[Droid X General] redsox985:
I took the .621 OTA, booted Ubuntu 12.04 from my 2nd HDD, SBF'd to Milestone X in Ubuntu, went over to Windows 7 64bit HP, ran ZergRush v4, ZergRush v3, Pete's Moto Root Tools, and MotoFail, all of which failed to root. I then used RSD Lite to apply the .621 SBF (I'm now questioning if I should've done this via Ubuntu), went into Ubuntu, did the MX SBF, tried all rooting methods above and failed.

Then I tried rooting via ADB and I believe I successfully pushed su, busybox, and Superuser.apk to /data/local via ADB, but when issuing "adb remount", I'm unable to mount /system as read-write. I'm applying the .621 SBF via RSD Lite currently and having my second guesses about this doing this via RSD now...

Why don't you sbf in windows using rsd lite back to .621 Droid x then do the Ubuntu followed by zergrush

[Droid X General] Orange_furball:
Try it again maybe?

[Droid X General] only1battman:
Oh man I feel for you redsox985. I love my Droid x and I wish that I could help. But the only thing I can reccomend is try sbfing in windows with the newest version of red lite. And then when it is done or tries to reboot, or then bootloops is to unplug the phone. Boot into the stock recovery or whatever you call it (you get to it by pressing the home and power until you see the android dude and exclamation point. Then you push either search or back. It varies with the version.) Then you want to wipe data and cache. Then try rebooting. It has worked for me in the past when I have come out of 2nd init roms.

If you have tried that then I am sorry. I can't help anymore.
[Droid X General] Orange_furball:
OK here we go... I hope...

1. Boot into windows. I used 7, but whatever.

2. Then download rsd lite 5.x.x and download the Droix X .621 sbf file.

3. Enter download mode on the dx and connect it to the computer.

4. Sbf your phone in rsd lite to .621.

5. Unplug your phone.

6. Pull the battery of your phone.

7. Hold down POWER AND HOME until you see the triangle with exclamation point.

8. Click both the VOLUME UP AND DOWN buttons

9. This is stock recovery.

10. Wipe data/Factory reset.

11. Reboot.

12. Verify it works (connect to wifi, browse a few sites, etc.)

13. Start Ubuntu and follow the guide for sbfing to the Milestone X file.

***back to windows****

14. Root using Zergrush *****v3*****!!!!

15. Install the bootstrap .apk

***on the phone****

16. Install clockwork mod

17. Flash whatever you want*

*Nothing below 2.3.5. Definitely NO Froyo

If this doesn't work I'll walk you through it while IMing or texting or something. If I can follow the steps I can figure it out.

I'll try this tomorrow. In the meantime, I'm wondering about another method... Much like one we're working on with the D3. Can you use moto-fastboot in command to flash signed images to the phone? I know we have the signed images and whatnot to flash over MX to get the DX .621 kernel and radio...

If we have all of those, could we add in the .605 /system and other files except for a select handful (I'll check with the D3 SBF since it can no longer be reverted like .621) of images.

Basically, you keep the bootloader and kernel and some others which can't be reverted, but then flash an older /system partition.

**EDIT**

Ok, I went back and grabbed the patch files to allow us (D3 people) to revert after taking the latest OTA. boot.img, cdt.bin, mbm.bin, mbmloader_hs.bin, and recovery.img cannot be reverted, but everything else can (cdrom, device_tree.bin, ebr, lbl, logo.bin, mbr, preinstall, radio, and system). All this requires is a new .xml file for RSD Lite with the correct MD5's and names.

So... Where can I find all of the signed images from an .sbf? Can I just extract them from the SBF file?

Images to be flashed...

Files needed to flash. This is an automatic batch file to SBF in just about 5 minutes without RSD or anything.

Try ZergRush v3, it worked for me after several fails with v4.
[Droid X General] MultipleMonomials:
I know it seems like you've alredy done this, but go to http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...-solution-your-windows-rsd-lite-problems.html and download the bottom file. It is a bootable Linux ISO that contains sbf_flash and zergrush, just burn it and run it and follow the instructions.

