[Moto X General] overthatscreen:
I know it seems like there's a lot of threads on Rooting already, but I was having the hardest time trying to find the correct thread for me because of the different variants of the Moto X. So I figured I'm not the only lost soul around here and wanted to take help someone else out. So here's I achieved Root after updating to Android 4.4. Keep in mind, Rooting Android 4.4 forced me to Reset my device and clear everything on it. I really didn't have a problem with it because I just got my device on 1/30/14.

1. Unlock the Bootloader

---- I made it easy on myself and followed QBKING77 on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sxgz7jxRMw

I have been following his tutorials since the days of the old htc EVO, great guy..

2. Install TWRP and SuperSU

---- I followed "" Guide for Unlocked Bootloaders "" by dray_jr http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2603358

There are a few problems here though.

At Step 2: After installing the SDK, to make things easy for me I have always created a folder name "" Android "" at the root of the C drive and copied the SDK contents: eclipse, sdk, SDK Manager.exe, to it. It just makes it easier for me. So it in turn sets my path for the fastboot to C:\android\sdk\platform-tools

At Step 3: Make sure to copy TWRP "" twrp-2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img "" along with "" mfastboot.exe "" into the directory that your fastboot.exe is located. In my case it would be the C:\android\sdk\platform-tools directory.

After flashing the Recovery, the command "fastboot reboot recovery" didn't work for me. It doesn't have that command available. Instead, go to your phone and use your Volume Down button to choose Recovery on the Fastboot Menu and use the Volume Up button to select. I repeat, use the Volume Up button to select Recovery. I am so used to using the Power button to select that it kept turning the phone off and rebooting since I still had the USB cable plug into the phone. So learn from my mistake and don't waste your time by pressing the Power button.

Other than that, the rest of the instructions from the above guides worked for me. So thanks to qbking77 and dray_jr for their tutorials.

I didn't know qbking77 did motox videos. He was great in the GS2 and GS4 forums.
[Moto X General] Jay10826:
Thanks a lot, this was very helpful...pretty much every other thread in existence had me believing it was much more complicated than this and i wasted many hours before I saw this.
[Moto X General] Roland Stone:
Yeah I wish I'd seen this 24 hours ago. I had to figure much of this out myself. I swear it was easier to unlock and root my old GNex than it was to unlock and root my "unlockable" Verizon Developer Edition Moto X!
[Moto X General] Schaweet:
Well it should have been easier. That was a nexus....

Seriously though, how hard was this? Unlock bootloader given website key and flash TWRP and flash superSU zip. Took like 2 minutes. Of course it could be longer if you needed to figure out the Sdk.

[Moto X General] :
Maybe I'm wrong....but with the boot loader unlocked....I'm pretty sure rooting this and my N7 was the exact same procedure. ;)

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X General] Roland Stone:
It was just annoying to have to jump through hoops just to GET the Unlock code, which was several lines of gobbledygook that had to be transcribed carefully and then retyped. Some people (like me) aren't conversant with ADB and command windows and such. (Yes I know, maybe people like me shouldn't be rooting around under the hood of our phones.)
[Moto X General] larry62:
May end up ordering a GSM Developer Edition tomorrow. I believe it's the same procedure as outlined here. Can someone confirm this.
[Moto X General] Gus194:
Yeah, all I did was unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, then installed the SuperSU zip and when I rebooted I was rooted. :)
[Moto X General] Restola:
Next time copy the cmd text into notepad then copy/paste from there.
[Moto X General] Wool02:
Yes. Text messages are part of data.
[Moto X General] deathsled:
christ, you typed out the unlock data? :laugh:
[Moto X General] unsivil_audio:
^--you can't copy/paste from command line. I did the same thing.

I also agree this was a royal pain in the ass. Took me forever to find this information as well. This is not my first rodeo, btw.
[Moto X General] Mr. Orange 645:
Are you guys downloading and flashing SuperSU separately? Because when I flashed TWRP it advised my phone was not rooted and fixed it when I rebooted. I didn't have to download or flash anything separately. It was incredibly simple...after going through the website for the unlock code of course.

