Edit: Just realised that you may not know what the abbreviation "etc" means. If that's the case, it is an abbreviation for the term et cetera, which means "and other things" or "and so forth".

No problems with my phone so far. I just avoid tampering with system apps that may cause irreversible problems (such as Android System, Settings, and MotoSwitch). Some system apps are no longer functional, but they can easily be made functional again by using Link2SD to "remove link" and convert them back to system apps.

I now have 105MB of free internal storage (with 52MB used).

Also, note that you want to use the "Create link" function in Link2SD not "Move to SD card". "Move to SD card" uses the system's native apps2sd method which is not as effective as that of Link2SD's.

To give you an idea of things, here's a list of what system apps I've converted to user apps and have linked to the SD card and how they've been affected:

Browser – No longer functional. Opens but does not load webpages. That's easily reversed via Link2SD and then becomes fully functional again.

Email – No longer works. At start-up, I get a message that it has crashed. Easily reversed.

FM Radio – Works as normal.

FQC program – I believe this is an app used for quality checking at the factory, so I've never used it.

Gmail – Works as normal.

Google Play Store – Appears to work as normal.

Maps – Works as normal.

Moto [Chinese characters] (com.motorola.inputmethod.gpinyin) – Never used it, so don't know.

Moto Smart Handwriting – Never used it, so don't know.

News & Weather – No longer functional. Opens but does not work.

People Centric – No longer functional. When trying to add the widget, it places a message as the widget stating "Problem loading widget".

Qik Video – Never used it, but it fails to open. So it's no longer functional.

RSS Reader – No longer functional.

Street View – Never used it.

Swype – Can still be used. Just need to go into Language & Keyboard settings and tick it.

Talk – Appears to work as normal.

Voice Search – Works as normal.

Weather – Fully functional. Widget can still be added to home screen and used without problem.

YouTube – No longer functional.

Maybe he flashed the XT532 SBF to his phone. Or maybe Motorola has finally released 2.3.7 for our phone.

What is the exact build number, baseband version, kernel version?

[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
Information for beginners

A quick overview: Locked bootloaders, ClockworkMod, CyanogenMod, and why we failed

Introduction:

Originally, all Android phones were sold with unlocked bootloaders. This allowed developers to replace the stock recovery with a custom one called "ClockworkMod". With a locked bootloader, you CANNOT replace (flash) anything to the phone or you'll hard brick it.

ClockworkMod allows developers and users to flash custom ROMs such as "CyanogenMod". The stock recovery does NOT allow flashing any software unless its signed by the OEM.

[NB: "recovery mode" is basically an app loaded from a small

separate

partition. It allows flashing software, ROMs, erasing and reformatting partitions]

Not too long ago, some companies (Motorola, HTC, Sony Ericsson) decided to lock their bootloaders to prevent users from messing with their phones, due to the (presumed) risks associated with modifying the original software. This has caused outrage among developers and users. Samsung was smart enough to leave the bootloader unlocked, and has thus won the loyalty of its users and developers - and made HTC and Sony Ericsson very jealous :D

In response, HTC and Sony Ericsson made tools for unlocking the bootloader at the expense of voiding the warranty. This was promised by Motorola too, but so far Motorola has not delivered on its promise.

2nd-init:

As you now know, flashing a custom recovery to the stock "recovery partition" while the bootloader is locked will hard brick your phone. This is where 2nd-init comes in.

2nd-init is a dirty hack allowing devs to load ClockworkMod from the system partition instead of the recovery partition (leaving stock recovery intact).

This has many disadvantages:

- Can't repartition the phone to make use of wasted space (such as the unused 60MB cache partition on our phone).

- Can't install custom kernel, modify boot scripts etc..

- Can't even format system partition to change file system (have to erase it recursively when installing CyanogenMod).

So where are we in this whole mess?

Unfortunately "no where". Installing 2nd-init requires the presence of a hijackable binary loaded by the init.rc. Our phone does not have one. I have worked with GentyLamp (dev from the XT316 thread) to get 2nd-init to work on our phone but all efforts failed.

