hi, my phone is being MaximusHD rom with hboot 2.15,S-on, not SuperCid,numcid T-mob101

i can not soff,supercid,so a can not back Ruu Ship

please help me
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
Maximus HD does NOT work with your system configuration. So I suppose your phone doesn't boot. You first need to flash a HBoot 2.15 compatible Sense rom to get S-OFF, then you can flash all prerequisites to use Maximus HD.

What better forum to get advice about the hermes and its clones than xda so here goes.

I currently have VZ and under contract until july 31. I have a friend that can get me a new htc tytn for about 630. I don't plan on canceling my contract with VZ because of the $175 ETF. I'll just get a cingular number and transfer my old number around the time my vz contract ends. Here is the question. Actually I have a couple of questions.

1. When do you think the kaiser will be available in the US? or a better question would be when can someone in the US get their hands on a kaiser?

2. Should I go ahead and get the TYTN or save about 200-300 by getting an 8525?

3. Since my VZ contract isnt up till July, should I just wait until then to get a TYTN, 8525, or possibly a kaiser (if its out. see #1)?

4. Anyone know the street price on a kaiser? Is it worth it over what the tytn offers?

I guess I need to make a decision within a week. Too many unknowns at this point, and it would be harder for me to get the answers by myself. Thats why I am asking here.

Thanks.

:confused:

There was some talk about it a little while back, check out this thread. Might give you some more info on it.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hfam95:
That thread did not help. Thanks though. I could also buy one and then sell it when the kaiser comes out. You think there will be a market to buy a tytn even though the kaiser will be out?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hfam95:
any updates? Thanks guys
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
For those who haven't been watching the Bounty thread, it's been confirmed that the Turbo has indeed been rooted by maiko1, see here and here for proof in videos. Also, jcase has confirmed that it is legit here.

I'll keep this thread up to date as more info becomes available, but it seems like the wait could finally be over! Can't say anything yet as to if or when the method will be released, but this is definitely great news!

Edit 3/13: jcase has stated that sunshine will not work on the Turbo even when root is released.. Yet. We can hope, but as of right now the bootloader will remain locked.

Edit 3/17: multiple developers have stated that *IF* the turbo gets a BL unlock, they will work on porting Cyanogenmod to it.

Edit 3/18: maiko1 has indicated that "final stages of testing have begun" for the root method.

Edit 3/25: the root method is supposedly going to be out later today! See here where it is confirmed last night for a release today.

EDIT 3/25: ROOT IS LIVE! Get it while it's hot!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windatmyback:
Sweet, this is good news. Don't have a Turbo but this may be the deciding factor.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mikera67:
Wow, made my night. But I'll take the wait and see approach for now, video's look good and remarks from trusted members, call me doubting Thomas but I'll wait to really dance around when the instructions and files are available. Ok,I lied I'm dancing now!!!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] therapist1:
This is incredible! Can we get a detailed guide on what to do?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
As of right now the root method hasn't been made public.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PILLMUZIK3600:
Once we get root. Sunshine should work I hope?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] nozzleman_85:
I still don't think its 100% legit. It's gonna take more than two videos to convince me. The ONLY reason I'm even considering that its real is because jcase is backing it...﻿
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PILLMUZIK3600:
Jcase has never let me down
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] nozzleman_85:
He hasn't let me down either.. I've used his work and praise his work..like I said..he's the only reason why there's any truth behind this..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] rajuabju:
If jcase says its real, its real. there is no higher authority on these things than him.

Omg I can't believe it's happening

Holy ****. Almost every night I check this forum with fingers crossed hoping to see this thread. Definitely not updating until new information is posted
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] yvmexcl:

Root Droid Turbo

Will the method be in this thread or a new one when it is released?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jimlightner:
[MENTION=2817004]magneto417x[/MENTION]....No,it'll probably end up in droid turbo android development,or droid turbo ORIGINAL android development...ether way you'll know..lol..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] wifnhzivxllo:
Hopefully root will lead to bootloader unlock. Which will almost certainly mean lollipop with root (given enough time for devs to make some roms).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
I'll keep this thread up to date as more information comes in, if there's a post releasing the method I'll link to it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] magneto417x:
Thanks so much :)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ahaynes42:
Now that is an extremely difficult thing to ponder. I've been wanting Lollipop on this phone really bad, but with root I could actually figure out what's keeping my phone awake and do Titanium backups! Aaaah, I'll probably choose root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] golgothagecko:
Why post the root video if he's not going to post the process to root the phone? I'm dying over here.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] X_man.:
On the 12th of last week he said it was real and they will be releasing it soon. Who knows what soon is. But it hasn't even been a week yet. Its killing me too. But all we can do is wait and see.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] timmyk465:
Same thoughts exactly. He also mentioned that it was going to be released soon in one of the posts, so I am sure it is coming. But there is still a little part of me that screams on the inside every time I try to order a new turbo at full retail. Then there's this other part of me that keeps saying do it... do it...

:I think that's the part that made me drop and shatter my GSIII on St. Patrick's Day in Chicago:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GreaterLesser:
I did the same thing lol I still my GSIII to play with Lollipop builds now - Screen still works but it's a crack going diagonally up the screen. Still an okay phone
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] johnjwilly:
help

So I saw in your post that you blocked the ota update to prevent the notification from bugging you could you share with me the steps to do this please
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] :
You can do this or this. Whatever is easier for you.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Leraeniesh:
Although the community may not immediately approve, wouldn't it be smarter to hold off releasing the root method until Verizon pushes lollipop?

That way, you won't have Verizon and Moto patching up any possible holes before the major release.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windraver:
If this was a game of chess then that sounds like the best approach in getting both lollipop and root.

Either ways, I've blocked all updates in preparation for root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Because he may not be going to post the process to root the phone and instead maybe he is developing a paid system like Sunshine. And if so, that may take time.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] bigv5150:
In theory that sounds good except what if they have already discovered it and patched it I'm 5.0. Then your SOL.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] dwh2o13:
So here is what I gather about Sunshine from this thread having never heard of it before now. Is Sunshine simply a paid system tool designed to unlock bootloader?

Cut my rooting/romming teeth on my XT912 RAZR MAXX so no unlocked bootloader there. The RAZR was / is a great phone and like most everyone here I'm really excited about the prospect of a rooted DT. Unlocked bootloader, even better.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] X_man.:
"Sigh".... Another day over and off to bed without root again. lol
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jnclocker:
That's why I just canceled my Verizon contract and moved on to T-Mobile. Those kind of aggravations got to me with the galaxy nexus, the turbo threw me over the edge thus the cross over. That lockdown on verizon for no reason just sucks. Am happy and really happy with the nexus 6. You should break your contracts if you live in places where T-Mobile has network its gotten better and really good.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
Surely you didn't have aggravations with root on your Galaxy Nexus on Verizon.

You contradicted yourself btw. First you say it would be released if we weren't so mean to you, then you say it hasn't been released due to bugs.

Most of the members watching and posting in this thread and other threads truly appreciate the hard work put in to make these hacks possible. Don't be discouraged by a few and thank you for your efforts.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
He doesn't know because he didn't do it.

His claim to root was months ago and he claimed it was through the camera he got access. That is not an init exploit.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Well heck yeah, IIRC the second coming of Christ means the end of the world - anything is better than that, lol!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
I wouldn't worry about [MENTION=2414417]endafy[/MENTION] releasing it. See his posting history.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
This is what happens when you are a Verizon customer, lol!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] kwyrt:
True enough. Maybe it's just being Verizon customers with no root makes everyone grumpy.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I don't get the hate on the Verizon GNex. It was a great phone for its time except for Samsung's horrible radios/antennas and that had nothing to do with Verizon. The battery life sucked but so did the battery life of every other 4G LTE phone of that time period except for the Razr Maxx, which had a very large battery but consequently was a thick, heavy phone.

Waiting for the updates didn't ruin the phone for me and compared to what else was offered on Verizon at the time, the GNex was da bomb.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I am confused here. I thought the guy who had root was maiko1?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] trikotret:
Lmao. Once root is released, he'll have a donation link although it's not his work. ?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jntdroid:
It is... see here and [MENTION=1415579]adrynalyne[/MENTION] 's other posts after that.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I don't see where that is such a bad thing. I wouldn't have believed it if jcase hadn't posted confirmation. This was a brand new poster. Of course people are going to be skeptical. It's not like you don't find trolls on forums that like to bait people, you do.

Ok well that is a constitutional criminal law concept and has nothing at all to do with anything but the government charging you with a crime for which they could take away your liberty. It is really not relevant to this topic at all.

All I have to say is this - if you are not skeptical in situations in life when people who you have never encountered before tell you something you have no way of verifying, then you likely get taken advantage of a lot in life. Sorry but it is the wise man who is a skeptic.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] thecaptain0220:
Endafy is not legit. Evidently everyone is reading up to his post and then skipping to the end. Adrynalyne has pointed this out several times since his post. There is plenty of evidence of his past posts. People need to check their sources instead of assuming something like this is true immediately.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
OK but maiko1 is legit right?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] thecaptain0220:
Yes according to jcase he is.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
If you want to take jcase's word for it, which would be a really good idea, then yes.

