what is the benfit of this with out the ability to root the device

There are benefits. Exactly when it comes to get root on the device. It is much easier to check if certain exploit has been patched or unpatched just by looking in the source code instead of wasting time to try to perform it. Speeds up things sort of. Too bad (or welldone should I say) SE guys have patched the current kernel pertty well.

let's hope it helps in rooting

There is no need for jailbreaking a hero. Just follow the guides available to root it. If you can't follow a guide to root, use univeral androot, although you'll still need to understand what you're doing.
There isn't a one-click root, and it's not really in the spirit of xda. Read about custom ROMs, read about rooting, and get flashing...

From what I can see, the source for the Nexus should work, as it uses the same USB implementation, see here: https://spreadsheets.google.com/lv?key=tarAC83Wjsq2QZvP4iR5mlw&toomany=true#gid=0

I think it just needs compiling against a particular kernel against the Hero.

yup someone needs to do that for us asap
I had not seen Pulser missing a beat before
Well, it seems that we need a kernel 2.6.3x to make this work (check in psfreedom.com), since the bundled 2.6.2x uses the MSM_HSUSB driver instead of the MSM72K.
Does anyone know where to grab a kernel like that?
Sorry for sounding stupid, but what is this? lol
There's no such kernel right now. Devs are working on a .34 kernel, but I believe it's still far from complete.

its basically like rooting a ps3 means you can play 'backed up' games and such
i have tried bringing this up on the villain irc channel but all i got was abuse lol so gave up, and this is not the first time so no more donation to them guys from me and no more using there roms.

But, as someone suggested, could it be used as a recovery image with the compiled PSFreedom module?
cant we just port the img made for desire to hero ??
No, we can't, because what we need, the kernel, cannot be ported that way. What devs are trying right now is to port HTC Magic (Sapphire) .34 kernel.
Im so confused!
whats up with this spreadsheet, stating a Hero port is complete?
apperently i can't post links yet. But anyone know what im talkning about?
i read before, but what is the point?
I saw the answer, and yes it makes sense (i know alot about the ps3/psp scene since psp's release). But it doesnt strictly do anything unique at all on android phones does it?
I mean rooting does exactly the same, and the psjailbreak has no different/new features designed for android (i know it shouldnt, but...).
However, it is certainly nice to see a new kind of exploit available. (i remember the wonder of the gta exploit on psp all those years ago caused cries of delight and dark_alex to become a god, those who remember)
there is too type of htc hero some have the correct usb type some dont
I guess the best solution will be to port the exploit to the 2.6.2x kernel (seems more feasible than waiting to have a working 2.6.3x kernel).
Its updated!
hxxp://psfreedom.com/wiki/index.php?title=Device_compatibility_list
Now requires: 2.6.29 or higher Kernel
We should ask rom makers to help us out
On other note is someone trying to make it work for HTC hero

A question for the devs...

This question is related to the bootloader problem & the upcoming 2.1 update....Could SE change the way the bootloader works and negate the progress you've made?
Sony Ericsson Xperia X10
since its not yet cracked ...i dont think SE will change the bootloader ...
i am not a dev .. this is what i think... but may be the new 2.1 needs a new bootlaoder ... so anything can happen .. but dev are keeping an eye on SE will loads its stock rom.. that way we can find ways to use to crack bootloader
I hope i can borrow this thread ...
Here's my question: Is there a way to delete certain games and programs that i don't and never will use without rooting my device? I like it the way it is right now, i just don't like that apps i'm not using wasting available space

-Profit!
I don't see how am i going to profit if i double the work. My question: "is it possible", was meant in this way: is there an app that allows doing this without rooting?
No, the default apps which came with the phone are located in a place which you can only reach when you have root access

oh well ... can i ask which is the easiest way to root my device then?

One click root method, you literally have to install the .apk then click root. After you remove the programs you don't want, then click unroot. Doesn't get much easier than that
IS this one click method universal or specific from phone to phone? i am asking for my X8. There isn't a thread about this phone yet and because it is part of the same model group i'm asking here.
what?
What is horrible, the devs are days without saying anything about the breaking of the bootloader, we will do with the 10 x?, I begin to think that it is time to change by a HTC
you are the best, I encourage all devs, is that you can with this, I encourage and give them strong these of SE, thanks!

[DEV] Bootloader different approach

Hey Guys,
I have a wild idea and wanted to share the idea.
I was looking through quite a lot of bootloaders and I think we can use the wildfire bootloader and flash it on to our device. The thing is we might be able to intercept SEUS update and swap the wildfire bootloader into our device. I know what you are thinking how could the wildfire bootloader be any good to us? Well the thing it is compiled in ARMv6 as well as there still is the chance the configuration for the bootloader is stored onto flash. most bootloaders on ARM devices are configured via an JTAG board and create a configuration within the flash above bootloader code. usually this is exactly the same jump on all arm bootloaders. Developers later pull the first 1 MB or 2 MB of the nand and make this the bootloader image. which include configuration as well as the bootloader itself.
The trick would be to only flash bootloader from wildfire and leave configuration alone hoping it does the same jump to configuration as the seus does (which in fact is most likely)
So once the wildfire bootloader is ported and SE configuration is in there I think we should be able to flash it. The only thing that still could prevent is that bootloader is also checking if the new bootloader is signed by SE.
What do you guys think of this approach?
Im not a pro on Modding but i think it may work.
flashing only the boot loader will be a dificult thing.
and you may want to try to crack a sign... (yes it seems strange)
but think with me if you could make a clone of the SE sertificates and put it on the wild fire boot loader
you have a crackerd boot loader
BTW
Good luck.

i don't think wildfire got a s1 bootloader right?
can't, I read in the x10 thread that this method will not work because the SE bootloader has its own security code(that's what they want to crack). Basically if you swap the wildfire bootloader, the phone won't boot up because it will reject the code.
Geohot has bought an x10 a few days ago to crack the bootloader (I think)... so maybe it can provide useful information if he manages it.
wow... great... idea!
Let's do that!
Let's flash booloader from MSM7225 chipset without SAKE enabled, to MSM7227 chipset with SAKE enabled chipset. Lets burn our chipsets ... Who is with me? Come on guys!

damn i didnt check that you are actually right. I thought both were the same chipset
//Delete if irrelevant
I somehow noticed that ZTE Blade has almost the same configuration with X10 mini pro...
Cpu: Qualcomm msm 7227 with ARM1136EJ-S cpu core on both devices
Adreno 200 graphics on both devices...
and many other similarities between them...
Info found on pdadb. net
Perhaps you could experiment with that...

