[HACK] Change System Status to 'Official' with only Busybox

[Deansmithok]

Hi Everyone
Please could someone zip up their root folder, without system, so that I get a copy of all the /dev files and everything else.
I have looked everywhere and have overwritten the phone with ROMs but they don't include the /dev area of files.
I have SM-G925F exynos 8 core.
If anyone has the same then please zip it all up and post it here for me. It'll mean I can try unlock my phone. I have no idea why my phone doesn't have /dev/mem and other files.

Best regards, Dean

Dean,

First... This whole forum is for the Verizon model SM-N900V version of the Note 3. That's not what you have.

Second... /dev "files" are not files for the most part.. They are links to the hardware created during bootup. Different hardware different links.

UNIX (LINIX) based operating systems have a kernel layer (software) that that is specific to the hardware. Think of the kernel as.. Among other things.... as a series of device drivers that show up in /dev as if they were plain old files.

The point being, hacks that access stuff in /dev are specific to specific hardware... Thus hacks that works on the Verizon Note 3 (snapdragon processor) most likely will not work on a Note 3 from Europe based on the Exynos processor.

You need to get back to straight stock and then move forward with ROMs and kernels designed specifically for your model Note 3.

Hi Donc

Sorry. I didn't realise I was referring to different hardware. My mistake.
