An EDK2-based toolkit for patching EFI applications inside Qualcomm Android Bootloader (ABL) images, exploiting a GBL vulnerability to load a custom superfastboot BDS from the efisp partition. Its primary purpose is achieving a Fake Locked Bootloader state on Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 / 8 Elite devices to bypass bootloader unlock detection.

Use cases

  • patch qualcomm abl bootloader images
  • bypass bootloader unlock detection on snapdragon devices
  • fake locked bootloader on rooted android phone
  • boot custom efi boot entries from persist partition
  • build magisk or kernelsu module for bootloader patching
  • extract and patch firmware volumes from abl efi

When to choose

  • you have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 / 8 Elite device with an unlocked bootloader and a vulnerable ABL
  • you need to hide bootloader unlock status from apps that detect it
  • you want an on-device Magisk/KernelSU module workflow for bootloader patching

When to avoid

  • your device is not a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 / 8 Elite
  • your kernel enforces Baseband Guard
  • your ABL does not contain the GBL vulnerability and you cannot flash an older one
  • you need actively maintained software with ongoing support
