ABOOT WARNING BOOT MESSAGE ON GOOGLE PIXEL #83

Closed thierryg closed 7 years ago

thierryg commented 7 years ago

HI,

I have a pixel sailfish (HTC NEXUS S1) and since i have flashed my own image build from the aosp source code, i have a yellow warning boot message at each boot.

My bootloader is locked but i the message is displayed 'cos i don't have the OEM key as seen in this google page:

https://source.android.com/security/images/verified_boot.png https://source.android.com/security/verifiedboot/verified-boot

Is there a way to hack this warning boot message by flashing another aboot image or by injecting an OEM key ?

I have heard that some guys have found a way using an HTC image but i still try to find a way to dot it.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

You can't remove the message without exploiting a vulnerability, which Google would fix if they knew about it.

It's not something that's in-scope for android-prepare-vendor at all.
