[HTC One X] ebosman999:
I've unlocked my phone and I've rooted it and to be honest I am much,much more satisfied with the phone now than before when it was on a stock rom.If you will take care of phone i don't suppose that bad think can happen.Of course there can be a hardware fault (like in every phone i think) but i do recommend unlock and root - I'm really happy with it and i can use my phone to the max :victory:

Cheers from Denmark :cowboy:
[HTC One X] kentrix.si:
I've had rooted HTC Desire before I got HOX, and from the experience I can say that the stock ROM was the best and the fastest.

About rooting HOX, I don't think it's worth doing it, I am completely satisfied with stock rom, works like a charm.
[HTC One X] ri123:
If I hadn't have rooted my phone I would have never have got these problems with my HTC Explorer. Im quite sure that would be the same answer for those that fell into the trap that I did.

Besides, you have to move off official rom in case of factory reset bricking. No root, no unidentified jargon crashing the system.

The thing about One X is that I would complain to HTC if it was "laggy" or went wrong. Every rooted phone would come to the end of its software life, so not rooting would be more cost effective.

Some software problems cannot be solved. I made a thread about my phone problem and I was surprised it could not be solved. This is what rooting does. Sometimes it works, sometimes it wrecks your phone. And when it does wreck your phone there is no one to blame except for rooting. This is why many people advise not to root, including me.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Astrobrewer:
I'm expecting to see the OTA show up any time now and I want to be ready for it. I'm running stock .181 rooted with bootstrap recovery. I've seen lots of threads with instructions for sideloading the 211 ICS update, and all say to use Matt's utility to start with clean version of .181 with no bootstrap. I'm willing to wait a day or a week or whatever for the OTA and don't see a need to rush and sideload ICS, so do those instructions still apply? I"m sure it's cleaner if I wipe everything before applying the OTA update, but I'd rather not spend the hours it will take to restore and recover all my apps and data and such if I don't have to.

So, do I have to rsd back to clean 181 to get rid of bootstrap recovery? Can I just uninstall the Razr Bootstrapper app? Any recommendations or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Astrobrewer:
OK. Found a simpler option than RSDing to re-install 181. I followed instructions to remove CWM posted at http://theunlockr.com/2012/01/24/how-to-install-bootstrap-recovery-on-the-motorola-droid-razr/ . I also un-installed the RAZR Bootstrapper app just to be on the safe side. I plan to back up root with OTA rootkeeper before installing OTA which I am hoping is soon.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] saraheba:
I can't delete the files, I keep getting "error deleting file". Also am attempting to get in to adb shell using the utility and keep getting "the system cannot find the path specified". I have debugging enabled. Really getting fed up with this. I tried to use the utility to revert to at least a clean install of 181 and the path specified is never available. Root is good. Constant error messages.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rigbyrobot:
Try opening the su app, then hit menu, then update your su binaries, then do it again, then open rom manager, or what ever app you may have, or boot into cwm and run fix permissions, reboot and try again, though, even if you remove bootstrap, if you've frozen, removed any bloat, or you/an app you installed altered your build.prop at all any update from vzn/moto will fail. Also I don't think ota rootkeepr works for going to ics. When you have root, ti backup and a nandroid are amazing time saving tools to have.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Astrobrewer:
To delete/rename files using ES file explorer I had to go to preferences and check the root explorer option and the mount /system read/write option. Then all was good.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] papanut:
Computer doesn't see your phone for adb? And you have the motorola usb drivers installed on the pc?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brgr:
I can confirm you do need to remove bootstrap. However, that method did not work for me to remove it to install the soak test. I'm not sure the reasoning, but the following steps:

[Removing CWM on Boot]

1) Delete file /system/bin/mot_boot_mode

2) Rename file /system/bin/mot_boot_mode.bin to /system/bin/mot_boot_mode

My phone did not have a mot_boot_mode.bin. I found an alternate set of instructions that did work and allowed me to receive the OTA soak.

This thread has the instructions I followed (also pasted below):

droidforums.net/forum/droid-razr-hacks/188690-how-remove-razr-bootstrap-custom-recovery.html

"I found a thread on DroidXForums.com by Abe21599, which suggested the following for a Droid X:

1. Reroot (If not currently rooted)

2. Get root explorer in the market

3. Uninstall the bootstrap app

4. Go into root explorer to system/bin

5. In top right corner tap r/w

6. Delete the file called hijack

7. Delete logwrapper

8. Rename logwrapper.bin to just logwrapper

9. Reboot and it should be gone.

(thanks to Droidforums member Hostility6)"

You also need to unroot, which I did with the Razr Utility 1.6. After all of this, I was able to install the soak OTA without any further issues!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Astrobrewer:
The theunlockr.com article with instructions that I used referred back to a 12/18/2011 post by J.Y Daddy on xda, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20447149&postcount=47 . The instructions are pretty much the same as what brgr had but also have you delete the /preinstall/recovery directory. That may be why it didn't work for brgr.

Here are the instructions given in the J.Y. Daddy post:

I'm optimistic that it will work, but until I get the OTA I won't know. If it doesn't work out then I'll start clean with the razr utility.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Florestan2:
I don't have the mot_boot_mode.bin file. Only the one without the. bin extension.

Will that make a difference to remove Bootstrap / CWM?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Astrobrewer:
Sounds like you didn't set up CWM to automatically run at boot, so you just skip the two steps in that section. As I understand it the mot_boot_mode.bin file is just a back-up of the stock mot_boot_mode file that is replaced when you run the set up to have CWM always come up when you reboot. To get rid of CWM on boot is to delete/rename to get the original file back. The stock version boots to your normal system ROM, the other version for CWM at boot boots phone to CWM. If you don't have a mot_boot_mode.bin file then just leave the mot_boot_mode file as is -- you definitely don't want to delete it.

