Root Toolbox - BlackBerry Priv

There are a few websites showing that Blackberry Priv can be rooted and have updated Android OS.
Install Android 10 on BlackBerry Priv | RootBox Tools
This method teaches you How to install Android 10 on BlackBerry Priv, and it's safe, secured and easy to apply update to your smartphone.
rootboxtools.com
Is this true?

Ignore those stupid sites, 99.9% of the time (regarding device root/mods) if it's not at neither XDA nor 4PDA it doesn't exist (well, maybe I'm forgetting other forum or personal website, idk).

[Poll] Use Android Web Market without rooting

Hi, i'm redphx, the author of APK Downloader
I'm working on a new project that allows you to install apps from Android Web Market ( now is Google Play ) using push-to-device feature without having Android Market installed on your UNROOTED Kindle Fire or any devices that don't come with Android Market.
The goal is to make the installing process less painful for those people who don't know how to root or don't want to.
I make this poll to know if any of you interesting in that. This question is for stock / non-rooted users only
Sorry for my English

First off, I am not the creator of any of the resources listed below. All thanks should go towards: Dark Forces Team, WindowsPhoneHacker, and the many others who created these tools. Be sure to thank everyone whose tool/website/ROM you used by buying them a drink. Also, I am not responsible for any damage/bricking/etc that may occur as you attempt to modify your phone.
To address the the absence of OS version 7.10.7720.68, I would like to note that OS version 7.10.7720.68 is the original Mango update provided by Microsoft. Since then, Microsoft has continually updated the OS with minor tweaks (think: service packs) for Windows Phone. Though Samsung (or AT&T or whoever) has not provided these minor updates OTA, ROM developers for the Samsung Focus can bake them into their ROMs. Thus, any ROM with a version number higher than 7720.68 will contain all of the features you request (and more). More information as to the features added/fixed in the OS updates are given at the following link.

Now, the easiest place to start the rooting process is by visiting WindowsPhoneHacker's YouTube channel. There is a tutorial available (see the following link) that walks you through the whole process. I strongly suggest you watch the video several times to get a good idea as to the process required. Be sure to like the YouTube video if you find it helpful (trust me, you will).

I also suggest reading the more detailed information provide by WindowsPhoneHacker (see link below). The link takes you to the "Jailbreak" portion of the website which gives useful information on how to root and install custom ROMs. Read the source and the referenced sources three times or more before you even think about rooting your device.
(link 3)windowsphonehacker.com/articles/the_complete_guide_to_jailbreaking_windows_phone_7_and_7.5-09-24-11
At this point, you should be ready to root. Give it a shot. Be patient, stay calm, and good luck!

Pretend another Android SDK?

Hello,
I want to use an App called Untis on my Android 7.0 device. The problem is, that untis goes trough several servers and the server I need blocks "due to security reasons regarding SSL" Android 7.0. So is there any possibility to pretend an Android 7.1 SDK so I can login to Units?
I have a rooted SM-G928F.
I hope this thread is in the right category.

HD 8 2018 version questions

Hey everyone and just started working with these tablets. I got 4 of them for fairly cheap and setting up for my kids to use for school. I'm trying to unlock them but have some questions to make sure that I do this correctly as not all of the tablets have the same version.
Essentially all I'm really wanting is to run Family Link on the devices to manage screen and app time as FreeTime is a joke. I used the toolbox and installed Google Play services but when trying to setup the child account on the device it fails on Device Management, so I just planned on going to Lineage to fix the issue.
Now my 4 Devices:
1 x 6.3.1.5 - First device I opened and let it update not thinking
2 x 6.3.1.2 - Kept these devices from updating after reading the forums
1x 6.3.0.0 - Kept this from updating as well and seems been sitting at best buy for awhile
6.3.0.0 - From what I read this one should just be rootable, The issue is that I'm only finding steps on the Hardware root/unlock and nothing about just rooting the older build. How do I just root this device to start the steps of this post to unlock the bootloader from @k4y0z after the root part.
6.3.1.2 - These I will need to do hardware mod on correct since it's not BELOW 6.3.1.2?
6.3.1.5 - Towards the end of the thread for unlocking/rooting I noticed people from .4 up seemed to be having issues but couldn't tell if they were doing hardware mod. It's still fine to do the bricking to unlock these devices as long as I do the hardware mod to CLK correct?
Just want to make sure I have all my information correct before I get flash happy and thanks to anyone who can help!

