I miss you guys, the moto droid turbo forum is so hostile! Still find myself reading through here from time to time haha
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
I hear ya, Cory. We miss you too! "Hostile", LOL! That's funny. :laugh:

The sad part is that I believe you and know it is true.

This Razr thread is more helpful than most. The Droid Razr is an older but very good smartphone. Most of the people here are a bit more focused and mature. We share a common goal and interest, to keep our devices rooted and to have CM11 installed and working as our rom of choice. The Droid Turbo is a new phone, no root, no roms available. So there really is nothing to talk about other than a bunch of youngsters "talking smack", which is good for nothing but starting arguments. :(

This youtube video shows "how to root a Droid Turbo" but I don't really believe it though.

[YOUTUBE]LzOz7r5X4dE[/YOUTUBE]​

If the Turbo were a phone you could root, then there would be a serious purpose for the Turbo thread, to root and rom the device, most of the members would be united with a particular goal in mind, and you would have a more mature and focused thread. VZW went very far out of their way to get people to give up their root friendly phones like the Razr which has been rootable for a long time. And VZW went through a LOT of trouble to make sure no one would root that new Turbo device to beat their advertising and get free hotspot. I got caught up in the Turbo Hype myself until I realized that the phone would end my root and rom days, and that was a deal breaker for me. Hey, we *are* your friends and you are always welcome here, Cory. Nice of you to stop in. Take care buddy! :D

Anyone want a Tutorial on how to keep your CM11 rom running well?

Alright, I guess you all know by now that I am "In Luv" with my new rom, the 01/05 Nightly Build. I have had tremendous success with not only getting good roms installed and working, but keeping them lean and fast with Titanium Backup Pro and Greenify Donation Pack. (The pay versions. Greenify $2.99 and Titanium Backup $6.58.) These are essential items for the Android toolbox. Most of us have them and can use them, but when you explore the Advanced Options in these apps, wow, what a difference you can make!

Is there any interest in this How-To keep your cm11 rom running lean, fast and getting it that way? If so, I will make the Mini-Tutorial if enough members want to see it. Give me a Thumbs up or a Thanks tap and I will post it, only if there are members who want to see it. If the Tutorial Vote Count is very low, then I will send the interested party the How-To by PM as not to spam the thread with something that does not interest them and the one or two that want it, will get it. :)

Oh gosh, day 4 and 01/05 is stoked, man! Any kind of streaming music, talk shows, and videos work great. Can use Maps and Navigation at the same time, and still use the phone. This does not happen in many builds, but this one "has it" and is my new, favorite CM11 rom. :D

Since I want this Tutorial to be good, I will re-write it and have it up in a day or two. Thank you all for your support and encouragement! :)

I totally agree having moved to the Turbo myself. I'm always coming back to this thread. It's great. [MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION] Really appreciate your updates and evaluation of the builds. And I realize many others have contributed so much. I really appreciate the opportunity to learn from such a great group.

My XT912 has been such a fun phone and is still running so good on the 11/7 build. I'm getting the itch to go back and play with 1/5. The Turbo runs great but man is it locked down.

I'll always be a fan of the RAZR MAXX. Thanks again to everyone who make this thread such a pleasure to be part of.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Thank you. Thank you very much!

Awww, poor Cory. I watched so many members here "jump ship" for the Turbo and I *knew* there would be no root for it. I just couldn't understand why. Then I did some private talking to a few of the Turbo users and what I heard, surprised me. Yes, they felt bad about losing root and almost all of them are very sad about this. To the point that the ads are now driving them nuts, cannot block, cannot de-bloat, cannot rom it, and no more free hotspot. But, for many members, the Turbo was their only choice. They have low cost "Edge Plans" for themselves, wives, and families. This Turbo was the *only* way they could get a new, powerful, phone at a low cost and not lose the low cost plan they had. The XT912/XT910 is old and will die in another year or so. Maybe not "dead died", but will become too obsolete to be practical anymore.

