I am trying to get root access from recovery mode with the Dirty Cow exploit. I have adb access and my device is on Android 6.0.1. When I use VIKIROOT it's stuck at "waiting for reverse connect shell". I cannot open the clock/alarm app or toggle the bluetooth switch in order to trigger the backdoor. How can I root the device from recovery mode and decrypt the data (I know the passcode) of the device? Thanks.

  • Asus Zenfone 3. I am trying to use Dirty Cow as there is no other way that I know. I don't want to unlock the bootloader as it would wipe the data.

  • My device doesn't have a programmer and Kingoroot won't work on recovery mode.

  • I tried those programmers and they didn't work. A programmer is specific to a device and they need to be signed.

    I confirm that prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr_asus.mbn does not work.
