Hi, just wondering, after unlocking and rooting the phone, can I just download and install the Goo Manager app and install the TWRP recovery from there?

[Moto X Android Development] :
IDK. Using fastboot would probably be faster.

[Moto X Android Development] Bill Idol:
Thanks brudda. Now I had my Moto X DE for about 3 weeks now and I am finally thinking of unlocking the boot loader. I've been rooted via PwnMyMoto but I don't have to go back stock via rsd lite and sbf right? I can just go straight to the moto website and unlock and root it. Because the procedure will wipe the phone clean before unlocking it, right? (SORRY FOR ASKING THIS QUESTION AGAIN. Just don't want to screw things up):o

[Moto X Android Development] :
Unlocking it will not root it. Rooting happens later after flashing twrp. Unlocking will essentially do a factory reset. How that will be affected by being rooted, I don't know. If I were you I would fastboot the stock recovery then unlock.

Thanks for the recovery. Everything seens to be working fine, but when I flashed, a message appeared: "Variable not supported". Should I be worried with something or it's normal?

[Moto X Android Development] flashallthetime:
Hot mine within minutes after entering my bootloader code
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Yeah....I sent the boot code via chrome on the phone itself, and it seemed weird after hitting the submit/"Are you sure, this void warrenty?" as it went to a blank page. Got to work (my only access to the web besides tethering to my PC or the phone) and resent it and got the code soon as I hit the button. LOL....now I have to get the TWRP.img and wait until I get home to finish it off, can't load adb/sdk as my work PC is locked down hard and "watched".
[Moto X Android Development] Bill Idol:
Yeah everything at my work too is locked down. All happened after everyone started abusing the porn sites. Lol. I didn't get my unlock key until after a few minutes. I kept thinking that it didn't work.

But it sucks now because every time u reboot you get that "This phones boot loader is unlocked" screen. Lol:D

just tried to unlock mine, placed the code and accepted the terms and the screen went blank.

guess i will give it couple mins.

edit:

got my code, time to flash the recovery and root this bad boy.

edit2:

site is down, where can i get the recovery img file?
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
There's a way to change the boot loader unlocked screen, its in the themes/app section....something to do with clogo?

I tried sending dhacker a g+/hangouts message about the site being down. Might have to get someone who has it to send/mirror it. If it was zipped, believe it would fit xda's file size requirement and could attach it here in the op...?
[Moto X Android Development] RorixRebel:
it would be great if someone could send us the file.

kinda feel the urge to get the root done and actually start installing my stuff on the phone.
[Moto X Android Development] Jexx11:
Yeah its very simple to flash a new boot image, that's the first thing I did after unlocking.

never heard of the bootlogo one

i just need the recovery one so i can get TWRP and then root my phone.

PM the links or something cause i don't think we can post things in here.

Same issue as you, then did as you said and BAM worked first try after
[Moto X Android Development] silfa718:
I did this last night and it worked great.

My only issue was my own. On the bootloader I kept trying to push the power button to select instead of Up on the volume button. (*GNex habits die hard I guess)

Now I'm unlocked, got my recovery, and rooted....and I don't know why I don't need anything.*
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
The volume up vs power button has gotten me quite a bit. I too am used to the power button configuration. My main, pretty much only reason for rooting is Android WiFi Tether.

How would I go ahead and flash stock recovery. I want to be ready for when the 4.4 OTA comes along...
[Moto X Android Development] beelzebu:
You need to download your stock firmware from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/ghost_rcica/list.php extract it and flashboot the recovery only if you are on android 4.2.2, if your on any of the leaks yo need to unzip those leaks and flash the corresponding recovery.

to fastboot recovery use the one provided or the one for android 4.2.x and do the following in fastboot mode.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.

note put the recovery image on the same folder where you are running fastboot.

hope this helps ;)
[Moto X Android Development] shaya4207:
Awesome Thanx!!!
[Moto X Android Development] beelzebu:
You are welcome, note that I edit original post as I misspelled the comand, it is:

[Moto X Android Development] piccit:
Has anyone been able to get this to work after the 4.4 update?

