All credit for this exe goes to dottat, weaksauce and firewater to jcase. I'm just a guy who found out this works for downgrading.

Download 605.1 exe from here

http://xdaforums.com/droid-dna/general/official-exe-ruus-s-t2935556

Follow instructions from exe, plug in phone etc.

After it finishes you will be in 605.1 ota firmware and ready to s-off using firewater and weaksauce.

, from there, install twrp using fastboot

instructions for firewater/weaksauce :

[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
One case where I will be more than happy to be wrong too :)... You can still buy us a beer or some wine for jcase lol... just saying.

*edit- I just saw you post on twitter and suggest you change your tune. You wouldn't be rooted right now were it not for work we both spent time on to make it possible. Left to yourself you would be sitting unrooted. Show some gratitude instead of telling the very same people who helped you to get REKT.
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
are you referring to the one where i apologized to justincase?
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Yep...You edited your first tweet which was good. And apologized. Now this one seems silly..

Be glad this was switched to this before they lost the motivation to brick their own devices and waste countless hours trying to find an exploit that takes you minutes to enjoy for the lifetime of the phone.
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
lighten up, you dont need to lecture me
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
nope.. looks like two forum mods and one who is one of the guys responsible for the exploit already put you in your place.

huh, i feel like ive been in my place all along! we dont live in a communist society my place is wherever i want it to be. now relax
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Are you ready to place nice in the sandbox and show some gratitude towards those who contribute to your fun? The alternative is you work on your exploits and recovery methods?

Two things I don't detect/see in this thread are 1) an original guide and 2) contrite words.
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
I apologized to jcase, thats as contrite as ill get
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Thanks. You leave me wondering why in the hell I ever took the time to provide these to the community...
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
That's your prerogative :)
[HTC Droid DNA] mopartonyg:
Like he said in his tweet, you cant judge the whole community by 1 person. I thank you for all your hard work, and I am sure the other 99.9% appreciate all the devs hard work.
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
is it a guide now?
[HTC Droid DNA] Neo:
Enough

Enough.

I won't reitorate what has already been said off-site. OP apologized to Jcase. Congrats on finding an alternative method, you did what was suggested when you don't like how something is being done.

This thread however is not a guide and as such, can be treated as a general discussion and for the time being will have the title modified to reflect so.

Further discussion about "sticking it to the man" is over.

Yes this isn't a communist country but XDA is not a country. Your rights here are subject to the rules we outline to you and nothing more so show some respect.

That is all.

Most people here appreciate the work of jcase and beaups, unfortunately there are a few who don't treasure the developer's hard work. $25 is not much compared to the amount of doors they open when their work unlocks our phones. In the Sunshine thread there was someone who claimed they purposefully stopped weaksauce from working so the developers could get their $25 bucks via Sunshine. Despicable.

Anyway, I'm posting this because I just watched a presentation by jcase. In it he describes android vulnerabilities and a few times he mentioned the DNA. Finding exploits may be their hobby but they spend a bunch of time and effort on this and it has made my experience with the DNA awesome.

Doesn't work

I'm trying to downgrade from 605.5 to 605.1 and RUU doesn't work.

Gives me an 171 error and the log says it failed to verify for signatures.

Any thoughts?
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Did you use exe version?
[HTC Droid DNA] suckateverysport:
Yeah. EXE version.

On the surface it says USB connection error 171 but the log says 12 signature verify fail. So I guess i really doesn't have anything to do with the USB connection.
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Take the Rom.zip from the main zip and rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip

Place it on your sd card and let hboot load it.
[HTC Droid DNA] suckateverysport:
Tried it, the HBOOT doesn't even seek for the SDcard if it has RUU files or not.