Yes, you are correct. The shorting method should work fine, even on 6.3.1.5, the issues people are having is brand new HD8's with new lot codes. Start here Post #2
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd...nlock-fire-hd-8-2018-karnak-amonet-3-t3963496
Can confirm,shorting 6.3.1.5 worked for me with no problems.
I have my Fire HD 8 (2018). I'm staying on Fire OS 6.3.0.1 because I have blocked an OTA updates.

Did you ever figure out how to root 6.3.0.0?
UPDATE: After a bit of digging, I found the right path here: [UNLOCK][ROOT][TWRP][UNBRICK] Fire HD 8 2018 (karnak) amonet-3 | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
1. Extract the attached zip-file "amonet-karnak-v3.0.1.zip" and open a terminal in that directory.
NOTE: If you are already rooted, continue with the next step, otherwise get mtk-su by diplomatic from here and place (the unpacked binary) into amonet/bin folder
2. Enable ADB in Developer Settings

I should have read the outputs more carefully, because it does refer you here when it fails: Rapid Temporary Root for HD 8 & HD 10 | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
I thought there may have been another way to get root, but it seems that is the way to do it.
Thanks to Michajin.

Seeking English ROM with gApps for Huawei DRA-AL00 (Y5 2018/Enjoy 8e Youth)

I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 (either called the Y5 2018 or Enjoy 8e Youth depending on which source you believe) currently running Android 8.1 (device details from Droid Info attached).
I am seeking an English language ROM with gApps (or the option to add it). I have already searched the forums and found this thread, however, the ROMs listed seem to just be copies of the stock ROM (or, at least, I can't find any details about them except that they're Android 8.1) I'm worried they'll have the same issues as the factory reset OS that I've already tried. I also searched google generally and found a lot of ROMs for other Huawei phones but none that looked promising for this one... Neither LineageOS nor ArrowOS seem to have an option for this phone. I also don't see a TWRP version that's been specifically tested for this phone, but I'm thinking of trying the one that's recommended for the Y5 2017 or the Enjoy 8 Plus. Of course, that's only relevant if I can find a custom ROM worth using. I'm willing to risk bricking this phone by using a TWRP and ROM that are intended for a different but similar phone, but I'd rather do so with input from someone who's more knowledgeable about phone OSs than me . I'll post the results of any ROMs I try here so others with this phone can have clearer info on what works with it.
Thanks for your help!!
***
Additional info below, not necessary to answer the original question .
For context, I'm a complete newb to flashing custom ROMs on phones. That said, I follow directions just fine and have spent most of today watching and reading tutorials for other Huawei phones (can't find one for this phone specifically...). I've also already tried several different fixes to get this phone functional without replacing the OS, but each new fix keeps raising a new issue or only partially resolving the original one. Hence reverting to the solution that's always served me well on laptops and desktops, replacing the OS.
I have already:
- Factory reset the phone.
- Set the system language to English (this succeeded in getting most of the day-to-day interface to show up in English, but about half of the pop-up messages and the contents of the in-built app store/browser/etc are all still in Chinese...).
- Replaced the keyboard app as it was also still an odd mix of English and Chinese which made typing pretty difficult...
- Tried four different methods to install gPlay on a Huawei phone all of which appeared to be working during install but result in a gPlay app that won't open.
- Tried installing the apps that I need without going through the Play store, however, anything affiliated with google (eg gmail, gmaps) refuses to work. I updated Google Play Services and Google Services Framework APKs to the most recent versions I could find that are Android 8.1 compatible but that didn't fix the issue.
- Disabled as much of the bloatware as I can.
If I can't find a decent ROM for this phone, I'll keep trying to work around its issues using third party apps. However, I'm starting to lose hope in reaching a truly functional solution with the current OS. It'd be sad to give up on this project since it's a quite nice little phone for the very basic functions I need - decent speed and truly epic battery life (nearly a week if I'm not using it much!). At the end of the day though, it only cost me $88 in the first place, so I'd rather risk bricking it by flashing an incompatible ROM than leave it to gather dust in the back of a drawer somewhere .
Hey I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 with English ROM . It comes with Gapps and stuffs but my problem is getting Twrp for it. Can I ask how you got yours?
