[Q] How do I build binary compatible system apks for JRO03C? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Please note that this question is purely academic in nature. My phone is not broken, and all the features I need are enabled. I just want to know how to make similar changes myself (see below).
Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum. I was going to post this in the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus Development forum, but the site warned me that asking questions in that forum was against the rules (OK, I won't post my question there)!
I have a "toro" (Samsung Galaxy Nexus for VzW with LTE/CDMA).
Yesterday, I repo synced my AOSP source to bring it up to date. My phone is running an almost stock "maguro" (rooted) JRO03O from https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/mysid-jro03o-factory-f17426e6.tgz .
Then I sourced build/envsetup.sh and selected full_toro-user (yes, "user", not "userdebug" ) with the lunch menu.
I then made what I thought was a clever patch to packages/apps/Settings/src/com/android/settings/TetherSettings.java where I added a few constants and a boolean function called isProvisioningAllowed() that is called by a now modified boolean function isProvisioningNeeded(). Essentially, isProvisioningNeeded() now checks to see if the Android owner allows his carrier to limit tethering to provisioned users (before checking to see if the carrier requires provisioning). As you may have guessed, using my patch, the default setting is now that the carrier is not allowed by the Android owner to require provisioning from the user.
For anyone curious, here is the .diff for my patch for TetherSettings.java (Java is not a programming language that I "know", but I can figure out most of the syntax from the existing code - so I may have crappy code) :

Then I built the entire tree. Next, I backed up "Settings.apk" and "Settings.odex" from my /system/app directory on my phone. Also, I remounted /system as r/w. I then dropped in the new "Settings.apk" and "Settings.odex" from my custom build, and set the owner.group to root.root (on both) and permissions to 644 (on both). I remounted /system as r/o again.
Even with a cold boot, the "Settings" menu crashes when launched (with my "Settings.apk" and "Settings.odex" in place).
I restored my backups for those two system files, and rebooted again (which fixed my Settings menu/app). I then downloaded somebody else's fixed "framework-res.apk" and deleted "SPG.apk". While this accomplishes one goal (no carrier restrictions on Google Android native tethering), it does not help me learn how to do this myself.
I want to be able to tweak the AOSP source on the fly, and produce binaries that are compatible with my ROM.
So my problem basically breaks down to the following 4 sub-questions:
1) Can anyone tell me why my customized "Settings.apk" and "Settings.odex" crash when "Settings" is launched?
2) Did I make a change that would break binary compatibility (I tried not to)?
3) Or is it because the current version of AOSP builds binaries for 4.1.2 (JZO54K) instead of for 4.1.1 (JRO03O)?
4) How do I build AOSP for an older tag anyway (like 4.1.1_r1)?

[Q] root_plug

Not sure if this means anything, just throwing it out there, but i was going through file for froyo on the evo, original file name "supersonic-2.6.32.15-g746f4f0.tar" and found a file named root_plug-notepad, now i'm only guessing, but is this how they are blocking us from being able to root our device, or am i just guessing outta my arse.
on the notepad the full content is:

[R&D] Rooting N910A/N910V Models

Welcome​First I have to ask that everyone please follow the rules when posting in here.​The last thread was shut down due to people getting off topic so let's stay on track here, if you have a question that you'd like to ask and are unsure if it belongs here then simply PM me and I'll help. In order to get things going I've added a simple FAQ below for people who may not be up to speed.​
Q: What's needed to root the N910A/N910V?
A: A kernel exploit and an Android OS exploit.
Q: What's the current status?
A: We have a kernel exploit that will work for us and the method to implement it. Our next goal is to apply an Android exploit which will grant us System UID in order to apply our kernel exploit and write root.
Q: What exploit are we using for the kernel side?
A. The exploit will be the work of @zxz0O0 and is based off of CVE-2014-4322. This is confirmed NOT patched by Samsung.
Q: What exploit are we using for Android side?
A. Current target is CVE-2015-1474. We've explored a previous exploit which has proven to work for the Sony Z3 (CVE-2014-7911), but unfortunately Samsung fixed this prior to releasing our devices.
Current Focus - Creating an APK that will exploit CVE-2015-1474 to elevate us to System UID. This is where we are at this current time. We will need a crafty Dev to come up with such APK. I am a novice when it comes to scripting and exploiting but in my free time I've been soaking up as much information as I possibly can to help in the future.

