The person I chatted with initiated the roll back right away. He let me know the terms of the roll back. Asked me if I accept not receiving anymore updates beyond what I'm rolled back to. I told home I agreed and he sent me the update right away.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] p1gl3t:
That should be the simplest method as long as editing build.prop doesn't screw up other things.

Another option would be to MITM the connection to the update server. To do this you would also need to install the proxy certificate on the device.

THANKS! :confused::fingers-crossed: I am getting rollback now. Stepping carefully, real newbie. I have been reading and learning . Still may need help down the road.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] jimyv:
good

just one word of advice as far as right now they have not figured out how to downgrade from. .7 to .4 so you can have a true recovery. so essentially all you can get is root and safestrap...do not even attempt to roll back any further you will junk your device.

I'm on the stock ROM with CWM recovery but I am only rooted for adblock, if I restore the host files, unroot and flash stock recovery will the OTA work?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SweatyYeti:
Alright guys so here is the whole story with how I "Soft bricked my GS3 I535 Verizon version 4.4.2

I rooted my phone with the application "Kingo Root". It worked flawlessly my phone was rooted and i was able to install SuperSU and rootchecker and a whole bunch of other great root only apps. After I realized how great rooting was I decided I wanted to change my ROM to cyanogen since that what most people seem to prefer for a rooted phone. I downloaded an earlier version of EZ UNLOCK app to unlock the bootloader to that I could access the bootloader to flash a new ROM. After I used the EZ UNLOCK and turned off my phone to get into the recovery IT WAS HARD BRICKED :(. Luckily though I found this thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581166 Which worked like a charm and had my device up and running again but was dependent on the new Ext SD card to boot up. When I got to the step where I was supposed to recover the Stock bootloader onto the device it seemed to work. I input the code in the Terminal that the instructions said to do with the debrick.bin file. (My file was actually a debrick.img disck image file) But I didnt think it mattered too much. After inputing the code and waiting for it to finish the process I tried to reboot to see if it would boot off of internal memory. Now it is stuck in a boot up loop AKA soft bricked i supppose. I cannot get into recovery as it is locked because of verizon stuff still.

At this point I have backups of everything I REALLY want to keep so If I can get to factory defaults even, that would absolutely fine.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

I apologize for the lengthy story but I feel the more info i give the easier it is for you to help.

I've tried to patch original recovery to avoid signature checks.

As a base image, I've used recovery provided from [MENTION=5429992]Gundabolu SC[/MENTION] from this topic

http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/general/custom-recovery-moto-maxx-t2946950

The "method" used to patch was pretty primitive since

I'm not an android developer

:

What I did basically was downloading a original Moto X 2014 recovery.img and a patched Moto X 2014 recovery.img.

Then I compared both and figured out that their /sbin/recovery were only 6 bytes different.

Then I looked into maxx recovery and that line was pretty similar to moto X, so I changed those 6 bytes to 6 bytes of zeroes like the patched moto x recovery.

After editing I repacked everything together into a new .img file using android img kitchen from this topic

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2073775

I HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS IS GONNA WORK

Test on your own risk

My bootloader is still locked so I can't test.

What I would do to test is booting (

not flashing

) this image and trying to sideload a zip file, super su for example to get root.

I tried it too it did'nt let me flash the SU-Beta zip but, it did let me flash this "datroot.zip" that i got from the LG forum....

Attaching it here anyone is free to check, not sure it will work for all! It worked for me...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] respider:
so you got root successfully?

I believe you should try the regular supersu, not the beta. I believe the beta is intended for lollipop

Yup I got root! :) At work now... Will check with other version of SU later! :)

someone should compare supersu and datroot update-script to see what they do differently... but glad datroot works. It's a progress.

I'd like to test this! So did you flash the custom recovery in rsdlite? [MENTION=1220096]respider[/MENTION] [MENTION=5429992]Gundabolu SC[/MENTION]
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] respider:
no, I do not recommend flashing anything

you first need to unlock your bootloader and after you boot the recovery without flashing, with fastboot

fastboot boot recoveryfile.img
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PureErykness:
Ohh okay much easier than I thought... But yeah that boot loader. Thanks anyways. I'm watching y'alls progress with interest
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ccheww:
Does any of this pertain to good news for the turbo?

Sent from my XT1254
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] alexcreto:
Very unlikely. Without the unlocked bootloader, there ain't much to be done...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] prking07:
But it thought that to boot not flash a recovery with adb an unlocked bootloader wasnt needed. At least thats what i thought and sime other devices are capable of achieving this.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] alexcreto:
Some devices dont need unlocked bootloaders. TRUE. As matter of fact, MOST of them don't. However, to achieve root without unlocked bootloaders, some developer has to exploit a security breach to install the binaries.

There are plenty of security breaches to exploit, but no developer working on the Turbo.

When you've got the bootloaders, well, it's just plain easy...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Al936:
I would recommend to try with locked bootloader and see. Not to flash, but fastboot boot "modified-recovery.img". If it boots, you are almost in good situation.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] _tek_:
The modified recovery will not boot for me on the Turbo with a locked boot loader. I got really excited for a moment! :(
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] respider:
anyone with unlocked bootloader willing to test just if this recovery boots?

please if it boots successfully please dont attempt anything from inside, it's just to check if it boots

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Gundabolu SC:
That's all right! Take your time... We have root for now... And once we have a custom recovery let's spend some time on Custom ROMs based on STOCK as well as let's try a hand at Source based ROMs... I can manage to make a decent stock ROM by debloating stuff n adding tweaks.... But I really don't know how to build from source, have tried but due to low internet speeds and lack of super noob friendly guides, never tried.... Anyways let's keep this forum as alive as possible... Cuz its basically dead! :'(
