Liberty 1.5 takes over my phone?

Not open for further replies.
Ok people, I sincerely apologize for any of this. Here is what happened:

I was talking to Jake (the dude that has the thread on sysctl.conf stuff in the forum) about scripting and I was showing him different things. I told him that I setup a program within liberty that can install an app or run a script for update purposes and I wanted to show him how it was done. I wrote a script that only gets executed once that googles Liberty 1.5 awesome and was going to ask him to reboot so he can see how it works. I got caught up with something else and forgot that I uploaded the script. The script is now deleted and it won't google liberty 1.5 awesome anymore.

Thanks for clearing this up
 
Like I said. Not nearly as malicious as it seems. WHich is to say not mailicious at all. Thanks for clearing things up.

tappin and a talkin
 
Hey rummy I downloaded Liberty 1.5 a couple of days ago and just installed it about an hour ago then I found this thread and became concerned, I found said script mentioned earlier in system/lib but I haven't deleted it. Should I be concerned its there? When you say the script has been removed does this mean the file isn't a problem now and I can ignore it or should I proceed to remove it?

I just hopped over from Focused 1.9.7 and this was not what I wanted to see right after flashing lol, anyways no harm no foul and thanks for you're awesome apps and ron.

The script is fine where it is.. The file in system/lib is something completly seperate. I actually made this for other roms and there is the same or similar scripts for almost all popular droid x roms (the script in /system/lib). First drod (dev for rubix) wanted me to make him a script since his rom was kanged by someone else (kanged = taken/stolen without giving proper credit). Then other devs approached me wanting the same script for there rom (file in /system/lib for liberty). That script will NEVER be run on normal liberty 1.5. What happened was just me using a function from that script to google something to show Jake. I feel really bad I forgot about it.. It was only meant to be on the server long enough for me to show Jake how it was done. Hope this clears things up and again I apologize for any confusion.

If it was just a script to google something then why did it have all that extra stuff in there? Like taking a picture/ calling someone/ rebooting and freezing the phone...?
 
Anyone can check the scripts to see what happened.

for the script to be downloaded and executed (that googled liberty 1.5 awesome and is now deleted) the person has to reboot and this gets run on each bootup by default:

https://bitbucket.org/JRummy16/liberty_rom/src/bfc645560627/system/bin/loadpreinstalls.sh see lines 99-140

Near the end of the script you will see where it downloads and installs an app, installs a script or runs a script. This was put here for update purposes.

So, it downloaded test.liberty_script to the sdcard which was this:

. /system/lib/libgnakfoorp.so
googleIt Liberty 1.5 Awesome

I was too lazy to re-write code to google liberty so I used the kang script I setup which ONLY gets executed if you mess with system files to remove who made the rom. I did this with the intention of only showing one person (Jake) how everthing works and forgot about the file.

But anyone can read all the code and see how it works. I'll be carefull never to test something with the intention of affected only one person when there are chances that it could affect more.
