[Milestone 2 General] jcdestiny:
Good Afternoon guys... I update my M2 for CM 11 (android 4.4.2 Czechop 24.02.2014), this rom works fine, but this is consuming a lot of batery and the network 3G is very slow, in 5 minutes the use, this rom consumed 20% the batery... and the function daydream only works when inserted ind dockstation... even I selecting the option "both"... This is happened in the previous version too.

Sorry my english... this is not very good.

:o
[Milestone 2 General] neolovich:
I can't confirm this problem.

On my device it works fine. The only problem are the spontaneous reboots. I think it happens when the MS2 is "overloaded". Too much progresses running at the same time. For example: i make updates at the Play Store, then check my mails and after that i switch to WhatsApp, Threema, etc.

Apart from this i'm really glad about czechop, sharing his work to us.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] damnyouwaffles:
Okay guys so I got my S4 for Christmas as an upgrade from an S3. I love it. Its a beast and it is just amazing. Here's my problem, after a bunch of head scratching and reading, I finally found out how I was supposed to root it while running the latest jail cell of an update, MK2. The only thing I did to my phone is root it. No custom recovery or anything. Now that the android 4.4.2 update is coming soon, I really want to update to it, but obviously I can't just take the OTA when it comes out, so I need to go back to stock, no root, nothing, the thing is I have no idea how to safely do it and I have very bad dyslexia so keeping track of all the threads that tell me what to do is impossible for me. Can someone please give me a simple step by step on how to do go back to stock? And where I can get the firmware from?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 65vdub:
My recommendation would be to search the Samsung website for an MK2 Odin.tar stock firmware image for your s4. If you can't find it there then I recommend looking on XDA for a no data wipe MK2 image. Once the OTA hits for 4.4.2 touchwiz KitKat I recommend you wait for the devs to find a root exploit for it. Or if you don't mind spending a few bucks you could buy super su pro and enable root survival mode and it keeps root over an ota. But I'll see if I can link you to a non data wipe stock MK2 image.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2578209

Here are the stock MK2 images just in case. There are full data wipes and no data wipes available. Hope I was able to help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Please understand that currently there is no way to root KitKat on bootloader locked devices.

Yes, you can restore a no-wipe MK2 ROM and return to stock, then take the 4.4 update when it's rolled out, but you may be stuck on stock for good if you do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
k1mu, we will be repeating this countless times when the OTA happens

Ivan R 4.21 is Def. best rom out there at the moment in terms of speed! After flashing and tweaking my qtek i did a backup with SPB. Unfortunately I tried to do a restore and when rebooting the device is stuck in the boot screen ( 4 colored stripe) Any Ideas, has this happened to any1?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ralpheboyo:
sprite 5.1

sprite 5.1 does the trick. backup works and able to restore without hanging in boot screen (4 coloured stripe). Lots of error messages which i have to have a look at but its a step in the right direction
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Hello everyone. I just sold my Moto X so I will no longer be updating this toolkit. I will try and help anyone with questions/problems when needed.

Back by popular demand...

I have had some people asking for links for my previously deleted toolkit.

So I have decided to revamp the toolkit for dev edition devices only. (Currently only supporting GSM dev (AT&T and T-Mobile) and VZW Dev)

With this toolkit you will be able to the following...

1) Root your device (unlock bootloader, install TWRP, install superSU)

2) Unroot your device

3) Return to stock

4) Debloat (google, moto, vzw stuff)

5) Activate mobile hotspot (VZW only)

6) reboot (recovery, bootloader, device)

7) Customize (bootanimation, bootlogo, ringtones, notifications)

How to use

1) Click download below

2) Extract zip file

3) Turn you phone on

4) Make sure USB debugging is enabled

5) Plug your phone into the computer.

6) Run moto_x_mac_tools.tool

7) FOLLOW ONSCREEN INSTRUCTIONS

Screenshots

See attachments...

Download

Moto X Toolkit v2.03

Change Log

v2.01 - Fixed some bugs with restoring back to stock, removed ReadWrite status (with dev edition this status is not needed)

v2.02 - Added downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.4

- When returning to stock, or downgrading, USER DATA will be erased (no longer an option)

- There are only 2 variants of the dev edition so I changed to Verizon and GSM

v2.03 - Updated to latest supersu and TWRP

Please do not redistribute/mirror this toolkit. If you would like to link it in any other thread, please include a link back to this thread, give proper credit.

As with anything you will find on XDA, I am not responsible for anything that occurs to your phone or computer by using this toolkit.

