tested on MI424WR-GEN3I
I'm not sure if this inhibits the rooting process of future rooting using kingroot but here is something you can do after rooting with kingroot.
before doing this test that the rule is not in effect by going to a command prompt and typing "ping 183.61.38.246"
you should get a reply.
Setting the rule:
In the Firewall section go to the Advanced Filtering section (Network (Home/Office) Rules) > and select add.
SourceAddress = any
destination address= click down arrow and select "user defined". Change "Network Object" to "IPaddress183.61.38.246" and then select "add" button below and set Network object to "iPaddress" then enter the ip address in the 4 block sections of 183 61 38 246.
hit the apply button till you are back at the advanced filtering menu of the object with the settings below.
Protocol = any
Operation = Drop
hit apply
test your new rule by going to a command prompt and typing "ping 183.61.38.246"
you should not get a reply.

I enjoy a static environment, paranoia, or possibly I was getting bored and I needed a new site to block along with barneys playhouse webpage.

haha, it was a serious question though. Why are you blocking the ip? What does kingroot do with it, if anything?
Does anyone knows how to block an IP in an Asus RT-AC68U, tried last night and could not stop it. Maybe did not do it correctly.

That's exactly the problem: NOBODY KNOWS. Since Kingroot is closed-sourced, there's no way of telling what data it sends throughout the internet. I haven't rooted my 5.0.5 Gen1 FireTV yet (waiting for a trusted method, rbox, for example), but if I had I probably would've done something similar as the OP. I don't appreciate rogue unknown traffic going through my router.
What Kingroot beyond question does is check for updates and when available install it without asking.

I´m not at home to check, but since we have root, I guess, it might also be possible to block unwanted IPs in the host file on the fire tv (if it understands allow+deny).

Could not managed to block it. Would you be able to post your settings later on? Thank you
Was searching for a way to block it on mine as well. I'm running the FiOS-G1100 router and for the life of me can't find the appropriate section. Maybe I need to root it for SU rights!
So I am not a 100% sure, but i think this ip corresponds with pmir.3g.qq.com
So what you can do: connect with adbFire and open an adbshell. In adbFire remount system partition as rw.
[Root functions] [FS R/W]
in the terminal become root: $su
look at your hosts file:
#cat /system/etc/hosts
maybe make a backup (for example to folder Download):
#cp /system/etc/hosts /storage/sdcard0/Download/hosts.orig
Add the url to be redirected to localhost
#echo "127.0.0.1 pmir.3g.qq.com" >> /system/etc/hosts
see if the line was added:
#cat /system/etc/hosts
In adbFire remount system partition as read only.
[Root functions] [FS R/O]
#exit
#exit
In adbFire select [File] and [Reboot device]
I googled the url and found scary topics, but maybe this is completely unrelated to kingroot:

I dont understand alot. Read the thread about IMEI, but still cant get IMEI. Can someone please make guide for newbie?
Why do you need IMEI? If it is for Swype, there are countless workarounds. If not, then, well, I'll post a guide. But I need which app, and the ROM.
Hey everyone. I was just hoping that I saw this thread here or I was going to make it. I have been through Dizzy's thread with jealousy and have tried a few different things but could never get it to work.
A step by step guide would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
I want it for HBO Go and a few games that need it to run. Thanks again if this is possible.
Alot of app in the market need IMEI to use. Like Zenonia, Tap Tap and others
The best (and also the original) guide is by DizzyDen and you can find that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103766
Read through it carefully so you know what to expect.
Ok, but if some1 got time and can make a guide step by step it will be good. Not everybody know English so good, so thx.
DISCLAIMER: This is a quickie guide that's written down from memory, so please be very careful if you choose to follow these directions. Nothing I say here is better than what's already listed in Dizzy's very informative post, it's just a shortened version.
Dizzy's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103766

If you find these steps useful to you at all, please go to Dizzy's thread and thank Dizzy for the program.

