Well I'd like to see a true root for S7 not this engboot crap
just being able to run stuff as root has no development as people won't make roms around a boot image
I'm pledging 50 bucks as a bounty for anyone that manages to achieve true root (unlocked bootloader)
Where we can do the normal root stuff like install twrp/roms etc...
If anyone's interested in this and would care to make a pledge please message me so I can start making a list and total $
to increase the "interest" of devs and stuff
Hopefully we'll see something in the future
Pledges:
Kikusz - $50
beatbreakee - $50
twizt3d - $50
funnjng - $25
MK38MOD0 - $100
destroyer557 - $25
I'm in ... I'm on Sprint, but count me for $50 as well
Man I would donate if I could but I'm just not in a spot to do so right now, it would be a miracle because I'm bored out of my mind right now
I don't see this going anywhere, but I'm good for 50 if it does within a reasonable amount of time
Ill put in $25

well if nobody helps then devs dont take interest..
To me seems the higher the money the more *interested* they become in doing something about it
That's mainly why I started this thread
If anyone needs somebody to test different method I don't mind letting my phone be the test dummy pm me if you want to make a deal
Im down for $100.00 ATT g930a.
I'll pledge $25
This is really catching on
Has anyone gotten this done?
Started back in April... New phones out, and more new devices on the horizon. I have come to terms with a locked bootloader from Samsung. I'll stand by my pledge, but I don't see this going anywhere. I'll hold out till April 2018 but if we're over a year, I don't think the interest will hold personally.
Can I still throw my name in the hat? I'm down for $25.
I've got 42 on it. Within a reasonable amount of time, of course. G935A. Qual. Snap.

Oh sorry about that didn't even read it fully my bad
$100.00
Anyone try to get the phone into Qualcomm mode and flash a China s7 loader Img as our problem is the secure download , since Qualcomm mode is used to re partition the phones file systems and then try to unlock the bootloader as in other forums
Let's go for $33.33!
I used to develop an App which requires root for my own purpose, and I cannot reuse my code!

I will pay whatever developer or person who can crack the bootloader on the nook tablet 400$. Proof will be posted and then I must successfully perform it on my tablet to be paid ( I will have a trusted dev make sure its legit as well). Payment will be made on paypal and I will pay the fees. This offer is open until 12/4/2011 as I have to return my NT on Monday if nothing happens.

December 4th is an impossible deadline dude.
Another Proposal
add 5 bucks to be given by each person who quotes this post, meaning that they accept and are willing to donate $5 to the developer or person who cracks the bootloader before december 4th
Seriously guys, we can't set a deadline on this as 1) December 4th is a bit ridiculous and 2) Money shouldn't even be involved. It makes people dev for a device for the wrong reasons. Stop making bounties, it's a waste of money and time.

Does it really matter how we come by an unlocked bootloader? If its paid for, will you not use it?
I'll add $100 to said bounty. PayPal paid.

It means the developers will always expect to be paid and that is flat out wrong. I will never dev for ONLY cash. I do it for the betterment of the device and the community. If people donate that's up to them but I dont come to work on a device specifically for money.
It shouldn't matter to you why another person develops for a device. That is a personal decision for each individual developer not the community.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The point is to give everyone some added incentive to get it done in 7 days. I am sure its impossible but maybe the extra cash will bring in some people who crack bootloaders from other devices that have theories and thing to try. No one is forcing anyone to try and break it in 7 days, but if someone does then 400$ is their reward
Here's a thought, and I am by no means a genius, but why don't you return your NT, take that $250 + your $400 and buy a better device? Thats what I would do if I had the money to blow, just an idea
I think people who don't know what they're talking about think that you can just brute-force a bootloader key. If a bootloader is locked, there's very little that you can do.
The security features of the bootloader and key it is checking for are programmed into the chip with a one-time-programmable e-fuse. The feature is specifically designed so that it can never be disabled, and therefore the only way around it is getting or figuring out B&N's private signing key

Exactly. It doesn't matter how high you set the reward. The fact remains that a bootloader key is by most means impossible to figure out. Unless of course you make a mistake like Sony did with their PS encryption.
What I really meant was donations, and kind of a prize for the person who does it! and finally unlocks the bootloader.
An alternative

