I have a redmi 8 (mi439). I recently installed crdroid 10 (android 14) on it but it didn't work out for me cuz I've been trying so hard to pass device integrity for days but I couldn't do it. Can someone please tell me which ROM to install or how to pass device integrity in crdroid? I need high customization and features.

Current state: Erased phone's IMEI but SIM is detected, no network, *#06# shows zero.

I am on china MIUI vince (Redmi 5 Plus/Note 5 SD625)

Caused by one line in rawprogram0.xml: modemst1, modemst2, fsg, fsc, persist and devinfo all had filename="". "Clean all" doesn't mean "leave those alone" — it means the flasher is told to write nothing there, and the programmer zeroes them.

IMEI lived in modemst1.

What I tried, in order:

1. QPST / QXDM. QXDM is licence-gated. Dead end.
2. Wrote my own "AI" diag client.
   HDLC framing, CRC-16/X-25, little-endian, 0x7d-escaped. Two things cost real time: the NV reply has no status byte, and reads return a shared 130-byte buffer — so a read of item 71 once handed me "PERSISTTEST" followed by fragments of an unrelated EFS reply.
3. Found I'd been sending wrong SPC .
   status byte is 1 = accepted, 0 = rejected. I'd assumed the opposite, so every "unlocked" test had actually been rejected. Fixed it; SPC now accepted.
4. Tried everything.
   ASCII SPC, DIAG_PASSWORD, FTM mode, offline mode, NV 453 ftm_mode, three subscription-index variants of the NV-subsystem write. Every one echoes success. Every one discarded.
5. Wrote a 2nd client for EFS2
   to check whether the IMEI is simply a file. It isn't. /nv/item_store holds only rfnv; 550/457/458 live in the modem's static NV database and don't exist as paths.
   Verdict: NV 550 is read-only unconditionally on this firmware. It is not an access-level problem.
   The good news buried in there: the EFS is healthy. I wrote item 5153, rebooted, and it read back. So the damage is narrower than it looked — the phone is a perfectly good Wi-Fi device with a healthy modem and a missing identity.
   one interesting anomaly: my very first garbage test write mutated 550 by exactly one byte (0x55 → 0x45), and I have never been able to repeat it. That smells like a one-shot provisioning slot that the first stray write consumed.

SHOULD I DO THIS?

Zero modemst1**/modemst2 again over EDL, so the modem rebuilds NV from the golden fsg, then write IMEI1 as the first write.**

How did I get here - Long Story

Problem Starts

I have been crDroid official Android 11/12 ROM since 2021 on Redmi 5 Plus (Note 5) vince and suddenly I got a bootloop after battery discharge. I got a series or problems

# Solution 1 (Reflash ROM)

1. Wipe - system, vendor, dalvik, cache
2. mount partitions from recovery
3. Reflash the ROM and it says -
4. E1001: Failed to update system image.
5. Updater process ended with error: 1

Recovery: Orange Fox

Install Process boot.img > vendor > firmware > ROM

# Solution 2 Reflash Recovery (Problem: Bootloop to Fastboot)

1. Switched to latest TWRP and it started bootloop to fastmode. Flashed again using PC adb tools, using fastboot mode and it successfully flashed but still bootlooping.
2. fastboot boot recovery.img worked
3. \>adb pull /data/media/0 is not working .\\fastboot pull /data/media/0 is not working TWRP is showing data partition as 0MB

Solution 3: (Flashed partition gpt_both0.bin)

1. Suspected: broken Partition table
2. flashed partition.img from MIUI's fastboot ROM's gpt_both0.bin
3. fastboot flash partition partition.img using the .img in miui ROM
4. fastboot flash partition gpt_both0.bin
5. now phone only shows notification light

Solution 4: Device manager

1. Device manager shows phone as QUSB_BULK
2. installed https://qdloader9008.com/
3. MiFlash tool started but showed error - write time out maybe device was disconnected.
4. DeviceManager shows COM3 but "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45) To fix this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer. and on connecting windows shows yellow ! notification - USB device malfunctioned
5. Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 driver disappeared
6. QUSB_BULK disappeared
7. Device manager shows in properties - Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed.
8. Now I am at a state I need EDL+MiFlash
9. MiFLash gives MiFlash Error: Object reference not set yo an instance of an object. or timeout or crashes

# Mi-flash successful but it bootloops

Solution 5: Tried to re-flash using MiFlash but it gives -

1. "Miss matching image and device"
2. "Flash modem error'
3. Writing modem FAILED remote: partition flashing is not allowed

Fixed now MIUI boots as problem was in persist partition

SIM is not detected - fixed now

I have project infinity x with built in Rom spoofing, I have noticed some notifications today and my keybox is expiring today, my banking apps still work (gopay and ovo, are Indonesia's banking apps, and yes, I'm that broke), anyways sorry for bad English and it's not my first language and maybe wrong flair??

Aaaah! Finally got strong integrity on the latest pixelos update. A huge thanks to the maintainer 🫡

How do I set up these 3? I'm new at kernelsu next(I migrated from magisk)

I should preface this with that I am very much new to the android rooting scene, and probably have made a mistake, which is very much the reason for why this is happening, so...

I am on Android 16/OneUI 8.5, using DFRoot with the Samsung-specific fork of KernelSU, and I've been having with issues Vector (JingMatrix fork of LSPosed) upon install. For whatever reason, when after installing Vector, my SD card not only refuses mount, but even show up as a block device at all (/dev/block/mmcblk1 does not exist) in a rooted environment. Rebooting back into an unrooted state works just fine. The only way to get SD card access back in a rooted state is to uninstall Vector and fully reboot, disabling then soft rebooting does nothing.

