[ROM][STOCK][Silent OS 3.0.14] Blackphone 2 (BP2) + ROOT

[androidblue]

[UPDATED 2017/08/21]


All
I felt it would make sense to start a new thread for the Blackphone 2, with an original ROM.

Here is: Blackphone BP2 3.0.14 ROM (RoW edition)


In order to install it you must be on 3.09. install via original recovery... which is here...

And for those who want the TWRP, here it is.


Root
(I know you been waiting for it...)

You got two options, let's start with an easy one:
Magisk
1) Download the latest version (ZIP file). copy to the sd card.
2) Boot to TWRP recovery
3) install
4) reboot. install the APK either from the play store or via a direct link (my preferred path)
5) Welcome to the brave world of root
6) Read the guide!

More... soon


Love

I tried to download it more then 30 times, always with same result. What is it gone wrong?

All ok. Download 3.09 ok. System updated to 3.10
Thank you androidblue

Sorry all, I accidentally enabled the "enhanced privacy" option. It is now fixed, and all should have no further problem to download.

The link to "REAL Blackphone 2 Silent OS 3.10 update (April 2017)" https://ln.sync.com/dl/c33995da0/63y9vshx-v9fwjz6c-3mz6yi7i-ky8ekwnr
still says "(#8026) Not authorized: Link has been deleted". Could you fix that too? Thanks.

Edit: also the link to the "original recovery" https://ln.sync.com/dl/9429c1020/rgjz6bep-dvmnd36x-r3j7q55c-3vrcmmsh

Hi all

I can assure you that I didn't delete the links. The files still exists, but the link have been deleted.
I'm going to update the links and provide more soon to hopefully prevent this silly act of reporting the files are illigal.

Silent Circle - if you're behind this, please stop. This is unprofessional.

How do you install this recovery_BP2_310_ORIGINAL.img file?
Thank you for these files.

 

[androidblue]

How do you install this recovery_BP2_310_ORIGINAL.img file?
Thank you for these files.

1) enter settings, about phone, scroll down to build, press until you are a developer, get out of about phone.
2) enter developer menu, allow oem unlock, shutdown phone, keep unconnected to computer/power.
3) install abd tools.
4) press the volume down, and then while being pressed press the power button. release when you see the "android" menu
5) magic time. connect cable to computer, type

fastboot flash recovery recovery_BP2_310_ORIGINAL.img
fastboot reboot

6) phones reboot. quickly press the power up + power key before the phone reboots. if it rebooted, just keep on pressing them until it reboots again and release when you see the android screen. welcome to recovery.

[Rapyer]

I updated to 3.0.10, but when i check updates, it still tells me update 3.0.10 available?

also when i try install twrp, it still says phone locked despite oem and usb debugging being unlocked

you missed an important step... unlocking it.
boot into bootloader (lower volume + power key)
connect to computer
If I remember correctly type:

fastboot oem unlock-go

and after your data will be deleted, you can now flash your recovery with TWRP.

Oh, forgot to mention - why do you still get a message that update 3.0.10 is available:
Your phone is still contacting to silent circle servers and it tries to brick you. soon to be explained how to stop it