There is of course an alternate course, which I am personally seriously considering (my clock runs out on Nov 30):
Return the Nook Tablet, and buy another if/when someone achieves an "independent" boot from an SDcard. By "independent" I mean that it's able to boot anything (including a copy of B&N 1.4) solely from the SDcard (eg, the ramdisk does not reference the internal memory (except for the /rom details, like the MAC address).
I agree that cracking the signed bootloader scheme is not as easy as some seem to think (based on thirty years of working in the embedded software field myself). However, what IS easy is returning it, and moving to one of the inexpensive but quite decent tablets that are now out in the market. Eg, after buying the Nook Tablet eleven days ago, I bought an Acer A500 a week later, and couldn't be more pleased. Even though I haven't rooted the A500, it does pretty much everything I need as stock (running the Samba app, which requires root, is the exception). That's more than I can say for the Nook Tablet, even though I've rooted the latter (eg, the B&N eMail and Gallery applications are garbage). The nice thing about the NT is the battery life.

I think you are missing the point of this post:
The point is to get MORE people here than our ONE dev to try. All it takes is 1 mistake to break a bootloader and it happens occasionally. If you do not want to participate then please by all means DON'T and stop complaining.
I am fully aware, as everyone else, that the bootloader probably will not be broke in the next 7 days. Everyone should be loudly applauding my attempt to get more devs involved instead of flaming away here and in the other forum about my decision to offer a reward.
I am so going to laugh when someone from left field comes and figures this out while all of you are still complaining. Maybe it should be made a private fix just for me until people come and apologize for the flaming? (I'm not that way and I wouldn't do that, but I know a lot of people that wouldn't put up with the crap I am getting).

I think it's just the ridiculousness of the whole scenario. Why would you piss away $400 on top of the $250 bucks you already spent on the NT, ultimately spending $650 dollars on it, just to get other devs to come in on the project. Take that 650, wait a little bit and get the new Transformer Prime, that thing is freakin sweet. Just my 2 cents, but to each his own.

Well... it is my money and it is my tablet. As i have already explained 3 times I loved the Nook Color and want to love the Nook Tablet. I love the personalization available on the Nook Color and if that was possible on the Nook Tablet it would be EASILY worth it to me. Honestly your opinion about how I spend my money isn't even worth the two cents you are offering.
Once again I don't understand people. I am making an offer to get MORE dev's to come and help us and all people do is complain... how is that helping? even if the bootloader reward fails and i return my NT, you guys are the winners because maybe more devs will show than the ONE we have now.

The campaign is closed, currently the device is paid by:
Albert W - suicideclown
Logan L - Loglud
James B- jtbnet
Charles S - 150pilot
Nick W - Indirect
For people that expressed interested in donation can still donate, but the funds will go directly to the NT development team, as either reserve for another donation developer device, or as funding for the celebratory party for when the bootloader is finally broken and we can get custom rom into our beloved NT
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi my fellow Nook Tablet tinkers and enthusiast, adamoutler has expressed interested in helping us developing for NT, he has extensive experience breaking bootloader for hardware locked devices. I want to see if we can get enough interested from the forum to poll together $280 - $300 dollar to cover the cost for the NT and shipping.
What you guys think of the idea? If we can get enough interest, I am in for $10.
Here is adamoutler own input on the topic
AdamOutler said:
I've been sitting back watching this thread for a while now. It's time to stop this foolishness. First off, the first post was started with absolutely no information.. basically 'you know what would be cool?'.. then the rest of the discussion has been a bunch of randomness. Why has not a single person mentioned the datasheets for the processor or memory? Why has Boone posted a memory dump of IROM? This thread contains nothing useful.
UnBrickable mod is the way to go. Put a device in my hands and ill enable it to boot from USB or sdcard. The device uses a hardware initiates boot chain. This chain can be broken at the hardware level.
This is an omap4430 device right?
Give me a device. Rebellos and I will locate the boot mode 5 pin which unlocks the boot from one NAND. We will then require an interceptor bootloader which is where Rebellos specializes. Once we hardware unlock the device and the interceptor bootloader is in place, the device will accept an insecure bootloader flash.

