Hello. I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong place, but I was unsure of where to put this. I actually have a Motorola XT860 that I just bought off of someone. They didn't tell me it has this Cyanogenmod 9 on it, & I don't like it, I just want the phone to have whatever OS it normally would on it. I don't know the first thing about this stuff & I'm a little upset that I didn't look at the phone more before I got it, but that's my own fault. Can anyone give me some guidance here? I haven't been able to find anything helpful by Googling it, everything I can find is for other devices. Please advise.
You are in the wrong forum. This is for the Razr HD. Maybe u were looking for the forums for the original Razr?

Find a local cell phone shop in your town. Most of them advertise unlocking and jailbreaking phones. Bet one of the guys there could help. Web based support for the unrooting of a Moto phone is a risky proposition given your apparent newness to this arena.
... Or call the guy back you bought it off of and give him a $20 to do it.

Did you really just make this thread?
Can this be deleted and can we all just act like this didnt just happen?
Thanks.
Yea we do
Noob. Paying good money for a phone. No one has the right to restrict us from anything. we would like to optimise the software, tweak it, overclock it and strip it from bloatware.
Like I said to Htc. I paid for the phone, whether I break it, piss on it, root it, **** on it. Have sex with it, drive over it, bake it. It's my f*ckin phone to do what I like with. Do I want root.

whattttttttttttt do u realize this is XDA ? why would you post something like this in a forum dedicated to take our devices as far as they can go , and like they posted it here before me, we payed for this device we have the right to do what ever we want with them and if we want to root it is because we know the benefits of rooting a phone do some reading and u will see how its a good thing to root your device...........

get an iphone if you dont want to hear about rooting?
or better yet dont look on these forums?
Come on guys, dont feed the troll. Its just what he wants you to do.
I'm no developer nor expert on rooting, flashing (well, not the phone kind lol) or programming, but i do understand why i'm looking forward to the unlocked bootloader on Sensation! I'm still delaying my upgrade so i can get this dual-core beast and give thanks that these guys can help me to get the best from a £500 phone! Only adding my £0.02, but not sure this was a wise thread to start. (scratching head)

It's pointless threads like these that simply clog up the forums.
Thread CLOSED. PLEASE STOP POSTING THREADS ABOUT THE LACK OF DEVELOPMENT.
Hey, you guys! I've been stalking these forums for a long time and now I have a problem where I will need your help. Now, before I get slammed for it, I've searched these and other forums for what I need, I've Googled for hours and hours on end, I've emailed people, and I still can't find a fix to my problem. OK, enough complaining, here is my problem: I bought a Nexus S 4G a few months ago for only $120. I planned on getting it flashed to MetroPCS through their MetroFlash program. I went to their corporate store, and they said they couldn't flash my phone for legal reasons, but they directed me to a man who could flash my phone. I go to him, and he wants $150 to flash it, I say hell no and decide to do it myself. I'm regretting my decision now because ( A.) CDMA Workshop is hard as hell to learn ( B.) There is almost no support out there for this phone.
Anyways, I want to know, has anyone been successful in flashing their NS4G to MetroPCS at home? If you have, please enlighten me! I've been brain-****ting myself to make this work. Right now I'm stuck at the part where I write the ESN. I can read ESN, but when I try to write it, it says "Failed.. ESN has not been changed." I can read/write everything else, except for ESN. I have unlocked it through the SPC and the Internal Security Password. Another issue I'm having is that when I try to read the memory, it gives me an error message saying, "Process is stopped. Phone does not answer" "Process is stopped at: 0000:1000"
This process is too hard, and I call on the great minds of XDA to help me out! Please, all and any information will help! I will love you forever! Thank you in advance!
Edit: I'm using CDMA Workshop 3.8 Trial Version by the way!
Edit: I forgot to mention, everything in this thread is hypothetical and for educational purposes only.
For legal reasons xda forbids on esn hacks. I don't know where you would get help on this but post it if you find something.
Did you search youtube?
Why do you need to change the ESN? That's illegal anyway.
You can follow the Cricket instructions over at howardforums.

Yes I did, and I messaged several youtubers, but sadly no one wants to help me without charging me, which sort of defeats the purpose of doing it myself.

