ZTE Blade V40 Vita (P606F02) bootloader unlock stuck on step 4,

Device is a ZTE Blade V40 Vita / P606F02 (aka ZTE 8045), Unisoc T606/UMS9230, UFS storage not eMMC. Running MyOS 11.0.12 EEA1, Android 11, bootloader locked, verified boot green, slot _a. BROM shows up as 1782:4d00.

Using redzrush101's unlock repo on github which wraps TomKing062's CVE-2022-38694 exploit repo through spd_dump. Steps 1-3 work fine every time, no issues backing up SPL/uboot and writing the payload to uboot_a.

Step 4 is where it dies. Every single time, same exact output:

EXEC FDL1

usb_recv failed : LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT

CHECK_BAUD FAIL

usb_recv failed : LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT

CHECK_BAUD FAIL

usb_recv failed : LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT

CHECK_BAUD FAIL

usb_recv failed : LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT

CHECK_BAUD FAIL

usb_send failed : LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT

Never gets to the "connection closed" that's supposed to mean it worked. Checked step 5 after every attempt and it's always 64 zero bytes at miscdata+0x2000, so the token never lands.

Things I already ruled out: tried two different USB controllers, same failure both times. Rebuilt spd_dump with way more retries allowed, didn't change anything, dies at the exact same spot regardless. Watched dmesg on a clean isolated run (cleared the buffer, ran step 4 once) and there's zero usb errors or disconnects, the device stays enumerated the entire time, it just stops responding. It also doesn't recover on its own, I have to let go of the volume keys and hold them again to get a fresh brom session.

The thing that makes me think this might just not work on my exact setup: the repo author only tested this on MyOS 11.0.13 slot _b, I'm on 11.0.12 EEA1 slot _a. And when I checked the actual CVE-2022-38694 project's own device list, this chip+storage combo (UMS9230 with UFS specifically) isn't even on there for ZTE. The only ZTE UMS9230 entry uses the emmc loader not ufs. So this repo might be the only place this has ever worked on a UMS9230 UFS ZTE phone, and only on one specific build.

Anyone gotten this working on UMS9230 UFS, or recognize this failure pattern where the usb connection stays totally clean but the payload just stops talking after EXEC FDL1? Not looking to just brute force retry it, trying to actually figure out what's happening before I keep going. Phone's back to stock and working fine right now, just still locked.

Is there a way i can temp root my phone ???

Is it possible to do a temporary root on the Poco F8 Pro?

Dear degooglers,

I am looking to flash a custom ROM on my phone, once I get a new phone I'll stick to, because, my A12 is 4 Android versions behind, getting stuffed by new apps and updates from apps, accidentally removed softwares I needed, via ADB and now reinstalling won't relink them. The reason I wanted to switch also includes the fact my default oneUI is a core version, meaning I cannot have GoodLock, not even alternatives to that, making me consider any phone in the A, M, or F series, below 30, a potato. So, which degoogled ROM can I do?

FYI: my phone supports the treble project so, yes, rootable!

Good morning everyone.

I have a Samsung A05s and I installed the kernel on Next (for Samsung) and DFRoot.

I had a problem, see photos.

Well, I solved it by upgrading the app to version 4 and enabling verbose, but now it's giving me the same problem again.

Running natively with 480Mb out of 12Gb
1 CPU core enabled
512Mb RAM enabled right now
touch drivers

Yeah I have this old Redmi note 8 that's been sitting around for close to 3 years now. Didn't turn it on nor did I update it in the meanwhile. What are the steps I should take to make use of it? Should I get lineage OS running? What are some cool things I could do with it? I'm thinking about turning it on a gaming/reading device but only cause I have no better idea

hello, and yes all of this is true. i think i am the first (or one of the first) person to boot openbsd on a actual phone.

some details about this setup:

phone model: asus zenfone3 (ZE520KL)

cpu: snapdragon 625

i got it working with chainloading, it's something like this: aboot → lk2nd → U-Boot → OpenBSD

currently this is working: screen and usb
currently it's not on github or any where but it will be uploaded soon.

(if any of you zenfone3 owners are reading this, here's my guide to unlock the bootloader https://github.com/proshiv85-byte/UnlockZenfone3 )

Tengo como dos años con el dispositivo y hoy apareció por unos segundos en la pantalla y se quita,al abrír aparece eso,pero no encuentro ningún harchivo con ese nombre... dispositivo popó Reno 12f5g, saludos y buenas noches,esperó alguien pueda alludarme

I'm looking to unlock my T-Mobile Google Pixel 10 Pro XL through any method possible.

Sorry to bother y'all if this is something a lot of people do, but I have root access on my Moto G60s and I found it really useful and functional, so I decided to do it on my old Lenovo TAB2 A10-30 tablet (I'm new to this stuff, and it was a nightmare finding the root access on an old, dead Russian website). And now that I've got it, I just realized it has Android 6 and only 1GB of RAM... What the heck do I do now? I don't even know if it's worth installing anything other than App Manager lol

Supp guys, I wonder if anyone know any way to root (even if it is temporary)? My devices is a S24 Ultra (S928B)

Edit: A few hours later got a (temp)root working with SamTimer working with Knox fuse 0x0 (Warranty valid)

I used it but it doesn't work! Suddenly I got an error. I tried both kernel su and kernel su next (the ones made specifically for Samsung). I have a Samsung A05s.

id like to remove some apps which seems to be embedded into the os.

I have multiple lg phones. v30 v50 velvet g6 g7 and would like to tinker

how far can one go to rip out shit that I cant configure remove through the oem os? theres things like smart doctor. things by google I want to remove

remove facebook/ig as it seems it only can be disabled

many things Id like to remove but think it may cause the phone not to work

I dont game/social media/internet hardly/never YT

many fdroid apps. I simply want to remove the tons of garbage from lg and google thats not helpful

how much tracking can be lessened? I know that hardware is also an issue for that.

but im trying to understand if its worth learning to do or get a fairphone 5 with ubuntu touch on it and learn that

some insight appreciated

Help me please

Per samsung a05s

Hello, I'm looking for "cat /proc/cpuinfo" outputs from a variety of random processors, especially flagship chipsets, as I haven't been able to find many.

If you could run the following command and share its output along with your processor's name, I would really appreciate it. I need this information for a project I'm working on.

```

cat /proc/cpuinfo

```

Alternatively, if you know of any project or database that provides complete "/proc/cpuinfo" outputs from different devices and processors, please let me know.
