mikeymike75, thanks for trying to help.

I am using the DroidRazrRoot for ICS that is linked in the OP. Is there another?
[Xoom General] porkadian:
wont work

I have tried this method several times, I have a xoom mz601 with the ics update but all i get is operation not permited and read only file system....any ideas, or any other one click methods I can try, any help much appreciated
[Xoom General] mikeymike75:
I had that happen once to me and ended up doing a factory reset. It worked afterwards.
[Xoom General] rjkmadison:
Was that with ICS? I was thinking of a reset, but would be really frustrated if I did the reset and still couldn't root.
[Xoom General] rjkmadison:
Well, I did a factory reset and was able to root with the ICS OP method (DroidRazrRoot404).

Warning: Factory reset wipes ALL. I was surprised because my Galaxy S has internal "SDcard" that survives a reset.
[Xoom General] mikeymike75:
It was with the leaked version of ICS. There are some apps that will do a backup to your sdcard. Look for an Android folder, it will have some app data in it. Copy and paste that folder to your PC. It will be limited though and you will lose everything with no guarantee that it will work.

[Xoom General] mikeymike75:
Make sure you are using the right package in OP. You likely have ICS, that one uses the RAZR version. I think the XYZ is for something different.
[Xoom General] esanchesl:
worked

Tranks for the tip. I think I´ve downloaded the package from another place, after download the right one, my device ir rooted.

[Xoom General] Brendan9967:
Root

Worked great thanks. Perfectly on a 32gb Wifi Xoom.
[Xoom General] GuStAvO.*:
root xoom 2

This process works in mz616 (3g + wifi)? both as android 3.2 e 4.0.4?
[Xoom General] mikeymike75:
No. If you have ICS you will use the RAZR version. GB uses the xyz, I think.
[Xoom General] ICuaI:
Thank you for your work. Worked fine on my mz616 :good:
[Xoom General] grasuandrei:
thanks

today i rooted my mz616 using ICS method. too bad my tablet's bootloader is locked and i cant instal custom ROMs. it's working better than new.

Does not work on newer tablets

Android version: 4.0.4

After reboot of the tablet, the tablet just comes back up, no flashing occurrs..

the software tries reboot again and fails..

UPDATE: Hadn't selected "allow unknown sources".. Selected.. trying again..
[Xoom General] tkalfaoglu:
Still no go - it just gave me a bunch of errors.. SuExec is created on the desktop and works when clicked.

google play updated it even.. But when I try titanium backup root, it says root access: failed

and I do not get the usual "allow root?" dialog..

A little updated Xyboard info.

Looks like the Xyboard 8 & 10 (MZ609 & MZ617) will be getting Jelly Bean 4.1. As of yesterday, according to the Motorola Software Upgrade Time-line website.

And as for the bootloader and custom roms, Hashcode had developed Safestrap for Xoom2/Xyboard. It's working prefectly on my MZ617. I was able to Deodex, remove unwanted bloatware/system apps and use tweaks such as xposed framework and others to improve performance. I know its not CM9/CM10 but its a lot better than stock. IMHO :)

Holy crap, I just saw this Lol. I was just posting yesterday that I have lost hope for an upgrade but looks like its actually happening.

Out of curiosity, will I lose my v6 supercharge settings or does that usually carry over, if I do the whole temp root unlock?

Are you guys able to do a screenshot of what you can see?

All I see is "This device will remain on Android 4.0.4 (ICS)".

Yup, here you go

[Xoom General] lucasarran:
Great thanks. But I'm somewhat still have a feeling that it's a typo...I mean if they wanted to upgrade the Xyboard to Jelly Bean they would've said ages ago. However this afternoon I did notice an image of the Xyboard with 4.2 on it, but when I tried to find it again it's disappeared. Hopefully, they might be skipping to 4.1 for 4.2/4.3, but I'm not going to jump to anything.

