Hello.

I created this wiki, originally as a place for me to document useful information I find about various hardware. This was actually going to be a personal wiki originally, however I realized the wiki would potentially be much more useful if others could add information. Who knows, maybe someday, it might document high amounts of devices.

Also, I am actually fairly new to the Android device hacking scene. I began looking into it in 2024, and have since learned many things. I am also still quite new to low-level programming and reverse engineering.

Some things I aim to do eventually:

• Port galaxy_s5_dev_tree_appended_bug to my Verizon Galaxy Core Prime, AT&T Galaxy S5, and AT&T Samsung Gear S.
• Reverse engineer Samsung's reactivation lock (libterrier.so?) and document it (that's where the 'obscure' in 'Somewhat Obscure Computing' comes from - I doubt this feature is well documented!).
• Figure out the 'sboot' file format, and how the included symbols come into play
• Use a particular exploit (forgot the URL) to unlock my Galaxy J3 Prime and/or my Galaxy J3 Orbit (if possible).
• Port an EFI implementation to an x86 phone (Asus Z00D).
• Look into unlock methods for various phones... (I own too many).