Seems like other users just used your EXE RUU to flash back to 605. 1. I wonder why it doesn't work for me. I updated to 605.1 from the very first JB thinking I can S-OFF by downgrading to 605.1! (Tried dozens of S-OFF methods but nothing worked in JB. That's why I decided to go form JB -> 605.5 -> 605.1 to S-OFF. Now it seems impossible).
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Had a brain fart on the sd card thing. Been in m8 land all night. Wanna team viewer later?
[HTC Droid DNA] suckateverysport:
Wait, I formatted (No, not because of this. I had other issues.) and reinstalled everything hTC related back on and it worked!!!!!

droid dna bootloader unlocking

Old kindly help me in how to unlock my droid DNA bootloader unlock, thks
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
I think i know why it works at all, it installs an experimental firmware version of 605.1, so i wouldn't use it for anything other than s-off, and then i would recommend installing new radios etc, after installing twrp. Evidently when booting in red text it says this is an experimental firmware
[HTC Droid DNA] Azi9:
could you find the old exe versions of previous firmware to cut out the firewater dependency for people who need s off?
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Not experimental. Not at all. You get that because you flashed twrp.

You can't go below 4.x unless s-off. The only reason this one worked is because they used the same hboot and keys. They won't be able to downgrade far enough back to use rumrunner etc.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jtcva1:
Ah that makes sense. It's unfortunate that firewater was shut down, I've been lurking for many years here on xda and haven't really seen any project taken down by a bunch of people that cannot appreciate the hard work and effort from the devs. It's really a shame that this is what it came down to. Although I was trying to use firewater just to be cheap but I'll just run sunshine and pay the amount and consider it a donation in my mind. Also I wanted to say thank you for your RUU's, they worked wonderfully.

---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

Yeah I gave that a try but it still gave me the same thing. I'm just gonna use sunshine but thank you very much for the suggestion; it's much appreciated.
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
Thank you for the most understanding and gracious response I've seen to that bad news I've seen thus far.
[HTC Droid DNA] nono600:
***Warning, NOOB here***

So, if i'm understanding this thread correctly, the only way the achieve root and s-off on for the DNA(4.09.605.1), is to use Weaksauce 2 and Sunshine? May you tell me if i'm correct, or correct me if I'm wrong? (Sorry if this is the wrong thread, I've been unsuccessfully trying to s-off my new DNA all day and I just found this thread.)

Also, I would like to say thanks to any help I get in advance, because this has been so much more confusing than rooting my Fusion 2 which this replaced.
[HTC Droid DNA] dottat:
That's correct. After installing weaksauce you install supersu from the app store. Do NOT open or run supersu!!!

Reboot. Wait to see "device rooted" message after reboot. When you see it's successful install and run sunshine.
[LG G Watch R] mitchellvii:
I prefer to leave my watch face off until I look at it. The problem is that the accelerometer on this watch isn't always as sensitive as you might like (probably to prevent accidental activations). Unfortunately this means that if you have your wrist on the desk and then look at the watch, sometimes the face will not activate.

What I have found though is that if you give your wrist a slight rotational flick towards yourself as you raise your arm, the screen activates much more reliably.
[LG G Watch R] tilda:
Has anybody else noticed that the watch face does not light up when you raise the watch if it is in mute mode?

You can switch the screen on by pressing the button or touching the screen but raising your arm doesn't do it.
[LG G Watch R] bluedragon1982:
Thats why you can Mute the Device, i like this option (allways good when i bring the Baby to bed)
[LG G Watch R] tilda:
I agree - it is neat.

I had expected mute to stop alerts and cards popping up but hadn't realised that it would stop activation as described and when I first noticed it, I thought that my watch was faulty. Posting details here in case anyone else thinks the same!

:)
[LG G Watch R] zhix:
I have the exact same observations as well .. in fact, if the watch has been idle for some time,even with the slight rotational flick, I find that the screen will not be activated.
[LG G Watch R] tilda:
I found some custom watchfaces were *much* slower and often took two wrist-flicks to get the watch to wake up.

I found stock faces and also better 3rd party faces avoided that problem.

YMMV
[LG G Watch R] zhix:
Ahh .. i AM using Facer and Custom watchfaces ... perhaps the graphics are slowing down the watch ..
[LG G Watch R] tilda:
Keen to hear your findings - as it happened, I was using a Facer face but I suspect that it wasn't facer but the watch face itself.

