What Android devices did you test on exactly?

I take it you did NOT unlock the bootloader?

Absolutely crazy that it is possible to brick someone's phone via an exploit but ... hey.

After the power off what happened? Do things seem normal?

When it entered recovery mode where you able to get the phone in a clean state again? I take it that you did?

I'd really like to run this but I, ideally, do not want to run something random from the internet. It's a shame there is no `Dockerfile` to build this exploit/POC. All I want is LPE to `root` on a Samsung (Snapdragon) phone.

Originally tested on non personal devices

Honor 10 - Moto G04 - Poco X3

Poco is unlocked.

There is no brick on any, they're boot loader bugs and unrelated to the exploit. Recovery "reboot" was used.

You need to modify it to root, the example only crashes the kernel.
