Alas, no root on any of the Blackberry machines, beautiful though they are, due to a 'trusted' boot chain to which nobody except Blackberry has the key. This is a dealbreaker to anyone who wants to do any non-trivial hacking, such as a chroot - a group which I imagine has some considerable overlap with those who insist upon the ever-rare physical keyboard. Such a pity.
- gcb0 8y agothis is exactly the same with all other devices. just because you chose to use a leaked version of odin to root your samsung, with a leaked version of the firmware, built with a leaked version of the kernel and a leaked version of the binary drivers' firmware blobs... doesn't make either case better. one you don't have root, but already gives you the hability to filter each app permission (which was the only thing I did with root) via a system app they provide, the other you are pretty much doing the same as running a pirated version of windows. not defending either btw. android sucks in this regard. my point before was mostly to highlight how google and others now have the same invisible hand that Microsoft had before.
