[Q] Installed update....no root!

I went back to stock. Hit the wrong button and installed the update. Now I am not rooted and hate everything!!! Any idea how long before I can root this poor phone so I don't hate everything about it and on it?:crying:

There's a good chance there won't be another exploit found. This Is thy you have to protect root.

There is talk of a method to partially flash back to previous build using rsd, root, then update again over on droidrzr.com I will try to find it and link it for you.

Rsd lite is a Motorola program used to flash xml files.
I was wrong, it wasn't droidrzr.com, it was right here on xda.

realbbb is a very sharp guy and former Bionic owner who went through all of the "Cheescake" leaked update issues we had with that device while Motorola was struggling with the baseband firmware in the early rollout of VZW's LTE network.
This workaround is a version of the method we used when you got stuck on a non upgradeable test leak and had to revert to a prior version to move forward.
It is exactly the sort of creative thinking that is required in situations like this when you find yourself stuck by unforeseen circumstances.
This can easily and safely be tested by anyone who is currently on the update and has lost root, since the full XML.zip was released shortly after the update went live last week.

[Q] Significant battery drain after 9.18.79 update.

I'm encountering significant battery drain after updating my RAZR MAXX HD to 9.18.79. Has anyone experienced? I used to love the battery life prior to the update, but now it straight up sucks. I'm rooted.
Any suggestions? I guess there's no real way of removing the update.

You can always use mattlgroff utility to flash an older SBF.
However its going to wipe your phone so I suggest using titanium backup to backup your apps.
You might also want to do a nandroid backup either via safestrap or TWRP just in case you want to get your phone back to the 9.20 with all your informatoin still intact.

Option 1 from this utility: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2307439

Thanks. I'll try that. I'm surprised I'm the only person experiencing this problem. It must be an updated app that has changed its resource utilization.

Hmm I'm going to have to try this. I did the factory reset last night after the upgrade due to reboots and horrible battery life. Still getting the reboots and too early to tell if battery life is better or not. I was a fool and didn't unlock my bootloader, only rooted because I was as happy as a pig in mud with this phone prior to this last upgrade. I wonder after the sbf if its unlockable again? Probably similar to the droid x sbf?

I don't know why do people want to update at all cost. If it ain't broken there is no need to fix it. Quite frankly I liked ICS best but when I sent my Droid for a repair it came already with JB. Just disable moto services and you won't see those nagging, annoying update requests. I am aware that many guys will always want "the newest" version... F.e. The newest gmail client sucks big time. In order to delete the message gotta click twice. They got rid of the trash can. Who believes it is better/more beneficial now? Just my 2 cents.

Successfully used the above linked utility to revert back to old radio and system version 9.16.6. Root worked in the utility too, but I had my phone rooted before. Now I have 2 superuser apps, one with a pound sign icon and the other with the green android with an eye patch. I went for the gold and the boot loader unlock failed of course. From what I read I knew it would but had to try anyways. I'll be happy if I'm back to where I was before. Got the updater froze now in titanium backup.

Works on my locked boot loader through RSD Lite. Got the new radios on the 9.16.6 version. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a reboot machine again!

FYI give 9.18.79 update about 3-4 days. After that you will see your batter life go up. I got 1d 6h 35m on medium usage after a couple of days.The first day I only had about 16 hours.

So the two things I have circled never used to be listed under running apps. What would cause these to be listed? Only since the VZW update have I noticed this.

Maxx vs Moto X.

Moto has offered a warranty replacement of a Maxx for my X. I know the boot sound will bother me a lot. But I thought I would ask If others may have made the same swap. I do wear an xl glove so the size increase is OK.
Are slip-proof rubber cases & screen protectors hard to get?

I've plated around with both and although I don't care for the droid branding....I loved the battery life... I'm actually waiting for an X swap for a maxx myself right now. I'm just bummed neither one I am able to root so far

RAZR Maxx has definitely got its niche: battery. You can also root the Maxx, I have no idea what the other guy is talking about, Google it there are tons of root methods (PC, one-click etc). I would recommend the Maxx, and AFAIK there are a good amount of accessories for it. You can remove the boot sound after you root by deleting /system/media/audio/startup.ogg or the similar, you will find it in one of the sub-folders. It will be an ogg file. If you choose not to root you can still remove it by creating a flashable update.zip to remove that one file (false signed with toolkit to pass md5 check). Hope this gives some insight,

Yes this method is not very published, but you can do a lot of root things with it without actually having root. My main purpose to create these was to push ad-blocking hosts files to peer's devices without having to root them. Basically, you must have the know-how knowledge on how to code updater scripts, I will not go into detail on this as there are guides.. But once you have your package lined up, you're all set to go to flash it, if you have cwm installed. Without root, you have no cwm. So that's where I learned how to fake sign those update.zips to flash thru stock. Just get signtool or better yet there's more reliable ones getting out there just Google search "update.zip signer" and before you know it you can mod all you want without even having root. One thing to note is that your bootloader must not have any signature checking on main /system partition or whatever you're modding.
Hope this helps,

After some research, I think so yes. Check out this article: the OP states that the KitKat zip can be flashed regardless of locked bootloader. So now as long as you can fake-sign your own zips you can mod all you want. Sometimes (a lot of times) the signing doesn't work right (and you'll read that a lot of places) but that won't hurt your device, the recovery will simply deny your update until you get it right.
Edit: I am not sure if this goes for *latest* moto's, as you put emphasis on in your post.

