[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattz101783:
Hi all,

With yrs of experience with software, hardware, and up to high-voltage instrumentation electronics I am STUMPED!

I have been trying to root/unlock/flash the antenna on a razr m so I can use global pre-paid carriers IN THE US.

I was able to acheive this on my HTC Rezound in under 30 mins using XDA. (Given this just had to be programmed).

The strange situation I am dealing with here ---------------------------------------

Droid Razr M - Goal is to run on Net10, just traded off my HTC Rezound.

Problem = I ran every rooting program available to me, they all are having problems seeing the device. However, USB debugging and "Allow access" are activated. Reinstalled new Motorola drivers.

Radiocomm === I have the program set up correctly, found XDA post on this, it gave the same directions as some youtube videos and howardforums. It simply wont recognize the device (if I could acheive this I would be done). I then troubleshooted that problem, installing more drivers,

Ended up manually trying to root the phone. Still a no-go! (YES I am using a motorola usb cable on a high speed port rear of PC)

Still all fails.

Next step was reinstalling motorola drivers 2.3.9 for windows 7 64bit again (after removing them via control panel)

Then went with using ADB drivers, also found some people had success using PDA net. Installed it after removing others, then tried running pda net with motorola drivers installed. Still a no-go, device not recognized.

(When loading radiocomm I get the message "this installation is intended for 32-bit OS versions only. Please use the 64-bit version on this machine.)

- Same message for 11.11.11 and 11.12.2

Next it tells me "The installer was interrupted before Motorola Datacard drivers 1.5.9 could be installed. You need to restart the installer and try again. (Reinstalled drivers 4-5 times) restarted.... reinstalled radiocomm etc....

While troubleshooting your radiocomm guide, I found Motochopper (also doesnt see device, and says already exists (reset phone to stock with adb). Then attemptted EPRJ_EasyRootICS_MultiOS_V1.5, which fails three phone restarts then closes. It my phone has been successfully rooted. Also wrong!

There has to be some sort of issues between PC USB drivers and the drivers on the phone. Maybe hardware?

My PC Specs

4gb ram ddr3 1600mhz

AMD x4 B50 (550BE x2 unlocked) OC to 3.8

ASUS P8N SLI mobo

1tb Hard drive.

ATI Raedon 2gb gddr5 graphics

I think these posts I along with others are following trying to hot rod the razr m are simply outdated. A new one where all of the knowledge learned needs to be put into one thread.

someone suggested everyone on the forum needs to take a test first? I think thats a great idea, wouldnt have people compiling other's work into a "one click flash" that does nothing but type some code for you, asking for donations. And no support, incorrect drivers links, advertising in posts everywhere! BLAH

Phone Info

Razr M xt906.

system version 98.18.78.xt907.verzion.en.us

Android version 4.1.2.

build date Fri May 24 2013.

(PS ordered an unlock code yesterday. They automatically gave me a refund.

I had traded for this phone last week. Assuming the update from verizon was completed. I have been reading into this, however when doing my research I took this into consideration. So many mixed issues/ideas for how to "re-root" but due to this device not being very old, and the gentleman I traded for this phone is on contract through verizon, he had no idea what rooting was.

Making assumptions makes an ass, well I assumed being a global phone like my HTC Rezound, verizon prepaid told me they could set up the antenna in-store to work for net10. I guess I've made an ass of myself havent I?

Anywho, 60hour work week starting tonight, hope I get this working! (15hr days)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
That is the unrootable, un-unlockable new UD.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattz101783:
hmm

It successfully rooted, then reverted like I read it would. I have rootkeeper installed.

nobody has had any success taking off the update verizon sent out that made it impossible to root?

Just today, I got stuck in sideload, whiped the cache, and did factory restore reset all.

