Anyone tried out if this device supports the usage of a user settable root of trust? - Nokia 8.3 5G (8V 5G UW) Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi everyone,
The device sources were released on the nokia page but as I can see, some of you already unlocked its bootloader.
Has anyone out there tried if this device supports to set a user settable root of trust?

[Q] Finding source code for specific functions

Hi,
I'm currently in the process of developing a custom ROM for my Nexus 7, where I'll be editing the HCE functionality to allow me to set my own Application ID.
My main question was, after downloading the Android source onto my machine, I was wondering where I can find the source code for NFC/HCE inside the Android directory?
Any help is appreciated!
Jay
Bump - if anyone has any info i'd appreciate it !

You need to download the nfc driver from google developer site
Here for your nexus 7 you can find it:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers

Hi Antonio, thanks for the reply!
So you're saying for the NFC code specifically in the Nexus 7 (I'm using FLO atm) I should go fishing in the driver code, not the base Android code?
Thanks again

Into the android code there isn't any code device, only if included device config and vendor files(that are into the google sites) and the kernel source

"contemporary" device specific code

I am new with the rom development and I would like to know if there is a way to create device specific code (mostly the device tree and the proprietary blobs) depending on the desired android sdk version. To be more specific, my device (Huawei P8 Lite) will not get an official nougat update and I would like to know the prerequisites and a good guide to follow, in order to create (and contribute to others - currently active devs) device specific code for my phone, since there is no open source for this phone.
Thanks in advance.
Many might think that this could be duplicate, but I haven't seen any question regarding the connection of the device tree and the android version ...

COmpiling for custom ROM

Hello all,
I have a question regarding compiling the android source. This is mostly a general question that can be applied to any device ; however, the device I will be using is the Ascend Mate 7.
I recently got an old Ascend Mate 7 from a friend that I can do what ever with. So, I figured I would try to build Android from source and then flash it to the device.
I have already downloaded the source code. I am about to build the source for the Ascend Mate 7. Then, I found out that I might need to know the Device tree? There seems to be some conflicting information regarding this. Using google's guide, all I need to know is the code name for the device and there we go. We can compile the source! (Woot!)
On the other hand, other guides state that I need to download the device identity such as the tree, vendor, and kernel and include this in the source. (See this guide on xda website: https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763) In another guide, I need to setup the jack server? (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-build-android-roms-on-ubuntu-16-04)
So which is it? Should I just follow Google's guide or do I really need to know the device identity? If the latter, How do I search for the device tree, vendor, and kernel? More importantly, what are these and how do they work in relation to the Android source?
Also, I believe I will need manufacturer drivers for my phone to operate the peripherals. How do I download this? This might be a stretch but can't I get those files from the Mate 7?
Any thoughts?

Adding proper SU to AOSP

Hi all,
I'm trying to solve this but I didn't find proper solution. I have Android 9 SDK for specific SoC vendor (Amlogic, but this is not important now - It's basically AOSP).
What I'm trying to implement into my SDK is proper root access with su daemon running and all things that come with su.
I looked at LineageOS implementation but it seems that it's too deeply implemented into it's sources now (such as using lineageos SettingsProvider etc). Does anyone know easier solution for achieving this?
Thanx,

moding grapheneOS

Hello, just installed graphene OS and want to make some mods to it. All I want to do is to delete some apps(like phone, messages) and add some, so it will be already installed after I flash the OS to phone.All tutorials I can find about it are really old. Is there any up to date information about modifying the android os ? what tools do I need? Also is it hard to add "wipe code setting" to the os ? I've seen it on few custom ROMs
GrapheneOS has a github repository that you are open to use. Don't expect the original developer to implement any changes that may alter the core purpose of the ROM: Security and Privacy.