[Moto X Android Development] iamjackspost:
Awesome, I used your old toolkit to flash stock recovery (so I could take the ota) and then back to TWRP. It was so easy! I'm sure others will appreciate this as well.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Toolkit is ready for download!!
[Moto X Android Development] moonzilla:
unlock with moto first?

Do I need to unlock my bootloader with Motorola before using the toolkit? I do have a VZW Dev device, but wanted to confirm.
[Moto X Android Development] daddyshatch:
This utility is amazing and a must for anyone with a Mac! Thanks x100!
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
You can either unlock before using the toolkit. Or you can use the toolkit to guide you through the unlock. If you go to root device. The 1st question is if you are unlocked or not. If not, it will guide you through the process of unlocking the bootloader (semi-automatic). Let me know if you have any questions.

[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Thank you for re-posting this tool.

I am trying to go back to stock 4.4 to get the OTA (I have a Dev Ed VZN Moto X). I followed the on screen directions and downloaded the VZN 4.4 file (640 MB file). Then the phone reboots to bootloader (ReadWriteMode is 0). I press ENTER since the device has booted into FB mode and it says USB connected, the ReadWriteMode reads error: device not found (I did not unplug the phone from the computer).

Is there a fix for it? The same thing happens when I try to download 4.4.2.

Thanks
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
When in fastboot mode. The readwrite will say device not found. An ADB command is used to check the readwrite status. And ADB commands do not function while in fastboot mode.

You are ok to continue.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Thanks.

I pressed enter to continue but my phone just reboots and restore does not work.

But when I tried to flash the stock recovery, readwrite says 0 and works like a charm. The problem only occurs when I try to restore the device.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I will test on my device. I will let you know what I find out.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Thank you!!
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I found a typo in the script. I am trying it now. Should see a new download shortly. Thanks for pointing this out.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Not a problem. Again, thank you for making a great tool! I will test out the new version and report if there are any problems. Let me know when the new one is up.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
v2.01 is ready for download.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
It worked. I was able to upgrade to 4.2.2. Thank you so much. One thing though, the color on the screen is off. So far it looks like the color red is off. This might be my device only. I am going to flash 4.2.2. again and see if it happens again.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I just did the factory restore to 4.4.2 and all of my colors are ok.

Make sure you erase user data when it asks you. But this will erase everything.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
I did the factory restore again to 4.2.2 but I still have the same issue. I think something is wrong with my display. I think I need to call vzn and have them send me another unit.

---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------

Should i downgrade to 4.4? Or is it a bad idea?
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Here is what I would do...

Just install TWRP and install Eclipse 3.2.1. This is the ROM that I use. It is great!! See if that fixes your color issue. If it does not. They I would say your device is f-ed up.

http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/development/rom-eclipse-moto-x-blur-based-v2-2-t2521509
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
I tried flossing Eclipse 3.2.1 and the color was still off. My camera is not working as well. Maybe I will lock up the boot loader and restore it to 4.2.2 again. But your tool works great.

Currently on the phone with Motorola...

I should not downgrade to 4.4, right?
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I am not sure if you can downgrade or not with a dev edition. I have never tried. I know some people that have a consumer VZW (locked bootloader) cannot downgrade.
[Moto X Android Development] jakkzen:
Thanks for bringing this back. It works great.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
I am too scared to downgrade. But this might be my only option. When you flashed Eclipse 3.2+, did you wipe data/cache and system (the Eclipse dev says not to wipe system)?
[Moto X Android Development] hartford:
I hate to sound ignorant, but I just bought a used developers edition Moto X off of EBay and I am awaiting its arrival. Its not one of the carriers developer edition...its the one directly from Moto, with black front / white back...no carrier branding at all. Will this tool work with it?
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
In TWRP, select wipe and then swipe to do a factory reset. Do not wipe the system.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
There are only 2 variants of the dev edition. GSM and verizon. I believe the GSM only works on T-mobile and AT&T, but I could be wrong.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
I will try this one more time. This is frustrating. I might have to borrow a PC from my friend to use RSD lite or other PC tools.

I called VZN yesterday and they told me that I have to deal with Motorola directly since it is a Dev Edition phone. I called Motorola and they told me to ship the phone to them and if they can fix it they will send it back, if not I will get a new device. But the whole process takes about a week and I would be phone less during that time since I don't have another VZN phone.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I feel for ya.

I think you need to try to flash 4.4.2 again and make sure you delete user data when the toolkit asks you to. This will delete everything on your phone. SDCARD included.

