Tecmobile You 25 root - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
After a long time looking ways to root the You 25, I've found the right way to do it.
The You 25 is very similar to Micromax A51, as some users suggested. It is based on broadcom cpu.
Quick characteristics: gb 2,3,7, 256Mb ram, 256Mb rom, 2Gb Sdcard, dual sims, 3g ....
On Win7: Disable antivirus
1) Download unlockroot23
2) Execute unlockroot23
3) Two items:
- execute install driver
- You 25ower off; take off batteryand back ; connect You 25 usb cable to the pc; wait driverdetection (popup tells adb installed or something similar); poweron you25; set it in debug mode and unknown source checked (in settings applications menu) ...
4) Execute unlookroot.exe
2 panes popup opens:
- Click on ROOT (in green) item on the left pane,
- Click on the detected You25 item on the right pane;
Normally rooting is executed (the root button greys on);
Once finished, the You25 reboots (I d'ont remember exactly ...)
After reboot, check for SuperSu icon is there.
Check su with terminal, should ask su access to SuperSu.
Thanks to forii, which I haven't bookmarked. Just in case: Browse with search " Micromax a51 root".

Tecmobile you25: Fixing vulnerabilities (trying)
Hello,
After the rooting, I try to fixmaster key vulnerabilities.
With the forii help ,many thanks to them, I come up with a solution:
- Install bluebox from Google play;
- Install Xposed framework for Gingerbread 2.3 (Xposedinstaller-2.2-2013005.apk (1.25Mb)) from androidforums.com);
- Install Master key fix (support Gingerbread) me.piebridge.masterkeyfixgb_v2-0d0824.apk from Xposed module repository repo.xposed.info
Once setup Xposed and install the module, running bluebox shows all fixed.

[Q] [question] can I put kali on gt-5830i ?

can i put kali on my device??
if so, how?
@AlfredoAAA, The answer is NO . This is the matter of particularity , even If you did meet all of the requirements I would explain later . I am using the sequel of this Popular continuation of Backtrack 5 R3 on my Multi-Boot system for penetration testing and still got problem with my medium custom made bulid ( specially GPU for all injection and compiling \/ coding/scanning/etc etc,,,) Now imagine how on earth this Debian development based going to work on your even most powerful Nexus/Galaxy Note ,,,,,,
Requirements :
- At least 7 GB free on your internal SD card
- Kali Linux custom ARM image dedicated for your device infrastructure >>
Kali Linux has ARM repositories integrated with the mainline distribution so tools for ARM will be updated in conjunction with the rest of the distribution. Kali is currently available for the following ARM devices :
rk3306 mk/ss808
Raspberry Pi
ODROID U2/X2
Samsung Chromebook
EfikaMX
Beaglebone Black
CuBox
Galaxy Note 10.1
- Custom made recovery image for your device form the developer site
- Custom kernel patched for injection in case of wireless assessments for example.
This is quite off topic though , but I am going to share some practical method for medium to powerful devices such as Nexus line ( might be [email protected] related section though,, didn't check it) , which does not require physical installation of Canonical production line.
With the help of the attached app ( released by the same company ) , you can get your Dual boot inside your Android phone ( i,e: Nexus 7/5/,,,,,) .
We’ll need to use the Linux distribution Ubuntu to get this to work, however you won’t need to install it.
Requirements : 3 GB of free space on your device , as it needs this much to actually download and run the OS.
Instructions :
1. Create a live Disc >> Ubuntu website;download the latest desktop OS ( comes with ISO file ); Create your USB stick boot able device with the help of UNetbootin or any device you do prefer though.
2. Boot into Ubuntu >> you know the drill >> Boot your PC with USB attached; Bios choose to boot from your stick USB > After selecting , choose Try Ubuntu. It will boot into it straight from USB without installing anything literally.
3. Put the attached file into Home Folder in the File system . Open up Terminal ( assuming you have rudimentary knowledge of command line in Linux )
Type :
Code:
$ chmod +x dualboot.sh
4. We need to install Correct ADB and dependencies over company's portal through our terminal, which is included in one piece of software.
Type:
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install phablet-tools
and choose "Y" in following scene
5.Connect your Device to your PC; USB Debugging enabled through your settings>Developer. In the terminal from earlier session,
Type to install the app:
Code:
$ ./dualboot.sh
Device will be rebooted couple of times i guess upon completion
6. Ignore anything about loosing root and just press the power button once to reboot.
Once you are back into Android , open your brand new Ubuntu Dual Boot app.
7. Now we need a super fast internet and lots of patient to get through 3GB download .
From within the app, press the greyed out 'Choose which channel to install' to bring up the options. Check 'bootstrap' and scroll down to 'utopic' so you get the recommended
version of the OS. Press install.
8. During installation you'll have to grant SU permission and after a while you will be done. Press 'Reboot to Ubuntu' ( grayed out option) and your device will be booted into Ubuntu Touch OS. ( again ignore any Android identifiers while booting ).
9. Now lets Return to Android : ( Tip :Using Power button to turn it off and on again will allow you to always boot back into Android) and with the reboot button on the app you can get back into OS Touch . please pay attention in this method your Android OS will not be wiped in the process.
As usual , I am not responsible for any kind of device meltdown, possible Bricking ,, etc etc ,, All credits goes to Ubuntu developer team.