Also I've sent this to Android Police so we can hopefully get some more attention in the press again.

EDIT: Here's a reply from a Android Police editor.

Jelly Bean here we go!

Hai All,

i'm newbie from indonesia :)

Just a couple day ago, motorola droid xyboard 8.2 MZ609 which i bought from ebay has arrived.

It's contain Android 4.40 ICS...But unfortunately its still lock with Verizon provider.

so, when I insert my local sim card (Indonesian Sim Card) it said This Sim Card is from unknown source

Please help me, there's anyother way to make me could using my country sim card.

thanks a lot before and so sorry for my bad english :)

ps : it's will be great if some master here would like to add my skype or my line account

[Xoom General] big ach:
That is weird because the Xyboard is a global tablet. Do you have gsm or global set under the network settings and not just CDMA?
[Xoom General] ID*x:
Yup, i set to gsm/umts or global but it not working

when i trying to manually search, it's detect gsm signal, but can't register.

really confuse. or there is something wrong with my sim card (i'm trying 2 different card from 2 different provider)

The Verizon's Droid Xyboard upgraded to Jelly Bean

So, after checking the Motorola site and other sites like Droid Life, the Verizon's Droid Xyboard

is getting upgraded to Jelly Bean, but it appears that the none carrier model of the Xyboard

is not getting upgraded to Jelly Bean. I have to Verizon Model so I really excited.
[Xoom General] foxmajik:
Make sure you're not running any applications that use ADB

Hi all,

I was having a problem where the root would fail with a bunch of Permission Denied errors, so I thought I'd post this update to help anyone else in my situation.

I was running an application called MyMobiler that uses an ADB session to communicate with the attached device. It was getting into a battle with the root app for who got to use ADB, killing the running instances of ADB the root app was running.

So, before you start make sure you stop any applications running on your computer that connect to your device with ADB.

Also, use this updated link:

[Link removed because of an error presented by the Forum software that I haven't been active enough.]

Don't click any of the Download buttons, they are all fake. Wait for the Capcha and fill it in, then you'll get the download.

Which phone model do I select for ClockworkMod recovery? I have the Xyboard mz617.
[Xoom General] NWKENT:
Friend..What are you attempting, wanting to do..?

Backup your XYBoard.?

Create ROM slots.?

Both..lol

Sent by my Motorola Droid XYBoard MZ617-16 10.1_ICS 4.04
[Xoom General] Brainfarth:
It's my green attempt at laying on a new ROM. This is possible, right? It wont take the new verizon update and reverts back to 3.2, which makes me wonder it was some kind of incomplete demo model.
[Xoom General] NWKENT:
Well..from what I interpreted, Your device is on Gingerbread 3.2..is your device Rooted.?

If so..this will be one reason your XYB will not take an OTA update..there are probably more reasons, to get the answer to more reasons why..search this forum..otherwise..the next step would be to upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS)..and to do so..there are ways to upgrade, search this forum for this also..

This is what I have done to four XYB MZ617's with Gingerbread..

I have the ICS 4.04 fast boot files..I have RSD Lite v6.1.4..on my laptop, and within minutes, I have a XYBoard MZ617 10.1 ICS 4.04, then Root, then Titanium Pro Root, then SafeStrap 3.11..

Hope this helps..

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrotherZero:
I bought the 2000mah extended battery kit to my S2. Since the charge is so slow on the S2(about 3-4hours) I can't top it up when I get home before I go out again. So I'm thinking about using the original battery and pop that in when I get home.

But how will the phone and battery indicator react to me constantly switching between two different sized batteries? Will it completely mess it up? Would it help if I wipe the battery stats every time I put in a new battery? Cause I thought a phone needed a couple of charges to learn the capacity of the battery?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Is all i do is to swap battery as needed

Wipe battery stats only if i want to read new battery stats .

