Rooting Sonim Phones

Says no

But it doesn’t always know what it’s talking about so who knows

I think I saw a Sonim flashing tool somewhere on XDA.

I saw it, but nothing for 3900.

Yeah but you need a login. Saw it too

There was a user and pass there hold on I’ll get it

I just want to try reverse engineering it to extract the firehose.

There’s different software for every Sonim phone?

Check the program folders after install, but I assume it would download whatever it needs while flashing, unless someone can confirm it doesn’t need Internet.

In that case, it could either be in plain view, or need to dig deeper. 99 percent option 2

I don’t know, but I saw a few different versions.

@Dev-in-the-BM_2.0

Did you ever try flashing? Or at least readback?

With the firehose that successfully completed the handshake

No…
How do I do that?

With bkerler edl or qfil

login credentials don’t work for me

any updates?

@Dev-in-the-BM_2.0 @ars18
i managed to flash it once for a test BUT then when i edited the system img to my needs iit keeps stuck in sahara…

I wish I could help you more but it’s hard without the phone.

bkerler edl or qfil

edl via python

Try qfil. Follow @anonymousfliphones guide

will try with qfil i always get a error even i used the same firehose

Make sure to do it in flat build
