I've been able to downgrade every aspect of the bootloader to the engineering release except for the aboot. Aboot is the biggest obstacle right now.

I do not even sews out the release of the latest firmware and maybe I can
* what has failed you.

I will contact you with further info via PM. It might take a little work to reproduce it. JCase or anyone else who knows way more about this than I do, if you guys want any info on how it happened let me know.

Well from what Adam is saying on g+ it sounds like he's getting close to something big. I'm not saying that is a bootloader unlock. But he's working on something that would hopefully let us either flash custom recoveries or kernels at the least. What else could it be... Trying to root lol.

I think you are misunderstanding what he has said, at least from what I can see all he has posted was a picture of an oddity, with no claims of anything extraordinary (unless he has posted more since I read his thread)

seems to me to ask him.
* whether he thinks that has a chance at breaking

Given that a developer aboot needs to be signed with the device info, it's going to prove "problematic" to deal with that. Add to that the downgrade issue, well, it's quite challenging indeed. I'm certainly watching with interest, but, many people have been down this road and have hit dead ends. Not to say it can't be done, just that it's very difficult at best.

What he commented on his g+ post.
That's what makes me believe he's working on something...
Secure boot locks the hardware via Qualcomm's methods... hardware level. The challenge is now the Samsung Chain Of Trust.

The challenge was always the chain of trust... That was the only challenge
Yeah. I was just saying it wasn't just Oh "look what I did." And nothing to come from it.

He also replied to on g+
+Adam Outler so it is a beginning of something bigger right?

IT'S STEP 1. I'm locking this to stop the spread of rumors.

Guys, that picture he posted is mine from earlier in this thread. I contacted him when I discovered how to disable secureboot (albeit temporarily.) I've got a new theory of how to get past aboot. If you want to know more, just PM me or something, I'd be happy to explain everything I know, I'd just rather keep it quiet because obviously you can see what happens when things get blown out of proportion.

Please don't keep secrets lol I'm lurking trying to stay informed. People are excited about the progress being made or not made. Either way what's the benefit of radio silence when someone could come along, read up, and have something useful to add? Further more why did this get moved to general?
