Yeah I noticed that about posting before the poll was up. It was my first poll so I kept having to add questions and take characters out before it would post. But it's no biggie, the poll didn't have any conclusive evidence one way or the other based on the people that did vote. Though the thought of people purposely skewing the results due to the volatile nature of the thread did cross my mind.

Back on topic or rather back to the more important secondary topic since the actual topic and title is an apology lol..

The NS bootloader, where is this found? Was this included in the leaked ICS but just not flashed to the phones?

EDIT: I see it's included in the leaked update flash, along with the HS bootloader. I'm guessing when you flash the device it does certain checks to determine which boot-loader to install, and we need to circumvent the checks or meet their requirements in order to flash the NS bootloader

I found This link earlier about the efuses on the og atrix. I don't think it's of help though. And the file location to see what efuses are tripped is not the same for us. Theirs was cat /sys/firmware/fuse/ReservedOdm ours Idk, I poked around in sys/ and found references to "fuse" but the folders were always empty. Anyway I don't want to clog the thread up, I usually have 20 tabs open researching different things and I end up with so much information and I don't know what is relevant to us.

Thanks again Jim, by the way I have no regrets flashing ICS, fortunately I haven't had any need or desire to flash back to 2.3 so I for one am glad you released the leak even if you feel it was premature.

No apology needed Jim, you're a class act!!!

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yeah I am glad I released it too, and I really don't want to go back. The only reason I do, is so when the real OTA is out that everyone can go back to stock 2.3.6 so they can get the real deal too.

As far as the efuses, I am not sure which ones we will need yet, and they are not on our device in the system partition anywhere that I can find, so I am guessing we will need to make a flashable zip with a way to trip them with hex/bin code at the device/kernel level.

As I said though I am still in the early research phase, and if everyone wants to help, keep googling on how we can get an NS bootloader to work. I have 6 or so possible ways and ideas right now, and I need to start to weed some out.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
@dudemaaan-Again I apologize for any hard feelings. It's just the forums got out of hand and we were pissed off. We have absolute nothing against you. Hopefully we can all forgive and forget, and return to what makes xda great: a community
[Motorola Atrix 2] dudemaaan:
No hard feelings towards anyone here.

Anyways I was lurking through the droid bionic forums and they have had an NS bootloader since nov 2011 and far as I can see never found a way to flash it. I'm still hopeful though. I'm certain the community will come up with something, either an unlocked boot loader or a way around the locked boot loader. I'm surprised developers at Motorola don't secretly leak the information required to unlock the BL.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Since were all making amends here, I'll make this brief: I tried to extend my own apology in the now 'Notorious P.O.L.(L.)' thread -bad hip-hop joke- but rambled on long winded in that post, and it may not have been received as I intended.. So, dudemaan, et. al., please accept my apologies for my own heated exchanges and frustrations with you all. Its been a tumultuous time these past few weeks. We've all felt that. So, I extend to you all a very humble olive branch...

If atrix2 ICS is really closed/identical to Razr, then you won't have problem of not being able to install OTA.

about ns_bootloader? It also comes with Razr OTA.

I though it was a file to disable/relocked bootloader(by software) on NS devices.. you know sometimes device leaves factory without a burn efuse.

cat /sys/board_properties/soc/type
[Motorola Atrix 2] lukensteinz:
You're a bloody goldmine of info!

I think we are gonna have to stalk the Razr boards a bit more.

I came back with HS from that cat

Neo saved me!
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
We all have that HS in there, we were checking it when we found it last week... that is why I am trying to figure out to trip our efuse to make this work.... We were throwing that same idea about how to change that info on the irc channel late last week. We were trying to figure a way to make it stick on a reboot, and that is how I thought about tripping the efuse with hex/bin code from an updater-script or something like that.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Awe, everyone has kissed and made up!

Anyways, it's sad that you have had to do this Jim, but respectable that you have decided to do so. And remember everyone, that we DO need to make sure we are searching and not making duplicate posts.

On a side note, Jim, we appreciate your work here and I personally have learned SO much from ya. And your free time is appreciated and helpful!

Now let's crack this locked down bootloader!
[Motorola Atrix 2] aabaaf:
ICS SOAK TESTING from ICS Leak

So if I have the ICS leak on my phone, if selected for SOAK, and when the OTA comes out, I should be able to install either or both on my phone no problem? Provided they're close/identical or ICS for RAZR.

