[Moto X Q&A] jl33:
I'm really having one hell of a time figuring out the most correct steps to rooting the verizon model. What I've always done upon attempting to root a new device is read all available information and decide from there. Between XDA, Reddit, Rootz and YouTube, I have no freaking idea which one is the most tried and true. My previous devices (Nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus) were a walk in the park - even the droid X2 was a little easier to sift through and I faced less risk of very much destroying something. And after reading roughly 50 pages of threads here, I'm chalking most of this up to the device's immaturity. Regardless, there are people who have tried, succeeded and failed.

New folks need to hear what does and doesnt work in the most clear way possible and thats what I'm asking - what works, what doesnt work, what should I not even bother reading?

This.

Don't ask any questions, just follow the steps to the letter and you will be fine. I'm on a VZW model that I had to downgrade, and kept asking question after question.

You lose stock custom recovery forever, that's the risk on a non-dev-edition.
[Moto X Q&A] DuvelDroid:
I am in the same boat after recently getting a Moto X and coming from a Galaxy Nexus that seemed to have more consensus, or least clearly indicated. It was a bit daunting to trying to start to learn the process again after over 2 years.

User dray has got you covered though regardless of what Moto X you are using and what version of Android you are on. Go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2603358 and thank dray for his efforts.

I recently finished rooting my xt1060 starting at 4.2.2 and could show you what I did if you are in the same boat.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
You can't compare a nexus to a device with a boot loader that can't be unlocked. A little research before purchasing would have shown you that its not as easy to root.

If you had a Moto x with an unlockable boot loader...then it would be just as easy as a nexus to root. Same steps in fact. So its not device immaturity ....its the fault of the particular one you bought.

Just saying. ;)

That's nothing like the unlocked boot loader method...which is the same as the nexus method. And I can see how it intimidates new people.

So maybe quit quoting me with smart ass comments all over this forum and read the opening posts a bit more carefully.

He knows about slap ....its just a chore was his point...compared to flash recovery in fastboot...say yes to fix root.....reboot and done. Lol

Slap was one of the first methods I read about but I was then told that if I ignored the WP fix (like some of the guides leave out), Id have to go into recovery, and then reboot just to make changes to /system, which seems ridiculous. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Not forever. And what's a stock custom recovery? The only thing you lose "forever" is write protection if you use MotoPwnNoMo.

I don't find it to be ridiculous at all. Rebooting into "recovery" adds maybe a minute to the whole process.
[Moto X Q&A] elpeterson:
I'd like the same question as OP answered for the 1053 version. It really grinds my gears that there aren't separate forums for the different versions like they did with the variants of every other god damn phone (Galaxy Nexus as an example).
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Why do they need separate forums? They all use the same root exploit with firmware specific to their model. There isn't enough development to justify separate forums.

Unlocking the bootloader is the same across the board as is rooting a locked bootloader. The only thing that differs in the entire process is the firmware.
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
this phone is very simple let me break it down for you

locked bootloader

unlocked bootloader

lock need to use slapmymoto

unlocked and just install TWRP then install SUPERSU via custom recovery.

Yes, you can insatall any one ROM that you like ;) Every ROM contains its kernel and when you install ROM you also install new kernel.

You can flash any other kernels but this in ROM is optimized for it.

Mostly correct, but some cases are troubling (most notably installing 4.3.x over 4.4) so if it rejects known good ZIPs try flashing them over stock kernel+cwm6.zip

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] RoyF:
Hi everyone, I've been using this site for a while to help me through the occasional nightmare that is XDA Exec ownership... so thanks for your help so far.

I've just applied the new XDA Exec ROM today with AKU2 and I was under the impression there would be a Bluetooth phonebook sync profile now. Am I wrong?

I have a Sony Ericsson HCB-700 car kit with a phonebook button which is supposed to read the contacts list via a SIM Access profile of some sort.

Has anyone got this working? It sounds different to the Parrot solution where the contacts are pushed to the carkit, this appears to be direct-access by the carkit.

The only article I found here was this, but no solution yet.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] RoyF:
Now this is stupid...

Found this

http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2762

So Sim Access profile was available under AKU 1.1 for some phones, but the XDA Exec never had the build number greater than 14402.

Now with AKU2 we still don't have it? How crazy is that?

Am I missing something? Is is Microsoft or O2 that need a good kicking? :roll:

Edit : mistyping in title hboot is 1.54

Hello

I am at the very first stage of fully debranding my brand new Orange phone (restore HTC stock through RUU and get OTA updates, locked (and not relocked), not tampered).

I am unable to Soff with rumrunner 0.5 or firewater though I am very careful with all the prerequisites. I tried several times. hboot and mainver are a bit old (though mainver is uncommon) and other have succeeded to soff with similar versions.