To clarify, CVE-2014-4322 is NOT patched in ANY baseband version on our devices. CVE-2014-7911 is the patched.

Its not obfuscated if you think about file called "main"! It is 7z archive but removed first 2 bytes "7z" or hex "377A", just simple open "main" file with hex editor and append 2 bytes 37 7A to the start of the file and save them! It is password protected 7z archive and you must research for password in asembly if you think to open them with 7z I stil have no idea what is purpose of these "main" file (malware?) when there is another one "main" file (tar.gz) which is extracted when you execute file "a", but I know thats a two diferent "main" files!

From @idler1984 , here's the explanation of the 'a' and 'main' files. HERE.

Not sure how to prove something that isn't there... hard to prove a negative. APK is claiming not vulnerable even with the apparent absence of checkAndGetTcObjectClass in the firmware. Someone much smarter than me can attempt to find out why My bet is on @android-DEP ... see post above regarding ServiceExploitActivity.java.

It's been confirmed by me that exploit CVE-2014-7911 has been patched in the latest OTA (NK3 on AT&T) and I believe @zxz0O0 confirmed it on the earlier baseband too. If you're in doubt and you're running the earlier build, just go to system/framework/core.odex and you'll find the function is located there...
Now if you're just skimming through here let me catch everyone up to speed here;​
At this point in order to achieve root for our devices we will need a combination of exploits. There are a ton of CVE's being thrown and I can see why people are getting confused so I'll try to make it easier to understand. I'll break it down by CVE #.
CVE-2014-7911 - Patched so it doesn't matter. Android OS exploit to gain System UID. Not Root
CVE-2014-8609 - Android OS exploit. Possibly our next venture for gaining System UID, I've been told otherwise. Another vulnerability exists that may be easier. CVE-2015-1474
CVE-2014-4322 - Kernel exploit. Un-patched. Used to get Root while in System status.
So we need an exploit to get us System status and from there we pretty much have CVE-2014-4322 exploit to get Root from there.
Now, you may have read about Root solutions such as geifroot & 2014-79xx but forget about them because they are all based on Team Keen's exploit of CVE-2014-7911 which we confirmed has been backported and patched from day 1 on our devices. So in order to proceed we need a new exploit to get System status first... that vulnerability may be 2015-1474....
ZPaul2Fresh8, thanks for this write up. Finally someone who has understood the situation. I'm not really experienced in Java but I believe CVE-2014-8609 will not be useful. This exploit is for broadcasting actions to apps (e.g. dialing), not executing shell commands or binaries.

I understand, but what are the possible Broadcasts at our disposal? Whatever broadcast we send will be of System UID so maybe we can find something if we look hard enough?
I have Liang Chen (Team Keen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pwn2Own#Contest_2014)) looking into CVE-2014-8609 to see if we can achieve System UID.

Guys, CVE-2014-4322 root exploit from retme7 is not working, it need a lot of modifications, I am working on this 3 days and I am on 90 percent of luck, I am now stuck with this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58460530&postcount=1171
If you have idea for how I can change app_id than I will get it working and will share source with you!

Making CVE-2014-4322 a universal one would be quite challenging since it provides write-anywhere without read. It is almost impossible to avoid hard coded offsets. It would be great if there is another read and write anywhere flaw which requires system priv.

Okay I decided to try to invoke the android terminal intent to open a new terminal window as a system user. it doesn't work for me but other people on preOTA may be able to get it to work. I disabled the factory reset crap so don't worry about accidently factory resetting your device (like I did to my tablet before I disabled them). You will need to install the android terminal emulator app from the play store prior to opening this app and clicking the button. if you get a terminal window open type whoami and post a screenshot please. If not a simple post saying it doesn't work is fine.

