Help Needed From XT 1254 Developers Please - Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sunshine was working perfect from 4 month and i was needed to update sunshine version only but after Droid kernel update this message is coming now "sunshine only supports the droid turbo on the SU4TL-44 (5.1) Kernel. Please Update or flash the correct kernel (3.10.40-perf-g90ddf4a) and try again."
What to do now ??????????????????????

This specific phone bootloader was locked or unlocked before you took the SU4TL-49 update?
You are implying you were already running Sunshine on this phone, and if so the bootloader was UNlocked.
Did you re-lock the bootloader for some reason before flashing SU4TL-49?
1) you can only unlock the XT1254 bootloader once with Sunshine (well, almost impossible to unlock twice) -- even if you don't flash anything else.
2) if you flash SU4TL-49 with a locked bootloader, that closes the bootloader unlock exploit.
OR is this a different XT1254 phone you wish to run Sunshine on?
You have to run Sunshine and UNlock the bootloader BEFORE flashing SU4TL-49.

Are you just running sunshine to gain temp root? There is not a temp root for .49 if you unlocked your boot loader previous to the last update you can simply flash a recovery, then flash root.

I had Unlocked bootloader before update and did'nt re-locked means its still unlocked, but root access is not open now,
mrkhigh yes i want to use it for Temproot as it was giving me root access before.

So as long as you have an unlocked bootloader you can perment root by installing twrp recovery over stock recovery. You will need a computer and have to use a fastboot command but all the instructions can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62363432&postcount=2. Hope this helps

I didn't even think they might only be using Sunshine for temp root only. To me, that's useless. Just go ahead and root, and install TWRP.
But at least their bootloader is unlocked! So, they are good.
Now they know how to go to the next step and permanently root.

Yep, This is the only way as of now due to no temp root. If you had temp root the PC with fast boot would be optional.

In these days, we don't need a PC to root and flash a custom recovery anymore usign a PC. If you root using TowelRoot , then you don't need to unlock the bootloader. Also you can use [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool , you can flash a custom recovery from it.
But I suggest that you unlock the bootloader because as far as I know, you need it unlocked to flash stock factory image (return to stock ROM, kernel, recovery, etc).
So unlock the bootloader first when you are on stock (everything on the device including photos, music, personal files , will be deleted) and Root using TowelRoot, flash TWRP recovery using Rashr and when you go back to stock, after you flash the stock factory image, all you need to do is lock the bootloader using a PC (just if you need to take the device for warranty)
or
Leave it locked, root using TowelRoot, flash TWRP recovery using Rashr and when you want to go back to stock, you can then unlock the bootloader (everything on the device will be deleted) , flash the factory image using the PC and then lock the bootloader (just if you need to take the device for warranty)

Rooting will not lock the bootloader. There is an app from the playstore that u can use for that, and it doesn't delete data...

Yes.
Worked great on my 16GB Nexus 7 2013!
I was a little confused about what fastboot mode was and researched it. To get fastboot mode make sure device is shut down and unplugged from pc. After device is off press power and volume - key at the same time and hold until a bootloader screen shows and it shows fastboot mode in red on bottom portion of screen then connect to computer and allow windows to load drivers. In my case it loaded ACER ADB driver. when driver loads I ran the ROOTME app and unlocked first and was warned that it will erase personal data then when that was done I rooted and the whole procedure took about 5 minutes. It also installed SuperSU. Very easy program to use. Thanks again!
Will this work on android 5.0.2?

All root methods break ota update on lollipop

Only root, have updates OTA from Google or need remove root to this ?

I did root my phone. Just did the root and nothing else.
I wonder if the direct updates from google will fall on my phone, or if I'll need to remove the root to get the updates.
(I know that after upgrading i lost root, but this is no problem).
Thank you for attention
No. This is all covered in the OTA help-desk thread which you can get to via my signature.
Just download the full rooted stock ROM in android development and flash it without wipe from recovery.
It's actually fewer steps anyway.
OTA = revert system changes and/or kernel, reboot into recovery, flash the OTA , boot to bootloader, connect to pc, fastboot flash recovery, reboot into recovery, flash supersu.
Rooted stock = reboot into recovery, flash the ROM.
No brainer really. Flashing an OTA if rooted is a fool's errand.

Read the OTA thread I've already told you about.
Make sure you backup all your data first. Towelroot is not 100% successful so if it fails, you'll have no choice but to unlock bootloader which wipes device
Or better yet, unlock the bootloader with boot unlocker before the update. That way you won't lose anything.

Thanks bro.
Note: I want return to stock, and available to OTA updates. Not root. Unroot.
I have installed root with Towelroot (and work fine here), but i uninstalled this root (in app itself of SuperSu), because i want OTA updates. Root is not prioritary to me.
So, please, Check these 2 pictures if my device is enabled to receive direct updates from Google?

