Just to be sure, we should check all new inofficial Firmwares from Samsung before posting it here to avoid problems. Maybe they'll do the same for SGS.

Doesn't matter if its dev or not, we already have a thread.

From what I've read its only a problem if you use Odin (not the one click) to flash new stock firmwares. If you use the method of extracting the system from the .rfs files you would be fine, as the boot loader is in other files. Sbl.bin and boot.bin if I remember correctly.

Ya barely anyone does that, nothing to worry about imo. All the roms in the dev section don't contain that.

Motorola is following HTC in unlocking the bootloaders for their devices.

here is the link
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
as an initial stage the Photon Q 4G LTE sprint version will be supported and others to follow
soon enough the development on this phone will hit the roof
Sry but does not work on our device.....
Wrong place, time and topic.. already been discussed in this and many other forums.. please search and if it's not your dev work... don't post a thread here.

Then why the heck did you post this in the dev section. This is not YOUR work! It goes in the general section.
Reported.
P.S. we have discussed this many times, and even in our unlock bootloader and bootloader unlock bounty threads now.
Moved to general. Not releasing anything and it doesn't work for the Atrix, at least not yet.
Hey guys,
I have a desire s and tried to update from cyanogen mod 7.2 (2.3.7) to the official htc 4.0 update, downloaded the wwe ruu 4.0 update from htc,
the update completed but i can't boot. just get a black screen.
I can load hboot screen by pressing and holding down the volume down and power button. how can i get the 4.0 or 2.3.7 back?
Thank you
Read the stickies and use the search function please. Do you really think you are the first person to ask this?
Also, when you do ask questions, give more info about your phone so the guys who know what they're doing have a chance of working out what's wrong. :banghead:

Dont be a fool here. When people asked you to search, is because very similar or exactly the same questions/issues have already been asked, discussed and solved. And when people ask u to give more info, provide it eg, hboot, s-off, relocked.

Thanks Rain - you getting in there meant that I didn't go diving in and ripping the OP a new one for his attitude. I almost expect it from a newbie, but not from someone who has been on XDA for 7 years (even if they haven't exactly participated much). I guess that with him having not posted anything for almost the whole 7 years he probably hasn't been on here and is a virtual noob anyway.
I really don't understand why people are unable to firstly search and secondly to follow instructions given when they ask for help
Sorry that I am a noob, but I have been reading threads for a couple hours and haven't found a source that will answer my question.
What is the easiest way to get JB on my HOX?
I have ran into some that seem easy but only to find that I need a CID of HTC_xxx where mine is CWS_001. After a post directing me to this forum I have continued to try to find something to help me get JB and no luck. If there is a post that describes this please reply with it, or if anyone would be kind enough to post directions on how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.
Again, sorry that I am a noob at this, first Android phone, switched from iOS after Apple's disappointing "new phone", aka iPhone 4s with an extra row of icons.
Thanks!

First, you can use this tool to easily root your phone, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952426), then flash any JB ROM you like and just follow the instructions.

You have to change your CID from the AT&T default before you can unlock anyway. Once you do that, it doesn't matter anymore.

The CID will be changed to 1111111 before you can unlock your phone and then root, so don't worry about that. Happy flashing!

Ok...all these noobs getting the phone for free are now pissing me off completely. If you want to overcome being a noob, you have to put in time to read and search. DO NOT DO ANYTHING BEFORE FEELING COMFORTABLE WITH THE INFORMATION AT HAND
Being a noob means you should have at least watched the noob video when signing up. If you did not you broke the first rule of XDA and you need to watch it. If you did watch it(which I suspect you did not) you would know to search and read before posting. The community is here to answer questions we all have, but not questions that have been answered over and over again. Nor to spoon feed you.
oh ****...i know whats going to happen after he gets it rooted.......Don't you?? i see a brick coming up from attempting to flash the EVO OTA.
zac507, there is no official jb sense for our phone. someone should of stated that in the first reply shame on ALL of you. if you read his OP you would see he already tried flashing the endeavoru jb rom which is why he got the CID error.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044729
Here are GREAT guides for noobs basically from start to finish here. When I was first starting I made a Q&A thread ONLY after reading enough to where I was confused and not confident in going forward without consulting others.....The key here is that you need to read and understand what you are doing first before you ask for help otherwise what good is the help?
Anyways, good luck reading and hopefully everything goes well

Thank you to everyone (except Chef). I will continue to read and do research before rooting or flashing my phone.
Chef, I have read through the forums quite a lot, asked others who have flashed other Android devices and watched many video tutorials on the subject. But before doing anything I wanted to ask a specific question that I did not see in the forums to get a clear and concise answer. Since I PAID for my phone, I do not want to brick it, hence my thread. I suggest you pull your over-inflated tech ego out of your swollen rear and learn to read. I said I was a noob at this. Noobs have questions. People on forums answer questions to help them. You, on the other hand, just act like a prick and contribute nothing to the thread. Thanks for absolutely no helpful information, please stop posting on any forum if this is how you do it.
Again, thank you to everyone else who replied. You were very helpful!

Where do I begin to correct this post?
First, let's start with the fact that you asked "what is the easiest way to get JB on HOX?" Well assuming you read, and searched and etc. you wouldn't need to ask that question considering you would have had the answer already because you in fact read and you would know that you can flash countless JB roms if bootloader unlocked and rooted.
My over inflated tech ego must have got in the way though. Even though you asked a question which is so similar to all the other JB related questions asked on this forum.
Obviously you need to continue to read(skimming and reading are different) considering the fact that you try to run an international RUU on your phone...
I was looking out for your best interest, if you want to take it to a personal level and call me a prick so be it, but I sure hope I help ingrained the fact that you need to read more before tinkering.
I think my rear is swollen I should go lay down
Zac, if you have any trouble or need help I for one would be willing to help, sent you a pm so we don't offend anyone else in here.

Where the heck is "over there"? I assume some other device.
If somebody with 400+ posts on here doesn't get the purpose of custom ROMs, what the heck have you been doing here all this time?
I want to root and make a titanium backup before getting to the stage of unlocking and ROMing. All guides/tools (I'm on a mac but have access to a windows machine too) seem to be an all in one solution that wipes, unlocks and roots.
Also is it only system stuff that's deleted? /sdcard/ will be left, right? Sorry for simple question. I've never had an internal memory only phone before.

You can't unlock your bootloader without wiping. And there's no rooting method, yet, that doesn't require unlocking the bootloader.

You guys may spend a lot of time on this forum, and that's fine. But just because a question has been asked before doesn't mean every person who visits here will have seen it. It's often faster to ask and receive answers that to spend time searching a forum.
