect and appreciation we do have for this forum, staff, members and supporters, I pray that this is not the case, as Anony49 introduced. If we end up finding out that this is the case, then let me say it now ahead of time..."NOT COOL!...NOT COOL AT ALL!" not to mention the negative affect it will have on the members and the forum in general. I will however do my best to keep hope alive because it's literally all I have left that, "for now", I'm still willing to give.
"Guys--things happen when they happen"Guys--things happen when they happen
We never know what circumstances might have arisen for any given member.
So, let's just be grateful and appreciative for what we know and give the benefit of the doubt for the rest.
Thanks!
I know you'll do that for someone else.........Holy smokes! I just happened to glance at the front page and just happened to notice that this has been going on since 2013? I'll pretend that it means that we are getting closer!Well said, krusifyd--thank you for that very nice reply.
I've been following this thread (with great interest) for quite a while now and still hold out hope for you guys.
You wasn't kidding when you said that you've been following this thread for a while. I like your style bro'...not giving up hope. I have a lifetime supply of hope that has to be put to use, what better place to apply it at than where it's needed!? Hey I noticed (how can anyone miss it?) that this particular thread has been the most active above all others by a huge margin. That alone makes me proud to be a part of this.
.Coming in like a boss! I like it! Well in that case welcome and welcome back! We sure could use and appreciate any support we can get. Thanks for your offer.
From the beginning I've always felt that stayboogy was on to something when he spoke concerning a ghost partition scenario of some sort. He kept trying to tell us that; in the first place, we were actually never accessing the systems (read/write) although, at times, the system would reflect that we were. If we never were "in" the system, than anything that we would have done under such system would have never worked permanently! well at-least not for the system we're trying to get into. I do believe stayboogy continued with his hunch and eventually figured it out. I believe he had an idea of the answer before he even worked on it, and he has confirmed some strides too, which is freakn' awesome! Thanks stayboogy! (don't make me have to call you carrot man!!! lol. just messin') Unfortunately we're pretty short handed on the tech. side, including myself but, there are plenty of us here willing and capable in the hardware dept. In the meantime I would suggest that those that have the tech. skills, make an attempt to pm stayboogy with with your interest to support him, that way we will grow this circle of tech "support" that way when one can't work on a current attempt the other can because he's in the know. Communication is a must, without it we struggle to achieve that which is accomplished. Any-who....excited.......Feelin' Goooooooood about this!!!!!!!!!Hey Jaay Dogg! Great to see you again
This thread's quite a long read, but lots of things already done and documented about what's been tried...I'm not able to properly summarize it here, but the device can be temp rooted but won't "stick"...something weird going on that is preventing perma root.
Best of luck!