You can decompile settings.apk and search in src/com/android/settings/accounts/AddAccountSettings.smali to see if it is patched or not.

Hi, I have implemented terminal emulator internaly into CVE-2014-8609.apk but from some unknown reasons it fail to start when I press "open terminal" button, I have spent 2 hours with this and I am lazy to debug more, sorry, try to decompile mine apk and fix it! Interesting thing I can start internal terminal emulator by command: "am start -n com.example.android.samplesync/jackpal.androidterm.Term", but clicking on button it no want to start

I don't understand it. I'm passing the intent the same way the sms intent and format interested t is passed back to the pending intent. It's just not working. I'm trying to make a service to hand it off to withing the app so that once it's intent is hit I can keep it alive in the background service, and then pull it back into the foreground to use it. In theory this should work even though the originating pending intent is killed shortly after the button press.

Yes strange, when I click on "open terminal" it open settings, another clicks doing nothing until I kill app and lunch again, strange. Maybe we need to look into terminal emulator for this? I have no time now, but you can try to open another app?
It open com.google.android.c2dm.intent sucesfully but no terminal emulator, I don't know why.

Your correct, I wonder if terminal emulator has been patched to prevent the broadAnywhere bug from launching it? If so then we need to find another terminal emulator that allows broadAnywhere to launch it with intents. Unless someone has time to search the terminal emulators source to figure out how it's been patched to prevent it..

This brings the next question.. An educated guess as to whether this will work with lollipop?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I would be curious about this also, but only after root is out for pre-Lollipop. The description says through 5.0, which sounds to me like 5.0 is vulnerable but who knows if 5.0.1 or 5.0.2 is. Also Samsung, as we've seen recently with the root that works on other phones using those two CVEs not working on our phones, will backport fixes. I don't know how much Samsung is still tweaking their Lollipop update, but since this seems like a small fix, my money would be on it being fixed in the Samsung Lollipop update.
Btw I've been trying to upload the contents of system.img.ext4 from the AT&T and Verizon tar md5 files to Google Drive for easy reference but it keeps timing out and I don't want to post something missing random files. I'll try with a specialized uploader tool later.
Also CVE-2015-1474 was updated on the 17th to say that it's network exploitable(!) and I guess they gave it a 10.0 score, the highest! This seems to be more serious than that last "worst android bug ever" recently used for root in the last year.
I sure hope whatever tool that gives root that comes out also applies a fix for this. I wouldn't want to walk around with it if I could help it.
So after a bunch of useless posts basically asking to confirm this or thanking that..at least we can count on qcom to brighten our day...

Would still require 1 or 2 additional vulns to exploit. Not so easy to get camera group in modern Android
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Correct me if I am wrong but camera group should actually be rather easy to take advantage of especially in modern Android. In June this last year the play store rolled out an update that groups all applications for security permissions, so in theory, any app in this group can be used to exploit the vulnerability found. Which means all apps that take picture or record audio are on the table as they are all lumped in together with the camera group.
Basic example of what apps like this can do now that they are grouped.
Camera/Microphone: An app that has permission to take pictures and videos (for example, a camera app) can now gain the permission to record audio. The app could listen to you when you use other apps or when your device’s screen is off.
If this is true than someone much smarter than me should have a lot to fool around with.