I didn't set up CWM to come up automatically at boot, so I didn't have the .bin file either. It shouldn't matter because the mot_boot_mode file is the stock version (wasn't replaced to make CWM run at boot). Still need to do the rest of the steps to remove CWM recovery.

Hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Florestan2:
Good to know, that's what I was hoping for. I boot normally, not going into recovery first, so it makes sense.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] UrbanDroid:
Ill let you all know how the OTA goes if and when i receive it. Just a waiting game now.

Finally got OTA. I temp un-rooted with Voodoo before installing. Went very smoothly with no issues. After update i restored root with Voodoo and I'm back in the game.

Removing CWM using the steps i followed and temp un-rooting allowed OTA to work and let me keep root. Done.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] caileb:
Didn't think Sprint would have much on launch day, so I dropped by 06/22 to see what they had.

Store said they were not shipped any; and the whole release was pushed back (?).

They opened up two boxes... to pull out 2 accessories. One was an ugly case; and the other was the charger/spare batter. They claim that it could not charge your phone and the spare battery at the same time (?).

Kind of a disappointing experience.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bmoreboy02:
All mine had was a bodyglove and some black case holster combo. I went to at&t store and got this casemate

[Motorola Droid RAZR] miamicanes3:
about two weeks ago I rooted my RAZR phone with motofail and it was successful, then I tried to install the blackwidow rom on my phone and I ended up bricking it so I did a factory reset using DroidRAZRutility and it reset my phone to factory as it should, it installed system version 6.12.167 I think so I updated it to v. 6.12.181.XT912 and when I run motofail it says "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command." the android version I have is 2.3.6, and advice is welcomed, Thank You!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
go into your phones settings and make sure debugging is checked, and that your USB setting is "Charge Only"
[Motorola Droid RAZR] miamicanes3:
Yeah I did that like I said I know how to root as I have done it before but after I factory reset my phone after bricking it now it wont let me root.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] djerk:
I had the same problem a while back it turned out I was running a version of dru without the fastboot files, I just noticed on this forum there is a 1.7 version of dry, I'm going to look into that today maybe you should too. Good luck:)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
The 1.7 version is for going to ICS .211, use the 1.6 DRU with full fastboot files to fastboot back to .181 and then use it to root, that's what I did after I bricked from trying to flash a beats audio mod that probably wasn't for this phone, and I was rooted before the brick and DRU 1.6 rooted without issue after the fastboot.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] miamicanes3:
Alright thanks, do you think you can get me a link for download? Ok I downloaded swiftdroid 1.6 and extracted it to my desktop and it is a .img file, what do I do with it now?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Go into settings and enable USB Debugging. That's why it's not recognizing your phone. If it still doesn't recognize it and you have it in charge mode, then you need to install the Moto drivers to your computer.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
go here http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...612181-fastboot-files/page__hl__ utility 1.6 this is what I used when I bricked mine and could only get into AP fastboot mode, it will wipe all internal memory, only the microSD card will be left alone.

Directions:

1. Boot phone into AP fastboot

2. Launch DroidRazr Utility 1.6 (right-click and choose, RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR)

3. Choose Option #1 and follow onscreen directions

4. After fastboot is finished you will be back to BONE stock

5. Choose Option #2 and follow onscreen directions

6. You should now be rooted.

7. Optional choose option #5 if you want to install Voodoo root keeper to attempt to retain root for the upcoming OTA
[Motorola Droid RAZR] miamicanes3:
Ok I followed the instructiona to a T and when I try to do option 2 it says "the system could not find the path specified!" Im starting to think that I can no longer root my phone for some reason.

I faced this problem initially but I solve it by doing the following:

- First install stock ROM

- Then use rooting method provided by dr.ketan "the rooting part only" (click here)

- Then install Mobile Odin Pro from the market... Then flash any custom kernel by Mobile Odin Pro (suggestion SpeedMod k3-3 kernel)

- Then create a folder and put RocktROM v7 and Abyss Kernel 4.2 in it and transfer it to SDCard

- boot in Recovery

- Flash Abyss Kernel 4.2!!!

- boot back in Recovery (find it under 'advanced')

- now FullWipe!!!

- Flash RocketROM v7

- reboot system

-...you are done :D

Hi,

I followed the steps as given above. It worked fine and now I have a SGN with the latest Rocket Rom Installed.

Only thing now I am looking for the solution is about the binary count reset.

at last my SGN started working and till now I don't see any re-boot or freeze, but still it is less than a day. I will update about its progress or condition after 2 or 3 days.

lost 8 GB of internal storage and my external SD card shows only 25.4 GB now. also I would like to say my binary count has reached 50 as on the day.

I am eagerly waiting for all this solution from Samsung or from any XDA Developers.

I hope for the best and will continue with the Rocket Rom till I get a good one.

Hello,

I switched from my iPhone and until now I'm pretty satisfied, but there is one thing bothering me:

Mail app (stock)

I love how it look, but the text reflow is shop disturbing. I could live with that function, if it didn't load all mails for blind people. For text mails the text is big but still readable, but forget to read a html newsletter, you can't zoom out.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thx
[HTC One X] RazerRazer04:
No one?

It's not just reflow, it's the lack of ability to size the HTML image. I really like the stock e-mail client so for now I'm just living with it. There's a massive update coming that I hope provides some more flexibility in viewing HTML e-mail.