How to Custom Ringtones and Notifications ? on Android 5.0 Lollipop :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frantisekmasa:
Simply create folder ringtones anywhere and put music files into it, OS will find those files. For notifications use folder notifications, for alarms alarms.

You may need to reboot your device.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ma678:
How can I assign a ringtone to a specific contact? lots of versions prior to 5.0 were able to do so. Did Google remove it from 5.0?:confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Go to the specific contact, touch the pencil icon on the top right. Then tap the three dots on the top right and select "Set ringtone." Make sure you hit all the check buttons on the way out and you have the ringtone set. Seems like an extra step or to compared to KK.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ma678:
I just realized there is another menu. It is not convenient at all.

Thanks for the trips.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daystrom:
Is there a specific file format or size limit for ringtones? I've tried copying mp3's to the ringtone folder of my wife's Nexus 5 and they don't show up under the ringtone menu.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
MP3 and OGG are the file formats I have. I generally have better luck getting them to work if I transfer from my laptop via USB than if I save them directly to the phone by downloading or using an OTG adapter.

I just discovered this: To easily reboot the Moto G, hold down the power button for 7-10 seconds. Works even when locked, no warnings, just BAM!

I happened across this on a help page for the first gen G, it works on the 2nd gen too.
[G 2014 General] xbs:
Isnt that a forced reboot?
[G 2014 General] vikasb32:
It is called hard reboot
[G 2014 General] rcoacci:
Don't do this unless the phone is unresponsive. It's the same as pressing reset on your computer. It can cause data loss and many problems.
[G 2014 General] agentaaron:
Thanks for sharing your findings, that's what makes forums great is people sharing what they have learned.

This feature has been around since Android 4.0 however (because the Nexus 4 does not have a battery which can be pulled)

As rcoacci stated though, I would not do this on a regular basis to reboot as it can lead to issues relating to data loss and corrupt files.

But tomorrow, i think its ready. THX for your help with ADB shell.
[Huawei Ascend P7] ctibor:
Hi,

does it mean that by using your tool I will be able to flash a new factory ROM (dload\Update.app format), even if I had put a TWRP recovery to my P7?

Without changing back the TWRP to stock recovery?
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Yes...no...;)

This tool makes what you make manuelly. Go back to stock, flash, and back to twrp. With backup and delete immutable after update.

Instructions are in this tool...you can easy try this...i hade to do this manuel.
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Are you checked that and be happy? I would like to create a tool that can use anybody and need ideas from you and other users :)
[Huawei Ascend P7] habbaz:
what about this:

[Huawei Ascend P7] habbaz:

but you can use the Google translator.
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Yes i do this but i cant open a exe file in my Android. Its a Russian exe file...iam safety ^^
[Huawei Ascend P7] luca3011:
Hi, did someone tested the tool? ( the first one) does it work? Because I want to install TWRP and I don't want to risk ?
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
If your bootloader is open, no Problem.

Put the twrp recovery .img in the recovery folder and choose flash recovery.

Only ADB and fastboot commands. If you have trouble - Plesse give me a info.
[Huawei Ascend P7] luca3011:
Does this program works alone? Do I need android SDK? Thank you for support!
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
On my first post you can see it.

Instructions:

1. Insert P7-Easy_Update_and_Adjust.exe into your ADB Folder.

2. If you want to flash a special recovery put the .img File into the "recovery" Folder.

3. Now you can start...

This tool needs ADB and fastboot.

Thank you so much!
[Huawei Ascend P7] palokm:

I always have, only this

I want this
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
What do you want to do? If you want the second your phone has to be in ADB mode.

You are in fastboot mode ...

ADB mode = phone complete bootet with USB debugging activated.
[Huawei Ascend P7] palokm:
I can not get into the ADB
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Can you explain me what are you doing?