Wipe battery stats plays no part in the calibration of SGS2 battery .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makrilli:
no it won't get messed up
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrotherZero:
Weird, I thought the phone needed to learn the battery before accurately displaying the battery levels.

But then I dont need to worry then.

Thanks for the fast replies!
[Motorola Photon 4G] whatthephoton:
So I just bought this Photon, and it will not vibrate. My settings are as follows: settings --> sound --> vibrate always is checked // text messages --> messaging settings --> also vibrate when notified is checked

I have tried two factory resets, one through UI, one through fast boot. I just did the OCR and tried it that way.. no luck. The phone does not vibrate on messages, haptic feedback, restarts, or phone calls.

Vibrate was, unfortunately, not top on my list of things to check before purchasing the damn thing. Now, I've got it, and I'd really love some help and direction. Thanks in advance

:beer:
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheChronicDroid:
are you able to volume down andset the phone to vibrate?
[Motorola Photon 4G] whatthephoton:
Yes, and it shows vibration mode, but no actual vibration... as I was playing around with it today, I noticed that there's something loose inside the casing of the phone that is moving around when I shake it. I'm beginning to think that this is a hardware issue... :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bit_Reaper:
Does it give you feedback when you type? If not, I would say its a hardware issue and you should take it back.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cleverdicky:
Hi, Im admittedly a bit thick when it comes to flashing, although I've done my sgs a few times now. But this time its much harder.

I had a go at slim ics and no phone (modem / network) and then a few others

Ive spent 2 days again reading up trying to remember stuff, but to be honest, its hard. And although I managed to reflash a really old set of files I had with odin and got it working again, as soon as I try a new rom- its back to square one.

I have to criticise a little the developers and posters :eek: even though I'm totally grateful and wouldnt even know where to start with all the work that they do, so total respect and thanks :cool: The problem (with me ) is not understanding the language. i.e. the phrases and one word explanations and even lack of plain english or info. Especially region stuff.

Sorry to be picky, but just a little friendly observation ;) .

So Im hoping some kind soul will spoon-feed me with a link to a rom + csc files I need to flash a new-ish lite rom. I really like the new ICS :) But MUST work for UK. I understand I need 'XXJPY' and XEU (is that GB)but can never get a separate modem, pit ? to work. I'm fine with various processes of it and following instructions.

I think there's also a general issue with many links now being dead (mega, file etc.) which doesnt help.

I still have imei and sim is OK, just doesnt work atm. I'm currently have a bit of a botched mix of android ver 2.3.7, for some strange reason i9000xxjvu, a 2.6.35 kernel running modver Cyan4tomorrow, with build gwk74.

But no working modem (with xxjvu) still, and its not that great to be honest.

Id just like a complete wipe and a good working nice lightweight upto date flash. :D

Thank you for reading and any reply.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cleverdicky:
Just a quick update.

Save anyone typing. I've managed to sort it, all by myself. :D

Oh the relief - :eek:

What I did was revert back to crappy old froyo or whatever, had to upgrade the boot loader used busybox (pit) odin, to change change it to allow me to apply the slim.zip Wouldnt let me before even renaming to update.

So then installed slim ics.

But no baseband again!!

so this time installed, copied, jpy.zip I found somewhere.

And it works on ics slim (thanks dev's) and now have a working phone as well

JPY was CRUCIAL for UK modem.

Now I know its easy, I hope this post will be here to read in six months when I try and do it all over again. :rolleyes:
[Fascinate General] xwhofarted:
LOL Best Part!

May i add

"3 finger salute"- slang; this refers to a way of getting into your recovery.[HOWEVER this method is not useful for MTD roms!] holding down the power Button, the volume up, and the volume down button. This could also be used for a phone that is frozen as well to initiate a reboot without pulling the battery.

I know it is in the cwm section but some older devs refer to it as that.

Plus we know most noobs get through one definition of this and TL: DR

But very well put together!! Kudos
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
"3 finger salute"

Done. Thanks. It's nice to hear feedback from experienced members.