=======================================================
1. Install the Java JDK on your machine (assuming windows) by going here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u26-download-400750.html
I use the Windows x86 one and that worked for me. YMMV.
2. Once Java is installed properly, download DizzyDen's IMEI zip file. I will not link it here, refer to the his/her original post to get the most up to date file.
3. Unzip the file into a directory somewhere convenient.
4. Go to your Nook and make sure you have the adbWireless app (download it from the market if you need to).
5. Run the adbWireless app and press the big green button. It will turn red and then show you an ip address. Make a note of this.
6. Launch Dizzy's IMEI program (!IMEIme.exe). At the dialog box "Do you want to use In-Place update features?" Answer YES.
7. The program will attempt ADB via USB and fail. Press OK.
8. At the next dialog box, enter the IPORT info from the adbWireless screen into this box.
9. Let it do it's thing. There may be other dialog boxes, I don't have my Nook with me right now to check, but they should be pretty obvious. When it's all done, the Nook should reboot and Dizzy's program will clean up after itself.
10. Now try out some of the IMEI required apps and see if they work.
Apps that worked for me once I did this:
XDA Free
Zenonia 3
Caligo Chasers
Mega Jump

Very good write up... a couple of things...
7... if you edit the ini file after first run... set Use_ADB_USB = 0 you won't have to deal with that question... it will disable the usb function in my program.
8: you only have to enter the port number in that box if you change the default port in your adbwifi app... you can also set a default ip address : port in the ini file and it will have it pre-loaded in the ip input box.
Ok here is my ini settings [Settings]
Use_In_Place = 1
Use_Previous_Patch = 0
Use_Serial_Number = 0
Use_MAC_Address = 0
Use_Manual_Input = 1
Encrypt_IMEI = 0
Use_ADB = 1
Use_ADB(usb) = 0
Use_ADB(WiFi) = 1
Clean_Up = 1
WiFi_IP_Address = 192.168.2.100
IMEI = 4938567924
I try to write the Ip. It say Adb wifi failed. Then i try IPort. Failed agian. My Ip is 192.168.2.100. Try with 2 adb wifi app.

what is your computer ip address? if it is not also in the 192.168.2.0 network... you have IP isolation on for wifi and the computer will not talk to the nook.
Ok it seem my PC IP is class A 78..... i use my neighbor wifi. Can i fix the problem somehow? Can i do it with USB adb? I try but get error... Sorry my English is not very good.

So this still needs a lot of work but I am providing a working boot.img and root filesystem archive for all Nexus 9 variants? (not sure needs others to test and confirm).
Will be edited as things start working
What's working:
WiFi. (Must use 'nmcli dev wifi con "SSID" password "passwd" ')
GPU @ anywhere from 900-2000 FPS
Sound works just needs reconfiguring
Screen rotation works best with minimal issues as desktop taskbar widgets command to turn clockwise into landscape:
Code:
sudo xrandr -o right; sudo xinput set-prop 7 "Evdev Axis Inversion" 0, 1; sudo xinput set-prop 7 "Evdev Axes Swap" 1
&
Code:
sudo xrandr -o right; sudo xinput set-prop 7 "Evdev Axis Inversion" 0, 0; sudo xinput set-prop 7 "Evdev Axes Swap" 0
For normal portrait orientation
However DO NOT USE THE DISPLAY SETTINGS TO ROTATE IT MESSES UP THE LOGIN ROTATION AND SCREEN GOES BLACK AND SOMETIMES SHOW BACK UP IN LANDSCAPE AND WILL NOT DEFAULT BACK INTO PORTRAIT ORIENTATION. SO YOU MUST DO IT MANUALLY!!!!! See screenshot below
Swipe gestures (Chromium-browser only).
Bluetooth: WORKING!!! Install package bluetooth-touch and set this command into a shell script or enter manually the ENTIRE string:
Code:
brcm_patchram_plus --enable_hci --use_baudrate_for_download --scopcm=0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 --baudrate 3000000 --patchram /lib/firmware/bcm4354.hcd --no2bytes --enable_lpm --tosleep=50000 /dev/ttyTHS2
Also using a Bluetooth audio sink works by itself without keyboard connected. I've found it still needs work but, connecting to a keyboard still flawless in its function file transfer locks it up when sending not receiving. Pairing and connecting are all good but functionality of Bluetooth is down to one device at a time for best results
What's not working:
Cameras (Neither front nor rear camera works at all. Needs work).
NFC? (I have no idea how to check for this. Needs work).
Probably other things I missed.
What you will need:
Any Nexus 9 with an unlocked bootloader & latest TWRP recovery installed
USB keyboard
OTG cable
Instructions:
MAKE A BACKUP! Just in case.
1.) Enter into recovery go to wipe and format Data partition as Ext4
2.) Reboot into recovery and with the boot.img and rootfs on a flash drive or, push them to device via ADB.
3.) Go to terminal command in recovery issue the commands: cd /data; mkdir linux; cd linux
4.) tar xvjf /sdcard/rootfs.tar.bz2 -C /data/linux
5.) Flash N9boot.img with install image in TWRP Install submenu.
6.) Reboot into the new Linux system.
7.) If the Kernel panics and boot loops, go back into recovery and format the data partition again it will ask are you sure type yes & repeat steps 2-4
You will need to use a USB keyboard & OTG cable to install the necessary packages and connect to WiFi/Bluetooth.
It's much easier to install on device than in a chroot environment as I have had problems in the past. And some people have different favorite Desktop Environment's. However Gnome and KDE both do not work correctly and crash.
Fluxbox, Mate, XFCE, LXDE, all work as they should with Lightdm.
If there's anything I missed you can add it below, PM me and ask, whatever and I'll try to answer as soon as I am able.