Wondering if I could take it back to a previous version, then root/unlock, then upgrade ics outside verizon (custom)?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
Do this:

with the phone on press all 3 keys at once and hold till the screen goes black ( about 5 sec.).

then let off the pwr key. you should be in the bootloader menu. Be quick cause there is a short timeout and it will reboot. Toggle the vol- to highlight fastboot and press vol+ what does it say? 3 means UL bootloader.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gam3r 4 Life:
Eventually we will get the Samsung firmware update that allows apps2sd, but we havent gotten it yet. In the mean time I use Foldermount to move large data folders to the external sd card. For example the large gameloft games usually require the data to be installed on the internal. Will foldermount you can move those large folders (or any other folder) to the external sd and free up a lot of internal memory.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lbhocky19:
thanks gam3r just need to figure out foldermount and that should solve it. gameloft is just ridiculous, 2 gigs for a game

[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] frizfrelengfan:
The Optimum app from Cablevision allows subscribers of their TV service to watch on their laptops, tablets, and smartphones, as long as they're in the house with the device connected over local Wi-Fi. There are versions for iPhone, iPad, Windows laptops and Android devices, although not all Android devices are supported.

One of the devices that is supported is the Kindle Fire. I installed the app on my KF (second generation) and was enjoying it. Today I installed the latest stable version of Cyanogenmod (10.1.2-otter2) and re-installed my apps including Optimum. How disappointed I was to find that the app will not run on my Kindle Fire with the new ROM. After all it's the same hardware! I would hate to lose this app because otherwise, it looks like a solid ROM and I have the utmost respect for Hashcode. I would hate to go back to the Amazon interface.

Anybody know of any tricks or tips to get the app and the ROM to play well together? (Temporary unroot did not work.)

Thanks.

[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] frizfrelengfan:
I realized that I should have installed the Kindle Fire flavor of the app (the one from the Amazon store) instead of the one from the Google Play store. So I booted as stock, copied the apk file to the sdcard directory, then booted CM10 and installed from the sdcard. That didn't work either. :(
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] mindmajick:
From the very brief search I did on xda it appears that you will need to make changes to your build.prop file to get it to work.

You will need to do the research yourself since I'm not sure the EXACT lines that need to be changed. But search xda for "optimum cablevision"

And you will see others who have had similar issues with their devices.

Be sure to make a backup before you start tinkering... Since that's what it will involve- tinkering.

SOLVED: Optimum app on Cyanogenmod

Tinker I did, after reading about build.prop in a number of places. I used adb to dump build.prop to my computer (so it would be easy for me to read), restored to stock, and dumped build.prop again. I needed to change only one value, ro.product.model, to the value that it was in the stock Kindle, which was KFOT.

My first attempts resulted in being stuck at the spinning Cyanogenmod splash screen. My mistake was editing build.prop in the computer and pushing it to the Kindle using adb. What worked was editing the file on the Kindle, a bit clumsier for me. I used Ghost Commander to do the editing.

So far, no problems with any apps and the new value of ro.product.model.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
How do I search for and delete a spam ad in my operating system?

It shows up in my browser as adtracking.king.com/modules/(more stuff I cannot remember)...

I've searched everywhere and had no luck.

My phone is a Huawei M835 running android 2.2 which is rooted.

I've tried root Explorer, but cannot find /modules section.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trozzul:
the only way to delete it is uninstalling the app. turning off any connection to the internet works too i think.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
can I delete it via file manager?? ...

I've taken the battery out several times and can see where that's not going to work much. So I'll turn off my internet right after I post this.

FYI: the ad seems like it's on a timer. Plus it keeps telling me different things such as "your phone is at risk", "free app of the day", "Samsung galaxy phone", and the URL is usually for candy crush saga, which not only doesn't work on this phone, the URL redirects me to Google Play Store.

Thank you for helping me out!!

Is there anything else I should try??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
Get "airpush ad detector" , it is most likely some app that is causing this!

Delete the offending app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:

Is airpush available on Google Play Store??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
Yea
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
airpush ad detector wants me to delete / uninstall network ....

Okay, I got airpush ad detector and it wants me to uninstall network. Will this disable my phone?

I wish I could just install the new Linux kernel.

Don't know! What exactly is the name o the app? Any other info given? Is it one you installed?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
I was going to post another question mark but maybe not. I probably meant +1 to the ? . hadn't taken much notice of the kernel thing! :banghead:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
new kernel means fewer problems likely ...

I'm not getting anything more than the network notice.

