Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

Yep, rainisto right, i answered only how to restore original sys-ui..
Also you can try R&D mode, if you phone can loads, you can try manually restore what cause reboot loop or do what rainisto write.

# devel-su
# opensh
# perl -pi -w -e 's#com.nokia.maemo/local#com.nokia.maemo#smg' /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist
# accli -c tcb-sign -F /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist -i /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist
# /usr/sbin/validator-init; aegis-loader;echo 1 > /sys/kernel/security/validator/flush
# reboot

AND BIG DISCLAIMER IN HERE, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE, IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. :)

After boot all the incepted packages have turned into normal nokia packages and you can apt-get original nokia packages over them just fine.

Hi reinisto
I always get "malfunction" when I run this...
I created script:

Code:

#!/bin/sh



perl -pi -w -e 's#com.nokia.maemo/local#com.nokia.maemo#smg' /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist

accli -c tcb-sign -F /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist -i /var/lib/aegis/refhashlist

/usr/sbin/validator-init; aegis-loader;echo 1 > /sys/kernel/security/validator/flush

and I run it via ariadne (not opensh):

Code:

ariadne sh -c "sh /path/to/script"

It ask pass and work without errors, I also checked refhashlist file and it changed from "com.nokia.maemo/local" to "com.nokia.maemo". But when I reboot my phone I always get MALF message...
I already flashed my phone 4 times after some different tests :D
Why ? Any ideas ?

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

sounds wierd, most common error is that people forget to run reboot command immediately after flush. If you happen to run or cat any file before reboot that was edited triggers automaticly malf flag.

But lets see I'll do some experiments with one of my extra n9's and get back to you if there would happen to be errors in script (although it has worked for me every time (but I'm using opensh with all capas)), your script is missing "reboot" line atleast. Are you sure that your next command after the flush was "reboot", ie you didnt try cat refhashlist before rebooting?

Second option is just to run "reboot" command right after the accli signature command. As that validator-init line is just fancy thing for one of my other hacks which actually might even be needed in this case.

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

Ahhh dmn.. My bad... I did not think that it is important... Sorry :(
I not used cat, I just opened refhashlist file via WinSCP, checked it and rebooted via N9Refresh button from N9QT.
Going to try again, I will add "/sbin/reboot" to the script :)
Report later.
Thanks

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

Ok, instead using "/sbin/reboot" I added:

Code:

qdbus --system com.nokia.dsme /com/nokia/dsme/request com.nokia.dsme.request.req_reboot

for reboot without asking pass...
But again MALF... :( Also it took so long time, something like 5-7 minutes to finish process and start reboot. Why ?
I going to try again with "/sbin/reboot"...

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

Hmmmm... Also with "/sbin/reboot" I got MALF :D Going to sleep....

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

You mean to change where it have thus:

Code:

Object: SRC::com.nokia.maemo/local

Request

also without word /local ?
And what about file "domains" it also have:

Code:

  <domain>

    <name>com.nokia.maemo/local</name>

    <key>LOCAL::tcb</key>

    <trust-level>10000</trust-level>

    <certified/>

  </domain>

What you think ?

Ps. Also what you think if running "refhashlist.pl" can help here?

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

I added this to the script, but MALF again after reboot :D

Code:

perl -pi -w -e 's#com.nokia.maemo/local#com.nokia.maemo#smg' /var/lib/aegis/restok/restok.conf

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

I fixed the script on my original post. Sorry for the troubles, I've always used com.nokia.maemo opensh and havent used inception.

But anyways, now script should not malf, and it changes everything as com.nokia.maemo. It even fixes inception, that if you incept packages after that they appear as com.nokia.maemo like they should have always been in the perfect world.

Re: [Help!] Get back to factory sys-ui...

Thank you very much ! I will try it now..
But tell me something for understand:
1. Why you need reinstall system-ui ?
2. Why the flush process take so much time if you touch your phone and you not touch screen, when phone activate screenlock it finish process and go to reboot.
3. why you use "reboot" instead "/sbin/reboot" ? You added it to PATH ?