Origionally the plans was to send a donated NT to Rayman84, but adamoutler expressed more confidence that he can do it. So Indirect, Loglu and Rayman84 talked it over and agree to give the donated device to adamoutler instead.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Update:
Indirect has graciously offer to take up the responsibility of money collection, purchasing and shipping the NT, so we can send the money to his Paypal account:
Indirect said:
Everyone who wants to donate, send the cash to:
[email protected] (it's my paypal account) and I'll order for Adam Outler's nook tablet.

He's the guy who did the unbrickable hardware mod to the Samsung Captivate

+1 on rayman. Great dev.
Any idea on his level of commitment if he were to receive a nook?
I mean I wouldn't want to be like 'HERE IS 250$ BUY A NOOK YOUR HIRED!'
Sure free stuff is nice.. but, it just seems more polite to ask them first..
I think either one would be great. Dalingrin have experience pushing the limit of the NC kernel which has some similarities to the NT kernel. He is also a driving factor for getting CM7 stable on the NC, as well as leading the effort on getting ICS on the NC. I think he can contribute the most in helping us getting a custom and stable CM7 going, even working within the limitation on the NT stock kernel.
I am not too familiar with Rayman's work, but by the sound of the reference from the forum members here, he would be an awesome developer to help support the NT. By the way what is his expertise?
I don't mind we who we donate the NT to, as long as he/she p hehe) can be a great contributor to the NT forum, and help us get custom ROM on the NT sooner. Or even maybe even a custom ICS compatible kernel.
Let see how much interest we can get for a device donation. Once we get the necessary commitment ($260 inc Tax) for a NT, then we can reach out to the developers to see if either one of them is interested.
I'd be in for $10.
Another 10$ from me for sure
I'm in for $10

Hi,
suicideclown managed to get the message to me and here I am
So, yeah, it sounds interesting, BUT:
I'm European so I wouldn't be able to buy one myself
Does the NT even work decently outside of US?
I work on a number of devices, so my spare time is limited
For my previous work, you can checkout at least www.androidroot.mobi
It's mostly directed towards transformer so far, but we have been discussing branching out to other devices, lol. I'm also working on ICS for TF and Notion Ink Adam and I have gotten quite far with that. (including porting to newer kernels)
Disclaimer:
Even if I spent 24/7 on a thing like this, there's no guarantee it's doable. IF I were to get a device I'd certainly spend a considerable amount of time trying to unlock as much as possible, but there's no guarantees ever with things like this.
I realize my response is a bit cryptic, but I just want to make clear how things would work if I were to receive a device in this way (So far, I have bought every single device I've hacked on!)

We could ship you one , It works fine outside the US, you just wouldnt be able to take advantage of the barnes and noble content. .
Would you also need a power converter for europe, or do you have one of these already?

If he wants, we could have the tablet shipped to me and I can remove the apps that it uses to authenticate to Barnes and noble.

Is there a need for that? I'm in Singapore and I managed to register just fine. If shipping is a concern, I am a big fan of Borderlinx (you will need a Citibank credit card for that). They are an excellent reshipping service and you can usually google up a discount coupon code.
I've got $10 on it
I am wondering if it would be easier to buy it from Amazon reseller and have it ship to Europe, instead of me or someone else handling the shipping.

Note that I can't commit to developing for it!

Developing is a very broad word, and it easily leads to misunderstandings, so just wanna set expectations right

1. Shipping can be handled easily.
2. Yes, the only thing is in order to purchase anything from the Market the Nook would need to have a bank account that is either from the US or Canada. This would be a non issue of course as I doubt you would need anything from the B&N Market, and even if you did you could always load up a giftcard and tie it to a B&N account and make purchases that way.
3. A number of us would greatly appreciate any time that you would be able to devote to this device.

