Omnius for SE version 0.35 (29th March 2012)

  • Added Live boot (or hot-boot) feature for S1 MSM8x55(T) phones with unlocked bootloader.
  • It allows to start unsigned kernels like recoveryNeo.img or recoveryArc.img directly in phone RAM without replacing the original firmware stored in flash
  • The Live boot feature supports automatic SU utility upload to allow permanent rooting without any side-effects.
  • Note that the specified kernel has to provide the SEMC ADB interface
  • The bootloader is unlocked automatically during the unlock of S1 QSD8250 and S1 MSM7227 phones
  • Added explicit menu option for unlocking bootloader of S1 QD8250/MSM7227/MSM8x55(T) phones.
  • It does almost the same as the network unlock operation. Once you have an unlocked bootloader, you may freely reflash the phone without any limitations
  • Added support for flashing of unsigned firmwares (mostly kernels) into S1 QSD8250/MSM7227/MSM8x55(T) phones with bootloader unlocked by Omnius
  • The S1 MSM8x55(T) identify operation shows whether the phone accepts unsigned flashes
  • Removed final shutdown in S1 QSD8250/MSM7227/MSM8x55(T) flash operations to prevent unwanted phone restarts
  • S1 identify operations should not fail when some TA units are missing
  • S1 QSD8250/MSM7227/MSM8x55(T) identify operations can detect SEMC Developer simlock signatures
  • ADB communication is now much faster
  • The ADB server is now automatically stopped if necessary
  • Advertisement banners have been removed
