Error gsm whith boost.

I need a .sfb from Sprint, .zip won't accept them. I ruined my phone, I just could install 1FF-p3_kronos_cdma_kronos-user-2.3.5-4.5.1-KNS-29-BST-15-18-release-keys-signed-Boost-US and won't let me root it. I'm in Colombia, and I need something without sim lock

I erased important system files when rooting, no update.zip package worked from recovery mode. The only thing I could do was use "1FF-p3_kronos_cdma_kronos-user-2.3.5-4.5.1-110-KNS-46-49-test-keys-signed-Sprint-US". The phone boots normally, but when put sim card, in gsm mode, restarts over and over, I don't know what else to do, please help me

When I wrote this, I tried with 720-kronos] in recovery mode, always showed error, or with other one that says update.zip, maybe I'm doing it wrong, besides it is rooted, how and with which programs should I install it? I'm sorry, I'm new at this, thanks.

How do I install this? MotorolaXprt.zip? I already have the Boost rom to repair the GSM?

I Can't root Boost Rom to fix GSM, please help me.

Need help flashing xprt

Ok guys, Ive come to wits end with this phone. My cousin did something to her phone, now it lists the bootloader screen. I ave been up and down the threads, downloaded all SBFs, tried flashing, and all either fail with error verifying checksums 33 or 31. I cant get anything to flash using RSD. check drivers, check version of RSD, i am running windows 8 64 bit, there are not many config options in RSD and i cant seem to find the error log. I have a factory cable, and a regular one. both have given me the same problem. AT WITS END! PLEASE HELP ME RECOVER THIS PHONE!

Hi! I'm a noob.

I got bored the other day (literally 2 days ago) and decided I wanted to delete a Nascar app from my XPRT because it was annoying me. Of course, that led to rooting my phone, which I did successfully after about 6 hours. Since then, I've been gradually figuring out various interesting things--who knew I was running an Android called Gingerbread? Well, I know all of you would have, but I didn't, so that was a fun discovery...

I've had a little Linux experience, which helped me get a few things figured out; I've got Orbot and Wireless Tether working, and I think I've got a basic grasp of my free Root Explorer knock-off. I really appreciated the list of safe-to-uninstall apps in this thread. I tried for several hours to set up SSH tunneling, but I have now concluded that I can't do that because of the kernel(?). I'd like to try flashing a custom ROM, but I haven't found one with an idiot-proof guide yet.

Anyway, the reason I mention all of this is to say that I'm going to be lurking around here for a while, if the thread stays somewhat active, and I'm happy to be helpful if possible. And if anyone has any tips for interesting things that can be done with this poor, unsupported phone, I'd be very interested to hear them!

problem

Hi, I have a problem after I installed CyanogenMod 9 I tried to install fixes with droid 2 bootstrap recovery, but after I restart occurs only "M" on motorola droid and not get into recovery but the old one there gives the following error "E: signature verification failed Installation aborted. "
[Droid Pro General] IllNinoChild:
please, tell me, is it possible to return on stock 2.2.2 (with MotoBlur theme), if now i'm using cyan7?!

because on russian forum i was said it's impossible to do xD
[Droid Pro General] jklung84:
They are correct, Once you flash to 2.3 you cannot go back to 2.2 without messing up the phone.

As far as I know the only way to revert it would be to send it back to Motorola, and possibly con them into sending you one that hasn't been updated yet.

Hey, folks! I buy a motorola xprt in USA and the signal was perfect in that country, but since a few months ago i went to my country ((Ecuador)) And i can see problems with signal, when i insert a sim card, the phone restart when power on, and i can not use my sim card in my phone, i really need help, please!! :'(:crying:

Root and put CM7

Hi,

The XPRT's stock ROM is buggy. As you are using out of US, I suggest you root your XPRT and install CM7 ROM. It is smooth and works perfect! I did the same and using in India. Follow the below thread:

unbrick on mac

Just curious if someone has a unbrick guide for this phone using a mac?
[Droid Pro General] Keph:
You can try sbf_flash, it works with macs.

You'll need to boot you phone into bootloader mode first by holding Volume Up + Volume Down keys when turning on.
[Droid Pro General] geobear:
Ok, I picked up a Sprint XPRT on ebay, only to receive it & discover that it had been turned into a Boost phone. Then I brought it with me to Nicaragua & put in a local SIM card & it appears that it recognizes the card, but also goes into a loop of rebooting itself anytime the card is installed. So as per these instructions (and some others I found), I copied the MotorolaXprt.zip file to the root of the SD card, and I held down R & M while powering up, then the @ & the volume keys to get to the system recovery menu. I chose "apply update from sdcard" & selected the zip file. But I get an error of "E:signature verification failed. Installation aborted." Then I realized I had skipped the step of downloading Droid2 Bootstrapper, so I installed that & tried again & still got the same results. Any other ideas? I'm not used to digging quite this deep into phones, so please be patient with me.
[Droid Pro General] rongsang:
You have to root your phone for the droid2 bootstrapper to work
[Droid Pro General] Boki_Srb:
Ok, without SIM:

- launch Droid2 Bootstrapper, install ClockWorkMode

- reboot in CWM mode (again, meny in D2B)

- before applying MotorolaXprt.zip, turn off signature verification (in CWM)
[Droid Pro General] geobear:
I looked up directions on rooting the phone, and it seems to have worked! No more bootloop! Yay!

*sigh* But now the email app seems to have disappeared, and when I try to dial *72536 to check the amount on my card, it doesn't do anything but tell me "call forwarding function is not allowed while roaming".
[Droid Pro General] rongsang:
I think I left out the email app on the rom. I use the gmail app anyway .
[Droid Pro General] geobear:
Ok... so does anyone know how I can get the email back, since I DON'T use the gmail app? The crazy thing is that email notifications are still showing up in the status bar, but when I try to open them, they just disappear (like normal) and then nothing else happens.

And does anybody have any idea what's going on with the call forwarding thing? I'm not trying to forward anything and I don't THINK I should be roaming. But I do need to be able to dial that number. I've tried playing around with various Settings changes, but still no luck.
[Droid Pro General] nonono666:
hello, is there cifs.ko or fuse.ko compiled for xprt? does insmod work on 2.3.5 kernel?
[Droid Pro General] geobear:
I think this must have something to do with the fact that call forwarding usually involves "*72", which is the first part of the number I need to call. But on this global network, this number has nothing to do with call forwarding. Is there any way to convince my phone that the call forwarding code is different here? I also have an HTC Touch Pro 2, and it lets me dial the *72536 number without any problem, so I know it's not an impossibility for all phones...

Any chance you could make a copy that includes the email app? It was working really well for me & I'd really like to find a way to get it back.

Sprint XPRT - Enable US GSM for AT&T

OK, I've been researching this for hours.

I have a Sprint Motorola XPRT. It does not work with SIM cards for US GSM carriers such as AT&T. I know that is because Motorola, at Sprint's request, did something to the radio firmware to disable it. I get it. But what I want to know, is has anyone been able to hack, flash, patch, or otherwise do something to the radio firmware to get around this? Is it even possible to modify the radio firmware? I have seen hints that it is possible and that people have succeeded, but I can't seem to find anything definitive or any real instructions. Is there any sort of program I can run or image I can flash, or an unlock code that will allow me to use my Sprint XPRT on the US AT&T GSM* network? Can someone pretty pretty please (with chocolate icing on top) please point me to it? Or is it just hopeless?

* Actually, my carrier is h2o wireless, but they use the AT&T network

Thank you!:fingers-crossed:
[Droid Pro General] rongsang:
I think I wrote somewhere on how to try unlocking the radio but I haven't tried it myself. Flash the radio from froyo and unlock it with the radio unlock zip file. Method is same as for other motorola phones.

Any sysctl/kernel optimizations for the XPRT?

