[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhdoubleoseven:
Hi there,

I just obtained a new Moto G which I am planning to use from now on, and I decided it would be beneficial to root my old phone -- Virgin (ZTE) Awe (N800) -- and try to gain some experience in the field of development. Mainly, however, I just wanted to upgrade the OS. I successfully rooted the phone using Kingo Android root; then I went on to try to install Cyanogenmod 11. However, it said my phone was unsupported.

Next step -- do it manually. So I downloaded the Android SDK and tried to get ABD running -- with no luck -- as I was trying to use abd sideload to load the OS file for Android 4.2 (but for Nexus 7). However, with failure after failure of trying to load abd, I has to ask myself: Will I brick my phone?

So, any thoughts? Are ROMs phone-specific? Can I get a better ROM for this phone? Would I brick it if I tried to load another phone's rom?

Any help/advice greatly appreciated!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smithjo4881:
ROMS are phone specific do your research google your phone virgin mobile awe n800 and after you type that just type xda there are roms for uour phone but after you root you need a recovery make sure your sd card will be sufficient to hold all of your backups and data

I think lagfix app doesn't do anything nor do via terminal command. I saw some people say Trim work on their devices but i am not sure about that especially what i understand from screenshots, Here they are;

Lagfix says trim was performed as soon as i run it.

Terminal shows 0 (zero) bytes trimmed.

As i learned from lagfix xda's page trimming should take minutes and (for example) ''239723590 bytes trimmed'' should written on screen.
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
"Kowalski M1-noRH" - trim does not work with that kernel, it only works with the alphas of 127

and it only trims something if there needs something to be trimed, if it says 0 bytes, then this is not the case
[LG Optimus 2x] Kenks:
i shared my settings in screenshot and update my signature. i am using 3.1.10 exp 127 Alpha 15
[LG Optimus 2x] wucinac:
I can see the amount of bytes trimmed. I've configured periodically morning to TRIM and then I see how much bytes is trimmed.

When I start the application manually show me the same as yours SS.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kenks:
Ok, I will try automated Trim this night and share ss tomorrow.
[LG Optimus 2x] I.m.Tuga:
Or Trim maybe works depending on how much apps you have installed.

If you have huge amount of data and cache from those apps then Lagfix can actually make some changes/differences....that's my theory...
[LG Optimus 2x] Kenks:
okay trim works :good: automatic trim at 6 am. i found these result in notification bar.

200 mb system trimmed

5 mb cache trimmed

50 mb data trimmed. and my phone didnt turn to a brick :D

XDA 2 does not see the accumulator, extinguishes the screen in an operating time in an expecting mode and does not react on stylus.

When XDA works from the accumulator, does not show a charge of it. But works about one day. In an operating time the screen is switched off and does not react to actions ??????, is included only by the button Power On.

When works from AC adapter the screen is not switched off

I think you confuse rooting with unlocking the bootloader. Check the All-in-One thread, everything you need to know is in there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Razor1973:
I have successfully flashed via ODIN 3.07 the following:

* stock bootloader that downloads with the SAMSUNG Galaxy S3 Toolkit (C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Samsung Galaxy S3 ToolKit\root\SGH-I747\boot-stock-dlk3-SGHI747.tar; 5,620 KB)

* stock recovery that downloads with the SAMSUNG Galaxyy S3 Toolkit (C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Samsung Galaxy S3 ToolKit\recovery\recovery-stock-dlk3-SGHI747.tar; 6,310 KB)

* stock UCDLK3 ROM from this thread (I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_I747UCDLK3_HOME.tar.md5; 1,166,061 KB), which I believe also includes modem, maybe even bootloader and recovery too.

Still, my AT&T S III will not go past the glowing SAMSUNG logo.

Any ideas?

UPDATE

: Factory restore in stock recovery worked.

[Moto G General] robagp:
you write "4) Select "supersu.motog.zip" "

but where is it? I cna't find on my phone.

If I need to transfer what I downloaded, I don't know how.

I can't transfer to my phone, because I can't chose on usb mass storage , because that is nowhere.

I downloaded, the widget, but it works only rooted device...