I am playing around with downgrading my phone now. To see what happens. If it works I am going to update the toolkit to allow for downgrading.

But it sounds to me that you device has a problem.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Just restored to 4.4.2 again and no luck. I think it is a device problem. If you find a way to downgrading to 4.4 it would be great. I want to see if the downgrade would solve the problem.

Thanks for all the help!
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
I just successfully downgraded to 4.4. A new download will be available shortly.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
You are amazing. I will wait till it uploads.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
It's available. But I am still thinking you have something wrong with the device.

I downgraded using my toolkit and then just used the toolkit to upgrade back to 4.4.2 with no problems.

Then just restored all of my crap and reloaded Eclipse.

No problems at all.
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
Downgrading worked flawlessly. The color is back. I am going to try to take the OTA on my phone and see what will happen. I will keep you posted.

Thank you for saving my device!

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

Took the OTA to 4.4.2. Its all back to normal now!

Thanks for the help again!
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Good to hear!!! I wonder what happened the first time? Did you go from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 originally with the toolkit?
[Moto X Android Development] wmjchoi:
I went from 4.4 to 4.4.2 using the toolkit. I have no idea what happened. But I just flashed Eclipse 3.2.1 and loving it! This toolkit is a must have for any Mac OS users.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Thank you!! Yeah, Nitro makes some good stuff!!
[Moto X Android Development] PILLMUZIK3600:
Will this work with my droid maxx dev edition?
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Sorry, but I have no clue.
[Moto X Android Development] HeroOfTime:
I just unlocked my Moto Maker VZW Moto X using that third party deal that's been going on in a separate threat. Thanks for making this toolkit. Mac users are typically SOL with this stuff, so it's very appreciated. I am going to try to use it to flash TWRP this afternoon, but just wanted to thank you in advance.

One question, if I want to flash TWRP 2.7, can I just rename the .img to twrp.img like it's named in the Recovery folder and replace the one in the folder with the newer one? I assume that will work. I've been out of the rooting/recovery scene since I got my Moto X, so I'm getting a little rusty.

Cheers.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
Yes. Just rename the new one.
[Moto X Android Development] HeroOfTime:
Great, thanks!
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:

Is this toolkit usable on any version if android on the moto x? Is there something specific I need to be aware of?

Thanks!

[Moto X Android Development] bkjolly:
Curious as to why someone would need a toolkit to unlock any developer edition or unlockable device. I think people would be better served with you posting the very simple steps of unlocking vs a toolkit.
[Moto X Android Development] motoxone:
Amazing. Thank you!!! :laugh:
[Moto X Android Development] DxTania:
Hi, I like this toolkit. Mostly. One question really, how do I prevent it from redownloading the firmware every time? I downloaded it, then it stopped working so I restarted the toolkit. It deleted it and tried to download again. Except I have no internet on my computer anymore....any help would be awesome for the next time I can finally download the firmware
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
It is just the way the toolkit works. I wrote it that way so that the latest firmware and non corrupt firmware would be flashed.

I am no longer supporting this though, since I no longer have the moto x.
[Moto X Android Development] DxTania:
Oh I see. Thanks for the quick response. Wish I had internet =/
[Moto X Android Development] akaashprasad:
If I'm rooted on 4.4.2, can I use this toolkit to flash stock recovery, then update to 4.4.4 OTA, then reuse the toolkit to re-flash twrp? Sorry for the noob question.

P.S. This is the toolkit I first used to root my device.
[Moto X Android Development] mjphillips1981:
You should be able to.

Please download the latest version. I just updated it to the latest supersu and twrp.

I cannot test it as I do not have the Moto X any more, but everything should be fine.

Thanks.
[Moto X Android Development] akaashprasad:
Great! Thanks! I'll test it out later today and get back to you.
[Moto X Android Development] LSUtigers03:
My dev moto x is unlocked but I can't get twrp to work. The files download and the toolkit tells me to hit volume down then volume up to select recovery but twrp doesn't start. All it says it no command.

EDIT: I got it working.
[Moto X Android Development] msgreenf:
how do you flash back to stock recovery? I dont see that as an option?
[Moto X Android Development] akaashprasad:
It's there. It's contained in the second option on the main menu.

---------- Post added at 02:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

Just wanted to report back. Everything worked great! I flashed stock recovery, installed the OTA update, and then re-installed the TWRP recovery. I retained root as well. Thank you!
[Moto X Android Development] Christopher Price:
Everything worked for me... until I hit the enable mobile hotspot option.

