Default OnePlus kills off backdoor

Full root privileges done dirt cheap.

OnePlus has announced that the portion of Engineer Mode that provided a backdoor to the phone will be removed in an upcoming update.

Mobile security researcher Robert Baptiste discovered that OnePlus smartphones had been apparently shipping for years with a hidden backdoor. Anyone with physical access could root a OnePlus phone with just a few lines of code.