These members have a responsibility to their family and kids to provide telephones that will keep on going and will be fast and new. They had no choice, really. :(

Hey, don't kid yourself, that 11/07/2014 build is freaking *awesome*, is FINAL, and is missing NO features and everything works. It runs smooth as silk. A keeper for sure. I would have installed it as Stock and been done with it, but the CM11 "Final" Snapshot was a lot of hooey. I have learned so much here that I have an obligation to "pay back" what I learned here and with CyanogenMod pulling a stunt like calling M12 "Final" is a joke! I have to help this group and FIND a good build for them, testing, reporting, and making enough noise to not allow this M12 issue to be buried and forgotten. 01/05 is the best build to come along since 11/07. And there will be a few more until the real Final M13 Snapshot. So I will test, report, praise, and raise (hell) until this group gets The Final CM11 ROM that we have all been waiting for.

Yeah, I would say update to 01/05 and

Backup Your 11/07 Build first!

It installs and runs nice. Next day/night, reboot it to "clear it out" and it will run nice and contain any framework updates or bug fixes to date. (Many of the updates do not help use directly. "Update Chinese GSM carrier list" really does not help me at all, bro.)

...oh! I have been running this fantastic 01/05 build for 4 days now and have not made a backup in Safe Strap. I had better get to it, like NOW! This is way too good to lose. ;)

Thank you for the nice words. Happy updating! :cowboy:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] parser:
Mate at least you have a forum. My ascend g7 has got a thread only. At least we got root and stuff. Maybe with time we get roms too but,

I miss it here also :)

But I get at least 9 hours of screen-on time which is nice :P

I got my droid with me to goof around and try stuff. So when my finals end, I can also contribute to testing. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sherri:
[MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION], one question... I have read your instructions (and others have mentioned it as well) about NOT restoring data with TiBu.

This should more accurately state not to restore system apps/data with TiBu. Even with root and TiBu, and moving all "user" apps to SD card, a portion of data is always kept in system. I have some games I play (not Internet based such as Words With Friends) that I get to different levels. If I just restore the game with the market or from TiBu, I revert to low level. I have restored data for these games without incident. Other apps, such as Facebook or Tweetcaster, or even my beloved Light Flow, I have settings set to a specific way. Certain notification times, light colors, wake up times, etc.... I also restore data on these via Titanium and haven't had an issue....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CJ74753:
Mine don't seem to jump on 3G either, if I change it to CDMA only all I get is cell service, no data. Has anyone figured out how to get 3G working properly? Amazing looking rom and great work by the developers though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mr-Glass:
You can get to the APN's by using voice dialer and saying "Open APNs" (A-P-Ns)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Brantuck84:
Really? I didn't know that either.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mr-Glass:
Yeah I was surprised that still worked.. I think it was needed way back for CM10 for awhile, until it was corrected.. have had no need since now to try it..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] KurtSagar:
Hello, what theme is this ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CJ74753:
Doing this I finally got access to the APN's. I set my network to CDMA only and chose the EHRDP Verizon Internet APN which gave me 1x data, this lasted till I turned the wifi on then back off. Now when I do this the 3G pops up a couple of times then drops out less then a second later, its as if something isn't allowing it to stay on the network or something isn't sticking.:confused:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] marlowe310:
Ignore, Issue went away on its own.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
So can someone explain about this voice thing you say open apns? What because what brantuck84 what he originally said about how he got 3g was my first time I tried and after had just installed the rom it did that and now I can't do it. Also I never had the notifications lolv

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

This is what I did lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sonicshaman:
how do I get that screen?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
You push the carrier settings and then say OK and go back the this menu and you will see the access point names open now. I just can't do it any more for some reason.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Very good my dear Sherri. You are absolutely correct. I was a bit cautious when I stated this in Step #12 by saying "Restore apps only and avoid restoring app data." I did mean "avoid" doing it for everything, but you really can restore apps and data when the roms are identical or very similar. I restore apps and data for things like games or else I lose the hours and hours of gameplay I put in to get where I am. I also use it to restore my ES File Explorer because I have all the logins for my cloud drives like Dropbox, Gdrive, etc., and my WiFi logins, so I do restore data for things like that.

So it is NOT a steadfast rule that you cannot or never should restore apps with data, just avoid it in general for all apps, except the few apps where you really need it.

