I am looking for compatible bootloaders/Recovery Images for xt925 that is ruining KITKAT bootloader. I looked for one from CWM but it is only for Jelly Bean and looked for one from TWRP site but it was not listed for xt925. It is needed to install cyanogenmod 12 any help in finding one that works would be a big help looked for months trying to find one.

All,
I am mobile android/web developer and I just wanted to get a better insight on when and if Jelly Bean will be released on the Motorola Xyboard. I head rumors that it is staying on 4.0.4 but I wanted to see if you guys have some better sources :cyclops:. Thank you.

Does anyone know where I can find the factory image for this device in order to flash it from fast boot... all links I have found have been broken or no longer existent

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 )

Hey I saw this ( http{ colon} //true-android{dot}blogspot{dot}com/2013/12/update-motorola-droid-razr-hd-xt926-to_16{dot}html ) which says it is possible to put Kitkat on xt926 usinf Safestrap and was wondering if it would work with a locked bootloader? It mentions Safestrap at least but I've a feeling it isn't possible as Safestrap roms use the current kernel which mine has 4.1.2. Also I've heard there might be a way to get at least CM10.1 but everything I've tried has failed :crying:
(haven't made 10 posts yet so can't give link normally : / )

To my knowledge, there is no 4.4 based SS compatible ROM yet. Also, the CM wiki says that CM is only compatible with an unlocked BL. There was a SS compatible CM10.1 running around, but I don't think it's around anymore.

Yeah I've looked around for that CM10.1 but every where I look the file is gone. Thanks for clarifying that for me.
The issue with KitKat is it's a different kernel. In order to reap the benefits of KitKat, you need to run the latest kernel.
SafeStrap for the RAZR HD can only install ROMs using the same kernel as whatever you currently have on your phone. Unlike SafeStrap for the OG RAZR, which uses kexec to allow you to load any kernel, the HD version doesn't have kexec. Therefore, don't expect to see a SS KitKat ROM.
But, the RAZR HD is scheduled to get KitKat. Just not sure when. I would say sometime after March, 2014.
Hi all, it's been awhile since I've done any ROM flashing (older phones) so I'm a little rusty now. I'm currently root, unlocked, CWM with stock 4.1.2 (never flashed any custom ROMs on my S3). I'm wanting to get closet to stock 4.4.4 as possible. Can I use the Nexus 5 4.4.4 firmware on my phone? Or will it not work due to it being GSM?
If this won't work, can anyone recommend a ROM of the latest android version that is closest to stock as possible? Thanks.
I wouldn't recommend flashing anything on an s3 that isn't made for s3, unless of course you happen to like buying new phones to replace a brick that you made.

THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Wrong firmware = BRICK
Before you flash ANYTHING read, read, read,...then read some more.

The current CyanogenMod 11 nightly builds for the "d2lte" device are mostly-stock Android v4.4.4 and very solid on this device.

Hello! I have been running CM12 (lollipop 5.0.1) on my XT926 for months now, only updated it once from the original version posted. I decided to update it again because a few things have become wonky; however, it seems the thread no longer exists. AM I GOING CRAZY?!?! Did it ever exist? Did it have to get taken down? Can someone please fill me in? I have absolutely been ENTHRALLED with this ROM and do not want to put something else on here if an updated version of CM12 is floating around here somewhere. I saw Validus is on here, which will serve as my next ROM if this has ceased to exist. Any info is much appreciated!
Thanks!

You probably flashed DHackers version. It was originally linked via his twitter account. Just google dhacker cm12. You'll find the updated ROM
Right on, thanks!

There is no way to downgrade if you're locked. Please search next time, this has been asked and answered a lot.

Hi,
I have rooted my Verizon Wireless Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 MZ617 codename pasteur running 98.8.127.MZ617.Verizon.en.US Jelly Bean Android Version 4.1.2 , I have successfully been able to get bootstrap with CWM installed and working as well as Safestrap 3.12 :fingers-crossed:
But I can't seem to find any ROMs. A few questions I have.
A)anyone have names or links to ROMs I can flash?
B)How about a ZIP flashable ICS leak? Can someone make one plz?
C)BigPart.... Is my understanding an unlocked bootloader is required for this?
D)what if any cross compatible builds are there ? Like can I run a WiFi only ROM for the Motorola XOOM 2 MZ615 ? Or the CDMA 3G MZ608? Or will Xoom 1 Stingray ROMs MZ602/MZ604 work?
Any insight is appreciated. :good: OMW to find out if Sunshine will work to unlock the bootloader.
+1 :good:
