Hi, well knowing that the tool isn't supported for the xt925, clan we still use it to downgrade back to 4.0.4?

I used to get root via the tool but lost it with JB....

Now I'm more than eager to root again (tweaks, possible custom ROM).

Any help appreciated, mainly regarding the fact that I have the european (french) version, not droid (would I need the original ROM, if son, where to get it ans where to place it in the tool ?

Txs,

Cheers
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] mattlgroff:
It uses only XT926 files. Idk about partition and filename differences.

Just use RSD Lite.

[RAZR HD Original Android Development] famouzstarz:
clarification please:

so ok ive over read and probably confused myself like others have.

i successfully rooted using the utility,

1. so if i fastboot option 1 back to ics will i be completely unrooted ( wiping data)?

2. i can update to jb via ota no problems?
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] GoClifGo05:
If you use the utility to fastboot restore to ICS and wipe data yes you will be completely unrooted. Then yes, simply take the 2 OTA's. This is only for Verizon though.

Can't get past step 2...

Like the title states, I can't get past 2. It appears that I can get through step 1 very easily, with my computer (Macbook running Windows 7) detecting the device very easily. As soon as I approach step 2, it merely stays at the 'Waiting for Device' monologue. I have installed drivers, as step 1 probably wouldn't have worked otherwise. USB Debugging has been enabled, disabled then re-enabled, etc. Anyone have some insight?

root expolit 4.1 found, now for our devices?

Hi Mattlgroff,

already seen on another post on XDA & have seenyou present on droidrzr.com, do you think tha tyou can adapt the newly found root expolit 4.1.1 found by Dan for the razr HD (x925/x926)?

(still prefer a complete exploit than to "fiddle" around with downgrading and/or RSD....)

Thanks!
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] mattlgroff:
I know the exploit well and know enough to say the general idea is not applicable to the RAZR HD, DROID RAZR HD, Atrix HD, RAZR M, Photon Q, or Atrix HD. Only the OMAP4 DROID RAZR XT912 is compatible.
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] flying_dutchman:
..... sigh ........

Still remaining confirdent tt a developer get's it done ;)
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] mattlgroff:
You don't seem to understand how these things work. If there is already a root method you can not getting a special root exploit because you are too afraid to do the easy current method.

You bought a locked bootloader phone and should NEVER get root but Dan was nice enough to help you guys again by doing his magic.

"I know a root will come" is a cancer in the android community and shows a lack of understanding.

If you don't want to root so be it, but don't go whining the method now won't buy you dinner and be the easiet thing to do.
[RAZR HD Original Android Development] flying_dutchman:
It's not that, i've come from an HTC Desire HD and had root, custom roms (cm codefire), had even root on m'y razr HD through your tool until the ota, just TT this with downgrade, risk of bricking ans the issue between 925-926 i indeed have some doubts...

Miss root and would like it back via an "easy 1 button click" system - like you've provided for 4.0.4.....

Hope you get my point tt I'm not feeling comfortable with the Motorola specs het (which differ from HTC)

Should be getting my Maxx HD in mail tuesday. I had a Bionic so Im good with fxz back to root did it quite a few times with Bio. Ive been reading but cant seem to find if there is a CWM recovery or TWRP recovery. Or do I need to read a bit more lol.

[Microsoft Surface] mk1151:
Just wondering from a utility ("widgets", battery meters, other things specific to Windows RT) standpoint, what are y'all installing?
[Microsoft Surface] lumpaywk:
Not a utility but I am loving the Netflix app they done a top job with it
[Microsoft Surface] Digital Man:
Its hard to find anything decent. Its seriously amazing how absoulutely awful some of the selection is. One of the highes rated apps in Music is....

Krishna Aarti

Overview: "This is a beautiful app which gives the feeling of being close to Lord Krishna, a great music in teh background set the ambience for personally the Shringer for the Lord."

Seriously Microsoft SERIOUSLY!!!!!

With all their billions they couldn't have thrown a few dollars toward a few small programmers. They couldn't have gotten some of their own programmers off their butts and sent them over to look at apps like MX Player Pro or Poweramp for android and have their programmers come up with something comparable. They couldn't search for the top apps in each category on android and iOS and hire some small developers to come up with good alternatives.

Micro$$ couldn't get just a couple good apps in each category?

I swear its as if the only thing that mattered to them was the number of apps at launch - if its 10,000 fart apps at launch that's just fine.

OK rant over.

Its really slim pickings overall. I've got Netflix installed. Kindle. Evernote. Pin-a-Note. Multimedia 8. Sticky Notes 8. Gtasks HD and toolbox for Windows 8 installed that's it - mostly becaused I've felt obligated to install something.

Hope this all picks up. I've been checking the app market ever day sometimes a couple of times per day. It seems like they add maybe 3 or 4 apps a day overall - pretty bad so far.

Edit:

OK had to do this. My appologies in advance.

Search 'Fart" in Store : Results: Fart 101 - Girl Farts - Fart Soundboard Pro - Fart Soundboard - Funn Farts - Biological Piano -Burp soundboard pro

[Microsoft Surface] guitar1969:
All my storage pro is my favorite -paid version. Manages all your cloud storage acts and local in one place and can move stuff between them. Found it when looking for dropbox access.

I have a different take on the matter -I think app selection is going fine and more will come as win 8 gets going more. Here is a very interesting article on the matter:

http://www.winappupdate.com/
[Microsoft Surface] Digital Man:
Good article. Have you noticed that there are no desktop style apps? I'm wondering if the reason there is an app shortage is Microsoft.

The article points out how hard it can be to make productivity apps in Metro. But why haven't any existing desktop apps been re-compiled for RT? Where are the VLC media players for desktop?