Good call, Sherri! I can amend the Guide to reflect this or wait until I get something else to add. I have updated that guide several times today and each time I do it, I recreate the pdf file, zip it up, remove the existing zip download, and upload the new one so that when a member saves the download pdf file, they get up to date guide. Let's see if there is anything else to add. Gosh the thing is getting pretty big as it is. But it is meant to be a bookmark Guide or better yet, a download file that the member can keep for reference. It really is not an ordinary post to read quickly in TapaTalk. :)

I will probably include the downgrade by Dwillian Dump for those who update their rom and did not make a backup. Then they discover the new rom update and have no way to "go back" to what once worked good. At that time, I can update the app & data point you made about Titanium Backup. I should also add credits but there are so many I am sure that I will miss an awful lot of people and do not want to offend them. :(

By the way, this 01/05 rom is really kicking stinking butt ever since I installed it. (If you are going to kick butt, it might as well be "stinking butt" as to provide a necessary service!) I did not have to reboot this rom to clear it up. I mistakenly made that statement regarding the 01/03 rom. This 01/05 build is my new "Keeper" and goes in the keeper folder with 11/07. This is really good stuff, man!

Yep, tips, suggestions, anything left out is what I asked for and clearing up the app & data issue is a very good point. Thank you for the suggestion! :D

UPDATE:

Item #12 altered to reflect Sherri's suggestion complete. Added "How to downgrade CM11" to the Guide. Added Credits. Updated pdf file download to include all changes. Please download the pdf zip again to get the most up to date version of the Guide that there is.

CM11 01/12 Build is out!

Hey, I am ever-so-pleased as you already know about the 01/05 release of cm11. That build is stellar, needed NO reboots to get it on track and is a for sure "keeper". I did get an email from Micheal because I mentioned to him that as of January 1, the roms are now "good again" and asked if he had something to do with that. He replied that he did not as he just got back but he did commit some changes to the cm11 build tree that would stop the phone from self-rebooting especially when first booted, and I have seen this happen in some of the late model roms. This issue is fixed now and Micheal is determined to get this cm11 build done and has even purchased a used but working well XT910 phone so that he can not only try to predict what roms will run smooth, but now he can participate and see how well the roms work for himself. Now THAT is dedication!

I have seen the roms get steadily better since 01/01, an in love with 01/05, and now checking the Changelog, I see that 01/12 is now out for download a full day early! I have already backed up this stellar 01/05 build and will now install and test the new cm-11-20150112-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip file.

I will report on the rom and how well it performs. We are only a very short time away from the once and for all Final release of the cm11 M13 SNAPSHOT. I just could not wait to spread the news. Happy romming everyone! :D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Haidersaleem:
I have flashed cm11 20150112,its really an awesome one custom rom.

Hi ohm..im really comfort with cm -11 -20141225-NIGHTLY -spyder . zip but i want upgrade to new one cm-11-20150112-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip,but im affraid my app is gone like fifa 15 my fave..:D what should i do?if im not mistakes..backup with TB right?data is save?one more question..this is final kitkat?or... Tq
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Haidersaleem:
Just download update from cm updater in setting and after downloading it will show manual installing,sit back and it will install it automatically without wiping,but u have to install ss 3.75 and update recovery.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] naifaharsy:
I am already install ss 3.75,flash with ss or what?i mean must manual flash..??sawrey..nubi here :p
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Haidersaleem:
If u install it by Manual procedure then u will not lose your data.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Hello naifaharsy,

Make backup in Safe Strap. This will keep a copy of your system and data the way it is.

Now take upgrade from /Settings/About Phone/CyanogenMod Updates/ and pick the update you want. Tap to download and install. Reboot when finished.

That is all. You keep your data and games that way. If new rom is no good, you go back to Safe Strap and restore the backup you already made. Can you do that my friend?

Kit Kat is Android 4.4.4 and many roms will continue to use it. Android 5.0, Lollipop is next but we cannot use that version any time soon.

No this is not the final cm11 rom, there will be more until the M13 SNAPSHOT comes out. But if you are smart and make a backup in Safe Strap before you update, you can alwasy "go back" if the rom is not good for you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LeopardSurd:
Hi guys! I'm an ex-user XT912 (GSM) user and I try to help a friend of mine to revive his XT910. It has the last European stock ROM for our region (ICS ROM), it's un-rooted and laggy like hell.