And thanks to @sonicadvance1 for his original guide & @Vartom for his work on porting some of the necessary Kernel drivers. And @Vartom again for his contributions to the Bluetooth and everything else to get us this far :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:
Xubuntu-Desktop Preinstalled 21.5 Drivers 1GB username=ubuntu password=ubuntu

In order to get the preinstalled to fix login if having issues use the command as root in virtual terminal Ctrl+Alt+F1/F2, etc
Code:
chown ubuntu:ubuntu /home/ubuntu
.
This should fix the login issues, if you want you can create a different user and remove the premade user using these commands as root in virtual terminal.
Code:
deluser username
adduser username
addgroup username adm
addgroup username sudo
Additionally if you have an error when running glxgears there is a fix
Code:
xauth list
It should output something similar to this
Code:
localhost.localdomain/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 a4f6256398303725763c5595f404afbb
You will need to export the display and add that MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE you got from xauth list
Code:
export DISPLAY=":0"; xauth add $DISPLAY . a4f6256398303725763c5595f404afbb
This should fix the display error.
And finally,
Enjoy Ubuntu on your Nexus 9

Yeah now that I got wifi working I'm off to study how to get xfce4 installed. Everyone says Arch is hard but I'll tell you their repo's are extensive. Now I have to learn about ppa's...
Also, I'm over 50 and because we have a 2048 x 1536 display everything is very tiny making all of this more of a challenge... I tried a couple things to bump the font size but they don't work....

I knew you were old school. I did get Arch Linux running on the original guide but it was choppy at best and only ran in the framebuffer but this was the aarch64 version. I do think it could be done because it's my preferred distro these days as well. I think we'd have to change a few things in the CPIO init scripts.. You know point to what it needs but, that's a little too advanced for me.
Also try setting a custom dpi in the settings menu if you're using XFCE I know there's the option there
and to install it you need to uncomment all the extra repos in /etc/apt/sources.list then do apt update && apt install xubuntu-desktop
it should look like in the picture

Cameras are not included in the kernel. I did not check their performance in this kernel.
Linux Inside... Nice. Well I found a few minutes and got this far.... https://imgur.com/a/VuDEN Xauthority issue? I'll check into it later. I assume suspend doesn't work? I tried once but didn't want to crash it right now. also changed scroll bar width... easier to tap. Border width is next.
Scroll bar width:
Open the .gtkrc-2.0 file, add the following to a new line starting at the bottom of the file:
Code:
style "myscrollbar"
{
GtkScrollbar::slider-width=XX
}
class "GtkScrollbar" style "myscrollbar"
How's the performance ?
Can I use it as a desktop?
Yes indeed it does work as a desktop I got screen rotation down to two three command scripts with desktop widgets. Most things work as of now Bluetooth sucks no matter what I do but, touchscreen works fine WiFi works fine no Cameras yet Sound only through headset. Hardware acceleration works at anywhere from 800 FPS - 2000 FPS. Videos like on YouTube stutter a little if you are doing other things while watching. Swipe gestures work in Chromium browser only. (Still working on installing multifunction swipe gestures) Your best bet would be to buy one of those $11 Micro-B USB wired tablet keyboards or just use the Onboard keyboard if its already in a rugged case or whatever. Those two green arrows at the top of the desktop are my rotate widgets