Ok I will. These "permission groups" from the play store have nothing to do with this. We are talking about a single android permission (android.permission.CAMERA) and a single linux group ("camera').
In 5.0, and many 4.x devices (i dont think it was all, it might have been all, i just dont care to find my notes, 10hr trip to take son to Dr and back, just got home and freaking tired) the linux group "camera" used in android was severed from the camera permission, declaring this permission does not put your user (app) into the camera group.
Simple test,
adb shell grep -A 10 -B 10 camera /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
On blackphone (4.4.x), HTC Desire 510 (4.4.x) MotoX 2014 (5.0.x), the above command returned nothing.
One older devices, say 4.2.2 you would get teh following as the output:
<permission name="android.permission.CAMERA" >
<group gid="camera" />
</permission>
This means apps that are granded the permission, are put into the group "camera".
See:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/android-4.2.2_r1/data/etc/platform.xml
vs
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/android-4.4.2_r1/data/etc/platform.xml
What does this mean? You cant directly talk to what you need to to exploit those camera vulns, you would need to exploit mediaserver, or escalate to system first (Which means squat, if you are system you have 100 ways to root that are easier than these camera bugs). Also must not forget about SEAndroid, might put a snag into it as well, but like ive said I just saw these today, and have been home for a whole 10minutes so far today.

Depends on whether R.dimen.appear_y_translation_start is part of your module, or part of hooked package.
If it is part of hooked package resources you need to get it within hooked package context using proper identifier;
you cannot use identifier of resource you put in your module resources because it's completely different resource with different ID.
Example:
Code:
int resId = ctx.getResources().getIdentifier("appear_y_translation_start", "dimen", lpparam.packageName);
mStartTranslation = ctx.getResources().getDimensionPixelOffset(resId) * translationScaleFactor;
If this resource is part of your xposed module package, then you have to create package context using original context so you can get your module resources
which inherit proper display metrics from original package resources.
Code:
Context moduleContext = ctx.createPackageContext(myModulePackageName, Context.CONTEXT_IGNORE_SECURITY);
mStartTranslation = moduleContext.getResources().getDimensionPixelOffset(R.dimen.appear_y_translation_start) * translationScaleFactor;

Thanks, that works very well. Can you please also explain to me how I can retrieve value of attribute resources (I think that's what they are called) from the hooked package resources?
Code:
android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorSecondary"
I want to get this colour (as used in XML) so that I can do it in code
Code:
mEmergencyButton.setTextColor(color)
In case someone is looking for a solution to this
Code:
TypedValue outValue = new TypedValue();
mContext.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.textColorSecondary, outValue, true);
int[] textSizeAttr = new int[] {android.R.attr.textColorSecondary};
TypedArray a = context.obtainStyledAttributes(outValue.data, textSizeAttr);
int textColor = a.getColor(0, -1);
a.recycle();
mEmergencyButton.setTextColor(textColor);
mContext.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.selectableItemBackground, outValue, true);
mEmergencyButton.setBackgroundResource(outValue.resourceId);

[GENERAL KNOWLEDGE]View files/resources a 3rd party app read/writes to

Hello all,
Just curious about some general knowledge (salute; reference: HIMYM) on whether or not it's possible to see what an app is doing (during installation, in the background, app initialization, and foreground usage)
It's not my own app in question so I understand physically seeing the code is out of the question; however I'm more concerned about what the app is doing and the files/directories it accesses, and whether or not there's a way for me to view these activities.
If you must know, the app in question is the Adidas Confirmed app as RootCloak (and various other apps) DO NOT WORK. I'm attempting to isolate the issue, and I'm fairly certain it has to do with an external resource (within the device; i.e. different partition, files, folders, etc.) that permanently marks the device 'rooted' during initial installation. Maybe if I can see exactly what the app reaches out to, I can then come up with a fix action.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
You could try to decompile this app, but it might not work very well if the app obfuscates the code http://decompileandroid.com/

This actually worked PERFECTLY. I was able to go inside the src and see exactly the commands the app calls for to check root.
If anyone is interested...I'm going to try a few things out, play with some variables and see if I can't allow the app access on my rooted device.

There is a similar file also in the src using a different language I've not yet been able to comprehend. I'm really new at this in case you couldn't already figure lol...is it possible to view my device's database where apps store variables? It may be possible the app is permanently storing the variable even after its removal so best case would be to start from a fresh ROM install. Just a theory.
The other language is generally irrelevant
Delete /data/data/<packagename>/ or clear app data normally, that will work, no need for a fresh install.
If you need help hooking this method, please quote me in a reply.