I try turn off, and plug usb and turn on, but I don't have usb mass storage nowhere.

Sorry but this 4.3 system is strange to me.

There is no USB Mass Storage mode on my Moto G.

if u flash the bootloader for 4.4.2 after u installed root u won t be able to boot into recovery clockworkmod

so u need to stay with 4.3 bootloader to making work the clockworkmod

we need a fix for 4.4.2 bootloader

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 AM ----------

there is no way untill now
[Moto G General] Cooptx:
Sorry, but one of the reasons for the bootloader is to prevent root. I don't think anyone's has rooted with a locked bootloader
[Moto G General] FiliBrushedRed:
Since this is a Motorola thing, there's no way of getting warranty back right? Not even relocking... I'm considering on doing it... (Sorry I come from Sony Ericsson devices which I used to relock and voila, warranty is on)
[Moto G General] Durteedee:
Lol you mean for this phone right? Phones I used before tend to have root and 2nd int well before unlocked boot loader

sent from the kitty kat Atrix HD Maxx
[Moto G General] nupi:
I find it doubtful that anyone will bother with 2ndinit and other irritating hacks if you can unlock the bootloader so trivially.

root without unlocked bootloader generally requires an exploit to be found in Android (or potentially a driver) and those have gotten increasingly more rare...

Flashing bootloaders is a dangerous operation - it's one of the few ways you can hardbrick your device.

THIS IS TEMPORAL , you take the risk.
[Moto G General] denzel09:
It's possible for other phones with bl locked. Boot from recovery, w/o flash it, only boot from a custom recovery, from here flash su zip.

I read here that on 4.3 using one of the modaco guides, omitting unlocking bl part, someone rooted his phone w/o unlocking bootloader.

In one of the first topic in this section.

Is there any chance to root without flashing modded fastboot and recovery? I want to stay stock and only need root for xpose....
[Moto G General] enewman17:
I have another method. This method doesn't require you to flash a custom recovery so you can keep the stock recovery if your just wanting to root.

1. I'm not sure if it will work without the bootloader being unlocked because I just did it without testing first. I hope someone can try this without unlocking the bootloaders if not, follow the OP and unlock the bootloaders, install drivers and adb.

2. enable usb debugging in developer settings

3. download the recovery you want to use. I prefer TWRP. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2759058

4. download SuperSu and copy the zip to your sdcard. http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip

in a command prompt where ever and however you have adb and fastboot set up on your pc.

enter the following to reboot your phone into fastboot.

adb reboot bootloader.

To boot a custom recovery without actually flashing it.

fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img

TWRP or CWM will boot and you can flash the Superuser zip and still retain your stock recovery so you can still install OTA updates.

OP... Please feel free to add this to the op if you would like.

Thanks and Happy Modding! :good:
[Moto G General] FoneWatcher:
If you unlock the bootloader through Motorola, then the phone's IMEI is already registered as being unlocked. That being said, I sent in a rooted Moto G for a bad SIM card slot and they replaced it no questions asked.

Pre-root compatibility

Hi guys,

I love this forum and want to thank you all for doing a great job here! :)

My question is regarding compatibility, seeing as I would like to be very careful with my current device (after having had bricked a crappier ALCATEL phone earlier this year...)

I have the Moto G, XT1034 running 4.4.4. System version: 210.12.41.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.ca

Can it be safely rooted using the method posted in this thread?

Thank you in advance!
[Moto G General] .:Addicted:.:
Please add these

1.Getting unlock data for unlocking boot loader Figured that

2.U didn't write fastboot command works in recovery mode boot loader,not when phone is on.

3.Do we have to place that mfastboot binary in platform tools folder along with all those images & bin file? We have to plce them

4.u write to press vol up vol down to enter recovery mode??really or vol down+power Figured that

5.what do you mean by place superuser.zip in "root folder".

Is that internal memory root I.e storage/emulated/o/ (or similar) or real root I.e "/" dirctory?

Please explain & if it's / directory tell how to do that.

No one answered.So i have to power on my phone then ,i copied manually.Then again have to go to recovery & flashed supersu

It would be better if u clear all these things in 1st post

Again thanks for tutorial
