@morc ohh, neat! I would've expect it to be far more tied down, the ones I played with wouldn't budge in any way and had all kinds of anti tamper mechanisms.
nice, thanks for explaining!

@anthropy yeah... there's a bunch of subtle roadblocks that some cool people before figured out. The file transfer protocol is partially based on ADB and is rather easily accessible, but by default it only runs signed binaries and no one obviously provides the official toolchain with signing. You have to abuse a bug where the existing signed apps start loading shared libraries, since those are not checked for signing There's also a bunch of other flaws that add up to a rooted env in the end :3