And yes, just like the Nexus devices, unlocking the bootloader automatically does a factory reset and erases all data as a safety precaution.
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
right fastboot reboot recovery doesn't work.

You could do... fastboot reboot bootloader to get into bootloader instead of messing with holding buttons.
[Moto X General] bengadget:
You can. It's in the video.
[Moto X General] flashallthetime:
Did not work for me so I manually input the code

Sent on my Gummy running Lenoto X
[Moto X General] DarkAce22:
After i follow the above steps for my GSM Moto X Developer Edition with Android 4.4, will i still be able to get OTA updates as long as I keep the stock ROM ? I like the stock ROM anyways. Also any issues with the hands free "OK Google Now" voice feature after rooting and unlocking bootloader?
[Moto X General] mroneeyedboh:
After doing this we should be able to retain unlocked and rooted right?
[Moto X General] piccit:
TWRP itself is designed to allow you to take OTAs.

But for one people have reported that the twrp version out there reports the phone as 1060 but the ota is looking for "ghost" (or it might be the other way around)

But the real issue is that historically moto's OTAs do a system check and won't run if there is anything modified in system (the installation of twrp modifies system)

So, short answer: no, you have to flash stock system and recovery before taking an OTA. (or you can wait for fastboot files and flash them)

No, no issues with any features after unlocking / rooting

How do I flash my phone back to stock At&t stock rom if my device is rooted and has unlocked bootloader. I tried using a method with rsd lite and it didnt work. Any help?

My device is rooted and has unlocked bootloader and is running Cyanogenmod 11.0. I'm trying to flash stock At&t rom: MB886_att-user-4.1.1-9.8.0Q-97_MB886_FFW-20-27-release-keys-ATT-US_BuildA.xml . How can I do so? Because I connect my device and rsd lite detects it but doesn't read it's info or nothing and you click start and says failed... What should I do?

You have to do the step called read and stop being lazy and asking us to do the work you can do all on your own.

EDIT

In addition to the above, I ammend this post to refer you to this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2350721 , and inform you that right now, by not making any attempt to do things yourself and begging for us to fix things for you, you are being exactly like the character in the video at the bottom of post #1 from the enclosed link.

Well if you entered on my thread is to help me. If you didn't wanted to help and tell the steps. You shouldn't had posted!!
[Motorola Atrix HD] maiquito:
My system is rooted and bootloader unlocked
[Motorola Atrix HD] palmbeach05:
I didn't ask you that and I wasn't advising that.

MAIN PARTS:

1. Installer ADB/FASTBOOT/APKTOOL for AHD

****** 2. Flashing Tools for stock firmwares (compatible with ICS/JB of AT&T, BELL and Mexico AHD;

include options for installing CWM recovery, no needs to care about editing xml any more, just put firmware into our tools and it will do for you)*****

I actually wasn't being rude, i was stating facts in a neutral tone.
[Motorola Atrix HD] maiquito:
OK thanks. I'll try with the mythtools.

I was unable to get myth tools to successfully complete any action I tried.

Rsd lite worked for after a few tries.

CodefireX 4.4.3.2.1.000.000 Open Master​

CodefireX.com[/url]​

This well established Android distribution treats development differently than any other to further our Android platform as a whole. This is the fastest source built ROM you will find on this forum, and also the only one to utilize our unique build system and a custom LLVM 3.5 suite based toolchain globally.

Here is our very well supported Issue Tracker.

We utilize a plethora of unique optimizations in a build system unlike any other:

Utilizing the LLVM CLANG CI globally, working heavily with upstreams with a goal of furthering our entire Android platform.

Consistently updated upstream toolchain module source with our custom backports, fixes, and optimizations applied in a patch at build time.

Fully built utilizing Link Time Optimization and Polly optimizations (another custom ROM first). Feel free to google these a bit.

Much of our source have code fixes, cleanups, and many minor optimizations to set us even further ahead of the community. These are too generous to even speak of here.

