Super One Click is easy enough... even though you might have to try multiple times, its the closest thing to a "one touch root".

This is though is that my com doesn't work its stuck in ubuntus command line on boot so I can't use it until I get a different boot image

no freaking way. Can someone else confirm?

I think hes talking about the Odin prompt that tells you loading custom OS could cause problems... Bootloader doesnt appear to be unlocked.

It be nice if it is
I'm not doing the ota though till Dan says its OK just in case its not and just in case the new kernel won't let his unlock work

download mode
i think it just puts it in download mode so you could flash thru odin or adb.

They cant patch something when they don't know how it was broken. The whole point of him not releasing the bootloader unlock is that they can't stop us from unlocking if they don't know how we do it

I don't know if it's the Odin prompt or a new prompt. Somebody please verify

Ya mods should delete or lock before a noob thinks they're phone is now bootloader unlocked when all that happened was the phone was entered into download mode...

Yeah that says Custom OS not unlock the phone and it was there before the update. If you are getting a prompt about unlocking, that's something different.

I don't know of a way to root without a pc. Casual and Odin both require a pc

I think you are out of luck if you are on a verizon device because they come with a locked bootloader. If it was for another carrier it is possible.

This MAY work on Verizon, but not ENTIRELY sure. The guy who made the thread did say it worked on Sprint and T-Mobile S3's. But this post is all that I know of that provides a rooting from phone method.

Mobile Odin requires you to already have root access to function, so unfortunately he couldn't use Mobile Odin to flash a rooted stock ROM in this case.

Done some work on the apk and it needs input from the settings apk. But not as simple as that the way the app is set up it requires the core from the 8x for the linguistics. So its a no go for any other phone with out serious work and serious battery drain.

Yep. You need either the X8 (or theoretically the S800) for it to work. Even if it could be modded to work on a standard cpu, it's going to kill your battery life.

It will only work on a device that has the framework for it...cause its in the settings section of the phone

Soft brick?

Do my aunt is calling me about her phone not turning on, I don't know if it is our isn't she briefly said I'd
It barely turns on but doesn't turn on. I'm guessing it is a soft brick, she will be sending her phone into Verizon to get a replacement in a few days, but she wants to see if I could get her files off of it into her PC. When I go to her house and look at and it definitely is a soft brick. What could I possibly do to try and get them without wiping her phone?

Edit: Can confirm it is soft bricked. She said it goes to the droid icon then nothing.

So, from what she says (hopefully will be getting the device later tonight to look at it) it goes to the "reboot screen" which is the droid screen I'm guessing and just sits there or something. She didn't really tell me much, but that's all I could get out of her at the time. Will hopefully have the device to see what it is really doing later.

No it was not rooted. And it charges when it wants to. I have tried 6 different chargers and the same thing. (Can't be hardware it is almost brand new) stays at the first logo when powered on, if it decides to charge, and I can boot into recovery by holding power and volume down if it decides to charge.

Yes. I was going for simplicity. Use that thread and do method 2 and omit
fastboot erase userdata
Command.
You could try to use House of Moto and keep data option. Not sure if this will work but you can't make it worse.
Also are you familiar w moto and fxz?

I've only used Samsung and nexus devices. Motorola is brand new to me. No experience in it at all.

This has a save data option built in I believe.
OK without sounding harsh you have a fair amount of reading to do. My recommendation is use the previous link I provided and use method 2 manual flash.
It depends on what amount of reading you want to do.....at the very least you can warranty the phone.