Building Gapps for Android 10.0

[/COLOR @razorloves I compiled my own unofficial LineageOS 17.0 for Marlin from your sources, but I don't have gapps compiled in. Is it possible to install gapps over the Lineage zip file? When I tried, it said that it thought I had Android 9, and it needed Android 10, so it wouldn't install.

I was able to easily delete some of the safety checks on the gapps install script. It ran the installation .zip, but nothing appeared differently when I booted into the ROM. I got the same result with every gapps package I have found so far. So far the only way I can get gapps then is this ROM where it's already built into it.

I was able to extract all of the opengapps files from one of their installers and attempt to push it to LOS17... I ended up with a continuous bootloop because of a priv-app permissions issue... which was weird because I added the permissions to the right files, but it still erred out.
If anyone has any bright ideas, I would love to contribute some of my server space to set up nightly builds of LOS17 (stock LOS17 works just fine), but I want see if there is a good way to add in gapps to the build first.

https://github.com/opengapps/aosp_build/blob/master/README.md
But would be ideal if razorloves could give us the relevant details on how to do build with mindthegapps.
For your issue on permissions, have you set the selinux contexts?

I haven't been able to mess with selinux yet... I'm waiting for a break so that I can sit and mess with my phone again.
I second the idea of getting the details to build with MTG. I did what the aosp build instructions said for opengapps. It acted like it pulled the repo down, but it isn't copying the APK's over to the final zip install. Maybe I am missing something.

For the apk issue, you need to make sure you have git lfs installed, and for each of the folders in vendor/opengapps/sources/ do a git lfs pull.
I made that mistake as well... Repo doesn't appear to apply the git lfs pull on its own. The files that you have are just text files with URLs to the files.

I did that too.... Something else is going on with my system then. I did a git lfs pull on each directory, and it looked like it pulled down the apps - the file sizes changed... I might just wipe my current opengapps directory, allocate a little more disk space, and re do that pull.
I am trying to build with MTG at the moment, despite the super vague readme.

I just re-read what you said about the final zip install, sorry i mis-read that. Did you create a file device/google/sailfish/device.mk and put the lines in? If so, they actually need to go into device/google/marlin/device-sailfish.mk. I did that mistake, and it didn't put anything into the final zip. You will get some other build errors that you have to work around after don't that change though... (Yes it's frustrating).
In any case, thanks for the link to the MTG readme. I'll have a go when I'm at home and see if I have any luck...

No worries. Even though i've got a marlin does it go under device-marlin.mk? That wouldn't make any sense...
For MTG I added this to my .repo/manifests/default.xml
Code:
<remote name="mtg" fetch="https://gitlab.com/MindTheGapps/" />
<project path="vendor/gapps" name="vendor_gapps" revision="qoppa" remote="mtg" />
And it is acting like it is syncing properly. Step 2 has got me a little bit confused... I am going to assume that it is similar to opengapps
Code:
$(call inherit-product, vendor/opengapps/build/opengapps-packages.mk)
line for device-marlin.mk, but just modified for MTG.
It'd be cool if this works. I'd love to have my own build of LOS working.

I've done the same change to the manifest. I would suggest though once you get it up and running, that you don't make the change directly to the default manifest, but rather put it into e.g. .repo/local_manifests/mindthegapps.xml. That way it won't get overwritten if the default manifest gets updated.
I had a build just complete with that change, but as it was practically built anyway, I'm trying from a clean build directory just to make sure it definitely builds! The only change in my case for sailfish is adding the line
Code:
$(call inherit-product, vendor/gapps/arm64/arm64-vendor.mk)
near the bottom of device/google/marlin/device-sailfish.mk. You'd do the same in the device/google/marlin/device-marlin.mk file.
If the build compiles successfully then I'll probably put together a start-to-finish guide on how to do this. I also want to do a "user" build that is signed, and see if it's possible to pass safety net without requiring magisk. But for now, my fingers are crossed that I just get a basic build done!

