Galaxy S20 crashes after mounting drive (last step)

[chorong761]

I'm trying to do this on a rooted Galaxy S20, running android 14.

Since the sh -c "$(curl -fSs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/master-hax/pixel-backup-gang/master/install.sh)" command doesn't work in termux for me (bin/sh access denied), I decided to manually copy the scripts into the termux "home folder".

This method works fine until the last step, which is the mounting part. As soon as I run the mount command, the command runs for a second and the phone would lock up and reboot.

I wonder if it's because I'm running a newer version of android or it's not a pixel?

Since it locks up right away, I couldn't take a screenshot of termux. I could try again and take a picture of the screen if it would help with diagnostics.

(this project has only been tested on the original pixel)

can you share the output of the following commands from your device?

1. getprop ro.product.manufacturer
2. getprop ro.product.model
3. getprop ro.product.name
4. getprop ro.build.id
5. getprop ro.build.version.sdk
6. getprop ro.build.version.min_supported_target_sdk
7. cat /proc/filesystems

please share the mount command you ran. you can also try running each command from the mounting script independently to see where it crashes.

getprop ro.product.manufacturer = samsung getprop ro.product.model = SM-G9810 getprop ro.product.name = x1qzhx getprop ro.build.id = TP1A.220624.014 getprop ro.build.version.sdk = 33 getprop ro.build.version.min_supported_target_sdk = 22 cat /proc/filesystems =

The command I used to mount is ./mount_ext4.sh /dev/block/sde2, the last line I see in termux before the phone crashes is setenforce 0

[master-hax]

i think the newer android kernels might require selinux to be enabled. we can probably use magiskpolicy to fix this.

to confirm this is the case, let's try running the script again but skip the setenforce 0 command. the files from the drive under /the_binding should be now visible to apps but not readable.

[chorong761]

I removed setenforce 0 from the mounting script, and it did not crash after running.

I could only see the "the_binding" folder via mnt/runtime/default/emulated/0/the_binding and mnt/my_drive, but not via the normal "internal storage" area.

Sorry for sounding like I'm rushing you, but may I ask if there are any updates on this?

[master-hax]

Sorry, I haven't had a chance to look into this further. Also, I don't have a Galaxy S20 or any Android 13 device to test.

I believe that replacing the broad setenforce 0 with a finer grained policy change using magiskpolicy might fix the issue. I would try playing around with this and see if it works.

Thanks for the update! Take your time :)