Many of us X/Ultras would love such an opportunity.

Chances are that either phone you get, it might be on 4.4.2 already. So if the boot loaders can't be unlocked, you won't have root for now. And if they are 4.2.2 or 4.4, you might be able to root.
Its gonna be luck of the draw.
I'd take the maxx for sure personally. Its the same phone, with a bigger screen and battery. Win win.

You can roll the dice and hope for an X that isn't on 4.4.2.....or get the better phone.
You may end up with root on either or no root....I'd go for the phone I prefer.

There might be tons of root method available for RAZR Maxx, but this is a forum for Droid MAXX - not RAZR - and unless you are on 4.2.2 there is no root method available for the MAXX

If you are about timely updates to Android, I'd stick with the X. Otherwise, the Maxx is a great phone, especially the battery life. It'll be hard to tell the difference between the X and the Maxx from a usability point of view.
The Droid sounds are so amazingly annoying, though it's good that you don't have to restart the phone all that often. It's pretty stable.
As others have said, if root is important to you, it'll probably not happen with the Maxx unless you're lucky to get it with 4.2.2 still installed. I don't care about root myself (in fact, I really don't want the phone rooted.)

Sure. If you like Zagg-style, Zagg and Skinomi make them, and Verizon sells the non-wet apply versions. I think that there are enough TPU cases that you should find something.

[Q] OTA 186.43.15 Let's Lay This Question To Rest...

...As I'm sure many others like me will visit this forum, read guide disclaimers, and still ask themselves "is it really true??"
If we accept the latest OTA (186.43.15) WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader, we are screwed. There is absolutely, positively, nothing that can be done (hacking, version rollback, etc.) with the phone forever. The bootloader has been locked and we're stuck with what we've got. No way to unlock it now.
So, is it really true? Please say it ain't so.

Yes, it is true, at least with the Motopocalypse method. There are other ways to bootloader unlock phones such as Sunshine, but I think that only supports newer Motorola devices.
http://theroot.ninja/
Also, you have to be rooted. If Towelroot doesn't work on the latest OTA (no idea if it does or not) then you'd have to wait for a new exploit.

Thanks for the reply.
What's most frustrating about this is that I knew it was coming, I knew the bootloader was going to be locked by the next OTA but I was too nervous to unlock the bootloader and possibly brick my wifes phone in the process. She would be pissed.
The system update notifier kept bugging her and I kept telling her to not to do it and eventually she just she went ahead with it. Ugh.

Forget another bootloader unlock exploit. That was a once-in-a-lifetime chance. As for root, well, there might be, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Of course, that's what we all said when the first KK OTA came out and look what they gave us - Towelroot AND bootloader unlock, but the bootloader unlock was a mistake - they accidentally reverted part of the code back to the original exploit code. So, that was a mistake on Moto's part.
But, this latest OTA is the last OTA for this phone. No more updates from Moto so don't expect the bootloader exploit to show up again.

That's what I was afraid of. Same thing happened on my Droid X once updated to the last build of 2.3.4
I guess the bottom line is this: I don't care that much about the final KK build as much as I care about wifi hotspot tethering. That's really what I'm after. After her phone was updated to KK from JB it killed the tethering app that we were using. So my only recourse was to flash the phone back to JB. But I just didn't have the time to mess with it, plus it's my wife's phone and I didn't want to risk bricking it.
Near as I can tell, after quite a bit of searching, I don't have any way to fix tethering with this latest build. I'll ask the question in the Q&A section.

Exactly what version of KK is she on? If she's still on 183.46.10, then that allows the bootloader to be unlocked which will then allow you to root it and then apply a tethering hack.
If, however, you are on 183.46.14 or 183.46.15, then yes, you are hosed and cannot revert back to 183.46.10 or JB.

She actually hasn't been happy with her XT926, so I think I might just buy a used phone of the same generation and mod it. If successful, we'll just swap the hacked one onto her account. I'm thinking Galaxy S3? I'd be curious to know what the "most hackable" phone of that generation is (JB or early KK)? Or should I post that question in the XDA General? I've searched and haven't found that question asked.

Abstract: you wanna root your Motorola Razr HD (xt925) ?
You can't go anymore with the "gentle procedure" - which is using Motochopper, a way to root the 4.1.2 without tearing apart your phone.
So either you go back with a stock 4.1.2 and live happily with motochopper and a slow sys, or you follow Motorola instructions to unlock the phone. Be aware that once you enter the code Motorola will provide you'll void your warranty (if you still are under the grace period).

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Unfortunately, right now there is no way to root or unlock that build.

Is this still the case? My phone was auto-upgraded to 4.4.2... I'm stuck?