I tried this. It gets hung up flashing the phone for some reason. I'm trying the listed method on page 2 (forget the author's name) right now.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Just tried the method described on the 2nd page (I forgot to look at your name again! :/), and it failed. Hopefully I can copy in the command text to see if anyone else can figure it out maybe. :(

Strange, I ran the live CD from my desktop (64bit Win 7 HP Acer) and it worked! It didn't work on my laptop though (64bit Win 7 HP Samsung). IDK! But I'm rooted now and will flash the .621 images package to get back on VZW. Thanks everyone!
[Droid X General] Orange_furball:
It's Orange Furball, or Matt.

Here is your first problem. Some directory is missing, and this could be the start of the problems.

I think there is a problem with busybox and the version you used.

I will sbf my dx and go through all of the steps again if you want. We can go through it at the same time on both of our droids and see if it works. If you want to instant message or text let me know. I'll be able to go through it in about 20 minutes and if not tonight tomorrow morning. Pm me if you want to do this.

[Droid X General] redsox985:
NO! Don't waste your time! The live cd worked in my desktop and I'm now rooted. Idk why the live cd didn't work in my laptop. Even Ubuntu 12.04 in my desktop on the 2nd HDD didn't do the trick. My only guess is the whole Android-Linux no driver integration. Thanks for all the help! :)

Now, I have a small triangle across the status bar. I've seen this before when I made framework tweaks on my D3, but I fear I may have the wrong radio... I applied the .621 images package through D2 Bootstrap. I'm also looking to activate this on my line, but don't want to go *228 and 1 then activate it on his line since, well, I have the phone. IIRC, a data wipe doesn't disconnect the number from the phone, but an SBF does? I can't remember. Finals have drained my brain haha.

Anything that overwrites the radios (ie. SBFing in RSD Lite) will require you to reactivate your device; however, wiping data will not cause you to have to reactivate your device.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Well, I both SBF'd and wiped. Will I be able to activate this on my line (without going into the store) and not his since his phone number was previously used on this phone?
[Droid X General] redsox985:
I'm not too sure what happened... I got CM7 and GApps installed, it was fun to play with, I installed D2 Bootstrapper, and now it won't boot. I wiped data and cache again, but it still gets stuck at the red and white "M" logo.
[Droid X General] MultipleMonomials:
You did make a nandroid, didn't you?
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Of course not! That would make sense. :p :( I was going to make one of CM7 today, but D2 bootstrap and CM7 don't seem to be the best of friends. When I hit "Bootstrap Recovery", I got the success pop-up, but after hitting reboot recovery, it crapped out.

I tried the whole battery pull, data/cache wipe, etc. stuff to no avail. I'm not new to bricking phones (see my signature), but I am new to the DX (again) and I wanted to see if I made a silly oversight. At least I know the live CD SBF method works in my desktop now...

I think all that doesn't work is video camera? Or maybe YouTube/Netflix

©2012 Galaxy Note i717
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
All that.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Based on that, and the D3 having the same issues, it can't be my DD, but I re-SBF'd and whatnot... CM7 doesn't play nicely with D2 bootstrapper. Should I try DX bootstrap? I know this sounds dumb, but DX bootstrap doesn't work with .621, correct?
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
Don't ever use D2 Bootstrapper with roms like CM7 and MIUI. it will cause many issues. Instead, download ROM Manager and use it to flash recovery.

DX Bootstrapper can be used with .621, you just have to enable USB debugging; however, I still recommend using Droid 2 Bootstrapper with it.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Thanks for that! I'll grab bootstrap from RM once I SBF and root again.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
She lives! The key was that there is a DX Bootstrapper for 2nd init ROMs that you can grab from RM. That's what it needed.
[Droid X General] redsox985:
Anything else you'd recommend? I'm running CM7 OC'd to 1.2 with the BOOSTEDassV2 gov.
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
Experiment with launchers until you find the one that's for you. It can make all the difference to your user experience .
[Droid X General] redsox985:
That's a good recommendation... Has anyone found a GB launcher comparable to Apex (ICS only)? I am using the launcher that came with CM7 (ADW Launcher) now, but would be open to other suggestions. I've used both Holo Launcher and Nemus Launcher on my D3.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HollywoodSmith:
I have had my Captivate for a couple months now and the wifi has been working great without any problems. Today I power it on and try to connect to my wifi home network and it doesnt connect. I knew there was a real problem when I noticed that it is not finding any wifi networks and there are many around here.

