Love to see my design is still used 😁❤️

No Android security patches have been released by Google this month, and according to sources, Android security patches will subsequently be released quarterly, with patches released monthly only for fatal vulnerabilities

OnePlus has also adjusted its bootloader unlocking policy, starting with devices shipped with ColorOS 16, which can no longer be unlocked directly, and the application for unlocking needs to meet the following conditions:
1.ColorOS 16 and above
2. No abnormalities or violations in the account
3. Non-government enterprise and carrier customized tablet or cell phone
4. Tablets or cell phones releases in mainland China.

It is uncertain what will happen to the unlocking policy outside of mainland China, and whether OPPO will further restrict OnePlus devices from unlocking the bootloader.

#bootloader unlock wall of shame

updated guide, check it before buying a #phone

Over the past few years, a suspicious number of companies have started to "take care of your data", aka block/strictly limit your ability to unlock the bootloader on your own devices.

While this may not affect you directly, it sets a bad precedent. You never know what will get the axe next: Shizuku? ADB? Sideloading? I thought it might be a good idea to keep track of bad companies and workarounds.

How to run #ADB and #fastboot in #Termux without root to unlock #bootloader, run ADB commands, remove #bloatware, flash ROM, or even root another #Android

1. It supports debloating of various manufacturers and mobile carriers such as LG, Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, Realme, Vivo, ZTE, OnePlus, Nokia, Sony, Asus, Google, Fairphone, Motorola, Tecno, Unihertz.
2. Full access to the app’s private storage — including databases, tokens, cached credentials, config files, or even offline user data.
3. Another common issue in AndroidManifest.xml is this flag: When enabled (which it is by default unless explicitly disabled), Android allows the app’s private data to be backed up via ADB — again, even on non-rooted devices.

Android, use termux-adb command instead of adb

Universal Android Debloater Next Generation

This is a detached fork of the UAD project, which aims to improve privacy and battery performance by removing unnecessary and obscure system apps. This can also contribute to improving security by reducing (but not eliminating) the attack surface. Read the wiki for more details on getting started. Whilst UAD-ng can remove system apps, it cannot detect or remove potentially malicious system services or drivers baked into the firmware of your device by various vendors; some vendor-specific apps are only UI front-ends to vendor-provided system services, and as such disabling/uninstalling those apps will not stop a service from running. Additional information can be found in package descriptions inside the Universal Android Debloater Next Generation application.