Been building for a couple weeks using razorloves' gapps then swtiched to shagbag913's gapps. Added the call inherit-product code to device/google/marlin/sailfish/device-lineage.mk but your way should work.
Everything has been working fine except for Android Auto which I think is a bigger GApps issue.
Can someone explain how to either properly install a pre-built gapps package for Android 10 and / or explain how to properly build gapps packages into a ROM (if such action is even legal)?
I followed the instructions from https://github.com/opengapps/aosp_build/blob/master/README.md and ended up getting build errors that I couldn't push through.
@razorloves, I would love your input since you have already accomplished this.
Hi,
I have written up a quick documentation on how to do this with MTG and my Google apps package.
Please take a look at it here.
My Google apps package(gavapps) may/may not work for your device, I have specifically fine-tuned it to work for a Google Pixel XL.
HOWEVER,
If you follow the instructions for the Mind The GApps, you will be able to compile a version of Android 10 with the Google play store.
For those who care, I was able to compile the most recent of LOS17 for Google Pixel XL with a couple of gapps pre-built.
Link is here
user build with release keys
I mentioned before I was going to attempt to do a build that would pass safety net without needing to install Magisk and use hiding modules. I haven't quite managed that, but thought I'd post details of the progress that I've made.
Note for the below, I have a Pixel, so my codename is always sailfish - replace with marlin for the Pixel XL. Also, follow the instructions above to include MindTheGapps (you need the Google services to do the SafetyNet check).
Now, importantly I found that the Eleven app didn't compile under a user build (it's fine in a userdebug build). If you find the same issue, best to remove it from the project by adding this to a local manifest, e.g. .repo/local_manifest/excluded-projects.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<!-- Does not compile in a user build -->
<remove-project name="LineageOS/android_packages_apps_Eleven" />
</manifest>
Follow instructions in this link to set up some build keys:
https://wiki.lineageos.org/signing_builds.html (the section Generating the keys). For convenience, the commands are pasted below (customize the subject):
Code:
subject='/C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Android/OU=Android/CN=Android/[email protected]'
mkdir ~/.android-certs
for x in releasekey platform shared media testkey; do \
./development/tools/make_key ~/.android-certs/$x "$subject"; \
done
Now for building, do a 'repo sync' and 'source build/envsetup.sh' as you normally would, but now it's time to apply a few patches.
Kernel command line patch:
https://gist.github.com/kirelagin/211af699bd321f9448d310502074bd9c
Or get the raw version of the patch directly here:
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/...e45f468cbefc3a9c571bd3d8b2a877/safetynet.diff
This patch needs to be applied to the kernel/google/marlin folder. Its purpose is to change a few flags in the command line to remove the fact that the bootloader is unlocked, etc.
Code:
cd kernel/google/marlin
git apply safetynet.diff
The below is not required now, a recent patch fixed this issue
Now normally, as the build files replace the device fingerprint with the fingerprint from stock, we would expect that doing e.g. in a shell in the rom "getprop | grep fingerprint" would return said fingerprint in all cases. However, I always found that one, 'ro.build.fingerprint' would always be the default Lineage build fingerprint. I couldn't find how to get that one in particular to be the same as the others, so I ended up doing something that isn't portable but works
Patch system/code/base/properties.cpp by applying one of the following patches (you must be within the system/code folder)

Simple, works, but needs to be changed per device, and won't ever be seen in the Lineage repo :silly:

Now, I have a script that does the steps of:
Sets up a user build
Builds the appropriate files used for a signed build
Signs the APKs
Creates an installable zip / OTA from the signed zips
Code:

echo "This script must be sourced."

