Uh, that's not a nice thing to say?

Or if you prefer it in passive-aggressive tone, you get high marks for not engaging the core problem, giving obscure advice, and not being curious of what's happening or why.

You said adbd might have a few problems? Since I plan to do some more hacks, I'm both curious about them, and I want to make sure adbd can't be messed with too easily by the rest of the system.

I don't want to blindly try hacking a boot.img until something works: I prefer to understand what's happening, which parts does what, then make some precise changes to do what I want.

A chroot seemed like the easiest way. But it doesn't work, and that's super intriguing me: I believe everything that doesn't work the way it should is often a wonderful opportunity to learn and improve things!

I'm not well versed in android stuff yet, but by default I think this way is the right way to do things. Or at least, that's my way.

However, given your dismissive answer, we may have very different way of doing things.

So I will not bother you with questions anymore, I'll keep chugging along exploring and understanding the system, then post a detailed explanation of my "convoluted" solution on reddit when I'm done.

Have a nice day
