Galaxy Tab Firmware Will Come With Protected Bootloader Leak
The Samsung Galaxy Tab latest leaked firmwares comes with protected bootloader. It disable usage ROM flash abilities from the tablet. The XDA Moderator Chainfire post as the pursuit:
Some of these ROMs include new bootloaders. These bootloaders checkout checksums/signatures in various parts of the firmwares. The “normal” Samsung ROMs, nor custom ROMs and kernels, rich person these checksums.
The result is that once flashed, you cannot revert to older/official/custom Samsung ROMs, and you are pretty much stuck exploitation unity of these four ROMs, as they ar the only ones containing the right checksums.
…
There is no known fix. I know, I’ve tried all of them some citizenry suggested in other togs. None of them really deeds. Sure, with some deed, you tin get a different microcode to somewhat run, but you’ll distillery be using the “checksum” bootloaders and the kernel will not be modified. You volition still be running the kernel from the “checksum” microcode you loaded earlier. You will not be able to do full flashes, nor will KIES updates work.