Yes there is an .Xauthority error when I flashed it as well that was why I said it's difficult to make a working install and that it was easier to install on device but either try chown ubuntu:ubuntu /home/ubuntu as root and it may fix your issue or you have to create a new user

Porting the cameras was not 100% complete. Therefore, simply adding lines to the config is not enough.

For bluetooth work, you need to download the corresponding firmware.
with some similar string
exec /usr/sbin/brcm_patchram_plus --enable_hci --use_baudrate_for_download --scopcm=0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 --baudrate 3000000 --patchram /lib/firmware/bcm4324.hcd --no2bytes --enable_lpm --tosleep=50000 /dev/ttyTHS2
this can be added to the nvwifibt.conf config file.

So the Lockscreen on my new HD 10 is pretty garbage, so far I've managed to get rid of the ads, but I can't change the Lockscreen wallpaper and I don't get any preview of a notification (e.g. the mail subject etc.)
Is there a workaround for those problems? Because simply isntalling a new lockscreen app, just makes me unlock my tablet twice, which isn't ideal.
Did you manually disable com.amazon.kindle.kso (special offers/lockscreen ads) over ADB in fire os 5.4.0.0 or lower using the method DragonFire1024 posted? If so, then yes, I found a fix that allows you to see notifications on the lockscreen without swiping down, more like the stock Android 5.x lockscreen.

I thought Amazon broke the ability to disable apps over ADB with the release of 5.4.0.1. Did that not affect the new 2017 HD 10?

Well, I don't know if this will work with your exact tablet, but try this:
1. If you haven't already, get the Google Play store/services on your tablet
2. Download this app without the quotes: "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22&hl=en"
3. Follow on-screen instructions to grant tablet permission to edit secure settings (worked on 2 devices on 5.6)
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU EDIT. If you change the wrong settings, your tablet can and probably bootloop or get bricked.
4. Go to the "secure" tab, scroll down to "limit_ad_tracking" and change value to 1
5. Go to "global" tab, scroll down to "LOCKSCREEN_AD_ENABLED" and change value to 0. Immediately reboot your device.
This was tested and worked on two HD 8 tablets on 5.6, with special offers manually disabled on 5.4. Since Amazon still thinks you are subscribed to special offers (ads), the notifications are hidden. This workaround actually makes the ads gone (hopefully), so the notifications will appear as soon as you turn on the screen, without a swipe down gesture.
Open up command prompt. Type in "adb shell", Then type in "su"
Then copy this into command prompt.
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db "UPDATE locksettings SET value = '1' WHERE name = 'lockscreen.disabled'"
You will not get a confirmation, now type "exit", then type "reboot".
Let the device reboot and enjoy! Now install a new lockscreen.
Want it back?

So the Lockscreen on my new HD 10 is pretty garbage, so far I've managed to get rid of the ads, but I can't change the Lockscreen wallpaper and I don't get any preview of a notification (e.g. the mail subject etc.)
Is there a workaround for those problems? Because simply isntalling a new lockscreen app, just makes me unlock my tablet twice, which isn't ideal.

Personally, I'd suggest just rooting it and disabling it. I did it a few months ago on my Dad's HD10 by following one of the guides here- I just can't remember which one, but it was simple. I also installed Gravity Screen Pro since I have his set up more like a laptop. The screen turns on/off when opened/ closed without ever having to see a lock screen. I might stop by my parents today (depending on the weather) and if i do, I'll try to trace my steps and link the guide I followed

I just had to do it again today because attempted to use Xposed and wound up getting in over my head and got caught in a bootloop, but at least I can reaffirm that this guide works

