whooooohooo, so do we need to unroot, for we can use this, also could we keep flashing those AOSP roms or we should wait, THAAAAAAANKS ADAAAAAM

Yeah you either have to hope that someone else ports it over or you can dive into linux real fast to unlock it.

Worked great on my MacBook Pro.

Removed the stupid padlock and boot delay! Running latest AOKP JB nightly.

I'm currently unlocked. Did it on my Mac....now we just need non kexec kernels!

Can't you use the stock TW kernel download flash zip from the leankernel thread on Rootzwiki website?

 

[Buddy Revell]

I'd look in the bounty thread. I think the info of who gets the bounty will be posted in there.

Nice! I hope the devs responsible have a great time with that bounty money!:good:

That's a kexec. It defeats the purpose of unlocked bootloaders

Can i just restore my first nandroid which is stock, and run this root

Is anyone else interested in HOW it was cracked? I've been following the thread from the beginning and wished there was a better explanation of what the exploit was

Yes the leankernel is but he has the return to stock kernel in a zip to flash back to stock TW kernel. You should be able to flash that stock kernel after doing the unlock steps. Right?? If so then anyone looking to return to a stock kernel for the unlocking they could use that zip to flash back.

so does anyone know if we have to be 100% stock or can we just do it from whatever current ROM we are running

I did it while running AOKP, never went back to stock.

This is absolutely wonderful news. Never thought I'd hear this news. Thanks to all the developers who worked hard to make this possible.
Almost forgot.... FU Verizon.

someone leaked unsecure bootloader
maybe someone that works/worked for Samsung(just speculation as to if they worked for sammy)

thanks so that means that we keep flashing the unofficial roms till they move to official
