Hey, we've all heard about Dirty Cow privilege escalation vulnerability. I was wondering, if any of Oneplus3 community members tried it on our beloved phone. If so it would be very informative to write your experiences.
IMHO, creating online page, which helps fellow android users to root their phones with this vulnerability would be a great idea
New kernels will have a fix for it so it wouldn't make sense if somebody would do it... For example, latest ElementalX Kernel is protected from Dirty Cow.
what about stock? Most of people root stock 1st dont they?

Hello Guys,
I wanted to take a moment of your times to ask a very simple question. I have done a lot of reading here, but there is just simply too much information here to be 100% certain about things. So, I wanted to avail your expert knowledge to find out the best Root Method and best ROM for my needs. I will list them below, so that you guys may make some advice to me:
Root Requirements:
I am looking for a full Root (NAND included) on Android 2.2, along with Recovery to flash custom ROMs. I will be interested in backing up as well, more specifically NAND backup, however, I do not know much about its full use or how to do it and what it restores and etc.
Information (what I am on right now):
Firmware version: 2.1
Build number: 1.47.651.1 CL195459 release-keys
Software number: 1.47.651.1
ROM Requirements:
I am basically looking for the LATEST, MOST STABLE, OFFICIAL ROM for Froyo with the latest HTC Updates, along with Sense. All that of course, with full-root, if possible. So the closest thing to the official update from HTC with full root access basically and minimal modifications.
Additionally desired:
Being able to delete or uninstall the apps that I don't want, and the Camera updates to beat the 30 fps limitation.
Sorry for sounding too demanding guys, but I am merely requesting for your guidance to point me in the right direction/confirm some of the things that I have read. Please treat me as an extreme Noob as well.
I thank you for all your patience and look forward to your responses. Thank you and have a nice day.

Sorry Sir. Mods, can you move this thread please? Thank you... sorry guys!
Not trying to flame or anything but search and you shall find, im pretty sure the root method you should use has root ota 1.47 in the name. Also roms are personal preferences. Once you get rooted try them all and see what you like best that's part of the fun. Good luck
Use Simpleroot

Flash SteelH's rooted stock Froyo rom with Netarchy latest kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743781
Also wrong section, post in QA next time
As every one else suggests, simple root ota edition & amon ra's recovery, which is an option in simple root is a good start, as far as roms you really need to just flash a few for yourself to see which flavor you prefer, go get you something like myback up pro or titanium once your rooted, if your concerned about your apps/setup. There are several good stock roms out there to try...myself, I love me some evio, but it's all a matter of personal preference, trial & error, you gotta try out a few to see what really works for ya...
Sent from my phone.
When deciding what ROM, you can look at my sig for comparison charts of what features each ROM has. To get fps unlock you need to have a custom kernel, some ROMs have it included while others give download links to kernels that work for their ROM. Check out the chart and if you have any questions just post on my thread(also linked in my sig).
I'm seeing people posting ROMs and Kernels and the like...does that mean root is stable enough now to warrant trying it out? I'm coming from the Vibrant, which was pretty much unbrickable, and I'm worried about bricking this glorious device. Let me know if root is stable and let me know which root to go with (Zedomax?). Thanks!

yep its stable.
i recommend flashing a rooted kernel, then flashing back to stock kernel and keep root. you will lose cwm but that will get fixed down the road.
Right now all I really care about is being able to use Titanium Backup...as long as I can do that I'm good. Any kernel more stable than others that you'd recommend?