What should I do ? I am OK to flash anything as soon if I am 100% sure to get S-on at the end. Or I relock, stay with Orange and operator's OTAs.

Thank you so much for your expert advice.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndroidUser12345678910:
Ok, so I was following this tutorial on how to put a custom ROM onto my Galaxy Gear by The Unlockr.

And this problem has happened to me twice already and Ive went back and double checked all of my steps alot of times on the 3rd try, but it still happened.

The problem is that after I move the custom ROM into the gears SD card and then I put it into recovery mode all it does is say "Installing system update" and then it boots up as a newly reset gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] waco2hot33:
What are the actual steps that you are taking to accomplish this...you are rooted I assume did you flash the null twrp recovery with odin
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndroidUser12345678910:
Yes, Ive successfully rooted the gear and flashed the recovery using odin on all times Ive tried it.

Heres what I did:

Enabled USB Debugging on Gear

Installed Samsungs Drivers

Plugged in Gear and let drivers install

Ran Cydia Impactor

Hit start on Impactor

Allowed access on the Gear

Hit start again (This time it finished the process)

Used WonderGo or whatever to put SuperSU on the Gear

Ran SuperSU and accepted the binary update or whatever

Now it is successfully rooted.

I then Downloaded the Recovery from the link in the tutorial. The file name was "null_03_TWRP2.7.tar.md5"

I opened Odin and unchecked the auto reboot box

I clicked AP and selected "null_03_TWRP2.7.tar.md5"

I hit start and it said that it successfully flashed the recovery

I opened WonderGo and under my device I hit files then chose SD card

I clicked add and added the ROM I downloaded from the tutorial, the ROMs file name was "null_21" and it was a ZIP file

Once it was done moving it to the SD card I checked to see it was in the right place, the root of the SD card, it was.

I Unplugged my Gear and put it into the menu that has "continue", "download", and "recovery"

I selected recovery

But instead of it going to TWRP it went to the stock Android System Update screen and then when it was done it rebooted as a new, reset gear
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] waco2hot33:
After you flash the recovery the null_03_.. you should boot up right into the recovery if not from there you should figure out what's wrong !!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndroidUser12345678910:
Wait, are you saying that when I use Odin to flash the recovery and then reboot the gear it should reboot into the recovery that I flashed?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] waco2hot33:
Yes....When you finish flashing recovery hold down the power button for 3 seconds or so boot Into the 3 options and choose recovery twrp should pop up then ...I usually backup my stock rom first then wipe dalvic cache and factory then flash the custom rom ...profit !!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndroidUser12345678910:
But in the tutorial it says to flash the recovery, add the ROM, and then reboot into TWRP

Not just boot into TWRP without adding the custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] waco2hot33:
Well I was assuming you already added the rom already with wondershare... you can do that without twrp just root access before the recovery process!!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] AndroidUser12345678910:
Yes, thats what im saying, i know it should boot right into TWRP but it doesnt, it just boots as a new Gear. And i cant figure out why.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Sounds like twrp is not sticking. There are lots of posts about this

I think best way to fix is flash stock mk7, then try and install twrp. You may need to stop odin from auto rebooting and may also need to remove a file from the gear (can't remember the name, but have a look around)

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamtan2:
Edit: Bumping this to ask again! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55441666&postcount=5

TLDR:

1) Sell or keep? Buy something else with the money?

2) Is there a stable ROM, good for a new user, which updates over time, and unlocks SIM?

So I found an Xperia Arc, new in box from years ago, that I got for cheap but never needed. Now I'm wondering: should I sell it and keep the money?

Or should I flash something on it and give it to the old man (who could play with his first android phone)? Or maybe I should do both: Sell the new in box phone and buy something else with the money.

What say you, XDA?

PS: Does the stable ROM you suggest have the ability to update itself, so the novice owner I give it to can keep it up to date? Will the ROM unlock the carrier SIM lock?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Personally, I would recommend getting something newer and better. Single-core phones and 512 MB RAM are really outdated. Development is active, however ROMs based on Jelly Bean and beyond have some non-functioning features and may be unstable at certain moments.

SIM lock can not be removed with the change of ROM. Depending on the manufacturing date, it can be done via paid method (produced before 12W11) or not at all (past 12W11).
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3493119:
1. You should keep it as Xperia Arc isn't worth much at all.

2. You can't flash kernels and such if you don't remove the simlock first. I suggest you to buy a simunlock + bootloader unlock at wotanserver.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abhinav1997:
I won't recommend you to keep it either. It's a 2011 phone and if you sell it you could get something better with greater support. Even ARC is having great ROMs but they won't function that good on a half a gb RAM phone ;) + Since sony ericsson broke a long time ago and you have a simlock therefore you won't even get a good official suport. So your best bet would be to sell it and buy something with greater support :)
