[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Ahahahahahahahah! That was really great, man. Thanks buddy. Ziva David, Cote de Pablo? OMG, that woman would literally kick my ass and be quite fine about it. If only she would let her hair down, she does have a certain "ethnic charm" about her.

Sherri is a really nice lady, I talk to her sometimes and Micheal too. These are really good people and to have friends like that makes all the difference in the world. It makes me feel good to know and be friends with honest, decent, good people who do not have "an agenda" or are backstabbers. People like you, Brian. You are a genuine friend and friends like you make me come alive. Thanks for allowing me my indulgence and stray off topic a bit. This Place (Sounds like that stupid rehab commercial, doesn't it?) is filled with so many good people with a common goal. To get the most out of our aging devices and in return, we get to make lifelong very good friendships here. I love it and have a lot of friends here for which I am, very, grateful.

LOL! Ziva is soooooo "Cute" and yeah, sexy. What am I supposed to say now? Shalom or is it mazel tov? Oh this is too much fun. Time for "night night" and Sonia Kitty has done her job well. I got my "bedwarmer" all fired up and the bed is quite ready. We will do some cool testing and man the help desk again, tomorrow. 'Night guys! :victory:

[MENTION=3782246]kayyappan[/MENTION] you are always very welcome here with questions on how to get the most out of your Droid device. We all take turns manning the Help Desk and you will sit in that chair yourself someday not too far off. You start by answering the simple questions that you can and that takes a load off some of the very seasoned experienced members to help with more difficult questions. But for now, you need some assistance and Brian, [MENTION=1807728]brkahughes[/MENTION] can probably do it best with your questions. Many of us here use Matt's Utility to install the original stock blur Jellybean rom that comes with the phone and all the bloatware has been removed. It is a simple procedure and Brian has taken the time to update Matt's Utility with more recent files and the most recent version of Safe Strap v3..7.3, comes with a wipe and install, an install w/out wipe, Razr Blade rooting tool, and Safe Strap 3.7.3 all in one nice script package that works on a Mac, Windows, or Linux. In his signature, you can download that package if you want, he puts the download page in his signature of every post.

AIO XT912 Stock Utility:

Reflash/Root/SafeStrap​

This might sound like I am evading your question but not at all, this is how most of us do our phones because it is proven, fast, and gets the job done, quickly and very nicely. You boot the phone from power off with the button combo for...

AP Fastboot:

Press Power + Vol Down. When the screen flickers (after 6-7 seconds), release Power, but continue to hold Vol Down.

Plug in your USB cable and run the updated script of Matt's Utility by using Brian's updated set. Instruction in the first URL above. We end up with a stock, rooted, bloat-free, stock blur Jellybean rom, and Safe Strap recovery to easily and quickly flash any rom we want after that. You can of course later on replace that stock slot rom with anything you like. Many of us use CM11 as stock as well as other roms. As Brian said, you cannot change the stock slot partition sizes but you can change them for any of the other available rom slots. We made a reference standard to give a user some good starter sizes for the partitions.

I don't do RSDLite or Oden anymore unless I have to. The above procedure is fast and painless. I really am not sure why you would want to do a hard button Factory reset on your stock slot when you can either do it by using the Factory Reset from the Settings menu in stock rom, or you could just re-run Matt's Utility if your stock rom is so badly damaged that you cannot boot it. If you really want to do this with RSDLite, Brian would be better at helping you with that. I haven't used ODIN in a long time and never needed to use RSDLite so I have little experience with it, other than to say that ODIN did work quite well and got my first rom on my first phone, a Droid X. Since discovering the Matt Script and Safe Strap, this is like a dream, so easy to install roms, update them, back them up, and change them.

You put Ubuntu on your tablet? How come? Were you just experimenting with it? Ubuntu is a really nice Linux distro, but I have never installed it on an Android device. I cannot see the reason to try other than if you are a devout hobbyist or experimenter.

I am not sure I am giving you the answers you want so I will step down and let [MENTION=1807728]brkahughes[/MENTION] see if he can get you on target. If you need help with the common and popular procedures I outlined I would be happy to oblige. Welcome to the group, kayyappan. Hope to see you happy and get a nice working setup soon. By all means, ask questions but do try to use plain English as to what your goals are. Many folks don't dive too deep into heavy tech terminology unless it is necessary to explain things or give explicit directions. Best wishes. :cowboy:
