Jcase doesn't do it the money. It's his gift to understand this stuff so well and he has a great career in the security industry. However, if he would like us to get a rewards so to speak to either get him a g5 (free, so it could be used as a burner phone for him) or a. Donation to. The charity of his choice. Either way I feel obligated to help jcase in this case.

I'm sure everyone in this thread wouldn't mind putting some money down for a bounty/reward for him to do wither of those things.

Not seeking a free phone nor donations fyi, please dont send or attempt to send

You can't have a modified system because of dm-verify which is enforced in aboot

He said himself that "all you need to do" is dump aboot, turn off dm verify, then flash it back. The problem is aboot is hidden and no one has a dump (except jcase) and no one can flash anything because the commands are disabled (except jcase)

This is not true.. Their is already an LG H830 rom zip for devs only out here on xda.. I just don't know how to extract nor build an .img with it yet.. I am not without skillz but lack research time and am a noob to all the file systems in Android..

When I get home later to my pc will link LG H830 rom here with mega.. I've already extracted it and am into researching my ignorance.. In time I'll figure the process out and hopefully Jcase didn't use any other who do voodoo.. Lol

I thought that was just a /system dump? I could be thinking of a different one though...

I don't know if this helps, but I believe the boot partition to be at sde1, recovery sde2.

I found boot at: '/sys/dev/block/1:0/subsystem/sde1/uevent' which, if you open it, lists:

Code:

MAJOR=8
MINOR=65
DEVNAME=sde1
DEVTYPE=partition
PARTN=1
PARTNAME=boot

I did it from root explorer on my phone. If I was home I'd have extracted all of the partitions and names with a shell script -.-

aboot is sde6

Code:

MAJOR=8
MINOR=70
DEVNAME=sde6
DEVTYPE=partition
PARTN=6
PARTNAME=aboot

Also, MAJOR/MINOR apply to the path too. Like 'sys/dev/block/8:70' would also be aboot.

Don't know if this is a stupid assumption but do you already have root @master_beta? How were you able to get those partitions and use root explorer? Once again sorry if it's a dumb question....

No root. You can still use root explorer without root to browse the file system, you just can't modify anything.

@autoprime is awesome but you should still probably ask someone before you announce things like that. Also, LG world sounds like the weakest amusement park ever lol. [emoji12]