What do you recomend? JB stock or CM11? And if CM11, what build? It's very important for me to install him a „stable-as-stock” ROM. I know how fast is stock JB from my experience (it's not so fast compared to my actually Moto G).

What kind of remaining bugs has the best/stable CM11 build? It is the HD video recording now availble? How about HDMI? Are the reboots still a problem?

L.E. As far I studied the forum, the stable CM10.1.3 is not so stable. :( My frient does not want the last android version but just the best for everyday usage (calls ans sms, photos, FB and other social apps, no games).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
[MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION],his friend has XT910,not XT912.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
OMG, you are absolutely right, [MENTION=5057697]welder73[/MENTION]

Good catch! This is clearly your area of expertise. I live in the US, have an XT912, and don't know anything about these phones. Can you do this one for me, please? Once he gets the thing rooted and installs Safe Strap, I think the rest of the instructions are good. Thanks for pointing that out. :o

Anybody here know how to root an XT910? Please help out LeopardSurd to get him started. Thanks! :good:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ChungHung.Chen:
Hello! ICS is a terrible version of android because it consumes too many resources from our phone. CM11 4.4.4 rom in My wife's Sony Xperia Arc S(lt18i) which have only 512MB RAM is faster and stable than stock ICS 4.0.4! In my opinion, your friend should upgrade to stock JB 4.1.2 at least for "calls ans sms, photos, FB and other social apps, no games" from your requirement.

Now back to rom choices, stock JB 4.1.2 of XT910 is smooth and stable with all functions work. You can debloat un-necessary apps by TB or Link2SD to make stock rom simple and spare more resources. CM11 is more advanced but need some basic knowledge to use and debug. If your friend can handle it or you can help easily, CM11 may be a better choice because you can customize YOUR rom, but if your friend is a simple user ( like my lovely wife ), stock JB 4.1.2 rom should be enough.

In summary, from your post and your „stable-as-stock” ROM requirement, I'll recommend stock JB 4.1.2 to your friend. I have stock JB SBF file for EU retail, I can upload to MEGA or G-Drive if you need it. Remember to install SafeStrap even you only have stock JB, SafeStrap can give you TWRP backup and cache/dalvik-cache wipe which all very helpful.

Advanced option : if you wish to give CM11 a try, use SafeStrap to install CM11 in slot-1, keep stock in JB unless your friend can use CM11 well. All hardware function in CM11/XT910 are all functional now, including HDMI / GPS / Bluetooth / Camera / video recording in 720p 1080p / etc. I'm testing 2015/01/12 nightly now and it fast / smooth / stable than 20150101 version. will report it in few days. You should give nightly-20150112 a try.

<<EDIT>>

You can use Root Master to make stock JB be rooted. And recommend SuperSU for SU daemon.

Root Steps ( tested in XT910 / stock JB ):

Install APK from web site and launch the app, tap to get root. very simple!

Install SafeStrap -> Install recovery.

Un-install Root Master.

Reboot to recovery and flash SuperSU zip.

Now you have a rooted XT910 / stock JB and most popular SU daemon!

P.S. Root Master has build-in SU daemon but I'm used to SuperSU. Step 2-4 can be skipped if Root Master's SU daemon is enough for you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ChungHung.Chen:
Hi, I've added root steps to the post, please update the pdf, thanks! It's been tested on XT910. If someone can help to test on XT912, may be a golden tool to get root for JB?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
You got it Mr. Chen. Attached pdf updated to include root information. I would love to help test but my JB stock is already rooted by Razr Blade from Matt's Utility, not to mention it has been heavily modified with my slimming techniques. But anyone with Jellybean and could try this method to root Jellybean rom and post about it would be doing us all a great service. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] archie1988:
Does any one got battery % drop? or jump while charging?

I installed on my xt910 to stock slot cm-11-20150105 (of course did all the greenify and freezing thanks to Ohmster :) ) but my battery percents always jumping when charging +- 50% to full or when using the phone from 40+- to 20 or something like that.

I was lazy to ask about it because i have it on all build and no matter what slot. :crying:

Is there any fix?
