Can you get to your recovery? If you can get to rsd you might be able to recover by flashing sbf
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorealmighty:
Unfortunately the process as I described it above is how it happens. I dont get to choose which "mode" it goes to. It just depends on the action/button combination. It never progresses past that.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giqbal:
Well i think you need to flash sbf file in rsd mode. The sbf should be on the version you had originally or higher (if you were on 2.3.4 so don't flash 2.2.2 otherwise you'll hard brick). I might be wrong so someone else should confirm me before you proceed with it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorealmighty:
Not to sound like a broken record...but I'm not sure that that's possible. I don't have the option to choose. Unless you ate suggesting that from the available options I listed above I make an attempt.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giqbal:
You say in this post that when you boot normally the phone says "Starting RSD Mode". Im talking about using this mode to flash sbf…you can search the forums on how to flash sbf in RSD mode.

Also you'll need to charge your battery some way(battery can't charge without going into OS) before you flash.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorealmighty:
I'll give it a try, thanks :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorealmighty:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wreaks:
umm...

if you can get to working fastboot support you can probably recover.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501532

follow Alaq/ Uncle Cemka's method of flashing pudding via fast boot, I have recovered more than one phone this way, your going to need a way to charge your battery though, might have to buy an external battery charger, build a powered usb cable or cutup a cable and apply the + and - straight to your battery....you can search and find ways to charge your battery.

Also a little more info than just "Fail" would be helpful, did the RSD flash fail, is the phone just boot looping and going straight to RSD support or fastboot support? Error messages? it may not seem relevant but many of us have seen similar error messages and know different ways to get back to a working phone but we need more information from you to be able to help.

Also I have seen phones with the SVF:105.1:2 failed to boot error actually be accessible by RSD even when the screen did not mention RSD support was up...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] consolation:
You might need to strip the end of a USB cable and charge the battery directly. Another user posted instructions somewhere. I'm sure a quick google will reveal all.

I'm trying to root my stock Droid 4 using Motofail, and I can get to the beginning of the method but then all I get is this:

Motorola universal root script ($version version)

by Dan Rosenberg (@djrbliss)

Tested on Droid 3, Droid Bionic, and Droid RAZR

Before continuing, ensure USB debugging is enabled, that your

device is in charge only mode, and your phone is connected via USB.

Press any key to continue . . .

Waiting for device...

* daemon not running. starting it now *

* daemon started successfully *

My phone is all of those things listed, and as far as I know I haven't done anything incorrectly. Anybody know how to fix this?
[Motorola Droid 4] BPMOmega:
You do have the latest USB drivers from Motorola, right?

Aside from that and having USB mode in Charge Only, I personally can't think of any issues getting the root tool from starting up (but, hey, I'm no expert in this field).
[Motorola Droid 4] wynn55:
I was unable to find a Droid 4 ADB driver. Would a Droid RAZR one work?
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
You can just get the drivers straight from the motorola site. They aren't phone specific. And just to share by experience the root method didn't work for me the first time either so I just ran it again and it worked. Just make sure you have usb debugging enabled and your phone is in charge only mode.
[Motorola Droid 4] wynn55:
Thanks!

This seemed to do the trick! Thanks for the help. :D
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
I'm glad it worked for you
[Motorola Droid 4] OhioGuy67:
Is "Charge Only" the same thing as "USB Debugging" (the wording used in the Rosenberg instructions)? I'm thinking about getting a D4 and would want to root but I'm doing some research first.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 4] kmx2012:
No. "Charge Only" is the option you will select when you connect USB (you'll see a status notification that you can tap to bring up the USB mode dialog).

Enable debugging is selected in settings under "Developer Options".

I don't want people cheating by flashing a addon to enable it.

Go to about phone and show me you on LD3.

After you wakeup phone with widgetlocket, uninstall widget locker.

Then turn off screen, if phone can't wake up with volume key. Then you will get 25$ usd.

Sent from my bigass phone or whatever on ICS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
Ok. I followed a guide to do this because I hadn't compiled/decompiled .jar files before, so I can't take any credit. I link the guide down below.

So, what you need to know about this is it's not a super clean option. There's no way to disable the volume keys waking the phone short of putting the original files back in place (which is super easy, just not checkbox easy). I suppose if somebody cared enough, they could make a flashable zip that just pushed the files for enable/disable. For me personally, I have never had a desire to disable it, so this is a good enough solution as-is.

So after this mod, Volume keys will always wake the phone from sleep. I use widget locker and I don't need to enable easy wake or even have widget locker installed to wake the phone with volume keys (just so you get the idea).

We need to edit a couple of files.

The first is the Android.Policy.jar file. The file is in the /System/framework folder of your device.

We also need to edit the keylayout files so that the volume keys can wake the device. These files are in /System/usr/keylayout.

/***********************************************************************/

Here is the Guide I followed. This should walk you through everything needed to get this done. Props to xda user tbriden for the nice walkthrough.

Here is a link showing what the source code looks like where we make the edit. We don't have source, so that's why we have to use the smali/baksmali stuff and we end up with more machine oriented code to edit instead of nice clean source.

And here is some light reading on keylayouts.