[ROM][RK3066][SD/HD] legacy: Coudu's modded ROMs

Here are v4 images for both screen resolutions in KLD variant:
BIG THANKS to @buccaneerbob for sharing the original FW before it was available anywhere else.
These are Android 4.4.4 based and SHOULD have BT ODB fixed (I don't have a bt odb adapter so I can't test, please report if it works or not).
KVV_4.4.4_XRESxYRES_yymmdd_rooted_light_reparted_init.d_v4:
rooted:
- ClockworkMod's Superuser apk, su binary and root daemon (root daemon needed on 4.3+ roms)
reparted: (seems popular these days )
- system reduced from 768MB to 512MB
- oem reduced from 128MB to 64MB
- data increased from 1GB to 3GB
- internal sd in now a bit less than 4GB
removed apks:
- Gmail2 (available on Play Store)
- Maps (available on Play Store)
- GoogleSearch (available on Play Store)
- VoiceSearch (included in GoogleSearch on Play Store)
- Talkback (available on Play Store)
- Google TTS and its libs and files (available on Play Store)
- Adobe Reader and its libs (available on Play Store)
- Instructions (surely useless, not relevant and badly translated from chinese...)
- Chinese and Japanese Keyboards (also removed their libs that are now useless)
- Navgear (just a stupid shortcut to the selected nav app in settings...)
updated/added apks:
- Google Play Store (updated to latest version)
- Google Play Services (updated to latest version with libs correctly installed so no more Google Play Services errors! Fixed on 1024x600 thanks to @ESTIMULO)
- Browser bookmarks sync adapter (added, missing in KLD and KGL)
- Google calendar sync adapter (added, missing in KGL)
- Google contacts sync adapter (added, missing in KGL)
modded:
- init.d support added (late in boot process so every external storages are mounted), you can drop your scripts to /etc/init.d (chmod 755)
- added compatibility symlinks for storage mount points (it may fix issues with apps using hard-coded path to access sdcards and usb, if not it won't hurt anywway!)
- flash_image binary by Androtab, with dump_image and erase image symlinks to flash/erase/dump full partitions (dump_image return an error at the end but you can ignore it, dump is valid)
IT WILL WIPE YOUR DATA AND INTERNAL SD so backup first!
Please note that 1024x600 versions are untested as I don't own such a device but it's modded the same way so it should work flawlessly.
Updated TWRP image
This is an updated Team Win Recovery Project image based on 2.7.0.0 by Abdul from freaktabs (most credits goes to him! )
Updated fstab to new KK part scheme (was mounting kpanic and oem instead of system and internal sd)
updated kernel, modules and config files (full SElinux support)
Still no touchscreen you have to use a mouse. I've spent days trying to make touchscreen work but no luck, I'm starting to think that touchscreen is handled by mcu which then emulates a touch device or some weird things like that...
Now with a 1024x600 image
Please note that 1024x600 version is untested as I don't own such a device but it's Updated the same way so it should work.

