Be nice if lg leaked bl unlock software for code strin comparison - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yeas some nice kind hearted soul at lg could leake the software to unlock bootloaders even if it dont work on all varient we would have more of an idea the algorithim lg uses to encrypt the bl partition. From there unlock ive been getting prety in depth. Yes the bl is locked but easly unlockable its the bl partitions encrytion is what i guess the unlock bin take care of. I have a copy of a random unlock.bin. and ive reduced it in a hex ed. Ive also got by 3 bl partitions ripped and am in the proscess of ripping them to hex to compare codes trying to find the unlock string i need help and ideas here have ls991 how do i get my device id so i can compare it in the string of codes i can also convert device idz to hex and run it with my boot partz to see if i can find those stringz.
Now is this a lost cause or any one got input im pretty tech and cumputer salvy so lets get this unlonked guys we csn do this anything is possible

How do i view the content of a .img file 7zip winrar cant open them at all or is this the encryption im runnin into ill post a screenshot in a sec

You know... dictionaries are free for every browser and maybe punctuation marks will help too. Nobody would read your text, because it's just a mess.
But I'm nice and link you to "Android Image Kitchen". You need it to extract & repack the boot.img:

They are its mainly the screen on my tablet I use. It's one of the most horrible interfaces I've ever had. But thank you so kindy good sir

So i think i found the string addrdz that the unlock.bin adressess but of coarse i still need my device id and lgs software to decode my iemi and device id into a usable decryption code

Is it even possible to get into fastboot on a ls991.

REMEMBER THIS IS x86 VERSION OF WP7.1 IT WON'T WORK ON ANY EXISTING WP DEVICE! YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO PORT IT ON ANY DEVICE OR GET WORKING ANY EXE/DLL FROM THIS ROM!
Have Fun Guys
Thanks, man! Let's see it in action
Thanks for sharing! I have a question for you, though: I've tried modifying the image with Xipport and BOOOFF to get it unlocked in the emulator, but I won't run the image after any modification/repackaging.
On the previous images, I could just dump/rebuild the image without issues, but on Mango, even a rebuild with no modifications causes the emulator to freeze after the "Windows Phone" splash screen with the accent color progress bar.
Any thoughts? Is Microsoft using some sort of a checksum or something?
I haven't looked at unlocking image yet...so I can't say anything about that...tools that you are using is quite old...maybe they do something incorrect...need some time to figure out what goes wrong...
Tell me how you get image unlocked and I will look later into this problem...

Haven't heard anything but I would assume so. From what I can tell, while recompiled images are indeed valid, some sort of security mechanism is preventing the compositor (start screen) from loading correctly. That, or it's a really convenient glitch
Then, why don't you just crack the emulator executable? Shouldn't be much more than a conditional jump
i hate to ask this ( quiet embarrassed)
i have downloaded the files, but how do i run this in the wp7 emulator?
When this downloaded is extracted, it produces a number of folders but not a bin file, so not sure how to use it with the SDK emulator ?

[Q] Converting raw BIN dump to something useful

Hi All
I've searched and not found much info on this.
I've got a dump of an HTC HD7 using the Riff box (JTAG). The file is a 512MB BIN file.
Basically I would like to be able to see the files inside it. Ideally I would like to see the files/folders/structure inside the dump. I don't know how difficult or easy this is, so forgive me if I'm asking for the impossible. But is there a way of converting the bin file to something like a cab/nbh or even the files/folders so that I can view them in explorer or some similar tool?
At the moment I'm viewing the file in a hex editor trying to carve out certain files. But I figure since the file system and structure is known on Windows Phone 7, there may be a way of converting the entire image to a better support format.
So if anyone can suggest any tools or ways of doing this, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
How do you use the jtag to get a dump of it? I don't know if you can use htcrie or not (search in this forum for the tool)

I use the Riff Box which is supposed to a dump of the ROM/NAND, which it did, into a .bin file.
I've tried htcrie, but it doesn't load the bin file. I've tried looking for a tool that converts the .bin to a nbh, but found nothing so far

I'm not sure. I took a complete dump of the HD7 and it gave me a 512MB file in a .bin format. I believe that includes the bootloader and everything else, but I could be wrong.
I don't mind what kind of file it gets converted to, as long as I can view the files inside. Thanks

I've looked on that thread and have downloaded the tools. I've also messaged the author of the tool, but not got a reply yet. It looks like the tools which does work on the raw dump/bin files are for the logo and bootloader, not the entire image.
I'm still working on it, but there seems to be a lot of info that I need to sort though.
You may use Qualcomm tool from riff plugin. It's view all partitions
Missed this one.