Airpush doesn't mention an app or anything else so I'm really not sure what to try next. On most Linux systems, when you disable or worse, delete the network manager - your out of business. The thing stops working. I'm 200 miles from the nearest metropcs store, so that's why I asked.

The bulk of Linux distributions don't have issues such as this, so that's why I'd rather put the new Linux kernel in. Plus, I'm very familiar with synaptic and a host of things that android simply doesn't have.

I've actually found a premium Linux installer which installs Debian and Ubuntu on your cell phone right from sourceforge.net.

Also, I did some research and metropcs offers phones up to android 4.0. No word if they're still going to run in 2015 when metropcs switches over from cdma to T-Mobile's gma network.

I'm sorry for the late reply. I was nearly killed in a motorcycle wreck in January (6 months ago) and I've been sick in bed for a while. I was in a coma for 4 1/2 months. My new bike was destroyed. Several broken bones. - So I apologize.

The URL showing up in the address bar is http://adtracking.king.com/modules/ad tracking /?com.=candy.crush.saga. Is there a way to hunt this /modules directory down in Root Explorer???
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
You could try adding the address to the hosts file in /etc/hosts
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
The problem sounds oh so much like a malicious app, did you install something just prior to this starting? Maybe pull a logcat and try to see if you can't track down what's doing this.

FYI a lot of free games will do exactly this, try a clean wipe and just installing what you need

Shannon -2, demon - forum contributor

Thank you very much for getting back to me. Are there instructions or a thread that will help me do this?

Demon - I agree this is some balogna planted on my phone. Although I always use Google Play for my apps and never ever install games, I did get gingerbreak 1.2 from a non XDA source and I think that's the problem.

Is there a clean Gingerbreak link I can use??

Also, what android versions does XDA premium run on??? It's borked on my 2.2 version of android.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
Just search "NexusHD2-gingerbread " by tytung
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
mods got mad and deleted tytung's download links completely ...

Shannon -2,

I looked up, and found tytung's posts regarding the ROM's and even found the posts for the new 4.2 ROM's then bookmarked the posts too.

Since a few mods got mad and deleted the download links, is therê a place that will allow users to download the ROM's we need?

Also, will these ROM's work on non -HTC cellphones?? (Such as my huawei M835).

I honestly don't know how to determine if my phones have the type of / version of software listed to run the ROM's tytung's listed in his posts. - I read most of his posts in on huge thread, including the new screen he created with other Developers. I just don't have the knowledge yet to decipher if this is appropriate for my two phones or not.

Since your an experienced developer, will the XDA premium app run on android 4.0 or higher and let us post??

Lastly, is there a Developer that I can Pay to updated my ROM?

Thank you Shannon!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanman-2:
AFAIK all versions are supported by xda app.

If you search on google you will find links to tytungs roms, the mods don't want links posted here!!

Search for 'NexusHD2 Android forum' and you will find guides for installation on all of these roms.

No, these roms are specific to the HD2 hardware so won't work on your huawei M835.

If you want a fluid rom go for the gingerbread version, the 4.x roms have some lag!

If you have any problems post back here.

Good luck with it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
In search of a better ROM ...

Shannon -2,

I deeply appreciate your help and most of all, your patience.

I will search for the instructions right away.

BTW: I can't get XDA Premium to install on my Huawei M835 at all. The free version lets you send pm's, but won't let you post. - Something I hope to fix once I update my phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steve Eligoyo:
Shannon:

I took my phones to your way computers in Abilene, Texas and had my phones flashed with new ROM's.

They're lightweight and lightening fast.

So far I've done one ZTE Avid and the HTC Wildfire S.

The Huawei is bricked.

One more ZTE Avid to go.

You can't beat the prices either. - $169 per phone.

Zach is freaking awesome bro.

So I'm a gsm latam user. If I want to use a cdma rom, let's say Bionx, I need to flash rom, then patch for radio and finally kexec patch?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ddmclw:
Okay still trying to read up on all this awesome news. Just a few questions.

