Well we released the tool here, and already today we are adding a new device to support, the HTC Aria. Again rooted via the same recovery adbd race they too can benefit from a easy way to get back in to flash roms at will. We will be adding a FAQ to the unrevoked site [...]

We are slowly progressing through all possibilities on the incredible root process. It’s just pretty decently well done, no simple mistakes we could take advantage of like the evo. A kernel exploit may prove to be the only way here, and we do have progress toward that end, but would like to find another way [...]
I guess I owe you guys another update about now. There are certainly several of us working on this at this point and we are starting to all come together on various ideas. Currently we have a few know bugs that needs to be properly exploited in addition to some interesting other tidbits we might [...]
Ok, so I haven’t updated on this in a while and figured I should. The exploit I was going after apparently didn’t exist, I missed the check which rendered that attack useless. The next attack is the fastboot vector mentions elsewhere on the web the last several days. However so far I don’t see where [...]
Well I can now confirm that exploit is not going to work. HTC didn’t implement the normal patch, but they did properly close down on the memory space we can access with that hole thus making is pretty irrelevant. While there could be a way around this, it’s beyond me. What I did start looking [...]
So I’ve been looking at rooting the Incredible and currently believe our best attack vector may very well lie in /system/bin/installd. It executable by us, it runs as root, it stays running. Heck, it installs our stuff. It appears to call setuid. Thus it may well be exploitable by the shoruyken attack, and may very [...]
