And another to not buy from

[podagee]

If you heard of these guys http://prophoneunlock.ca/ , i highly recommend that you do not purchase anything from them! i was asking the seller a couple times if he was sure the ENG_ROOT file would root the bootloader v2 and he said the source said "YES." what a bunch of bull. So i attempted flash about 5 times and guess what? FAIL!. For the sale the person was quick to respond, for the problem and refund......no response. These guys are weasels and if i were you steer clear away unless you like making donations to bums like these. Thank you and ill post everytime i find a burnt out link like these.

Sorry but just trying to do my part and keep people away from dishonest people like these.

So it failed flashing or it passed but was just the same old factory binary, combination file or eng.boot we've already seen on BL1?

It failed. They said it was for bootloader 2 but it's for bootloader 1. Why lie and sell things like that?

That's beyond me but that's crooked as hell. What model phone? I have one BL2 factory binary and it's for the 955U or U1.

Ive had those files for a whike now bro. I had em posted, pretty sure i was the first one but now its everywhere. I am looking for the root for it. Ive tried and tried rooting but nothing. I am currently on QK5 with the Eng boot so its permissive kernel. But no root i advise not to try this as now my fingerprint sensor does not work.

podagee,

Are you trying that out on an AT&T S8+?

I could be wrong, but my guess would be that if there is a software method to root, it'll be found someplace on XDA. Now an electronic gadget method might be another thing.

Try flashing a rooted system image overtop of the combination firmware.
