Well, it would randomly go from full bars to like 1 bar and not go anywhere on the internet. I may have exaggerated and said this happens every day...when it may have only happened once.

Either way, talked with them yesterday, and they over-nighted me a new phone. Got it today with 4.2.2....the Obake 12.7.7. I'm in the process of flashing 12.15.15 on it now.

I'll update once I have completed the root method.
[Motorola Droid Maxx] camaro4life18:
SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1one

Here are the steps I took to root my XT1080 (I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone)

These are high level steps, search XDA for step by step instructions on how to do it.

1) Get Verizon to warranty your phone and mail you a replacement (Odds are it will come with 4.2.2...no camera update)

2) Use RSD Lite to flash the Obake 12.15.15

3) Use RockMyMoto to gain root access (Make sure you set super su to automatically grant access)

4) Use MotoWpNoMo to Unlock write protection

5) Flash Obake 12.15.15 again

6) Take the KitKat OTA

7) Use SlapMyMoto to gain root access

Many thanks to jcase for all the exploits and instructions on how to do everything. This isn't really a hack to 4.4, but I was successful with step 1 and now sit with rooted KitKat.

-How I can change color of my vehicle?

-It's easy. Smashed it against and ask repaint it when it will be repaired under the insurance.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Gratz....But what about those who live outside the U.S.???)))))

I propose to call the jcase at a strip bar- that he put his root's method right in panties stripper:p
[Motorola Droid Maxx] redddog:
I really can't believe that Jcase is the ONLY person in the world who has the ability to root this phone.
[Motorola Droid Maxx] coronanlime:
I'm just glad I don't have a Samsung or anything. I think I would go insane if I couldn't root Samsung get rid of all that crap. At least I can deal with the version of Android they have on here without root. It is tough though.
[Motorola Droid Maxx] jcase:
I'm far from the only one
[Motorola Droid Maxx] redddog:
Maybe I should have stated it differently. First, I want to state how much appreciated your previous work is by me and the whole community and also, how much I respect your decision to focus on what's important for you. Totally.

I hope I don't sound like a douche.

I was really just stating that I find it hard to believe that someone with the ability and the time hasn't come in and claimed a pretty sizeable pot of cash and hero status buy rooting this damn thing.

You didn't, I was agreeing with you.

I'm ready to donate about 20$ for rooting and 30$ for bootloader unlock way.

a bit of offtop:

i researching how to hack bootloader and find a way how to put our device into low-level pre-bootloader mode. In this mode you cat flash Blank Boot by special qualcomm utility.

Also, i find the same theme at xda here

and found interesting information how to change values into protected memory blocks to remove validation of firmware parts - by JTAG.

If somebody wants to know about it, i'll share this information.

But i think - it's terrible, very dangerous way even trying to unlock this method. But, as i think - it's 100% working, 'cause it program into low-level mode, like at the factory.

Please withdraw my $100 towards the bounty (note that my post to bump from $50 to $100 got deleted).

For me, there was a lot of interesting stuff going on in this thread (~66 pages worth), which I have been monitoring at least daily since it was created. While the reasoning and work behind cleaning up a thread is admirable, much of the information that is now lost does not exist elsewhere. I suppose people (myself not excluded) who post interesting things slightly off-topic are to blame, but the primary reason I want to withdraw my bounty is because I no longer wish to monitor this thread if it's just going to be about the money and not the status of getting root on our devices. If I had any value to add to the root discussion, I'd create such a thread myself.

IMO, this thread might as well be dead. The creator of it has been MIA for weeks, many people have since unlocked their bootloaders, no one seems to be working on root for 4.4, and jcase has announced he will release his root method with 4.4.2. Too much has changed in the last month or so, and I would find it hard to believe that a high percentage of the original pledgers would pay up. I personally withdrew my bounty, and I have an unlocked bootloader, but I intend to donate to anyone who shares a root method for our phones in the future as my way of saying <cheesy>thank you for making the world a better place</cheesy>.

EDIT: and in another one of his videos he said that if he finds any exploits...he would give the OEM 60 days to respond...so the wait for the release probably involves multiple parties...
[Motorola Droid Maxx] foolishness:
Why would anyone here be interested in an exploit when it's so easy to just get an unlock code?

Happily rooted XT1080M DE
[Motorola Droid Maxx] br0adband:
Because the exploit is typically free of charge, I suppose, and the bootloader unlocking code is $40 (or more in some situations).

I'm still considering the purchase of a code - I've got my MAXX up for sale but nobody seems interested in it. It's a sad thing to own something that's so nice and powerful and has tons of great features and yet all people seem to care about anymore are iPhones and Galaxy devices... but then again I suppose with this bootloader crap keeping these phones "stuck" could be the deterrent itself. :(

If I could do all the stuff I wanted with this MAXX I'd probably try and keep it but I can use the money for other things I suppose.
[Motorola Droid Maxx] bigv5150:
Yes but there is a huge difference between an exploit for root and an unlocked boot loader.

If you unlock your bootloader, you might be able to sell it easier. Especially after that ability goes away

This is part of my livelyhood, how I earn my income, how I pay my bills.

I have, at my own decision and expense, published a LOT of freely available material on the subject. No reason someone else can't step up. If someone with no formal education / training, without an IT background can do it (me) so could any number of people on here.