/***********************************************************************/

I edited all of the keylayouts which contained the volume_up/down keys and set them to WAKE, but according to the keylayout stuff from google, WAKE_DROPPED should behave the same, but I'm not entirely sure on that one, so I stuck with "WAKE."

Also, I attached my edited files in a zip. They are from Team Objection Perfection ICS #1, but I think the android.policy.jar should work on any ICS so long as it's not tablet mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] docfreed:
Thanks very much

You put in a lot of effort - much appreciated. I'll try it tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
If you're running ICS and not dagr8 tablet, you may be able to just throw those in the appropriate paths with adb.

I know dagr8 tablet framework is edited but if I recall it already includes volume wake.

Sent from my bigass phone or whatever on ICS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
What ROM are you running? Have you followed the thread?

The ICS leaks didn't allow widget locker to do easy wake for the most part, unless the chef edited some frameworks.

I'm running ICS second leak (D3) and had no ability to do volume wake, even with widget locker and easy wake enabled.

Now I can do volume wake without widget locker (which I prefer all physical buttons to wake device, it's just more handy).

You could actually probably do reverse of what I posted earlier to disable volume wake. Probably just add volume keys into that switch statement so they are ignored

thanks for the edited zip!

i have asked others to make me a "UCLD3 volume wake" but they're too lazy to do it!

and i'm too lazy to learn to do it myself! haha

so i downloaded your edited android.policy.jar and replace it with the one from "UCLE2 volume wake" and use cwm to flash it!

i'm still using UCLD3, i found it has less bugs than the latest UCLE2 rom.

on UCLE2 rom, when i play wmv on landscape all i get is blue screen and use stylus to capture screen doesnt work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SystemErrorOne:
Im a bit lost..so this cwm will work for UCLE2 to wake up with the volume key? - of course

Other question is does this work for ICS? because on that link you posted it shows for 3.X only ..hmmm enlighten me up, im still a noob at life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] netnerd:
UCLE2 is ICS, so that link i posted will work on rom based on UCLE2.

it said "for 3.X only" that is meant for samsung skyrocket, but that Wake on volume also works on Note.

It worked on mine also up until I installed this unlock with volume key app thing.

Wi-Fi Issue

When i first picked up my unit. I was having the wifi issue, it would disconnect every other minute or so, i mean it was pretty bad.

Then i messed around in the settings, and found a option called "Best Wi-Fi performance", I toggled that option, and since then, i have not experience any signal drop. Just wanted to let you guys know that's a possible fix.

Settings>Wi-Fi>Menu(top right)>Advanced>"Best Wi-Fi performance".

Also i have the Wi-Fi frequency band on auto. As my work place uses 5GHz and my home uses 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal.

Email Issue

Some people claim to have the issue that the email does not get pushed right away, this too was a setting that i found which controls when emails gets pushed/synced.

to do this,

GO to Mail>Menu(top right)>Settings>Sync,Send,&receive>peak time sync>choose what you prefer(i personally chose manual

Finally, let me know if there are other bugs you experience, im no expert, but i hope this helps.:D

Given that all of the items in question can be changed with the theme engine (see https://plus.google.com/115049428938715274412/posts/hMbiJWDmBs8 ), why are you telling people to swap out systemUI?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Twilla:
You need root permission to move the default SystemUI.apk from system/app. A good application for that is Root Explorer.

Then rename SystemUI(Asus Transformer Prime MOD).apk to SystemUI.apk and paste it in system/app. After that, change the permissions to rw-,r--,r--.

Hashcode 5/10 systemUI.apk with Iconia softbuttons

Thank you very much for these.

Heads up for users: using these with Hashcode's latest ROM (5/10) causes some odd behavior in the taskbar. I've repackaged Hashcode's systemUI.apk with the Iconia softbuttons.

Also note that the above files are a bit heavy on leftovers from each other (at least the Iconia version contains redundant .png files from the Asus one, and is thus needlessly large) . This version has only the four soft buttons added (down-arrow, back, home, recent).

Flashable zip

And here's a flashable version of the abovementioned file.

For those who are interested in flashing their own SystemUI.apk, feel free to use this .zip as a starting point. You can do it from your Android device quite easily:

1) Unzip with file-manager of choice (Root Explorer, for example)

2) replace SystemUI.apk file in unzipped folder

3) rezip (multi-select -> select both "META-INF" and "system" folders; zip)

4) sign file with Zipsigner2

You can use this very method to remove/add files to flashable zips. I do this with each ROM I flash, removing unnecessary files (audio, video folders; superfluous apk files (phone, etc.)), adding ones I want (hosts file, init.d scripts, etc.), and editing the build.prop, all before I flash. What a world we live in, friends.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Thanks for doing this, I reported in Hashcode's dev thread that the Acer Ui apk had issues with Hashcode's new rom. Notifications showed up in a green grid, USB storage notification icon looked like a mail icon and wouldn't allow access to USB storage. This eventually resulted in continuous force closes.

So, thanks. I've already used up my 8 thanks for the day, :rolleyes: so I'll be sure to click thanks for you tomorrow.

EDIT: Just flashed the zip package and it worked perfectly. Also, thanks for providing the zip package, it'll come in handy down the road for other flashes.