./build/tools/releasetools/ota_from_target_files -k ~/.android-certs/releasekey --block $SIGNED_TARGET $SIGNED_OTA
It must be sourced (i.e. source do-build #or whatever you call the script). You can easily change some of the parameters above, e.g. sailfish to marlin.
So for my testing, after doing the above changes, I can get a basic integrity pass in Safety Net, but not a CTS profile pass. I tried using Magisk, and it passes Safety Net without the need for using any further prop tweaks (normally I would still need one of those). So at least that is a little bit of progress.
Hope that this is helpful to someone. And if anyone has any other insights as to what can be done to try and get a CTS profile match, let us all know!

It must be sourced (i.e. source do-build #or whatever you call the script). You can easily change some of the parameters above, e.g. sailfish to marlin.
So for my testing, after doing the above changes, I can get a basic integrity pass in Safety Net, but not a CTS profile pass. I tried using Magisk, and it passes Safety Net without the need for using any further prop tweaks (normally I would still need one of those). So at least that is a little bit of progress.
Hope that this is helpful to someone. And if anyone has any other insights as to what can be done to try and get a CTS profile match, let us all know!

So to my understanding, is that you've been able pass the basic integrity check, but not the ctsProfile, however, once you flash Magisk, it all sudden starts working w/o the MagiskProps module?? My goal for my builds of lineage is to completely get rid of Magisk as a whole, and have the apps I normally flash with Magisk pre-installed (just YouTube Vanced and Viper4android at the moment) and a few build.prop tweaks.
What I'm thinking for conquering this idea of yours is to copy the files that MagiskProps creates/modifies in it's module directory, and then have those files pushed automatically to the image when being built.
What do you think of that?

Hey, yes we have similar goals there. I'm hoping to build Lineage without the need for Magisk to pass SafetyNet including the CTS profile check, and add in my own selection of apps etc.
I have been looking at the code for Magisk, hoping to work out exactly what it does. I'm not so sure it will be as simple as copying files as you have said above, although I have toyed with that idea in my head. If you work out how to do that, certainly let us know.
Another idea I had was to see if Magisk can be compiled to act as it currently does but without including the su, busybox, and other binaries that would trip SafetyNet.
Edit: I'm also just trying to find specific things that Magisk does to aid hiding. For example, I found this in the hide_policy.cpp file:
Code:
static const char *prop_key[] =
{ "ro.boot.vbmeta.device_state", "ro.boot.verifiedbootstate", "ro.boot.flash.locked",
"ro.boot.veritymode", "ro.boot.warranty_bit", "ro.warranty_bit", "ro.debuggable",
"ro.secure", "ro.build.type", "ro.build.tags", "ro.build.selinux", nullptr };
static const char *prop_value[] =
{ "locked", "green", "1",
"enforcing", "0", "0", "0",
"1", "user", "release-keys", "0", nullptr };
void hide_sensitive_props() {
LOGI("hide_policy: Hiding sensitive props\n");
// Hide all sensitive props
for (int i = 0; prop_key[i]; ++i) {
auto value = getprop(prop_key[i]);
if (!value.empty() && value != prop_value[i])
setprop(prop_key[i], prop_value[i], false);
}
}
That is used to override some of the props, if they aren't empty and don't match the required values. In the case of my build, they all match the values above or are empty. So I'm still digging into the code to find out what else might be needed. I do know that SELinux is set to Enforcing (hence my patch in my previous post) as another example.

Hmm. I wonder if Magisk is using itself to check ctsProfile via root... It would make sense to me if it did.
Are you able to install Google Apps through the playstore (ie Google Calendar). When I had a failing ctsProfile, I wasn't able to install google calendar.
Eureka!

I believe the phrase is "Eureka!"
I erred before - when I went back to installing Magisk, of course it keeps modules installed, which resulted in the pass. It would have failed...
However, reading the props module read me said that the security_patch date had to match that of the fingerprint. So I ended the build/make/core/version_defaults.mk file so that PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH is 2019-10-06 as per this patch:
Code:
