Same problem - if *you* can install a custom android build on the device, someone else can probably install theirs over the top of it. The exception would be if the manufacturer gives you a unique key to go with your (large) lot of devices, or if you successfully exploit a device that will only accept signed code, modify it to only accept your updates, and patch the hole you got in through. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