Hey guys, don't know if anyone's still lurking around in this forum. I haven't been here much myself since the days of simply getting the XPRT upgraded to 2.3.5, but unfortunately I'm still stuck with this device for the time-being. I've seen that CM7/9 have been experimented with for the XPRT, but from reading those posts it doesn't sound like either build is too stable on this phone.

So I'm just wondering if anyone knows some optimal sysctl/kernel tweaks for the XPRT, because most of the tweaking-apps available today either don't support a phone this old, or the "minimum" tweaks that can be applied with these apps is still too much for the XPRT to handle. I'm just talking about the basic stuff here, like the best OOM profile for the XPRT and perhaps some VM optimizations like profiling, garbage-collection and heap size, or whatever...

I have the tools to edit the build.prop and change the kernel settings, but the problem is there was never really much of a tweaking community for the XPRT, so you really can't find any info online about what the optimal settings would be. Anyone able to help me out, or point me to the direction of similar settings for a comparable phone like the Droid Pro that you think would work fine on the XPRT?

I'm just trying to get this old bastard to run a little smoother with today's apps and games, at least for another 6 months or so, until I can finally pick up a newer phone. Thanks!

Bootloader Version

Could someone who has an MB612 XPRT check their bootloader version and post it here? I am curious if it is compatible with the XT610 Droid Pro, which would make for some curious possibilities.
[Droid Pro General] chaihg:
Hello All,

Sory fro deviating but this is the only thread I found for XPRT. A person in US who is selling promises that this will work in europe with any sim card. Can I buy this?.

I have a defy and am pretty good with basic modding motorola phones. I will be able to help the community if I am able to get this phone for my use.

Regards
[Droid Pro General] jeffegg2:
It will work, but some have said that you may need help from sprint for it. To work with ALL sim cards there. Or root the phone with oneclick.
[Droid Pro General] chaihg:
Hi,

thanks for the reply. I have no problems rooting this. But can it be unlocked with rooting? Any link to brief me on that?
[Droid Pro General] maxpower7:
Hey all,

I just got my XPRT a couple days ago and have already rooted it and installed CWM thanks to the fantastic info in this thread. I was able to successfully perform a Nandroid backup, but it gives me an issue with the MD5 sum when I try to restore the bacup I made.

Also, it's not letting me create Titanium backups of all the system apps / bloatware. It shows that it created a backup, but the backup isn't there when I attempt to restore the app.

Any thoughts on how I might be able to solve these 2 issues?
[Droid Pro General] jeffegg2:
Did you run superuser?
[Droid Pro General] maxpower7:
Yep. Superuser is a go.
[Droid Pro General] jeffegg2:
Did you install droid 2 recovery bootstrap?
[Droid Pro General] maxpower7:
Yeah. Installed Droid 2 Bootstrapper, bootstrapped the recovery, flashed ClockworkMod, the whole shebang. Honestly though, the only real reason that I root my phones is to flash new ROMs, and there appears to be zero developer interest in this phone. So I decided I really have no need to go through the hassle of trying to get everything to work. I went ahead and unrooted. Best of luck to you all!
[Droid Pro General] el6006:
Thats great that you were able to install CWM and root the device. At this time, there is basically, as you have stated, zero dev support for the XPRT but in time, someone may step up. Look at CM7 for the Droid Pro. Anyways, I have the Pro and at least being rooted is great as it allows for use of great rooted apps such as SetCPU which I love as it helps with battery life.
[Droid Pro General] sparkyxda:
Improted a BNIB XPRT to the UK and it works with Virgin Mobile sim.

Thread seems to have gone dead on us xprt owners. Well just a few things i wanted to post:

1) I am loving this phone. I came from an EVO, which I loved too, just needed a phone with a physical keyboard.

2) I have emailed motorola about the locked bootloads. Dont think anything will change but can't hurt. I will keep ya all posted on what i hear back.

3) kinda weird but i had my xprt plugged in and shut it down. When i went to reboot for some reason it would only boot in CWM. Even hitting reboot phone from CWM would only reboot into CWM. Nothing a battery pull didn't fix. Just figured I would share.

