jan177, one more question. Guy from "4pda" asks: Is there a chance to see the port of cyanogenmod ?
As far as I know, developer need have access to the drivers in addition to the desire and the skills? It will be available?
This porting is realistic in the long term in your opinion?

I do not see it as highly happening.

jan177, can you explain: what a purpose of this function: Developer options -> Allow OEM unlocking
I thought it was a software lock of the bootloader, but no: TWRP can be flashed with both states of switcher ((
How I can lock my boot and safe my data?

krasnoff · Dec 7, 2016

Also full ROM is missed from mega.nz
Can someone re-upload it again, please?

It is Android option in case manufacturer wants to use it I think.
In case you want to protect data use encryption and/or software rooter

no problem with your eng.

I do not have any info on new ROM.
There is no contact for now with Nomu and no support.
ROM was placed and removed by NOMU.
Perhaps someone can make a backup and place it for download?

Can you tell what are the problems with S20?
perhaps I will try to help

S20 fault on home screen

Hi, had my S20 since mid November. Phone quality seems really good, but last week i noticed the home screen taking a few seconds to start up. Today the screen has failed to come on about 5 times while using it. I have to hold the power button down for about 20 seconds to make it shut down and power back up.
I did a factory rest yesterday and it still has the same fault. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to it failing to start.
I push the power button to open the home screen and get a slight change in the screen, like the back light has come on. I did get the screen come on once and the whole screen went completely white.
Anybody else having any issues?

I have read that the Nomu s20 has a trojan installed on the firmware from the factory, a triada trojan that cannot be removed. Is this true?

Trojan is Triada - manufacturer is silent

Yes, that is true. The trojan is Triada and Kaspersky has made some very nasty blog posts about it.

and I just found it the hard way. Lets just say that I am mighty pissed about it. I came here to look for solutions to get rid of it through switching to a custom rom. If anyone has info on if that works, I would be very interested to hear that. I really like the phone, but the manufacturer just lost all the points from me and went widely into negative (for the trojan, but especially for the lack of response to it).

From what i have read on the Triada issue is that there doesn't seem to be a way of removing it. The Trojan was on the stock S10 firmware as well but can be removed by either downgrading the firmware to 1.0.2 then upgrading OTA to 1.04 or flashing an Archos 50 firmware to the device. I have not seen any updates for removing the virus on the S20 after searching over the last couple of days.

I am glad i read up on the S20 before i bought one but i am also gutted as it would have suited my needs for a work phone perfectly.

I hope you find a solution to remove the Trojan soon. If you do could you post a reply in this thread to let myself and others know ?

Manufacturer totally unresponsive on this

Aye, it looks bad. The only option maybe to try to return the device or put it under a hammer (safer option). I did a factory wipe and it at least helped to identify where the trojan starts its work. It is in module called "Wireless update". The first thing it did was to download to system/app/Fota/AdupsFota.apk what AVG rates it as trojan.downloader.fota.e . I wonder if I do a factory wipe, root the device and remove the wireles update program before it manages to do anything if it would be enough to never allow the trojan to start its work (sounds too simple though).

Sounds quite simple

(and a very good idea!) Have you already done it? I have the same problem and would be highly interested in such a solution. Except this trojan issue the Nomu S20 is a great phone.

I have started a new thread to discuss many of the Nomu S20 problems (click here).

With regard to this ROM MTT IDEAL, have you already flashed and tested on Nomu S20? Do you have a link for the ROM? Is it possible to install TWRP and flash Chainfire SuperSu?

JVitor · Jun 7, 2017

There's a new official ROM on needrom.com which purportedly solves the Triada Trojan problem: https://www.needrom.com/download/nomu_s20_common/ I shall be testing it in the coming days.

Update: the uploader himself tried already and states that the ROM is also infected: "Tried already…. no help, All Nomu ROMs are still infected… anybody can help?".