The ONLY way to get ClockworkMod on our phone now is to unlock the bootloader, compile CWM and flash it to the stock recovery partition - just like the good old days.

So what now?

Nothing!! We just wait and hope that Motorola listens to its users and unlocks our bootloaders.

I know I have probably disappointed many people, but I just wanted to make things clear to you guys.

Please correct me if I'm wrong about something
[General Questions and Answers] Roqu3:
Mmmm so even with 2init there can't be custom kernels, that's bad because this kernel is very bad, the stock ROM is not that bad, with another launcher does well, also to get official cm7 we need to change kernel because cm7 use it's own kernel with their modifications and improvements, so i think the only way to improve this phone is to unlock the bootloader.

[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
To get CM7.2 we'll need

any

2.6.35 kernel. This'll be easy since we've already extracted that kernel from the XT532. All we need now is the unlocked bootloader to be able to flash it :)
[General Questions and Answers] Roqu3:
In my lg p500 cm7 uses their own 2.6.35 kernel which is different from the .35 kernel that comes by default from lg, their are similar but cm kernel has their own customizations but both use the same device drivers. But if you use lg .35 kernel you get some heavy bugs

I use cm7 on my p500 and I use a modded (by me) lg kernel so i think i know something about that.

I already downloaded xt531 kernel sources but doesn't compile, i think Motorola didnt release full source or maybe is different to build a Motorola kernel than a lg kernel, also i didn't found xt532 kernel sources

Has anyone in Brazil managed to update their phones to 2.3.5? Motorola Software Updater says there is no update for my phone, but it also does not show the model number and serial number, so I think something is wrong. I think it can't find the number for some reason, then it says there is no update. This happened to anyone else in the world? If so, how did you solved it? Thanks!

Alguém no Brasil conseguiu atualizar o seu aparelho para 2.3.5? O Motorola Software Updater diz que não há atualização disponível, mas ele também não mostra o número do modelo e nem o serial, então acredito que algo está errado.

[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
Sorry if I offended you. I know you are much more experienced than me in this whole thing.

I was merely implying that it would be easier to use the kernel we already have, rather than compile the kernel from scratch, add CM7 modifications.
[General Questions and Answers] Roqu3:
No problem dude I didn't feel offended, just telling that the stock kernel is modded for the stock ROM, to build cm7 and get official support it's kinda necessary to mod the kernel

I just can't believe this!!!

I just found out that the GPU on our phone is disabled by default :( :( :(

Force enabling it gave me "unbelievably" smooth graphics. Text no longer fades and blurs while scrolling. Also, the occasional lag I get while playing some games seems to have gone.

However, the graphics drivers are very old and buggy which causes major graphics artefacts. Thats probably the reason Motorola has disabled the GPU.

Motorola, in their ultimate wisdom, decided to disable the GPU altogether instead of updating the kernel, and adreno200 libs

To try this, change the following in build.prop:

NB: screen will keep turning white while navigating thru system menus. Taping the screen will bring it back to life.

And before someone asks, no we can't update the libs either as they require the Gingerbread kernel (.35) while we have the Froyo kernel (.32)

"Failed flashing process. Unable to retrieve interface handle. (0x7027).

Please help me to solve this problem because now i'm without mobile. Thanks so much.
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
Theoretically, your firmware is older. However, your firmware seems very unique. You have a different baseband version (DMQ) and a higher secure version (4). I don't think any SBFs posted here would work for you.

What country are you from? Is your phone the XT530/531 or XT532 (dual-sim)? Whats your kernel version?

I actually think the only SBFs that would work for you would be the 2.3.7 ones for the XT532.

Is it possible to "fastboot boot <image file>" in fastboot mode? NOTE! I'm telling about "fastboot boot", not "fastboot flash". Is there anyone who's able to try this?
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
Won't work because of the locked bootloader :(

I tried "booting" a different recovery and a different boot image (kernel) but neither worked.
[General Questions and Answers] sliper123:
And what can you say about booting from original recovery image? Does it work? I'm asking, because there has been a problem to boot from the original image on Gigabyte GSmart G1345 and G1355 models too. But in fact phone was booting, but with touchscreen turned off. So we were able to put an autoupdate config to SDCard and finally flash a custom recovery as a part of ROM flashing process. So maybe here's the same situation...