Wich phone do you have - L10 or another?
[Huawei Ascend P7] palokm:
I'd like you to explain

but I do not know English

I use a translator

I have a L10

Do instructions
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Make this:

1. Open a cmd

2. Go to your ADB folder

3. Type: fastboot devices -L

And type ADB devices -L

I have to check how your device will be showed.

No Problem use the translator. My english is Bad to!
[Huawei Ascend P7] mr.overflow:
It doesnt work to me either. Stuck on 'Wait for Device...' on black screen

I'm on P7-L00 EMUI 3.0

If I ping the phone through adb devices it does show up

Thanks
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
I know...in New Version L00 are includet. I upload this at the evening.

Can you type ADB devices -L and show me the line of your device? I have included this but i dont know if it works. On p7-10 it shows me:

"model:HUAWEI_P7_L10"

If it shows on l00 the same, perfect!

(model:HUAWEI_P7_L00)

THX for your help!
[Huawei Ascend P7] mr.overflow:
mmmm

just tested it but it doesnt work.

after selecting option 3) the feedback line is: set_immutable.lst successfully deleted

but immutable is still there right away and after rebooting too.

Please be aware: I did not install Busybox (I wish to, but I never managed to do that) so if you are passing the commands through shell it will never work as it cannot execute chattr

Also, my system partition seems to be locked in a way akin to HTC S-ON - Whatever changes I execute, it will not survive the reboot.

I guess I should flash a custom recovery and install Busybox from boot, but I do not want to brick my brand new phone

:(
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Okay - i come from HTC to.

But on HTC i haved no problems with root etc.

But we are now on P7...

You must to be have root for busybox. Root you easy can have with genius or vroot (See forum).

I will try to implement a way without root and busy box. But in the moment i have no idea.

The message is a easy "echo" without errorlevel. I will do correct this for better output.
[Huawei Ascend P7] mr.overflow:
I do have root, and am on Chainfire SuperSU. I got the phone unrooted by the dropshipper I bought it from but they didnt do it through Rootgenius - I would be on Kingroot. I cannot unroot the phone, nor replace SuperSU

I will be glad to flash recovery, flash Busybox from boot and test your tool on my L00, but I need some advice on reverting my recovery to stock EMUI 2.3 first, as TWRP recovery cannot be flashed on stock 3.0

Or you may implement another option in the tool to downgrade EMUI ;)
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Why you can not change to another super su?

The L-00 is not my special area...

On my L-10 i can go to any super Su and it works. A way to downgrade EMUI ....hmmm....iam thinking about it.

Iam not on EMUI @ the moment but i try to built a way for you...
[Huawei Ascend P7] mr.overflow:
Weird isnt'it? If I try replacing SuperSU the phone will just ignore me. After rebooting every changes on the system partition vanishes, incl the ne SU manager. I tried re-rooting but I was unsuccessful.

Now I have 2 options: 1) revert to 2.3, don't ask me how, and install TWRP. 2) install CWM custom recovery from the link at the bottom of this post and settle for chinese recovery.

If you are not going to implement downgrading EMUI or installling CWM I guess you should include warning in your tool - if someone doesnt have busybox nevermind, but if someone flashes TWRP on 3.0...
[Huawei Ascend P7] moviehunter2009:
Ok i will test your tool...i have L00 and im on B606 Emui3.0.. I want with your tool to replace the recovery of my phone with a cwm so that i can flash SuperSu to root it...i was on 2.3with root but after i flashed B606 i lost it..

So my answer is..can your tool back up my recovery before i flash the cwm,so after root to replace it again?

I hope you understand my english and thanks for any help..
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
This tool makes simply ADB and fastboot commands.

If you know the command for backup recovery i can implement this.

L00 is not my special area! Iam form Germany and i have a L10. On my L10 - all commads that are included, works fine.

What is included? Please see first post. If you have ideas or questions, ask me in this thread ;)
[Huawei Ascend P7] moviehunter2009:
Thanks ....im searching a way for back up...i cant find nothing for our device in google..
[Huawei Ascend P7] 87insane:
Iam sorry...if you find a way. Tell it me! Than i can try to built a new Version. The user above you has the same problem.