[Q] Edit Unlock_Code.bin

I was wondering, since it looks like HTCdev has stopped working, would it be possible to alter the Unlock_code.bin file that comes from HTCdev that works for my device to work with another device? I just opened the bin file with notepad to verify that we could edit the file. If we could figure out what makes the Unlock_code.bin file work with my device, maybe we could create a new Unlock_code.bin file to work with a different device, or at least that was what I was thinking.
I'm not smart enough to know that answer, but I'd be willing to throw mine in as well.
I know that unlock code is probably the key, but I haven't seen what's inside that file yet. I can't imagine you could just change that code for your device (since you can still get that code) - that would be too easy.

I need about 4 of them so I can see whats the same vs whats different.
This is a piece of what you find in the Unlock File - 潻刈ഌ垀皅꜂Ẩ筣 - it is in the ball park of 120 characters long, that is just a guesstimate.
Yeah its a bunch of gibberish like it's encrypted or encoded or something. Will send mine over in a few if you think it's worth looking at.

*Removed due to incorrect information*
This is the font I used to help display the characters better - http://www.prokerala.com/downloads/fonts/AnjaliOldLipi.ttf - to install in Win 7 download the file, double click to open, select install on the top left of the window. After that you will be able to select the font in the font list in notepad or whatever text editor you choose.
- Edit - I was incorrect in stating that it was in Malayalam, that appears to only be for ഌ , the part about the font helping better display the characters is true.
Guys, it's not gonna be in a human readable language because that would be dumb of HTC since anyone would be able to replicate the unlock then. Best bet is that comparing several using a hex editor will help.
Isnt the file signed? Thats the whole point of the token really? If you edit it you would lose the signature?
Notepad++ is a good translator And thats how it looks like when you go from ASCII to HEX the Bold is what I coun't convert.

I went ahead and did a conversion as well. I know 123421342 said that these were signed files but is there a way to copy the signature that is associated with the Unlock_Code.bin file? I do not really understand how signed files work, but HTCdev gives a different file per user, are the signatures the same on all of the Unlock_Code.bin files or is it a unique signature for each bin file that only works with your device?
Also, I do not know what I did differently when translating my bin file to Hex but it appeared that all of it was translated.

It's like making an md5 hash. If you change a single bit the hash is changed. If you change the contents htc would have to sign it again so it has the private key signature

Please excuse my ignorance, I really do not have much knowledge of file signatures.
If HTC can resign the bin file, what is stopping us from doing something similar? Isnt it possible to view and make a copy of the file signature before it is altered? I realize these sort of things are in place to not be circumvented but the same could be said about all the work that has been developed here on XDA to unlock bootloaders along with other things.

It's like a checksum, I presume. If the data changes, the signature changes as well to match the checksum. Unless you have inside knowledge of this, it will be extremely difficult to hack the tokens.
Meaning, if you change the data inside the file, you can't reuse the signature.

Would it be possible to extract the signature of a file that has not been altered and then add that signature to an altered file?
I know it seems like a lot of work but if we could figure out how to create our own Unlock_Code.bin files, not only this phone but possibly other HTC phones might be able to use this method.

That would be an interesting approach. Or at least try to change the CID to T-Mobile or something. I honestly don't think it would work though.

2016 version (new fingerprint scanner, combined sim/sd)

Hey guys,
It seems more and more people are receiving the new version of the P8000:
- Stock Android 6
- New fingerprint scanner that is moved slightly higher and is able to unlock phone from screen-off (I confirm this is working)
- Sim 2 is combined with the micro-sd (I haven't tried whether you can have them both in at the same time)
- Somethings new about the display, since people are reporting errors with it after flashing older roms.
Warning: do NOT flash other roms. We have no way to unbrick the soft bricks yet!

Looking forward to hearing from others who have this version/who can help me with these questions.

Sure thing. On a rooted device, go into adb shell.
Then use "mount" command to check which partitions are mounted. One should be "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system" or similar. Use "dd if=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system of=/storage/emulated/0/system.img bs=1M" to dump the system to the internal sdcard to the file "system.img". If adb complains that bs=1M is an invalid option, try again without that one. A system dump can take some time where you will not get any feedback, so be patient there
Do the same for boot. So "/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/boot" should be the way to go for the path. I cannot tell the definite pathes on Android 6.0 but I am rather sure they are more or less like this.
If you run into troubles, just ask

Thank you for your great instructions! The problem is that we've yet to achieve root on this device. We don't have a custom recovery for this version of the P8000 yet and other 'standard' methods of rooting don't work for me.
(I'm pretty solid in shell, so I'll do this afterwards, but I guess root is actually the first step).
// Edit to say: it does not come pre-rooted
Since the elephone support on facebook didn't realize there are two different versions of the P8000 available, I still need a ROM to unbrick my phone.

I'm uploading the files - because they contain my NVRAM I send the link as PM as soon as the upload is finished

Are you sure we're talking about the same version of the P8000? Cause as far as I know there isn't 5.1 available for this version... Right?
Just checking thank you for your help in any case!! Really looking forward to it.
// edit: ah, you just used the old scatter file. But does that one work for this version?