Hi you all. Pleased to be here. Many thanks to everyone who figured out how to root this phone and make it work better. I rooted my XT531 and it's working fine :).

Only thing is, I rooted it because I wanted better control over apps installed and my internal memory, since I only had about 25mb free. But even after root, using link2sd, uninstalling some apps and moving some others to my sd card, I have 27mb free. How come?? :confused:

I find it even more odd since my brother also has a XT531, with just 2 or 3 user apps less, and he's got 69mb of free internal memory. His phone isn't rooted (yet). The only difference is: he's got an 8gb sd card, and I have a 2gb one. Could that be the reason? If not, then how can I free more space?

Hey there. I'm from Brazil and I wasn't able to update the phone either. The exact same thing happened to me. I believe that's because the 2.3.5 update isn't available over here, only in other places (europe and china, as far as I know), so I don't think we'll be able to update our phone, unless we flash a stock european rom.
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
I did something crazy and it finally worked:

Extracted XT530 SBF and XT532 SBF, copied bootsec.mbn (2.6.35 kernel), appsbootsec.mbn (bootloader) from the XT532 folder to the XT530 folder and recompiled the XT530. No other modifications were done (to prevent breaking signatures).

The result:

A Euro Fire XT SBF with the

newer 2.6.35

kernel which RSD detects as a "signed production" :eek: :D

Anyone here brave enough to try?!

If you wanna volunteer, make sure you have access to a nearby Motorola service center, and you still have warranty - just in case something goes wrong.

Send me a private message and I'll send you the link.
[General Questions and Answers] sid5291:
This looks promising ..!!! awesome work .!! :D !!! Lets hope this works .. Sorry i cant risk trying this though :( my warranty has expired .. but if anything happens shouldnt it be possible to flash the original SBF from RSD lite ?
[General Questions and Answers] Dr. Hurt:
Edit

I did more in-depth analysis of the images. By checking, comparing the last 1024 bytes of the secure mbn images, I found that there's a signature mismatch between the two SBFs. This won't brick the phone but it won't boot :/

I then thought about flashing the entire XT532 SBF to prevent the signature mismatch. The problem with this idea is that XT532 SBF has a higher secure version, which means that we won't be able to flash the XT530 SBF again (if something goes wrong).
[General Questions and Answers] porio:
I did this, and when launching some apps the screen stays white for several seconds (5-10) before showing the app. Quite annoying. Rebooting didn't solve it.

And with the FM Radio, I have to touch the screen to bring it back every time.

how to make scrolling faster? am coming from galaxy tab which is uber smooth in scrolling. just a little flick is enough. here on fire xt it needs a good flick, almost like pushing the screen aside. also flick scroll in browser, email, contact list is not smooth. i installed go launcher thinking it'll have some settings to smoothen & fasten the flick scroll but no use. pls suggest something

typing response it also very slow. how to improve?

[General Questions and Answers] sid5291:
You can't expect performance like the galaxy tab on this phone. For a smoother experience try to the GPU trick that 7amdoun has explained earlier..

Link2sd is the best alternative to getting more internal memory. Just get a good microsd card like class 4 or class 8.

This phone has good hardware but Motorola has really done a terrible job by putting a Froyo kernel and not giving us the correct drivers for the phone.. This is why the front camera will not be recognised by most softwares.

The only thing to do now is wait and hope we can port the newer kernel from the XT532 on to this phone... And then maybe start hacking cm7 roms to bot from our phone..

If you have any developing experience pls do try and help us out, if you any developer pls get them interested in this phone.

This phone is very good hardware wise but has terrible and buggy software and with Motorola's locked bootloader its a nightmare to try anything.
[General Questions and Answers] sid5291:
I'm speaking as a total noob here but can't you overwrite this last 1024 bytes with the original SBFs secure code?

And are you sure it won't boot then why would RSD lite recognise it as a secure SBF and allow flashing?
