Hi Ish61,

I followed the rooting method here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1049901#

Its pretty involved so if your new to rooting I would read through before jumping straight in :) also bear in mind that to do this you will have to unlock the bootloader... so I would also make sure you understand how to relock it in case it has to go for any warranty repairs.. tbh even if you relock the your xoom I have a feeling motorola will still have a way of knowing ;)

Relocking info and files can be found here: http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/

And don't forget that this method will wipe all your data. Works a treat though.. I've had no probs.

I just want 3.1 now! :D
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ish61:
Hi enition ,

Thanks for all your help....worked a treat.

now just 3.1 update.

Please let me know when you hea something, thanks again.

Hi,

I want to unlock a xoom MZ601 (I'll leave rooting for later...) so I can use it with any SIM. After reading here I know I have to becarfull because this is a European version.

Can I use any of the guidances to unlock even if they are for a US version or the wifi only model?

Is there any difference in the process or files to be used?

Thanks in advanced!!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] citifone:
I followed your instruction and it worked...THANKS..I have 2pcs of Xoom, both had the same problem, euro 3g, baseband unknown..One works fine now after flashing back 3.0.1 stock but the other still has no 3g and unknown baseband..it originally sold in Australia..Why you think this one doesn't work? I'm hesitate to try to flash the Verizon 3g because it might lock the phone after flash..

I have the Gz one Commando from Verizon.

Rooted it to get rid of some of the pre-loaded stuff.

Installed and performed back up with Titanium backup.

I must have deleted a system file or an app needed because the phone no longer has service and I can't enter into messaging.

I tried to restore with Titanium backup to no avail.

This problem prevents me from running the system reset function.

How do I load the FILE DUMP folder thats posted at the top of this thread back onto the phone?

I need a detailed description of this process please.

Thanks for posting this. I just downloaded it. I managed to slightly screw up a Casio Commando after rooting it and deleting some of the Verizon bloatware. I wish I'd never done anything with that phone. I'd like to just reset it to the way it was originally, just stock M130.

Is there a way to do that with the copy of "/system" that you've provided? You're saying that the launcher doesn't work with this copy?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[Atrix 4G General] haloimplant:
Indeed I saw a presentation from a guy who worked for a major phone hardware company recently about recent advances in 'locking down' hardware. They are getting better and closing more loopholes with every generation. 2048-bit encryption, complete trust chains, burying sensitive traces, chip-swapping detection and on and on. Even digging right into the hardware it is getting harder and harder to find weaknesses if the manufacturer is determined to lock something down.

If you look at older phones like Droid X and Milestone that still haven't cracked there is almost no chance the Atrix has a weakness unless someone majorly goofed or there is a leak.
[Atrix 4G General] tsouza:
Well there is one 4th option that I think that what devs are trying to do and, IMO, is the real meaning of cracking: Finding a security hole and exploit it.

But as haloimplant already mentioned that's highly unlike to happen...
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
Unfortunately nothing said was news to me. I gave up a long time ago when my Milestone never got cracked.

Mods still make the phone fun, but it's night and day different of what you can do with say a Galaxy S...
[Atrix 4G General] Jotokun:
Until applications stop supporting Froyo/Gingerbread/ICS/whatever the final update Motorola pushes is, I dont see the need for a custom kernel. Stuff like 2init that allow everything but the kernel to change would be enough for almost everything you'd want to do. As long as Motorola pushes semi-recent kernels, we should be ok.
[Atrix 4G General] PixoNova:
From what I've read, in the bootloader bounty topic, we have something close to release.

Bootloader might not ever get cracked completely, but there are certainly ways around it. Look at the iPhone, they can modify it with various levels of exploits. (iBoot, ramdisk, userland) and they don't have it cracked completely.

Also, number 3 on that list could be pure speculation, or it could be complete truth. There could be hundreds of people that know it, or just 1.
[Atrix 4G General] Tylerjd:
+1. Us Atrix users obviously don't have the userbase that iDevices have, but we have the *new* nVidia chipset, there are bound to be holes. Some talented dev needs to find it. But we have like 1/20 the users that iDevices have. And like 1/1000 of those are devs. But coming as a jailbreak dev on the iPhone. Im gonna take a plunge and see myself.

Sent from my screaming Atrix *4G* using the XDA App
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
Motorola will have an "Official Gingerbread" out this year. Will they have an "Official ICS"? Highly doubtful

There will be partial ICS available through mods, but why play the waiting game when the update is available and easy to flash? Most of the waiting is for sales/marketing purposes anyway.

