Reboot automatically after CARROOT displayed. #1

Closed usouta closed 1 month ago

I tried it in the environment at hand.

If it works, you should see log messages all the way up to [+] It worked???!?, and the device will start booting normally.

During boot, you should see a "BOOTING CARROOT" message appear in a very tiny font at the bottom of the screen, along with some ASCII art.

After paddling to this point, the device automatically rebooted and no further processing could be carried out. Is this the correct behaviour?

OS : Monterey Intel Mac

That sounds unexpected.

Check the youtube demo if you'd like to make extra sure what it's supposed to look like when it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFj9VPzNgn4

What firmware version is your R1 running? Have you used any other rooting/jailbreaking tools on it before now? (e.g. https://github.com/RabbitHoleEscapeR1/r1_escape )

I was wrong, CARROOT is functioning as per the youtube video. I respect and thank you for your excellent work. This rooting is working inside the device, so fastboot and adb cannot be used, right? Can I use it for FLASHing system.img?

DavidBuchanan314 commented 1 month ago

You don't need this for flashing a system.img, you can just use mtkclient for that, see https://github.com/RabbitHoleEscapeR1/r1_escape

The whole point of my tool is that it doesn't flash internal storage.

You can find instructions for enabling ADB in the docs https://github.com/DavidBuchanan314/rabbit_r1_boot_notes/tree/main/scripts/webusb

I understood the gist of the tool. I apologise for asking such a rudimentary question. Thank you for your sincere answer.