Edit: you beat me to it, lol.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Those 11 people who thanked him need to take it back then, lol! And people wonder why there is skepticism - because trolls.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] X_man.:
Being skeptical is fine. And it is a good thing because if you are not then you will fall for anything. BUT skepticism and being rude and mean don't have to go together is all I'm saying.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Looks like Endafy is trolling so the skepticism was warranted. He's not the guy who posted he had root earlier.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] X_man.:
There are lots of people that just like to stir stuff up without a doubt.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
I reported it and was going to leave it at that. However, people were thanking him and skipping over what I posted so I replied further.

The LAST thing I want to see is root get released and people start donating to [MENTION=2414417]endafy[/MENTION] instead of the true source.

That would be tragic.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Make sure you donate to the right person and not a troll.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Draven10785:
Yes. I am seeing that now. I'll make sure the money goes to the right person when it comes to that point.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
[MENTION=2414417]endafy[/MENTION] was trying to take claim, which could have led to erroneous donations.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
His post is now up to 14 thanks, lol!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ahaynes42:
Wow, people are buying into the troll. How is that guy not blocked and banned yet? He has a history of stirring up controversy with no evidence for his claims. Thanks [MENTION=1415579]adrynalyne[/MENTION] for making it clear to everybody.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I think it is worse this time b/c he is leaving people with the impression that he is affiliated with maiko1. I think the people thanking him think he is part of a team working on root with maiko1.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] X_man.:
That's what I thought.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] bigguy0691:
I misread and I agree with you!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
OK well remove your thanks - b/c his post has been thanked so many times it appears at the top of the list on the right and then people notice it and if they haven't been following the thread, they give more thanks.

I just did a check on this [MENTION=2414417]endafy[/MENTION] member via web and it brings up his name (which I will not say to protect his privacy), hes a gamer (wow/mindcraft), hes married and age (keeping silent for privacy). All the stuff I seen claims he is a programmer. I am not saying hes not lying, or is lying. Just sounds fishy with him
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
Being a programmer shouldn't lend credence at anyway unless it can be held to a relevant field with Android/mobile hardware.

I'm a software developer, but 95% of it is not Android or *nix related. If I claimed root, I'd question myself as well, LOL.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] the_rooter:
I just started with what we have and that is just his forum user name and googled it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] drumrjoe:
Quick question, I tried finding my info in all the posts but didn't see anything regarding my question...

So.. Just got my droid turbo yesterday, Verizon/moto tried pushing an update, I haven't installed it yet. I understand that it just updates volte and some other small things, not lollipop. But holding off in anticipation. That's the right way to go, right?

Thanks,

Drumrjoe
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Character Zero:
Well all I have seen is in the video it looks like the person is using a brand new Droid Turbo. The wrapping is still on the screen and all. So it might be safer to hold off on updates. I have updated fully so I waiting to see if there is a SW version requirement.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] r3pwn:
A few things wrong with that:

1) Unless you SERIOUSLY screw something up, you can't hard-brick a device while attempting to get root access. But since you're such a great hacker (extreme sarcasm intended), this should be of no issue for you, right?

2) "It is dangerous because it has to do with init code." Here you're just using words you've heard before to make yourself sound smart. No root exploit will come from dealing with init scripts (take note, not "code") unless whoever wrote them was drunk, high, and/or extremely stupid.

3) "The bug was through the camera app, we were able to gather init lines and break in." This is kinda funny actually. This single statement there's so much wrong with, it would take another 15 minutes to point it all out. Fortunately for you, I don't have that kind of time right now.

4) "No we don't have the bootloader yet, most likely coming to Sunshine." Really? That's funny. Because I asked jcase and he said that he was not working on adding support for the Turbo.

5) I don't believe that you are actually working with [MENTION=5697730]maiko1[/MENTION]. Go ahead, prove me wrong, but with all of your troll-ish posts in the (very recent) past, there's no way anyone here will trust you.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
You COMPLETELY have missed what has gone on here. The guy who has root is not the subject of the controversy here. It is someone else who is posting in a way that is misleading people.

Read before you post.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mistermojorizin:
You may be right about the current controversy. However, the problem as I see it is that people just need to be nicer and have better people skills. I know everything that's happened and I still felt like that message applies regardless of whether it's a different person.

Not attacking posts, any posts, will likely expedite free exchange of information, which is all I want. [emoji6]
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Draven10785:
How would one go about doing that? I didn't know his background when I read his first post here and don't see an option to take mine off of it. I by far don't want to feed the trolls, especially if they are trying to take credit for another mans work.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I am definitely right about the current controversy.

Again, you completely missed what went on here.

Whatever, if I feel like I need motherly advice, I will ask my mom for it, not you. Preachy people are annoying.

AGAIN - people were mislead. Misleading posts do nothing to promote the free exchange of accurate information.