Yup, but he won't get sued because of hacking the phone. It's legal to mod your phone where he lived (United States) And beside with donations of his loyal fan, he had managed to put Sony at bay for now.

Someone has tried with data interrogation? Some CPU's check security codes a bit at a time. (RFID is notorious for this) You feed the possible code to them changing a bit at a time checking which clock cycle the CPU stops checking at thus which bit is wrong. Toggle the bit and repeat until you have the code.

I am sorry to resurrect this post, but I would really like to ask one small question. Has the bootloader been cracked?
It's been a while since I came here, and now I see true dual touch, and I wonder, has it been cracked?
From what I understand, we have custom ROMs, OC and undervolting possibility and now dual touch. Is there anything we can't do with this phone?
Thanks all for your help.

The bootloader has not been cracked, but it has been bypassed. There is now a method to boot a 2nd kernel over the running one. But as far as I can tell, the devs are having trouble locating the root partition. (correct me if I am wrong)
+1 thank for the information. Well I still hope that someone is able to get the bootloader cracked, but at least this way some cool things came for the phone.

[Q] Sony tablet s custom Roms ?

Will ther b Customs roms for the Sony tab s. ... In hw much tym will b available to us .. ?
first we will need custom recovery like CWM to flash the roms, and know if we can flash custom kernel to unlock the full potential of the beast.
Or there should be devs that make custom roms that we can flash trough pc but even than it is gonna take a while
Don't hold your breath
You may have rooted the sony but there is noone interested in making a custom rom cos there just isnt enough sonys s tablets out there.
Esp as ICS upgrade round the corner so why bother working on a HC ROM

Challenge to developers

This is an open challenge for all developers.
1) They cannot make a custom kernel in FTF format.
2) They cannot unlock the boot-loader in an unofficial way only through software.

You challenge devs?????
I have answers.
1. FTFs are actually from pc companion/sony dev website. They are signed by Sony and we can't modify it.
2. Well, the software is made that way that without an unlock key, you can't unlock the bootloader.
Anyone is free to add on to my answer.
If devs can't do it, why not you be the revolution for sony devices and create what you asked?

First FTF is just zip archive used by FlashTool,SIN files are signed by Sony with private key and they cant be modified.
Second Bootloader hashes IMEI with PUBLIC KEY,with is then bootloader unlock key.Thats why you need to enter IMEI on Sonys site.

1. It is way easier to copy a flashable .zip into a phone flash via cwm than to go through the hassle of installing flashtool & loads of drivers (which doesn't work on Windows 8, BTW) to flash a ftf.
2. I challenge you to break the encryption of your favourite credit card company's payment service. This is similar to breaking the encryption (128bit ??) that Sony has put into its bootloader signing mechanism.

YOU CAN DO THAT?
Their something maybe now can't do, but no one promise it can't begin in the future, all about the time!
And I think this thread is useless cause your what challenge to the developers is just showing you didn't respect them with their hard work!
I apologize for anything I did cause I'm just showing my idea
This thread is useless !!
why challange DEVS ??
NO kind of sense this !
Complete agree bro @Pandemic
It's no-sense to challenge devs !
You were able to modify/create ftf on 2010 phones (something was unsigned I think)
Bootloader could be unlocked without key or being allowed to unlock on 2011 phones (by a hardware hack with some cables)

Well First of all I am extremely sorry for hurting all of you.
Secondly, The idea behind is that I bought Xperia SOLA from a giant store in my country. The box had written VodaFone over my SOLA packing. I asked the shopkeeper and he told me your Phone will be perfectly fine with local sim cards. I came home used SOLA for a couple of weeks and hell yeah, It was ****ing slow. I couldn't believe what I have bought. Then i went to XDA for a custom rom and guess what my bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked the official way though all sims and network operators are working. Now I started searching for ROMS for LBL and coudn't find the one that fast and stable at the same time. Out of desperation, I challenged the great developers to atleast make a FTF custom kernel for me that is impossible for now. Accept my apologies every body.

Good you apologized mate!
Our devs work so damn hard each and every day just to make our phones work perfectly. Thats no way one can challenge them.
I dont know wether i should be talking about this or not because i am not a dev or anybody, but, You respect them and you get respected back! Thats the one thing i have learnt from XDA!
There is no need to challenge a dev, if they dont didnt do what you are asking is because its not possible or its very hard to do. The devs here work everyday to give us great releases, you shouldn`t make this kind of thread challenging theme, i think its useless.
But anyway, you can use custom roms, but not kernel. You can root your device and get some speed and battery. It takes time but thats why xda is here, everybody learn a lot here and use lots of stuff in config and so on. So read, learn and try...

Its not the issue with the ROM's..... its the device itself which has very low RAM.....
I know many other devices with 512 RAM working great but these NovaThor devices have some issues I guess.
Very True
I might be selling my SOLA if there is no announcement for KITKAT for it in coming few months.
This is downright ridiculous.