How to flash recoveries back and forth to backup/restore data over flashes
Install Jack Palevich's Terminal Emulator for Android from Play Store and use a root explorer to save the apk file to your sd card or usb storage.
Download flash_image binary and use a root explorer to copy it to /system/bin and change permission to 755 rwxr-xr-x (if you are on one of my modded fw it's already installed you can skip this step).
Launch Terminal Emulator and type su to gain root, then type cd /path/to/recovery/folder, then type flash_image recovery twrp.img
You now have twrp installed, type reboot recovery to reboot to twrp.
In twrp use a mouse and go to backup menu to backup data (do not backup to internal sd it will be formatted by update).
Now reboot to system and place update.img at the root of you external sd or usb storage but don't update if prompted
Launch Terminal Emulator and type su to gain root, then type cd /path/to/recovery/folder, then type flash_image recovery recovery.img
You now have standard recovery installed, type reboot recovery to reboot to recovery.
Now you can flash update.img from the menu using power button.
When back into Android use backed up Jack Palevich's Terminal Emulator for Android apk to reinstall it quickly without having to set up google account.
Launch Terminal Emulator and type su to gain root, then type cd /path/to/recovery/folder, then type flash_image recovery twrp.img
You now have twrp installed, type reboot recovery to reboot to twrp.
In twrp use a mouse and go to restore menu to restore data.

[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device"

[Help!] Update System with Terminal Emulator with Error "no space left on device"
I follow the following instruction to update my Meizu Pro5 with success for several times, but i got an error message "no space left on device" this time. Is there any way to solve this?
1. Enable root
Enable root by tapping on Settings-> Accounts-> My Flyme-> Personal settings (first option) -> System privileges and set it to open - accept disclaimer and confirm.
2. Download and successfully install Busybox (from Google Play or see .apk below)
3. Download and install a Terminal Emulator (from Google Play or see apk below)
4. Download the correct and desired international (i) ROM/firmware (update.zip) for your device
5. Download and use the update.zip (firmware) converter that creates the required system-i.img
Click here to download converter first
Copy system.new.dat and system.transfer.list (from the update.zip) to the folder “in” (see converter folder)
Then start the converting process by starting System-conVERTER.cmd and pressing option 1 [enter]
If successfully converted you can find the system-i.img in the ‘‘out’’ folder.
6. Copy the converted system-img from ‘‘out’’ to the internal memory of your Meizu device
7. Go to Settings-> Display-> Sleep and set it to at least 10 minutes
8. Start the Terminal Emulator and run (type) the super user command
su
A permission popup will come; give permission by tapping allow (always allow).
9. Now run (type) the command for installing the system-img.
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/XXXXXXX/by-name/system
Replace XXXXXXX with the correct partition system for your device
MX4 Pro = 15540000.dwmmc0
M2 note = mtk-msdc.0
MX4 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p6)
MX5 = mtk-msdc.0 (OR mmcblk0p18)
Pro 5 = 15570000.ufs
Example for MX5 : dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system
Note: Pro5 might require: dd if=/storage/emulated/0/system.img instead of /sdcard/
10. The installation should start after the ‘‘dd if’’ command, but please note…
…it may seem that the copying/process did NOT start because you didn’t notice it, but it DID start.
do NOT type a new command or whatsoever, just…
…be patient and give your device 5-10 minutes to process.
11. When the process is done you’ll see a # at the very end
Your device should be unresponsive by now - this is normal
12. Now just shutdown your phone (hold power button) and reboot it
13. Once successfully booted your device should be running an I-rom
Once in Flyme again it is wise - but not necessary - to completely reset your phone. Go to settings->about phone->memory->factory data reset-> check both boxes and click start cleaning (this could take 5-10minutes). Always backup your stuff if necessary.