The first time I flashed it, it got stuck on the TWRP logo. Subsequent tries didn't even get that far. (CMW recovery seemed to work OK as far as flashing, but it crashed when I tried to choose a zip to flash)

EDIT: never mind, there is a new version here

[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
Re-flash the recovery image, use volume down to scroll to recovery and volume up to select instead of the power button. I'm guessing you hit the power button to select it.
[Moto X Android Development] shaya4207:
Nope, did that

How are you already rooted if you're unable to flash this recovery? Is your bootloader unlocked?
[Moto X Android Development] shaya4207:
Unlocked bootloader, currently on TWRP wanna go back to stock recovery, sorry just realized that it may have not been obvious
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
I think you'd have to use RSD Lite to return back to stock. Not sure about that though.

[Moto X Android Development] shaya4207:

Like I said, I'm not sure. I've never heard of anyone going back to stock recovery. Maybe you should ask in that thread.

to get back to stock recovery, all you have to do is fastboot flash recovery <stock_recovery_file_from_fxz_files>

[Moto X Android Development] :
I'm on the Rogers xt1058 stock 4.2.2 and getting variable not supported. Only recovery I can flash seems to be 4.4 twrp....but restoring with that gave me bootloops.

Any ideas??
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Pretty much just had this happen. My feeling through testing is TWRP related. I found it seemed to have corrupted the data partition as I could wipe or flash system/boot alone just fine, but if I tried anything cache/data it would freeze TWRP, then bootloop. Fastboo data format or erase gives bootloader error, variable not supported, remote issue..... something along those lines?

Stock recovery should also be save by TWRP. If you go to system/recovery-from-boot.bak and remove the .bak.....when you reboot to recovery it should load the stock one. Believe that's the correct name, regardless if you go to the bottom of the system folder it's that one, with the .bak.

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

Try wiping data or cache and see what happens. Then try restoring just a system back up and see what happens. Pretty sure we have a recovery issue.
[Moto X Android Development] :
As much as I prefer twrp....I have CWM working good....did a backup and restore to test it. No issue. Gonna stick with that. I need a reliable restore option. I tinker a lot! lol

[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
An OTA installer script checks system files. It makes sure the current files match the sha checksums they should be, so if you altered a system app or file it will notice since the checksum will be different. And it notices when a system app or file that shouldn't be there is, i.e that TWRP file or if SU is installed as a system app.

I've been using both the 2.7 and 2.6 images, however my USB OTG device does not mount on the Droid MAXX (Or at least not automatically). It works fine in CWM and mounts automatically there.

Are there any special steps one must take to mount an external drive? Is it even possible with TWRP?

"The Galaxy Gear is rated according to Ingress Protection Rating to be IP-55"

IP55. Ingres protection

For the first digit:

0 = No protection

1 = Protected against objects greater than 50 mm diameter

2 = Protected against objects greater than 12 mm diameter

3 = Protected against objects greater than 2.5 mm diameter

4 = Protected against objects greater than 1.0 mm diameter

5 = Dust protected

6 = Dust tight

For the second digit:

0 = Not protected

1 = Protected against dripping water (i.e. vertical plane)

2 = Protected against dripping water up to 15 degree angle

3 = Protected against spraying water

4 = Protected against splashing water

5 = Protected against water jets

6 = Protected against heavy seas

7 = Protected against effects of immersion

8 = Protected against submersion

There we go.

This is the water resistance chart for wrist watches. Surprised eh, Not at all what you would expect is it!

"Water resistance rating Suitability Remarks

Water Resistant 3 ATM or 30 m Suitable for everyday use. Splash/rain resistant. NOT suitable for showering, bathing, swimming, snorkelling, water related work and fishing. NOT suitable for diving.

Water Resistant 5 ATM or 50 m Suitable for swimming, white water rafting, non-snorkeling water related work, and fishing. NOT suitable for diving.

Water Resistant 10 ATM or 100 m Suitable for recreational surfing, swimming, snorkeling, sailing and water sports. NOT suitable for diving.

Water Resistant 20 ATM or 200 m Suitable for professional marine activity, serious surface water sports and skin diving. Suitable for skin diving.

Diver's 100 m Minimum ISO standard (ISO 6425) for scuba diving at depths NOT suitable for saturation diving. Diver's 100 m and 150 m watches are generally old(er) watches.

Diver's 200 m or 300 m Suitable for scuba diving at depths NOT suitable for saturation diving. Typical ratings for contemporary diver's watches.

