It is still possible the hardware is too different to simply port the recovery. I didn't bring anything until I post an image. Besides, the device still doesn't have kernel source. We can talk about saving it when it is too difficult instead of too new.

Best news ever!!!!

I will be putting some real effort into this over the coming weekend. Things got a little busier than expected so my plan to start running tests today didn't work out as well as I had hoped.

Check the op and the posts above yours for information
Closing the thread until the first build.

I opened this back up since the kernel is also included in the source now. The builds for boot and recovery compile but currently result in a crash. This appears to be security related and, being the first Samsung Galaxy phone (camera had no security) I've worked with, probably something I'm not configuring.
Either way, the source should give developers enough to work with. All of the commandline parameters and such have been verified.

It should be ready to go but fails some check. I know it isn't the recovery failing because the boot.img fails and all I changed in that was adding the line for init.d
I stopped changing anything until I can get the boot working to get valid readings on what needs work.
I miss fastboot. Straight up pass/fail

Galaxy Nexus Came rooted???

Hey,
I bought a Galaxy Nexus here in Vietnam and just realized that it is running a custom rom and has been rooted. The phone was new (no scratches and had the original plastic covering the screen)... My friends here tell me that iPhones are often sold jailbroken so I was wondering if this is normal here??? English is a major challenge so I'm not sure if I will be able to get more information from them...
Everything seems to be working totally fine... just curious.
Post a screen shot of settings/about phone. Do you have superuser apk installed?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Here you go...
Superuser is installed.
Not sure why the picture didn't work... here is a link.
In Vietnam beware of the originality of the phone. It's easy to reseal the phone/box/accessoires,etc.
Definitely they sold you an used item. Go back to the store to get a refund or exchange for real new one.
Hope it helps.

I agree, the OP got sold a used phone.
yeah, i was probably used, or possibly a refurbished phone.
i head of people getting a Certified like new replacement (refurbished) HTC thunderbolt that was rooted with a sense 3.5 ROM on it.
but the phone is def. not a NEW phone from samsung. also, being rooted, who knows what kind of tracking stuff could be on that phone. i would take it back and do the rooting process yourself just to make sure.

Eh, you could always just reflash the factory image instead. That'll pretty well get rid of anything that could be installed on the phone.
Or use fastboot -w to wipe it all and then reflash whatever you want to be on it.
Assuming all the hardware works, of course.

Do you like the food ?
either you paid a very good price and the phone works perfectly, in this case just flash a full official image. You can find them on code.Google.com
Either you paid the full price for a new one or it doesn't work or look fine, in that case I would go back to the shop and ask for a real new one or a refund

If the hardware is working fine then you can just unroot and flash back to stock and you'll be all good.

What is the store's name ? street ?
or, better yet. leave it rooted and install Adfree, Titanium Backup, RM, CWM, WiFi tether etc.... Unlock the bootloader right away while you're at it (since it'll do a wipe/reset) and then go flash some roms!

I can't believe they didn't lock that out! I was gonna wait for a Moto X Developer Edition if it didn't, but now this just makes me decision a little bit easier. I've had an HTC One as my work phone since it came out and I love it and I'll be getting a Moto X tomorrow but I don't know how long I'm keeping that job and this has been making my decision harder.
Another confirmation. Now I wonder if moonshine will work...
Why not confirm again. Just went through the process and unlocked my One as well.

is the past is indicative of the future, unlock now while you can under "other devices"
both the inc4g and dna were able to utilize that to unlock for short periods of time after release, and both got locked out within 10 days-2 weeks
so for those that get the device, don't **** around...just unlock
urgh its like a race against time for me! I get home tomorrow and I'm picking it up around 6pm - I hope I can unlock immediately when I get home
Guys
Im not a dev, im coming from my rooted S3 and I always follow the directions you guys provide and have never had a n issue with my rooting and flashing.
Since i just bought the one should I follow the directions on youtube from and unlock or just sit tight until you guys put all this together....AND I do appreciate all that you guys do for us NON devs..

So information also. Gtk.
"The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time."
Just because I'm not here for magical ROMs, kewl kernelz, and hacks like Xposed doesn't mean I'm wasting my time. There is other info on here. Infact there is more non-ROM related info than ROM info (Moto Z2 Play).
If farting around with your phone is a big deal to you then you bought the wrong one. You should have forked out the dough for a Pixel or settled for an OP.

I rooted mine a couple weeks ago and finally had the time to flash Dolby Atmos. It took me a bit of effort to find a version that would work (CrisFix from a Samsung thread).
My next endeavor will probably be Xposed / Gravity Box.
Cool. I did notice a few posts on here looking for testers to help with various development projects ongoing for the z2 play so theres that as well.
Awesome
Thats really cool! I will totally check it out haha

Well, the issue is, (Should have specified, sorry!)... the actual NFC option doesn't work. When I toggle it on, it stays greyed out and just return to being off. The NFC on my phone works perfectly normally, but even since I returned from LineageOS to stock, it doesn't work now..

I had a similar issue. Do some googling on the issue to confirm, but it sounds like it can be a general issue with any Moto phones.
To fix it, I believe the solution for me was to wipe both modem partitions (I think). Anyway, do some searching to confirm what I'm saying, just to make sure!

AOD, Lockscreen weather e altre mod per OOS Pie

Hi guys, I do not know if you ever looked at this magisk module for OnePlus 6.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-aod-lockscreen-weather-mods-oos-t3847008
Since I'm a pixel style lover, I'd like to have it on 5t too. The developer of the module was very good and made available all the code but unfortunately I can not adapt it to our phone and I was wondering if any capable developer would hurry up the dirty work. I would be the first to support it. What do you think?
Looking forward to devs.... Lets Get It Done! ?

You can have, so far, a fair number of treble GSIs to be flashed. It's a good start.

Looking at the threads related to treble stuff, onscreen FP seems to be a common issue, even if it could vary device by device. Same for camera (Gcam ports wise) and other minor bugs. If you are looking for some AOSP, at the moment GSIs are the only option available.
You must check for some development of sd710/712 devices to understand if some porting/development could be operated in a short while.
This phone has just been released in Europe. Should it be necessary to share a third-party system after a few months?
So when will we see the rom for our devices? It has been 2 weeks since closing fundraising

Relax, man. First, buying the device is not very easy in Brazil, I heard. Second, after buying the device, the dev (as everyone) needs to wait 1-1,5 or even 2 weeks until he can unlock bootloader. So maybe he has not even unlocked bootloader yet and you already panic.
As said above, it had been made a fundraising for a developer from pixel experience to buy the Mi 9 SE and build a rom for it. The goal was reached on 06/26, so the development may already have started or he's waiting for the device to arrive or unlock bootloader. We soon should see the first builds I guess. Let's wait a bit.
any news for this ? like "developer already got the device and are waiting for unlocking keys" or "developer is working on PE" ? anything ??

It took me a month, since I ordered my phone, to get it ready for custom roms.
---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------
I really wish there was a non MIUI stable, fully working custom rom out there. I tried the available options. But, for now, Xiaomi.eu 9.6.27 + Okita kernel (+ Debloater tool) remais the best combination for me.