My computer and xbox are on my home network and the net works fine so I ruled out a problem with the router.

I tried to use the wps button route and that didnt work.

I also tried to manually input the connection and it gives the the "not in range" message. I did a factory reset and still the same problems.

I have not downloaded any apps or flashed the rom....this just started out of nowhere. My Captivate is rooted and it is stock Eclair 2.1.

I hope you guys can help me with this problem.

Thank you.

If you unroot, does that change the outcome?

Are there any other steps you did on the phone recently?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMan94:
There is/was a thread in the development section that dealt with this. It had to do with the dhcp file. I had this problem when I was on 2.1 and used the new dhcp file to fix it and it never failed again.

I'll poke around and see if I have it yet on my pc. Failing that I'd suggest upgrading to GB.

Well I'll be....

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infyx:
Yeah, I would just upgrade to the latest official release from Samsung.

Then re-root on that release.

If the problem persists with out root, you can then contact Samsung or your provider for assistance.

Okay so I am trying to install the jdroid rom, btw first time ever doing this so bare with me, anyways I can't boot my phone stays at HTC quietly brilliant screen with some writing underneath it red. I can get into the bootloader menu, where I am rooted and says my bootloader is unlocked. I can also get into clockwork mod however I messed up when transferring the rom onto my phone. I unzipped it and put it there instead of leaving it in the zip file. I can't mount to my laptop through clockwork mod, is there any other way? Again I can't boot my phone. Thanks

EDIT: Now whenever my phone boots, it boots into the clockworkmod and keeps rebooting I can't do anything, cant mount my phone at all

Yes ... instal this recowery (Link to the latest unofficial test recovery with USB issues fixed and automount by RichardTrip) and you can push your zip on SD ;)

Thanks for the reply

I used this command: fastboot flash recovery <Name Of the downloaded file>.img

But I'm still stuck at the boot screen :(
[HTC One X] muamers:
You need to enter the fastboot mode ... hold "volume-down + powerbutton" for 10 secs and then again push the powerbutton to enter the fastboot mode.

Edit: and after that use the comand fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img ;)
[HTC One X] Bizarre48:
Just saw the edit now will try thanks alot man appreciate it!
[HTC One X] muamers:
OK, did you instal the ROM + boot.img?

[HTC One X] Bizarre48:
Okay I still can't do it nothing works! I flash the recoveries and I still get stuck at the htc boot screen. so frustrating
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
What you need to do when flashing:

a) CWM recovery

fastboot flash recovery xxxrecovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

b) Flashing a ROM

extract the boot.img from the ROM.zip

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot erase cache

enter recovery

install the ROM.zip

reboot

I was having issues with my phone and accidentally deleted some system apps so I restored my phone using the fastboot files and cleared my internal SD card storage. Upon reboot (with no apps installed), there is only 2.88GB of application storage available.

If I remember correctly, 8GB is allocated to the internal SD card. Does that mean 8GB goes to application storage? If so, where is my other 5GB?
[Motorola Droid 4] gdeeble:
2.88 for Apps, 8 for internal, and the rest(no more than like 4 gig) for the OS if IIRC.
[Motorola Droid 4] core2kid:
The OS takes up that much space?
[Motorola Droid 4] tcrews:
Your internal storage is divided up in to three separate sections...

Apps (your app storage), Media Storage (this is actually like extended app storage or Apps2SD) and SDcard. Not sure the split but I think 8 for apps and media storage (split there however) and the other 8 for /sdcard.

An external SDCARD added would be /sdcard-ext

OS space is never listed as part of a phone's available storage so the 16 GB is has is dedicated to Apps/Media Storage/SDcard
[Motorola Droid 4] core2kid:
So under storage it lists:

Total Phone Storage

Total Space 16.00GB

Application Storage

Available Space 2.73GB

Internal Media Storage

Available Space 8.00GB

Windows Media Sync

Windows Media Sync Storage Internal Storage (8.00GB/8.00GB)

The phone is stock with no updates/market apps. No pics, music, etc (Was backed up and formatted). I should still see 5.27GB somewhere right?

This summed it up pretty well for me. I think I answered my own question. This is exactly what my phone shows.
