Hello, I'm new to this forum.
I have a PC with Ubuntu 12.04 (now I installed the metapackage kubuntu-desktop) and a Motorola Defy+ MB526.
MyMotoBlur says it is 45.0.1390.MB526.Retail.en.IT and it is not the latest software version.
So, is it possible to root from Ubuntu? How?
Is it harmless? (no, I don't want to install custom roms, recovery, etc... just root to run Ubuntu with a chroot)
Is it possible to unroot then?
EDIT: used DoomLoord easy root with Windows, a Linux sport is possible.

Where can I find CWM, ROMS and rooting method for defy XT535?
I searched for rooting and got a method which uses sut lr 1.8.2 file, does that work for defy xt535?
And there was one cwm available with resolution or layout issue..
Does Xperia D and lewaos rom work for XT535?
It would really helpful if someone provides the link for the queries.
Thanks in advance!
Yes, patching your xt535 with sutlr enables it to be rooted by superoneclick.
But no, xperia D or any other roms here are mostly for defy mb525/defy+ mb526, no custom rom for xt535...yet.

Currently I'm running 4.4.0, will I need to downgrade to 4.2 if I want to use multiboot with ubuntu desktop?
Nope, flash the latest MultiROM and you are good to go.
Hey everyone,
I have a Galaxy Note 3 with stock 4.4.2 rom and root. I wish to use Drivedroid so I can boot images from my phone.
Is it possible to use the stock rom with a custom kernel from, say, cyanogenmod, X Note, etc. so I can use my phone as a cd drive and UMS device at the same time?
Or is anyone able the patch the stock kernel to allow UMS mode and maybe fast charging?
Any other info regarding the use of drivedroid on a stock rom with root would be helpful.

Hey guys,
i'm currently running on stock android 4.0.3 (kernel 2.6.39.4+) and i want to install a custom rom on my device. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/iconia-a500/general/epic-wip-omnirom-4-4-4-a500-a501-v18-t2872956)
what do i have to do?
i think i have to unlock the bootloader first (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619913)
then install a recovery (cwm 6.0.45, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583710)
and then flash the rom via cwm (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792022)