Thanks.

thank you jim

Hey Jim ..... u need not to say sorry to anybody here

because we know the risks involved in flashing n all stuff

some things might go wrong (specially with nOObs)

but that doesn't mean creator should be blamed

What ROM(s) support MHL? I'm using Team Objection UCLF5 and it works really well but when I plug in my MHL it doesn't work and also blows away all my homescreens widgets. I'd like to find a ROM with working MHL functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crielstar:
Might only be one stock roms for now. Or a rom close to stock like black star or onlyone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bulldog212:
I thought Objection was a stock-based ROM, only cleaned up a little?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crielstar:
Its prob based off of a leak. The leak prob doesent have support as their un finished products...so i think its only on stock or stock based roms not a rom built from a stock leak base.hope that helps, maybe someone else will confirm this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Just make a good backup then flash and test any rom you want. When the rom is done settling in ~ 5 minutes, just sign in to google, then test your MHL connection. Don't forget to connect the adaptor to usb power when you use it.

So flashing this is essentially flashing to boost?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Logging on to the PC at home to download. Will update once I get that far.

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

The screenshots from yesterday would suggest it's basically the same build except certain Sprint components have been replaced with Boost versions. Apps were shown and I'll bet the boot/shutdown screens are also affected. So to make a Sprint build it should hopefully just be a process of:

1) Replacing Boost with Sprint objects (which we can pull from FF18)

2) Create flashable build (longest part of this process)

3) Package one click.

Again, hoping sfhub's around today because he already has #2 and #3 probably scripted... #1 shouldn't take that long. (Just change the preload apks and whatever the screens are.)

*Above information is speculative as I haven't done a proof of concept yet. I'm going to try today.*

*Edit* Shout out to Sextape and LE for the fair warning - I started the Virtualbox before I left today. :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Sweet so I can just Odin it and activate on boost.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Yeah, guess a couple of folks misunderstood when I said same.

Yesterday's discussion dropped the hint that the build itself is new and that there are improvements from FF18. But from what has been seen so far - mainly screenshots and the modem - the differences between a Boost build and Sprint build appear to be mainly "cosmetic" in nature.

Still hoping Sextape and LE are able to get a changelog, that would answer your question on what improvements have been made...

I'd imagine you'd just download the SU zip and flash it in recovery. Since your not wiping anything you can use whatever recovery is available at the time.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
I'm a little confused here... If I just want to root the Boost Mobile Galaxy S2 (FH29) can't I just use your "Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip"?

In other words, can I flash that SU file in my "untouched" phone to get root?

Edit: No, it doesn't work this way... for whoever is wondering...

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Ok.. I have an (original Boost Mobile release) Galaxy S2 (FH29) running Android 4.0.4

My question is: What should I do if the ONLY thing I want is ROOT? I don't want no Kernels or CWM, etc, etc.... Just root.

I've been looking for HOURS all over the web and I just CAN'T find anything....

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance

I have a rooted sprint phone flashed to Boost. when I download certain custom ics roms and jb roms I lose my 3 G and i only get only get 1 X. if I flash this will it fix this problem? if not do you know what would fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
- Flash a custom kernel that includes CWM through Odin or using one of my One-Click kernels.

- Boot to Recovery.

- Flash Superuser.

- Flash the stock kernel of your choice.

You will then have root access but other than that you will be 100% stock.

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

I don't know why flashing a particular ROM would cause you to lose 3g as that is modem related. You could give it a shot and see though.

If you've found a ROM you like, I would maybe try flashing a different modem first. Be sure to update profile and PRL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:
that wont mess up anything with the boost flash will it? also should i do that before or after flashing the rom and modem i want. what modem would be good for the s2 on boost service for a jb rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Assuming you want a stock ROM you would need to do flash in this order.

- ROM

- Custom Kernel (w/ CWM)

- SuperUser

- Modem

- Stock Kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:
i want a custom rom. preferably phantom freaks cm10
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
In that case you'd probably better go to that thread and ask for directions. The kernel for this is based on ICS and is not compatible with JB.

FYI - Doing that will take you about as far from stock as you can be...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
First: Thanks

Second: wow.... all that just to get root .... jjjmmm... I think someone's gonna come up with a simpler way...... With my previous android cells it was a looooot easier....

Just in case I pull the trigger.... I'll loose all my data and apps, right? How do I back up my stock kernel (FH29) before flashing one through odin? So I can flash it back at the end... you follow me? Which of your kernels with CWM you suggest in this case? Can you post me the link?