Perhaps the lack of software is Microsofts own fault. I wonder if they even allow third party desktop apps? If one submits a desktop version of your video or music player for RT does it get denied?

If so, then Microsoft has just committed suicide. If they provide a desktop environment for RT but prevent all the existing desktop software from using it, then what is the point? It exists just for office? Microsoft themselves couldn't come up with a Metro version of office. So why would they limit developers to Metro only?

Suppose, for example, Intuit decides to re-compile their entire Quicken Suite of apps for RT. Do they then get denied because it doesn't have a metro interface?

So I ask again - why are there no desktop apps for RT?
[Microsoft Surface] adiliyo:
i don't think you're allowed to deploy a desktop style app for ARM, it has to be a "metro" style app, so some new UI is necessary, no quick recompile and post to the store.

apps will come, it's just going to take a little time.

some of my favs are:

jetpack joyride

netflix

evernote

fliptoast

metrotwit

inrix

newegg

trackseries

smartglass

kindle

angry birds space

[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
A few that haven't been mentioned:

OneNote, Woot Attack, Zentomi Reader, the metro Remote Desktop app, Blu Graphing Calculator (if you're a student especially, but it's my favorite calculator for any purpose at the moment, not just graphing), Trackage, 8Zip (which will be even better when they get RAR support), LastPass, Simply Authenticator, Youtube+, ComicsJolt, Fhotoroom.

Freda is the best epub reader so far, but isn't great yet.

IM+ is a necessity for me as well, but like on every other platform I've used IM+ on, it's not a great app.

I really do need an MKV app myself, but I'm hoping that come soon enough. There's one for Windows 8, just not on ARM yet.

---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 PM ----------

I agree that the app situation isn't exactly amazing, but they have been adding 50-100 every weekday so far.
[Microsoft Surface] Digital Man:
Where are you getting these numbers - I've been checking each category, with newest apps listed first and at most I usually see one or two new apps in each category - is there someone (website) keeping track of the additions?
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Search for * and you'll see everything, often even before it shows up under the "New Releases" section. Don't get me wrong though, most of them are still garbage.
[Microsoft Surface] -Zeppelin-:
Sooo, I just tried Jetpack Joyride. I wonder how this performs on Android tabs, but on the Surface RT it's playable, but far from fluent, especially when you get faster. It's quite a nice game, but Microsoft really needs to optimize here, as I think the hardware in the Surface RT is certainly good enough to get good performace, WinRT just has its quirks (at least up to now).

Well, I got 12 days left to try out, hope things change till then.
[Microsoft Surface] Digital Man:
Great tip thanks - thats exactly what I was looking for - now I can keep a running total of change per day - think I'll make myself a chart with the number at say 7:00 PM every day and see how fast the market is growing.
[Microsoft Surface] guitar1969:
WINAPPUPDATE.COM is the best place to learn about app counts and new apps. check out his twitter account.
[Microsoft Surface] lucas.scott:
News Bento and Tweetro are my two most used apps. Lazyworm is also bringing Metrotube to RT...and if Tweetro is any indication...its going to be beautiful. Tumbukum (Tumblr) and Cracked.com are really nice as well.
[Microsoft Surface] hoodoomagic:
Most of the apps out right now have obviously been rushed out for early adopters and are far from optimized, that isn't going to change in 12 days. In a few months things will look better and I think in a year the store will have most of the useful apps that are popular on iTunes and the Android Market.
[Microsoft Surface] guitar1969:
We really need a pdf writer / printer of some sort to make the surface a true business device. I searched "pdf" in the store but no hits. I also think the store is not really optimized for searching by keywords unless the search term is in the name of the app or somewhat obvious.
[Microsoft Surface] hoodoomagic:
Right now the only thing you can do is convert pdf's in Office and work with it that way, hopefully a better solution will become available soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flroots:
At the bottom of my Galaxy Nexus (gsm) I have from left to right: back, home, and recent. When I touch recent I can swipe the apps away. What is actually happening? I read somewhere that this flushes the app from memory, but when I go to Settings/Apps/Running the number hasn't been reduced by a corresponding number.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
It doesn't get killed, but frozen and marked to be killed if needed. You will also notice that if you open the app again it will start from scratch (first initializing).

The memory management in android is pretty good so using task killers and such isn't really needed.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s1mpd1ddy:
Okay so I sold my HOX running AOKP to a guy on Clist. He tried to flash a stock rom.. and somehow in the process wiped his whole system and sd card. Over the phone I figured out he soft bricked it and its stuck in a bootloop.

Went thru the steps over the phone with him to get into recovery(TWRP), and he confirmed that TWRP is there. Of course he didnt do a nandroid or anything of that sort, so he cant revert to that. There's no ZIPs on the phone, when he goes to INSTALL on twrp, it just shows "twrp" folder and thats it.

I haven't had the phone in my hands yet, but will see it tomorrow. My question is:

How do I transfer a Zip file onto the phone to flash thru TWRP? Does TWRP have a USB mass storage mode? (I have an S3 now and that's not available on my TWRP)

Can I use ADB or Fastboot to flash the ZIP as is? Or can I use ADB to transfer a file to the phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thejosh86:
Yeah twrp has usb storage, you go into Mount then mount usb storage and windows should recognise so long as you have the correct drivers installed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s1mpd1ddy:
Sweet. Ill do that tomorrow
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Myrder:
Maybe I didn't understand the op but, when flashing... You'll have to flash the boot.IMG file from the rom seperately if the phone has the 1.14 Hboot. Then go into recovery and install the .zip file after you wipe the cache/delvik.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
You can just mount USB storage and drag the ROM to the sdcard.

If you are on the new hboot (1.14) you will have to flash the boot.img (its inside the rom zip) first (from fastboot). then flash the ROM from recovery.
