Hello, does someone have the flashable firmware via RSD lite for Droid Maxx, but developer edition ? I Wanna try to flash it on a Verizon one. I could find only Verizon firmwares for Droid ultra, mini or maxx...

Thanks !
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenryan:
Firmware is identical between verizon and Dev edition, as is the hardware. Only difference is ability to get unlock code from moto, and warranty staying in effect after you messed with the software.

Flash away, you have the right files. If you need help, search for posts from nwkent, he has some excellent guides.

Just to clarify, you have a Dev edition and are looking for the images?

If you are thinking you would flash firmware and convert a consumer edition to a "Dev edition" that way, sorry it doesn't work like that. You already have the equivalent of a Dev edition in your hand, the difference is on Moto's end.

yesterday, i tried to call Verizon, ask them about unlock bootloader. But they seem didnt understand what i said. My english's very bad. :p. la la la
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenryan:
No, I'm sure it wasn't your English. :)

Many people have tried to talk Verizon out of the unlock codes. Nobody has succeeded. It is simply not in Verizon's interest to let you use your phone the way you want to. They make the most money from you using your phone the way *they* want you to.

Sorry there isn't really a solution for you. Some 2014-model phones may still be unlockable by sending money to a mystery Chinese guy who appears to have stolen a hunk of Motorola's device database, but they no longer have codes for the 2013 versions. There is also a slim possibility that the Sunshine app (available elsewhere on xda) may be able to do it - download and install it, it's free to try and won't hurt anything if it can't unlock it.

Good luck!

tks fro your info. But i read that thread, sunhisne from jcase. I saw it take 25$/ 1 device to unlock? Not free.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenryan:
Free to try and see if it will work. Not free to actually do the unlock. Sorry I wasn't clear.

It runs some tests, and only asks for payment if it is sure it will succeed.

$25 is chump change for the amount of work those guys put into opening the phone, and the number of handsets they kill in the process.

Firmware for Droid Razr Maxx

I also am having trouble with the download site. Does anyone have the firmware for the Droid Razr Maxx XT912?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morr22066:
Firmware downloads for Droid Ultra / Maxx

You can request firmware directly from Motorola. Here is a copy of the e-mail that they sent me along with the link to request the firmware download, it only takes about 24 hours for them to respond to the request.

This link will give you access to the software you requested. To re-lock an unlocked Motorola

device, you must first re-load the original Motorola device software image. Download the image we’ve shared with you here to a computer, and using the Android SDK, follow the instructions on this page to flash and re-lock your device:

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images

Also, you can download the firmware from the "Rootjunky" website, they also have a lot of video's and instructions on how to root, flash, unbrick, etc.

http://www.rootjunky.com/motorola/motorola-droid-ultra/

And there is also this site where you can get firmware

Droid Maxx back to stock issues

Hi,

I have:

VZW_21.11.21.obake_verizon.Verizon.en.US.tgz

Which was provided by Motorola. As there isn't an XML file in the tarball I followed the instructions here:

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images

But am running into issues. Currently the phone just sits on the Bootloader unlocked warning screen when trying to boot normally. I can get it into fastboot at will.

When flashing gpt, and motoboot I get the following errors:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

prompts an error on the phone:

downgraded security version

update gpt_main version failed

preflash validation failed for GPT

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

prompts a similar error:

downgraded security version

update rpm version failed

System seems to flash ok although I do get:

fastboot flash system system.img

target reported max download size of 805306368 bytes

Invalid sparse file format at header magi

Sparse-Flash is enabled!

sending sparse 'system' (786335 KB)...

OKAY [ 27.606s]

writing 'system'...

OKAY [ 16.931s]

finished. total time: 132.224s

but it seems like it copied over fine.

Booting into recovery eventually gets me to a screen with the 'droid on its ass and a big ole exclamation point.

This phone has only ever run stock firmware, and OTAs. Was never rooted, never flashed like this. I'm at a bit of a loss. I've posted on the Moto Dev board but posting here as well hoping someone might take pity and help me out. I was looking to relock the bootloader before I gave the phone to my gf. Should have just left it alone :(.

I'm using a Mac, and using the fastboot binary included in the tarball. I have tried on windows using the supplied exe but the errors and end result are the same.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stanleywinthrop:
Question, please. I have run into trouble using this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb0jKB8OFko

My device: Droid Maxx

Bootloader locked, not rooted

4.4.4 at the start of the process

I downloaded the suggested firmware and ran into problems.

The first time I attempted it RSD appeared to flash everything except system.img which got hung up and the bootloader gave me a message in red stating: "no valid piv block in sp for system" This occured with the 1FF-obake-maxx_verizon-user-4.4.4-SU6-7.2-release-keys.xml.zip 1.0.0 software.