No, there is only one Firmware available - the mysterious P8000_6.0_20160516.
Btw, this Phone contains a new mainboard model "K06TS-L-V2.0.3" - the 'old' mainboard is moder "K05T...."

No, it doesn't work resp. the phone boots with this firmware, but the LCD-driver is the wrong one - the display only shows coloured lines and blurry spots. And there are probabely some more bugs ....

But if the phone boots with the firmware, doesnt that mean that the scatter file of the regular P8000 works? Since it flashes the firmware correctly.
The problem is that I was not able to flash the 'readback files' to the faulty phone.
When selecting 'Only Download' at SP-Flashtool I got the error "PMT... must be download"
When selecting 'Firmware Upgrade" I got some BROM error code
In both cases I used the same scatter,txt which I used to 'readback' the firmware from the working phone
Actually I have to correct my statement in post #15:
I flashed the faulty phone with the last 5.1 stock ROM (160711) - with this stock ROM the phone boots up but LCD (and probably more things) is not working.
I have actually gotten alot further
You have the use the scatter.txt from Android 6.0, which works perfectly fine. I have been able to extract boot.img, system.img and recovery.img that way (using Readback in SP Flash Tools)
Which ones do you need?
They probably flash fine (only thing I've flashed so far are custom recoveries, and although my ported PhilZ starts, I havent gotten it to mount anything.)
A little warning: don't use anything that has anything to do with Android 5.1. Those scatter files don't work
These are great news!
"Which ones do you need?"
Probably all of them
Ok this contains the scatter file, preloader, system.img, boot.img and stock recovery.img
https://ehaffmans.stackstorage.com/index.php/s/uKGKCir0BociydU
You need SP Flash Tools v5, select the scatter file first, then deselect everything, and only select these 4 and manually select the correct files.
Btw, the name of the preloader file is wrong, don't worry. It came from this phone
I am of course not responsible for anything!
Can you guys please confirm this doesn't contain anything personal? Like personal files or IMEI or something. Thanks!

S10/S10+ Combination unlock (OEM Token Research)

I figured after reading a few things on the new S10 (non-flashable) combinations we could open up a thread and see if we can crack this probem. To start with, and although I've only started my research on this, I have a unpacked S10+ (TMB) firmware, lz4 decompressing and unpacking as much as i can. Kernel will be unpacked the normal way, and all arm type will need to be reversed or at least analyzed. I figured I'd start with the strings "factory approval", "token", etc.
The token unlocking I've read about is supposedly done by very few people that request payment, but we can figure this out ourselves. They probably just have Samsung hookups. You can get the token message in download mode by flashing an empty steady.bin
or try in a linux terminal
$ truncate -s 1024 steady.bin && tar -H ustar -c steady.bin>test_token_failed.tar
or
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=steady.bin bs=1 count=1024 (tried both with random and zero, and got the same failure codes, maybe another user will have better luck?)
May have to unpack all the APK's from the system image and disassemble in search of strings, and with strings we'll find functions. I'm really thinking it's going to be a code that you can write to steady.bin then flash and unlock. Steady.bin is 1024 bits in size on all the firmware's i've seen. Steady.bin is also associated widely with Reactivation locks (even the Samsung Watches)
Let's reverse these things and get back our repair firmware. I myself don't care about FRP, but for tool development and need combination firmware working!! This is sad, Samsung!

any luck so far ?
sent pm
its actually quite easy to bypass and flash combo.. of course it requires certain files as well as theres a few tricks to it.. the files needed are also not free and hard to find but if u have them then u dont need to purchase factory tokens which can only be used a set number of times forcing you to have to purchase again if u need to...
from my research you cannot make a token aka steady.bin.. its tied to device id aka did.. the ppl that sell em get ur device info then they have access to servers most likely these are businesses that pay for a license with samsung who provides them with access and a signing cert so they can sign the token.. basically takes ur device info then send to server that then uses w.e security amd algorithms to create the token then signs it and sends it back..
steady.bin is then flashed in odin amd then allows factory binary to be flashed.
ive tried to create them with my device info replicating an actual token but it didnt work of course.
ENG tokens are rare and alot more money (probably in thousands) but are done the same way.
i have sold my s10+.
if anyone is interested send me a pm and maybe we can work something out.
I should be able to complete combo flash remotely for example. I do not feel comfortable releasing them to anyone nor the exact method since dont want it to get patched
I can also do some exynos models too but this is untested as i dont own exynos devices.
Shoot me a pm or hit me up on tgram.. should be same as my username on here...

you bought it you can try it.. also g975x is LDU model
I dont have a g975x model.
Also its for all g975 models
What does flashing combo files do? Give root or bootloader unlock or something else?

Really ?
Any clue how to do so?
I need help with such a device..
i dont try but if you can wipe the stady partition with root by dd command or you can flash boot-loader of combination directly by dd or purchase one token of desire set flash it and then take a whole backup by twrp and flash it with twrp this is my thinking i dont know this can work but possible that could be