"Updating Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, and Pixel 6a devices to Android 13 for the first time
Warning: The Android 13 update for Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, and the Pixel 6a contains a bootloader update that increments the anti-roll back version for the bootloader. This prevents the device from rolling back to previous vulnerable versions of the bootloader. After flashing an Android 13 build on these devices you will not be able to flash and boot older Android 12 builds. For developers who need to develop and test against an Android 12 environment, a special Developer Support Build that contains the bootloader update should be used.
After taking an Android 13 update and successfully booting the device post update, an Android 12 build resides in the inactive slot (seamless updates for more information on slots) of the device. The inactive slot contains an older bootloader whose anti-rollback version has not been incremented. If the active slot is then flashed with a build that fails to boot, the fallback mechanism of seamless updates kicks in and the device tries to boot from the inactive slot. Since the inactive slot contains the older bootloader, the device enters an unbootable state.
To avoid hitting this state, if you are flashing a Pixel 6, Pixel 6a, or Pixel 6 Pro device with an Android 13 build for the first time, please flash the bootloader partition to the inactive slot"...
If you want to update to the Android 13 Factory image without wiping your phone: Do Flash Factory Image Keep Data (below).
Always verify you have the latest working version of SDK Platform-Tools installed on your computer before installing the Factory Image: Pixel 6 - oriole.
If you get an error while flashing, try one of these options:
Change the USB port to a non charging USB port.
Change the USB cord.
Change Computers.
If you phone bootloops
Press the Power button until the phone turns off.
Press the Power and Volume Down to boot the bootloader.
Open a Command Prompt in the SDK-Platform-tools folder or the folder that has adb.exe in it, and type adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules

For sure! Depending on your time committments that would be great.
When I go to patch the boot.img I get an error in Magisk
Code:
- Device platform: arm64-v8a
- Installing 92546e8a (23016)
! Process error
! Installation failed
In the logs, I see the following error in the stack trace
Code:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/boot.img: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)
It seems like Magisk doesn't have permission to access the boot image?
EDIT:
Nevermind, it was caused by the app I was using to select the file. I used Google's default Files app and that fixed it
As always, great work! Boomarked in case i have a brain fart

I'm assuming you have the latest version of SDK Platform-tools r. 31.0.3 installed on your computer, there are no typing errors on the command fastboot..., USB debugging is enabled, and fastboot.exe is in this folder:
C:\Users\Derek\Desktop
Try opening Command Prompt in this folder:
C:\Users\Derek\Desktop
Then type:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23016_zt99Y.img to flash it.

Passing SafetyNet on Android Emulator

Hi. has anyone experimented with passing the SafetyNet check on an Android Studio x86 emulator? I have tried MagiskHide props config with forcing basic attestation together with Universal SafetyNet fix, as well as hiding Magisk and root denylist, but both Basic Integrity and CTF profile match output 'false' (Fail) in YASNAC safetynet checker. I understand there are other things at play here - Safetynet API is trying to detect whether the OS is running in an emulator, but, other than looking in build.props config file, what else does the Safetynet API check?
I currently have exactly the same problem. Have you by any chance found a solution for the problem in the meantime?
Also so it works on Android Devices, iam not sure if it works on an Emulator!!!
Magisk_Module_+_Uninstaller << Here the Files
-Install Magisk.apk App from /sdcard/ and start Magisk App
-go to Settings and Enable "Zygisk" Option
-Setup the Denie-List with Apps you would hide Root (Especially Banking-Apps and other the dont start in Rooted-Device)
-Setup "Hide-Magisk-App" and choose a name 4 the new Shortcut
-Now The App starts again
-goto Modules and choose "Setup from Internal_storage" and Install "MagiskHidePropsConf-v6.1.2.zip" & "safetynet-fix-v2.4.0.zip" without Restart the Device!!!
-After that reboot the Device
-Now Setup a Terminal_Emulator/Termux/etc.. from PlayStore!!!
-open your Terminal on Android and Type the following command
su
props
choose 1
choose f
choose your Device in next 2 Steps!!
(Samsung - 26 / Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2019 - 84)
choose y
choose y to reboot Device!!
-After Reboot open Settings and go to Apps
show all and choose
1# Google-PlayStore and Clear Stored-Datas/ Clear Cache
than goto
2# Google-PlayServices and Clear Stored-Datas/ Clear Cache
-Now you can Download "YASNAC SafetyNet Checker" from Playstore and can Check the Status!!!
-Finish!!!!!!