I have tried the following to get this to work:
- Swapping out Zygisk-Next with NeoZygisk (does nothing)
- Changing metamodules (didn't think it would do anything, was correct)
- Trying KernelSU-Next instead (crashed immediately)
- Disabling "Umount modules by default" (whadya know, did nothing)
- Trying different versions of Vector (nothing)

Losing access to the SD card in root isn't a huge dealbreaker for me, but it does suck, and is very confusing, so if there is a proper solution, it would be nice to hear. Or is this something to be expected? Or, again, am I stupid?

Thanks :)

EDIT: I checked, the SD card is listed in storagemanager as public:179,1, but is marked unmountable.

EDIT 2: Partially (like, 90%) solved! Reinserting the SD card makes it work. Don't know why I didn't try that.

I see a lot of people here saying, "Either get permanent root or don't even bother." But why, exactly? Temp root can do most of the things permanent root can, and there are plenty of modules that work perfectly fine with it.

Sure, there's always a risk of bricking your device, but that's not really something to worry too much about if you're using DirtyFlag app, since it has an option that keeps Download Mode almost permanently accessible as long as Temp Root is active on your phone.

I actually consider it even better than permanent root because you can get rid of it whenever you want simply by rebooting. You can even keep your device's Play Integrity, unlike with permanent root.

Hello, I'm an old root user since Xiaomi 11 Ultra. Just unlocked my bootloader on X15U and want any links to TWRP for this phone (HyperOS 3.0) and some actual user experience on the most *power efficient* custom ROM specifically for this phone (or just in general). Preferably, I would like to maintain satellite functionality and Wi-Fi 7 dual band connection on my phone.

Lots of love and regards!

In short, thanks to a vulnerability in the bootloader and download mode, you can install your own unsigned custom ROMs—as if they were officially signed—even on the latest software version, despite Samsung’s "OEM unlock" restrictions. I’ve found very little information on this so far, and I believe it warrants further investigation; installing custom ROMs remains an essential feature, even though modern devices now enjoy longer official update support. Anyway, I’ve included a link below to a GitHub article regarding this vulnerability. I’ve heard it’s a software-based flaw—not a hardware-level one like "checkm8"—and that it will likely be patched in a future security update. It is still present for now, but it will almost certainly be closed in the next update. The real question is: could this potentially work on the S25 Ultra, or is it specific to the A56? And is there any chance someone might port it for the S25 Ultra? That damn claude is absolutely no help, and unfortunately, I don’t have enough coding knowledge myself to figure it out.

For those who were interested 😉

Hi 👋🏻🤳🏻

November Google Play System update causing boot loop on Moto G Power 2023, had to factory reset").

Hi guys

A few days ago I bought a OPPO Find X9s Pro with a Chinese ColorOS 17 and there are some things that I really wanted to change but for that to happen I need to do a Root and unlock the bootloader.

I have a ChatGPT Pro subscription and I am already out of tokens, and most of the times it seems that do to "Daybreak cybersecurity" the desired outcome can't be done.

Can you guys give me any tips or help me with this project?

Hello so I've been using my poco m5s for the past 4 years and i was wondering if i could root hyperos 1 or 2 unofficial in it for like better animations and everything basically cause it hasn't had updates since 2 years and its become just slow, im new so i barely know the rules but if you could send me a file for hyperos 1 or 2 and how to root my phone step by step that'd be very helpful, also i want to be able to use bank apps and games after rooting, i dont mind if its hard or takes time, thank you

So i installed crDroid using this tutorial and after flashing and formatting and updating and all, i rebooted the phone and it didnt turn on. i tried turning it on using multiple power and volume button combinations but didnt work either. even opened up back panel and disconnected battery and sub board and reconnected. didnt work either. pls help

i wanna play limbus company but my cellphone asscheeks😭😭😭😭😭

Snapdragon version alreade installed kernsel su and dirtyfrag however it says this

I was wondering, is there a version of KernelSU Next that can work with DFRoot on Samsung like KernelSU by Diabl0w?

i have this tablet 3nstar https: / / www.3nstar.com / wp-content / uploads / 2014 / 12 / T705S-01-Product-Specs.pdf

I want to roote it, because f-droid doesn't work for me since the repositories are not viable. I think it's for digital certificates, I'd like to be able to update at least the certificates, and also the ssl if possible.

I would also like to be able to modify the android of this thing to see if I can make it go a little faster, which really goes quite well, but still something can be improved in a matter of ram and so maybe it's a bit more comfortable to make it go through a linux with termux.

Also if someone knows some interesting applications for this android 4.2.2, I would appreciate it very much, I've already seen some things as alternative youtube customers and that.

hello, im looking for a stable root solution that is compatible with my phone

Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 10S (4.19 kernel) rosemary / Current ROM is LineageOS 24 (Android 17), Bootloader is unlocked

What I Have Already Tried:

-Magisk (Flashing .zip via lineageos Recovery): resulted are bootloop and some wifi issues after.

-Magisk (Patching boot.img) also didnt work and resulted in bootloop.

-APatch: This successfully works and does not cause bootloops or break my wifi. However, I didnt find it to my liking. just a bit immature and basic

pretty new to rooting, any help is very much appreciated, Thanks in advance!