[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
Well done sir! Between your glossary and my guide, new users will learn everything in a matter of a hour or so....If you look back a year ago this information may of taken a month to aquire.
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
Thanks. That means a lot. I may not have ever rooted if not for your guide. I'm all in now, though.
[Fascinate General] mezster:
Yup yup... took a lot of digging a year ago. Nice work.

This was a well thought out guide. I don't consider myself a noob anymore but I still learned a thing or two (like Nandroid).

I hope this gets stickied!
[Fascinate General] icemanwbs:
Nice thread ! I was extremely fortunate to fall under the good graces and guidance of Droidstyle when I ventured ( blindly) into the world of rooting and flashing. I can't even count how many times his guide saved my device. I ALWAYS reference his guide when I try to help people on here. Although it is sometimes frustrating asking " noob" questions in XDA ( flaming) , there are a great bunch of people on here that WILL help at least point you in the right direction . Kudos to the OP for writing this glossary! :D
[Fascinate General] Bob Tums:
Thank you very much. :)
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
Sticky it!
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
In all seriousness, this was an extremely well-written glossary, a valuable resource for the Fascinate community. Very impressive.

Terminators run on Android :cool:
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
Thanks, guys. I'm flattered. I never expected to have such big names even look at this, much less enjoy it.

I should point out to all the noobs reading this that most of the definitions in the glossary are created from the various forum posts of droidstyle, skynet11, neh4pres, xwhofarted, and others like them. Please be sure to use the 'Thanks' button under their names from time to time.
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
Oh, and nice variant, Skynet. I particularly enjoyed "Patch."
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
I'd love to, but I'm still not clear on the method or etiquette of having a thread stickied.

Should I request myself, or would it be better to have one of the more experienced members do so? I think the glossary has room for improvement (though I've reached the 30,000 character limit), so I'm fine to wait until it's more refined.

To do this correctly, I think we'd need to have droidstyle's guide stickied directly above it. A lot of the stuff at the top of the general section is a bit outdated anyway, so I think it would be a good idea to do it eventually.
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
Maybe copy and paste into a new thread and then claim a few posts before others can reply. Then you will have more room.. I'm sure it will be stickied sooner or later.
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
Will do. Thanks for the tip.
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
One thing Suppliesidejesus reminded me of: wiping data also wipes cache and Dalvik, so there's no need to "wipe 3x" - all you have to do is wipe data/factory reset.

Terminators run on Android :cool:
[Fascinate General] jawman27:
Dang. Is this widely agreed upon? Is it confirmed in tests from someone who knows how to read the code? I feel like I've seen a lot of big names suggest wipe X3 throughout the forums. I'll go ahead and update the definition, but I'd love to know more.

Also, I'll redo this in a couple of days following neh4pres's advice about grabbing a few post slots. That will give me more room to add in more terms and links.
[Fascinate General] xwhofarted:
Not 100% sure on this but it was kind of devs way of forcing people to wipe.

like some one saying: "wipe data, wipe data, wipe data......"
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
Grab more than you think you will ever use.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vzaliva:
I got Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket from AT&T rooted it and unlocked it using code purchased online. During unlock process I've inserted foreign SIM card and entered provided code. It seems to went OK and on subsequent reboots with this card it no longer asks for the code. The card is recognized and I see foreign phone number in Phone Info screen in Settings. However I noticed 2 problems:

1. The phone does not register on mobile network with non-AT&T SIM. The same SIM in old Nokia phone registers on T-Mobile network.

2. In Settings/Wireles&Networks/Mobile Networks/Network Operators I have only one greyed out item "Default Setup". I could neither change or add anything on this screen. I was expecting to be able to select manually mobile network there.

Anybody having similar problem? I am planning to travel aboard with this phone soon and I wan to be sure I will be able to use it with non-AT&T SIM overseas.

Thanks!