I'm going to flash catalyst ROM and I'm on CDMA .16 . I'm going to download the patch witch takes me from CDMA to GSM.. correct? Then install ROM as normal then flash the CDMA to GSM patch then reboot phone? Is that correct order? Or should I do diffrentley?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mydoom:
I am also had a qustion sam with you, i am using china stock rom and already dele my CID, will it aviliable to patch to kexx?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Please read the FULL post!

No need for CID wipe!

Yes, its correct like you said. Just see the downloads, the names should explain itself.

And also keep in mind that you may not be able to safe APN on CDMA to GSM patch (at least on catalyst) but maybe it works for you...

If someone has any idea to fix it, tell me. Or if someone wnats to help, I will send you something you can try around.

Edit; just booted eclipse rom working flawlessly :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] artur0588:
I did it long time ago, and you don't need libs. Full cdma to gsm patch made by me here http://d-h.st/2Bv. Working with any leak and official verizon rom.

By the way, kexec patch do not working with chinse rom.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lzto1320:
Hi Artur, may i ask which version of Chinese rom you use? 4.1.2-6.7.2_GC-404-430?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] artur0588:
6.7.2_gc-384-spdu-801

Say true verizon JB ROMS also have not boot with CDMA kexec patch and GSM kexec patch. May be kexec kernel do not support init.d with symsearch.ko module?

Finally i boot my ARTMOD for DROID RAZR XT912 on my EMEA RAZR XT910 with stock EMEA kernel after removed init.d which load symsearch.ko module. It's a little strange that stock 16 VZW support symsearch.ko but kexec not.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lzto1320:
Chinese has released a final JB firmwares,fix some bugs more faster and stable, if drail's patch working, you can give a try, it's worth man.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Chinese kernel is always different from all other kernels - have always been like that... if someone might drop me a source I will build it for kexec.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
thanks for the link, I'll try it.

But I tried it also without the libs and it started acting crazy for me.. I remember that my old GSM Patch (that one for ICS AOSP ROms from last year) worked w/o libs (partly)...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lzto1320:
Now the GSM Patch will not need libs again, just modify build.prop is working good.artur0588 make it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
you tried it already? APN woprks?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lzto1320:
yes, it has been a long time.....

You mean you didn't test it NOW?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndroidUser90:
I have this weird reception problem. Every once in a while, my phone would enter this weird state. It looks normal as I see my phone has reception. However, people would complain that they try calling or texting me and I would receive nothing. During this same state, if I try calling others with my phone, the phone call application would freeze and no outgoing calls can be made. Also if I were to send a text, I would see a "sending" message and I know for sure the text won't be sent. The only fix is to reboot the phone to get proper reception and I would be able to receive incoming signal and make outgoing calls/texts. Is there a fix or explanation for this problem?

This problem existed on my phone for a while, for stock, AOKP (all stables) and CM (10.1 stable). I don't know if its a radio issue as I tried different radios.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
I'm having a similar issue where I randomly can't send or receive calls even though it shows that the signal is just fine. A reboot fixes it.

At first I thought that it was the latest update to the ROM (Slim 7.5 weekly) and so I reverted back to 7 Official. It then happened again so I tried out the Carbon ROM...and it happened again so I went back to Slim but changed radios...and it just happened again so I'm trying a different kernel but I'm doubtful as they've had different kernels anyhow.

My guess is that it either has to do with hercules and 4.2.2 or just whatever commonalities which exist between the various non-TouchWiz ROMS. (if it keeps up though I'm going back to Embryo as it's TW-based and never had this problem)

Oh well, wish I could've offered a solution instead of the above but hopefully someone smart will come along and help.:laugh:

Where are you located and are you on T-Mobile? It could be tower work in your areas. I experience similar situations when they did the refarm and again during the LTE upgrades. Either way if you report signal problems they can have the towers checked where you are.

On T-Mobile in Houston.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fsured:
It could be the work to tweak and expand the LTE in Houston. I know on my phone I get sending errors when I don't delete message threads that are huge. I'm talking about 1000+ txt to the same person with pictures etc. It's just more memory that the phone uses up to display all of that information. You could try deleting some old messages, after backing up anything you want to keep, and see if that helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