I need it to transfer the ESN from my MetroPCS dumbphone to my Sprint Nexus S 4G. I'm trying to get the NS4G to work on Metro. Also, can you please link me to or help me find those instructions? The search function over there is weak and I can't find anyone who has information on flashing a NS4G. Thank you so much for guiding me in the right direction though!

I think the point is that the process is universal, no matter what phone you have

I agree, the basic process is universal but right now I can't find help for my issue, and even in forums for phones other than the NS4G, I can't find anyone experiencing the same problem. I could use any and all the information I can get right now, because the NS4G doesn't have any readily available simple tutorials for it to be flashed to MetroPCS. There are tutorials for Boost, Cricket, and PagePlus, and I have tried following those, but run into problems with those as well. I'm at a dead end and need help
You don't suppose to change your ESN. You call your carrier and Activate the ESN on your carrier, all you really need to do is load Metro PCS prl.

My friend has an EVO flashed to MetroPCS. I thought it was neat. There is also a thread where someone went to craigslist to find a person to flash an Epic 4g. You may find something there. Keep us updated, please. And if you figure it out for yourself, more power to ya
i'm looking to do the same thing but not to MetroPCS... i have another carrier i would like to flash to but it's a new carrier and there's NO INFO online for flashing to them... and they're online so i can't go to their store to flash this... what info would i need to get this ball rolling??
Just pay to have it done by someone who knows what they're doing. I got my NS4G flashed for $40 including 1st month of service.

Sorry for really late reply, but if you're still having this problem, have you sent the SPC unlock code through CDMA Workshop yet?

Lol I had a forum member help me out with this almost step by step to the point where he helped me get everything working except data,, but I had to eventually go to a guy from Craigslist to get data working. I wish I could give him credit but he wants to remain anonymous. You know who you are! Anyways, I feel terrible for not keeping you guys updated I'd like to make it up to you guys by helping you guys flash your phones or anything related to phone flashing:thumbup:

Hi guys,
I've bought my HTC One XL directly from Australia, through Telstra. But now I live in Brazil
Well, I bricked my phone pretty hard. I even bothered reading all the topics about my stituation to see if there was any available solution. Turns out there isn't.
Well, at least through the community. From what I gathered, HTC is able to refurbish it and send it back - or at least exchange for another one.
The problem is, since this device is not sold in Brazil, HTC-Brazil simply don't do any kind of repair on it. So, my only hope lives in a good australian soul accepting to receive my phone and do me this big favour of checking if HTC-Australia would help me - even if I have to pay some technical fee.
I know this forum is not exacly for something like this, but I'm out of ideas. And since my investment was pretty big and I can't afford another one right now, I'm here begging for some help.
If this good soul exists, please, PM me so we can go through details.
Thanks in advance!
I feel you man..what'd you do to your phone? And when you get on the phone with HTC Australia tell them the truth I've seen them take pity on some people for flashing the wrong thingss and making it free to recover

Thanks man. Well, I was absolutely used to the HOX with Tegra 3, once I got the XL I thought I know almost everything. It worked well for a while, but things went sour when I tried to downgrade. I think it corrupts some stuff on the phone, and after that I think it's not possible to install a RUU. Well, I tried to anyway and found out that the hard way.
I was already pretty honest with them. I talked to them online, told them the whole story, but they said they could do nothing for me since I was in Brazil. And, as I said, HTC-Brazil was completely useless, since they don't sell this device here.
That's why I'm trying to find some help from an australian mate here at the forum. 'Til now, I had no success.
I found a guy who does JTAG here in Brazil. Since I'm having a hard time doing it trough HTC, I think I'll try this one last resort. I think I got almost nothing to lose by now.
What exactly do you need someone to do for you?