Optimizations are toggled on and off based on device for the best experience we can achieve for your device without sacrificing stability

Many Qcom optimizations and AOSP master (upstream) optimizations and fixes using device specifications to determine usage.

Fully built utilizing strict aliasing and isognu++11 mode.

Utilizing all O4 optimizations (Optimization Level 4) including LTO (with binutils plugins), and additionally LLVM Polly.

Of course we also have several neat UI features, including but not limited to:

T-Mobile Theme Engine.

DPI Wizard (no junk like build.prop tweaks).

Quick Settings panel customizations.

Live network stats in your statusbar.

Button backlight customizations.

Hardware button customizations.

Volume button customizations.

Many more being added during the nightly builds.

link removed[/url]

Our thanks go out to all the open source developers who made our work possible.

Below is an ever-incomplete list of some of the 'indirect' contributors to our ROMs:

The Android Open Source Project

LLVM CI

Linux Foundation

Code Aurora Forum

CyanogenMod Inc.

Chainfire

The entire 8960 CM team for making this device relevant still!!

Many more!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] TheGOAT232412:
Thanks for the new work
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] chupajr:
Thanks! I'm testing this out. It's quite nice!

The only issue I've run into in a few hours of operation is that I changed the App Switcher hw key to be Open/Close Menu. Then, pressing that on the home screen shows a UI with a couple of options. But, when I press on Settings, it doesn't do anything.

Definitely not a big issue since I always use Nova anyway (and it works fine in Nova), but just wanted to pass that along.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
Testing fixes for that today...

Other notes on today's builds...

Today's builds should have fixes for most of the app related issues that have been reported thus far. Only exception is the FC that was reported with email app. That should be fixed in tomorrows builds.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] TheGOAT232412:
Checked the OP, I was just curious if there was anything not working on the ROM. Of course the work is much appreciated, I was just looking to flash something new for tomorrow. I just won't be around my computer tomorrow if I need any kind of fixes.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
Only issue we still have that I know of is swype FC's. However all our servers are down for maintenance this morning. And haven't come back up yet
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
Has anyone who tried this ROM had the issue with the radio? I.E., the radio gets borked and the phone number comes up as all zeroes in the about phone section. That was the one reason I was never able to use a CM10 rom. Every one I tried borked my radio so I've been stuck with the stock ROM. I would love to get on a more traditional Android based ROM, but I can't have the radio problem.

Also, does this require any special version of CWM recovery?

Thanks....
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
If you have this issue on cm11 you will have it here as well.

You need a newer cwm or twrp capable of flashing. I would assume there one floating around here somewhere for CM11.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
Everything seems to be working fine. No problems with the borked radio so far. I do have a couple of questions about some options that used to be available in Android 4.2 and 4.3 based ROMs. I don't know if these were things that the ROM developers added or if they were there by default and Google took them away in android 4.4.

1.) There used to be more options for the status bar. Things like adding am/pm to the clock, changing the battery icon, etc. Were these options that Google took away or custom options that the ROM developers added? If they are custom, are there any plans to add them back?

2.) There used to be the option that if you pulled down the right side of the notification window, it would bring up the Quick Settings tiles by default. Again, was this an option that Google took away or custom options that the ROM developers added? If they are custom, are there any plans to add them back?

3.) Any plans to add an option to wake the screen using the volume buttons to help reduce overusage of the power button? Not a big deal, just curious.

4.) Not a big deal here, but how do you turn off the CRT animation when putting the phone to sleep? I know it's in there somewhere, but I can't remember which setting it is under.

Probably think of more eventually
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
Thanks for the feedback, glad to hear its running well. I never get much feedback here as there's a pretty limited userbase. Keep in mind CFX was designed to be minimal, as close to aosp as is functional and minimal set of important features.

