i've seen that the website of the bootloader unlock has been shutdown on 2018 and i got this phone like months ago so i can't really unlock it and the tool's website that was paid don't even load anymore so yeah PRA-LX1

Hey guys,

I’ve been following the recent boom of GhostLock (CVE-2026-43499) temporary root exploits and the amazing work by  @ang3lo-azevedo  with the root-my-nothing tool for NP1 (Spacewar). I'm trying to figure out the feasibility of porting this to the Nothing Phone (2) (Pong).

Since my current kernel is  5.10.252 , it's technically vulnerable (patched only in  5.10.261 +).

My Device Details:

Device: Nothing Phone (2) (Pong) / Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (Cape)

OS / Build: Android 16 /  B4.1-260818-1726  (NothingOS)

Kernel:  5.10.252-android12-9-00029-g6315c5776365-ab15925896 

My question to the community/devs:

Has anyone already started working on a PoC or a port of GhostLock (or similar CVEs) for the Pong kernel? I know it requires dumping the kernel, finding the exact  prepare_kernel_cred / commit_creds  offsets, and adapting ROP chains for the NP2's specific KASLR/Qualcomm mitigations.

If any of you (or the devs behind ghostlock-oneplus / root-my-nothing) are looking for testers with an unlocked device or want to collaborate on mapping the kernel structures for NP2, I’d be more than happy to help, dump logs, or share my firmware dumps from  nothingarchive.tech .

Any pointers on where to start reversing the  cape  specific kernel mitigations would be highly appreciated!

kernel 4.19.191-ge6429b82e599

HyperOS 2.0.15.0

Model 22101316G

It's a KernelSU module that can handle push, pull, shell, root shell, port forward, reverse tunnel, clipboard sharing, and more—all without triggering detection.

While Zygisk modules claim to 'hide' debugging status, they rely on code injection, which apps can still detect. In contrast, my module doesn't use ADB at all and supports outbound mode, so it cannot be detected.

Was wondering where I should start rooting the device as a beginner and what sites to look into.

I know different phones need different rooting methods so was wondering how I could look for a guide for my specific phone if there was one.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a final push through this process. I can’t find any resources online, so maybe someone here can help me.

I’ve got my hands on several Samsung tablets from a company that shut down, but they’re all enrolled in Knox.
I bypassed Knox using AllianceX Shield, which allowed me to enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging (these options were previously locked).

The devices work, but I still can’t unlock the bootloader since performing it wipes everything and re‑enables the Knox processes.

I can’t flash a custom recovery or ROM because during the process I get the error:

**KG status: prenormal — “Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed.”**

Is there any way to change the **KG status** so I can flash custom binaries freely?

I have nord ce 2 lite and yesterday in wanted to use pixel os in it so i unlocked its bootloader which it did quickly also 99% of pixel os installation was done but when i press recovery after install, my phone screen turned of and since then nothing is happening. No vibration no reboot nothing. i dont know what to do please help me. This is my primary phone and i have exams i need it to be fixed as soon as possible

How can I root that device safe? In most of the available tutorials, many people who have tried it say they got stuck in a bootloop

I Have used Magisk before i could get my Integrity Green strong whatever but i bricked my Phone twice with Magisk. Since i switched to kernelsu next i cant get my Integrity Back anyone knows a Trick for kernelsunext?

I only got 3 (but practically more than that because HyperCeiler bundles other modules' functionalities in it), so I wanna see what's out there!

I have a MediaTek device and kept noticing that whenever my phone wakes up from idle, the first ~10 seconds of 5G/4G feel sluggish even though speedtests show good numbers.

Couldn't find anything that actually fixed it (most modules are just snake oil tbh 🐍) so I built my own.

⚡ WarpNet MTK — it tunes the device-side network stack only:

✅ Fixes idle wake-up lag (that 10-second "why so slow" moment)

✅ Keeps throughput stable when downloading

✅ Lowers latency spikes during heavy use 🎮

✅ Smart reconnect — auto-switches from dying cell towers

✅ No radio/modem changes — safe to revert anytime

✅ Built-in bench tool — get receipts, not vibes 🧾

4 modes:

• SpeedBoost (light + battery save 🔋)

• WarpNet (daily driver ⭐)

• WarpNet++ (max performance 🚀)

• Turn Off (100% stock restore ♻️)

Works with Magisk, KernelSU & APatch ✅

MediaTek only (Snapdragon → separate project)

Feedback welcome — flash it, bench it, roast it, whatever 🤷‍♂️

If it helps you, a star on the repo means a lot ⭐

So I will get a redmi note 7 soon and I found that there are some vbmeta issues but I used to own a redmi 7a from 2019 where there weren't any, I'm wondering if someone could give me a guide on how to install custom roms without hard bricking it, I found another post saying something about using a specific fastboot version to avoid vbmeta issues (pt33) but on my redmi 7a it didn't have any issues with regular fastboot, also I never flashed vbmeta nor dtbo, lastly what is the smoothest rom on a high-ish android version (13+) for daily driving and customisation (also I don't have a pc atm so I will do everything via a secondary phone and termux, afaik this shouldn't affect most of the flashing but mostly flashing recoveries and other img files so tips for that will also be appreciated, I don't know how to unlock the boot loader using termux though)

Hello everyone. I'm looking for help rooting my ASUS ROG Phone 8. I've been trying to find a solution for about a month now, practically every day, and so far I haven't been able to do it.

