from your screenshot, it's abl.img , you could still check xbl.img as well
(08-07-2021, 10:26 AM)X3non(07-07-2021, 09:14 PM)Abdelrahman Esam Those are like 300kb for abl.img and 3mb for xbl. ...
thats good enough, at least it's not 0 bytes
(08-07-2021, 03:16 PM)Abdelrahman Esam Yeah but I'm saying this because I didn't find any fastboot commands using strings. I found here: https://github.com/Magpol/Android-Nokia3-HMD someone who extracted some hidden oem commands from the official firmware but that's another device. Idk if that's different from full OTA and Source code but we have both and I'm sure there's a way. I thought that passing through adb sideload would be enough
(09-07-2021, 12:43 PM)X3non zip and upload both files i.e abl and xbl
(09-07-2021, 04:27 PM)Abdelrahman Esam I used adb shell to check them inside my phone and they are different, abl_a - abl_b and xbl_a - xbl_b or maybe they are the same just for different partitions
(10-07-2021, 10:10 AM)X3non same partitions, different slots ; see https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/ab for more info about A/B slots
anyways, i found nothing of interest within the two files
(11-07-2021, 02:53 AM)Abdelrahman Esam Looks like the only way is a signed vbmeta inside a signed OTA to shove it down the bootloader's throat and I think this should be a new universal way of at least getting root on any device with a public source code like this one. I insist on trying it but I have to learn more first