Hey timmaaa!
I'd need that person to give me an address to send the device, and after that I'd use this address to ask HTC what should I do.
Possibly I'd need it to be sent to HTC or Telstra.
But it's ok, by now I took the second possibility. I sent it to be used in a test with Riffbox. Now all I have to do is pray, as much as I can.
Anyway, thanks for replying!
Hey radjan! Check out mobiletechvideos.com they do jtagging service for about 80$ ...and its an honest site

Thanks man. I found int while I was doing my research yesterday.
Anyway, I found another site, a brazilian one (amigoandroid.com.br) which does the same service. I called him, and he sound pretty good technically, even explaining to me why jtagiing the Tegra version is a no-go. Also, I found some pretty good reviews about him in some brazilian forums.
He also explained to me that this process for the One XL is still in beta testing. But, as I said, I got pretty much nothing more to lose. For me it's ok if it ends up bricked if it makes future bricked devices come back to life.
Beside that, the price is basically the same, but I save money from the shipping and save some time I'd use to explain brazilian customs that the device was already mine, that I was sending it for repair and yadda yadda.
Anyway, thanks for the help. Will keep posted and, in cade anyone ends up screwed like me, they may fin a light at the end of the tunnel.
Hi I've just received a new tablet , I know its not the best on the market but I have faith that it could be good.
I've followed a few threads on this forum with out having an account, and found the information to be very helpful with my late lg gt540 and my htc desire.
now as you can see at the bottom of this post I've got a DLR_MID. it has no name on the box apart from mid and nothing on the tablet itself, so finding a rom is somewhat fustrating. as the base rom has caused me a few issues i would prefer cmx or similar, with full root as well.
What information would a chef need from me to create a beautiful and tasty maserpiece. Also so advice from someone on one of the issues caused by the rom would be greatly appreciated and I'll go more into that now.
My tablwt has 2 internal storage bays showing up. 1 is listed as internal storage the other as internal sd. When I first got the tablet the sd was registering as 4Gb. I used the intwrnal a2sd function of the rom to move some apps. Without any warning the tablet reset,all the apps were gone but I'm left with only 1.71Gb. I plugged it into my pc to see what would show up there and still got the same 1.71Gb. I factory reset to whole device and still the same. I xould really do with some help with this please.
If you need more info please ask. I will do all it takes from my side to resolve both issues (with some advice with being a noob to tablets)
Kind regards to all
P.s. if I have posted in the wrong area I do apologise as I am new to the forum and haven't really figured the layout properly yet.

Is there someone that could help me please. I don't want to sound pushy, but some help no matter how small would do me the greatest of good. I'm almost at my wits end with both my issues here.
Thanks in advanced

First thing you will need is to know if the bootloader is unlocked and if kernel sources are available. Normally the answer to both is no when dealing with no name devices.

How would one go about find such info out? If you couldgive directions, I will be able to provide the information you require. That's if it would be you that would need the info.

Well first thing I would do is find the OEM and then look at the site and get as much info I could about the device.
Sadly purchased through ebay, I have made countless amounts of contacts with the seller to no avail. I can only assume they only understand money transfer, not language.
I have also made a number of attempts to google, all of which have turned up nothing. There seems to be a small house in the bambo forest making tablets out of panda poo and bambo leaves.

So, I have just received my replacement SGS3. Now I need to unlock the boot loader and root as usual. Problem, PC just died. Have no access to another one that I would be aloud to load ADB and any other programs that will be needed to accomplish this on. Is there any one in here that has a good and strong reputation with the community that lives preferably between Providence, Worcester an d Boston that could help me out? Preferably if you have a laptop and wouldn't mind meeting up let's say at a DD? I buy the coffee and meal. Or if you truly do not care, I am willing to go to you. But prefer not to go that route. Any way, help would be greatly and utterly appreciated. Also, I looked around to see if this was OK to post in this part of the forums. I didn't see anything that stated that I could not. And it does seem to be the logical choice as far as I can see. Though if I am wrong, please lead me to the proper location for future reference. Not that I want to have to do this again. Any way, hope to hear from some one.

I am probably being a little impatient here. But, no one?
The only reason I asked is because I have to get the old phone back to VZW with in a short period of time. Any way, waiting impatiently.

Ok. So this post must have been dead in the water before it began. Not sure why. But oh well. Any way. Can some one delete this after today. But not before midnight. Reason being is because I am driving to East Providence, Yarmouth and then Cambridge for work today. So if some one out there in one of those areas sees this and is willing to help, then that would be great. I am sending my old phone back to Verizon tomorrow. So this will not be needed as of midnight.
