Question Engineering Mode hidden functions...

Ok so the shell launcher is still part of the Engineering App on our phones... can anyone or has anyone figured out how to trigger it?

This is the ONLY root vulnerability that exists for any Tmobile 10Pro / 10T bought after August 2022. Getting access to this shell is critical because it will be a default root, or root permission shell. And because it is for an app in the System partition, it will have exclusive access to the main system partition which will allow the ability to modify tthe build.prop file, at least enough to set ro.adb.secure to 0, and ro.secure to 0.... Then make the same changes to persist.ro.secure to 0 and persist.ro.adb.secure to 0. These commands can be issued with the debug root shell, simply by using the "setprop" command, while running with the authority of the system apps permissions.
