Google Edition Rom is Patched already for security risk

The security risk that was reported to affect 99% of devices has already been patched in the Google Edition Rom.
The company that found the exploit posted an app to scan for the exploit. When I ran it on my One running the stock google edition rom it showed as patched

Apparently ARHD is as well... So I would go to say that HTC One 4.2.2 is patched already.

Yeah I know...
I think its a scare tactic. Read the article on AC.. its pretty iffy to see TiBu, root explorer and Faux Clock and other apps on the screenshot... considering I have all installed and it didn't show on mine lol

What is this?

I believe what the OP is showing is a place on the phone that records that you have rooted it in the past. The RAZR HD did this as well as other phones. On some you are unable to clear the flag. Moto or your carrier could use it to deny you a warranty replacement.

Every device has something that detects root, the APK here isn't actually what is doing it. It is the qe binary in /xbin

Bootloader

New to g2 great phone so far , just wondering if people are working on unlocking, Thanks

We have loki which allows us to flash recovery, roms, and kerenels. Unlocking, as far as I know, isnt really necessary.

I am new yo android. Can you please explain what a bootloader is and reasons in general to unlocking it?
Thanks

Being new, I'm going to tell you that if you keep asking these kinds of questions without doing a Google search first, you're going to need to put this on in here...

nEED TESTER

I build a new rom but need testers please pm me
STOCK BASE ROM NO KNOX WITH A FEW TWEAKS
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0VaOIBC9gcRUTcxNDBVM3QtYk0/edit?usp=sharing

how about a little more info ?
I see a boot image in your rom.
my understanding is that is not needed with a locked bootloader and safestrap ?
I could be wrong

I'll gladly test out your Rom...Once you provide some more information and screenshot... testing is great ...Being a Guinea pig left completely in the dark, with nothing but a link to a gig or more file, is a bit shady.... Especially for a device like att note 3 which cannot use aroma, and has enforced selinux.
Mega

I wouldn't test anything. ..be careful. .lol

"Stagefright" System Update

This popped up yesterday ... I'm about to do the update. We'll see if I lose root or if anything else goes weird.
Anyone else get this?

I'm also rooted and stock rom 0d2 with the notification for.this update. Did it install fine with no issues with root? I'm getting sick of the notification and want to update, is there a flash available? BTW I'm using SPH-L720.