Diver's 300+ m for mixed-gas diving Suitable for saturation diving (helium enriched environment). Watches designed for mixed-gas diving will have the DIVER’S WATCH L M FOR MIXED-GAS DIVING additional marking to point this out."

As one can read, A watch rated at 3ATM cant even be taken in the shower! Don't start me of on this. I have known about this 'con' for many years as I collect watches. I learned a very expensive mistake by taking a multi thousand euro watch into the shower that was rated at 3 ATM or 30M. After all I have never taken a shower at a depth of 30M!

I will only shower or swim in a wrist watch rated at 200m Just to be safe. I change my watch daily, its my hobby. I don't take any of them in the shower. Its now a habit same as removing ones glasses.

I find this acceptable for the Gear. It can take a splash etc but not full immersion-submersion. I have every confidence the Mk11 will have an IP57 or IP58 rating.

Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] SgtGoldy:
Thats actually awesome information. Thanks for this man. I never planned to take it in a pool, but its good to know that if it rains Im not going to sh*t myself worrying about my watch.

After getting that information from you I googled it and came up with this as well:

Pranav Mistry, the lead designer of the Galaxy Gear, tweeted a picture of a kayaking trip purportedly taken from his Gear. The tweet included a message that Gear has a IP rating of 55, which is fairly decent, but still comes up short of the Active's IP67.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] megzy:
Perhaps nano coating will be possible to increase the resistance. This can be done with most phones nowadays....

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Ryland Johnson:
I took grave exception to the publicity employed by Sony regarding their range of Xperia Z devices. Water resistance to a given industry code have been employed YET in the Sony manual Sony make it clear that their devices are not to be used in swimming pools nor the sea due to chemical corrosion so what do Sony do they advertise their Xperia range with a chap in a swimming pool?

IF you use the Galaxy Gear while kayaking and the gear becomes immersed the gear would be damaged. The gear, in my opinion, is very much a prototype device that is going to test public demand. I have every confidence the next range of gear watches will have a greater ability to withstand water emersion. My problem is I dislike being the sap who is paying for Samsung's development. This is a 300.00€ device!

It is going to be very limited were we are able to use it. I have still to take the plunge and use mine outside the house. I just cannot imagine myself holding a wrist watch to my face to speak into it. As a child we had a local chap who would do this and we all knew he was gaga:p

I think a further few months of development would have resolved the water resistant situation. Sony did so.

I ponder what the return rate is going to be? :o

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] viduj:
It will be waterproof. Since it is a smartwatch so waterproof feature is a must. I hope it is ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Ryland Johnson:
Did you read the previous posts? IP55 is not even close to being

water resistant

. Please do read the manual and learn about the Gear before you end up with a paper weight.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] nusul:
it's just water drop proof, not immersion. But i have washed my hands, use it during rain (whitout shirt), with no impact of it.

But didn't tried to immerse it :) and will not.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Ryland Johnson:
I think it rather unwise for Samsung to introduce a wrist watch that is not at least to IP68. It lives on our wrists and unless we live like pigs we wash our hands multiple time per day. How long do you think we can do this without some drop of water ending up going some where it shouldn't? I don't have the time nor luxury to nurse maid a watch 24-24. Its rather silly really isn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] sebbo90:
Correction the Z1 says that you take it in a pool on the first page of the manual
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Ryland Johnson:
I refer you to the manual on the Z that I have quoted here so many times. The Xperia Z could NOT be used in water containing salt nor chemicals. I have no information at all on the Z! I was referring to the Z range this the Z phone and Z tablet. I own both like them very much and in both manuals it is clear they are not suitable for use in swimming pools even though the Sony advertising for both units have a man sitting at the side of a swimming pool and his wife pulling him into the water Phone-tablet in hand.

Perhaps the newer Z! has been further developed and utilises some sort of different material for the water resistant protective flaps.

Oddly I have to add in my case all this is academic as I would not use a phone nor tablet while in the shower, batch, swimming nor beach. It is choice, to me its just absurd that one would become so attached to such a device that they need to take them into the shower or swimming pool?

Each to their own.

I will take a look at the Z1 manual. Interesting to read they are now suitable for use IN the swimming pool. Thanks for the update though:good:
