[Q] - Motorola Atrix 2

Hello,
I would like to buy a Motorla Atrix 2 (MB865) but before to buy it I need to know two things. First, is it easy to install ROMs like cyanogenmod? adn second, is it possible to use Jelly Bean and have all the phone's functions working?

I am also hunting for a technique for rooting xyboard mz617 devices (I've got 10 of them I want to update to the latest they will support and they are stuck on Android 4.0.4).
Please update if you come across a good set of instructions / tools.
( also hunting on xoomforums.com )

[Q] [XOOM 2] A question for ROM of XOOM2

As I have a XOOM 2 running Android 4.0.4, I'm searching for further update for this device.
I found that the EOS Team has released Android 4.1.2 nightly build for XOOM, but not the XOOM 2 version.
Actually I haven't seen any 4.1.2 build for XOOM 2. So I want to ask,
can I use XOOM rom on the XOOM 2? if Not, is there any stable room for XOOM 2 in the entire forum?
if there is, i hope that you will send me a link of the thread.
thx for your help!
No
I Dont know much about the xoom 2 but the bootloader was never unlocked therefore no custom roms thats why theres no dev support

I've recently received a Xoom 2 but it's running 3.2.2 , You've updated it or it was the original version came from the company?
another interesting matter is that I've not seen any motorola device managers that support Xoom 2!

Tablet is upgradeable directly from Motorola to version 4.0.4 (versions can be checked e.g. https://motorola-global-en-uk.custhelp.com/app/software-upgrade-news/g_id/1994). Some time ago in some language version there were not clearly stated, that 4.0.4 would be the last version for Xoom2, but now it seems that it is.
Device manager at least for US version: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/78644/p/7901,8197

The Motorolla Defy has locked boot loader but can flash custom ROM's via 2nd init another device xt910 uses another form.
I think the device was just not owned as many due to XOOM.

[Q] Kitkat on I497

Hello guys,
I just rootet my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 running 4.1.2 Android from AT&T model i497.
Reading through many threads here I could not find a ROM to upgrade this to Kitkat 4.4.2. Is there an upgrade?
I should also point out that I would be totally OK using any ROM as this Tablet will not use any phone line from AT&T going forward. It will be mounted on the wall for Home Automation with just Wifi. So killing the AT&T crap software and giving me simple KitKat would be totally ok.
Any help guys here?
Thanks in advance.
No luck

Doesn't look like anybody is working on this.
Let me phrase the question then differently. The I497 is from AT&T. The same or similar hardware is also provided by other phone companies or even better there are same or similar hardware versions out there without the mobile SIM card option going with simply WiFi.
Does anybody know which KitKat ROM I can install on my I497 to get it from Jellybean to KitKat even if that means I will have a Vanilla KitKat and also might loose my SIM card option? I just need WiFi on that tablet and that's it.
I am open for suggestions guys. Thanks.
I'm also wondering as well

[REQUEST] Run Jelly Bean apps on Lollipop

Hi,
I don't know if this way is exist or not, but i'm gonna ask it anyway
Is there anyway to port/run Jelly Bean apps on Lollipop? There's a app that i really like and it runs perfect on Jelly Bean. Unfortunately, it's on S3 and doesn't work very well, and last month it got washed in the washing machine . My dad bought a new one for me, but it's A8, and it runs Lollipop 5.1.1. So i redownload the app and it doesn't work anymore. All it show up is just the logo and then stop working. So is there anyway to run it? And yes i do have root, xposed and recovery, but i'm not gonna degrade to Jelly Beans because A8 has Fingerprint, KNOX and i don't know if it works after degrade. Also, this phone has only been release for 5 months and discovered root access recently so i don't think there will be any JB ROM for this model yet.
So, if anyone can help me, i will be much obliged.
Sorry, this thread is in wrong topic
Help please?