4) I hope we can keep this thread going. I would love to start developing and i think this would be a great device to develop for.

Well thats about it. I hope you all are enjoying this phone as much as I am. Catch ya on the flip side.
[Droid Pro General] VegasRooted:
Booting to CWM

MedicStuder:

I noticed that when the phone if off and plugged in and you go to boot it up, it automatically boots to CWM like you said...It only seems to do this when it is plugged in. If you unplug it then boot it, it should boot normally...

VegasRooted

PS- Thanks for emailing Motorola about the bootloader, you never know!

PSS- I also came from the Evo, for the same reason as you...and I love the XPRT too! :)

Cheers!
[Droid Pro General] MedicStuder:
I am still waiting to hear from motorola. I figure i will give it a few more days before i email again.

Also, do you have any development experience. If so it would be awesome if we could team up. I will be honest i have not developed yet. I have been trying to read up to learn.
[Droid Pro General] mjgerrard:
My XPRT is stuck at UK Customs at the moment, but hoping to have it turn up any time soon - can't wait!

Any word from a mod giving us our own subforum yet?
[Droid Pro General] bsweetness:
I wouldn't expect to hear anything beyond the typical PR response, if anything at all. They haven't unlocked the bootloaders on any of their phones that came with locked bootloaders. And even if they do decide to start unlocking them, I have a feeling that the Droid Pro and the XPRT will be way down the list as far as being priorities. So I wouldn't hold my breath.
[Droid Pro General] mjgerrard:
Still stuck in customs after 4 days. It would have been faster to go and get it myself!
[Droid Pro General] sparkyxda:
Don't panic, mine was in 4 days too. Then another 2 days for ParcelForce to get it to my local distribution centre.

If you have a USPS tracking number it will work on the ParcelForce website. As soon as you see it booked in to your local centre get yourself down there with a credit card. No need to wait for them to post you a letter.

My customs charges were £29. Half for VAT and the other half for ParcelForce admin.

Good Luck.

Is there any word on a Stock SBF being leaked
[Droid Pro General] mjgerrard:
So mine finally turned up from the USA! Overall its a nice phone, but the screen is definitely a departure from my old Galaxy S2. Keyboard is lovely though.

I have the same problem as other users where the hands free activation program boots up when turning the phone on. The phone is unusable for around 12 minutes when turning it on! If anyone might have some suggestions on how to sort this out it'd be appreciated!

Mike.
[Droid Pro General] sparkyxda:
As soon as the Sprint animation finishes and the 'activating services' screen appears hold down the power key and choose 'airplane mode'. This will make the handsfeee activation stop with a warning. Dismiss the warning then turn off airplane mode.

If you need to restart the phone turn on airplane mode before you shut down.
[Droid Pro General] MedicStuder:
I haven't experienced this problem. I would call sprint. Sounds like its a problem with your account sending that to ur phone. Mine will say starting services when it boots up but mine is normally ready to go in a matter of minutes.
[Droid Pro General] sparkyxda:
Mike and myself have both imported our xprts to the UK without any activation on Sprint. We don't have Sprint accounts and use a UK GSM sim. I've rooted my phone but can't find which app to deactiavte to stop handsfree activation when the phone is booted.

Any suggestions welcome.
[Droid Pro General] mjgerrard:
The problem we have is that i, and a few others here, have imported the phones as new into other countries so there is no way to get on the sprint network to activate the phone for the first time out of the box. I have a sprint sim card that came with it but I guess sprint would just fob us off as not being a customer...

This is a n00b question for sure, but how do you restore .APKs you've moved/deleted.

I rooted (didn't install ClockWorkMod), and moved Apps to my SD Card. I now need to restore some of them (LatinIME.apk to get back HW KB Prediction). I've put them back in /system/app using Root Explorer, but rebooting the phone doesn't do anything.

What do I need to do to 'reinstall' these apps back?

Thanks.

Nevermind: Installed SwiftKey and it's works really well, better than the stock prediction. Carry on with the thread. :p
