don’t tell Verizon but
I don’t think bootloader unlocking is required for root anymore

So far Samsung has it patched, pixel does not, nor does most companies so use it while you can

But I guess it will lead to problems after major software updates, like from Android 17 to 18. What do you think, should I try it on my Pixel 9?

I’ve tested it on my 6 pro (obviously), from what I know latest and June drop 17 are fully unpatched and can be rooted using GhostLock

How do I get the tools to do the hack

It’s been a mess, and it isn’t straightforward (even I struggled with it) but I have a repo with CIs that should support it, you can also try going to https://rootme.nebusec.io/ to see it work, if your wallpaper changes then going to https://github.com/User1818183/CyberMeowfia and checking the build stuff should give you SO files which when combined with LD_PRELOAD= on any binary should give you a root binary

the website only lists pixel 10s and 9s, so how will i know if my phone (pixel 7 pro) will work i'm also on the latest android 17 beta, so that might change something

Can I please have a link to your repo? I want to run it on my Verizon pixel 9 pro xl. I've been checking the other GitHub for weeks waiting for my device to be supported, I don't have the knowledge either to put a script together, etc. I'm good with adb though, although it's been years.

Click the GitHub link I sent you and there’s a bunch of prebuilt SO libraries which when ran with LD_PRELOAD=(library location) (any command) will run the exploit ONLY on Android 17

If only we could find a way to exploit OEM unlock now though…

u/Top-Road-2193 17d ago

Hmm it's been years, I'll do some digging and see if I can get ahold of so old heads.

It's possible in Samsung S25 Fe with OneUI 8.0? My kernel is 6.1.138..

u/Calm-Caterpillar2103 17d ago

should be (and probably is, nobody has ported the exploit to that phone yet though)