I love all your posts- it's your guide I followed to disable the lockscreen. Unfortunately, Xposed is a bit much for a "noob" like me. I attempted to install it and got caught in a bootloop and had to do a factory reset. Considering what my dad uses it for, the negatives far outway the positives for me to bother with Xposed ever again
Hi Guys
So, as you all know, Quick capture is disabled in devices connected to an Indian network and this had me pissed off for a very long time.
I looked into the Emergency Affordance Service which is responsible for identifying Indian SIMs and found a way to disable it (at least on the 5t).
But a word first.
DISCLAIMER: The Govt of India has stated that it is mandatory for all phone manufacturers to add this functionality for the right reasons. By disabling the feature you will NOT be able to use the triple-press power button for emergency call. I do not take responsibility for any damage caused due to the actions described in this post.
Alright, lets jump into it.
Step 1. Install a terminal emulator app (or connect via adb shell)
Step 2. Enter the following command without quotes:
"settings put global emergency_affordance_needed 0"
(You may use the "settings get global emergency_affordance_needed" command to confirm if it worked.)
Step 3. Check the OnePlus Camera app - the Quick capture option should be there.
Step 4. Profit!?
Notes:
My 5t was rooted with magisk, but I ran the command on a normal ($) prompt so I'm not sure if this requires root or not. Please try it on unrooted devices and let me know so I can update this post accordingly. Also, I haven't checked if it persists after a reboot.
Not working on non rooted device.
It works in adb shell after su command..however it resets back to default after reboot...Could someone make this into a magisk module?

Yeah even I saw that it goes back to normal even without a reboot.
The EmergencyAffordanceService periodically scans the MCC of the SIM and sets that value to 1 if the MCC is 404 or 405.
So I tried spoofing the MCC in many different ways, but none of them worked for me.
This section of the config file sets the list of the MCC codes for which EmergencyAffordance is enabled.
Code:
<!-- Do not translate. Mcc codes whose existence trigger the presence of emergency
affordances-->
<integer-array name="config_emergency_mcc_codes" translatable="false">
<item>404</item>
<item>405</item>
</integer-array>
If we can somehow modify this array, I think it should be permanently disabled. But I guess that would require an Xposed module or apk editing (areas I know nothing about)
There are other methods I'm sure, maybe one involving an Xposed module which hooks the method that checks for the MCC codes and makes it return false.
If anyone has any ideas, please do chime in.
any idea how the phone detects that its india? Could we spoof that?

I've (kind of) figured out a few ways to resolve this, but not the implementation part.
This Xposed module should be able to solve the issue by making the method check return false, but I cant seem to get the module working on my device.
Anyone with Xposed, could you see if the module is working for you? It FCs whenever I open it.

Sorry for bumping an old thread but has anybody figured out how do get this working permanently with xposed or magisk ? I bought a OP6 and miss this feature coming from a Nokia 7+
MAGISK Module!
Hi,
Was able to create a magisk module to do this automatically every boot and also got wifi auto turn on to work, check out the thread here.