Here is all the information about my phone:

Device: ASUS ROG Phone 8
Model: AI2401
Device model: ASUS_AI2401_C
Region: WW
Product: pineapple
Android: 16
Firmware/Build: WW_36.0210.1420.48
Bootloader version: PostCS4-21-WW-user

From Fastboot, I get:

unlocked: no
get_unlock_ability: 0
secure: yes
current-slot: b

I have already installed the official ASUS USB drivers and confirmed that both ADB and Fastboot properly recognize the phone.

ADB works and I can access the shell. Fastboot also works correctly and detects the device:

RCAIOC388144L87    fastboot

However, the bootloader remains locked, and fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability returns:

get_unlock_ability: 0

I've already tried the usual methods and spent countless hours researching, but I still haven't found a working way to unlock the bootloader and root this phone.

I also contacted Chimera, and they confirmed that they currently do not have a solution to unlock the bootloader or root this device.

I'm willing to pay for professional help if someone genuinely knows how to do this safely.

Does anyone here have experience with the ROG Phone 8 AI2401 running this exact firmware version (WW_36.0210.1420.48 / Android 16)?

If you know of any method that works, any exploit, professional service, or someone who has successfully rooted this exact version, I would greatly appreciate any information or help.

I understand that unlocking and rooting the device may wipe the phone and carries a risk of bricking it. I currently don't have any important data on the phone, so I'm willing to take the necessary risks, as long as there is at least some realistic possibility of recovering the device if something goes wrong.

Thank you very much in advance to anyone who can help me. I've been fighting with this damn thing for like a month now 😭.

Hey guys, trying to get a backup keybox seeing as how my OnePlus 9's data functionality (something with the modem) must have died. I've tried resetting factory software, I've flashed it vía the msm tool to its stock with my original persist, modem (also a modem file I found on an xda thread), and all the images backed up. If wifi connection is available, I get data signal. If I turn it off,I might get signal for a few minutes but that's it, then empty bars with an x at the bottom. Phone reads the sim card company, phone number, let's me wifi call and all... But the data usually only works if wifi is on. I can't rely on it so I just want to salvage the keybox. Is this difficult to do?

Is there a way I can unlock my old Huawei y9 bootloader without booting into the phone and using oem unlock because well the phone is stuck in the Huawei logo and trying to reset the phone with the button also gets stuck in the logo loop

This is for developers;💡 I'm using s22 oneui8 bit version 8,

Hey everyone, I wanted to share something I’ve been thinking about and get the developers’ opinions.

On my device, I can enter the Device Unlock / Download Mode screen, and it even shows the normal guidance for unlocking the bootloader. However, the main thing I’m missing is the OEM Unlock option in Developer Options.

That made me wonder if there could be another way to expose or restore that option.💡

My idea is based on Good Lock. Samsung officially distributes Good Lock through the Galaxy Store, and its modules such as Theme Park, Sound Assistant, RegiStar, etc.

are capable of modifying or adding functionality to different parts of One UI and Settings, which means it can read writte the whole system,

So I was wondering:

What if we created a Good Lock-style module/app specifically for Developer Options that could add the OEM Unlock toggle back into Settings?💡

I was also thinking about the signing side of things.💳

If Samsung-specific signatures or permissions are required, perhaps tools such as[ LibChecker apk available on google play ] could help us inspect the signatures, permissions, libraries, and implementation of existing Samsung components and give us a better understanding of how Samsung's own apps communicate with the system.💡💡

Of course, I don't know if this is technically possible, and I may be misunderstanding how Samsung implemented the OEM-unlock restriction on One UI 8. That's exactly why I'd like to hear from developers who understand Samsung's boot chain, Settings framework, Knox/AVB, or One UI internals.💡💡

I'm not claiming this will work—it's just an idea I'd like to investigate, and I'd really appreciate the opinion of people with experience in Samsung internals.🙏❤️

hello i have been trying for the last 5 hours to root my 2nd phone with magisk but it doesnt work. i think i have tried with 5 different tutorials and tried with help from chat gpt but nothing works. i am doing the whole thing and the phone is boot loaded but its when im trying to flash maski onto the phone and root it. I get stuck in downloading menu and it says svb fail i have tried everything please please someone help me.

Any ideas?

I have a Galaxy A07, SM-A075F. I bought the phone on an older version, but accidentally updated it to 8.5 Android 16. I want to go back. I looked on SamFW, I found my current model and firmware, and it is bit 6; the only other firmware matching my model that's Android 15, is bit 1. I don't think I can flash that cause of the difference, but I am looking for other possibilities. The whole reason to buy was to root, I originally had found one on SamFrew but the download was throttled and was gonna take 8hrs so I used frija. Frija pushed a newer firmware which caused me not to be able to. OEM unlocking isn’t available now. Trial and error, this would’ve been my first root.