^ Look at the HTC Desire, Froyo was available to be installed early last summer. One major carrier didn't release it till Halloween. Guess what, the "Official version" was the exact same as the leaked version (I used both to compare). Then there's the T-mobile Galaxy S "Froyo incident" (which everyone knows that story by now). Verizon Fascinate, (the list goes on and on).

The average Joe will sit around and wait for an OTA, but the average XDA user knows better.

That's why any exploits found on the Bootloader will still better than nothing... :)

Hi! I have a problem regarding bluetooth transfer. I want to send files from Atrix to my laptop but it won't work even if it showed paired and connected to media. However, I can send files from my laptop to Atrix using bluetooth without a problem. Do i need to be rooted to do this? :confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
No you shouldn't have to be rooted to transfer files via BT. Have you tried the Phone Portal app that came on the Atrix? Open the app and select "connect with wifi", in your computers browser enter the ip address shown on your phones screen. Thats it! You should now have access to the files on your Atrix via your web browser.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanming:
Thx.. somehow i fixed the bluetooth issue myself. and, using bluetooth to connect atrix to laptop is way faster than the phone portal one
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
Good you got it working! Its takes me about 20 seconds from opening the phone portal app to typing the ip in my browser, not bad. The advantage of phone portal over bt is the 'file explorer' - bt only allows transfers not exploring; with phone portal you can see the files/folders and thats a huge advantage to me.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanming:
I can also use bluetooth to explore my files on atrix also. Somehow opening the ip address is very slow for me
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
How do you do explorer over bt? Is it software on the computer or?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanming:
I downloaded the "bluetooth file transfer" from the market which enables FTP. Then i go to device manager and find my bluetooth card and enables the FTP in it. When I enabled tthe FTP, it will install a driver. Then go to control panel-> bluetooth devices-> MB860, press connect in the phone operations then "browse files on your phone" will show up. Then you just click it and then you can explore it.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basslevel:
I have a T-Mobile G2, rooted with s-off. When I try to flash a ROM in zip form via ClockworkMod 3.0.2.4 I am confronted with an "Installation Aborted" message. On top of this problem, I cannot get back to my previous ROM (Cyanogenmod 7.0.3), getting stuck on the HTC screen as the phone is booting. I got rid of my original 8 gb SD card and put in another 8 gb one thinking it would solve my problems, then toyed with SD partitioning in ClockworkMod, which then led to this issue. Before both of these problems my GPS had stopped working and my data and wifi connection speeds had been drastically reduced (to the point of being useless) when I made the upgrade from the last Cyanogenmod release candidate to 7.0.0 stable. Are there any solutions to this problem, or is my phone pretty much bricked? Please help.

A lot of people will probably just post "do your research and find the best ROM that suits you", so I suggest you head over to the SD development forums, read the feedback of the more popular ROMs and find one that appears to be fast, stable and good on battery.

Hi All,

I`ve just purchased a NS and I want it to be rooted. It was quite easy on my previous phone (SG3), but now I`m unable to find any guides to do this without unlocking the bootloader.

Actually flashing a custom ROM, such as CM7 would be the next step but I can live with this original one(2.3.4), but rooting is vital, I`m unable to live without eg. titanium backup, but also need the 2 years warranty...

Do you have any idea for solving this?

Thanks in advance.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
You can try the Gingerbreak exploit. Other than that I know of no way without unlocking the bootloader.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
No. I thought the Gingerbreak exploit might have been fixed in 2.3.4 but I wasn't sure. I don't know of any other way without unlocking the bootloader.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
Why don't you unlock the bootloader? It is not like the nexus one. The bootloader can be locked again at ur wish with the command : fastboot OEM lock

You can unlock the bootloader, flash your recovery, flash your rom and lock it up again if that is your wish.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fishmong3r:
This would be fine if this is not causing warranty issues.

To be honest I've read somewhere in this forum that unlocking the bootloader is irreversible and voids the warranty.

So please repose me.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dharmil007:
i'Ve read that in the previous post too.

anyOther way ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
None that I'd know of, maybe someone got a private hardware approach/mod, but that I highly doubt.

Gingerbreak before 2.2 (I think) or unlocking bootloader via fastboot oem unlock.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
This really shouldn't be a huge concern.

Look at the language on the unlock screen. Unlike the Nexus One which stated unlocking voids the warranty the Nexus S language has been tweaked to indicate unlocking *may* void your warranty.

Even with unlocked bootloaders HTC honored the warranty on the Nexus One for hardware issues. Don't expect to unlock, root, leave the LED on high for 20 minutes and then try to send it in for repair when it burns out though.