When I flash it I should put the kernel in the odin's PDA slot right?

Sorry for all the questions...

Thank you man...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtimeweb:
Thanks. I got the new Boost version today...coming from the original Sprint Epic 4G.

SPH-D710BST

Android version 4.04

Baseband S: D710.10.S.FH29

Kernel

3.0.15-981989

se.infra@SEPT-77 #3

SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 29 23:32:39 KST

2012

Build number IMM76I.FH29

Hardware version D710.10

What I basically want to do is stay stock like I am with all Boost boot animations and such.... but I want to root so that I can import over my text history and such using my rooted software on the original epic 4G.

So my question(s) is related to your helpful post is....

- ROM

This ROM will suffice for what I want to do, correct?

- Custom Kernel (w/ CWM)

AGAT is the suggestion here?

- SuperUser

Chainfires SuperSU is ok?

- Modem

must I if I want to stay here where I am?

- Stock Kernel

Is the matching stock kernel for this boost ROM around???

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
The hard part is that I'm not aware of a copy of FH29 out there. We need this for the components such as the kernel, meaning until it's available you're going to lose a stock component to root.

Since you're current the process is easy:

1) Flash Agat's latest kernel + repack by Odin. FI03 should do the trick. Hold Vol Up + Power after the reboot to go straight to recovery.

2) Use Chainfire's SuperSU or I have a .zip that will install su, Superuser (ChainsDD) and busybox all in one. Good if you want to go back to the stock kernel.

3) If you can find/dump the stock kernel and then want to re-flash you would do it here. Totally optional.

5-10 minutes and you're on your way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtimeweb:
Thanks Garwynn :)

Is there a way I can extract this FH29 modem to provide to the community?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Ideally we need the .TAR file for FH29, which I haven't seen. But I'm also hoping we might see FI22 soon enough, should it be leaked. Would suggest holding off for the moment.

BTW, Modems between Sprint and the MVNOs should be interchangeable, meaning you could try a newer Sprint modem if you wanted. But kernel and ROM do have MVNO specific changes that may cause some... odd... behaviors if you try those. I tested this with an FF18/FG31 blend and while it worked it had some issues that I wasn't able to ever resolve.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
The system update FI22 is out... (Boost Mobile GS2)

Problems if you have FH29 rooted and want to update to FI22:

I'm running now the FH29 and tried to update it to the newest version (FI22) but that gave me an error that didn't surprise me because I'm rooted.

I did a Nandroid backup before anything....

I went back to stock and did both updates FH29 and FI22, then I rooted the phone (flashed Agat and then Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip), everything seemed ok until I realized the 3G wasn't working no matter what I tried. I flashed my Nandroid backup on top of this without results. Finally, I went back to stock again, updated to FH29, and flashed my Nandroid backup and everything is working now... (without FI22)

If anyone has a solution for this let me know, it looks like this rooting metod doesn't work for FI22, for some reason blocks the 3G and I don't know what else....

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Can you extract the FI22 update file from your phone and upload? Maybe the devs can tweak up a rooted version for you. :)

The tar is a all in one file. If you place the tar on your phone, internal or sdcard. Use mobile odin pro (look it up on the playstore), select the tar. Lastly, check mark the Inject root option. hopefully that can get you a rooted FI22 stock with root. :)

Edit: I forgot to mention that odin pro won't be able to flash the modem via the phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
Yes, i know what's a tar file, just didn't know what sextape put on it. Boost mobile GS2 isn't compatible with Mobile odin pro... Can I just flash it from my pc? I don't remember if odin (pc) has the inject option...

Edited: Can you put the link to the file plase.

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
If your current ROM is rooted. Just edit out the build prop to remove the "bst" from "sph-d710bst". If not let us know what your build prop shows for model/device. Odin pro should work after that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
Ohh ok... Ehhhh so no way odin pc will do it? I don't really want to go there... But if there's no other way I'll have to..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
There is no method via the pc odin version. You can always flash a custom kernel like agat. Boot into recovery and flash the superSU 0.96 zip, then odin back to stock FI22. I'm not sure if that will work though. That's what I use to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
I would use this second method Febby has suggested if you don't feel comfortable editing the build.prop. I use it all the time. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dusko75:
How about if I edit the build.prop back to its original after i do the first method?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
That would be fine, but odin would not work again after. Ofc no draw back if u leave it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Doing the first method will restore you to 100% stock, including the build.prop. :)
