As someone who blindly took the OTA on day 2 of owning my phone, I would like to thank everyone involved in this exploit for their hard efforts. Lesson learned: NEVER take OTA without checking here first.
On a side note, I do have a question regarding Cerberus(mods if this is not the place I do apologize, however I could not find a proper location that regards the current root without recovery situation). Cerberus can be installed as a system app to prevent removal during a wipe process. Their website mentions two ways to accomplish this:
1. Boot into recovery and install. <-not sure if this can be done with the current root situation.
2. Put the APK on an SD card and use a terminal emulator for the following commands:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /sdcard/Cerberus.apk /system/app/
chmod 644 /system/app/Cerberus.apk
Basically I'm not knowledgeable enough to determine if this will work or brick. Any advise would be appreciated.