Download it from here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=14&file=911
Firmware version: Android 4.4.2
Blur_Version.175.44.1.falcon_cdma.Boost.en.US
Carrier: Boost US
MD5 Sum: 78DEF46FA777AECCC7F7046EF367FBFF
After you download this, please flash the fastboot file using RSD-Lite:
Please download RSD-Lite 6.1.6 from here: https://bitly.com/bundles/johnlgalt/2 and the latest Moto drivers.
Thanks, but it keeps failing at the first step (aboot) which is why I want a flashable version.
Unless you know how to get rid of the "Preflash Validation Failed" error.

Can you show me a screenshot of the error?
No for two reasons:
1. The error is in fastboot mode
2. I don't have a second device to take a picture. I'll try to find the error online.

In this example picture it's from CMD. It produces this error on motoboot, aboot, and fsg.

It looks like it's trying to verify a file and but verfication failed so it will refuse to flash to the device. There is issues with trustzone which prevents the flashing of the tz partition.
But then how can I return it to true stock? I have it on stock but unlocked BL (4.4.4) and I can't find a stock fastboot flash for 4.4.4. I want the BL locked but I can't do that without returning to true stock.

You can flash this file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...o-remove-bootloader-unlocked-warning-t2794104 to get rid of BL unlock warning.
I've done that. But I just want it locked because I'm giving my phone to my nephew for his first phone. I'm getting the N6. He does not know how to root or anything and I don't want to keep it unlocked. He can't access the BL unlock code because it's in my email. He could reapply but he doesn't know how.

As long as he doesn't flash it, the unlocked BL won't be an issue. Try flashing the partitions manually besides the tz partition.
I can't lock it then. I guess it doesn't matter to you, but in the event he decides to try to root it or something all he has to do it flash a recovery. And he's careless. But I guess there's no way to relock it. ?
You can't flash 4.4.2 if you have an up-to-date bootloader.

Droid Maxx 4.4 to latest

I have an unlocked rooted 4.4 and need to update to the latest os and modem drivers.
What is the best way and how do I get tethering and root back after I do it?
Pay for sunshine get boot loader unlock flash moto x ROM that is modded
I already have it unlocked.
Where can I get the latest 4.4.4 rooted and can I flash it directly over the current rooted 4.4?
Also where can I get the latest modem drivers?
If you are boot loader unlocked you are already good to go, you can root with a quick flash of a custom recovery

This site was down for a while, but it seems to be back in a limited fashion right now.
You will need to reinstall TWRP and flash Superuser/SuperSU to regain root after flashing the files most likely. As for tethering, if you plan to stay with a Droid Maxx ROM, you can take a look at this link.

You have to flash that image with RSDLite if I recall correctly. If you leave the xml file the way it is, I believe it will wipe your TWRP and flash the stock recovery in the process, not positive as I haven't done it for a few months. You can reinstall TWRP and root afterwards.

All done, just manually flashed everything but the bootloader.
What are the exact steps?
I have an unlocked boot loader on my Droid Maxx. Currently phone is on 4.4.
Now I am interested in updating it to the latest OTA without losing root.
I understand that if I first install TWRP, I would not be able to take OTA updates. In that case I have to download the update files from the link above and flash via RSD Iite. Is that correct?
Is it not simpler for me to take all the OTA's first (and lose root in the process.) Then, I can still install TWRP and then install SuperSU?
So, yesterday I took four OTA updates and moved from 19.xx to the latest 4.4.4.
I am still rooted and with BL unlocked.
No TWRP ever installed.

Can't Boot into TWRP

I have a 6045I 5.5 and no matter how many times i flash twrp 2.8.7.0 I still boot into stock recovery. I am sure the flash was succesful because the command prompt told me it was but this keeps happening. I heard on some website that this is due to the latest update from alcatel (which I installed ). Does anyone know a method of flashing twrp that still works as of 3 weeks ago? ( this is when I got the phone and updated it). If not does anyone know any other rooting methods that still work as of this month? I've already tried king root and towel root with no success.
P.S : Yes bootloader is unlocked in case that's the first thing you were gonna ask.

Did you try to follow the rest of the fastboot instructions in the unlock bootloader /root thread? You can also flash TWRP image with flashify from the play store for free. That is the method I used to achieve success. Hope that helps. Good luck! :good:

Don't you need root for flashify? which is so stupid to me because I need to flash to root in the first place

Yes, you do need root. Follow the rest of the guide and you will have root. Then use Flashify to flash Unjustified's TWRP.
This device needs to be rooted via the guide for a no problems root, starting with the unlocking of the bootloader. If you are having problems, factory reset, install drivers from phone, then read and follow the guide. Then flash TWRP and go on with your setup.
Solved
I ran into the same issue with my 6045O but I spent time and went over the instructions again... as they were vague. You need to make sure you use the correct Fastboot code to permanently install TWRP on your device.