1. That's all custom add-ons. We may add some eventually..

2. Custom addons as well but this is something I'd like to add as well.

3. Also custom, also something I'd like to get added.

4. There's no option here to kill just that animation. Under developer options in settings(tap build # in about phone 7 times to expose this menu) you can disable all animations.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
Thanks for the answers. It is a nice smooth ROM and the things I asked about are not really a big deal. It won't keep me from using it because I finally found an AOSP rom that doesn't bork my radio.

Now I just need to figure out how to flash a few modified stock .apks. My updater script doesn't seem to work with Kit Kat or my current version of recovery. I may have to try and remember how to do it manually. It's been so long that i've forgotten the steps.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
Just wanted to pop in and say while I would love to give you feedback on the ROM, I have no feedback to give. It has run without a hitch for everything I have used it for. I have no idea what you guys are adding in the latest nightlies, but the version I am using from February 8 is about as stable a ROM as I have ever used. I can't see how any of the newer nightlies could work better. I have no plans to update to a newer version until I see some significant additions, like the ones I mentioned a few posts up.

A couple of side questions. If you were me would you enable ART or stick with Dalvik? Is ART still in the infant stages at this point?

Also, what does the CFXTools.apk do? I always cleanup the ROMs I install by deleting apps, sounds, etc. that I have no use for. I was hesitant to remove the CFXTools.apk because I wasn't sure what it did. In looking inside the .apk, I think it is a weather app because I noticed all the .png files reference weather conditions.

Thanks for the great ROM. Others should really try this one if they want Kit Kat on their Inc4G.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
At that point CFXtools was an unimplemented weather app and all of our internal shorcuts and java goodies...its a holding place for all things cfx. So don't delete it :)

ART here is stable as ive ever seen on 4.4. AOSP has moved to art exclusivley upstream now. I will warn you though, there are some apps that just wont work on ART. Also when you switch first bot will take 10-15 minutes, and then you should reboot 2 more times to let it finish optimizing apps. After that you should be solid. This procedure will need to be done again if you flash a newer nightly.

Oh and FYI...ART is fast!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
Thanks again for the info. I went ahead and switched to ART. Every app I use seems to work fine. The one thing I noticed was that ART uses more space than Dalvik. I lost about 115mb of space switching to ART. For now I don't think that is a big deal. Apps do seem to launch a bit faster. The one I really noticed it on was PowerAmp. I'll be curious to see what it does for battery life.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
How do you get codefire to mount your removable sdcard when you connect the phone to the computer? It only mounts my internal storage. Thx...
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jrior001:
I'll look into that, not many devices have the SD card now. We may be missing something for that.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] flyinjoe13:
OK, thanks.

Do you have anyone involved with Codefire that has any theming knowledge? I'm trying to change the blue dialer numbers to white and can't seem to figure out how to do that. I changed all the dial_num_*_wht .png files in the dialer.apk and teleservice.apk, but that only changed the numbers for the incall dialpad. It did not change the numbers for the main dialer. I've looked through a bunch of the .apks trying to find reference to the dial_num files but so far have only found them in the dialer and teleservice .apks and that didn't work. Thought maybe you had someone on staff who might know what I am overlooking. Thanks....

[HTC Droid DNA] haleyrt:
Wondering if I need to send my DNA in for a jtag hard brick. I was using my phone last night through some speakers while charging it. Phone worked fine for at least 3 hours. When I was done I powered on my screen to turn off the music then powered off the screen again. After that the phone wouldn't boot.

Phone has done this to me in the past, usually just had to hold power button for a bit and lights would flash and all would be good. Nothing this time around with volume buttons and power held multiple times. Seems strange it would brick while I was just listening to music. another note is I did lose 4g capabilities about a week ago. I hadn't gotten around to wiping to see if that fixed it.

Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks!

Edit: My phone is rooted and was running cyanogen mod 10.2 stable release

Have you left your phone charging for a complete 24hours then powering it on. I've seen where that works.

Also you could also just get a replacement

That will be my next step, the phone was fully charged before right before it did this. I suppose I did forget to mention that my phone is rooted and has cyanogen mod 10.2 running on it.

You still can get a replacement. If the phone doesn't cut on then your provider will give u a new one.