The phone boots - clears bootanimation... and then? Black screen of death.

On Verizon. Hmm. Possible Verizon has a kernel level check now - anyone else on VZW tested hotspot enable? Restoring from scratch to double check.
[Moto X Android Development] Christopher Price:
Yeah, Verizon has gotten wise to this workflow. Everything rooting goes fine until you enable hotspot - then bricks after bootanimation.

Attempts to work around that in recovery just resulted in hanging at bootloader. I suspect Verizon now has a kernel level check that they're handing out to manufacturers for baking in. I'll flash one more time and try a couple of Xposed workarounds... if that fails, back to 4.4.2 for tonight.

At least it's recoverable from...
[Moto X Android Development] Christopher Price:
Have a fix - Do all the steps in this tool, including root. But, do not use the hotspot enable option.

Instead download Xposed Framework and X Tether, install and enable both. Then you're good to go on 4.4.4.

Recommend author edit the enable hotspot option to alert the user that the workflow is no longer supported and to use Xposed and X Tether instead - since the rest of the tool worked perfectly.
[Moto X Android Development] poena:
tried the flash stock recovery. looks like it completed and then now when I try to go to recover i get red exclamation with "No Command."
[Moto X Android Development] Christopher Price:
I believe that is the stock recovery. From my experience, flashing stock recovery isn't enough on 4.4.2. I had to do a device backup (APKs and sdcard), then a full stock recovery to 4.4.2.

I then let the two firmware updates to run that left me at 4.4.4. Finally, I re-ran this tool (v2.03) to deploy TWRP and root. Then I installed Xposed and X Tether.

Finally, I restored my APKs and sdcard. Should take an hour or so if you do that route.
[Moto X Android Development] akaashprasad:
Yup this is exactly what I did.
[Moto X Android Development] zoid_99:
Well crap... I just did the same thing. How do I recover from this. how do I restore 4.4.4 from scratch?

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

I reflashed the system.img partition from the 4.4.4 distro and now all is good again. Whew...
[Moto X Android Development] Christopher Price:
Once you start over and it sounds like you're at 4.4.4, just skip the hotspot step in the kit - instead install Xposed and X Tether. Done.
[Moto X Android Development] drdeathly:
working with new 4.4.4 Moto X Dev Ed?

I just got that $200 deal for the 2013 Moto X VZW Dev Edition on Amazon. My phone came with 4.4.4. Will this toolkit still work to get root, etc? I just want to be sure I don't brick my beloved new phone. Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] the_pirate_predator:
Hello World!!

Lost the connectivity when syncing a repo source and had to redownload the entire source again?

Not needed anymore!

Well, many of the developers face this problem!

I am here to provide a solution which I found out myself in my experience that you can actually pause the syncing for a while and continue working on it later.

You can also correct the errors that occured during syncing!!

So now lets get our hands dirty. Its a very simple trick.

If you want to pause the repo sync for a while and resume it later time of the day, press "CTRL + Z" and to resume the sync, type "fg" and press enter.

If you want to switch off computer and do the sync tomorrow,

Press "CTRL + Z" and Switch off computer. Then tomorrow or the day you start working, open terminal and change directories to that place where you started syncing and type "repo sync". You need not initialize it again as it has already been done when you have started the sync.

Or if you want to solve the errors in the source that you have just downloaded,

Open terminal and change directories to that place where you started syncing and type "repo sync -f".

These things are also published on xda but as a comment. To make it easier for developers, I am giving this as a trick. Everything is tested by myself.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] peymayesh:
Thank you for this sharing,

But I have a problem,

I live in IRAN and "GitHub" denies giving service to my country,

therefore I have to use a proxy. But the problem is VPN and Proxies can not cover git,

so I used https://github.com/... instead of git://github.com/..., repo syncs on this situation,

but it doesn't do it properly and can't parse packages due to manifests,

I mean all of source remain in ".repo" folder.

Is there any other way to download the source?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nihar:
cool bro!!!!

thank you very much for sharing that!

Awesome.. btw does using http instead of git:// wont cause any problem right?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rrajesh011:
i have a doubt--> got error that is "Exited sync due to fetch errors". if i do repo sync -f again then syncing will start from 0 or where its left.

I have a USB-Slot in my car, over which the car stereo can play the music from an usb-device. Since the newer androids doesnt seem to use the "old" usb mass storage protocol but mtp, the car stereo doesnt work with my HTC One. I've tried with ARHD, but it doesnt work.