Might be possible to override this with an overlay (non-root Substratum.)
OK, I don't think this thread will get any attention, but I want to document it anyway. All this should work on other devices with qcom WiFi drivers.
TL;DR:
Grab iwpriv binary somewhere (i've got my here: https://github.com/kriswebdev/android_wireless_tools/tree/master/bin)
adb push iwpriv /data/local/tmp/
adb shell su -c chmod +x /data/local/tmp/iwpriv
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
ip link set wlan0 down
sleep 1
echo 4 > /sys/module/wlan/parameters/con_mode
sleep 2
ip link set wlan0 up
/data/local/tmp/iwpriv wlan0 monitor 1
/data/local/tmp/iwpriv wlan0 MonitorModeConf 9 40 1 111 0
And enjoy your airodump output
NO PACKET INJECTION! (stubbed out in driver, removed previously?)
If you don't receive any packets, issue "/data/local/tmp/iwpriv wlan0 monitor 1" again.
How does this all work?
Some time ago I discovered these strings in wlan_hal_msg.h: (they appeared in google):
Code:
...
/* Monitor Mode */
WLAN_HAL_ENABLE_MONITOR_MODE_REQ = 302,
WLAN_HAL_ENABLE_MONITOR_MODE_RSP = 303,
WLAN_HAL_DISABLE_MONITOR_MODE_REQ = 304,
WLAN_HAL_DISABLE_MONITOR_MODE_RSP = 305,
...
Then I unscrambled some indirections:
WLAN_HAL_ENABLE_MONITOR_MODE_REQ to WDI_MON_START_REQ in WDI_2_HAL_REQ_TYPE
WDI_MON_START_REQ sent in WDI_ProcessMonStartReq <— actual message sents here!
Called from "Request Processing Array" in function WDI_MonStartReq
Wrapped in WDA_ProcessMonStartReq, which is called in WDA_McProcessMsg by message WDA_MON_START_REQ
Which message is posted by wlan_hdd_mon_postMsg if (MON_MODE_START == pMonCtx->state)
Which is called in __iw_setint_getnone with sub_cmd = WE_SET_MONITOR_STATE
Which is set by iw_priv cmd "monitor"
And then figured out that driver works in different modes:
(vos_types.h)
Code:
/// Concurrency role. These are generic IDs that identify the various roles
/// in the software system.
typedef enum
{ /*ON linux maintain 1-1 corespondence with device_mode_t in hdd*/
VOS_STA_MODE=0,
VOS_STA_SAP_MODE=1, //to support softAp mode . This is misleading. It means AP MODE only.
//The constant name has historical reason
VOS_P2P_CLIENT_MODE,
VOS_P2P_GO_MODE,
VOS_MONITOR_MODE,
VOS_FTM_MODE = 5,
VOS_IBSS_MODE,
VOS_P2P_DEVICE,
VOS_MAX_NO_OF_MODE
} tVOS_CON_MODE;
Mode can be changed by "con_mode" module parameter.
(idk why they reinvented the wheel and not used the default "iw dev wlan0 set mode monitor")
Combined all this and... got a kernel panic. You may get it too. Main reasons are:
- You have not disabled WiFi before changing the mode
- The sleep time after disabling interface is short
- Driver is old. Yes, you can get crashes on some kernels. If you are, flash AGNi.
After successful switching you'll get a working monitor (check this with tcpdump -i wlan0), but with ethernet packets instead of radiotap, so airodump will not work. Luckily, this giant crappy driver can work with radiotap, but you need to configure it. This is done by another iwpriv call:
MonitorModeConf: <channel> <bandwidth> <crccheck> <filter> <conversion_required>
Filter: 3 decimal numbers
least to most: management packets, control packets, data packets
Conversion: 1 - ARPHRD_ETHER (802.3 packets), 0 - ARPHRD_IEEE80211_RADIOTAP (802.11 packets)
(again don't know why they implemented these calls instead of default ioctl's for channel switch, etc. This makes airodump unable to switch channels)
As a result you may get something like on a screenshot
Happy sniffing!
Who said it will not be an interesting , I my self appreciated your effort to bring this up. Kudos to you friend.

Thanks. I wanted to say that kenzo development is almost dead, we've lost official LOS and keep losing devs.... So it's most likely we'll not see working packet injection (cuz devs who know driver's internals better than me are left), and, possibly, a wrapper library implementing the default ioctl's (like channel switch) used in most programs.
i understand, hopefully we can have new devs. who will continue
This is a perfect news. At least if this device became obsolete, it should still be useful to be a portable linux pen test device, if possible. Anyway, awesome job mate. Very much appreciated

Thank you. I forgot to say that monitor mode requiers support from firmware (there's some code in driver that checks for it). Kenzo guys are lucky because we have it enabled . There's also sta+monitor mode (so you can have working wifi connection while sniffing), but it also requiers support from firmware and kenzo's fw compiled without it. I forgot how to enable it, but i think you need to issue "iwpriv wlan0 monitor 1" in default con_mode and check dmesg - there will be a string that says it's not supported (if it is not).
And if someone is interested, our wireless chip is wcn3680b, simmilar one (or same, idk) can be found in nexus 4 (mako)

Please understand that I don't have any "note 5 pro". You can send me logcat and I can try to identify the problem or ask your ROM developer to take a look (if it's not MIUI lol). Anyway, that's just scripts, so you can copy them to /data/local/tmp or /system/bin manually.

Sort of. It makes your sniffer to work - you will be able to capture raw WiFi packets from your device without any dongles.