Q&A for ZTE V768 (Concord) and V768G (Midnight) Development
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for ZTE V768 (Concord) and V768G (Midnight) Development. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
ZTE Midnight (Z768G)
Was wondering if anyone has any updates on custom roms, unlocking possibilities, custom recovery etc. Just bought this phone for $5 at 7-11 and thought it may be a nice phone to play around with. So far it's rooted based on other forum posts but since then the project seems to be abandoned?

unfortunately, i bricked my phone in a rather silly way. (flashed a test recovery image and discovered that the device will get stuck in a bootloop if its recovery is damaged) if i could get one for $5 here i'd have already bought another! that's a hell of a deal. i was really looking forward to getting something running on this device, but with no viable full flash restore mechanism (that i'm aware of yet) it's a rocky battle.
i don't suppose you'd be willing to purchase another one of these and mail it to me? i can paypal you however much it'd be to buy one (or maybe even two o.o) and ship it, so long as the phone really is only $5. that's a really really appealing price to be able to have a second chance at bringing something interesting to a minimally-supported device!

let me check all the stores in my area again...if not i could always send you this one since i originally bought it to play around with and get something working on it to make it decently usable... pretty much more than just talk, possibly even unlock for use on att towers since coverage here is nonexistent on net10. I have a galaxy s5 i just got today which will be my main phone but this one i was mainly just hoping to get running to introduce my mom to smartphones as an xmas gift. With no coverage here on it's current service the thing is kind of useless to me atm anyways. just message me where you want me to mail it and i'll let you know if i'm able to get anything sent out. I probably won't be able to send anything till after black friday since my work schedule interferes with getting to the post office anytime before that. I'd estimate the thing should cost no more than $5 to ship though. if you need the microsd it came with i will leave it in the phone too. its a 4gb card.

Rooting ZTE 768G Tracfone
I've tried KingoRoot for days now. 4 days to be exact. I can't seem to find ANYTHING that will just simply root this phone. I downloaded and tried VRoot now at LEAST a dozen times in the 2 hours I've been working on it this morning.
Is there a way to root a phone using Android Studio?? I mean the program is there to build and work on Android...wouldn't it have some way to root a phone as well?
A friend gave me this little ZTE 768G Midnight...and it sucks. No memory worth speaking of but if I can get it rooted I can use Link2SD to expand that....
Good afternoon people of XDA,
Today is a the dawn of a new day. A day where we begin the road to unlocking the bootloader to something that many believe is unlockable. Me and a few other users are starting a bounty to bring the incentive to life for all active developers. You can find my previous thread here. Now, when I say progress has been made, I mean that we have gotten into fastboot, we have donation incentives and we already have root so our tools are there we just have to find the exploit. Every day people are finding new exploits furthering our cause into reaching our goal. Now to the developers who want to pursue this, I've very much so tried to get active commands in fastboot but basically its just a dead fastboot for right now. The board on this phone and technologies behind it are so similar to its predecessors that somethings got to give. If you are interested in this cause, i.e. donating or deving on it, please contact me here, or email me at [email protected]
This is in our grasps friends. Spread the word, grab your fellow developers and lets get this thing to be a free wad of cash for whoever can bust it. Lets do this.
Also, I have posted this in other LG V10 forums to try and get help from others.

After almost 1 year later it seems like no one's interested about rooting h860s on the market so I was thinking maybe we can collect some money from all the H860 users around the world and give the money who roots the H860 first. I don't see anything illegal about doing this on this website... What do you think guys?
Good idea, but we need the guarantee that the person or team that happens to pass our LG G5 H860 (H860N for me) in ROOT mode to make this gift and that also it is a guarantee to have the said sum

You're right. We need a authorized collector. That's why I choose this forum because they had a bounty system for rooting G5s before. Maybe they can accept this project too. Otherwise we need to take a look at some other websites which gurantees giving the collected money to the person or group.
So in this case we need to know how much money they'll ask from us for the rooting process. If there's no one else who'll do the process cheaper we can start to collect money for them let's say in couple weeks. But we also have to be sure that person/team will release the root in a reasonable time otherwise we'll have to refund all collected money to people who have donated before.

rooting is a process to find a bug in firmware. you can't be sure, that this bug exist (or qualification of any person enough to find it).
so better to buy unlocked phone from beginning (like google's own)