Figuring I had the incorrect firmware i tried two other roms: 1. CFC-obake-maxx_verizon-user-4.4.4-SU6-7.2-release-keys.xml.zip 1.0.0 and 2. 1FF-obake-maxx_verizon-user-4.4.4-SU6-7-release-keys.xml.zip 1.0.0. Both failed with a different error message. This time RSD and the bootloader told me "preflash validation failed for gpt".

I have tried this with RSD 6.1.5 and 6.2.4

My suspicion is that I don't have the correct firmware, but I could be wrong.

The bad news is that the phone will not boot into recovery or normally. The good news is that the phone WILL enter bootloader mode and RSD WILL recognize it.

Anyways any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm thinking of ditching Outlook in favor of Google Apps hosted solutions. Syncing my calender seems possible with either OggSync or GCalSync (side note: can anybody give me any personal experiences using either of those apps?) Mail seems doable via POP3 or Google's java GMail app (though if anybody knows of a better way, feel free to tell me.) The missing piece, then, is syncing my contacts.

I'm looking for something that can, via ActiveSync or possibly over-the-air, sync my contacts easily, without the need of Outlook as an intermediary. ScheduleWorld may do this, but their site is so sparse on information that I'm not sure. GCalDaemon seems to be able to sync contacts with Outlook, among other things, but I'd rather avoid Outlook if possible.

So, anybody know of an easy way to do this? Or simply have any experiences replacing Outlook with Google Apps, in terms of Windows Mobile use?

I'm using a Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard) on Cingular's (now AT&T's) GSM network, running with the default ROM, version 2.25.11.1, which is WM5. I have an unlimited data plan, if that makes a difference.

[Asus ZenWatch] kellybrf:
your watch settings mirror the phone settings. if the notification doesn't vibrate on your phone it won't on the watch either. the vibration has to be the app's settings too, if you use a third party app like lightflow to add a vibration when the app doesn't offer one it doesn't translate to the watch

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 51D7H3K1D:
Hey! I'm new to the Note 3 community. I bought it recently after getting fed up with the battery life on my Nexus 5. I bought it from Swappa with stock rooted 4.4.2. I did lots of flashing and modding on my Nexus and I had an old Samsung (DROID Charge) as my first phone so I've used ODIN a little but I haven't done any rooting/ROMing on my Note yet.

I'm excited to put Lollipop on my phone but I love WiFi calling so I've been waiting for the Official update. What is the process like to get me from stock rooted KK to stock rooted Lollipop? Should I wait for a stock rooted ROM to be posted so I can flash it? Or should I unroot then update OTA then reroot? Is it better to do a factory reset? As much detail as possible for a Samsung noob would be very appreciated! Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Grab a soda, maybe a snack, and have a seat. It can be anywhere from a few hours to a few days...to even a few weeks for someone to gain full root to Lollipop.

Just keep checking back to see when someone has it rooted. In the mean time, enjoy rooted KK and try out some of the ROMs. I'm part of the Tweaked family but some of the other ROMs are very good as well.

Lastly, WELCOME TO THE NOTE 3 COMMUNITY!!

Hello XDA!

Today I would like to share with you my first game. It is called bloq and it is free for download on the Google Play Store. The game currently has a 4.7 star rating, so clearly most users have enjoyed playing it, and I am confident that you will as well.

Bloq is a minimalistic block sliding puzzler, best described as a combination of 2048/Threes and mini-golf. Your goal is to slide your blocks across the screen into their respective color targets. If you've ever played the old Pokemon games on Gameboy, you'll easily see that gameplay is reminiscent of the ice caves, where you slide along the icy ground until you bump into a rock before you can change direction. But I think the best way is really for you to see for yourself:

Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VR4ohJrwQu4

Gameplay gifs:

https://gfycat.com/HoarseShyAmericancurl

https://gfycat.com/WelloffJaggedAcornbarnacle

https://gfycat.com/DimSpottedGull

While it may seem simple at first, do not be fooled; this is a lot more complex than the Pokemon ice caves. As the levels progress, I introduce multiple colors, special blocks, and also levels that wrap around the screen. Some of the simplest levels looking levels often end up being the most challenging.

The game is available for free to download, and the first 15 levels are free to play. After that, you are given the option to continue with ads or pay $0.99 to unlock the rest of the levels, so you can play the entire game for free if you'd like. There are 40 levels in total, some of which are easy educational levels, and others which are incredibly difficult and will have you scratching your head for hours.

I hope you will take the time to play my game and share with your friends. I think they would really enjoy it, and I hope you will too. I would be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. Please feel free to reply to this thread!

Thank you.