Hi all,
I've been browsing this forum a while now, and I've used the search alot, but can't really find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to temp root my phone so that I can overclock it using SetCPU. I'm not going for perm root yet, since I don't have ANY experience with it and I don't have a spare phone (and kinda need this for my internship).
I'm using stock Desire Z with Android 2.3.3. I already tried visionary+, but this doesn't work. So is there any way (like the visionary app) to temp root my phone so that SetCPU will work?
Thnx
Yes, there is temp root, but no you won't be able to overclock. Just installing SetCPU doesn't enable it. Your clock speed will be limited because you'll still be operating on the stock kernel.
If you're interested in rooting, read through the HTC Vision Wiki, and do your research. This will give you the info and steps necessary to downgrade, root, and re-upgrade to pre-rooted 2.3. At this point, you'll be able to install a custom ROM (and subsequently a custom kernel) that will allow you to OC to your heart's content.
Just do your research before you try anything, and ask questions about confusing steps BEFORE you begin. If you take your time and pay attention to what you're doing, there is a very low chance that you'll brick your device. Don't be worried about it.
I thought I read somewhere that overclocking to 1GHz was possible with a stock system? Or is that info outdated?
And thanks for the quick reply

Both rooted stock 2.2 and pre-rooted 2.3 ROMs I have can't be overclocked above 806mhz.
FWIW overclocking the stock ROM to 1ghz will still give you slower performance than just running CM7 at 800mhz.
Thnx for answers.
You actually answered my next question aswell, because I did want to use a custom ROM at some point and have been looking for a build that looks like a standard Android build, withouth HTC/Samsung/whatever own skin on top of it, and CM7 does look pretty nice.
But, to be able to flash a custom ROM, you need to do a perma rooot
I know. And I already said in my first post that I dont want to perma root YET
But now that I know that I need a diff kernel in order to OC, perma root is comming closer and closer..

Yes CM7 is AOSP-based (stock), but has lots of nice improvements.
If you want reallly stock android, there are other builds that have no extras. I'd recommend cm7 though, its very nice.
Nobody has the guts to develop a new kernel for the latest firmware, 4.4.2 KitKat?!! This phone needs a stable kernel to achieve its potential. If you are working at something, please post here your work and are a few people happy to help with testing. Come on, guys, make a better kernel!

Please, tell me where did you saw the kernel source code for Android 4.4.2 because I want to download ...
I didn't... But I know a guy (Franco) that a few years ago made a kernel for LG Optimus One without the source. The best kernel I ever installed! And that little LG O1 run better then that a lot of smartphones today.

Hi, yes you're right, you can make a kernel without it's source, but its nearly impossible on a device with so many closed-source-drivers usw. . Also you need to know very much about the way our phone works, many details usw.
I would simply say, noone can Reverse Engineer the P6-Kernel, and those who can will not do this for a decive with such a little community
EDIT:
The only possibility to create a working kernel would to try porting a kernel from the P7-Sources
But anyone ask nicelly for that source code?

*I would also like to know the opinions of other testers and devs for this question.
Nobody is going to help you with this question because the point is for you to try the rom yourself. Do some research, bite the bullet and start flashing any and every rom until you find one that suites your needs.
Oh, I think some people might be willing to help, the problem is, your question is to nebulous. You need to give more information.
First the easy stuff.
Newest? Look at the dates of the threads or go to the main thread on ROMs, it usually lists the latest updates. Unless you are taking about the newest version of android (like Lollipop). In that case, look for a higher number. Kit Kat is 4.4,: Lollipop is 5.0
Most Stable? Get a rooted version of rooted Kit Kat stock. It was made specifically for the phone and will likely be most stable
Best? I want slimport out, USB otg, working Bluetooth, and stable. I went with a debloated version of rooted stock (10r version). That is currently the "best" for me. You might want speed, even less bloat, more customization, etc. Your best is going to be different than others.
Give us more details and people can help you. A blanket request for "best" is not enough to go by.
Good luck!
You're not going to get more stable than stock based. I'd be using that if I didn't care about open source and possible spying. Right now I've got PACMAN 4.4.4 without GAPPS with minor issues I can live with but am getting tired of. Might try Carbon next or something.
Avoid anything 5.0 based for now, as it really doesn't feel ready yet.

Rooting can be daunting if you are not confident and knowledgeable about modding your phone. As always, there is a risk when installing custom ROMs.
But with success, the G3 rocks! Good luck!
